Exploring Relationships Among Peripheral Amyloid Beta, Tau, Cytokines, Cognitive Function, and Psychosomatic Symptoms in Breast Cancer Survivors

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Objective: Accelerated brain aging has been proposed to explain cancer-related cognitive impairment, but empirical evidence for this relationship is lacking. The purpose of this study was to evaluate amyloid beta (Aβ) and tau, biomarkers of neurodegeneration, in relation to cognition in breast cancer survivors (BCSs). We explored relationships among peripheral concentrations of Aβ42, Aβ-40, tau, and cytokines; cognitive function; and psychosomatic symptoms in a cohort of BCSs post-chemotherapy. Methods: This secondary analysis of a cross-sectional study was conducted with 65 BCSs. Serum total Aβ-42, Aβ-40, and tau levels were measured with single molecule array technology. Cytokines (interleukin [IL]-6, tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-α, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor [GM-CSF], interferon [IFN]-g, IL-10, IL-12, IL-13, IL1-b, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-7, and IL-8) were simultaneously measured in serum using multiplex assays. Cognitive function was measured with five standardized neuropsychological tests and psychosomatic symptoms (stress, loneliness, anxiety, depressive symptoms, fatigue, sleep quality, and daytime sleepiness) with self-report questionnaires. Data analyses included correlations and random forest regression (RFR). Results: Significant correlations were identified among hip-to-waste ratio, number of treatment modalities, Aβ-42, Aβ-40, and tau levels ( rs = .27–.35, ps < .05). RFR modeling including Aβ-42, Aβ-40, tau, and cytokines as features explained significant variance in cognitive function ( R 2 = .71, F = 9.01, p < .0001) and psychosomatic symptoms ( R 2 = .74, F = 10.22, p < .0001). Conclusions: This study suggests that neurodegenerative biomarkers interact with cytokines to influence cognitive functioning and psychosomatic symptoms in BCSs following chemotherapy, but additional research is needed.
Nutritional Quality of Commercially Available Unbranded Cereal Snacks Consumed by School Children

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Snacking is considered as fourth meal of the day. Snacks are part of a healthy diet for children. School children identify snacks by quantity, cost and sensory attributes especially color and taste. The objective of the study was to evaluate the nutritional quality of unbranded cereal based snacks prepared from the bulk raw material which is obtained at lower price from wheat and other pulse milling industry. Ten unbranded cereal based snacks such as papadi, kodbale, ghate, sevchakli, berfi, mysorepak, milkpedha, benne biscuit, ragulla were collected from the whole sale shop and analyzed the nutrient composition of snacks. The proximate composition and micro nutrient content significantly varied at 1% level (p<0.01) between the snacks. The moisture, protein, fat, ash and crude fiber content ranged from 1.46 to 13.38, 1.24 to 15.16, 5.12 to 26.59, 0.26 to 4.52 and 0.49 to 3.76 g/100g respectively. The calcium, iron, copper, zinc and manganese content of snacks varied from 3.31 to 13.62, 69 to 4.91, 0.10 to 0.35, 0.99 to 2.23 and 0.43 to 2.53mg respectively. These snacks are meeting only 0.02 to 0.11%, 0.21 to 0.76% and 0.01 to 0.03% of recommended protein, calcium and iron requirement of school children for one rupee. Snacks are found to be rich in fat content and energy, contributing greater amount to the 1/4th of day's requirement of 3.5 to 18.4% and 4.1 to 12% respectively. The present studies suggest that the small scale snack industries should consider the nutritional guidelines for regulation of products for children to overcome the nutritional health problems. Snacks are not providing adequate nutrients required by the school children but, they contain high fat and calorie dense. Commercial snacks can enriched with addition of composite flour or addition of skim milk powder without increasing the cost of the product.
Parameterizations of Immiscible Two-Phase Flow in Porous Media

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

A fundamental variable characterizing immiscible two-phase flow in porous media is the wetting saturation, which is the ratio between the pore volume filled with wetting fluid and the total pore volume. More generally, this variable comes from a specific choice of coordinates on some underlying space, the domain of variables that can be used to express the volumetric flow rate. The underlying mathematical structure allows for the introduction of other variables containing the same information, but which are more convenient from a theoretical point of view. We introduce along these lines polar coordinates on this underlying space, where the angle plays a role similar to the wetting saturation. We derive relations between these new variables based on the Euler homogeneity theorem. We formulate these relations in a coordinate-free fashion using differential forms. Lastly, we discuss and interpret the co-moving velocity in terms of this coordinate-free representation.
A nonparametric test of independence between 2 variables

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

A nonparametric statistic, called the roughness of concomitant ranks, is proposed for testing whether 2 quantitative vectors are dependent. The new testing procedure is highly computationally efficient and simple, and exhibits competitive empirical performance in simulations and 2 microarray data analyses. We apply the new method to screen variables for high‐dimensional data analysis. For a low signal‐to‐noise ratio setting, we suggest the use of data binning to increase the power of the test. Simulation results show the fine performance of the proposed method with the existing screening methods.
DIVERSIFICATION OF ECONOMIC SITUATION OF HOUSEHOLDS

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

In Poland there is still a disparity within the scope of income and expenses of households, which is unfavorable to farm families and leads to a significant range of poverty in the country. Economic situation of households, particularly farmers, is affected by political and economic changes, started in Poland in the last decade of the previous century. The highest real decrease of income among the social and professional groups, took place in farmers' households. There is a significant income disparity between the people living on rural and urban area, which is unfavourable to rural population and between households maintaining agricultural holdings and without agricultural holding, which is unfavourable to the first group. Difficult economic situation in farm families is inter alia due to deterioration of the relation of prices in agriculture, decrease of agricultural production profitability, increase of the prices of means for production. The supply of agricultural raw materials exceeded the demand for them. Farms found it difficult to sell their products. The income structure has changed. The share of income from individual agricultural holdings decreased and income from non-agricultural work and social benefits increased. Poland's integration with EU and having included Polish agriculture in Common Agricultural Policy contributed to the improvement of economic situation of agricultural holdings, mainly as a result of funds inflow within direct payments. The amount of support depended on the size of the holding, therefore the majority of holdings in Poland, that is small holdings, did not benefit much.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The study was aimed to investigate the potential benefits of the Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment (the Trivedi Effect®) per se and Biofield Energy Healing treated novel test formulation in male Sprague Dawley rats for their antiaging activity by monitoring aging biomarkers such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), silent information regulator-1 (SIRT-1), and klotho protein. The test formulation was distributed into two parts. First part did not provide any Biofield Energy Treatment was denoted as the untreated sample, however the second part was received Biofield Energy Healing Treatment by a renowned Biofield Energy Healer, Mr. Mahendra Kumar Trivedi and defined as the Biofield Energy Treated sample. In this experiment, nine groups (n=10) were assigned, in which four were preventive maintenance groups. Among them, three groups of animals were also received Biofield Energy Healing Treatment per se (at day -15). BDNF was significantly increased by 25.83%, 19.35%, and 14.67% in the Biofield Energy Treated test formulation (G5), Biofield Energy Treatment per se at day -15 (G6), and Biofield Energy Treatment per se to animals plus Biofield Treated test formulation from day -15 (G8), respectively as compared to the disease control (G2) group. Moreover, expression of SIRT-1 protein was increased by 14.63% in the G5 group than the untreated test formulation (G4) group. Additionally, SIRT-1 activity was increased by 39.7%, 32.5%, 15.9%, and 136% in the G6, Biofield Energy Treated test formulation at day -15 (G7), G8, and Biofield Treatment per se (day -15) to animals plus untreated test formulation (G9) groups, respectively than the G4 group, while it was increased by 57.3% in the G9 group as compared to the G2 group. Besides, Klotho protein in kidney homogenate was significantly increased by 16.67% in the G5 group as compared to the G2 group. Altogether, the results showed a significant improvement of longevity mediators and antiaging biomarkers in the preventive maintenance groups. Therefore, results envisaged the significant slowdown of aging-related disorders and other complications in the preventive Biofield Energy Treatment group per se and/or Biofield Energy Treated Test formulation groups (viz. G6, G7, G8, and G9) comparatively with the disease control group and could be utilized against various aging-related disorders like Alzheimer's disease, hypertension, osteoporosis, cataracts, type 2 diabetes, cancer, etc. along with it could be used to extend the life-span, stress and immune-related disorders.

[Power spectral analysis of heart rate in qi deficiency and both qi and yin deficiency in patients with coronary heart disease].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Qi deficiency (QD) and both Qi and Yin deficiency (QYD) are most common in TCM classification of CHD patients with insufficiency syndrome. The authors used the power spectrum of spontaneous heart rate fluctuation (PSHF) to analyze the function of cardiac regulation in 30 QD patients and 27 QYD patients with CHD and compare with the control group of 30 cases for discussing the association between different TCM syndrome patterns and the function of cardiac nerve regulation. The main results were as follows: (1) Low-frequency areas of PSHF in QYD (34.15 +/- 11.60%) were significantly higher than those in QD group (26.24 +/- 11.57%) and the control group (27.80 +/- 11.65%). The L/H ratio in QYD (1.78 +/- 0.96) was significantly higher than those in QD (0.91 +/- 0.64) and the control group (0.98 +/- 0.58). The changes of PSHF in QYD could have some relations with the increasing of the activity of sympathetic nervous system. (2) The change in body posture was used as a load test to study cardiovascular regulation in different TCM patterns of insufficiency syndrome with CHD. In control group the L/H ratio increased with the change of body posture from 0.98 +/- 0.58 to 4.29 +/- 0.89 (P less than 0.001), while in QD group and QYD group increased from 0.91 +/- 0.64 to 1.67 +/- 0.83 (P less than 0.05) and 1.78 +/- 0.96 to 1.85 +/- 0.87 (P greater than 0.2) respectively. The results suggested that cardiovascular baroreceptor reflex was decreased in CHD patients, and QYD group was inferior to DQ group.
Exploring barriers to guideline implementation for prescription of surgical antibiotic prophylaxis in Nigeria

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Abstract Background In Nigeria, the prescription of surgical antibiotic prophylaxis for prevention of surgical site infection tends to be driven by local policy rather than by published guidelines (e.g. WHO and Sanford). Objectives To triangulate three datasets and understand key barriers to implementation using a behavioural science framework. Methods Surgeons (N = 94) from three teaching hospitals in Nigeria participated in an online survey and in focus group discussions about barriers to implementation. The theoretical domains framework (TDF) was used to structure question items and interview schedules. A subgroup (N = 20) piloted a gamified decision support app over the course of 6 months and reported barriers at the point of care. Results Knowledge of guidelines and intention to implement them in practice was high. Key barriers to implementation were related to environmental context and resources and concern over potential consequences of implementing recommendations within the Nigerian context applicable for similar settings in low-to-middle-income countries. Conclusions The environmental context and limited resource setting of Nigerian hospitals currently presents a significant barrier to implementation of WHO and Sanford guidelines. Research and data collected from the local context must directly inform the writing of future international guidelines to increase rates of implementation.
Ground deformations in the Island of Pantelleria (Italy): Insights into the dynamic of the current intereruptive period

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

The Island of Pantelleria, located between the coasts of Sicily (Italy) and Tunisia, is deforming due to volcanic and tectonic activity. Here we use electro‐optical distance meter, leveling, GPS, and differential interferometry synthetic aperture radar data to constrain the inter‐eruptive deformation pattern. We observe subsidence affecting the main caldera of Pantelleria, in the central southern sector of the island. Subsidence is mainly related to hydrothermal cooling and/or fluid withdrawal from a shallow (4 km below sea level) magma chamber located beneath the caldera. The relationships between the caldera area and the remnant part of the island are also investigated through a review of petrographic, geochemical, and structural data.

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

BACnet (Building Automation and Control networks) is a standard data communication protocol for building automation and control systems. The purpose of the BACnet network layer is to provide the means by which messages can be transmitted from one BACnet network to another regardless of the BACnet data link technology in use on that network. BACnet routers are devices that interconnect two or more BACnet networks to form a BACnet internet work and route messages between BACnet networks. In this study, the authors analyze the key technologies of BACnet router, propose a new algorithm named PRED to solve the congestion control problem of BACnet router and a software design program to put BACnet router into practice.
A Study on the Relationship between Problem Solving Skills and Multiple Intelligences of High School Students

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Problem solving is a complex process in which encountered problems are defeated as reaching a target and problem solving skills are developed in school years. And, intelligence is defined as the ability to solve problems or to create products being valued within one or more cultural settings. Therefore, the purpose of the present study is to examine the relationship between multiple intelligences and problem solving skills. The relational model was used in the current study. The research group included 181 female (48.39 %) and 193 male (51.61 %) students studying at Zubeyde Hanim Vocational and Technical Anatolian High School and Gazi Industrial Vocational High School. The Multiple Intelligences Inventory adapted in Turkish by Ozden (2003) and Problem Solving Inventory developed by Heppner and Peterson (1982) and adapted in Turkish by Sahin et al. (1993) were used as the data collection tool. Data were analyzed using the analysis of Pearson correlation. The findings indicated that there have been found some significant positive and negative correlations between variables.
