Towards the selection of critical indicators in educational centers

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Usually implicitly -but sometimes even explicitly-, assessment determines the way in which schools are run, as well as the teaching process and the learning process. It conditions everyday tasks at schools and discriminates between valuable and worthless items in Education. Society appreciates some elements or others, depending on the assessment they obtain, and does not know -or does not want to know, actually- about un-assessed features. Therefore, it is of vital importance to select the most suitable set of indicators, the ones that will show the main aspects of school management. The mere selection and expression of the critical indicators for a certain school would provoke a crisis at school, and would mark the beginning of a necessary course-correction in the school management, towards some qualitative improvement of its offer to students.
Flexible Humidity Sensors Based on Nanocellulose

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

The study describes methods for preparing cellulose from miscanthus stalks in an environmentally friendly way using a solution of peracetic acid and nanocellulose by the method of hydrolysis of organosolv miscanthus pulp. The properties and application of nanocellulose in capacitive and resistive humidity sensors have been studied. We have investigated influence of electrode parameters and operating frequency on sensor characteristics. It was determined that device sensitivity increases with decreasing of the distance between electrodes and operating frequency. The responses of capacitive and resistive humidity sensors based on nanocellulose were in the range of 1.15 - 102 nF and 5,1*10 1 - 1,1*10 3 correspondingly. The maximum value of sensitivity was reached up to 0,094 (%RH) −1 .

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The report presents the application of a risk and reliability based inspection planning framework (RBI) for the InnWind 20MW reference wind turbine jacket sub-structure. A detailed fracture mechanics based fatigue crack growth model is developed and used as basis to derive optimal inspection plans for the jacket substructure. Inspection plans for different inspection techniques are proposed and recommendations on how to optimize inspection intervals are discussed.
A Survey of blood types of the Domestic cat (Felis catus) in Maiduguri, North-eastern Nigeria

Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

A haematological study was carried out in domestic cats native to Nigeria, in Maiduguri, north-eastern Nigeria.The aim was to determine the blood types in this specie (AB blood system) using the CHROM method which is based on immunochromatograhic diffusion of RBC's passing through monoclonal antibody containing strips (Alvedia Quick test kit).Fifty cats were sampled and analysed.The result showed that cats with blood type A were the most common with a rate of 44/50(88%), followed by type B 6/50 (12%).Of all the cats sampled, none had blood type AB.This study documents the first record of blood types in cats in Nigeria.The knowledge of the blood group of the domestic cats has significant clinical implications in terms of transfusion medicine as well as for breeding purposes.
Host viral protein-protein interaction in influenza A virus infection

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

Influenza A virus is well known for its severe clinical consequences. Structurally, this virus is made up of a lipid bilayer embedded with HA, NA and M2 proteins and a core containing eight viral ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes. In a typical RNP complex, the nucleoprotein binds with RNA in a non specific manner. The nucleoprotein plays a vital role in transcription, replication, and packaging of RNA during infection. This study aims that NP of A/PR/8/34(H1N1) virus and A/NY/55/2004(H3N2) virus interact with different host proteins depending on cell lines and virus strains. Monoclonal antibodies targeting the nucleoprotein of these viruses have been used for immunoprecipitation and the interacting proteins were identified by mass spectrometry. Tow proteins from the cytoplasm (elongation factor 1 sigma, and Mov10 protein) and 3 proteins from the nucleus (heat shock protein70, hnRNP K protein, and anti alpha actinin 4) were found in all the viral infected cells, and were chosen for validation study. This study will help to understand the virus-host interactions in a better way and may open the gateway for the synthesis of new antiviral drugs which can block these interactions, hence controlling the infection.
Direct Structural and Chemical Characterization of the Photolytic Intermediates of Methylcobalamin Using Time-Resolved X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Cobalt-carbon bond cleavage is crucial to most natural and synthetic applications of the cobalamin class of compounds, and here we present the first direct electronic and geometric structural characteristics of intermediates formed following photoexcitation of methylcobalamin (MeCbl) using time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). We catch transients corresponding to two intermediates, in the hundreds of picoseconds and a few microseconds. Highlights of the picosecond intermediate, which is reduced in comparison to the ground state, are elongation of the upper axial Co-C bond and relaxation of the corrin ring. This is not so with the recombining photocleaved products captured at a few microseconds, where the Co-C bond almost (yet not entirely) reverts to its ground state configuration and a substantially elongated lower axial Co-NIm bond is observed. The reduced cobalt site here confirms formation of methyl radical as the photoproduct.
Chicken Without Chicken, Sausage Without Sausage

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This chapter analyses representations of various foods for vegetarians which constantly refer to meat and may be found on the supermarkets' shelves in both the US and Europe: meatless burgers, chicken- and turkey-free breasts, salami meat-free sandwiches, and even "Tofurkey Italian Sausage." All of them do not contain meat but continually refer to parts of the animal and to meat, rhetorically underlying the presence of what is absent: meat. The chapter applies visual and discourse analysis to the packaging and the promotional messages of these products, and to the comment on them on the social media, focusing on those parts relating to meat and parts of the animal adopted to promote products which do not contain any animal ingredient. The results show that for many vegetarians the flavor of these products is irrelevant. Rather, they focus on the fact that they resemble meat and can replace it. This means that, for people rejecting meat, they are cultural products, rather than simple items of food. Moreover, the willingness to replace meat can be linked to Derrida's theory of the hiatus between signified and signifying. Finally, as suggested by Lacan, in this apparently incomprehensible relationship between vegetarians and meat, we can find the human unconscious desire for the absent Other, in this case the vegetarian unconscious desire for meat, and the ability to give meat its name.
Advertising in Contemporary Vietnam

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This study investigates the question: What does a snapshot overview of outdoor advertising communicate about the expansion of capitalism in the emerging capitalist economy of Vietnam in the late 1990s. Examples of contemporary outdoor advertising collected on a short visit to Vietnam in late 1998, reflects recent changes in the Vietnamese economy, the standard of living of the urban Vietnamese consumer, as well as the political environment, especially the continued strength of the Communist party. There was a considerable amount of foreign advertising, but there was also a significant amount of social service advertising by the government for development projects. Foreign advertising tended to promote consumer goods which was to be expected. The most advertised products were repeat purchase consumables, with beer emerging as the most advertised product The fast-food internationals such as Coca Cola were not prominent and there was almost no advertising for cigarettes—the big American companies being notably absent. The lack of lifestyle advertising reflects government policies and a wish to control aspirations and outside influences. The expansion of international business has not resulted in the transformation of Vietnam into a Western style consumer society, because it is still a predominantly peasant-based rural society, that has one of the lowest income levels in the world.
In vivo Hepatocyte Genome Manipulation via Intravenous Injection of Genome Editing Components

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The liver is a major organ with a wide range of functions, including detoxification, protein synthesis, and bile production. Liver dysfunction causes liver diseases such as hepatic cirrhosis and hepatitis. To explore the pathogenesis of these liver diseases, and the therapeutic agents against them, mice have been widely used as animal models. Genetic manipulation is easy in mice via the administration of nucleic acids (NAs) in the tail-vein. In particular, hydrodynamics-based gene delivery (HGD) is a method based on the introduction of a large volume of NA-containing solution over a short period in the tail-vein. It is recognized as a powerful tool to efficiently transfect hepatocytes. Genome editing, as illustrated by the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein-9 nuclease (Cas9) (CRISPR/Cas9) system, has also been recognized as a powerful tool to manipulate target genes in host genomes. Recently, studies have described the tail-vein-mediated introduction of genome editing components for the generation of liver tumors, correction of mutated genes causing liver dysfunction, and generation of mice with liver disease. More importantly, this HGD method can bypass the need to create mouse progeny carrying the targeted mutation in their germline. In this review, the past and present achievements of liver-targeted manipulation achieved via intravenous injection of genome editing components will be summarized.
Effects of fast neutrons on the eye.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The study of 93 eyes receiving neutron irradiation establishes the character of the ophthalmic complications of neutron. Significant changes are produced in the eyelids, conjunctiva, and cornea, but the production of cataract is relatively unimportant. No reaction was seen after neutron treatment that had not already been seen after chi or gamma radiation. That the unavoidable damage is similar to that reported with other forms of radiation, and not worse, is an important finding in view of the statistically significant benefit of neutron treatment to patients in a controlled clinical trial of advanced tumours of the head and neck (Catterall and others, 1975). The observations indicate that the improved cure rates with neutrons are not obtained at the expense of inflicting greater damage to normal structures. This investigation has also shown that the neutron effects of treating these very extensive tumours are acceptable and that, with carefully measured doses, they are predictable. The dose-response relationship in categories of clinical effect for a smaller series of patients, reported in Table 1 of our preliminary communication (Brown and other, 1976), is confirmed.
Adult syndrome allelic to limb mammary syndrome (LMS)?

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

In 1993, we described an autosomal-dominant syndrome in a German family characterized by ectrodactyly/syndactyly, dysplasia of nails, lacrimal duct atresia, hypodontia, hypoplastic breasts and nipples, intensive freckling (ADULT syndrome, acro-dermato-ungual-lacrimal-tooth syndrome, MIM 103285). In 1996 a large Dutch family with an autosomal-dominant syndrome ("limb mammary syndrome", LMS, MIM *603543) characterized by hypoplasia/aplasia of mammary glands and nipples, ectrodactyly, other hand/foot anomalies, lacrimal-duct atresia, nail dysplasia, hypohidrosis, cleft palate/bifid uvula, hypodontia was reported. In this family the disease locus was recently mapped to the chromosomal region 3q27 through a genome-wide linkage screen. Given the similarity of manifestations we hypothesized that the two syndromes might be allelic. We genotyped 21 members of the ADULT family with 19 polymorphic markers from the chromosomal region 3q27 and obtained a maximal lod score of 4.82 at θ = 0.00 with marker D3S1288. Our results place the ADULT locus to the same chromosomal region where LMS was mapped, suggesting that these two conditions are allelic. Am. J. Med. Genet. 90:179–182, 2000. © 2000 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
The Role of Pedagogy and School Textbooks in Shaping the Idea of Superiority in French Colonial Culture

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The author of this article takes as his starting point the idea that the colonial expansion and the experience of learning about the world in the 19th — early 20th centuries were fully reflected in the process of self-identification of European societies and the substantiation of the idea of their civilization, culture, and superiority. The colonial factor and colonial culture could give vitality to national identity, allowing the reformatting of the national space. In France, colonial expansion began to be perceived by various social strata as the best way to strengthen the country, and colonial culture was gradually becoming a familiar element of public consciousness. The French, like other European nations, took the colonial idea from school. Using the example of educational narratives (school textbooks and anthologies), the author shows the penetration of elements of colonial culture into the public consciousness. The French school at the turn of the 19th — 20th centuries became a «testing ground for progress», where new social, political, and economic technologies were tested. The school became one of the places where the ideas of superiority were formed. French pedagogy was inextricably linked with colonial culture. All textbooks, both for secular and church schools, placed the civilizing work of France at the forefront. From this point of view, the plan for the formation of souls, its tasks, current and future, were presented. The author concludes that the formation of the French colonial empire led to the strengthening of the national at the expense of the colonial and to their active rapprochement. The colonial idea and colonial culture contributed to the awareness of the French of their belonging to a single nation, the formation of their national identity, and pedagogical practices played a special role in this process.
Case Studies of Teacher Effectiveness in Second Grade Physical Education

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The purpose of this study was to describe the teaching behaviors of four teachers who had varying degrees of expertise in working with second grade students and to improve the teachers’ effectiveness. Four experienced teachers were asked to teach a six-lesson unit in jumping and landing skills to an intact class of their choice. Students were pre- and posttested on their ability to produce and reduce force using a force platform and a jump for distance without the platform. OSCD-PE (Rink, 1979) was used to describe the more general aspects of the teachers’ content development and managerial skills. Task presentation, nature of feedback, and appropriateness of student responses were obtained using the QMTPS (Rink & Werner, 1989). Additional information was obtained by counting practice trials and analyzing teacher written plans and approaches to content. Following the first teaching experience, the researchers gave feedback to the teachers and asked them to reteach the unit to a different class. Product and process measures were obtained in the same manner on the second teaching experience. Data were presented in a case study format. The results describe the importance of content knowledge, the ability to present information clearly, and holding students accountable for selected performance aspects.
Closed Loop Supply Chain under Power Configurations and Dual Competitions

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

This paper investigates pricing and collecting decisions in a closed loop supply chain (CLSC) under different power configurations and dual competitions. If the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) could sell products directly and collect used products, OEM has to compete with both forward retailer and reverse collector, simultaneously, and OEM possesses different bargaining powers. Specifically, we examine the following models: (1) M1: OEM holds the first position in both forward and reverse channels; (2) M2: OEM holds the first (second) position in the forward (reverse) channel; (3) M3: OEM holds the second position in both channels. We conduct a systematic comparison of forward competition, reverse competition and dual competitions across the above models. From the perspective of the entire supply chain, the outcome of model selection hinges on the extent of competition. If the competition is sufficient, two forward leaders will engage in a price battle which results in great losses for both. Then M1 is preferred. Otherwise, M3 outperforms.
Evolution of the “Hierarchy of Engagement” Model Over a Decade: Examining Social Media Use to Inform, Activate, and Create Community

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

ABSTRACT The use and underuse of social media by organizations have garnered significant attention from scholars. The findings indicate that most public and nonprofit organizations primarily use one‐way messaging in their social media communication. In 2012, Lovejoy and Saxton presented a “Hierarchy of Engagement” framework to categorize nonprofits' social media communication into Information, Community, and Action (ICA) messages. Since its publication, more than 100 research articles, reports, etc. have referred to this framework. This study presents a systematic review of 48 published scholarly articles that applied and expanded the ICA typology over 10 years (2012–2021). We find that the messaging strategy has not changed much from how the authors initially framed it. The social media accounts reviewed by this literature average share 51% information, 24% community, and 26% action messages. This study offers practical implications for nonprofit professionals, marketers, digital media managers, and scholars.
The Impact of Lifetime Sports on African American Male Adults' Health and Well-Being

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This quantitative study examines the impact lifetime sports (LTS) have on African American (AA) male adults' self-rated health and well-being. African Americans' history of health disparities, racism, and discrimination has led to a disproportionately unhealthy quality of life. Chronic conditions and illnesses, such as diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease, are higher among AA than other racial demographics. Among Black Men, mental and social-emotional health conditions, such as depression and anxiety, are higher than their White male counterparts. Socioeconomic status (SES) is a significant indicator of racial health disparities in the United States. Among African Americans, no matter their SES, they are more likely to have grown up in impoverished environments and neighborhoods. Moreover, children raised in low-SES homes will likely live in low-SES neighborhoods as adults. Participation in lifetime sports may have a positive impact on the overall quality of life for African Americans. Some studies have shown positive impacts on quality of life with participation in physical activities, including lifetime sports. The three research questions guiding this study are: 1) How does lifetime sports participation impact African American male adults' self-rated health and well-being? 2) How does lifetime sports participation impact AA male adults' self-rated basic need to thrive? 3) How does socioeconomic status impact AA male adults' participation in lifetime sports? The data was collected using a validated survey questionnaire on how lifetime sports participation impacts African American male adults' self-rated quality of life and basic needs satisfaction. Keywords: lifetime sports, African American males, quality of life, socioeconomic status, self-rated questionnaires.
THE EFFECT OF DIET ON THE NITROGENOUS END PRODUCTS EXCRETED BY LARVAL TRIBOLIUM CONFUSUM: WITH NOTES ON CORRECTION OF A.D. AND E.C.D. FOR FECAL URINE

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Tribolium confusum duVal larvae were reared from hatching to the larval‐pupal ecdysis on cracked wheat, finely ground wheat, finely ground wheat plus 5 % brewer's yeast, or wheat germ. Feces were collected quantitatively and analyzed for nitrogenous end products by thin layer chromatography, the enzymatic‐spectrophotometric method, and colorimetric methods. Larvae fed cracked wheat or wheat germ excreted a larger total of nitrogenous metabolites than did the others. The relative quantities of hypoxanthine, xanthine, uric acid, and allantoin which made up the total varied with diet. Calculated on the basis of the total, the percent allantoin remained relatively constant, but the proportions of the other end products varied considerably. Feces derived from cracked wheat or finely ground wheat contained about 25 % uric acid, while feces derived from wheat germ or ground wheat with brewer's yeast contained about 61 % and 45 % uric acid respectively and correspondingly reduced quantities of hypoxanthine and xanthine. Urea and ammonia were also present. Correction for the estimated urine content of the feces results in an increase in the calculated approximate digestibility and a decrease in the calculated efficiency of conversion of digested food . The changes are small, but significant. The size of the change varies with the diet. Zusammenfassung DIE WIRKUNG DER ERNÄHRUNG AUF DIE IM KOT AUSGESCHIEDENEN STICKSTOFF‐ENDPRODUKTE VON TRIBOLIUM CONFUSUM‐ LARVEN Tribolium confusum ‐Larven wurden vom Schlüpfen bis zur Larven‐Puppen‐Häutung an geschrotetem Weizen, fein gemahlenem Weizen, fein gemahlenem Weizen + 5 % Bierhefe oder Weizenkeimlingen aufgezogen. Der Kot wurde quantitativ gesammelt und mittels Dünnschichtchromatographie, der enzymatisch‐spektrophotometrischen Methode und colorimetrischen Methoden auf Stickstoff‐Endprodukte analysiert. Mit geschrotetem Weizen oder Weizenkeimlingen gefütterte Larven hatten einen größeren Gesamtgehalt an Stickstoff‐Metaboliten als die anderen. Die relativen Mengen von Hypoxanthin, Xanthin, Harnsäure und Allantoin, welche diesen Gesamtgehalt ergaben, wechselten mit der Diät. Auf den Gesamtgehalt bezogen blieb Allantoin prozentual relativ konstant, aber die Anteile der übrigen Endprodukte variierten beträchtlich. Kot nach Ernährung mit geschrotetem oder fein gemahlenem Weizen enthielt etwa 30 % Harnsäure, während Kot von mit Weizenkeimlingen oder mit gemahlenem Weizen + Bierhefe ernährten Tieren etwa 68 bzw. 50 % Harnsäure und entsprechend geringere Mengen Hypoxanthin und Xanthin enthielt. Harnstoff und Ammoniak waren ebenfalls vorhanden, jedoch vermutlich durch die Mikroorganismen des Kots gebildet worden.
