The subcutaneous ICD-current evidence and challenges.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) represents an exciting development in ICD technology. It has relative advantages over traditional transvenous systems, particularly for young patients in whom the lifetime risk of device-related complications may be deemed to be unacceptably high. While data relating to device longevity and long term safety profile is yet to be accrued, several recent studies have demonstrated good clinical efficacy comparable to transvenous ICDs. Indeed, new techniques have also been developed to simplify the S-ICD implantation procedure and attempts have been made to address challenges pertaining to T-wave oversensing to reduce the delivery of inappropriate shocks. The impact of inappropriate shocks and lack of anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP) function are not only contentious matters, but also have important implications for patients in whom the S-ICD would be suitable. It is envisaged that subsequent models of this device will be less cumbersome, with the possibility that an entirely leadless pacemaker-defibrillator will one day be possible. Although the S-ICD may not completely replace transvenous devices in its current form, evidence suggests that it is a viable alternative particularly in preventing sudden cardiac death in non-pacing dependent patients.

The SEC’s final rule regarding price quotes and research reports relating to security-based swaps

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Purpose This paper aims to summarize the requirements of a new US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rule regarding certain communications relating to security-based swaps in the context of the SEC’s ongoing efforts to establish its regulatory regime for such swaps. Design/methodology/approach This paper provides a close analysis of an SEC final rule that provides that certain communications relating to security-based swaps will not constitute “offers” for purposes of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, under which generally offers or sales of a security must be registered or made pursuant to an exemption from registration. The paper also analyzes the prospects for a general exemption from registration requirements for security-based swaps involving eligible contract participants, and it places the final rule in the context of the SEC’s broader efforts to establish its final rules for security-based swaps. Findings In addition to detailing the requirements of the final rule, this paper concludes that it is unlikely that the SEC will decide, generally, to exempt many security-based swaps from registration requirements, and that it is likely that a significant amount of time will elapse before the SEC finalizes most of its remaining rules for security-based swaps. Originality/value This paper contains valuable information regarding the regulation of security-based swaps in the context of securities regulation and the SEC’s other rules for such swaps.
Planning the Reconquista of Venetian Istria

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The author critically edits, translates into English, and analyzes the Treaty of Pazin, a pact signed between Count Albert I of Gorizia and the Commune of Koper on July 27, 1278. The signees forged a military alliance directed against Venice, with the aim of reconquering the Istrian lands that had subjected themselves to the Venetian Commune between 1267 and 1271, that is, Poreč, Umag, Novigrad and Sveti Lovreč. First, the background leading up to the signing of this treaty is thoroughly illuminated, revealing the evolutionary thread that tied the two contrahents together in their Istrian ventures. Thus, the alliance formed in Pazin in 1278 was but a continuation of the joint efforts of the Gorizian and the Capodistrian commune, the duo’s first undertaking being the war against Patriarch Gregory fought in 1267 and 1268–1269. Second, the treaty itself is broken down, contextualized, and analyzed from the diplomatic point of view. It is shown that the document in question is a notarial sealed charter and that the surviving manuscript is one of the two originals issued in Pazin, that is, the Capodistrian exemplar. The paper then turns to the aftermath of the joint actions undertaken by the Gorizian-Capodistrian alliance, showing that the anti-Venetian coalition failed to achieve their primary objective, even though their initial prospects for achieving their goals had been high. The paper closes with an in extenso critical edition of the Treaty of Pazin and its translation into contemporary English.
PATIENT PERCEPTIONS OF THE QUALITY OF HEALTH SERVICES

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

▪ Abstract As calls are made for a more patient-centered health care system, it becomes critical to define and measure patient perceptions of health care quality and to understand more fully what drives those perceptions. This chapter identifies conceptual and methodological issues that make this task difficult, including the confusion between patient perceptions and patient satisfaction and the difficulty of determining whether systematic variations in patient perceptions should be attributed to differences in expectations or actual experiences. We propose a conceptual model to help unravel these knotty issues; review qualitative studies that report directly from patients on how they define quality; provide an overview of how health plans, hospitals, physicians, and health care in general are currently viewed by patients; assess whether and how patient health status and demographic characteristics relate to perceptions of health care quality; and identify where further, or more appropriately designed, research is needed. Our aim is to find out what patients want, need and experience in health care, not what professionals (however well-motivated) believe they need or get. Through the Patient's Eyes ( 23 )
Roman L. Antropov’s The Genius of Russian Detection, I. D. Putilin: The Case of Gothicism

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Serial ?he Genius of Russian Detection, I. D. Putilin, written by Russian author Roman Lukich Antropov (Roman Dobryi) at the beginning of the twentieth century, undoubtedly falls into the category of detective fiction; however, the titles of its individual instalments, such as The Secrets of Okhten Cemetery, The Bloodsucking Vampires of Petersburg, The Spring of Volga Sectarians etc., suggest a strong influence of Gothic literature. The article aims to expose the presence of Gothic literary devices in Antropov’s stories, including the introduction of supernatural monsters, namely ghosts and vampires, dismal atmosphere, sublime locations, structures, and objects, causing temporal distancing from the present into the past, suspenseful episodes invoking terror, and horror-infusing visualities. Moreover, the article proposes that the intention behind these elements is not merely to complicate the mystery and intensify the reader’s experience but also to convey cultural meaning related to the social anxieties of the time.
Unlocking the potential of oat straw: Efficient pretreatment methods for enhanced glucose production

Field: Chemical Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The excellent physical and chemical properties of deep eutectic solvents, especially the ability of some of them to dissolve biomass, make them broadly applicable in biomass pretreatment. In this study, oat straw was pretreated with deep eutectic solvents composed of choline chloride and an acid (formic, lactic, or oxalic acid). The highest reducing sugar yield was obtained for the formic acid/choline chloride mixture. Using a pretreatment temperature of 110 °C, a reaction time of 2 h, and a solid-liquid ratio of 1:20, the reducing sugar yield obtained by cellulase hydrolysis was 23.5%, the degradation rate of cellulose reached 76.9%, and hemicellulose was completely degraded. The pretreated oat straw was then analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. The changes in its crystallinity and lignin content compared to the untreated specimen were determined. A preliminary mechanism for the pretreatment of oat straw with formic acid/choline chloride was revealed. The study could provide an opportunity to expand the application in biochemicals or biological feed processes.

Multisensory Integration at Peak Limb Velocity

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

The current thesis focused on multisensory integration during rapid upper-limb movements, specifically at peak limb velocity (PLV). Participants were required to “fling” their limb through a virtual target while aligning PLV with the target. In Experiment 1, participants were provided with augmented: auditory, visual, audiovisual, or no feedback at peak limb velocity. In Experiment 2, participants completed the same flinging task. At PLV, participants were exposed to either two: auditory beeps, visual flashes, or audiovisual events. Participants then indicated which sensory cue was presented first (i.e., left or right of the target) in a within modality temporal order judgment task. This judgment was also made following stimuli presentation at rest. Across both experiments, the results failed to reveal an audiovisual (i.e., bimodal) advantage over unisensory stimuli presentation (i.e., auditory or visual cues alone), suggesting that the optimal integration of audiovisual information may not occur at peak limb velocity.

Bringing Science Into the Classroom by Basing Craft on Research

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

In response to Crockett's analysis of the relation of science and the instruction of students with learning disabilities, we discuss reasons why teaching in special education is infrequently affected by science and research, and we propose a model of naturalistic decision making and make recommendations for bridging the gap between research and practice based on that model. By building an extensive experiential base in using effective practices, we propose that teachers can become experts at the craft of applying research-based methods. Bringing science into the classroom by basing craft on research in this way represents one promising alternative for improving outcomes for students with and without learning disabilities.

A LIGHT MICROSCOPICAL STUDY OF ISOLATED FOLLICULAR DENDRITIC CELL‐CLUSTERS IN HUMAN TONSILS

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

In order to re‐examine the cellular structure of isolated FDC‐culsters in the germinal centers of human tonsils, a light microscopical analysis was made. Approximately 14 FDC‐clusters were recovered from one enucleated germinal center using the enzyme digestion technique. The minimum unit of the FDC‐clusters was composed of one FDC and 8 to 9 lymphocytes. Most of the FDC‐clusters were representative of the microenvironment of the light zone at the germinal center in situ. Half of the engulfed centrocytes were supposed to be at the G 0 phase, and the others at the G, to G 2 phase. It is suspected that the helper‐T cell has some relationship to the FDC microenvironment, and that the suppressor‐T cell does not. Most of the CIgG‐containing cells in the germinal centers were considered to have infiltrated into the interspace of the FDC microenvironment.
Neutrosophic Neutrosophic Hypothesis to validate a Reform Project to Article 87 of the General Organic Code of Processes of Ecuador

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract. Based on the fact that, according to the legislation in force in Ecuador, the appearance at hearings is mandatory for all those who intervene in a case to such an extent that their non-attendance is sanctioned in one case and abandoned in another, without taking into account that this absence may have been due to a fortuitous event or force majeure. The present investigation is focused on validating a project to reform Article 87 of the General Organic Code of Processes focused on making it possible to justify the defendant's absence. For the validation, a Neutrosophic Hypothesis was used, which allowed to demonstrate that the lawyers of Los Ríos Province are at least partially in agreement with the proposed reform.
ReLFA: Resist link flooding attacks via renyi entropy and deep reinforcement learning in SDN-IoT

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Link flooding attack (LFA) is a fresh distributed denial of service attack (DDoS). Attackers can cut off the critical links, making the services in the target area unavailable. LFA manipulates legal low-speed flow to flood critical links, so traditional technologies are difficult to resist such attack. Meanwhile, LFA is also one of the most important threats to Internet of things (IoT) devices. The introduction of software defined network (SDN) effectively solves the security problem of the IoT. Aiming at the LFA in the software defined Internet of things (SDN-IoT), this paper proposes a new LFA mitigation scheme ReLFA. Renyi entropy is to locate the congested link in the data plane in our scheme, and determines the target links according to the alarm threshold. When LFA is detected on the target links, the control plane uses the method based on deep reinforcement learning (DRL) to carry out traffic engineering. Simulation results show that ReLFA can effectively alleviate the impact of LFA in SDN IoT. In addition, the rerouting time of ReLFA is superior to other latest schemes.
Soybeans, 1993 Variety Recommendations (1992 Crop Performance Trials)

Successful soybean production is affected greatly by variety selection for a given growing area. This publication contains variety recommendations, descriptions, and yield data for soybeans. Important factors in variety selection include: yield, maturity, plant height, lodging resistance, and Phytophthora root rot resistance (see SDSU Soybean Traits Evaluated--All Entries, page 2). In the case of public varieties, additional information is available which may aid you in variety selection. Such information includes relative maturity, emergence, shattering, and iron chlorosis scores (see Regional Soybean Traits Evaluated--Public Entries, pages 2-3).
Interacting quintessence, the coincidence problem, and cosmic acceleration

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Faced by recent evidence for a flat universe dominated by dark energy, cosmologists grapple with deep cosmic enigmas such as the cosmological constant problem, extreme fine-tuning and the cosmic coincidence problem. The extent to which we observe the dimming of distant supernovae suggests that the cosmic acceleration is as least as severe as in cosmological constant models. Extrapolating this to our cosmic future implies terrifying visions of either a cold and empty universe or an explosive demise in a ``Big Rip.'' We construct a class of dynamical scalar field models of dark energy and dark matter. Within this class we can explain why supernovae imply a cosmic equation of state $w\\lesssim-1$, resolve fine tuning issues, protect the universe from premature acceleration and predict a constant fraction of dark energy to dark matter in the future (thus solving the coincidence problem), satisfy the dominant energy condition, and ensure that gravitationally bound objects remain so forever (avoid a Big Rip). This is achieved with a string theory inspired Lagrangian containing standard kinetic terms, exponential potentials and couplings, and parameters of order unity.
Research and application of integrated seismic exploration technology in benefit development of coalbed methane (CBM)

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

Summary Qinshui Basin is a tectonic basin formed at the end of the Mesozoic era, and is the most abundant area of Carboniferous-Permian coal resources in North China. In the south of Qinshui Basin, the surface undulates violently, the thickness of the main coal seam is thin (1–10m), the burial depth is shallow (400–1500m), and the small fault is developed. It is difficult to predict the coal reservoir. In order to clarify the structure, the development characteristics of the thin coal seam, and improve the drilling success rate, the largest coalbed methane 3D seismic in Qinshui Basin has been deployed. Based on the actual needs of production, this research aims to tackle key problems and form technologies such as 3D seismic acquisition, broadband high-fidelity processing, and comprehensive evaluation of coalbed methane desserts for the development of coalbed methane economic benefits. This research has laid a high quality and fidelity research result for promoting the economic and efficient implementation of 3D seismic exploration of coalbed methane in the south of Qinshui Basin and guiding the deployment of development wells. Practice has proved that 3D seismic integrated seismic exploration technology has important guiding significance for efficient development of coalbed methane.
Bladder Preservation Protocols in the Treatment of Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background Over the last 3 decades, we have seen a paradigm shift in our approach to the treatment of malignancy. During that time, organ conservation protocols have become standard in the treatment of breast cancer, laryngeal cancer, esophageal cancer, anal cancer and soft tissue sarcomas. Methods Data from reports of bladder preservation protocols were reviewed to evaluate organ preservation approaches in muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Results These trials have shown equivalent disease control rates when compared to radical surgery, with the advantage of organ function preservation. In spite of this, organ preservation efforts in muscle-invasive bladder cancer have lagged behind this overall trend in clinical oncology. However, efforts by several investigators over the last 2 decades have shown that for a number of selected patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer, bladder preservation is feasible without an apparent compromise of overall survival. Conclusions Bladder preservation therapy with a trimodality approach for a carefully selected patient population is safe and effective. Formal randomized trials comparing radical cystectomy and trimodality bladder-sparing therapy are justified.
