Foetal Activity Detection Using Deep Convolution Neural Networks

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Ultrasound is a conventional diagnostic instrument employed in prenatal care to track the progression and advancement of the fetus. In routine clinical obstetric assessments, the standard planes of fetal ultrasound hold considerable importance in evaluating fetal growth metrics and identifying abnormalities. In this work, a method to detect FFSP using deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) architecture to improve detection efficiency is presented. Squeeze net, 16 convolutional layers with small 3x3 large kernel, and all three layers form the proposed DCNN. The final pooling layer uses global average pooling (GAP) to reduce inconsistency in the network. This helps reduce the problem of overfitting and improves the performance from different training data. To improve cognitive performance, data augmentation methods developed specifically for FFSP are used in conjunction with adaptive learning strategies. Extensive testing shows that the proposed method gives accuracy of 96% which outperforms traditional methods, and DCNN is an important tool to identify FFSP in clinical diagnosis.
The Evaluation of Clinical Manifestations of Maternal and Neonates in Covid-19-Infected Pregnant Women Referred to Amir Al-Almomenin Ali Hospital in Zabol

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background & Objective: Determining the clinical manifestations of COVID-19 in pregnant and recently pregnant women is important to identify risk factors in order to evaluate complications and maternal and perinatal outcomes. The aim of the present study was to investigate the symptoms of COVID-19 in pregnant women and its effects on the newborn.Materials & Methods: The Now study was a prospective descriptive study. This research was conducted in 2020 on 101 pregnant women with COVID-19 infection admitted to the intensive care unit in Zabol city, Iran. All studied patients were examined in terms of clinical symptoms, maternal and neonatal complications, and laboratory findings such as WBC and ESR in all patients were checked. Finally, all information was entered into each patient's form and by using SPSS V22 software analyzed.Results: Number of 101 pregnant women participated in the study, with an average age of 31.09 years. In this study, 93 individuals had PCR positive (92.1%), 84 individuals with COVID+ in CT scan (83.2%), 25 individuals with an underlying disease (24.8%), and 54 individuals with addiction (53.5%). 20 feet (19.8%) were reported. 20 deaths (19.8%) were reported. The average BMI of the participants was 25.46. Among maternal complications, pulmonary involvement (71.28%) the most frequently was reported. Among the hospitalized patients (95 individuals), 25 individuals had underlying diseases. In this population, maternal complications were significantly more reported (P value=0.012). Among neonatal complications, the most common cases of death were IUFD and abortion. 62.1% of the participants had a natural delivery and 63.4% had a term delivery.Conclusion: Fever, throat redness and swelling, respiratory distress and cough are the most common clinical symptoms and lung involvement is the most common complication of COVID infection in pregnant mothers. In infants, IUFD and abortion were also very common. PCR and CT scan are two high-sensitivity tests for detecting COVID.
Estradiol Stimulated the Binding of Epidermal Growth Factor in Cultured Rat Granulosa Cells.

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

The effect of estradiol on the binding of epidermal growth factor (EGF) was investigated in a rat granulosa cell culture system. Cultured granulosa cells without estradiol possess an EGF receptor with a Kd value of 7.4 x 10(-10) M and binding sites of 1.45 x 10(3) molecules per cell. The addition of estradiol to the culture media resulted in an increase in the binding of EGF in a dose-dependent manner at concentration between 10(-9) M and 10(-7) M. Estradiol at 10(-7) M produced a 2.5-fold increase in the number of binding sites without affecting the binding affinity. An increase in the binding was observed as early as after 6 h incubation. The addition of testosterone alone had no effect on the EGF binding. However, in the presence of follicle stimulating hormone, it increased the binding dose-dependently. The stimulatory effect of testosterone was completely abolished by an aromatase inhibitor, thus suggesting that estradiol converted from testosterone could be a contributing factor in the mechanism of testosterone action. These observations imply that estradiol may play a role in regulating growth and the differentiation of granulosa cells by modulating the EGF binding.
Study of Contemporary Amblyopia Categorisation and Further Grouping Research

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

为了提高对弱视分类的深入认识，完善对弱视研究分组的系统化。笔者观察弱视概念有双眼矫正视力相差为2行以上，国际上当对弱视屈光参差而有认可为双眼屈光力、等效球镜相差 ≥ 0.50 D时，分析当其单眼斜视、屈光参差、形觉剥夺或双眼高度屈光不正等分别逐步相遇时的结果得出其唯有三个主要分类：即屈光参差性弱视、单眼注视综合征性弱视以及斜视联合屈光参差性弱视，结合其临床研究做出可分为36个小组，并提醒要注意规避严重影响同质、齐同、均衡的可能性因素，如重度性、近视性、非立体视性弱视等，笔者提出“视力康复弹簧效应现象”的假说；对其三个分类性质比喻为“三个阶梯”，治疗需经历“三级跳”；并预测未来人们对屈光不正性弱视、斜视性弱视的印象将会逐渐地淡化。 The aim of this article is to further investigate the categorization of Amblyopia, in order to form a systematic, comprehensive grouping for future Amblyopia researches. The author observed cases for vision correction with more than 2 lines, as well as Anisometropia with 0.5 D or more discrepancies between both eyes spherical equivalent. The author further studied the result and effect of different combination among Single Eye Strabismus, Anisometropia, Dep- rivation, Refractive Error etc., and came to a conclusion that there should be only 3 major categories. They are Ani- sometropic Amblyopia, Monofixation Syndrome Amblyopia and Strabismus combining with Anisometropic Amblyopia, of which can be classified into 36 groups for clinical research. It is important for researchers to be careful and avoid the potential source which will jeopardise the “equivalent”, “same nature” and “balance” between cases, such as severe case of Amblyopia, Non-stereo acuity, just to name a few. The author then raises the “Spring-like Effect of Vision Re- habilitation” hypothesis, to describe the 3 categories as “3 steps” of treatments. Furthermore, the author also predicts that Anisometropia and Strabismus will no longer be a major concern for public.

In situ phytoremediation of PAH-contaminated soil by intercropping alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) with tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) and associated soil microbial activity

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

A 7-month field experiment was conducted to investigate the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) remediation potential of two plant species and changes in counts of soil PAH-degrading bacteria and microbial activity. Alfalfa and tall fescue were grown in monoculture and intercropped for 7 months in contaminated field soil. Soil and plant samples were analyzed for PAHs. Plant biomass, densities of PAH-degradation soil bacteria, soil microbial biomass C and N, enzyme activities, and the physiological profile of the soil microbial community were determined. Average removal percentage of total PAHs in intercropping (30.5%) was significantly higher than in monoculture (19.9%) or unplanted soil (−0.6%). About 7.5% of 3-ring, 12.3% of 4-ring, and 17.2% of 5(+6)-ring PAHs were removed from the soil by alfalfa, with corresponding values of 25.1%, 10.4%, and 30.1% for tall fescue. Intercropping significantly enhanced the remediation efficiency. About 18.9% of 3-ring, 30.9% of 4-ring, and 33.4% of 5(+6)-ring PAHs were removed by the intercropping system. Higher counts of soil culturable PAH-degrading bacteria and elevated microbial biomass and enzyme activities were found after intercropping. Soil from intercropping showed significantly higher (p < 0.05) average well-color development obtained by the BIOLOG Ecoplate assay and Shannon–Weaver index compared with monoculture. Cropping promoted the dissipation of soil PAHs. Tall fescue gave greater removal of soil PAHs than alfalfa, and intercropping was more effective than monoculture. Intercropping of alfalfa and tall fescue may be a promising in situ bioremediation strategy for PAH-contaminated soils.
[Short-Term Outcomes of Laparoscopic-Assisted Total Gastrectomy Using the Endoscopic Purse-String Suture Instrument ENDO-PSI].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Laparoscopic-assisted total gastrectomy(LATG)has several complications early during the introduction of the procedure, so a careful approach is necessary. In this study, we evaluated short-term outcomes after LATG at our hospital. From 2014 to 2017, 21 patients underwent LATG using ENDO-PSI. A 6-cm midline incision was made at the epigastrium, and the abdominal esophagus was transected using ENDO-PSI. The anvil head was fixed with extracorporeal ligation, and an end loop was added to the proximal side of the first suture. Reconstruction was performed with the Roux-en-Y method. The jejunojejunal anastomosis was performed extracorporeally, and esophagojejunostomy was performed using a circular stapler through the small incision. There were 15 men and 6 women, with a mean age of 74 years. The mean operation time was 296 min, and volume of blood loss was 75 mL. The median fasting period was 3(3-10)days, and the postoperative hospitalization period was 12(8-28)days. The postoperative complications were Grade Ⅱ in 4 patients and Grade Ⅲ in 1 patient. The complication due to esophagojejunostomy was anastomotic leakage in 1 patient, while no anastomotic stenosis was found. LATG using ENDO-PSI can be safely performed.
Pedestrian tracking from an unmanned aerial vehicle

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

In this paper we present a scheme for pedestrian tracking from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), which includes the motion control of the UAV, and the visual tracking of a specific pedestrian from the moving platform. In the visual tracking part, we use an online updating feature queue and the Locality-constrained Linear Coding (LLC) method to match the pedestrian target. The ground station receives video stream from the UAV, and sends back commands to control the UAV's motion. If one pedestrian is specified as the target when the UAV is hovering, the UAV will track the pedestrian and keep a fixed distance from it. We only use visual information, which comes from the single front camera of the flying robot; no any GPS device is used. A Parrot AR Drone 2.0 and a Parrot Bebop 2 are adopted in the experiments, which are carried on in outdoor conditions, and experimental results verify the effectiveness of our scheme.
A Holistic Approach to Utilize Mycorrhizae for Improving Soil Health and Enhancing Yield of Wheat in Bangladesh

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) species may have positive impacts on wheat productivity through translocation of nutrients within wheat plant tissue. To quantify effect of mycorrhizae species on wheat plant productivity, two experiments were conducted in this study. One preliminary seedlings growth experiment was conducted in sand culture to reckon exact mycorrhizae effect on wheat seedlings growth response and changes in sand properties due to mycorrhizae inoculation. Another pot experiment was conducted to quantify wheat productivity, nutrient content within wheat plant tissue and changes in soil physiochemical characteristics due to four mycorrhizae species amendment. Result showed that wheat seedling responded better due to mycorrhizae inoculation. Mycorrhizae inoculation also improves nutrient content within wheat seedlings tissue and store carbon in sand. Finding also showed that mycorrhizae species inoculation increased growth and yield of wheat as well as phosphorus accumulation within wheat grain. Both experiments showed that mycorrhizae species inoculums store carbon in soil and within wheat plant tissue. J. of Sci. and Tech. Res. 3(1): 01-10, 2021
A Zigbee Based Cost-Effective Home Monitoring System Using WSN

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

WSNs are vital in a variety of applications, including environmental monitoring, industrial process control, and healthcare. WSNs are a network of spatially scattered and dedicated sensors that monitor and record the physical conditions of the environment.Significant obstacles to WSN efficiency include the restricted power and processing capabilities of individual sensor nodes and the issues with remote and inaccessible deployment sites. By maximising power utilisation, enhancing network effectiveness, and ensuring adaptability and durability through dispersed and decentralised operation, this study suggests a comprehensive approach to dealing with these challenges. The suggested methodology involves data compression, aggregation, and energy-efficient protocol. Using these techniques, WSN life-times can be increased and overall performance can be improved. In this study we also provide methods to collect data generated by several nodes in the WSN and store it in a remote cloud such that it can be processed and analyzed whenever it is required.

The energetic gamma ray experiment telescope (EGRET) was activated on April 15, and the first month of operations was devoted to verification of the instrument performance. Measurements made during that month and in the subsequent sky survey phase have verified that the instrument time resolution, angular resolution, and gamma ray detection efficiency were all within nominal limits.< >
Creating a repeatable framework for campus communication

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

IT Services are provided to campuses in a variety of different environments. Failure to keep customers aware of the status of major enterprise level services can quickly generate a variety of problems: an overburdened help desk, longer hold times, erratic communication within IT, and customer dissatisfaction. In this paper we explore the approach the West Georgia took to develop a communication strategy to mitigate challenges by enhancing how IT positions itself to manage customer expectations through informed, constant, proactive updates using multiple channels. The result was a step-by-step, phased framework approach. By approaching the implementation in phases, the school worked in manageable steps with clearly defined objectives for each phase. Each step is solution-independent and can be implemented using the best-fit approach for any school. We believe this model holds great value, not only in its ability to improve customer relationships, but also in its ability to be adapted to fit any organization, based upon need.
A Comparison of Day-Long Recording Stability and Muscle Force Prediction between BSN-Based Mechanomyography and Electromyography

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Day-long continuous monitoring requires stable sensors that can minimise the effects of drift and maintain high accuracy and precision over time. We have recently shown that our inertial motion tracking system can capture stable kinematic data, calibrated against ground-truth over a long period of time. However, for many clinical and daily life activities, it is also essential to monitor the muscle-activity. In this study, we evaluate the long-term recording stability of our prototype mechanomyography (MMG) sensors as an extension to our existing ETHO1 body sensor network platform. We attached the MMG sensors along with commercial high-accuracy EMG electrodes on the arm muscles of 5 subjects throughout a working day of 9 hours. The subjects followed their daily routine but they had to perform a multi-level force-matching task through flexion and extension of their arm during four short sessions of the day, as measures of practical signal quality. We designed a force predictor that used either EMG or MMG signals to predict the forces generated by subjects. Our prototype low-cost MMG channels have shown comparable results (RMSE: 23N and R2: 0.91) in predicting the force levels applied when compared against the commercial high-accuracy EMG sensor (RMSE: 19N and R2: 0.95).
Distributed Admm with Limited Communications Via Deep Unfolding

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Distributed optimization arises in various applications. A widely-used distributed optimizer is the distributed alternating direction method of multipliers (D-ADMM) algorithm, which enables agents to jointly minimize a shared objective by iteratively combining local computations and message exchanges. However, D-ADMM often involves a large number of possibly costly communications to reach convergence, limiting its applicability in communications-constrained networks. In this work we propose unfolded D-ADMM, which facilitates the application of D-ADMM with limited communications using the emerging deep unfolding methodology. We utilize the conventional D-ADMM algorithm with a fixed number of communications rounds, while leveraging data to tune the hyperparameters of each iteration of the algorithm. By doing so, we learn to optimize with limited communications, while preserving the interpretability and flexibility of the original D-ADMM algorithm. Our numerical results demonstrate that the proposed approach dramatically reduces the number of communications utilized by D-ADMM, without compromising on its performance.
Social Media, Organizational Identity and Public Relations

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Public relations has been swift to grasp social media, yet its impact on public relations practice remains relatively unexplored. This book focusses on a way of understanding organizational identity construction in a virtual context, developing scholarship on the importance of a virtual presence in PR management, and further, to make sense of these identities as authentic, legitimate or plausible. Through a diverse group of empirical case studies, this book explores the global perspective on organizational identities which transcend global boundaries via the internet including Volkswagen's emissions scandal and Monsanto and organized social media protests. It also explores crowdfunding – an emerging form of capitalist development constructed through sensemaking in social media. By looking at the emergence of organization in today's social media environment, it identifies how the interactive is created on a digitally mediated platform, sharing knowledge and engaging individuals in organizational identity construction. Viewing the social construction of organizational identities through this lens, this innovative book locates how identities are plausible, authentic and legitimate - or not – through their ongoing communication via social media. It will be of great interest to academics teaching and researching in public relations, organisational communication and social media.
User-Centered Design and Comparison of Two Electronic Health Record Tools to Support the Ordering of Crisantaspase Recombinant Chemotherapy

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

PURPOSE Chemotherapy ordering errors can have serious safety implications in pediatric oncology. Computerized provider order entry systems may reduce chemotherapy ordering errors. Crisantaspase recombinant (crisantaspase) is a chemotherapy drug used in pediatric leukemia that poses significant safety risk when ordering because of complex dosing and monitoring. The aim of this study was to compare errors, satisfaction, and efficiency between two approaches to ordering in our electronic health record: namely, the standard treatment plan order group (OG) and a novel supportive care plan (SCP). METHODS We recruited oncology providers and nurses at an academic pediatric institution. Providers were asked to complete two simulated chemotherapy ordering sessions using the treatment plan OG and the SCP. Order entry errors were assessed in seven domains, and the total number of order entry errors was calculated. Satisfaction was assessed using a five-point Likert scale, and satisfaction was defined as answering “Agree” or “Strongly Agree” to all five satisfaction questions. Efficiency was compared by measuring the time to complete the task. Errors, satisfaction, and efficiency were compared between the two tools. RESULTS We enrolled 14 providers and five nurses. The proportion of chemotherapy ordering errors was significantly lower with the SCP (5 of 98, 5.1%) compared with the treatment plan OG (11 of 98, 11.2%; P < .01). The SCP significantly improved provider efficiency, reducing the time taken to complete order entry from 16.3 minutes with the OG to 7.7 minutes with the SCP (mean difference, 8.6 minutes; P < .001). Provider satisfaction was significantly higher with the SCP (12 of 14, 85.7%) compared with the treatment plan OG (2 of 14, 14.2%; P < .001). CONCLUSION Use of a novel SCP instead of a tradition treatment plan OG improved provider efficiency and satisfaction while decreasing order entry errors. Thoughtful design and usability testing of chemotherapy order tools is needed to maximize their utility.
