Solvent Dehydration and Low Temperature Vacuum Drying for SEM Imaging of Pre‐Hatching Frog Embryos

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

ABSTRACT Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is a fundamental technique to study the morphology of anuran embryos and tadpoles. Here, we present a drying method for SEM imaging of late frog embryos using commonly available dehydration solvents such as ethanol or methanol, xylene, and applying low temperature vacuum freeze drying. Briefly, embryos from early embryonic gills development to hatching were fixed with a paraformaldehyde—glutaraldehyde mix, then dehydrated to ethanol or methanol, and then slowly dried using low temperature and constant vacuum pressure. An extra step of clearing using xylene after ethanol dehydration improved results considerably. Our protocol successfully preserved embryo shape and the morphology of fragile and delicate superficial structures (e.g., external embryonic gills, apical ectodermal microridges and surface ciliation), while avoiding the use of some SEM toxic reagents.

A case of ring-shaped osteoma with stratified squamous epithelium in the maxillary sinus

Field: Dentistry (Health Sciences)

Osteoma, a benign proliferative bony lesion, is an uncommon lesion in the maxillary sinus. We report a case of ring-shaped osteoma with stratified squamous epithelium in the left maxillary sinus. A 55-year-old man was referred to our clinic because of a radiopaque lesion in the sinus. Computed tomography disclosed a bulky highdensity mass with a cavity. The mass was pedunculated and extended from the inferior to the posterior walls of the left maxillary sinus. The mass was extirpated by opening the maxillary sinus from the canine fossa under general anesthesia. The histopathological diagnosis was osteoma consisting mainly of spongeous bone, partially overlaid with pseudostratified ciliated epithelium and containing granulation tissue covered by stratified squamous epithelium. The clinical features, histopathology, and pathogenesis of osteoma in the maxillary sinus are discussed.
Sexual and reproductive health education for women in a migrant camp in Belgrade, Serbia

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Abstract Serbia borders the European Union (EU). It hosts 18 migrant camps for migrants/refugees blocked from entering the EU. A camp in Belgrade, houses 450 people, most residing there for over a year. The women are vulnerable due to no/low education, early marriage, multiple children, perilous journeys travelled, shared basic accommodation, and uncertain status/futures. The UN sustainable development goal 3 highlights the importance of improving sexual and reproductive health (SRH) in humanitarian settings. SRH education empowers women to plan/prevent pregnancies, prevent spread of sexually transmitted infections, and to know when to see a doctor. Many migrant camps exist across Europe housing similarly vulnerable women who would benefit from SRH education. The objectives were to 1. Create a safe space for sharing SRH concerns; 2. Assess knowledge and needs; 3. Develop and deliver a bespoke SRH programme in collaboration with the women; 4. Assess impact on knowledge. I facilitated SRH discussions and built rapport, the women then completed an anonymous questionnaire assessing knowledge/needs. I developed a series of monthly SRH workshops delivered over a year. The questions posed were 1. Was SRH education needed/desired? 2. Would women attend? 3. Would SRH knowledge improve? The discussions and questionnaire demonstrated the need and desire for SRH education. 4-10 women (average 8) attended each workshop, with open discussions generated. The women's knowledge increased, extrapolated from workshop activities and qualitative feedback. These migrant women had an unmet need for SRH education, which was addressed via this programme. It demonstrated an increase in SRH knowledge, enabling informed SRH decision making and ultimately improving public health. Migrant women reside in camps across Europe, and would benefit from this programme. Creating a collaborative, bespoke SRH programme with migrant women in transit across Europe is both innovative and important. Key messages Vulnerable female migrants residing in a migrant camp in Belgrade had an unmet need/desire for sexual and reproductive health education which was addressed via a bespoke programme of SRH workshops. Migrant camps exist across Europe housing vulnerable women who urgently require access to good quality sexual and reproductive health education and care in order to improve overall public health.

The aim of this study was to explore ecological factors that contribute to marital commitment of the female migrant workers in Indramayu. This study applied qualitative approach with case study design. Data were obtained by semi structure interview, focus group discussion, observation, and document analysis. This study was conducted in Village X because this village is one of the biggest contributors of female migrant workers. Participants of this study were female migrant workers, government’s institution staff, villagers, who were selected by purposive sampling method. The finding of this study shows that the dynamic of marital relation among female migrant workers were the result of dynamic interaction bertween macrosystem, exosystem, mesosystem, and microsystem context. Thus, the intervention should be done not only in dyadic context, but also should be directed in macro context.
Molecular Aspects of Transport in Thin Films of Controlled Architecture (Final Technical Report)

Field: Chemical Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The scientific and technological objectives of this project are motivated by problems in energy technologies that utilize differential transport in nanoscale confined volumes to achieve molecular separations. The core scientific phenomena that control observable behavior - wetting/dewetting, hydrophobicity, stochastic fluctuations in fluid flow, electrokinetics, etc. - are fundamentally different on the nanoscale, because the underlying forces that direct molecular motion are altered upon scaling to nanometer dimensions. We proposed to address this overarching problem by pursuing two objectives. Objective 1 targeted the development of single molecule-based electrokinetic, electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical probes of transport in one-dimensional (1D) nanostructures. Objective 2 focused on the interaction between wetting phenomena and nanoconfined flows under active (electrical and/or electrochemical) control. The studies were intended to develop the design rules, structural motifs, and operating principles needed to achieve singular control over molecular transport in nano-confined volumes, thereby impacting a broad spectrum of energy-relevant separations processes.
WTO Law and Jurisprudence on Invasive Alien Species in the Global South

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract International trade is a significant factor in the introduction of invasive alien species around the world. The preparedness of countries through their domestic regulations to combat invasive alien species differs from country to country. This article discusses the potential of WTO law in combating the spread of invasive alien species in countries with weak environmental regulation regimes such as Botswana. It recognises the possibility of invoking provisions of WTO agreements by member states to combat the introduction and spread of invasive alien species. It concludes that the use of WTO agreements by developing countries may be an immediate solution to address and combat biodiversity losses in the global south. The article recommends the building of technical and scientific capacity by developing countries to effectively use international trade law for environmental protection.
Recycling In Bogotá: A Swot Analysis Of Three Associations To Evaluate The Integrating The Informal Sector Into Solid Waste Management

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

In emerging economies, recycling is an opportunity
for the cities to increase the lifespan of sanitary landfills, reduce the
costs of the solid waste management, decrease the environmental
problems of the waste treatment through reincorporate waste in the
productive cycle and protect and develop people’s livelihoods of
informal waste pickers. However, few studies have analysed the
possibilities and strategies to integrate formal and informal sectors in
the solid waste management for the benefit of both. This study seek
to make a strength, weakness, opportunity, and threat (SWOT)
analysis in three recycling associations of Bogotá with the aim to
understand and determine the situation of recycling from perspective
of informal sector in its transition to enter as authorized waste
providers. Data used in the analysis are derived from multiple
strategies such as literature review, the Bogota’s recycling database,
focus group meetings, governmental reports, national laws and
regulations and specific interviews with key stakeholders. Results of
this study show as the main stakeholders of formal and informal
sector of waste management can identify the internal and internal
conditions of recycling in Bogotá. Several strategies were designed
based on the SWOTs determined, could be useful for Bogotá to
advance and promote recycling as a key strategy for integrated
sustainable waste management in the city.
Effects of plant trichomes on herbivores and predators on soybeans

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Abstract Tritrophic interaction in soybean system has received increasing attention recently. However, few studies have investigated the influence of plant trichomes on the population dynamics of soybean herbivores and their natural enemies. We conducted a field survey to investigate whether soybean trichomes affected the abundance of herbivores and their predators. The results of this study show that moderately or densely pubescent trichomes have positive influences on the abundance of some herbivores (e.g., Stollia guttiger ) and predators (e.g., Propylaea japonica and Orius similes ) although the influence may change over time, while trichome types do not affect the density of soybean aphid, Aphis glycines .
Biosynthesis and Insertion of the Molybdenum Cofactor

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

The transition element molybdenum (Mo) is of primordial importance for biological systems, because it is required by enzymes catalyzing key reactions in the global carbon, sulfur, and nitrogen metabolism. To gain biological activity, Mo has to be complexed by a special cofactor. With the exception of bacterial nitrogenase, all Mo-dependent enzymes contain a unique pyranopterin-based cofactor coordinating a Mo atom at their catalytic site. Various types of reactions are catalyzed by Mo-enzymes in prokaryotes including oxygen atom transfer, sulfur or proton transfer, hydroxylation, or even nonredox reactions. Mo-enzymes are widespread in prokaryotes and many of them were likely present in the Last Universal Common Ancestor. To date, more than 50 – mostly bacterial – Mo-enzymes are described in nature. In a few eubacteria and in many archaea, Mo is replaced by tungsten bound to the same unique pyranopterin. How Mo-cofactor is synthesized in bacteria is reviewed as well as the way until its insertion into apo-Mo-enzymes.
TEACHERS’ CONTRIBUTION IN DEAFBLIND STUDENTS’ BRAILLE LITERACY

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Deafblindness constitutes a dual sensory impairment that is caused by acquired or congenital factors. Assistive technology has converted learning into an approachable good for them. Based on the literature review, braille turned out the most effective assistive device that promotes deafblind (DB) children’s literacy. However, education without human contribution cannot operate properly. For that reason, teachers play a vital role in children’s learning development and can act as the mediators of the provided knowledge. The educational personnel has to bear in mind that every DB child has unique necessities. Consequently, it is imperative need to teach them the suitable combination of methods and techniques consolidated with their knowledge and experience. This research study will employ the methodology of qualitative research as well as the method of semi-structured interviews with teachers of DB students, in order to discover efficient strategies of teaching braille that could build children’s literacy in the school environment. <p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0728/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>
Synchronous torques of a cage induction motor from time-discretized finite element analysis

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Time-discretized finite element analysis (FEA) was used for studying the synchronous torques of a 37-kW four-pole cage induction motor. The effects of slotting, magnetic saturation and connection of the stator winding on the synchronous torque dips were considered. Comparisons with an analytical model and measured results show that the 2D FEA model predicts the synchronous torques with good accuracy.

PHYSIOLOGIC SIGNIFICANCE OF THE CREATININE COEFFICIENT AND THE CREATINE TOLERANCE TEST

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Folin1as a result of his classic studies on protein metabolism in 1905 came to the conclusion that the daily creatinine output of a given person is more or less constant, is influenced by the body weight and is independent of a diet which does not contain creatine or creatinine. At this time he introduced the term "creatinine coefficient," which may be defined as the amount in milligrams of creatinine or creatinine nitrogen excreted daily per kilogram of body weight. Also, since the excretion of creatinine is independent of the diet, it is considered to represent the "endogenous metabolism" of the body, as compared to the excretion of urea, which represents the "exogenous metabolism." In Shaffer's2view, the output of creatinine represents not necessarily the endogenous metabolism but only one special phase thereof, which takes place largely, if not wholly, in the muscles. This view was later adopted
CTNI-64. MATRIX REGIMEN FOR NEWLY DIAGNOSED PRIMARY DIFFUSE B-CELL LYMPHOMA OF THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract We report our experience treating 16 patients with newly diagnosed primary diffuse B-cell lymphoma of the central nervous system with the MATRix regimen as reported by Ferreri, et al in 2016. The median age was 66 years (y); 8 patients were men and 8 were women. Fourteen had cerebral mass lesions, 1 had a paraspinal mass, and 1 leptomeningeal disease. Treatment consisted of 4 cycles of rituximab 375 mg/sq m (Days 1, 6); methotrexate 3.5 g/sq m (Day 2); cytarabine 2 g/sq m every 12 h (Days 3, 4); and thiotepa 30 mg/sq m (Day 5). Patients without disease progression received carmustine 400 mg/sq m and thiotepa 4 X 5 mg/kg followed by autologous bone marrow transplantation. Four patients were switched to MATRix after 6 cycles of methotrexate and rituximab and received only 2 initial cycles including cytarabine and thiotepa. Overall, 12 patients completed initial chemotherapy. Eleven of these 12 went on to transplantation; one patient had early disease progression and did not proceed to transplantation. All 4 patients over 70 y died early after 1–2 cycles; the median age of these was 80 y, and the causes of early death were neutropenic fever, septic thrombophlebitis, and cardiac arrest. One patient who completed the entire regimen including transplantation died of fungal pneumonia; the other 11 experienced no serious acute toxicity. One patient had late disease progression; one developed symptomatic leukoencephalopathy. Nine of the 16 patients remain alive. At a median follow-up of 23 months, median time to progression was 421 days and overall survival 564 days. These preliminary data suggest that the MATRix regimen in safe and highly effective in the newly diagnosed setting. However, the high incidence of early death in patients over 70 y suggests that the regimen may be too toxic for elderly individuals.
Olfaction in William Faulkner's fiction: exploring gender and race through the sense of smell

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Faulkner’s literature, set in the American South, imagines a rich olfactory environment. The ways in which characters employ their sense of smell provide information regarding the gender and racial stereotypes portrayed and maintained within Faulkner’s fictional communities. In my texts of focus, these communities are often characterized by misogyny, conservatism, and Christian piety. Within these narrow minded communities, an exploration of Faulkner’s olfactory landscape is important in order to examine how olfactory stimuli are interpreted and applied to the marginalized female and racially coded body. In Faulkner’s literature, smells appear to trigger male anxieties concerning the female body, anxieties related to sexuality and racial misrecognition, and scent is largely correlated to the objectification of female characters in a manner comparable to the male gaze.
Size effects in superfluid helium II - I. Experiments in porous systems

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

The properties of the superfluid phase of liquid helium are modified by size effects. We discuss here experiments on helium contained in very fine compressed powders (∼ 100 to 104 Å) : lowering of the onset temperature for superfluidity, T0, and superfluid properties for T < To : critical flow rate, specific heat, superfluid fraction. These last data are obtained from the measurement of the hydrodynamic sound velocity that propagates in such porous systems : 4th sound. We present in some detail the techniques of the measurements and the physical properties of 4th sound. A discussion of the results is presented in analogy with the study of the proximity effect in superconductors.
Evaluate effectiveness of lecture cum demonstration on knowledge and skill regarding cranial nerve assessment among B.Sc. nursing students

Field: Nursing (Health Sciences)

Teaching learning both takes place simultaneously; teaching can never be effective without an effective learning at the same an effective learning can’t take place without effective teaching. Teacher has a very vital role to play in imparting knowledge to the pupils and this is likely to occur only when the teacher is able to acknowledge the necessity of the learner. In nursing education there are many factors that are responsible for the learning process to take place. Hence, it is always the teacher who is responsible for choosing the best and effective method to deliver the best lessons to the students. The aim of this research was to identify the efficacy of lecture cum demonstration on the knowledge and skills of the nursing students regarding cranial nerve assessment. The pre-experimental research design approach was considered appropriate for conducting this study. About 200 nursing students getting education in hand-picked nursing colleges of Lucknow were considered appropriate for this study. The relevant fact was gathered using self-prepared multiple choice knowledge questionnaires and an observation check list to assess the clinical expertise of the students. The lecture cum demonstration was effectual in upgrading the knowledge and clinical expertise of the student nurses. Keywords: Lecture, Demonstration, Knowledge, Skill, Cranial nerve assessment.
Statistical Issues in Clinical Trials with Multiple Primary Endpoints

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Clinical trials often employ two or more primary endpoints because a single endpoint may not provide a comprehensive picture of the intervention's effects. In such clinical trials, a decision is generally made as to whether it is desirable to evaluate the joint effects on all endpoints (i.e., co.primary endpoints) or at least one of the endpoints. This decision defines the alternative hypothesis to be tested and provides a framework for approaching trial design. In this article, we discuss recent statistical issues in clinical trials with multiple primary endpoints. Especially, we introduce the methods for power and sample size determinations in clinical trials with co-primary endpoints, considering the correlations among the endpoints into the calculations. We also discuss the methods to alleviate conservativeness of testing co-primary endpoints.
Spin Filters and Switchers in Topological-Insulator Junctions

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

The exotic transport properties of topological insulators are very appealing for device applications, but the details of the physics in particular systems still need to be established. Using the theory of equilibrium Green's functions and topological phase transitions, the authors design several types of spintronic devices based on the properties of topological edge states in silicenelike nanoribbons, finding good spin-filter performance for these three-segment nanojunctions. Of particular interest are the discovery of Fano and Fabry-Perot resonances in these devices, and of course robustness against disorder and dephasing.
New Conjugates of Polyhydroxysteroids with Long-Chain Fatty Acids from the Deep-Water Far Eastern Starfish Ceramaster patagonicus and Their Anticancer Activity

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

Four new conjugates, esters of polyhydroxysteroids with long-chain fatty acids (1–4), were isolated from the deep-water Far Eastern starfish Ceramaster patagonicus. The structures of 1–4 were established by NMR and ESIMS techniques as well as chemical transformations. Unusual compounds 1–4 contain the same 5α-cholestane-3β,6β,15α,16β,26-pentahydroxysteroidal moiety and differ from each other in the fatty acid units: 5′Z,11′Z-octadecadienoic (1), 11′Z-octadecenoic (2), 5′Z,11′Z-eicosadienoic (3), and 7′Z-eicosenoic (4) acids. Previously, only one such steroid conjugate with a fatty acid was known from starfish. After 72 h of cell incubation, using MTS assay it was found that the concentrations of compounds 1, 2, and 3 that caused 50% inhibition of growth (IC50) of JB6 Cl41 cells were 81, 40, and 79 µM, respectively; for MDA-MB-231 cells, IC50 of compounds 1, 2, and 3 were 74, 33, and 73 µM, respectively; for HCT 116 cells, IC50 of compounds 1, 2, and 3 were 73, 31, and 71 µM, respectively. Compound 4 was non-toxic against tested cell lines even in three days of treatment. Compound 2 (20 µM) suppressed colony formation and migration of MDA-MB-231 and HCT 116 cells.
