Predictors of teacher-rated social problems in children with ADHD and children with LD.

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The present study investigates the incremental effects of attention problems, externalizing and internalizing problems and stressful life events in predicting teacher-rated social problems in children with ADHD, and separately, in children with LD. Multiple hierarchical regression models determined the unique contribution of each predictor with the order arranged accordingly to its theoretical importance to social impairment. Preliminary analysis indicated that children with ADHD did not suffer significantly more social problems than children with LD. For children with ADHD, externalizing and internalizing problems each contributed uniquely to social impairment. However, stressful life events was not a significant predictor. For children with LD, only internalizing problems and stressful life events contributed uniquely to social impairment, externalizing problems was not a significant predictor.
Hypoxia-reoxygenation exacerbated tumor cell adherence to endothelial cell mediated by platelet

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background and purpose:Adherence to platelets facilitates tumor cell metastasis but it is not clear whether platelets act as a mediator between tumor cells and endothelial cells or whether the hypoxia condition caused by tumor embolism enhances this process.The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of platelets and hypoxia-reoxygenation on tumor endothelial cell adhesion and the role of relevant adhesion molecules.Methods:Platelets and tumor cells were labeled with fluorescent dye,then the adhesion were detected using a fluorescence microscope and fluorescence plate reader or laser scanning confocal microscope.The relevant adhesion molecules were analyzed by an antibody blockage experiment.The tumor cells adhesion to vessels in vivo were analyzed on mouse mesenteric vessels.Results:Hypoxia-reoxygenation promoted the adhesion of platelets to 4 different types of tumor cells.This could have been blocked by the antibodies against adhesion molecules on the platelets surface.Platelets adherence to human liver sinusoidal endothelial cells(LSEC) were also enhanced by hypoxia-reoxygenation and could be blocked by anti-GPⅠb,anti-GPⅡb,anti-GPⅢa,anti-P-selectin and anti-CD31.Platelets increased the adhesion of tumor cells to LSEC,which could been blocked by antibodies against the adhesion molecules on the platelets.Confocal microscopy showed platelets present between tumor cells and LSEC.Animal experimentation indicated that tumor cell adherence to vessels was increased by platelets and further significantly enhanced when in a ischemia-reperfusion condition.Conclusion:Platelets could express that adhesion molecules adhered to both endothelial cells and tumor cells,and could also mediate the adhesion of tumor-endothelial cells.This adhesion could be enhanced through hypoxia-reoxygenation as well..
Association between circulating leptin and soluble receptors for tumor necrosis factor-alpha in hemodialysis patients.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

These findings suggested that serum leptin is independent of the TNF-alpha system, and is mainly correlated with body fat volume in HD patients. Elevation of circulating leptin may be associated with the disturbance of the serum lipid profile rather than malnutrition in patients receiving long-term HD.
Platelet Activation Markers in Patients with Peripheral Arterial Disease

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Summary Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is an indicator of diffuse atherosclerosis and is associated with a greatly increased incidence of coronary heart and cerebrovascular disease. Although several studies have assessed whether in vivo platelet activation takes place in patients with PVD, no data are available comparing different platelet function tests in this patient population. We have compared prospectively four tests for the measurement of in vivo platelet activation (plasma βTG, plasma PF4, intraplatelet (βTG and urinary excretion of 11-dehydro-TXB2) and one in vitro platelet function test (ADP-induced platelet aggregation) in 63 well-characterized patients with intermittent claudication and in 18 age- and sex- matched healthy volunteers. No statistically significant difference was found between patients and controls for plasma βTG (20.0 ± 11.8 vs. 18.8 ± 9.0 ng/ml, respectively), plasma PF4 (5.2 ± 2.9 vs. 6.3 ± 3.5 ng/ml), βTG/PF4 ratio (4.0 ± 2.9 vs. 3.6 ± 1.8), intraplatelet pTG (4503 ± 1482 vs. 4059 ± 1065 ng/ml), and threshold aggregatory concentration of ADP (1.7 ± 0.72 vs. 1.45 ± 0.56 μM). Urinary 11-dehydro-TXB2 was instead significantly higher in the PVD group (55.4 ± 27.5 vs. 26.7 ± 7.0 ng/h, p <0.001). Our study shows that urinary 11-dehydro-TXB2 is a more sensitive index of in vivo platelet activation than the measurement of either platelet specific proteins or of in vitro platelet aggregation in patients with PVD.
An Optimal Algorithm for Over-the-Air Reprogramming Protocol in WSNs

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The over-the-air reprogramming has played an important role in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), and has been widely researched. But the problems of low efficiency and high energy consumption have brought new challenges to the research. This paper presents an optimal algorithm, it is targeted to address the problem of relatively low efficiency and high energy consumption in over-the-air reprogramming in WSNs. Simulation results demonstrate that the optimal algorithm can improve the efficiency of over-the-air reprogramming in WSNs, and make the energy consumption in network not only lower but more balanced.
Peripheral adaptations to endurance training—Effect of active muscle mass

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether adaptations to endurance training are affected by active muscle mass during training. Eleven healthy subjects performed 5 weeks of one-legged knee extension (1-KE) training with both legs, separately. During the 1-KE workouts for one of the legs, arm cycling was added (1L2A), while the other leg only performed 1-KE (1L). During the training sessions, the 1-KE power output and session duration were equal for both legs. Whole-body oxygen uptake (V̇O2), adrenaline, and noradrenaline plasma concentrations were 112% ± 11%, 139% ± 144%, and 197% ± 101% higher during 1L2A than 1L, respectively. However, this did not affect the 1-KE training adaptations since submaximal O2-cost, heart rate and blood lactate concentration, maximal V̇O2, and power output all improved equally in both legs. This was supported by similar capillarization and concentration of oxidative enzymes in the legs after the training period. The present study therefore indicates that the size of active muscle mass per se during exercise does not affect adaptations to endurance training.
Data Balancing Methods on Radiographic Image Classification on Unbalance Dataset

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Covid-19 is a disease caused by a corona virus infection that infects the victim's respiratory tract. Covid-19 disease has a high infectious ability and if treated too late can result in death. Covid-19 has been a problem faced by everyone in the world since the end of 2019. Fast and accurate detection can save many lives. This study aims to develop a predictive model of COVID-19 detection based on radiographic images using a machine learning model from 4 categories of health status, namely positive covid, normal, lung opacity sufferers, and viral pneumonia sufferers. Deep learning is based on ResNet50 and MobileNetV2 and trials of undersampling and oversampling data balancing methods, and uses a confusion matrix for the evaluation process of model results. The model with the highest performance achieves 95.58% accuracy in the multi-class classification. Also based on the findings, we provide results from using a different data balancing approach or not using one at all.

Social value creation through digital activism in an online health community

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract The study explores how online health communities produce social value by uniting individuals under a common purpose, to advance healthcare in post‐conflict states. We selected MedicineAfrica – a digital platform known for creating social value by providing medical education in regions with under‐resourced healthcare systems – and drew on multiple data collection methods. We found that it is through a unique form of digital health activism that social value is created in this context. Drawing on a sociological understanding of digital health activism, we make the following contributions: First, we identify three types of non‐economic, social value: cognitive, professional and epistemic. Second, we indicate that social value creation is enabled by three emergent forms of digital health activism (ie, philanthropic, moral and reciprocal activity). Third, we elicit three enabling mechanisms explaining how these forms of activism are technically and socially afforded through the platform's connective capacity and emerging collective practices in tandem with its members' growing commitment. Our article contributes to the growing IS literature on digital activism by offering a framework that elucidates how digital health activism relates to social value creation. The article provides practical implications as to how platforms can enable sustainable online (health) communities.
Evaluation of biological control agents for mosquitoes control in artificial breeding places

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

To evaluate the entomological impact of chlorpyrifos-methyl, Bacillus thuringiensis, and Gambusia affinis on mosquitoes control in artificial breeding places. A Latin square design with 4 replicates was performed in order to evaluate the efficacy of chlorpyrifosmethyl, Bacillus thuringiensis, and Gambusia affinis on larva. The larvicide was applied at the dosage of 100 mg a.h/ha, Bacillus thuringiensis at the recommended dosage and 10 fishes per m2 were applied at 1×1 m2 artificial breeding sites. The larval densities for both anopheline and culicine were counted according to larvae /10 dippers prior and 24 h after application. All three control agents are effective for mosquito density reduction, and the difference between the three agents and the control is significant (P<0.05). There is also significant difference among chlorpyrifos-methyl, Bacillus thuringiensis and Gambusia affinis. Bacillus thuringiensis exhibited more reduction on mosquito larval density than fish and larvicide (P<0.05). Bacillus thuringiensis in comparison with two other agents is the appropriate method for larviciding in the breeding places. Although long term assessing for biological activities as well as monitoring and mapping of resistance is required.
Identity and the display ofmedagliein Renaissance and Baroque Europe

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Abstract ‘Great men may well lament’, Vespasiano da Bisticci bemoaned toward the end of the fifteenth century in Florence, ‘that ... there should be living no writers to record their deeds’, but portrait medals fused text, image, and allegory to overcome this perceived lacuna of written commemoration.1 Portrait medals embodied humanism in the Renaissance with exceptional efficiency and focus: they exalted the individual in indelible materials (thereby ensuring immortality) while harking back to classical Roman prototypes. Though medals held no monetary value, they became extremely effective forms of political and personal currency. Like prints, medals could be produced (either cast or struck) and reproduced in multiples, thus facilitating the dissemination of physical appearance, and symbolic character, to a potentially large audience.2 They served to court distant brides, were traded with friends, collected, and sometimes buried in the foundations of buildings. Medaglie—both coins and modern medals — contributed to the calculated exportation and exposition of one's public persona. A collection of such objects might be of documentary relevance to historians, or serve as an array of moral exemplars, or as inspiration to writers such as Petrarch to immerse themselves in a glorious Roman past. But a collection of medaglie was also a fashionable, displayable commodity that manifested the collector's conscious and conspicuous association with historical (sometimes familial) personalities, contemporary intellectual movements, and with the modern vogue for acquiring antiquities. As MarkJones has observed, ‘it can be argued that the correlation between status and propensity to commission a medal is as much a reflection of the function of medals as of social privilege or of socially conditioned attitudes towards display’.3

Subjective memory impairment in older adults: aetiology, salience and help seeking

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background Subjective memory impairment (SMI) is one of the key symptoms with which people with early cognitive impairment may present to health services. However, little research has investigated how older people view the symptom, its salience and how often help is sought. The objectives were to investigate (a) factors associated with SMI, (b) salience of SMI in comparison with other symptoms and (c) help seeking for SMI. Method A cross‐sectional survey was based in two Primary Care services in south London in which registered people aged 65+ were interviewed blind to the study objectives. Measurements included systematic ascertainment of SMI and other common symptoms/disorders. In each of these, concern and interference were quantified, and participants were asked to rank all reported symptoms/disorders in order of importance. Results Of 126 participants, any SMI was reported in 66.7%, and 31.0% reported SMI to a significant degree. SMI occupied a middling rank in terms of salience, being ranked as more concerning than angina, asthma, hypertension or a previous heart attack in around half of participants in whom these co‐occurred. However, only one participant with SMI had sought help from their GP, making it the least likely symptom to be reported. Conclusion Subjective memory impairment is common and appears to have functional and/or emotional significance for many older people. However, very few appear to seek medical attention for this symptom, which has implications for wider policy regarding prompt assessment and diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment or dementia.

Effect of Bio-NPK Consortia and Zinc on Growth and Yield of Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] in Inceptisol Soil

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

India is the 4th largest producer of soybean in the world. It is also instrumental in bringing the yellow revolution to the country. Out of nine oilseeds grown, soybean alone contributes nearly 25% of domestic vegetable oil production. A field experiment was conducted to investigate the impact of bio-NPK along with zinc on the growth and yield of soybean in kharif 2023at Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Dhule. The field experiment consisted of eight treatments viz., T1 (Absolute control), T2 [GRDF (50:75:45 N: P2O5: K2O kg ha-1 + 10 t FYM ha-1)], T3 (GRDF 100% + ZnSO4 @ 20 kg ha-1 and 4 ml bio-NPK consortia), T4 (GRDF 100% + ZnSO4 @ 20 kg ha-1 and 6 ml bio-NPK consortia), T5 (GRDF 100% + ZnSO4 @ 20 kg ha-1and 8 ml bio-NPK consortia), T6 (GRDF 75% + ZnSO4 @ 20 kg ha-1and 4 ml bio-NPK consortia), T7 (GRDF 75% + ZnSO4 @ 20 kg ha-1and 6 ml bio-NPK consortia), T8 (GRDF 75% + ZnSO4 @ 20 kg ha-1 and 8 ml bio-NPK consortia) were replicated thrice under randomized block design.The significantly highest effective nodule count at 45 DAS (26.05), total chlorophyll content at 30 and 60 DAS (3.194 and 2.383 mg g-1 respectively), number of pods plant-1 (94.71), grain and straw yield (29.62 q ha-1 and 44.43 q ha-1, respectively) were observed in the treatment (T5) which received GRDF 100% + ZnSO4 @ 20 kg ha-1and 8 ml bio-NPK consortia, followed by GRDF 100% + ZnSO4 @ 20 kg ha-1 and 6 ml bio-NPK consortia (T4). The significantly highest B: C ratio (2.92) was recorded in treatment (T5) received GRDF 100% + ZnSO4 @ 20 kg ha-1 and 8 ml bio-NPK consortia.
Does it (Re)pay to be Female? Considering Gender in Microfinance Loan Officer-Client Pairs

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

This paper examines the effect of the gender combination of client-loan officer pairs on loan repayment in an Ecuadorian microfinance institution. We show that among the four possible client-loan officer gender pairs i.e. female client-female loan officer, female client-male loan officer, male client-male loan officer and male client-female loan officer, the most favourable pairs in terms of repayment are those with female loan officers whereas the least favourable are those with male loan officers. We also show that repayment is even further enhanced for all client-loan officer pairs when the client’s previous loan officer was a woman. Our findings point to relational differences between male and female loan officers when interacting with microfinance clients, which is also highlighted by our qualitative insights from the field.
Advancements in metabolomics research in benign gallbladder diseases: A review

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The burgeoning field of metabolomics has piqued the interest of researchers in the context of benign gallbladder diseases, which include conditions such as gallbladder polyps, gallstones, and cholecystitis, which are common digestive system disorders. As metabolomics continues to advance, researchers have increasingly focused their attention on its applicability in the study of benign gallbladder diseases to provide new perspectives for diagnostic, therapeutic, and prognostic evaluation. This comprehensive review primarily describes the techniques of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance and their respective applications in the study of benign gallbladder disease. Metabolomics has made remarkable progress in various aspects of these diseases, ranging from early diagnosis, etiological research, assessment of disease progression and prognosis, and optimization of therapeutic strategies. However, challenges remain in the field of metabolomics in the study of benign gallbladder diseases. These include issues related to data processing and analysis, biomarker discovery and validation, interdisciplinary research integration, and the advancement of personalized medicine. This article attempts to summarize research findings to date, highlight future research directions, and provide a reference point for metabolomics research in benign gallbladder disease.
Effect of Planting Dates on the Growth, Yield and Quality of Three Cultivars of Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench)

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Abstract A field study was carried out during the spring season of 2017 in the fields of a farmer in the district of Habbaniyah, which is 70 km west of Baghdad, to study the effect of three planting dates (15 March, 1 April and 15 April) on the growth, yield and quality of three cultivars of sorghum (Babel, Warka and Rabeh). The implementation of the experiment was according to a randomized complete block design (R.C.B.D) with split-plot arrangement with three replications. The results of the experiment indicated that the cultivar Rabeh was superior in most of the studied traits such as leaf area (3968 cm 2 ), number of grains per head (2659.00 grains head -1 ), weight of grains per head (63.41 g) and grain yield (7.44 ton ha -1 ), while the Babel variety was superior in the percentage of protein (12.21%). As for planting dates, the date of April 1 was superior in most of the studied traits, such as leaf area (3635.33 cm 2 ), number of grains per head (2670.33 grains head -1 ), weight of grains per head (62.12 g), grain yield (7.55 ton ha -1 ) and the percentage of protein (11.49%).
Theoretical investigations on the layer-anion interaction in Mg–Al layered double hydroxides: Influence of the anion nature and layer composition

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

The influence of the anion nature and layer composition on the anion-layer interaction in Mg–Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs) is investigated using density functional theory. Changes in the strength of the anion-layer interaction are assessed calculating the potential energy surface (PES) associated to the interlayer anion (OH−/Cl−) in Mg–Al–OH and Mg–Al–Cl LDHs. The layer composition is varied changing the divalent to trivalent cation proportion (R). Mg–Al–OH is thus investigated with R = 2, 3, 3.5 and Mg–Al–Cl with R = 3. It is found that the PES for OH− in Mg–Al–OH/R = 3 presents wider energy basins and lower energy barriers than any other of the investigated compositions. It is shown that the latter is connected to the number of hydrogen bonds formed by the anions. These results have interesting implications for understanding the enhancement of the physicochemical properties of LDHs upon changing composition.
