The Use of Traditional Methods of Contraception among Turkish Couples

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

About half the users of contraceptives in Turkey employ traditional methods of family planning, particularly withdrawal. This report presents data from a 1988 national survey to examine Turkish couples' use of and opinions about these methods. Use of traditional methods is widespread across all geographic, demographic, and socioeconomic groups. The principal reasons reported for not using methods generally considered to be highly reliable were fear of health problems and side effects and the opposition of husbands to such methods. Most couples who practice withdrawal also feel that it is as effective as modern methods. These findings imply that a major focus of family planning efforts should be the education of women, of their partners, and of health-care and family planning providers concerning the benefits, risks, and failure rates of both traditional and modern contraceptive methods.

Modeling Targeted Lymphodepletion with Radiolabeled CD45 Antibody As a Promising Preparative Regimen Prior to Adoptive Cell Therapy or CAR-T

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Abstract Prior to a patient receiving a dose of an adoptive cell transfer such as engineered autologous or allogeneic CAR-T cells, it is common to perform a lymphodepletion step often using high dose chemotherapy. This process is considered important to create sufficient space in the immune microenvironment, e.g. bone marrow, to allow the transferred cells to engraft. Further, it appears to elicit a favorable cytokine profile for establishment and proliferation of the donor lymphocytes. Anti-CD45 radioimmunotherapy (RIT) is being investigated in a Phase III clinical trial as a myeloablative targeted conditioning regimen prior to allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation in AML patients. In this study, a low 131I-CD45 RIT dosimetric dose is administered to each patient and imaging performed to define a personalized therapeutic dose. Results from studies performed post-dosimetric dose demonstrate that lower doses of 131I-anti-CD45 RIT may be suitable for use as a preparative conditioning or lymphodepleting regimen prior to cell therapy such as CAR-T. Significantly, targeted conditioning with pan-CD45 antibody, which selectively targets all nucleated immune cells, is anticipated to deplete not only lymphocytes, but also macrophages, as well as immune suppressive regulatory T cells (T-regs) and myeloid-derived suppressor cells in the immune microenvironment. It may also exert a direct anti-tumor effect on CD45+ hematopoietic cancers. We hypothesized that targeted lymphodepletion may result in a more suitable immune homeostatic environment for the reception of adoptive cell therapies, and possibly reduce the incidence of cytokine release syndrome. We have performed preclinical studies using a 131I- labeled surrogate anti-mouse pan-CD45 antibody (30F11) to investigate in a mouse model the response of targeted RIT lymphodepletion on particular immune cell types and resulting changes in immune cytokine expression. Following single dose administration of non-myeloablative doses of CD45-RIT, peripheral blood, bone marrow and spleen samples were collected from 8-12 week C57Bl/6 mice at 48 and 96 hours post-treatment for immunophenotyping to evaluate lymphoid and myeloid subsets for lymphodepletion, and serum for cytokine profiling. CD45-RIT was shown to effect a considerable reduction in both lymphocyte and myeloid cell counts, inclusive of immune suppressive T regs and MDSCs. Further, the cytoreduction by CD45-RIT was shown to induce the expression of immune homeostatic cytokines including IL-15. Studies are in progress to evaluate CD45-RIT as a targeted lymphodepletion regimen in E.G7 lymphoma tumor bearing mice prior to adoptive cell transfer with OVA-specific CD8+ T cells.

Sistem Pakar Untuk Diagnosa Retardasi Mental Anak dengan Metode Bayes Berbasis Web

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

In children's mental retardation, sometimes the child's parents cannot directly consult with a psychiatric specialist because of the limited time in carrying out activities in the hospital and the high cost. Advances in expert systems can overcome this problem, namely by designing a web-based computer system that is integrated with databases and programming languages ​​such as PHP-MySQL so that it can help patients with mental retardation to diagnose the disorder. The purpose of this research is to build a web-based expert system for diagnosing mental disorders. The application of the expert system in this decision making uses the Bayes method, in probability theory and statistics, the Bayes theorem is a theorem with two different interpretations. In Bayes' interpretation, this theorem states how far the degree of subjective belief must change rationally when there are new clues. to get a diagnosis. The result of the implementation of the system is that the system provides choices in the form of symptoms that must be answered by the patient's parents based on the symptoms experienced by the patient and the results of the process the system will provide information on the mental retardation he experienced in order to get a solution with the handler
Fungal endophyte infection and host genetic background jointly modulate host response to an aphid‐transmitted viral pathogen

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Summary Despite their ubiquitous nature, interactions between multiple micro‐organisms and their effects on host growth and each other's success have received limited scientific attention. In particular, grasses can be commonly infected by both endophytic fungi and viruses, which are typically transmitted by aphids. In this study, we investigated how an aphid‐transmitted viral pathogen and a symbiotic endophytic fungus altered host growth and allocation. We hypothesized that, by reducing aphid feeding, endophyte infection would lower viral titre and consequently decrease the negative effects of virus infection on host biomass production. In a greenhouse experiment, we manipulated fungal endophyte status and virus infection ( Barley Yellow Dwarf Virus – PAV ) of two tall fescue cultivars with different genetic backgrounds [KY 31 and pasture demonstration farm (PDF)]. In one cultivar (PDF), we also manipulated endophyte strain, using two strains that had been selected for differences in alkaloid production. We assessed host, virus and vector responses. As hypothesized, endophyte infection decreased reproduction and abundance of aphid vectors; however, in contrast to our hypothesis, this response by aphids did not impact viral titre. For both tall fescue cultivars, endophyte infection alleviated the negative effect of virus infection on the proportion of total plant biomass allocated to roots. On the other hand, for the KY 31 cultivar only, virus infection decreased tillering in endophyte‐infected individuals, but not endophyte‐free individuals. Within the PDF cultivar, both endophyte strains produced similar effects on host, virus and vector responses. Synthesis These results indicate that some of the beneficial effects provided by endophyte infection, particularly alleviating the negative effect of virus infection on the proportion of total plant biomass allocated to roots, do not arise strictly from altering host interactions with herbivores (aphids), but also occur by changing host responses to viral infection. Furthermore, these results emphasize the importance of exploring multispecies microbial interactions and genetic controls on these interactions in order to more fully understand their role in community‐ and ecosystem‐level dynamics.
[Status of the osteoclast-activating system in cosmonauts after long-duration missions to the International Space Station].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The results of studying the system of osteoprotegerin/ receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (OPG/RANKL) in 22 cosmonauts after long-duration (124 to 199 days) ISS missions are presented. Immediately on return to 1 g, changes were observed in OPG and RANKL serum levels and the ability to produce unstimulated and stimulated PGA of peripheral blood mononuclear cells in vitro. Individual variability of these changes was noticed. Our findings suggest that the cytokine OPG/RANKL-system is involved in bone remodeling in members of long-duration space missions.
Reducing peak power with a table-driven adaptive processor core

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The increasing power dissipation of current processors and processor cores constrains design options, increases packaging and cooling costs, increases power delivery costs, and decreases reliability. Much research has been focused on decreasing average power dissipation, which most directly addresses cooling costs and reliability. However, much less has been done to decrease peak power, which most directly impacts the processor design, packaging, and power delivery. This research proposes a new architecture which provides a significant decrease in peak power with limited performance loss. It does this through the use of a highly adaptive processor. Many components of the processor can be configured at different levels, but because they are centrally controlled, the architecture can guarantee that they are never all configured maximally at the same time. This paper describes this adaptive processor and explores mechanisms for transitioning between allowed configurations to maximize performance within a peak power constraint. Such an architecture can cut peak power by 25% with less than 5% performance loss; among other advantages, this frees 5.3% of total core area used for decoupling capacitors.

The martyrdom of Montanus and Lucius: Introductory article, Russian translation and commentary

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The article gives a brief description and an annotated translation of the “Martyrdom of St. Montanus and Lucius” (Passio Sanctorum Montani et Lucii, BHL 6009). This interesting source of Roman North Africa created in time of Valerian persecution contains valuable information about the organization of the Christian community of Carthage, as well as its attitude towards martyrdom. It mentions several background characters, that also adds to its value. The text of the monument consists of two parts. The first (1–11) is a report of Christian presence of Christians in prison, apparently recorded by Flavian, while the second (12–23), composed by an anonymous author, tells of the death of Montanus, Lucius and their companions, as well as about the misadventures of the Flavian on the way to suffering. In spite of authenticity of the text being commonly recognized, the problem of the influence on it of other African hagiographical monuments is of big importance, because it contents a number of similar subject courses (visions of characters) and unique features (a huge youth in a gorgeous robe, stairs on the way to paradise, bowl with milk and so on). Another feature of the martyrdom is extensive use of biblical quotations exactly corresponded with Vulgate by Jerome. This, in turn, raises the question of editorial changes and the appearance of the text in general
Endoscopic Management of Aural Myiasis: Experience of Two Decades

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: The present study was undertaken to compare the efficacy of toendoscopic removal with conventional techniques in aural myiasis patients.
Methods: The 338, aural myiasis patients in study group were treated using Hopkine rigid toendoscope, the visible crawling caudal end of maggots was grasped with forceps & removed. Rests were identified from crawling movements or the visible caudal end buried in EAC and middle ear cavity and removed. Complete maggots clearance of ear cavity from EAC to middle ear cavity was done and same was repeated on other side if needed. Equal number of patients was treated using head light.
Results: The mean age in two groups was 55.5 years (range 02-68) in aural myiasis patients. There were 56.5% males and 43.5% females. Mean duration of aural symptom in both groups was 2 days. Endoscopically mean number of 42 maggots (range-10- 62) were removed in first sitting as compared to conventional technique where mean of 28 (range 10-48) maggots were removed (p<0.001). The mean duration of endoscopic treatment was 2days whereas in control group it was 6days. The difference was statistically significant (p<0.001).
Conclusion: Otoendoscopic procedure is superior to the conventional extraction method for removal of aural maggots. The larvae located in deep and inaccessible areas can be identified and removed easily. The disease was controlled in shorter time and ensures less damage to the middle ear structures.
Substance P (SP) mediates production of stem cell factor and interleukin-1 in bone marrow stroma: potential autoregulatory role for these cytokines in SP receptor expression and induction

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

Substance P (SP) is a neuropeptide widely distributed in the nervous system. Its release within the bone marrow (BM) can mediate bidirectional neurohematopoietic communication via specific receptors: neurokinin-1R (NK-1R), NK-2R, or NK-3R. We have previously reported that SP effects on hematopoiesis are mediated by an NK-1-type receptor, the BM stroma, and growth factors. Here, we have studied the induction of stem cell factor (SCF) and interleukin-1 (IL-1) by SP in stroma. At 10(-9) mol/L SP, cytokine levels in supernatants were IL-1 alpha, 20 +/- 5 ng/mL; IL-1 beta, 40 +/- 10 ng/mL; and SCF, nondetectable; and the cell-associated levels were SCF, 21 +/- 2 ng/mL; IL-1 alpha, 90 +/- 6 ng/mL; and IL-1 beta, 45 +/- 3 ng/mL. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction and ligand-binding studies with stroma stimulated by these two cytokines resulted in (1) NK-1-like receptor mRNA accumulation and (2) downregulation of SP binding sites (day 1) followed by an upregulation (day 3). Low numbers of high-affinity receptors were expressed by day 1 but not by day 3. The results indicate that SP induces IL-1 and SCF in stroma and that these cytokines have the potential to autoregulate NK-R.
Mixed-Integer Linear Programming Model to Assess Lithium-Ion Battery Degradation Cost

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

This work proposes a mixed-integer linear programming model for the operational cost function of lithium-ion batteries that should be applied in a microgrid centralized controller. Such a controller aims to supply loads while optimizing the leveled cost of energy, and for that, the cost function of the battery must compete with the cost functions of other energy resources, such as distribution network, dispatchable generators, and renewable sources. In this paper, in order to consider the battery lifetime degradation, the proposed operational cost model is based on the variation in its state of health (SOH). This variation is determined by experimental data that relate the number of charge and discharge cycles to some of the most important factors that degrade the lifespan of lithium-ion batteries, resulting in a simple empirical model that depends on the battery dispatch power and the current state of charge (SOC). As proof-of-concept, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulations of a real microgrid are performed considering a centralized controller with the proposed battery degradation cost function model. The obtained results demonstrate that the proposed cost model properly maintains the charging/discharging rates and the SOC at adequate levels, avoiding accelerating the battery degradation with use. For the different scenarios analyzed, the battery is only dispatched to avoid excess demand charges and to absorb extra power produced by the non-dispatchable resources, while the daily average SOC ranges from 48.86% to 65.87% and the final SOC converges to a value close to 50%, regardless of the initial SOC considered.
Deep learning-based lane change trajectory prediction

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

For fully automated driving vehicles, lane change is one of the most common and important driving scenarios, and there are many accidents caused by lane change. For a vehicle in motion, if it cannot intelligently respond to its surrounding vehicle’s lane change, risks or a poor passenger experience may arise. To address the potential risk of such scenario, autonomous driving systems(ADS) need to have a better understanding of the lane change maneuver. Specifically there are two aspects, one is lane change intention, which involves determining whether a vehicle will change lanes and in which direction, and the other is the lane change process, which is most directly represented by the trajectory. Although many approaches are proposed to predict lane change intentions, limited studies focus on lane change trajectory prediction. In this paper, we propose to bridge the gap between lane change scenario and trajectory prediction. We utilize the real-traffic datasets from Next Generation SIMulation (NGSIM) and adopt the deep learning models to predict lane change trajectories of the target vehicle. On top of that, we conduct concise data processing to precisely extract lane change examples and select features considering both the vehicle’s own driving status and its surrounding traffic conditions. Extensive experiments are carried out to demonstrate that our deep learning-based approach performs better than some existing prediction models in different feature and prediction horizon settings.

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The present study investigated the differential effects of test-induced priming on false memories evoked by Converging Associates Procedure (DRM lists) and Category Associates Procedures (Category lists). The experimental settings involved the manipulation of test order of the critical items, in relation to the list items from their corresponding lists. The significance of the study comes from the fact that it directly compares the false memories elicited by Converging Associates Procedure and Category Associates Procedures within the same experimental settings. The results demonstrated that associative processes at test affected the proportion of false recollections elicited by DRM lists more than that elicited by Category lists. The results are discussed in relation to gist based theories of false memory and activation/monitoring account.

Slovenija i Hrvatska u izvješćima Arthura Wooda DuBoisa iz 1919. i 1920. godine

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The paper is based on reports of the U.S. special representative on duty in Central Europe, Arthur Wood DuBois, on Slovenia and Croatia from December 1919 and May 1920. During his two visits, DuBois made four reports from the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes that specifically viewed the situation on Slovenian and Croatian territory, where his interlocutors were leading officials in the Provincial Governments in Ljubljana and Zagreb. His visits took place during two different and politically opposed governments, so DuBois had the opportunity to hear representatives of two political options, the centralists and the federalists. The emphasis of the paper is placed on DuBois’ account of difficulties in foreign policy relations of the Kingdom of SCS and Austria, communist activity, and differences in the political and national characteristics of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs.
