The Duplicity of Protection—Prosecuting Frightened Victims: An Act of Gender-Based Violence

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This article considers the recent developments in the prosecution of perpetrators and victims of domestic violence, and focuses on domestic and European Court of Human Rights' jurisdiction. Particular consideration is given to hearsay and bad character provisions (Criminal Justice Act 2003) in bolstering the prosecution of perpetrators. The article examines the application by judges of the ‘interests of justice’ and ‘fairness' tests in the admission of such evidence. The recent prosecution of victims of domestic violence for contempt of court and perverting the course of justice because of their failure to give evidence is a serious breach of the state's obligation to protect, is vindictive and oppressive and, as such, perpetuates gender-based violence.
Figure S1 from The influence of wing morphology upon the dispersal, geographical distributions and diversification of the Corvides (Aves; Passeriformes)

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

New species are sometimes known to arise as a consequence of the dispersal and establishment of populations in new areas. It has nevertheless been difficult to demonstrate an empirical link between rates of dispersal and diversification, partly because dispersal abilities are challenging to quantify. Here, using wing morphology as a proxy for dispersal ability, we assess this relationship among the global radiation of corvoid birds. We found that species distributions are associated with wing shape. Widespread species (occurring on both islands and continents), and those that are migratory, exhibit wing morphologies better adapted to long-distance flight compared with sedentary continental or insular forms. Habitat preferences also strongly predict wing form, with species that occur in canopies and/or areas of sparse vegetation possessing dispersive morphologies. By contrast, we found no significant differences in diversification rates among either the migratory or habitat classifications, but species distributed in island settings diversify at higher rates than those found on continents. This latter finding may reflect the elevated dispersal capabilities of widespread taxa, facilitating the radiation of these lineages across insular areas. However, as the correlations between wing morphology and diversification rates were consistently weak throughout our dataset, this suggests that historical patterns of diversification are not particularly well reflected by present-day wing morphology.
Manipulation of Electronic and Magnetic Properties of 3d Transition Metal (Cr, Mn, Fe) Hexamers on Graphene with Vacancy Defects: Insights from First-Principles Theory

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

One of the possible ways to introduce magnetism in graphene is to trap highly mobile transition metal atoms at defect sites in graphene. In this paper, based on Born–Oppenheimer molecular dynamics simulations, we investigated the self-assembly of transition metal hexamers X6 (X = Cr, Mn, and Fe) on graphene with mono/divacancy defects and studied the fundamental electronic and magnetic properties of the resulting X6 clusters on graphene. Interestingly, the ground state Cr6 and Fe6 hexamers on divacancy defects in graphene show quite small energy differences between in-plane and out-of-plane magnetism. By applying external electric fields, the easy axis of magnetization can be switched between in-plane and out-of-plane, which demonstrates potential applications in electric field-assisted magnetic recording and quantum computing.
Individual Development Accounts and Homeownership among Low-income Adults with Disabilities

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

We examined the long-term effects of Individual Development Accounts (IDAs), savings accounts that match funds deposited by participants for qualified purposes, on homeownership rates among study participants with disabilities in a randomized experiment. Results from a 10-year follow-up of the IDAs indicate that rates of homeownership were nearly 10 percentage points higher for treatment participants with disabilities than for control-group members with disabilities ( p < .10). The impacts of IDAs seem to vary with the baseline socioeconomic characteristics of participants—particularly with homeownership, bank account ownership, and public housing assistance. We conclude by discussing policy implications of using asset-building programs to support people with disabilities.
Simultaneous detection and identification of Peste des petits ruminants Virus Lineages II and IV by MCA-Based real-time quantitative RT-PCR assay within single reaction

Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

Abstract Background Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) disease is a cross-species infectious disease that severely affects small ruminants and causes great losses to livestock industries in various countries. Distinguishing vaccine-immunized animals from naturally infected animals is an important prerequisite for the eradication of PPR. At present PPRV are classified into lineages I through IV, and only one vaccination strain, Nigeria/75/1, belongs to lineage II, but all of the epidemic strains in China at present are from lineage IV. Results To achieve this goal, we developed an SYBR Green I real-time qRT-PCR method for rapid detection and identification of PPRV lineages II and IV by analyzing different melting curve analyses. The negative amplification of other commonly circulating viruses such as orf virus, goat poxvirus, and foot-and-mouth disease virus demonstrated that primers targeting the L gene of PPRV were extremely specific. The sensitivity of the assay was assessed based on plasmid DNA and the detection limit achieved was 100 copies of PPRV lineages II and IV. Conclusion Since the method has high sensitivity, specificity, and reproducibility, it will be effectively differentiated PPRV lineages II from PPRV lineages IV in PPRV infected animals.
Isozyme Classification of Myanmar Rice Cultivars Resistant to Bacterial Blight.

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The analysis of five isozyme loci ; Pgi-1. Pgi-2. Amp-1, Amp-2, and Amp-3 identified Isozyme types (Isotypes) for the cultivars resistant to bacterial blight (BB) in Myanmar. The results indicated that all the cultivars of Cas 209 group (Xa-10), TKM 6 group (Xa-4), and Mond Ba group (Xa-4 + Xa-10) belonged to Isotype I, whereas the cultivars of Java 14 group (Xa-3) were in Isotype V. The cultivars of DZ 192 group (Xa-5) were classified either into IsotypeI or intermediates. These intermediates were considered as an intermediate of IsotypeI and Isotype II. The morphological observations revealed that IsotypeI of DZ 192 group was different from IsotypeI of Cas 209 group and of TKM 6 group. The algorithm survey of Cas 209 group and TKM 6 group found that the most frequent algorithms used in the two groups were different, and that Amp-14 was specifically predominant in Cas 209 group, whilst TKM 6 group was consisted of Amp-11 only. The distribution of Amp-14 had remarkable concordance with the distribution of Cas 209 group in Asia. The cultivars of TKM 6 group tended to involve wider range of phenotypes and the distribution in Asia is also wide. These results indicated that the origin of Cas 209 group and TKM 6 group might be different.

Communication, problem-solving, human interactions, and critical thinking abilities are highly regarded. Employee growth initiatives, work-life balance, and the development of transferable skills should be given top priority by employers and academic institutions. It is suggested that soft skills training be included and that industry-specific competency criteria be investigated. The study's findings inform employer initiatives for maximizing talent development and curriculum improvements.
A novel method of simulating the steady state performance of a generalized M-phase thyristor controlled bridge converter

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

A novel method for analyzing generalized M-phase mains or force-commutated AC-DC converter circuits is described. The method utilizes the switched-function modulation lemma. As a result, the computation process of AC voltage and current as well as DC voltage and current is systematized. The harmonic contents of these variables are obtained in the closed form. One of the main features of this method of harmonic spectral analysis is the saving in computational time achieved when the harmonic spectral analysis is all that is required. This is because the program separates the calculation of harmonic spectral response from the calculation of the time-domain response. Numerical examples are included to illustrate the technique.< >
Social representations of women in pregnancy, postpartum, and educational actions

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

"Aim: To understand the social representations of postpartum in terms of health education in pregnancy and childbirth. Method: This is a descriptive study guided by the Theory of Social Representations, developed in nine Family Health Centers in Fortaleza, Ceará. The study subjects were users enrolled in one of these centers, in the postpartum period, older than 18 years, with at least six prenatal visits and a postpartum consultation. We used the Test of Free Association of Words. Results: The primiparous women combine educational activities with family education. The multiparous women have in their evocations representations of health actions provided by the physician, courses and lectures. Discussion: The multiparous women undergo a process of reframing of their experience after the consultations. Thus, scientific knowledge is emphasized and popular knowledge devalued. Conclusion: We need to reframe educational actions that may be understood as a vehicle for knowledge construction, breaking the traditional design of transmission and reproduction."
Managing dysfunctional central venous access devices: a practical approach to urokinase thrombolysis

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Tunnelled central venous access devices (CVADs) are defined as any intravenous multipurpose catheters placed within the central veins for use in haemodialysis and administration of blood products or chemotherapy in oncology and haematological conditions. Frequent complications include thrombosis and catheter-related infection, which may lead to significant adverse patient outcomes. Once thrombosis is suspected correction should be attempted empirically with thrombolytic agents. Commonly available thrombolytic agents in the UK include urokinase (Syner-Kinase) and alteplase (Cathflo). It is well recognised that urokinase usage differs widely and concerns were raised by clinicians about the variation of dose regimens nationally. The objective of the CVAD Focus Group was to address this issue and offer guidance in the management of suspected thrombosis of CVAD with urokinase using two algorithms for renal and non-renal dysfunctional CVAD and to audit prospectively the outcomes of intervention.
Evidence-based surgical treatment of carotid stenosis. Literature review.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Carotid stenosis is an important cause of transient ischemic attacks and stroke. The cause of carotid stenosis is most often atherosclerosis, which accounts for 10% to 20% of brain infarction cases. Despite the introduction of tissue-plasminogen activator and other promising experimental therapies for select patients with acute ischemic stroke prevention remains the best approach to reduce its impact. Stroke-prone patients can be identified and targeted for specific interventions. At this juncture, treatment of carotid stenosis is a well-established therapeutic target and a pillar of stroke prevention. Two main strategies exist for the treatment of carotid stenosis. The 1st is stabilization or halting the progression of the carotid plaque formation with medications and modifications of risk factors (e.g., hypertension, diabetes, smoking, obesity, high cholesterol). The 2nd approach is the elimination or reduction of carotid stenosis by carotid endarterectomy or angioplasty and stenting. Carotid endarterectomy is the mainstay of therapy for symptomatic, severe carotid stenosis. Although its role for asymptomatic patients appears more limited, it is distinct for severe stenosis. Carotid angioplasty and stenting are techniques in maturation with the attractiveness of being less invasive that face the challenge of at least replicating the results of surgery. In this article, we will discuss the surgical management of symptomatic and asymptomatic carotid stenosis based on the evidence provided by the literature.
Has planning been de‐democratised in Sydney?

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract This paper investigates the complex and continuously evolving processes of de‐democratisation evident in urban planning practice in Sydney between 2011 and 2017. New South Wales' successive rounds of planning reform, establishment of a metropolitan commission, and amalgamation of local governments over that period have aimed to reduce local democratic participation in planning decisions, but they have had uneven success. I argue that while New South Wales' efforts to streamline development and de‐democratise planning have evolved considerably in response to multiple forms of opposition, the success of the neoliberal project is still uncertain. The insights this story offers add complexity to theorists' claims about the inevitability of depoliticisation and the end of meaningful democratic engagement. The story also offers insights about how power is created, lost, and regained in particular local circumstances.
Case of chromoblastomycosis with pulmonary involvement

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Chromoblastomycosis is a slowly growing chronic cutaneous mycosis associated with a variety of cutaneous lesions. Extra‐dermal involvement is rare. A 58‐year‐old man was admitted to the hospital with nausea, vomiting, weakness and a history of weight loss. On inspection, he had a large verrucous mass in the sacral region, and two large subcutaneous nodules in the anterior thoracic wall. He claimed the lesions were several years old. Biopsy and histological studies were positive for chromoblastomycosis. Routine chest radiography showed hilar enlargement, and a chest computed tomography was ordered. Pulmonary nodules were evident, and endoscopically acquired samples were also positive for chromoblastomycosis. Extra‐dermal and systemic involvement in chromoblastomycosis is exceedingly rare and often associated with immunosuppression. There is only one other case of pulmonary chromoblastomycosis reported in the published work.
Proust on the Beach

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

What becomes visible when we consider À la recherche du temps perdu from the vantage point of the beach? This article contends that Proust's beach resort, Balbec, stages a reconfiguration of social ritual and corporeal style. Balbec is both an enormous casino and the ‘springboard’ for a loosely scripted, habit-disrupting social choreography. In contrast to both the aristocratic salons of Paris and the bourgeois family nucleus that characterizes Combray, Proust's beach is an improvisatory space. As such, it facilitates place-based, contingent (rather than congenital) forms of queer movement and desire.
Possible Impact of Polymer Morphology on the Light Stability of Ink Jet Graphics

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

The chemistry of receiving polymers greatly affects the photo-permanence of dye based ink jet images. Earlier work has shown that in some cases the dye – polymer interactions lead to varying degrees of dye aggregation that can significantly improve dye photo permanece. Factors other than the solvating power of polymer for the dye also play a role in image photo stablity. Introducing comonomers into the polymer backbone can greatly affect the degree of observed dye aggregation and photo stability. The changes in degree of aggregation and photo stability do not necessarily correlate with each other, and a decrease in aggregation does not always lead to a similar decrease in permanence.This report describes an attempt to relate changes in polymer morphology, as detected by thermal analysis, with dye photopermanence. Specifically, co-polymers with ionic and non-ionic segments will be evaluated to determine if differences in dye aggregation or stability correlate with the possible presence of micellular domains or other morphology characteristics of the co-polymers.
Description of the Egg and First-Instar Larva ofScotobius pilulariusGermar, 1823 (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae: Scotobiini), and Analysis of Larval Primary Chaetotaxy

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Abstract. Larval morphology of the New World tenebrionid genus Scotobius Germar is studied based on a description of the first instar of S. pilularius Germar, with emphasis on chaetotaxic analysis of the cephalic capsule, head appendages, legs, and thoracic and abdominal segments. This represents the first description of a larva of Scotobius, and the first detailed treatment of the larval primary chaetotaxy pattern of a tenebrionid. A short description and photographs of the eggs are also provided, which are deposited individually and agglutinate small substrate particles. As remarkable characteristics of the studied larvae, the sclerome is a simple oval structure, the tergum IX is acuminate posteriorly, the segment X is extremely small and almost completely concealed by the sternum IX, and prothoracic legs are somewhat more robust than the meso- and metathoracic pairs, which is generally the case in soil-dwelling larvae. Some discussion is provided on a long-standing controversy regarding homology and terminology of the last leg segments in coleopteran larvae.
Accurate PD-L1 Protocols for Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer can be Developed for Automated Staining Platforms With Clone 22C3

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Treatment using immunotherapy against PD-L1 or PD-1 has become one of the hottest topics in Pathology and Oncology. Correct selection of patients eligible for treatment requires optimal immunohistochemical staining protocols. Treatment with pembrolizumab requires diagnostic examination of the patient's tumour using the companion diagnostic Ready-To-Use pharmDx kit from Dako Agilent based on the mAb 22C3 clone on the Autostainer platform. However, not all diagnostic pathology labs have access to this staining platform. This purpose of this study was to develop and validate protocols for PD-L1 detection for all major staining platforms using the concentrated format of 22C3 that would give similar staining result (equal Tumour Proportion Scores) to the pharmDx kit.
Breeding record analysis in pig herds and its veterinary applications--1: Development of a program to monitor reproductive efficiency and weaner production

Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

Analyses of breeding records and herd efficiency factors are important for veterinary surgeons supervising reproductive efficiency and piglet performance in breeding herds. These data include: the number of litters produced per sow per year; the distribution of weaning to service intervals; the number of sows returning to service by 30, 60, 90 and 120 days; the percentage of sows farrowing to first service; the percentage of sows found to be not pregnant; and the percentage of sows aborting. Boar performance data, piglet mortality percentages, piglet growth rates, feed efficiency factors and the percentage of sows culled from the herd are also analysed. A computer program was developed to produce these and other data from simple breeding records.
Perfectionism and Self-Handicapping Behaviors of Gifted Students: A Review of the Literature

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The study addresses two issues, perfectionism and self-handicapping, which may threaten gifted students’ academic achievement and self-esteem. While perfectionism refers to setting unreasonably high standards for one’s own performance, self-handicapping is defined as creating impediments or obstacles to use as an excuse for poor performance. Although both perfectionist and self-handicapping behaviors have some potential benefits for gifted students, they are mostly detrimental and can lead to anxiety, low self-esteem, and poor performance. This study aims to provide an overview of perfectionism and self-handicapping with a particular emphasis on how perfectionism may provoke self-handicapping behaviors among gifted students so that educators in gifted programs might become more aware of these behvaiors and their implications. The study also discusses some of the strategies that can be helpful to avoid these behaviors and their negative outcomes on gifted learners.
