Cerebral venous air embolism after neurosurgical intervention: A case report and literature review

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: Cerebral venous air embolism is a rare complication after a routine neurosurgical intervention. The pathophysiology is not clear despite the existence of several etiologies.Case presentation: A young male patient who was operated for a traumatic epidural hematoma. Post-operatively, he presented with confusion and headache without focal neurologic deficits. A brain computed tomography showed multiple cerebral venous gas emboli in the superior sagittal sinus. He received supportive treatment with a good clinical course. Discussion: The mechanism for entrance of air into the cerebral venous circulation is thought to be through retrograde rise. It can be a potentially lethal complication with mortality dependent on the volume of air within the vessels, rate of accumulation and the affected territory.Conclusion: The aim of this case report is to highlight an exceptional and understudied complication of neurosurgical intervention.
Effects of Parameter Variations Generated by Pumping on LNAPL Migration in the Aquitard: An Analytical and Experimental Study

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

The parameter variations in the aquitard have an important influence on the migration laws of contaminants in the aquitard. In order to study the influence of dynamic changes in parameters during pumping on the migration laws of Light Non-aqueous Phase Liquid (LNAPL) in the aquitard, the one-dimensional consolidation and groundwater flow equations for the aquitard were employed to derive the governing equations for the migration of LNAPL in the aquitard. A self-designed experimental platform was developed to investigate the effects of the pore water pressure, consolidation deformation, and pumping rate on LNAPL migration during pumping. The laboratory experimental results indicated that during pumping, the migration behavior of LNAPL in the aquitard typically exhibited a trend toward the pumping well and the overlying aquifer. The closer to the pumping well, the greater the change in the pore water pressure, the greater the amount of consolidation deformation, the earlier the state of densification, and the slower the migration rate of LNAPL in the aquitard. The nearer to the bottom of the aquitard, the larger the amount of consolidation deformation in the aquitard and the slower the migration rate of LNAPL in the aquitard. Also, the pumping rate had an important influence on groundwater flow movement and contaminant migration. The characteristics of parameter variations in the aquitard and laws of LNAPL migration during pumping were systematically studied and analyzed; these research results can provide a reference for the prediction and remediation of LNAPL in contaminated sites.
The Composition of Coding Joints Formed in V(D)J Recombination Is Strongly Affected by the Nucleotide Sequence of the Coding Ends and Their Relationship to the Recombination Signal Sequences

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

V(D)J recombination proceeds in two stages. Precise cleavage at the border of the conserved recombination signal sequences (RSSs) and the coding ends results in flush double-stranded signal ends and coding ends terminating in hairpins. In the second stage, the signal and coding ends are processed into signal and coding joints. Coding ends containing certain nucleotide homopolymers affect the efficiency of V(D)J recombination. In this study, we have tested the effect of small changes in coding-end nucleotide composition on the frequency of coding- and signal joint formation. Furthermore, we have determined the sequences of coding joints resulting from recombination of coding ends with different compositions. We found that the presence of two T nucleotides 5' of both RSSs, but not a single T, reduces the frequency of signal joint formation, i.e., interferes with the cleavage stage of V(D)J recombination. However, coding-joint processing is sensitive even to a single T. Both the sequence of the coding ends and the particular RSS (12-mer or 23-mer) with which the coding end is associated affect the final composition of the coding joints. Thus, the presence of P nucleotides, the conservation of one undeleted coding end, the formation of joints without any deletions, and the template-dependent insertion of nucleotides are strongly influenced by the coding-end nucleotide composition and/or RSS association. The implications of these results with respect to the processing of coding ends are discussed.
Examining early childhood health and educational outcomes of late preterm infants in Manitoba: A population based study

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Preterm birth continues to be an important public health concern globally. Born only 3 to 6 weeks premature, findings increasingly demonstrate that the late preterm population (34-36 weeks gestational age) is not exempt from long-term risk, as the last few weeks of gestation are important for both physical and cognitive development. This study examined whether late preterm birth was associated with poorer health, development and educational outcomes in the early childhood period, after controlling for a range of medical and social factors.
Magnetization of the KDy(WO 4 ) 2 single crystal in paramagnetic phase

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

We report on the temperature and pressure dependences of the magnetization in the KDy(WO4)2 single crystal. The directions of magnetic axes in the crystal under study were established. It has been shown that at the point of the structural phase transition the Curie-Weiss temperature changes considerably. Under pressure of about 0.8 GPa the temperature of the structural phase transition increases nearly by a factor of two. As a result of the pressure effect the low temperature phase area is expanded.

Joint epidemiological longitudinal dental survey in Nigeria, especially in comparison with that of Japanese.

Field: Dentistry (Health Sciences)

Since 1980 we carried out a longitudinal dental survey in Ile-Ife, as a joint study with the dental school of Ife University, Nigeria, being supported by A Grant under The Monbusho International Scientific Research Program for ten years. One thousand one hundred seventy-one children and adults were examined in the 1991 survey. The data were compared with the data in the previous survey and Japanese survey. Results were as follows: 1) Caries prevalence rate and the average number of DMFT were still very low, especially showing that both the caries prevalence and the average number of DMFT decreased in the rural areas because the attrition proceeded faster than the caries, 2) Nigerian deciduous and permanent dentition were larger than in the Japanese in all items measured, 3) the condylar head was transformed from the round shape to the ultra-flat shape with age, 4) there was a fewer incidence of severe periodontal diseases despite of the marked deposition of calculus, 5) with respect to Nigerian foods, there was no difference between the rainy and dry seasons in both the urban and rural communities, 6) the weaning period of the baby is decided by their mother, taking care of the health of the baby, almost all babies at one year to two years and a few at three years and 7) the menu for the breakfast, lunch and supper of the baby was made considering the nutritional aspect of the baby.
Deviation of Dental Implants Placed by Guided Implant Surgery in Bone Structures with Different Densities

Field: Dentistry (Health Sciences)

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the deviations of implants with two different geometries placed with a bone-supported stereolithographic surgical template into the bone of Misch classification densities of D2, D3, and D4. Materials and Methods: Eight maxilla and eight mandible models were macrodesigned according to the jaw geometries. Bone densities of these models were created in parallel with the most frequently observed densities in the locations: D3 bone density in the anterior maxilla, D4 bone density in the posterior maxilla, D2 bone density in the anterior mandible, and D3 bone density in the posterior mandible. A bone-supported stereolithographic surgical template was prepared in accordance with the jaw models and planning and used to place 64 NobelParallel Conical Connection RP 4.3 × 13 mm and 64 NobelActive 4.3 × 13 mm implants on the models. Global deviation, lateral deviation, angular deviation, and depth deviation between planned and placed implants were calculated with Hypermesh. The Kruskal-Wallis test was used to analyze the differences between deviation data of the study groups, and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for pairwise comparisons of groups with significant differences. Significance was evaluated as P < .05. Results: The study groups showed statistical differences in terms of global, lateral, and depth deviation (P = .017, P = .044, and P = .012, respectively); no statistical difference was detected in terms of angular deviation (P > .05). When the data of all studies were evaluated, the deviation values for all maxillary and mandibular implants were examined regardless of bone and implant type; no statistical difference was found between the arches in terms of deviation type (P > .05). Conclusion: Regardless of the macrogeometry of the dental implants placed with the guide, no significant difference was observed between the deviation values of the different bone densities they were applied to.
An Ethnographic Approach on Betawi Culture: The Existence of Busker of Ondel-Ondel from Cultural Perspective

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Ondel-ondel is one of the arts in the form of a tall and large giant doll from the Betawi Tribe. Its existence can still be seen in the community, especially in Pondok Aren Village, South Tangerang. In the history of Betawi culture, ondel-ondel underwent several changes in function, at first ondel-ondel functioned as a protector, repellent of evil (catastrophe) and disturbances from spirits by the Betawi community, along with the development of the times later ondel-ondel turned its function into an entertainment in the people's party and even now ondel-ondel has shifted into a busking tool for a few people. This caused controversy in the community. The purpose of this study was to find out public opinion regarding the existence of ondel-ondel buskers from various perspectives, especially cultural perspectives. This study uses a qualitative research method with an ethnographic approach. The subjects in this study were the general public, indigenous Betawi people, Betawi community leaders and ondel-ondel buskers. The results show that not all people think that the existence of ondel-ondel buskers has a negative impact on a culture, there are some people who consider that the presence of ondel-ondel buskers indirectly introduces an art to the community and shows the community that until now ondel art -ondel still exists and its existence is maintained.
Coaxial Micro Ring Arrays Fabricated on Self‐Assembled Microtube Cavities for Resonant Light Modulation

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Abstract Composite optical microcavities, as a versatile platform for light manipulation, have been theoretically revealed that the configuration of concentrically coupled resonant trajectories can significantly enhance the coupling strength, which is however challenging in experimental preparation. Here coaxial whispering gallery resonator chains were designed and fabricated with optically coupled modes split apart by more than the free spectral range (FSR) of the cavity itself. Because such three dimensional (3D) coupled optical systems are extremely difficult to obtain with traditional processing techniques an approach is developed to release and roll‐up pre‐strained, nanostructured silicon nitride membranes into microtubular optical cavities. Parallel nano‐ridges modified on the patterned membranes form into coaxial micro ring arrays after the membrane rolls up into a microtubular structure. Energetic degeneracy, as a consequence of mode splitting exceeding the FSR, leads to interference between bonding and antibonding modes with different mode identities (mode number), resulting in novel light modulation in the form of hybrid super wave modes, which display a distinct hopping behavior resembling linear stretch modes of an oscillator chain.
Effect of Initial Population Density of Meloidogyne incognita Race 3 on the Growth of Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.)

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

In a greenhouse experiment, seedlings of kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus) cv. Tainung I were inoculated with Meloidogyne incognita race 3 at initial population densities (Pi) of 0, 100, 500, 1 000, 2 500, and 5 000 eggs + second-stage juveniles/500 cm soil. After 60 days, plant height, stalk diameter, and root and stem weights were significantly reduced at Pi = 5 000 but not at lower Pi's. Shoot dry weights were reduced 46% compared with the untreated control. The total nematode population (eggs and second-stage juveniles recovered from roots and soil) increased with increasing inoculum levels and the reproductive factor (R = final population/initial population) decreased as the initial inoculum level increased.
Are Guidelines Guiding us on How to Utilize Laboratory Tests?

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Increasing patient risks and costs associated with the delivery of health care services have been related to inappropriate and uncontrolled use of biomarkers which make evidence-based guideline recommendations for best practice increasingly important. The translation of basic scientific discoveries into clinically meaningful studies and then to evidence-based clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) or health policy is, however, not straightforward. CPGs are potentially the most influential publications as they aim to guide clinical decisions and impact patient outcomes; hence, current approaches to their development often fail scientific publication standards. Critical appraisal of CPGs has revealed that many do not involve laboratory professionals in formulating recommendations on the use of tests; the composition of the panel could influence the scope of guidelines and over-represent certain stakeholders' views; numerous CPGs do not have rigorous evidence-based methodology and miss essential information important for the correct interpretation and application of laboratory results.

South Korea-U.S. Relations

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This essay focuses on the politics around the U.S. military in Korea as a way to shed light on three challenges confronting the governments and foreign-policy elites in Seoul and Washington. The political consciousness and demands of local governments and residents in South Korea have become more salient in recent years. Nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) have also taken on a more prominent role in forging and articulating national security and foreign policy issues. These interest groups have challenged and eroded the influence of the old political and bureaucratic establishment. As a result, the future of the alliance depends as much on these forces of democratization as on external threats.

The Need for Reform of the Software Licensing Policy of the Department of Defense

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The Department of Defense has a standard policy for acquiring rights in software from private firms that is ill-suited to the kind of technology software is, to the needs the Department has to use this software, and to the needs the software industry has to impose restrictions on the government's disclosure of software. This article explains the conceptual problem with understanding software as a technology, the deficiencies with the current software acquisition policy, and what could be done to improve this policy. The article also explores the complex relationship between the DOD acquisition regulations and intellectual property law affecting the government's rights in software, and recommends ways in *Pamela Samuelson, 1986. **Professor Samuelson is an associate professor of law at the University of Pittsburgh School of Law. tThe research that underlies this article was performed while the author was the principal investigator of the Software Licensing Project (SLP) of the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) at Carnegie-Mellon University (CMU).

[Effects of jogging on mental well-being and seasonal mood variations: a randomized study with healthy women and men].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The long-term effect of jogging on mental well-being and seasonal mood variation was examined in a randomized, controlled intervention study with healthy, middle-aged, sedentary, non-smoking, white collar subjects. 17 women and 39 men were allocated to jog 2 h/week for 4 months, whereas 16 women and 22 men served as controls. After 4 months, there was a partial cross-over with the controls now taking up jogging. After 8 study months, all 38 subjects of the second jogging intervention as well as 10 women and 30 men of the first 4-month jogging period were re-examined for the second time. All participants in the second re-examination were mailed a survey questionnaire one year after beginning of the study (response rate 83%). Despite varying adherence for the exercise regimen, the 4-month "net effects" (i.e. effect in exercise group minus effect in control group) showed a significant improvement in physical fitness (endurance capacity, resting heart rate) in men, but not in women. Among the mood scales assessed, "anger" showed a marginally significant effect in men (relative decrease; p = 0.05) and "calmness" a significant effect in women (relative increase; p = 0.02); after exclusion of 4 non-compliers from analysis in women, also "vigor" (relative increase; p = 0.03) and "depressiveness" (relative decrease; p = 0.02) were significantly improved after jogging. In women, the number of kilometers run was significantly correlated with an improvement in mental well-being (Pearson's r = 0.32 with change in 4 "positive" mood scales and r = 0.57 with change in 4 "negative" mood scales). Changes in endurance capacity were not significantly related to changes in mental well-being. However, in both women and men these mental effects of jogging were superposed by clear seasonal variations in mood, i.e. by a deterioration of mental well-being during the winter months and by a slow "remission" during summer. Taking jogging-induced and seasonal effects on mood together, the magnitude of the 1-year variability in mental well-being was somewhat attenuated in those study groups jogging, with this "buffering" effect reaching statistical significance in women (p = 0.050). We conclude from this training study with normal subjects that regular jogging of approximately 10 to 15 km/week may help to diminish the deterioration of mood observed during winter months (e.g. increase in depressiveness), especially in women. Hereby, a training-induced increase in endurance capacity is apparently not a prerequisite for this long-term mental effect of jogging.
Beyond departmentalization: feminist Black Atlantic reformulations of outremer in Daniel Maximin's L'Isol soleil

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This article argues that in his 1981 novel L'Isol soleil , Daniel Maximin implicitly decentres the issue of the 1946 departmentalization law through staging multiple criss-crossings of the Black Atlantic. He is primarily interested in including French-Guadeloupean relations in a broader mapping out of the rhizomatic character of Guadeloupean culture. Because Maximin's rewriting of Guadeloupean history positions it in relation not just to France, but also to other parts of what Paul Gilroy has called the Black Atlantic, this article first outlines the similarities and differences between Maximin's and Gilroy's projects. It then investigates one strand in Maximin's Black Atlantic connections, his rewriting of recent Black Panther history. His focus is on the lives and deaths of George and Jonathan Jackson as filtered through the lens of Angela Davis's Autobiography, a major intertext in his novel. It is argued that, through his focus on female narrators, including Angela Davis, Maximin prophetically adds an important feminist facet to Gilroy's subsequent theorization of the Black Atlantic. Maximin's vision of Guadeloupean history and culture goes beyond both Francocentric departmentalization and masculinist versions of the Black Atlantic.
