Individual Counseling Using Thought Stopping Techniques to Reduce Verbal Abuse Behavior in Students

Background (General): Verbal abuse is a form of non-physical violence characterized by harsh, degrading, or mocking words that harm others emotionally, and it frequently occurs within school settings. Background (Specific): Addressing verbal abuse in students is crucial as it disrupts learning environments and affects peer relationships. Knowledge Gap: While Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques have been applied in various behavioral issues, limited empirical evidence exists regarding their application in reducing students’ verbal abuse. Aim: This study investigates the use of individual counseling with the Thought Stopping technique to reduce verbal abuse among students. Results: Employing a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design with purposive sampling, data were collected using a validated Likert-scale verbal aggression questionnaire and analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed ranks test in SPSS. Findings revealed a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (p = 0.042, p &lt; 0.05), indicating a measurable reduction in verbal abuse behavior after counseling. Novelty: This study demonstrates the application of a structured CBT-based intervention specifically tailored to address verbal aggression in school settings. Implications: The results highlight the potential of Thought Stopping in individual counseling as a practical strategy for educators and counselors to foster healthier communication patterns among students. Highlights: Individual counseling with Thought Stopping reduced students’ verbal abuse behavior. Wilcoxon test analysis showed a significant pretest–posttest difference (p=0.042). The study provides practical contributions for school counselors in behavior intervention. Keywords: Individual Counseling, Thought Stopping, Verbal Abuse, CBT, Students

Transcriptome analysis of <i>Streptococcus gordonii</i> Challis <scp>DL</scp>1 indicates a role for the biofilm‐associated <i>fru<scp>RBA</scp></i> operon in response to <i>Candida albicans</i>

Summary Multiple levels of interkingdom signaling have been implicated in maintaining the ecological balance between Candida albicans and commensal streptococci to assure a state of oral health. To better understand the molecular mechanisms involved in the initial streptococcal response to the presence of C. albicans that can initiate oral surface colonization and biofilm formation, hypha‐forming cells were incubated with Streptococcus gordonii cells for 30 min to assess the streptococcal transcriptome response. A genome‐wide microarray analysis and quantitative polymerase chain reaction validation of S. gordonii transcripts identified a number of genes, the majority of which were involved in metabolic functions that were differentially expressed in the presence of hyphae. The fruR , fruB , and fruA genes encoding the transcriptional regulator, fructose‐1‐phosphate kinase, and fructose‐specific permease, respectively, of the phosphoenolpyruvate‐dependent fructose phosphotransferase system, were consistently upregulated. An S. gordonii mutant in which these genes were deleted by allelic replacement formed an architecturally distinct, less robust biofilm with C. albicans than did parental strain cells. Complementing the mutant with plasmid borne fruR , fruB , and fruA genes caused phenotype reversion, indicating that the genes in this operon played a role in dual‐species biofilm formation. This genome‐wide analysis of the S. gordonii transcriptional response to C. albicans has identified several genes that have potential roles in interkingdom signaling and responses.

Pre-operative localization of parathyroid tumours using static B scan ultrasonography

Abstract Time consuming, inaccurate and often invasive localization procedures before initial surgery in primary hyperparathyroidism are probably not justified. The clinical value of pulsed ultrasound has been appreciated since 1975 and the application of dedicated, high resolution, real time systems is now advocated. This paper examines the efficacy of conventional static B scan equipment in pre-operative localization of parathyroid tumours in 34 patients. When considering all glands, a true positive value (sensitivity) of 55·5 per cent was achieved, with a true negative rate (specificity) of 96·0 per cent. The accuracy for all glands (the true positive plus true negative results as a percentage of all glands scanned) was 85·3 per cent. An accuracy of 93 per cent was achieved when considering glands greater than 5 mm diameter, with false positive and negative rates of 3·6 and 20·0 per cent respectively. The limitations of the technique are discussed in the context of the current literature.

Implementation of Radon Transformation for Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT)

Radon Transformation is generally used to construct optical image (like CT image) from the projection data in biomedical imaging. In this paper, the concept of Radon Transformation is implemented to reconstruct Electrical Impedance Topographic Image (conductivity or resistivity distribution) of a circular subject. A parallel resistance model of a subject is proposed for Electrical Impedance Topography(EIT) or Magnetic Induction Tomography(MIT). A circular subject with embedded circular objects is segmented into equal width slices from different angles. For each angle, Conductance and Conductivity of each slice is calculated and stored in an array. A back projection method is used to generate a two-dimensional image from one-dimensional projections. As a back projection method, Inverse Radon Transformation is applied on the calculated conductance and conductivity to reconstruct two dimensional images. These images are compared to the target image. In the time of image reconstruction, different filters are used and these images are compared with each other and target image.

Minimum Cooking Time for Potato Strip Frying

ABSTRACT The maximum force for shearing was used as texture parameter for raw and cooked potato strips. The force was satisfactorily correlated with the cook value C (equivalent cooking time at 100°C) showing complete cooking for C ≥ 300 sec. Thermal histories measured at the center of strips fried under different oil temperatures suggested the heat and mass transfer mechanisms involved in the frying process and allowed the calculation of the minimum frying time to assure cooking at the strip center. This time was independent of the oil temperature and slightly dependent on the strip size.

The pricing of firms with expected losses/profits: The role of January

Abstract We examine the role of January in the relation between expected losses/profits and future stock returns. We predict and find that the relation between expected losses/profits and future returns reverses from the usual positive relation in non‐January months to a negative one in January. The reverse January relation is consistent across sample years, is observed in the United States and international markets, and is incremental to other variables associated with January returns. At least part of the reverse January relation is explained by tax‐loss selling. Further analysis shows that the reverse January relation results in a temporary price drift away from fundamental value . In other words, we find that abnormal positive (negative) future returns do not always indicate past under(over)valuation. Overall, our results illustrate the importance of controlling for the effect of January when examining how investors price expected losses/profits.

Investigation of Intragam<sup>®</sup> P Haemolysis Adverse Events

Aim To understand the underlying cause of a cluster of haemolysis‐type adverse event (AE) reports received by CSL/ARCBS in patients receiving Intragam ® P. Method The cluster of AE reports were analysed with respect to patient factors (clinical indication, dose, blood group, concomitant medications and blood products, bone marrow reserve), product factors (batch results, production records) and changes in clinical practice (administration protocols, infusion kits). All Intragam P haemolysis related AEs from clinical trials and post‐marketing exposure were reviewed, as well as international literature on this subject. Result Sixteen haemolysis type cases were reported to ARCBS/CSL over a 3 month period, ranging from abnormal laboratory test results (positive Coombs test) to clinical symptoms requiring transfusion. Ten of these reports were received in 4 days from 2 Victorian hospitals following the detection of 2 cases, which precipitated a retrospective review that identified additional similar cases. All patients received high dose (doses exceeding 400–600 mg/kg given every 3–4 weeks either in frequency or quantity) and all but one (where evidence suggested an underlying disorder) were of blood group A or AB. Eight patients were recipients of bone marrow transplants. No product or batch related factors or processes likely to have contributed to the haemolysis type AEs were identified. Anti‐A and Anti‐B titres of all Intragam P batches were investigated and confirmed to be within regulatory approved release specifications and pharmacopoeial limits. Conclusion Haemolysis type adverse events are a recognised consequence of IVIG administration and are widely discussed in the literature. This investigation has confirmed the association of high dose IVIG in recipients of blood group A or AB and increased risk of haemolysis type adverse events. It also highlighted the possibility of accentuating any consequent anaemia in patients with diminished bone marrow reserve (eg post bone marrow transplant patients). Pre‐infusion ABO blood groups should be determined in patients receiving high dose IVIG and their haemoglobin levels monitored in the days following therapy.

HYPERSENSITIVITY TO IMMUNE SERUM GLOBULIN

<h3>To the Editor:—</h3> The clinical note inThe Journal, Sept. 26, 1959, page 415, is a case report entitled "Hypersensitivity to Immune Serum Globulin." The publication of this seems unfortunate to me, since both diagnosis and treatment are open to question. The inaccuracies which it contains could lead to disaster in circumstances of a similar nature. The concept of spontaneous hypersensitivity to human immune serum globulin is hardly borne out by any of the evidence or comments printed. The fact that both parents had a strong allergic history scarcely gives any additional credibility to this diagnosis, in a 15-week-old child who has yet to manifest one symptom of an allergic nature despite the fact that it has met and apparently overcome successfully innumerable antigens. Even the comments of the consultant which are included contain rather misleading statements; e. g., speaking of the possibility of allergy, "The mechanism is of some

Knowledge Diffusion, Trade, and Innovation across Countries and Sectors

This paper provides a unified framework for quantifying the cross-country and cross-sector interactions among trade, innovation, and knowledge diffusion. This framework is used to study the effect of trade liberalization in an endogenous growth model in which comparative advantage and the stock of knowledge are determined by innovation and diffusion. The model is calibrated to match observed cross-country and cross-sector heterogeneity in production, innovation efficiency, and knowledge spillovers. The counterfactual analysis shows that a reduction in trade costs induces a reallocation of R&amp;D and comparative advantage across sectors. Heterogeneous knowledge diffusion amplifies the specialization effects of trade-induced R&amp;D reallocation, becoming an important source of welfare. (JEL F12, F14, O33, O34, O41)

The Effectiveness of Legal Policies on Micro and Small Business Empowerment in Pandemic Time

Introduction: MSMEs made a significant contribution to the Indonesian economy at the beginning of 2018. However, since COVID-19 has become a global pandemic, micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) have been heavily impacted, due to a series of social restriction policies enacted by the government. In order to resolve issues, the government must assist and empower the MSME sector so that it can survive the pandemic. However, not many studies have been carried out regarding the extent to which empowerment policies by local governments have been effective in the field. Purposes of the Research: This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the legal policies in empowering the micro and small enterprises (MSEs) during the pandemic based on the case of Gowa Regency, South Sulawesi.Methods of the Research: This is an empirical normative legal research that uses primary and secondary data with descriptive and qualitative analysis.Results of the Research: The results show that the empowerment policy in South Sulawesi has been regulated in Provincial Regulation Number 7 of 2019 concerning Cooperatives and Small Enterprises, where there are ten forms of facilitating MSE empowerment. Even though it has established the Cooperatives and MSMEs Office, the Gowa Regency Government does not yet issue spesific regulations on the empowerment of MSEs. Based on field data analysis, it was found that several forms of empowerment facilitation had been received by the respondents but were not evenly distributed. Empowerment received mostly focused on capital facilitation, while ignoring other form of facilitations. Thus, the existing policies have not been implemented effectively. This is influenced by several factors such as legal substance that do not provide legal certainty; legal structure factors, including the lack of apparatus and supporting facilities; and cultural factors, such as pragmatic behavior and low awareness of MSE actors.

Dilemmas, limitations and challenges of place leadership: instability and transitional dynamics in post-Brexit Northern Ireland

This paper considers place leadership in sub-national settings characterised by complex post-conflict legacies that are engendering volatility and stasis. Using Northern Ireland as an illustrative case, we identify leadership dilemmas through the experience of a region where those in leadership roles are struggling to navigate problematic community and policy legacies. While the idea of place leadership offers much conceptual promise as a means of overcoming instability, there are many critical tensions ‘on the ground’ in Northern Ireland that render place leadership approaches risky to enact and vulnerable to a combination of<br/>opposing forces and ongoing post-Brexit policy turbulence.

Pulse oximeter validation study

Introduction: The aim of this study was to assess a) the reliability of our pulse oximeters for SpO2 and HR signals, b) to detect malfunctions, c) and to provide recommendations on SpO2 testing. Methods: A pulse oximeter tester (Metron DEAG) was to test 12 Konica Minolta pulse oximeters over a split 6 month period. The suitability of the analyser was measured against a reference standard (OxSim-1 pulse oximeter simulator). The ranges that were simulated include SpO2 of 85%, 95% and 98% at heart rates (HR) of 80, 40 and 140 beats per minute (b.p.m) respectively. Results: The Bland-Altman analysis did not reveal any significant difference at all 3 ranges for both analysers. The mean differences at SpO2 of 85% and HR of 40 b.p.m was -0.37% and ±2SD of (0.67- -1.39). At 95% 80 b.p.m mean difference of +0.67±2SD (+1.18 - +0.15) and 98% at 140 b.p.m a mean difference of 0.08% ±2SD (+0.44- -0.29). The difference between the two analysers was correlated better towards the higher range of SpO2. There was no variability in the simulated HR during the testing of all the pulse oximeters. Discussion: The results of the study show that the oximeters appear to be remarkably stable over time. Conclusions: The change in SpO2 over Period 1 (mean simulated readings of 86.1%, 95.8% and 98.0%) and Period 2 (mean simulated readings of 86.2% and 95.7% and 98.0%) was negligible. The P values for all three ranges (85% P value of 0.65, 95% P=0.59 and 98% P=0.47) were > 0.05 and therefore no significant differences in the data existed. We conclude that regular testing of pulse oximeters does not help predict failure or problems that aren9t picked up by the regular operators.

Activation affects access to the platelet receptor for adhesive glycoproteins.

Blood platelets have a receptor for macromolecular adhesive glycoproteins, located on a heteroduplex membrane glycoprotein complex (GPIIb/IIIa) that only becomes "exposed" when platelets are activated. Binding of the adhesive glycoproteins, in particular fibrinogen, to the receptor is required for platelet aggregation, which in turn is required to arrest bleeding. A murine monoclonal antibody whose rate of binding to the receptor is affected by platelet activation was both cross-linked and fragmented to assess the effects of changes in molecular size on its rate of binding to unactivated and activated platelets. The results indicate that small molecules can bind more rapidly to the receptors on unactivated platelets than can large molecules and that activation involves a conformational and/or microenvironmental change that permits the large molecules to bind more rapidly.
