Exploring the factors contributing to increase in facility child births in Bangladesh between 2004 and 2017–2018

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Although Bangladesh has gained rapid improvement in births at health facilities, yet far behind to achieve the SDG target. Assessing the contribution of factors in increased use of delivery at facilities are important to demonstrate.To explore the determinants and their contribution in explaining increased use of facility child births in Bangladesh.Reproductive-aged women (15-49 years) of Bangladesh.We used the latest five rounds (2004, 2007, 2011, 2014, 2017-2018) of Bangladesh Demographic and Health Surveys (BDHSs). The regression based classical decomposition approach has been used to explore the determinants and their contribution in explaining the increased use of facility child birth.A sample of 26,686 reproductive-aged women were included in the analysis, 32.90% (8780) from the urban and 67.10% (17,906) from the rural area. We observed a 2.4-fold increase in delivery at facilities from 2004 to 2017-2018, in rural areas it is more than three times higher than the urban areas. The change in mean delivery at facilities is about 1.8 whereas, the predicted change is 1.4. In our full sample model antenatal care visits contribute the largest predicted change of 22.3%, wealth and education contributes 17.3% and 15.3% respectively. For the rural area health indicator (prenatal doctor visit) is the largest drivers contributing 42.7% of the predicted change, hereafter education, demography and wealth. However, in urban area education and health contributed equally 32.0% of the change followed by demography (26.3%) and wealth (9.7%). Demographic variables (maternal BMI, birth order, age at marriage) contributing more than two-thirds (41.2%) of the predicted change in the model without the health variables. All models showed more than 60.0% predictive power.Health sector interventions should focus both coverage and quality of maternal health care services to sustain steady improvements in child birth facilities.
Identification of multiple in vivo phosphorylation sites in rabbit myelin basic protein.

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

Myelin basic protein of rabbit brain (Mr = 18,200) was initially freed of the bulk of the nonphosphorylated species (mainly component 1) by Cm-cellulose chromatography at high pH. The remainder of the protein was subjected to peptic digestion at pH 6.00, which resulted in specific, essentially complete cleavage at several bonds (Phe-44--Phe-45, Phe-87--Phe-88, Leu-109--Ser-110, and Leu-151--Phe-152) and partial cleavage at the Tyr-14--Leu-15 bond. Gel filtration of the digest through Sephadex G-25 (fine) yielded three fractions, the first containing primarily peptides 1-44 and 45-87, the second peptides 15-44, 88-109, and 110-151, and the third peptides 1-14 and 152-168. Each fraction was chromatographed on Cm-cellulose at pH 8.2, and the resulting subfractions and partially purified peptides were analyzed for phosphoserine and phosphothreonine. Materials containing significant amounts of the phosphoamino acids were subsequently chromatographed on Cm-cellulose at pH 4.65, and the analyses for phosphoserine and phosphothreonine were repeated. The resulting purified peptic phosphopeptides were identified by amino acid analysis and tryptic peptide mapping. Comparison of the maps with those of the unphosphorylated counterparts located the tryptic phosphopeptides. These were recovered and their identities were established by amino acid analysis. In those cases where the phosphopeptide contained 2 Ser residues, the position of the phosphoserine was established by aminopeptidase M digestion. Five phosphorylation sites were found: Ser-7, Ser-56, Thr-96, Ser-113, and Ser-163. Only a small fraction of these sites was phosphorylated in the total basic protein, with values ranging from about 2 (ser-113) to 6% (Thr-96). With the possible exception of Ser-56, these sites are not the ones that have been reported to be phosphorylated in vitro by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.
Functional homogeneity of the non-mitochondrial Ca2+ pool in intact mouse lacrimal acinar cells.

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

In the absence of extracellular Ca2+, treatment of mouse lacrimal acinar cells with maximal concentrations of methacholine released Ca2+ from intracellular stores. No additional Ca2+ was mobilized by subsequent application of the intracellular Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor, thapsigargin, the stable inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate ((1,4,5)IP3) analog, inositol 2,4,5-trisphosphate ((2,4,5)IP3) (by microinjection), or the Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin. However, following prolonged activation of cells by methacholine in the presence of extracellular Ca2+, Ca2+ accumulated into a pool which was released by ionomycin but not by thapsigargin. This latter accumulation was blocked by prior microinjection of ruthenium red, indicating that it represents mitochondrial uptake. In saponin-permeabilized lacrimal cells, two Ca(2+)-sequestering pools were detected: (i) a ruthenium red-sensitive, thapsigargin-insensitive pool, presumed to be the mitochondria; and (ii) a ruthenium red-insensitive, thapsigargin-sensitive pool. Only the thapsigargin-sensitive pool accumulated Ca2+ at concentrations similar to those in unstimulated cells. The thapsigargin-sensitive Ca2+ pool was sensitive to (1,4,5)IP3; however, in contrast to findings in intact cells, only 44% of this pool was releasable by (1,4,5)IP3 or (2,4,5)IP3. These data indicate that, in intact lacrimal acinar cells, all exchangeable (ionomycin-sensitive) Ca2+ residues in a pool which responds homogeneously to agonists, (1,4,5)IP3, and thapsigargin. Prolonged elevation of [Ca2+]i results in Ca2+ accumulation into a second, ruthenium red-sensitive pool, presumably mitochondria. Finally, permeabilization of the cells fragments the non-mitochondrial pool, resulting in two pools, one sensitive and one insensitive to (1,4,5)IP3.
An integrated load balancing scheme based on SDN ASR algorithm

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

At present, the flow table of the SDN switch is stored in the costly Ternary Content Addressable Memory (TCAM) cache. Due to the cost problem, the number of flow tables that the SDN switch can store is extremely limited, which is far less than the number of traffic, so it is prone to overflow problem, and leads to network paralysis. That has become a bottleneck in restricting the processing capacity of the data center, and will become a weak point focused by attackers. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for the Alarm Switch Remove (ASR) that fully loads the flow table space in SDN, and further put forward an integrated load balancing scheme in SDN. Finally, we use Mininet to verify that the scheme can ease the SDN switch flow table overflow problem and increase network throughput.
Pattern of female genital tract malignancy in University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital Enugu

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: To evaluate the relative frequencies and stage at presentation of the various types of female genital cancers in Enugu and to compare that with other centres both within and outside Nigeria.\nMethods: This is a retrospective study covering a period of five years from 2005 - 2009. Data on female genital cancers were collected from patients' case notes from the gynaecology ward of University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital Enugu, the cancer registry and histopathology records from morbid anatomy department. The data were analysed using SPSS version 11 Statistical programme.\nResults: Relative frequency of the female genital tumours shows that cancer of the uterine cervix was the commonest with 77(65.8%). This was followed by ovarian cancer contributing 19(16.2%) , uterine cancer accounted for 15(12.8%), vulval (4.3%) and vaginal cancers(0.9%). The highest parity rate was amongst the women with cervical cancer. Fifty (65%) of the cervical cancer patients were grandmultiparous, 71.4% of cervical cancer patients presented at advanced stage (stages III and IV) while 82% of ovarian cancer patients presented at advanced stages.\nConclusion: Cervical cancer is the most common gynaecological cancer seen in University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital and most of them present in advanced stage of the disease with poor outcome. This is worrisome knowing that cancer of the uterine cervix is to some extent potentially preventable and can be diagnosed early with effective screening. There is need to create policies aimed at mandatory and free cervical cancer screening of every sexually active woman from 25years and above.
Pudendal Artery Syndrome Presenting as Ischemic Proctitis: Report of 3 Cases

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Ischemic proctitis due to pudendal artery syndrome is described in 3 cases. The patients showed common clinical and investigative findings which included: anal pain and bleeding; strainodynia; tender, edematous and ulcerated rectal neck, as well as obliterated distal internal pudendal artery. Manifestations of pudendal neuropathy were also present. The inflammatory process was localized to the rectal neck. Bilateral internal pudendal artery obliteration with non visualization of the inferior rectal arteries is suggested to define proctitis as ischemic. Pudendal artery obstruction seems to result from levator subluxation and sagging which pulls on the pudendal vessels and nerve resulting in pudendal canal syndrome. Pudendal canal decompression achieved elimination of the symptoms and healing of the rectal neck lesions in the 3 cases. To our knowledge, the first 3 cases of ischemic proctitis caused by pudendal artery syndrome are reported here.
Volume Increase in Rat Adrenocortical Mitochondria by Single ACTH Administration. A Stereological Study

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Bach's theory on sphere size distribution has been applied to the quantitative analysis of changes in the mitochondrial population of the parenchymal cells in the zona fasciculata of the rat adrenal cortex at one hour after a single dose (4 I. U. per head) of ACTH administration. The three-dimensional reconstruction of the mitochondrial population has been performed on the data on diameters of the electron microscopic profiles of the mitochondria sampled at random. The volume for an averaged mitochondrion was 0.617μ3 in the intact control and was significantly increased in the ACTH-injected rats amounting to 0.841μ3. The size distribution histograms for the reconstructed mitochondrial population revealed a shift of mitochondria in the ACTH-injected rats to the larger. These quantitative stereological computations have clearly shown that there is a volume increase in those mitochondria referred to above under the influence of ACTH within one hour. Possible significance of the present findings has been discussed.

Regioselective One-Pot Synthesis, Biological Activity and Molecular Docking Studies of Novel Conjugates N-(p-Aryltriazolyl)-1,5-benzodiazepin-2-ones as Potent Antibacterial and Antifungal Agents

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Novel 1,2,3-triazolo-linked-1,5-benzodiazepinones were designed and synthesized via a Cu(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar alkyne-azide coupling reaction (CuAAC). The chemical structures of these compounds were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HMBC, HRMS, and elemental analysis. The compounds were screened for their in vitro antibacterial and antifungal activities. Several compounds exhibited good to moderate activities compared to those of established standard drugs. Furthermore, the binding interactions of these active analogs were confirmed through molecular docking.

The paper provides an analysis of the application of relevant legislation and will aim to explore complementarity, compatibility and possible exceptions to the applicability of those standards. Finally, the paper aims to identify practical and legal loopholes in the implementation of the human rights commitments and options for addressing these international legal problems.
Panic at the Picture Show: Southern Movie Theatre Culture and the Struggle to Desegregate

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This paper explores the complex desegregation process of movie theatres in the southern United States. Building off of historiography that investigates regulations of postwar teenage sexuality and recent scholarly work that acknowledges the link between sexuality and civil rights, I argue that movie theatres had a uniquely delayed desegregation process due to perceived sexual intrigue of the dark, private theatre space. Through analysis of drive-in and hardtop theatres, censorship of on-screen content, and youth involvement in desegregation, I contend that anxieties of interracial intimacy and unsupervised teenage sexuality produced this especially prolonged integration process.
Influence of salmon calcitonin on the analgesic effect of selective kappa-opioid agonist in mice.

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

In the present study the relationship between calcitonin and kappa-opioid system was analysed. The possibility that salmon calcitonin (S-CT) exerts analgesic activity in mice as well as the influence of salmon calcitonin on the analgesic effect of kappa-opioid agonist, U-50, 488H were examined. The writhing test in mice was used as analgesic test. S-CT given alone intraperitoneally at a high dose produced antinociceptive effect. S-CT given at a subanalgesic dose increased the antinociceptive effect of kappa-opioid agonist, U-50, 488H. The obtained results suggest that the increase in the effectiveness of kappa-opioid receptor agonist may be one of the mechanisms involved in the analgesia induced by salmon calcitonin.
La modernidad del pensamiento indigenista y el Instituto Nacional Indigenista de Colombia

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

A partir de la década de 1940 se desarrolló en América Latina la doctrina del indigenismo estatal promovido desde el primer Congreso Indigenista Interamericano realizado en 1940 en la ciudad de Pátzcuaro (México). Sus conclusiones alentaron a los gobiernos a crear institutos indigenistas nacionales con el fin de implementar un proyecto de aculturación dirigida que modernizara a los pueblos indígenas sacándolos de su primitivismo e integrándolos al progreso de sus sociedades nacionales. Los primeros antropólogos colombianos, formados en el Instituto Etnológico Nacional, junto con otros intelectuales indigenistas develaron cómo la desintegración de las comunidades indias descansaba en la política estatal que privatizaba sus territorios comunales; pues cuando los hacendados se apoderaron de sus antiguos territorios, estas comunidades fueron sometidas a condiciones de servidumbre agravando la ausencia de una política pública que resolviese sus graves problemas de salud, educación y bienestar social. Pero, diferenciándose por la forma de resolver el “problema indígena”, los miembros del Instituto Indigenista de Colombia dieron origen a diferentes corrientes de pensamiento que abrieron la discusión sobre la interpretación del lugar de los indígenas en el país y el posicionamiento de los intelectuales en la construcción de la nación, señalando el futuro derrotero de la antropología colombiana. Palabras clave: indigenismo, historia de la antropología, antropología colombiana, antropología latinoamericana. ABSTRACT Since the 1940’s, the state indigenism doctrine developed in Latin America, as promoted by the first Congreso Indigenista Interamericano, which was held in the city of Pátzcuaro (Mexico) in 1940. Its conclusions encouraged the governments to create National Indigenist Institutes with the purpose of introducing a project of directed acculturation, which would modernize indigenous people by taking them out from their primitivism and integrating them to the national society progress. The first Colombian anthropologist educated in the Instituto Etnológico Nacional, with some others indigenist intellectuals, highlighted how the disintegration of the indigenous communities had its origins in the state policies which privatized their communal territories as the hacendados were taking possession of them, subjecting indigenous people to slavery conditions in their own ancient territories and worsening the lack of a public policy that could solve their urgent problems in health, education and social welfare. But, by distinguishing themselves in the approach adopted to solve the “indigenous problem”, the members of the Instituto Indigenista de Colombia let several currents of thought to arise, which opened the debate about the interpretation of the place of indigenous people in Colombia and the role of intellectuals in the nation construction, pointing out the Colombian anthropology’s future course. Keywords: indigenism, history of anthropology, Colombian anthropology, Latin American anthropology.
Leading practices of Steiner school principals: a reflective practice perspective

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This article is based on the author’s autoethnographical research on leading practices of Steiner school principals over a period of major change and crisis in a Steiner school’s life. This research included the use of the theory of practice architectures to uncover unsustainable contradictions in Steiner schools which constrain the full promise of the educational approach as an engine room for social change and renewal. These contradictions include doubt and uncertainty about the role of the principal and of leadership itself; and the depth of the emotional load of the principal and teachers in holding the competing ideological and pedagogical tensions of the Steiner and broader educational policy environment. Maintaining the integrity of the higher purposes of Steiner education involves moving away from a leader-centric approach that does not fit well within the Steiner school ethos, to embrace capable, praxis-oriented leading practices which involve intentional hierarchy and healthy collective participation.
KNOWLEDGE, ATTITUDE AND PRACTICE OF MEAT HYGIENE AMONG SLAUGHTERHOUSE WORKERS AND MEAT TRADERS IN BOSASO DISTRICT PUNTLAND STATE OF SOMALIA

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Abstract Meat hygiene is essential for public health and food safety, particularly in developing countries where proper handling and sanitation practices are often inadequate. This study examines the knowledge, attitude, and practices of meat hygiene among slaughterhouse workers and meat traders in Bosaso District, Puntland State of Somalia. The research explores factors influencing hygiene standards, the prevalence of contamination risks, and the effectiveness of existing food safety regulations. Using a cross-sectional study design, data was collected through surveys and interviews with slaughterhouse workers, butchers, and meat traders. The findings indicate that while a majority of respondents recognize the importance of meat hygiene, gaps exist in proper handling, personal hygiene, and food safety practices. Key challenges identified include inadequate training, lack of awareness, and poor infrastructure in slaughterhouses and meat markets. Additionally, economic constraints and cultural practices contribute to inconsistencies in maintaining hygiene standards. The study underscores the urgent need for training programs, policy interventions, and improved regulatory enforcement to enhance meat hygiene practices. Recommendations include strengthening hygiene education, implementing regular inspections, and promoting the use of modern slaughtering and storage techniques. These findings provide valuable insights for policymakers, public health authorities, and stakeholders working to improve food safety and public health in Somalia.

Expert key selection impact on the MANETs' performance using probabilistic key management algorithm

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) have been turned into very attractive area of research in the duration of recent years, whereas security is the most challenging point that they undergo. Cryptography is an essential solution for providing security within MANETs. However, storing all keys in every node, if practically possible, is inefficient in large scale MANETs due to some limitations such as memory or process capability. This paper extends our previous idea which was a novel probabilistic key management algorithm that stores only a few randomly chosen keys instead of all ones. In this paper, several different scenarios are proposed for key selection in which they are more practical, and then, the impact of each scenario on the performance and security metrics is analyzed. Results show that the proposed scenarios can reduce the path length in addition to keeping the network highly connected.
The Nature of Science Assessment by Gifted Secondary School Students in Türkiye

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This research study aimed to assess the nature of science (NOS) understanding among students attending science and art centers in Türkiye. The study employed a case study design and a qualitative research method, focusing on 60 identified gifted middle school students at the Selçuklu Science and Art Center during the 2022-2023 academic year. The students' perspectives on the NOS were evaluated using the Nature of Science Evaluation Scale, and the collected data underwent descriptive analysis. The study's findings revealed that a majority of the gifted students demonstrated perspectives aligned with the NOS. However, many of these students' views regarding the role of scientists in shaping scientific knowledge did not align with the NOS. Additionally, the results indicated that students predominantly attributed the development of scientific knowledge to the observations made by scientists. These findings emphasize the significance of implementing targeted activities to enhance students' understanding of the NOS, potentially aligning their perspectives with the established principles of NOS.
