Evaluation of Pregnancy Outcomes in Relation to Placenta Previa Location

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: Placenta previa, a condition where the placenta partially or completely covers the cervical os, is a significant cause of obstetric morbidity and mortality. The location of placenta previa plays a crucial role in determining maternal and neonatal outcomes, with central placenta previa often associated with more severe complications. Aim: This study aimed to evaluate pregnancy outcomes in relation to the location of placenta previa, specifically comparing maternal and neonatal outcomes across anterior, posterior, and central placenta previa locations. Methods: A total of 100 pregnant women diagnosed with placenta previa were enrolled. The participants were categorized based on placenta location: anterior (35%), posterior (45%), and central (20%). Maternal and neonatal outcomes, including mode of delivery, postpartum hemorrhage, blood transfusions, birth weight, Apgar scores, and NICU admissions, were recorded and analyzed using SPSS version 23.0. Results: Central placenta previa was associated with higher rates of maternal complications, including postpartum hemorrhage (35%) and blood transfusions (50%), compared to anterior and posterior locations. Neonates born to mothers with central placenta previa had lower mean birth weights (2.4 ± 0.4 kg) and higher NICU admission rates (20%) compared to those with anterior or posterior placenta previa. Statistical analysis revealed significant associations between central placenta previa and adverse maternal (p=0.03) and neonatal outcomes (p=0.04). Conclusion: The study demonstrates that the location of placenta previa significantly impacts pregnancy outcomes, with central placenta previa posing greater risks to both maternal and neonatal health. Early diagnosis and tailored management strategies are essential to mitigate these risks and improve outcomes. Recommendations: It is recommended that pregnancies complicated by central placenta previa receive heightened surveillance and individualized management plans to prevent severe complications. Further research is needed to refine clinical guidelines and optimize care for these high-risk pregnancies.
Internal Migration from a Russian Republic: The Everyday Experiences of Kalmyk Migrants in Moscow

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract This paper recounts the lived experiences of internal migrants in the Russian Federation, specifically those who have moved from the Republic of Kalmykia in the country’s southwest to the capital of Moscow. Recounting exposure to racism and xenophobia, challenges in the housing and employment markets, and negotiating an evolving city, informants offer grounded interpretations of migration within contemporary Russia. In part, the conversations that inform this paper focus on the everyday experiences of Kalmyk migrants in Russia and in turn aim to fill a gap in the existing academic literature on internal migration in Russia. Most migration in Russia is internal, yet we know relatively little about the diverse nature of the experiences of these migrants at their destinations.
Teleosemantics, Externalism, and the Content of Theoretical Concepts

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

In several works, Ruth Millikan (1998a, 2000, 2006) has developed a 'teleosemantic' theory of concepts. Millikan's theory has three explicit desiderata for concepts: wide scope, non-descriptionist content, and naturalism. I contend that Millikan's theory cannot fulfill all of these desiderata simultaneously. Theoretical concepts, such as those of chemistry and physics, fall under Millikan's intended scope, but I will argue that her theory cannot account for these concepts in a way that is compatible with both non-descriptionism and naturalism. In these cases, Millikan's view is subject to the traditional 'indeterminacy problem' for teleosemantic theories. This leaves the content of theoretical concepts indeterminate between a descriptionist and non-descriptionist content. Furthermore, this problem cannot be overcome without giving up the naturalism desideratum. I suggest that the scope of Millikan's theory should be limited. At best, the theory will be able to attribute naturalistic, non-descriptionist content to a smaller range of concepts.
Spatiotemporal Characteristics of Drought in Shanxi Province Based on SPEI

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

All Drought is one of the most complex natural disasters affecting agriculture, water resources, natural ecosystems and society. The paper used the drought index SPEI to quantify the drought events. Based on the average temperature and monthly rainfall data of 15 meteorological stations in Shanxi Province from 1957 to 2017, the SPEI index was calculated at different time scales, and the drought changes at different time scales were analyzed. In the year, the applicability of SPEI index to drought response in Shanxi Province was verified, and the distribution of drought spatial distribution in Shanxi Province was graphically displayed. The results showed that the SPEI index had good applicability to the drought scenario in Shanxi Province. The overall drought degree was higher in summer and summer, and the distribution of drought was uneven with seasonal variation. The degree of drought changed with time in 1960s-2010s, especially in 2000s.
Bovine Thyroid Microsomal Monoamine Oxidase

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

Monoamine oxidase has been isolated and purified from bovine thyroid microsomes. The general characteristics and steady-state kinetic behavior of the microsomal enzyme have been compared with those of the enzyme isolated from bovine thyroid mitochondria. The enzymes from the two sources exhibit a high degree of substrate specificity with respect to the amines oxidized. 3-Iodotyramine is a noncompetitive inhibitor of tyramine oxidation in the case of both the mitochondrial and microsomal enzymes. Product inhibition studies suggest that the enzymes from mitochondria and microsomes catalyze reactions which proceed by a similar pathway. In contrast to the mitochondrial enzyme, the enzyme isolated from microsomes is susceptible to inhibition by anions in the following order; [Formula: see text].

[A method of stable osteosynthesis in diaphyseal fractures of the femur].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The known methods of operative treatment of femur by means of intraosseous osteosynthesis, based on jamming of intraosseous structure in the bone, don't ensure sufficient level of the osteosynthesis stability that results in the secondary displacements. According to the method, proposed by the authors, a rod is introduced through the intercondylar fossa of the distal fractured fragment of femur (Imamaliyev, 1987) and is pierced through into the proximal fractured fragment of femur so that it perforates cortical layer of the bone in the region of greater trochanter with strong fixation in it. The structure is removed through the small incision in the area of the greater trochanter of femur. 35 patients have been operated according to this method. The remote results have been studied with 22 of them. Consolidation terms equal to 2.5-5 months. The secondary displacement has been noted with 4 patients with comminuted fractures.

A Comparison of Different Natural Groundwaters from Repository Sites—Corrosivity, Chemistry and Microbial Community

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

In Finland, the repositories for low and intermediate-level radioactive waste (LLW and ILW) will be situated at three different geographical locations in about 60 to 100 m deep granite bedrock where the waste and waste containers can be subjected to anoxic groundwater containing microbes. The composition of groundwater varies in terms of chemistry and microbial activity in different locations. In this study, groundwater from the three repository areas was analyzed in respect to chemistry and microbial community. Corrosion tendency of three steel grades, carbon steel AISI/SAE 1005 and stainless steels AISI 304 and 316L, was studied in these groundwater environments using electrochemical methods. As a reference, measurements were also performed in simulated groundwater without microbes. The measurements show that corrosivity of the water and thus the steels’ performance differs depending on water origin. In addition, the groundwater differed remarkably in their chemical composition as well as abundance and diversity of microbial community between the sites. Consequently, the local environment has to be considered when evaluating the long-term evolution of disposal concepts.
Modernizing health information technology: lessons from healthcare delivery systems

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Abstract Objective To identify recurrent themes, insights, and process recommendations from stakeholders in US organizations during the health information technology (HIT) modernization of an existing electronic health record (EHR) to a commercial-off-the-shelf product in both resource-plentiful settings and in a resource-constrained environment, the US Indian Health Service. Materials and Methods Thirteen qualitative interviews with stakeholders in various organizations were conducted about HIT modernization efforts. Using a Theory of Change framework, recurring themes were identified and analyzed. Results The interviewees emphasized the importance of organizational and process revision during modernization, converting historical data, and clinical and leadership involvement. HIT implementation required technological and infrastructure redesign, additional training, and workflow reconfiguration. Motivations for modernization included EHR usability dissatisfaction, revenue enhancements, and improved clinical operations. Decision-making strategies, primarily during HIT selection, included meetings with stakeholders. Successful modernization resulted in improvements in clinical operations, patient experience, and financial outlay. Discussion Existing implementation frameworks fail to provide experiential feedback, such as implementation challenges, like data conversion, regulatory, functionality, and interoperability requirements. Regardless of the healthcare environment, HIT modernization requires the engagement of leadership and end-users during HIT selection and through all stages of the implementation to prepare people, processes, and technology. Organizations must iteratively define the technological, infrastructure, organizational, and workflow changes required for a successful HIT modernization effort. Conclusions HIT modernization is an opportunity for organizational and technological change. Successful modernization requires a comprehensive, intentional, well-communicated, and multidisciplinary approach. Resource-constrained environments have the additional challenges of financial burdens, limited staffing, and unstable infrastructure.
On designing a new sound of the car-horn

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

People are exposed to noise from birth to death. Hearing is considered the first human sense to awaken and the earliest to fall asleep. Human auditory sense distinguishes about 400,000 different sounds and classifies them. Noise is generally referred as unwanted sound, and human hearing is especially susceptible to noise. There are many kinds of noise such as household noise, construction site noise, transportation noise, noise between floors, and so on. Transportation noise, in particular, may harm more people since the driver as well as the people on the street are influenced by the noise. This study introduces a new friendly car-horn sound based on driver's preference through a MOS test over five different sounds. The sound has been selected based on characteristics of human auditory sense, the brainwave test, stress-index, and perceptive responses from one hundred subjects who participated in the experiment. The selected sound can be utilized in any motor vehicles available at the market so that not only the drivers honking but also the pedestrians hearing the car-horn sound can live more comfortably without hearing any annoying noise from the streets.
Morphological expressions for DTCNN functions

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Morphology is a mathematical discipline that provides algebraic manipulation for images. Such a formal framework is very well suited to the design of discrete-time cellular neural networks (DTCNNs). It is shown how morphological expressions can be transformed by algebraic rules to provide an efficient DTCNN implementation for complex operations on images. In fact, most specialized DTCNNs published in literature prove to be straight morphological derivatives, as exemplified in the design of a public transport ticketing system.

Simulation of Particle-Based Knudsen Number Effects in Aerosols

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

This paper presents a particle approach to model the evolution of micron-sized water droplets injected into a high-temperature gas environment. The numerical approach takes into account the processes of droplet heating, desolvation, and coalescence. The modeling of droplet motion includes a slip flow correction to the continuum Stokes' expression for the drag force. A correction is incorporated to simulate kinetic effects in processes of mass transfer. The direct simulation Monte Carlo method is used to model droplet-droplet collisions. The approach is applied to calculate droplet behavior in a spatially uniform background gas and that of an argon inductively coupled plasma.

Deciphering the understanding of T cell epitopes is critical for vaccine development.As recognition of specific peptides bound to Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) class I molecules, cytotoxic T cells are activated.This is the major step to initiate of immune system response.Knowledge of the MHC specificity will enlighten the way of diagnosis, treatment of pathogens as well as peptide vaccine development.So far, a number of methods have been developed to predict MHC/peptide binding.In this paper, several encoding schemes were performed to predict MHC/peptide complexes.The tests have been carried out on comparatively large HLA-A and HLA-B allele peptide three binding datasets extracted from the Immune Epitope Database and Analysis resource (IEDB).Experimental results show OETMAP encoding technique leads to better classification performance than other amino acid encoding schemes on a standalone classifier.
The Effects of Perceived Discrimination and Acculturative Stress on Ethnic Minority Young Adult Self-Esteem and Anxiety

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

As emerging adults, minority college students are at increased risk for negative mental health outcomes and esteem issues. Factoring in acculturative stress and perceived discrimination exacerbates this risk (Gomez et al., 2011). How that discrimination is viewed and the adjustments made by the individual to become more acceptable to dominant culture affect the self-esteem of the individual (Hall et al., 2015). Previous research into acculturative stress and perceived discrimination rarely view mental health outcomes while also including self-esteem (Paukert et al., 2006; Wei et al, 2013). Relationships between these two factors provide insight into the mechanisms which affect psychological distress (Tonsing et al, 2016). The goal of the present study is to understand correlations among minority students in respect to levels of self-esteem and anxiety, due to acculturative stress and perceived discrimination. This study included approximately 35 college students, recruited from classes at a small liberal arts university in Northern California, as well as through Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. The four measures used to compare stressors and mental health outcomes were the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (Rosenberg, 1965), Beck Anxiety Inventory (Beck et al., 1988), Social, Attitudinal, Familial, and Environmental Acculturation Stress Scale-Short Version (Mena et al., 1983), and the Perceived Ethnic Discrimination Questionnaire-Community Version (Brondolo et al., 2005). In an increasingly socially stratified country, results are expected to support the idea that minority students with higher acculturative stress and perceived discrimination levels have lower self-esteem and more anxiety symptoms than minority students with lower stress and discrimination levels. This research gives insight into the inner experiences of minority college students, which will serve to increase our understanding of ways to improve the mental health outcomes and overall experience for college students.
Solid State Electrochromic Switchable Window Glazings

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Multilayer, solid state electrochromic coatings based on a-WO3 (amorphous W0.3) have been tested. A typical coating on glass consists of indium-tin oxide(520 nm), WO3 (410 nm), MgF2(170 nm) and gold (15 nm) all deposited by vacuum evaporation. Optical spectra and solar weighted, integrated transmission values are given for the component films and complete multilayer devices. Electrical characteristics and electro-optic responses are reported. Devices with MgF2 layers deposited at low pressures have high internal resistances and exhibit long term optical memories suitable for diurnal switching. The replacement of the gold electrode layer with an indium-tin oxide layer greatly increases the transmittance of the electrochromic coating stack (from solar weighted transmission of 22% up to 53%). Electrochromic coatings have promise for solar gain control windows, but further improvements in optical and electrical efficiencies are needed.
An Effective Scattering Analysis for Conducting Bodies at the Interior Resonances

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

It is well known that either the electric field integral equations or the magnetic field integral equations have been widely employed to analyze electromagnetic scattering of conducting bodies. At some discrete resonance frequencies, however, when E-field integral equations or H-field integral equations are applied to attack this problem, the solution to method-of-moments matrix will be nonunique or unstable. A new effective modal method, termed Inagaki mode method, is presented here to solve this problem. At the interior resonances, this modal method, based on electric field integral equations, is used to filter out resonance modes and therefore obtain the right scattering property. The modal method doesn't need any operation of matrix inversion and possesses the merits of clarity in concept and simplicity in computation. A good agreement is achieved between the calculated results and the results published in some literatures as given in an analytical analysis.
