Emotion Regulation Difficulties in Adolescents with ADHD and/or Dyslexia

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Objectives: ADHD is commonly associated with emotion regulation (ER) problems. Although around 10-45% of adolescents with ADHD also present with specific learning disorders such as dyslexia, studies on ER in dyslexia or comorbid cases of ADHD/dyslexia remain limited. The aim was to examine potential differences in ER abilities between 11 to 16-year-old adolescents diagnosed with ADHD, dyslexia as well as comorbid dyslexia/ADHD. Method: Preliminary data from an ongoing research project was analyzed for 3 diagnostic groups (AD(H)D: n=15; dyslexia: n=12; dyslexia/AD(H)D: n=9) paired on age (F<1, n.s.), gender (X2(2)=0.68, p=.71) and IQ (F<1, n.s.). ER was investigated experimentally using a frustration inducing task (Behavioral Indicator of Resiliency to Distress; BIRD; Lejuez et al., 2006) while assessing adolescents’ subjective positive and negative affect before and after the task (PANAS-C; Laurent et al., 1999). Additionally, adolescents completed questionnaires on alexithymia (AQC, Rieffe, Oosterveld & Terwogt, 2006) and difficulties in ER (DERS-SF; Kaufman et al., 2016). Results: Preliminary findings showed a significant effect of time (F(1,33)=6.46, p=.02, n2=.16) with higher negative affect reported after the task and a marginal diagnostic group effect (F(2,33)=3.05, p=.06, n2=.16) showing marginally higher negative affect for the comorbid group compared to the dyslexia group (p=.06). Marginally significant group differences (F(2, 33)=3.21, p=.05, n2=.16) also showed higher alexithymia scores for the comorbid group compared to the dyslexia group (p=.06) but alexithymia and post-task negative affect were not found to be correlated (r=.25, p=.13). No differences in self-reported ER difficulties were found (F(2,33)=2.52, p=.10, n2=.13) between the three diagnostic groups. Conclusion: These preliminary findings indicate that, compared to a single diagnosis of dyslexia, a dyslexia/ADHD comorbidity might potentially entail less developed ER skills. The ongoing data collection (bigger sample, control group) will help to further elucidate these tentative results in the future.
Epideictic Rhetoric and the Foundations of Politics

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

At least since the time of Plato’s writings, epideictic rhetoric has been criticized as deceptive, as epistemologically bankrupt, and as politically irrelevant. Aristotle himself emphasizes that the key ‘topic’of epideictic is amplification and stresses that the epideictic orator chiefly adds ‘size’( megethos ) and ‘beauty’( kallos ) to widely shared memories. This paper reinterprets Aristotle’s statements and argues that Aristotle’s account brings to light significant civic resources embodied in epideictic. A genuine statesman uses ceremonial speech to articulate and explain a regime’s underlying ethos and purposes; thus he defines the regime’s telos and orients the citizenry toward it. In that way, it is argued, epideictic oratory is not the trivial cousin of deliberative and judicial rhetoric, but rather the rhetorical genre whose essential function is to explain and defend the fundamental building blocks of the regime.
IMPROVED DEGRADATION TEST USING INVERSE GAUSSIAN PROCESS FOR SIMPLE STEP-STRESS MODEL

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

The accelerated Degradation testing (ADT) experiments are important technical methods in reliability studies. Different type of accelerating degradation models has developed with the time and can be used in different types of situations. However, it has become necessary for the manager to test how many numbers of unit should be tested at a particular stress level so that the cost of testing is less. Accelerated Degradation testing (ADT) is preferred to be used in mechanized industries to obtain the required information about the reliability of product components and materials in a short period of time. Accelerated test conditions involve higher than usual pressure, temperature, voltage, vibration or any other combination of them. Data collected at such accelerated conditions are extrapolated through a physically suitable statistical model to estimate the lifetime distribution at design condition stress the life data collected from the high stresses the need to be extrapolated to estimate the life distribution under the normal-use condition. A special class of the ADT is the step-stress testing which regularly increases the stress levels at some pre-fixed time points until the test unit fails. Such experiments allow the experimenter to run the test units at higher-than-usual stress conditions in order to secure failures more quickly. The Inverse Gaussian process is flexible in incorporating random effects and explanatory variables. The different types of models based on IG process are random drift model, random volatility model and random driftvolatility model. In this paper we have considered random drift model for the study on stochastic degradation models for simple step-stress model using inverse Gaussian process observed in degradation problems.
Moral Perception

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This chapter defends a conception of moral perception that can ground moral knowledge without positing a special mental faculty for detecting moral properties. On the view being proposed, it is possible to perceive moral properties visually, auditorially, or tactually. Moral properties, on this view, are grounded in base properties, and thus one perceives a moral property by perceiving the base properties that ground it. The chapter explains how in moral perception one's moral sensibility is phenomenally integrated with ordinary perception of properties to yield a "integrationist theory of moral perception."
A Qualitative Study of Current Rehab Practices for Muscular Dystrophies: Views and Experiences of Rehab Professionals

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Abstract Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations Individuals with adult-onset muscular dystrophies do not die from the disease but have progressive loss of occupational performance (OP) and quality of life. There is no consistent pathway for referral and access to rehab services. OTs are under-used, even though the greatest need is improvement in OP. The lack of guidelines makes outcomes inconsistent. To work, gene therapies require muscle bulk. OTs may train clients in muscle protection to maintain muscle, giving them a chance at a cure.

Integrating invasion and disease in the risk assessment of live bird trade

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

Abstract Aim International trade in plants and animals generates significant economic benefits. It also leads to substantial unintended impacts when introduced species become invasive, causing environmental disturbance or transmitting diseases that affect people, livestock, other wildlife or the environment. Policy responses are usually only implemented after these species become established and damages are already incurred. International agreements to control trade are likewise usually based on selection of species with known impacts. We aim to further develop quantitative invasive species risk assessment for bird imports and extend the tool to explicitly address disease threats. Location United States of America. Methods We use a two‐step approach for rapid risk assessment based on the expected biological risks due to both the environmental and health impact of a potentially invasive wildlife species in trade. We assess establishment probability based on a model informed by historical observations and then construct a model of emerging infectious disease threat based on economic and ecological characteristics of the exporting country. Results We illustrate how our rapid assessment tool can be used to identify high‐priority species for regulation based on a combination of the threat they pose for becoming established and vectoring emerging infectious diseases. Main conclusions Our approach can be executed for a species in a matter of days and is nested in an economic decision‐making framework for determining whether the biological risk is justified by trade benefits.
Magnetism of metastable phases: Band theory and epitaxy (invited)

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Total-energy band calculations are used to analyze the magnetic phases of metallic elements as functions of volume. The calculations utilize a fixed-spin-moment procedure, which is described and justified as a natural generalization of density-functional theory. This procedure finds the ground-state energies of electronic systems under two constraints, and hence determines the system energy as a function of two variables—volume and magnetic moment. The energy function is used to find the ferromagnetic phases and their ground-state properties, including bulk moduli and magnetic susceptibilities. The systems studied are fcc Fe, fcc Co, bcc Ni, fcc Pd, and bcc Mn, each of which undergoes a phase transition for small changes of the lattice constant from equilibrium (zero-pressure) values.
First Report of Wilt and Dieback on Pokeweed (Phytolacca decandra) Caused by Phytophthora nicotianae

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Pokeweed (Phytolacca decandra, synonym Phytolacca americana) is a root perennial plant that produces a succulent annual stem. In late June 2001, a severe dieback occurred on a group of pokeweed plants being grown as ornamentals in a garden in Rome. Disease symptoms consisted of leaf wilting followed by collapse of the plant. Stem collars and roots had dark brown-to-black water-soaked lesions. A wet rot was observed on plants with advanced disease symptoms. Isolations, from sections of roots and stems previously washed in running tap water, were made on PARBhy selective medium (10 mg of pimaricin, 250 mg of ampicillin [sodium salt], 10 mg of rifampicin, 50 mg of hymexazol, 15 mg of benomyl, 15 g of malt extract, and 20 g of agar in 1,000 ml of H2O) (2), followed by incubation at 20°C. A species of Phytophthora identified based on morphological and cultural characteristics (1) was isolated consistently from rotted roots and collars of diseased plants. All isolates produced papillate, spherical, ovoid to obturbinate, noncaducous sporangia and terminal and intercalary chlamydospores. Hyphal swellings with hyphal outgrowths were present. Observed characteristics were similar to those described for P. nicotianae. Isolates were mating type A2 with amphigynous antheridia in paired cultures with the A1 tester isolate of P. nicotianae. Identification was confirmed by comparing restriction fragment length polymorphism patterns of the internal transcribed spacer region of ribosomal DNA with those obtained from previously identified Phytophthora species. Pathogenicity tests were conducted on 10 2-month-old potted pokeweed plants. Inoculum was prepared by inoculating sterilized millet seeds moistened with V8 broth with plugs of mycelium and growing for 4 weeks. The inoculum was added to potting soil at 3% (wt/vol), and sporulation was induced by flooding the soil for 48 h. Five uninoculated plants were used as controls. Plants were maintained outdoors and assessed for symptoms within 2 months after inoculation. Wilting, root rot, and dark brown lesions on the collar developed on inoculated plants. The pathogen was reisolated from the inoculated plants and morphologically identical to the original isolates, which confirmed P. nicotianae as the causal agent of the disease. Few diseases have been reported on Phytolacca decandra. This species is not only an invasive weed, but is also cultivated as an ornamental and medicinal plant. In addition, antiviral (PAP) and antifungal (Pa-AFP) proteins that are used as a remedy for several human and plant infections have been extracted from the plant. To our knowledge, this is the first report of P. nicotianae on pokeweed. References: (1) D. C. Erwin and O. K. Ribeiro. Phytophthora Diseases Worldwide.

Power line image segmentation and extra matter recognition based on improved Otsu algorithm

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Extra matters are easy to lead to power lines inter phase short circuit which not only endanger the pedestrians and cars, but also seriously affect normal operation of the power system. Firstly, an improved Otsu algorithm based on morphological approach is proposed. Then a new filtering method according to power lines characteristic is presented to remove tiny noise. Finally, accuracy power line recognition is realized by Hough transform, and the extra matter on power line can be identified by comparing the number of tested power lines and the number of local maxima in Hough transfer accumulator. The result shows that this method can effectively recognize the extra matter on power lines, providing reliability for the power system.
The Presence and Severity of NAFLD are Associated With Cognitive Impairment and Hippocampal Damage

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Context Although cognitive impairment in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has received attention in recent years, little is known about detailed cognitive functions in histologically diagnosed individuals. Objective This study aimed to investigate the association of liver pathological changes with cognitive features and further explore the underlying brain manifestations. Methods and Patients We performed a cross-sectional study in 320 subjects who underwent liver biopsy. Among the enrolled participants, 225 underwent assessments of global cognition and cognitive subdomains. Furthermore, 70 individuals received functional magnetic resonance imaging scans for neuroimaging evaluations. The associations among liver histological features, brain alterations, and cognitive functions were evaluated using structural equation model. Results Compared with controls, patients with NAFLD had poorer immediate memory and delayed memory. Severe liver steatosis (odds ratio, 2.189; 95% CI, 1.020-4.699) and ballooning (OR, 3.655; 95% CI, 1.419-9.414) were related to a higher proportion of memory impairment. Structural magnetic resonance imaging showed that patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis exhibited volume loss in left hippocampus and its subregions of subiculum and presubiculum. Task-based magnetic resonance imaging showed that patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis had decreased left hippocampal activation. Path analysis demonstrated that higher NAFLD activity scores were associated with lower subiculum volume and reduced hippocampal activation, and such hippocampal damage contributed to lower delayed memory scores. Conclusions We are the first to report the presence and severity of NAFLD to be associated with an increased risk of memory impairment and hippocampal structural and functional abnormalities. These findings stress the significance of early cognitive evaluation in patients with NAFLD.
Effects of Anthraquinones Extracted from Rheum officinale on the Growth of Jian Carp

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

A total of 750 Jian Carp(Cyprinus carpio var.jian)were randomly divided into five groups.The control group was fed with basal diet,and the other treated groups were fed with basal diet supplemented with 0.5%,1.0%,2.0%,and 4.0% anthraquinones extracts,respectively.After 70 days of feeding,the growth,change of immunological indices,quantities of intestinal bacteria and fresh quality were investigated.The results showed that the weight gain,feed conversion efficiency,lysozyme activity,nitric oxide content,superoxide dismutase activity,available bacteria quantity of intestinal chyme were improved,and mortal fish rate,vibrios quantity of intestinal chyme were reduced in the fish treated with different doses of anthraquinones extracts.It was shown that lysozyme and superoxide dismutase activities in hepatopancreas were the highest,while malondialdehyde content in serum was the lowest in the 1.0% anthraquinones extract group;and the weight gain,nitric oxide content and superoxide dismutase activity in serum,and the intestinal Lactobacillus quantity were the highest in the 2.0% anthraquinones extract group.Supplementation of 1.0%-2.0% anthraquinones extracts also significantly increased the ether extract contents in fish muscle.So Supplementation of 1.0%-2.0% anthraquinones extracts can significantly improve the intestinal balance of microecology,promote immune ability,and enhance fish flesh quality and growth.
Influence of the electronic structure on the field electron emission from carbon nanotubes

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

The classical statistical-tunneling approach for the electron field emission is applied for carbon nanotubes. Detailed computations for differential emission currents reveal very close peak shapes for the armchair and zigzag geometries, thus suggesting there is very little influence of the form of the electronic energy dispersion relations on the bulk field emission currents. For carbon nanotubes of practical width, an approximate semianalytical procedure is developed to compute the differential and total emission currents for virtually any type of dispersion relations. After validation for the armchair and zigzag geometries, this procedure may be further simplified into the frame of a fictitious confined two-dimensional free electron model. Some conclusions are drawn from the comparison of the computed field emission currents (through the simplified procedure) with present experimental data and a fully analytical expression for the total bulk field emission current is obtained for practical use.
Functionally Crippled Nose

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Nasal obstruction is a common presenting symptom of patients seen by primary care physicians, otolaryngologists, and facial plastic surgeons. A variety of treatment strategies, both surgical and nonsurgical, have been used with success in improving nasal obstruction and quality of life. In a subset of patients, many of whom have either attempted these common treatment strategies or are intolerant of them, nasal obstruction remains a significant symptom. In these patients, there may be an identifiable problem, but it is simply not repairable or there is no identifiable anatomic issue. The management of these patients is discussed in this article, with an emphasis on a sensitive approach that takes into consideration a patient's mental health. While the need for diagnostic testing is generally not necessary for most cases of nasal obstruction, endoscopy and imaging should be considered in these patients. Validated patient-reported outcome measures are particularly helpful in providing an objective measure to a patient's frustrating symptoms. A variety of medications can be either contributory to the patient's symptoms or therapeutic if used appropriately. A variety of surgical interventions can also result in a functionally crippled nose and diagnoses including nasal valve stenosis, septal perforations, and empty nose syndrome are discussed. Importantly, further surgical interventions may not be appropriate if a deformity is minimal, and a surgeon should resist the temptation to proceed with surgery in those situations.
Why mindfulness at work matters – the ‘reboot’ for emotional intelligence development

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Purpose The paper aims to inspire practitioners to look critically at how and in what ways mindfulness can enhance emotional intelligence interventions. The paper also aims to provide practical and evidence-based guidance on what and how to design, implement and evaluate mindfulness-based emotional intelligence (EI) programs. Design/methodology/approach This paper adopts a critical, practitioner-perspective on mindfulness as it transitions into the workplace. The author draws on her own work in the field of EI practice and research and the experiences of peers who have implemented mindfulness-based interventions to offer insights on how to navigate the “mindfulness phenomenon” to enhance EI interventions. Findings A series of practical steps on how to implement organizational mindfulness-based interventions (O-MBIs), distilled from case studies, entitled “top ten tips from the field”. Research limitations/implications The author argues that whilst organizational scholars debate as to whether mindfulness is a topic worthy of interest, practitioners are already engaged and generating practitioner-led research. Practical implications Mindfulness is rapidly capturing development and learning practitioner attention, yet there is little empirical work that is initiated by practitioners and shared with practitioners. This paper goes some way to helping peers navigate what has been described as the “mindfulness phenomenon”. Social implications Many commentators have noted that we operate in a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) world. We are trapped in a “prison of busyness”, and the author argues that the popularity of mindfulness, not only in the workplace but more broadly in society, is indicative of the need to equip people to cope and a desire to create more compassionate and mindful organizations. Originality/value The paper summarizes themes captured in what has been described as a seminal book in the practitioner literature on mindfulness in the workplace. It is designed to provoke readers into looking critically at their existing EI programs and examine how and in what ways, a holistic, embodied practice (mindfulness) can hone the skills of attention, focus and presence. With the intention of facilitating kinder and more compassionate individuals and organizations, potentially leading to more mindful and ethical societies.

Bissubvilides A and B, Cembrane–Capnosane Heterodimers\nfrom the Soft Coral <i>Sarcophyton subviride</i>

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Two new biscembranoid-like compounds,\nbissubvilides A (<b>1</b>) and B (<b>2</b>), were isolated\ntogether with sarsolilide\nB (<b>3</b>), the proposed biogenetic precursor to <b>1</b>, from the soft coral <i>Sarcophyton subviride</i>. The\nstructures and absolute configurations were solved by spectroscopic\nanalysis and TDDFT/ECD and DFT/NMR calculations. The bissubvilides\nrepresent a novel biscembranoid-like skeleton presumed to derive from\na cembrane-type diene and a capnosane-type dienophile via a Diels–Alder\nreaction. These two molecules exerted no cytotoxicity against MG-63\nor A549 tumor cells or HuH7 tumor stem cells.
