[In vitro fertilization and embryo transfers in non human primates (author's transl)].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

In vitro fertilization and embryo transfers have been considered recently as a potential therapeutic approach for infertile women having irreparable tubal failure. This procedure includes aspiration of the preovulatory follicle for oocyte recovery, in vitro fertilization using capacitated sperm, embryo development in culture, and ultimately embryo transfer into the uterine lumen. Despite the increasing number of attempts in humans by recently formed medical teams in several countries, the overall results are very limited and the reasons for so many failures are not clearly identified. In the present paper are reviewed the results obtained in the development of an experimental model among non human primates. It is likely that only the detailed analysis of each step of the procedure, using this model, will clarify some of the problems encountered, and allow for improvements of further attempts in humans.
IMPACTS OF EDUCATIONAL FACTORS ON ECONOMIC GROWTH IN REGIONS OF CHINA: A SPATIAL ECONOMETRIC APPROACH

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

This paper investigates the impacts of educational factors on economic growth across 31 provinces during 1996 and 2010 in China. A spatial panel estimation model is applied to study the impacts of education on economic growth taking into account the spatial spillover effects in Feder model and the cumulative effect. The results reveal that (1) educational factors are significantly spatially autocorrelated. Educational factors have spatial spillover effects. Regional differences of education impacts still exist. (2) Average schooling year has a more positive effect on economic output than capital investment and labor force. Basic education might play a more important role in economic growth. (3) Education sector also benefits non-education sectors on economic growth if “spatial effects of economic shocks” are considered. Some policies that may enhance education development and their impacts on economic growth are proposed.

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

An approach for control model approximation using fuzzy-genetic learning techniques is considered in this report. The focus will be on the hardware setup for capturing and recording scenes of the control session. Subsequently, the software aspect of data processing required to filter the signals recorded to derive the necessary samples to be used in the approximation of the control model using the fuzzy-genetic learning technique. Based on the observations, the learning module is able to derive an n-rule fuzzy control system for the problem in consideration.
Characteristics of Patients With Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease in Belgium and Current Treatment Patterns for the Management of Elevated LDL‐C Levels

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

ABSTRACT Background Dyslipidemia remains the major cause of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Lipid management in patients with increased cardiovascular (CV) risk needs improvement across Europe, and data gaps are noticeable at the country level. Hypothesis We described the current treatment landscape in Belgium, hypothesizing that lipid management in patients with ASCVD remains inadequate and aiming to understand the reasons. Methods Using data from an anonymized primary care database in Belgium derived from 494 750 individuals, we identified those with any CV risk factor between November 2019 and October 2022 and described the clinical features of patients with ASCVD. The main outcomes were the proportion of patients (i) receiving lipid‐lowering therapies (LLTs), (ii) per low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) threshold, stratified per LLT, (iii) reaching the 2021 ESC recommended LDL‐C goals, and (iv) LDL‐C reduction per type of LLT was also determined. Results Among 40 888 patients with very high CV risk, 24 859 had established ASCVD. Most patients with ASCVD were either receiving monotherapy (59.6%) or had no documented LLT (25.1%). Further, 64.2% of those with no documented LLT exhibited LDL‐C levels ≥ 100 mg/dL. Among common treatment options, one of the greatest improvements in LDL‐C levels was achieved with combination therapy of statin and ezetimibe, reducing LDL‐C levels by 41.5% ( p < 0.0001). Yet, in this group, 24.8% of patients had still LDL‐C levels ≥ 100 mg/dL and only 20.7% were at goal. Conclusion Our study emphasizes the importance of developing strategies to help patients achieve their LDL‐C goals, with a focus on supporting the implementation of combination LLT in routine clinical practice.
Ensemble Dependence of the Transient Fluctuation Theorem

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

The Fluctuation Theorem gives an analytical expression for the probability of observing second law violating dynamical fluctuations, in nonequilibrium systems. At equilibrium statistical mechanical fluctuations are known to be ensemble dependent. In this paper we generalise the Transient and Steady State Fluctuation Theorems to various nonequilibrium dynamical ensembles. The Transient and Steady State Fluctuation Theorem for an isokinetic ensemble of isokinetic trajectories is tested using nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations of shear flow.
Social-Emotional Screening Status in Early Childhood Predicts Elementary School Outcomes

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

OBJECTIVE. The goal was to examine whether children who screen positive for social-emotional/behavioral problems at 12 to 36 months of age are at elevated risk for social-emotional/behavioral problems in early elementary school. METHODS. The sample studied (N = 1004) comprised an ethnically (33.3% minority) and socioeconomically (17.8% living in poverty and 11.3% living in borderline poverty) diverse, healthy, birth cohort from a metropolitan region of the northeastern United States. When children were 12 to 36 months of age (mean age: 23.8 months; SD: 7.1 months), parents completed the Brief Infant-Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment and questions concerning their level of worry about their child's behavior, emotions, and social development. When children were in early elementary school (mean age: 6.0 years; SD: 0.4 years), parents completed the Child Behavior Checklist and teachers completed the Teacher Report Form regarding behavioral problems. In a subsample (n = 389), parents reported child psychiatric status. RESULTS. Brief Infant-Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment screen status and parental worry were associated significantly with school-age symptoms and psychiatric disorders. In multivariate analyses that included Brief Infant-Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment status and parental worry, Brief Infant-Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment scores significantly predicted all school-age problems, whereas worry predicted only parent reports with the Child Behavior Checklist. Children with of-concern scores on the problem scale of the Brief Infant-Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment were at increased risk for parent-reported subclinical/clinical levels of problems and for psychiatric disorders. Low competence scores predicted later teacher-reported subclinical/clinical problems and parent-reported disorders. Worry predicted parent-reported subclinical/clinical problems. Moreover, the Brief Infant-Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment identified 49.0% of children who exhibited subclinical/clinical symptoms according to teachers and 67.9% of children who later met the criteria for a psychiatric disorder. CONCLUSIONS. Screening with a standardized tool in early childhood has the potential to identify the majority of children who exhibit significant emotional/behavioral problems in early elementary school.

Smart phone applications for self-monitoring of the menstrual cycle: a review and content analysis

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Background: In last years, a spread of smart phone applications (apps) for the self-monitoring of individual health has been recorded, especially among young people. A broad number of healthcare apps is designed for women, encouraging the self-responsibility in the surveillance of their menstrual cycle. Aim of the present study was to provide a review and features analysis of the apps for the self-monitoring of the menstrual cycle available on the major official mobile-phone application platforms. Materials and Methods: A systematic search in Google Play Store and iTunes was performed from January to December 2017. The most popular apps for the monitoring of the menstrual cycle were downloaded and their functions and features were evaluated and compared. Results: The authors found a considerable difference between applications in the number of tracking functions. While some apps are more sophisticated and combine almost all possible functions for tracking the menstrual cycle (Clue, Life, and Period Tracker Lite), some others are simpler, and their purpose is merely to record menstrual days, without any precise calculation of the fertile days (Cycles). With iPeriod, the tracking of menstrual cycle and the received drugs can be recorded. Conclusions: All the studied apps are excellent in providing awareness of the menstrual cycle. Some of them record valuable information for the self-monitoring of the menstrual cycle. Which app to be used mainly depends on the data wanted to be gathered from the monitoring. Although most of the devices and apps are excellent in providing direct information to the user, some improvements are still possible. A future challenge will be how data would be gathered through smart phone apps and how could be used in clinical practice.

Group Exercise And Over-speed Cycling Effects On Mental Health In Parkinson’s Disease.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

PURPOSE: : Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease that affects motor and non-motor function due to a loss of dopamine. Exercise has been shown to help physical and mental symptoms of PD. Over-speed cycling (OSC) involves cycling at a speed faster than the participant can actively produce. Group fitness classes (GF) for patients with Parkinson’s Disease focus on dynamic movements to enhance activities of daily living. Both OSC and GF have been shown to improve PD symptoms, however, previous studies have not examined the effects of these modalities on mental health. METHODS: Participants (n=8, mean age 73±3) diagnosed with level 2-3 PD were randomly assigned into two groups: 1) GF or 2) GF classes combined with OSC (GFC). GF was completed four times per week for one hour, for four weeks. In GFC, both the GF class and OSC was completed for one hour, two times per week for four weeks. The OSC protocol included a five minute-manual warm up each session, during the last 30 seconds participants cycled maximally. Speed of the cycle during forced exercise was determined by adding 10 RPM to the participant’s maximal manual speed. After the speed was determined, participants performed the forced cycling for 55 minutes, and completed the session with a five-minute cool down. A previously validated survey was administered pre and post exercise intervention to determine scores for physical function, mental health, fatigue, sleep, ability to participate in social roles and activities, and pain. RESULTS: All variables of the survey were recorded observing only one statistically significant change within physical function. There was a significant difference between GF and GFC when participants were asked, after the 4-week protocol, about their ability to go up and down stairs at a normal pace (5.0±0.0 vs. 4.2±0.5, p=0.024). All other variables included in the survey did not yield any significant changes during the 4-week exercise protocol. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this pilot study suggest that mental health measures show no significant improvements or decrements in group, and between groups, following the completion of the four-week exercise programming. A larger sample size may assist in determining the impact of group fitness and forced cycling on aspects of mental health associated with PD.
GS32, a Novel Golgi SNARE of 32 kDa, Interacts Preferentially with Syntaxin 6

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

Syntaxin 1, synaptobrevins or vesicle-associated membrane proteins, and the synaptosome-associated protein of 25 kDa (SNAP-25) are key molecules involved in the docking and fusion of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane. We report here the molecular, cell biological, and biochemical characterization of a 32-kDa protein homologous to both SNAP-25 (20% amino acid sequence identity) and the recently identified SNAP-23 (19% amino acid sequence identity). Northern blot analysis shows that the mRNA for this protein is widely expressed. Polyclonal antibodies against this protein detect a 32-kDa protein present in both cytosol and membrane fractions. The membrane-bound form of this protein is revealed to be primarily localized to the Golgi apparatus by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy, a finding that is further established by electron microscopy immunogold labeling showing that this protein is present in tubular-vesicular structures of the Golgi apparatus. Biochemical characterizations establish that this protein behaves like a SNAP receptor and is thus named Golgi SNARE of 32 kDa (GS32). GS32 in the Golgi extract is preferentially retained by the immobilized GST–syntaxin 6 fusion protein. The coimmunoprecipitation of syntaxin 6 but not syntaxin 5 or GS28 from the Golgi extract by antibodies against GS32 further sustains the preferential interaction of GS32 with Golgi syntaxin 6.
The effect of the time of seedling emergence of crisp lettuce on the time of maturity and head weight at maturity

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

SummaryThe effect of the time of seedling emergence on the time of maturity and the head weight at maturity of the American crisp lettuce cvs Salinas and Pennlake was examined using crops sown in April, May and July. Within a crop, later emerging seedlings of both cultivars produced plants which matured later. There was a trend towards later emerging seedlings producing lighter heads though the opposite was true for Salinas sown in May. These results suggest that, within a crop, variation in the time of maturity and in head weight at maturity can be reduced by improving the uniformity of seedling emergence.
Yeats's Byzantium Poems: A Study of Their Development

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Yeats's interest in Byzantine art and civilization began in the Nineties and continued through his life. The first issue of “Rosa Alchemica” (1896) refers to the mosaic work at Ravenna (“mosaic not less beautiful than the mosaic in the Baptistery at Ravenna, but of a less severe beauty”), work which Yeats probably saw when in 1907 he travelled in Italy with Lady Gregory. Unfortunately, Yeats has left us no account of his visit to Ravenna. A revision of “The Holy Places,” final section of Discoveries , made for the 1912 edition of The Culling of an Agate , shows that between 1906 and 1912 Yeats's knowledge of Byzantine history had increased. In 1906 he wrote of “an unstable equilibrium of the whole European mind that would not have come had Constantinople wall been built of better stone;” in 1912 this became “had John Palaeologus cherished, despite that high and heady look … a hearty disposition to fight the Turk.” In preparation for the “Dove or Swan” section of A Vision , which Yeats wrote at Capri in February 1925, and left virtually unchanged in the revised Vision of 1937, Yeats read several books about Byzantine art and civilization and studied Byzantine mosaics in Rome and Sicily. He did not return to Ravenna, being fearful of its miasmal air. Once Byzantium had found a place in “the System,” it shortly appeared in the poetry, first in “Sailing to Byzantium,” and “Wisdom” (1926-27); then changed, though not utterly, in “Byzantium” (1930).
Influence of marketing communication tools on customer’s purchase processes of erotic products in the Czech Republic

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Research background: Even today, part of society considers shops with erotic goods as something completely controversial, which should not be talked about, or used in any case. Erotic tools have been used by people for thousands of years (30,000 years ago, people in caves painted the first erotic aids). In the case of material finds, various tools from the period of 2,500 BC were discovered. Due to the understanding of erotic tools and the presentation of conservative to negative opinions of people, it is important to create effective communication and effectively influence the information of potential customers. Purpose of the article: The main goal of the work is a description of customer behavior, analysis of the point of sale, and marketing communication in the market of erotic tools. The primary research was realized in questionnaire form in focus on the definition of a typical customer and his characteristics within their purchase habits with the support of interviews. Methods: The description of customer behavior is based on the analysis of their behavior based on a quantitative questionnaire survey. We asked 870 people and received 463 fulfilled sheets. The results of the questionnaires will be extended by a qualitative survey in the form of personal interviews with 10 respondents. Findings & Value added: We find out four different customer types which have different purchase behavior, and on which is necessary to use a different type of communication. According to our types, sellers of erotic tools could improve their communication channels to become more effective.
Targeting of Two Arabidopsis H+-ATPase Isoforms to the Plasma Membrane

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

Abstract More than 11 different P-type H+-ATPases have been identified in Arabidopsis by DNA cloning. The subcellular localization for individual members of this proton pump family has not been previously determined. We show by membrane fractionation and immunocytology that a subfamily of immunologically related P-type H+-ATPases, including isoforms AHA2 and AHA3, are primarily localized to the plasma membrane. To verify that AHA2 and AHA3 are both targeted to the plasma membrane, we added epitope tags to their C-terminal ends and expressed them in transgenic plants. Both tagged isoforms localized to the plasma membrane, as indicated by aqueous two-phase partitioning and sucrose density gradients. In contrast, a truncated AHA2 (residues 1–193) did not, indicating that the first two transmembrane domains alone are not sufficient for plasma membrane localization. Two epitope tags were evaluated: c-myc, a short, 11-amino acid sequence, and β-glucuronidase (GUS), a 68-kD protein. The c-myc tag is recommended for its sensitivity and specific immunodetection. GUS worked well as an epitope tag when transgenes were expressed at relatively high levels (e.g. with AHA2-GUS944); however, evidence suggests that GUS activity may be inhibited when a GUS domain is tethered to an H+-ATPase complex. Nevertheless, the apparent ability to localize a GUS protein to the plasma membrane indicates that a P-type H+-ATPase can be used as a delivery vehicle to target large, soluble proteins to the plasma membrane.
A Delicate Ear, a Retentive Memory, and the Power to Weld the Fragments

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Abstract When European composer Antonin Dvorak came to America as director of the National Conservatory of Music in 1892, he brought with him a profound interest in the potential ties for music on American soil. In fact, just six weeks before he and his family left Bohemia for America, he began his cantata The American Flag, opus 102. This interest, of course, reflected Dvořák’s artistic aesthetic. His emphasis on how Romantic, particularly nationalistic, issues influenced the artistry of the classical composer, and by extension the literary artist as well, is borne out in his late nineteenth-century pronouncements concerning the nature and future of the American school of music as it would emerge in the twentieth century.
