Face-to-face, online, and hybrid designs for mentoring

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The purpose of this study was to investigate how face-to-face (F2F) coaching and online mentoring influences teacher professional development and learning. "A TIME for Physics First" (PF) is a 5-year National Science Foundation (NSF) funded project, which focuses on developing 9th grade science teachers to become teacher leaders and build physics content knowledge integrated with inquiry, modeling, and technology. The PF project provides coaching (F2F) and mentoring (online) to support to improve teaching and learning. The overarching question guiding this study is: What affordances do F2F and online venues provide to a professional development project in terms of mentoring? The primary data were interview and field observation. Secondary data included the teacher self-reflection form, the classroom observation Form, monthly blogs, and artifacts. Based on the cross-case analysis of the two cases, I made the following assertions: (1) the types of questions that were asked in F2F and online post-observation discussion were very similar. The quality of those discussions is influenced by the venue and the context, (2) classroom observation is an essential component for coaching and mentoring designs, (3) effective coaching or mentoring includes time for meaningful post-observation discussions, and (4) A hybrid design, employing both F2F and online venues, provides efficient support of teachers. The hybrid mentoring and PLC design include: (1) online pre-observation report, (2) F2F classroom observation, (3) online post-observation discussion with a Mentor Observation Form and a Teacher Reflection Form, and (4) online PLC meetings with periodic F2F meetings. Evidence from the data suggests that hybrid design provides the flexibility and opportunities to optimize high quality professional development, while overcoming the limitations of single venue forms of support provided by coaching and mentoring.
In Search of Bunny Burgess, or Down the Rabbit Hole: Anecdotes, Secret Histories, and The Great Gatsby

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

F. Scott Fitzgerald's notes contain repeated references to an incident with a man named 'Bunny Burgess', a memory associated with the summer during which he composed The Great Gatsby . Ignored by Fitzgerald scholars and biographers, the story of Bunny Burgess vexes standard readings of Nick Carraway as Fitzgerald's authorial proxy. This essay uses the search for Bunny Burgess as a way to challenge the presumptions usually made about both 'biographical criticism' and 'anecdotal criticism', arguing that the anecdote of Bunny Burgess is emblematic of Fitzgerald's authorial practices, as well as the benefits and costs of biographical criticism, becoming a kind of ur-anecdote for Gatsby .
Superconductivity in W5SiB2 with the T2 Phase Structure

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

We report here the superconducting properties of W 5 SiB 2 . W 5 SiB 2 has a T 2 phase structure with the space group I 4/ m c m . Magnetic susceptibility, electrical resistivity, and specific heat data show that W 5 SiB 2 is a superconductor with a transition temperature ( T c ) of 5.8 K. The magnetization versus magnetic field ( M – H ) curve shows the typical type-II superconducting behavior. The estimated lower critical field H c1 (0) and upper critical field H c2 (0) are about 120 and 5200 Oe, respectively. The penetration depth λ and coherence length ξ are calculated to be approximately 210 and 25 nm, respectively, using Ginzburg–Landau (GL) equations. The estimated Sommerfeld coefficient γ N is 12.8 mJ/(mol K 2 ). The normalized specific heat jump Δ C /γ N T c is estimated to be about 1.49, which is near the value predicted by the BCS theory in the weak-coupling limit, i.e., Δ C /γ N T c = 1.43. This finding indicates that superconductivity in W 5 SiB 2 exists within the week-coupling regime.
Hydrocracking: A Perspective towards Digitalization

Field: Chemical Engineering (Physical Sciences)

In a world of fast technological advancements, it is increasingly important to see how hydrocracking applications can benefit from and adapt to digitalization. A review of hydrocracking processes from the perspective of modeling and characterization methods is presented next to an investigation on digitalization trends. Both physics-based and data-based models are discussed according to their scope of use, needs, and capabilities based on open literature. Discrete and continuous lumping, structure-oriented lumping, and single event micro-kinetic models are reported as well as artificial neural networks, convolutional neural networks, and surrogate models. Infrared, near-infrared, ultra-violet and Raman spectroscopic methods are given with their examples for the characterization of feed or product streams of hydrocracking processes regarding boiling point curve, API, SARA, sulfur, nitrogen and metal content. The critical points to consider while modeling the system and the soft sensor are reported as well as the problems to be addressed. Optimization, control, and diagnostics applications are presented together with suggested future directions of interdisciplinary studies. The links required between the models, soft sensors, optimization, control, and diagnostics are suggested to achieve the automation goals and, therefore, a sustainable operation.
Pandemic policies and sleeping problems in older adults

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Summary Sleep quality is fundamental to physical and mental health. Recent research shows that the COVID‐19 pandemic has affected individuals’ sleep quality. This study aims to investigate whether the containment and health policies (Oxford Coronavirus Government Response Tracker indexes) adopted by European countries and Israel during the pandemic are related to sleep problems in people aged 50 and over. A cross‐sectional study was conducted using a logistic regression analysis based on data from the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe, collected in 27 European countries and Israel, in 2021. The results show that containment and health policies affect older adults’ sleep, once we neutralise the influence of the sociodemographic, economic, and health characteristics of the individuals and close contact with COVID‐19. In fact, the more containment and health policies, the fewer chances of sleep problems. A possible explanation for this is that these policies give people over 50 a sense of safety and security in relation to COVID‐19, which may reduce sleep problems.
[Effect of temperature on the spontaneous rhythmic activity of the neurons in the spinal centers of the frog lymphatic hearts].

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Spontaneous rhythmic bursts of impulses were recorded from motoneurons related to posterior lymphatic hearts in 10th and/or 11th ventral roots of isolated frog spinal cord in vitro at the temperature of 1 degree C to 28 degrees C. The burst frequency varied from 10-12/min (at 1-3 degrees C) to 50-70/min (at 26-28 degrees C). The mean burst frequency for the 5-15 degrees C range was 2.5 +/- 0.22. High temperature sensitivity of neurons in spinal centers for lymphatic hearts of frogs may be an efficient mechanism for temperature adaptation of these poikilothermic animals.
The Role of Leaf Petiole in Photoperiodic Induction of Flowering

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Explants of Chenopodium rubrum, a short-day plant, were decapitated and exposed to floral inductive treatment, and the extent of flowering of axillary buds was afterwards assessed. Isolated buds never responded to induction, whereas the presence of the petiole of the subtending leaf already assured a high degree of flowering. We may assume either that the petiole is the receptor organ of the photoperiodic signal or that its transporting role is indispensable.
Two patterns of PT-symmetry breakdown in a non-numerical six-state simulation

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Three-parametric family of non-Hermitian but ${\cal PT}-$symmetric six-by-six matrix Hamiltonians $H^{(6)}(x,y,z)$ is considered. The ${\cal PT}-$symmetry remains spontaneously unbroken (i.e., the spectrum of the bound-state energies remains real so that the unitary-evolution stability of the quantum system in question is shown guaranteed) in a non-empty domain ${\cal D}^{(physical)}$ of parameters $x,y,z$. The construction of the exceptional-point (EP) boundary $\partial{\cal D}^{(physical)}$ of the physical domain is preformed using an innovative non-numerical implicit-function-construction strategy. The topology of the resulting EP boundary of the spontaneous ${\cal PT}-$symmetry breakdown (i.e., of the physical "horizon of stability") is shown similar to its much more elementary $N=4$ predecessor. Again, it is shown to consist of two components, viz., of the region of the quantum phase transitions of the first kind (during which at least some of the energies become complex) and of the quantum phase transitions of the second kind (during which some of the level pairs only cross but remain real).
Is platelet-rich plasma or hyaluronic acid better than corticosteroids in treating flexor stenosing tenosynovitis?

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction The trigger finger is one of the frequent hand conditions. It may not respond to pharmaceutical treatment warranting injection in many cases. Classically, steroids had been used extensively. Recently emerging trends of using hyaluronic acid or platelet-rich plasma in the injection of soft tissue problems had acquired significant popularity despite being significantly more expensive than the steroids. Aim The study aims to prove a pragmatic comparison of hyaluronic acid, platelet-rich plasma, and steroids in the treatment of adult trigger fingers. Patients and methods Initially 362 patients were evaluated for possible inclusion in the study between August 2018 and January 2024. The condition was classified according to the modified Quinnell classification, and the patients completed the visual analog scale, and Michigan Hand Outcome score at the pre-injection visit, 2 weeks after injection, 6 weeks after injection, and 12 weeks after injection. One hundred ninety-seven patients (67 in the steroid group, 66 in the platelet-rich plasma group, and 64 in the hyaluronic acid group) were available for statistical analysis. Results In all groups, the 12 weeks post-injection visual analog score was better than the pre-injection visual analog score ( P =0.001). The strongest statistical correlation with the final Michigan Hand Outcome score was with the grade of the inflammation before the injection as classified by Quinnell ( P <0.001). Age, sex, whether the dominant hand was affected or not, occupational activity, and diabetic status did not affect the outcome. The duration of symptoms in the hyaluronic acid group had a moderate negative correlation with the outcome ( P =0.001). None of the patients in either group suffered complications during the follow-up period. Conclusion The results of the current study speak to the safety and efficacy of the three injection materials in the short-term in grades II and III according to Quinnell’s. All patients in grades II and III improved significantly in the three groups. The duration of symptoms of less than 15 weeks was associated with better outcomes in the hyaluronic acid group, but the outcomes in the steroid or the platelet-rich plasma group were not affected by the duration of symptoms. Patients with grade IV improved significantly with steroid injection compared to the hyaluronic acid group and the platelet-rich plasma group. Patients with grade V did not improve with any injection. Both hyaluronic acid and platelet-rich plasma are significantly more expensive than steroids, with no added benefit in the short term.
Assistive peripheral prosthetic vision aids perception and mobility in outdoor environments: A virtual-reality simulation study

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) causes visual field (VF) constriction due to progressive loss of photoreceptors, typically from the retinal periphery to the fovea. Retinal prostheses offer vision restoration via electrode implantation and stimulation near the fovea, thereby eliciting articifial percepts, so-called phosphenes in the center VF. Although foveal photoreceptors can persist for prolonged periods of time, bionic therapy is usually restricted to stages of RP with complete vision loss. However, persons with RP experience mobility impairment from peripherally restricted VFs much earlier. Consequently, the amount of visual scanning necessary for navigation is increased, and maintaining a steady pace is challenging. Receiving a retinal implant at this early stage might be feasible. We investigated the potential of a peripheral visual prosthesis coexisting with central residual vision to facilitate scene perception and mobility. Simulating prosthetic and residual vision in a virtual mobility environment, we found that assistive phosphene layouts were associated with reductions in visual scanning-related head movements of up to 42.1%, body rotations of up to 30%, and up to 45% lower frequency of stopping when circumventing low-lying obstacles, pedestrians and following a path. Further research on early implantation of retinal prostheses for the peripheral VF is therefore advised.
Proposed method of realization of RLCG meter

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The RLCG meter is usually constructed from separate analogue oscillator as a source of test signal and two phase detectors that obtain real and imaginary part. In some cases the real and imaginary parts are calculated by using DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform). More sophisticate solution is described in this paper. Proposed solution is based on fully digital conception, when test signal is generated in digital form and this signal (in the same form) is simply used for phase detection.
Serum biochemical parameters and cytokine profiles associated with natural African trypanosome infections in cattle

Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

Animal African trypanosomiasis (AAT) greatly affects livestock production in sub-Saharan Africa. In Ghana prevalence of AAT is estimated to range between 5 and 50%. Studies have reported serum biochemical aberrations and variability in cytokine profiles in animals during infection. However, information regarding the biochemical parameters and cytokine profiles associated with natural infections are limited. This study was therefore aimed at investigating changes in the levels of serum biochemical parameters and inflammatory cytokines during a natural infection. Nested internal transcribed spacer (ITS)-based PCR and sequencing were used to characterise trypanosome infection in cattle at two areas in Ghana (Adidome and Accra) of different endemicities. The cattle were sampled at four to five-week intervals over a period of six months. Levels of serum biochemical parameters, including creatinine, cholesterol, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), total bilirubin and total protein and cytokines (interleukin 10, interleukin 4, interleukin 12, interferon gamma and tumor necrosis factor alpha) were measured in serum samples and then compared between infected cattle and uninfected controls. The predominant trypanosome species detected in Accra (non-endemic) and Adidome (endemic) were Trypanosoma theileri and Trypanosoma vivax, respectively. Serum biochemical parameters were similar between infected and uninfected cattle in Accra. Infected cattle at Adidome however, had significantly higher levels of ALP, creatinine, total protein and total bilirubin (P < 0.05) and significantly lower levels of cholesterol (P < 0.05) at specific time points. At basal levels and during infection, significantly higher pro-inflammatory to anti-inflammatory (Th1/Th2) cytokine ratios were observed in cattle at Adidome compared to Accra (P < 0.05), indicating a shift towards Th1 immune response in Adidome. Levels of IL-10 were, however, significantly elevated in infected cattle in Accra (P < 0.05), suggesting high anti-inflammatory cytokine response in Accra. These results suggests that cattle in an endemic area repeatedly infected with trypanosomes of different species or different antigenic types demonstrate high pro-inflammatory (Th1) immune response and biochemical alterations whereas cattle in a non-endemic area with predominantly chronic T. theileri infections demonstrate high anti-inflammatory response and no biochemical alterations.

The objective of this work is to measure the impact of ICT on the tourism sector growth. Assuming that the increase of etourism sector depends on the increase in tourism demand and internet penetration, we examine the case of all Mediterranean EU member countries, and forecast the growth of online tourism services.
A Case of Hypokalemia-induced Rhabdomyolysis Caused by Licorice Root Consumption

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Licorice root is a plant that is consumed widely, especially in the east of Turkey. Licorice originates from the Glycyrrhiza glabra root, which has an herbal component called glycyrrhizic acid, and has a mineralocorticoid-like effect. Chronic liquorice consumption causes a condition similar to the one observed in primary hyperaldosteronism. Biochemical experiments show that 11-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, the enzyme responsible for inactivating cortisol, is inhibited by glycyrrhizinates. Consequently, excessive intake of licorice can cause a syndrome similar to hypermineralocorticoidism, characterized by sodium and water retention, hypertension, hypokalemia, metabolic alkalosis, low-renin activity, and hypoaldosteronism. In this article, we present a case of muscle weakness, hypokalemia, rhabdomyolysis, and hypertension due to excessive licorice consumption.

Cloud model-based control strategy on cluster communication coverage for wireless sensor networks

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

For random deployment in sensor networks, there exists uneven node density, seriously reducing the network performance after clustering. The idea of the power control in CDMA is applied to handle the communication coverage control for clusters in wireless sensor networks. The cloud model-based uncertainty reasoning and control mechanism are introduced to adjust the transmit power adaptively to keep the node number within each cluster in an appropriate range in accordance with the node distribution density. The tendentious rules of cloud model ensure the convergence performance of the coverage control, while random process concealled in cloud model ensures the best iteration times in all. After clustering, there exists an appropriate node number within each cluster, improving the network topology. The experiment results validate its rationality and effectiveness.

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Occupational therapy is one type of therapy that is specifically applied to someone who has special health problems, so that they can return to normal activities. Occupational therapy is one of the effective methods for children to be able to find out what learning methods are suitable for them. With occupational therapy, parents have hope that their children can carry out daily activities independently. This method usually involves the game and the surrounding facilities as a tool. One thing to note is the selection of shape patterns. The pattern of forms applied to the therapy room has a role in the child's therapy process. These patterns can be in the form of games, furniture facilities or treatment of floors or walls. The purpose of this study was to find out the concept of the shape pattern applied to the occupational therapy room at the my super kidz child development clinic and its benefits for children.
