Application of modified wavelet features and multi-class sphere SVM to pathological vocal detection

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

This paper researches the method of wavelet feature-vectors and multi-class support vector machines applied to pathological vocal detection, which extracts features of the pathological vocal based on continuous wavelet transformation and then classifies pathological vocal by multi - class support vector machine. In order to reduce computation complexity caused by using the standard support vector machines for multi-class classification, a new multi-class classification algorithm based on the idea of one-class classification is proposed. It can form a decision function for every single class sample and accordingly obtain the aim of classification based on maximum of decision function. Experimental results have shown that the pathological vocal detection system is feasible and applicable by the combination of multi-class SVM and wavelet feature-vectors.
Propeptide of carboxypeptidase Y provides a chaperone-like function as well as inhibition of the enzymatic activity.

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

The zymogen of the vacuolar carboxypeptidase Y from Saccharomyces cerevisiae was purified and characterized with respect to activation as well as refolding in vitro. The purified procarboxypeptidase Y has no detectable activity but can be efficiently activated by proteinase K from Tritirachium album. We used this method of activation as a tool for the investigation of refolding procarboxypeptidase Y in vitro. The proenzyme, denatured in 6 M guanidinium chloride, is renatured efficiently after dilution of the denaturant, whereas the mature enzyme regains little activity in the same procedure. Changes in intrinsic fluorescence reveal the mature enzyme to be considerably more stable than the proenzyme toward denaturation with guanidinium chloride. This suggests that the propeptide induces a metastable structure important for overcoming energy barriers that might otherwise obstruct a productive folding pathway. The relatively large number of charged amino acid residues and a high theoretical potential for alpha-helix formation in the carboxypeptidase Y propeptide suggest a structural similarity to a number of other propeptides and heat shock proteins.
A randomized controlled trial comparing interim acrylic prostheses with and without cast metal base for immediate loading of dental implants in the edentulous mandible

Field: Dentistry (Health Sciences)

Abstract Objectives This randomized controlled trial used resonance frequency analysis ( RFA ) to assess the effects of the presence or absence of a cast rigid bar splinting multiple implants in the stability of immediately loaded implants. Material and Methods Twenty‐nine edentulous patients were randomly divided into two groups: G1 with full‐arch implant‐fixed prostheses and G2 with multiple implant splinting via acrylic resin denture bases. All implants were immediately loaded. RFA measurements assessed implant stability at three different times (T0 – at baseline, T1 – 4 months, and T2 – 8 months. Wilcoxon and Friedman tests and a multivariate model with repeated measures for longitudinal data were used for statistical comparison (α = 0.05). Results Twenty‐nine patients were assessed (G1 = 15 and G2 = 14). Implant and prostheses survival rates were 100% for both groups after the 8‐month observation period and no significant differences in the mean ISQ values were found at the different implant stability assessment times ( P > 0.05). Conclusions The different splinting protocols did not appear to affect implant stability during the 8‐month observation period.
Growth and Yield Performance of Green Capsicum (Capsicum Annuum L.) As Influenced by Vermicompost Application Grown at Rooftop Of Chandpur Area

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

A pot experiment was conducted during rabi season during 2020-21 at a rooftop of Chandpur 150 MW Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCPP) Area in Chandpur Sadar upazila under Chandpur district to study the impact of different dosages of vermicompost (VC) on the growth and yield parameters of green capsicum plants (Capsicum annuum L.). It was laid out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications each of six treatments viz. T1: 0 ton VC ha-1 (control), T2: 2.5 ton VC ha-1, T3: 5 ton VC ha-1, T4: 7.5 ton VC ha-1, T5: 10 ton VC ha-1, and T6:15 ton VC ha-1. Results revealed that maximum plant height (38.53 cm), number of leaf plant-1 (80), and highest number of branches plant-1 (6) were recorded in T5 followed by T3. The highest values for rest of the growth and yield parameters were found from the plant receiving VC at the rate of 5 ton ha-1 (T3), such as, longest leaf per plant (12.84 cm), highest number of branches plant-1 (6), maximum girth (3.53 cm), maximum number of fruits plant-1(7), average fruit weight (44.75 g fruit-1), maximum weight of fresh (320.28 g fruits plant-1) and dry (4.43 g fruits plant-1); and maximum total fresh (109.40 g) and dry weight (21.03 g) of plants. Highest fruit length (18.97 cm) and diameter of fruit (7.30 cm) were recorded in T5 and T4, respectively. Almost all of the growth and yield parameters were observed lowest in control (T1). Study indicates that supreme dose of VC 15 ton ha-1 in T6 yielded lower performance compare to 10 and 5 ton VC ha- 1. Considering the overall performance, it may be concluded that vegetative growth and yielding capacity of green capsicum plants can be boosted up by applying vermicompost at the rate of 10 ton ha-1 and 5 ton ha-1, respectively. This new information will be beneficial for growers, researcher and relevant workers. J. Biodivers. Conserv. Bioresour. Manag. 2021, 7(2): 13-22

ERK1 and ERK2 involvement in human Mesenchymal Stem Cells adipogenic differentiation

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

Aims In order to develop therapeutic strategies to control obesity and the related pathologies, it is very important to deepen the knowledge of adipocytes biology and the mechanisms that control adipogenesis. In the present work we have studied the molecular mechanisms at the basis of the adipocytes differentiation using the human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hMSCs), undifferentiated stem cells present in the bone marrow that are the physiological precursors of adipocytes in the organism. In particular we have focused our attention on the MAPKinases ERK1 and ERK2, that are involved in many biological and cellular processes. Methods hMSCs, obtained from iliac crest bone marrow, were induced to adipogenic differentiation by treatment with Adipogenic Induction Medium for 10 days (determination phase), then replaced with Adipogenic Maintenance Medium until the end of treatment at day 28 (terminal differentiation phase). hMSC adipogenic differentiation was evaluated by morphological and molecular techniques. Control cells were represented by hMSCs cultured in absence of adipogenic supplements. ERK1 and ERK2 expression and phosphorylation were evaluated by immunoblotting experiments. The specific ERK inhibitor U0126 was added to the adipogenic medium at different times during the adipogenic differentiation protocol. Results hMSC treated with adipogenic differentiation protocol showed lipid droplets that increased in number and size during the whole differentiation period. In treated hMSC both ERK1 and ERK2 phosphorylation was reduced in comparison to control hMSCs, but time and intensity of these reductions were different for the two isoforms. A decrease of the total amount of ERK1 was also observed. The presence of U0126 during the whole differentiation period hampered the adipogenic differentiation of hMSCs, as very few hMSCs showed the appearance of lipid droplets that were reduced both in number and size. When U0126 was administered only during the determination phase the number of hMSCs recruited in the differentiation program was reduced, while when U0126 was administered only in the terminal differentiation phase, hMSCs did not acquired a mature adipocytic phenotype. Conclusion In this work we demonstrate that ERK1 and ERK2 are important for hMSC adipogenic differentiation. Our results suggest that ERK1 and ERK2 play a key role in determining how many cells enter into the adipogenic differentiation program and acquire the phenotipycal and molecular characteristics of mature adipocytes.
Florence Nightingale and the Irish Uncanny

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This article characterizes Florence Nightingale's nursing reform as the cleaning of the Victorian home which she found unheimlich. She laid strong emphasis on an improvement in the hygiene of the house as a significant part of nursing, and, by establishing the nurse as a new occupation, gave the surplus of unmarried women a decent means of escape from the stifling domesticity in which they had been helplessly trapped. Her nursing at once reformed and reinforced the traditional role of woman as a domestic figure, for she created the nurse as a mother figure in charge of the home space. In the Crimean War, Nightingale successfully nursed the idea of England as Home by attending to the dying soldiers at the front. Her crusade to nurse the unhomely space into a home, however, dismissed one uncanny place inside the imperial Home that needed urgent nursing, that is, Ireland, which had been suffering from the Great Famine and its aftermath. Nightingale confronted Irish Sisters of Mercy, who came to the Crimea to save the lives and souls of the Irish soldiers. These Irish nuns not only embodied the memories of the Famine which they had recently relieved, but also threatened Nightingale's single female authority by representing Ireland as a nation through their equally motherly presence. The service of the Irish nuns in the Crimean War was erased from the myth of the Lady with the Lamp. Nightingale could establish herself as an authoritative female subject and assumed the voice of England only by suppressing another female voice which challenged England's competence in Home management.
Liposuction Assisted Abdominoplasty: An Enhanced Abdominoplasty Technique

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: Combining liposuction with abdominoplasties was considered risky during the 1980s and 1990s due to reports of increased complications rates and the belief that liposuction posed a danger to flap circulation. However, the corresponding author’s intraoperative observations at that time, that liposuction preserved all but the smallest blood vessels, negated the prevailing opinions that liposuction increased the risk to flap circulation, and in October 1996, liposuction assisted abdominoplasty (LAA) was first performed. Thereafter, LAA was honed to become a lipoabdominoplasty technique—not merely a combination of liposuction and abdominoplasty, a technique that utilizes liposuction as a dissection tool—hydro- and lipo-dissection, to dissect free and separate the abdominal flap from the deep fascia. Enhanced flap excursion could be demonstrated intraoperatively by selectively transecting the skin retaining ligaments and limiting liposuction to the flap’s undersurface, created a vascular lining layer rich in anastomosing blood vessels that provided a rich blood supply to the flap, enabling increased flap excursion. Methods: Five ninety-three consecutive ambulatory LAAs with circumferential torso liposuction and other area liposuction are presented and the surgical technique is illustrated and discussed. Results: There were no serious adverse events, anesthesia complications, hospital transfers, no venous thromboembolism or postoperative respiratory complications in the 593 cases. Patient satisfaction was high, and the results compared favorably with abdominoplasty results published in the scientific literature. Conclusions: LAA is a safe and effective abdominoplasty technique. Extensive clinical experience with LAA suggests longer flap excursion and improved perfusion. It routinely incorporates circumferential torso and other areas liposuction and has commonly included buttock fat grafting.
Feasibility Demonstration of Wide-Field Fourier-Spectroscopic-Imaging in Infrared Region

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

We are aiming at the realization of living-environment sensor and non-invasive blood-sugar sensor by the proposed imaging type 2-D Fourier spectroscopy. This method is based on the phase-shift interference between the object beams. As a result, even if the object beams are spatially incoherent, we can observe the phase-shift interference phenomena. In the near infrared region, we can obtain the high-contrast blood vessel image of mouse's ear in the deeper part by InGaAs camera. Furthermore, in the mid-infrared region, we have successfully measured the radiation spectroscopic-imaging with wild field of view by the infrared module, such as the house plants.
Assessment of Technical Quality of Online Video Using Visualization in Place of Experience

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

This thesis introduces a new method to measure subjective ratings of technical quality (TQ) in disrupted video (DV). Current measurement methods are subject to extraneous factors such as delays introduced by the streaming software/hardware and the impact of video content. The proposed method is designed to supplement current methods by avoiding the confounding effects of content on TQ ratings and by reducing the time and effort necessary to run experiments. The new method replaces actual video with images representative of videos that contain various disruptions. In the research reported in this thesis, I ran an experiment with 37 participants to explore the viability of assessing TQ using visualizations instead of actual videos. The experiment compared ratings made after actually watching videos that varied in TQ versus ratings made after viewing the TQ visualizations, without actually seeing corresponding videos with associated impairments or failures. The results of the experiment showed that, with appropriate training, ratings of TQ made, after viewing the visualizations only, were similar to TQ ratings made after actually watching videos with corresponding impairments or failures.
The cytoskeleton and proliferation of melanoma cells under hyperthermal conditions. A correlative double immunolabelling study.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Hyperthermia provides a potent therapeutical tool of cancer treatment, the cell biological effects of which are fairly understood. In the present study we applied hyperthermal shocks of 42 degrees C and 44 degrees C to human melanoma cells under tissue culture conditions. The integrity of the microtubular (mT) system and rate of DNA replication was assessed by indirect immunofluorescence using antibodies to tubulin as an mT marker and to BrdU as an indicator for DNA replication. Through this approach we obtained evidence that heat (44 degrees C for 60 min) exerts a profound damaging effect on the mT system accompanied by a change in the phenotypical appearance of melanoma cells. DNA replication, however, was still in progress in a significant number of heavily afflicted cells. From these data we conclude that a therapeutic regiment combining hyperthermia and mT inhibitors might prove useful in the treatment of human melanomas.

The Idaho Science Talent Expansion Program: Improving Freshmen Retention for STEM Majors

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

During summer of 2010, we conducted a series of freshman orientation programs that were held for new science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) majors at Boise State University. Approximately 320 students were advised in this manner, during seven summer orientation sessions. This was a significant change from previous years, which used a college-specific approach to advising, thereby limiting various retention programs and opportunities designed and promoted by the College of Engineering to engineering majors. The motivation for these changes was a Science Talent Expansion Program award from the National Science Foundation, and the fact that the retention rates for freshmen engineering majors is approximately 10% higher as compared with science and mathematics majors. The grant proposed to (1) integrate the science and mathematics majors with the engineering majors during summer orientation, (2) expand student learning community offerings to STEM majors, (3) create a General Sciences course for STEM students who are underprepared in mathematics, and (4) offer an elective, non-credit bearing mathematics online review course, free of charge, to students entering the university in STEM majors. An underlying and important rationale for widening the advisement base to include all STEM majors in an inclusive manner is the fact that many freshmen are unsure of their major. Therefore orientation materials were prepared that emphasized the commonalities between majors and the underpinning courses and their prerequisites. The results of these four activities, to date, will be presented together with strategy revisions planned for summer 2011.
Medicolegal responsibilities for the administration of intravenous contrast media by radiographers: Radiologists’ perspectives

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Background. Global trends in the delivery of healthcare services have placed tremendous strain on resources, among them human and capital. With this has emerged the need to revisit the job requirements and/or scope of practice of cadres within a profession, to ensure adequate training where needed. The administration of intravenous contrast media (IVCM), a fundamental element of expertise within the radiology field, is an example of such evolution in South Africa (SA). Currently falling within radiologists' scope of practice, it has become necessary for radiographers to extend their own scope to include this skill, owing to the national shortage of radiologists and subsequent service delivery constraints, as well as the need to close the gap with international trends. Objective. To provide a synopsis of the perspectives of radiologists on the medicolegal responsibilities related to the administration of IVCM by radiographers. Methods. A quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional research design was conducted, targeting qualified radiologists in KwaZulu-Natal Province (KZN). An online questionnaire was administered through SurveyMonkey that provided information on the medicolegal responsibilities associated with the administration of IVCM. Results. Of a total of 97 qualified radiologists in KZN, a response rate of 48.5% ( n =47) was obtained. The majority of respondents felt that radiographers should be responsible for obtaining informed patient consent (66.0%), and deciding on the site of IVCM administration (72.3%). It was also felt that the radiologists should remain responsible for decisions regarding the type and dose of IVCM (87.2%) and managing the possible complications and adverse reactions due to the administration of IVCM (78.7%). Conclusion. Evidence-based research provides a contextualised approach towards addressing transformation in service delivery and training needs. This study, in demonstrating the importance of appropriate medicolegal responsibilities in the extension of a professional role, forms a basis for informing the future training of radiographers in SA.

Interacting with domestic workers in Kuwait: grammatical features of foreigner talk. A case study

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

From the beginning of modern sociolinguistics, a major goal has been the study of speech communities characterized by language contact. Languages don't actually come into contact with each other. It is always the speakers of the languages who are in contact. This article is a sociolinguistic investigation of a simplified Kuwaiti Arabic form that Kuwaitis use when interacting with their domestic workers and which may be categorized under “foreigner talk”. The argument is basically based on foreigner talk theories, and simplified and broken forms of language. Ferguson (1975) defines foreigner talk, hereafter (FT) as a simplified register used by native English speakers when interacting with linguistically incompetent non-native speakers. Mainly, the article sheds some light on some of the simplified grammatical constructions Kuwaitis use through verbal interaction with their domestic workers. Five Kuwaiti families were chosen as subjects of the study. Each family has three domestic servants working for them. Tape-recording was done in different social contexts. A total of 72 hours were obtained and then transcribed and qualitatively analyzed. Eleven simplified grammatical constructions through twenty eight social contexts were fully analyzed.

An evaluation of the use of a computer game in improving the choice reaction time of adults with intellectual disabilities

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

An increasing body of work explores the effects of computer software on cognition but little focuses on people with intellectual disabilities (learning disabilities). To test whether interactive software may reduce choice reaction time (CRT), 16 people with severe intellectual disabilities were randomly allocated to either an intervention or a control group. The intervention group spent eight sessions playing a switch‐controlled computer game that required a timed response while the control group spent the same amount of time playing a computer‐based matching game that did not require a timed response. Both groups completed a test of CRT before and after the intervention. The intervention group showed a significant reduction in their CRT from baseline while the control group did not.
