P-130 THE PREVALENCE OF STRESS AND BURN-OUT AMONG HEALTH CARE-PROFESIONNALS IN THE PREFECTURE OF MÉKNES CITY DURING COVID 19 PANDEMIC

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Abstract Introduction Psychiatric related diseases such as burnout and stress have recently begun to attract attention among health professionals espacialy during and in post pandemic period, our study aims to examine whether prevalence of burnout and stress are higher among community nurses and medical staff engaged in public health services of meknes city. Methods Our cross-sectional study involved 200 health workers in public hospitals working under stress during COVID 19 pandemic. A questionnaire was shared with participants during tow month. The degree of stress and burn out symptoms was assessed using the 14-item of perceived stress scale and the 23 items of the Maslach-burnout inventory. Results and discussion 60% were women. A considerable proportion of participants reported higher score of percieved stress (47%) and 43% of respondants are calssed with a higher score of burn-out. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that being married, and parent of children, and involved in intensive care units and in emergency services, were associated with a higher prevalence of stress and burnout. The Prevalence of burnout and stress are significantly elevated among nurses and medical stuff engaged during COVID19 pandemic Conclusion working in emergency services and during public health crisis appear to represent work environment factors contributing to stress and burnout.
Understanding Genre in a Collection of a Million Volumes, Interim Report

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

One of the main problems confronting distant reading is the scarcity of metadata about genre in large digital collections. Volume-level information is often missing, and volume labels aren't in any case sufficient to guide machine reading, since poems and plays (for instance) are often mixed in a single volume, preceded by a prose introduction and followed by an index. Our goal in this project was to show how literary scholars can use machine learning to select genre-specific collections from digital libraries. We've started by separating five broad categories that interest literary scholars: prose fiction, poetry (narrative and lyric), drama (including verse drama), prose nonfiction, and various forms of paratext. This report discusses assumptions about the nature of genre that underpin our approach, describes methods, and explains how to use the page-level map of genre we have generated. That map itself is also available through figshare, at http://dx.doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.1279201 (link below).

DERIVATION AND IMPLICATIONS OF A META‐ANALYTIC MATRIX INCORPORATING COGNITIVE ABILITY, ALTERNATIVE PREDICTORS, AND JOB PERFORMANCE

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

A variety of recent articles in the personnel selection literature have used analyses of meta‐analytically derived matrices to draw general conclusions for the field. The purpose of this article is to construct a matrix that incorporates as complete information as possible on the relationships among cognitive ability measures, three sets of alternative predictors, and job performance, We build upon a starting matrix used by Schmitt, Rodgers, Chan, Sheppard, and Jennings (1997). Mean differences, by race, for each of the measures and the potential for adverse impact of predictor composites are also considered. We demonstrate that the use of alternative predictors alone to predict job performance (in the absence of cognitive ability) lowers the potential for adverse impact. However, in contrast to recent claims, adverse impact continues to occur at many commonly used selection ratios. Future researchers are encouraged to use our matrix and to expand upon it as new primary research becomes available. We also report and reaffirm many methodological lessons along the way, including the many judgment calls that appear in an effort of this magnitude and a reminder that the field could benefit from even greater conceptual care regarding what is labeled an “alternative predictor.” Directions for future meta‐analyses and for future primary research activities are also derived.
Mass spectrometry for metabolic flux analysis

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Mass spectrometry in combination with tracer experiments based on 13C substrates can serve as a powerful tool for the modeling and analysis of intracellular fluxes and the investigation of biochemical networks. The theoretical background for the application of mass spectrometry to metabolic flux analysis is discussed. Mass spectrometry methods are especially useful to determine mass distribution of metabolites. Additional information gained from fragmentation of metabolites, e.g., by electron impact ionization, allows further localization of labeling positions, up to complete resolution of isotopomer pools. To effectively handle mass distributions in simulation experiments, a matrix based general methodology is formulated. The natural isotope distribution of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen in the target metabolites is considered by introduction of correction matrices. It is shown by simulation results for the central carbon metabolism that neglecting natural isotope distributions causes significant errors in intracellular flux distributions. By varying relative fluxes into pentosephosphate pathway and pyruvate carboxylation reaction, marked changes in the mass distributions of metabolites result, which are illustrated for pyruvate, oxaloacetate, and alpha-ketoglutarate. In addition mass distributions of metabolites are significantly influenced over a broad range by the degree of reversibility of transaldolase and transketolase reactions in the pentosephosphate pathway. The mass distribution of metabolites is very sensitive towards intracellular flux patterns and can be measured with high accuracy by routine mass spectrometry methods.

Study on Process Optimization and Flavor Quality of Non-fried Crisps of Agaricus Bisporus Based on Response Surface Method and GC-MS

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Aims: To optimize the processing technology of non-fried crisps of Agaricus bisporus and evaluate non-fried crisps of Agaricus bisporus flavor quality, providing a theoretical basis for developing healthy mushroom-based snack products. Study Design: Experimental design combining single-factor tests and response surface methodology (RSM), with additional flavor characterization and quality evaluation. Place and Duration of Study: This study was conducted from January 2025 to July 2025 at the Food Science and Engineering Laboratory of Hebei North University. Methodology: The effects of slice thickness, microwave power, baking time and temperature were investigated by single-factor experiments, and the process parameters were optimized by Box–Behnken RSM. Volatile components were analyzed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). ANOVA was performed on single-factor data, with P < 0.05 as the significance level. Results: The optimal conditions were a slice thickness of 2.5 mm, baking time of 40 min, baking temperature of 40 ℃, and microwave power of 1.5 kW, producing crisps with desirable texture and sensory acceptance. GC–MS identified 78 volatile compounds, mainly alcohols and aldehydes. Conclusion: The optimized technology enhanced the sensory and textural qualities of non-fried Agaricus bisporus crisps. Flavor formation was strongly associated with aldehydes and esters, demonstrating that RSM combined with GC–MS is effective for optimizing product quality and supporting the development of healthier mushroom-based snacks.

Targeted Therapy for HM1.24 (CD317) on Multiple Myeloma Cells

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Multiple myeloma (MM) still remains an incurable disease, at least because of the existence of cell-adhesion mediated drug-resistant MM cells and/or continuous recruitment of presumed MM cancer stem cell-like cells (CSCs). As a new alternative treatment modality, immunological approaches using monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and/or cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) are now attracting much attention as a novel strategy attacking MM cells. We have identified that HM1.24 [also known as bone marrow stromal cell antigen 2 (BST2) or CD317] is overexpressed on not only mature MM cells but also MM CSCs. We then have developed a humanized mAb to HM1.24 and defucosylated version of the mAb to adapt to clinical practice. Moreover, we have successfully induced HM1.24-specific CTLs against MM cells. The combination of these innovative therapeutic modalities may likely exert an anti-MM activity by evading the drug resistance mechanism and eliminating presumed CSCs in MM.
The TDT and other family-based tests for linkage disequilibrium and association.

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

The transmission/disequilibrium test (TDT) was introduced several years ago by Spielman et al. as a test for linkage between a complex disease and a genetic marker. The original intended use of the TDT was to test for linkage with a marker located near a candidate gene, in cases where disease association already had been found. However, even if prior evidence for association is absent, the TDT is valid and can be used to test any marker (or a set of markers) for which data are available from parents and one or more affected offspring. Other tests that focus on association itself - but that, like the TDT, are applied to data from nuclear families - also have been proposed. In addition, several papers have appeared recently that discuss extensions and properties of these tests and of the TDT. Since the aim of both the TDT and the association tests is to locate genes that contribute to disease susceptibility, a number of questions about their differences have arisen. In this review, we compare the properties of the TDT with those of family-based tests of association, and we comment on issues regarding the use of these tests. 22 refs., 2 tabs.
Evidence for the ultraviolet‐B (280–320 nm) radiation induced structural reorganization and damage of photosystem II polypeptides in isolated chloroplasts

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Direct evidence for the possible loss of photosystem II (PS II) activity in chloroplasts of Vigna sinensis L. cv. Walp after ultraviolet‐B (UV‐B, 280–320 nm) radiation treatment was provided by polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic analysis of PS II polypeptides. A 30 min UV‐B treatment of chloroplasts caused a 50% loss of PS II activity. The artificial electron donor. Mn 2+ failed to restore UV‐B radiation induced loss of PS II activity, while diphenyl carbazide (DPC) and NH 2 OH only partially restored activity. Such a loss in PS II activity was found to be primarily due to a loss of 23 and 33 kDa extrinsic polypeptides. UV‐B treatment induced the synthesis of a few polypeptides and a 29 kDa light‐harvesting chlorophyll protein.

Effect of surgical margin status and pathological tumor stage on tumor recurrence after open partial nephrectomy

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction. Th e surgical margin status and pathological tumor stage constitute important factors affecting tumor recurrence after partial nephrectomy.Aim. To assess the role of surgical margin status and pathological tumor stage in tumor recurrence after open partial nephrectomy.Materials and methods. Th e retrospective study included 904 kidney cancer patients who underwent open partial nephrectomy from 2010 to 2019.Results. Renal cell carcinoma was found in 796 (88.1 %) patients. A negative surgical margin was detected in 735 (92.3 %) cases. Pathological stages were distributed as follows: pT1aN0M0 — 530 (66.6 %); pT1bN0M0 — 239 (30.0 %); pT2aN0M0 — 22 (2.8 %); pТ3aN0M0 — 5 (0.6 %). Median follow-up was 72 months. Th e recurrence rate amounted to 5.9 % (43/735) for negative surgical margins and 6.6 % (4/61) for positive surgical margins. Positive and negative surgical margins showed no significant difference in the risk of tumor recurrence (p > 0.05). Depending on the pathological stage, the following tumor recurrence rates were observed: pT1aN0M0 — 4,9 % (26/530); pT1bN0M0 — 7.5 % (18/239); pT2aN0M0 — 9.1 % (2/22); pТ3aN0M0 — 20.0 % (1/5). Th e risk of cancer recurrence was significantly higher in pT1b than in pT1a (p < 0.05), as well as in pT2 than in pT1 (p < 0.05).Discussion. In this study, the presence of a positive surgical margin had no effect on the kidney cancer recurrence rate. However, the retrospective nature of the study and the low incidence of positive margins necessitate further study of this issue.Conclusions. An increase in pathological tumor stage significantly affects the risk of tumor recurrence. A significant difference in recurrence rates is observed between stages T1a and T1b, as well as between stages T1 and T2.
Being Muslims, Diasporic and Male: The Emergence of the ‘Perfect Muslim’ in the European Context

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

In the last four decades, studies on gender and Islam have been focused on women, investigating the construction of gender-differences under the religious, the political, and the sociological point of view. Masculinity, on the other hand, has been rarely analysed as a subject till recently, and is lagging behind studies on masculinity in the West. Most of the studies which do exist tend to analyse Muslim masculinity in relation to homosexuality or to deviance – terrorism, fundamentalism, physical violence in private and public sphere – supporting the social constructionist perspective, assuming men are not born, but made within cultural, political, economic contexts – aims to address those factors influencing the emergence of model of the perfect Muslim male, in the framework of the building of European Islam. The focus of the chapter is on religious factors, whose relevance is usually underexplored in studies on contemporary masculinity.
Does Missed Nursing Care Predict Job Satisfaction?

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

This study explores the impact of missed nursing care (required patient care that is omitted) on job satisfaction of nursing personnel. Data from 3,135 registered nurses (RNs) and 939 nursing assistants (NAs) on 110 patient care units in ten midwestern hospitals revealed that nursing staff who perceived less missed nursing care on the patient care unit where they work are more satisfied in their current position and occupation. Perceptions of staffing adequacy also significantly predicted both satisfaction variables. Focused interventions aimed at decreasing missed care and ensuring staffing adequacy are needed to improve job satisfaction and patient care.
A Collaborative Approach to Improving Door-to-Needle Times in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Background: Stroke remains a leading cause of disability and caregiver dependency in the United States. Alteplase is the only FDA approved drug to treat acute ischemic stroke (AIS). The benefits of alteplaseinclude improved functional outcome and reduction in dependency or disability, but these benefits are time dependent. National guidelines recommend a 60 minute door-to- needle (DTN) time for alteplase administrations for patients with AIS. Purpose: The purpose of this project is to establish a collaborative and seamless process that enables timely triage, diagnostic assessment, and treatment of a patient with AIS. The goal of this project was to achieve a DTN within 60 minutes of hospital arrival in at least 50 percent ofeligible patients to receive alteplase. Methods: A retrospective data review of stroke protocol applications to alteplase-eligible patients in the emergency department (ED) from 2014 to 2016 was performed. Data were gathered through the organization’s electronic medical record to evaluate time intervals from patient arrival to alteplase administration. A review of measurable and immeasurable initiatives designed to achieve DTN within 60 minutes was conducted. External data were obtainedfrom the GetWithThe Guidelines (GWTG) StrokeRegistry. Results Summary: From 2014 to 2016 DTN time within 60 minutes of hospital arrival for alteplase eligible patients averaged 45percent. For 2016, the average was 40 percent. This project highlighted that while process measures are critical to achieving the desired DTN time goal, other incalculable issues such as ED physician’s comfort with alteplase therapy, patient education and other factors can have a major influence on performance. Conclusion: Despite numerous efforts, the organizationfailed to achieve a DTN time within 60 minutes of hospital arrival for alteplase eligible patients in 50 percent of cases. Achieving an acceptable DTN time requires a complex clinical process that involves a high-performing, cross-functional team. Achieving a DTN time within 60 minutes in stroke care requiresin-depth analysis of bothmeasurable process metrics and other non-measurable factors. Presentation: 29:19
Comparison of stress distribution around vertical and angled implants with finite element analysis

Field: Dentistry (Health Sciences)

The distribution of stress around implants placed in the first molar region of the mandible was biomechanically analyzed in a two-dimensional mathematical model. Two types of implants, vertical and angled, were subjected to a vertical load of 100 N and a horizontal load of 50 N in turn. The magnitudes and contours of compressive and tensile stress within the surrounding bone were determined. For the sake of comparison, maximal compressive stress and maximal tensile stress at the surrounding bone were calculated. There were no measurable differences in stress values and contours when a horizontal load was applied to the vertical and angled implants. However, with the vertical loading, the compressive stress values were five times higher around the cervical region of the angled implant than around the same area in the vertical implant.
Modelling the drivers of the spread of Plasmodium falciparum hrp2 gene deletions in sub-Saharan Africa

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) have transformed malaria diagnosis. The most prevalent P. falciparum RDTs detect histidine-rich protein 2 (PfHRP2). However, pfhrp2 gene deletions yielding false-negative RDTs, first reported in South America in 2010, have been confirmed in Africa and Asia. We developed a mathematical model to explore the potential for RDT-led diagnosis to drive selection of pfhrp2-deleted parasites. Low malaria prevalence and high frequencies of people seeking treatment resulted in the greatest selection pressure. Calibrating our model against confirmed pfhrp2-deletions in the Democratic Republic of Congo, we estimate a starting frequency of 6% pfhrp2-deletion prior to RDT introduction. Furthermore, the patterns observed necessitate a degree of selection driven by the introduction of PfHRP2-based RDT-guided treatment. Combining this with parasite prevalence and treatment coverage estimates, we map the model-predicted spread of pfhrp2-deletion, and identify the geographic regions in which surveillance for pfhrp2-deletion should be prioritised.

Brain biopsy in tuberculoma

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

In developing countries, 5 to 8% of the space-occupying lesions of the central nervous system are tuberculomas. Diagnosis can be difficult in the absence of extracranial tuberculosis; computed tomography is suggestive only. To assess the value of brain biopsies in tuberculomas, the records of 15 patients aged 6 to 80 years were reviewed. Histological confirmation was obtained in 15 patients, and acid-fast bacilli were cultured from 12 patients. Intracranial hypertension was the principal sign in 11 patients; other neurological signs were related to the location of the tuberculoma. One patient had evidence of extracranial tuberculosis. Biopsy-related complications consisted of an epidural hematoma in 1 patient and hydrocephalus in another; both required additional surgery. One case of tuberculous meningitis was probably related to surgery and poor drug compliance. There was no postoperative mortality. Thirteen patients (2 were lost to follow-up) were cured after an average of 16 months of antituberculous therapy. It was concluded that the brain biopsy is useful in diagnosing tuberculoma but that there is some associated risk. (Neurosurgery 28:405-409, 1991)
Designing a biomimetic model of non-linear elastic safety mechanism for collaborative robots

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Making collaborative robots physically interact with human requires to solve some technical issues of safety. This work presents a new methodological approach to define a mechanical model of force-deformation response for biologically inspired safety mechanisms. A nonlinear Hunt-Crossley based parametric model is proposed; its parameters are designed by an optimal approach balancing safety criteria with a metrological performance criterion. A particular attention is paid on the safety bounds so that they are not overly conservatives. The resulting optimal parameters show an excellent minimization of the ojective function while ensuring the safety conditions.
