The effect of dextrose ingestion on cardiovascular endurance

This study was designed to investigate the effectiveness of dextrose on cardiovascular endurance. The subjects were nineteen male students enrolled at Loma Linda University in Riverside, California. The subjects were exercised to their maximum while being tested on the treadmill.· Subjects were each tested twice. Thirty minutes before exercising, they ingested one hundred grams of dextrose for one test and ten ounces of sugar-free Kool-aid for the second test. The difference in exhaustion times was then recorded.\nThe data indicated that dextrose ingestion decreased exhaustion time on the treadmill. Subjects were able to exercise for a longer period of time after the intake of a sugar-free substance.\nIt is concluded that the ingestion of dextrose, as used in this study, decreases cardiovascular endurance.

Biomechanical Effects of a Personal Weight Transfer Device in the Stooped Posture

Repetitive work in the stooped posture is a known risk factor for developing low back disorders (LBDs). Use of the stooped posture in the workplace is widespread throughout the world in agriculture, construction, and mining. In California alone, hundreds of thousands of agricultural field workers routinely utilize the stooped posture. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if a personal weight transfer device as a possible intervention to reduce the load on the lumbar spine, thereby reducing the risk of developing LBDs. Eighteen healthy subjects performed stoop posture tasks in a laboratory study designed to simulate harvesting of low-growing crops. Results showed that when wearing the device in the static stooped posture, biceps femoris activity was reduced by 17%, lumbar flexion was reduced by 12%, ankle plantar-flexion increased by 5%, and the lumbar erector spinae of those subjects who did not experience flexion-relaxation of the erector spinae was reduced by 26%. Hip and knee flexion were not significantly altered. The device was effective in reducing the back muscle activity in those subjects who did not experience flexionrelaxation. Low back pain sufferers have reduced, or no, relaxation of back muscles during stoop. Therefore, the device may be beneficial for those with existing LBDs, and who use the stooped posture routinely. By limiting lumbar flexion, and consequently reducing loads on the lumbar intervertebral discs, the device may reduce the risk of developing LBDs in the population of people who use the stooped posture.

OS1105-342 Strength Evaluation of Curved CFRP Laminated Composite

Strength evaluations of L-shaped CFRP laminates were conducted by 4-point bending method based on ASTM D 6415/D 6415M-06a. Unidirectional CFRP laminates and quasi-isotropic CFRP laminates were used as the specimens. In the former specimens, just interlaminar delamination has been observed, however in the latter specimens, transverse cracking as well as delamination has occurred. Interlaminar tensile strength of unidirectional CFRP laminates was also obtained. However, the dispersion of the strength was not small. Further, the authors tried to investigate the effect of the bending deformation of the specimens on the accuracy of the interlaminar tensile strength.

Cursus in Dante Alighieri’s prose books De vulgari eloquentia, De Monarchia and Convivio

This paper examines the prose rhythm in Dante’s Latin and Italian prose. The samples of Dante’s Latin books De vulgari eloquentia and De Monarchia and the Italian book Convivio are analysed with the purpose of finding the incidence and patterns of prose rhythm. The method used in this paper is comparative-statistical analysis. The rhythm of classic prose was based on the quantity of syllables, while the medieval Latin prose rhythm was based on word stress and called cursus. Although the use of cursus was more popular in Latin prose, it can also be found elsewhere, including Italian prose. The analysis reveals that rhythmical sentences endings have a role in Dante’s prose and that the cursus appear in his Latin works, as well as in his works in vernacular.

Common Skin Conditions in Children and Adolescents: Bacterial Infections.

Bacterial skin infections represent a significant health care burden. Cellulitis and erysipelas are rapidly spreading, painful, superficial skin infections, usually caused by streptococci or <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>. Folliculitis is an infection of hair follicles mostly caused by <i>S aureus</i>. Simple folliculitis typically is self-limited. Topical benzoyl peroxide is a first-line nonantibiotic treatment. Mupirocin and clindamycin are topical antibiotic options. For treatment-resistant cases, oral cephalexin or dicloxacillin is an appropriate option. Impetigo is a common, self-limited infection in children. Bullous impetigo is caused by <i>S aureus</i>, and nonbullous impetigo is caused by beta-hemolytic streptococci, <i>S aureus</i>, or both. In most cases, topical mupirocin or retapamulin (Altabax) is effective. Oral antibiotics should be considered for household outbreaks or patients with multiple lesions. Abscesses are red, painful collections of purulence in the dermis and deeper tissues caused by <i>S aureus</i> or polymicrobial infections. Furuncles are abscesses of a hair follicle, whereas carbuncles involve several hair follicles. In recurrent cases of these lesions, culture of the exudate is recommended. Abscess, furuncle, and carbuncle management consists of incision and drainage. Oral antibiotics are not necessary in most cases but should be prescribed for patients with severe immunocompromise or systemic signs of infection. In bacterial skin infections, methicillin-resistant <i>S aureus</i> coverage should be considered for patients with infections that have not improved with treatment.

Stresses in a Circular Cylindrical Shell Having Two Circular Cutouts

Stress analysis for a circular cylindrical shell having two circular cutouts of equal size is worked out. The following four cases are treated. A circular cylindrical shell having two circular cutouts of equal size (a) in a longitudinal direction under uniform tension, (b) in a circumferential direction under uniform tension, (c) in a longitudinal direction under internal pressure and (d) in a circumferential direction under internal pressure. The method of Green's general biharmonic analysis is extended to this problem and the boundary conditions along the edge of cutouts are satisfied by the point-matching method. Numerical solutions are obtained for three kinds of diameter of circular cutout and four kinds of center-distance of the cutouts. Especially, in the cases of (a) and (b), the results are compared with those of the flat plate.

Lightweight Multi-Domain Fusion Model for Through-Wall Human Activity Recognition Using IR-UWB Radar

Impulse radio ultra-wideband (IR-UWB) radar, operating in the low-frequency band, can penetrate walls and utilize its high range resolution to recognize different human activities. Complex deep neural networks have demonstrated significant performance advantages in classifying radar spectrograms of various actions, but at the cost of a substantial computational overhead. In response, this paper proposes a lightweight model named TG2-CAFNet. First, clutter suppression and time–frequency analysis are used to obtain range–time and micro-Doppler feature maps of human activities. Then, leveraging GhostV2 convolution, a lightweight feature extraction module, TG2, suitable for radar spectrograms is constructed. Using a parallel structure, the features of the two spectrograms are extracted separately. Finally, to further explore the correlation between the two spectrograms and enhance the feature representation capabilities, an improved nonlinear fusion method called coordinate attention fusion (CAF) is proposed based on attention feature fusion (AFF). This method extends the adaptive weighting fusion of AFF to a spatial distribution, effectively capturing the subtle spatial relationships between the two radar spectrograms. Experiments showed that the proposed method achieved a high degree of model lightweightness, while also achieving a recognition accuracy of 99.1%.

Adenocarcinoma of the cervix.

With the impact of screening programmes in reducing the incidence of squamous carcinoma of the cervix it is timely that attention is concentrated on glandular lesions. There is convincing evidence that adenocarcinoma of the cervix is increasing in incidence, and this may be related to either oral contraceptive use, human papillovirus infections, or both. Compared to its squamous cancer counterpart the response to therapy, particularly irradiation, is less than optimal, and it is clear that multicentre randomised trials are urgently required to delineate the optimal management of women with this disease.

The numb cheek syndrome

Three patients with skin cancer had numbness isolated to one cheek, in the distribution of the infraorbital nerve. Hypesthesia also involved the medial and lateral upper incisors and canine teeth, and adjacent gingiva, sparing the more posterior teeth and gums. The molar and premolar teeth and gums are innervated by the posterior and middle superior alveolar nerves; because these structures were spared, the pathologic process was localized to the infraorbital foramen, and we could exclude involvement of the maxillary division more proximally. In two patients, cheek numbness heralded recurrent squamous cell carcinoma. Analogous anatomy at the mental foramen should help distinguish intracranial leptomeningeal from local mandibular lesions producing isolated numbness of the chin.

Vehicle navigation in urban environments

Overcoming GPS signal disturbances is essential for achieving adequate vehicle navigation in urban environments. In a previous paper, we have proposed a top-down approach for modeling context-aware vehicle navigation systems. We have also proposed an innovation concerning the technical aspects of navigation. Furthering this work, we discuss in the current paper more thoroughly the issue of GPS shadows identification and our proposed ways of overcoming them. It is important to mention that overcoming GPS shadows is considered complementary with regard to a typical GPS navigation. We therefore assume a context-aware service provisioning where an "A Scenario" GPS navigation gives way to an alternative "B Scenario" navigation in the event of encountering GPS shadows. We especially focus on the latter, by super-imposing GPS shadows calculation and corresponding real-time measurements, for the sake of precision. Counting on those two "channels" is expected to provide an adequate "B Scenario" alternative to the typical GPS navigation when obstacled by GPS shadows.

Oration “Sentio” of Enea Silvio Piccolomini (December 1452, Vienna). Edited and translated by Michael von Cotta-Schönberg. Preliminary edition, 5th version. (Orations of Enea Silvio Piccolomini / Pope Pius II; 20)

In 1452, the Austrians rebelled against the government of Emperor Friedrich III which the emperor exercised on behalf of his ward and nephew, the 12 year old Ladislaus Posthumous, Archduke of Austria and King of Hungary and Bohemia. The rebellion was victorious: Ladislaus left the guardianship of the emperor and moved to Vienna where a government was set up in his name. A number of issues were to be settled at a peace conference in Vienna in December, where the emperor was mainly represented by the seasoned imperial diplomat, Enea Silvio Piccolomini, Bishop of Siena. Piccolomini was also legate of the pope, Nicolaus V, who had intervened in favour of the newly crowned emperor. Piccolomini had prepared an oration, Sentio, to be held at the conference, vigourously defending both emperor and pope, but the oration was probably not delivered.

Making Sense of Accessibility in IT Design &amp;#8212; Usable Accessibility vs. Accessible Usability

The Internet with its nearly unlimited offer for information, services and functionalities for communication has become an essential part of business and private life within the last years. Recent information and communication technologies (ICT) together with the Internet offer also new impressing possibilities for people with disabilities. However people with disabilities often hit barriers when using ICT and the Internet. Usually, this is not because of the restricted users information perception (visually, auditory, haptic) - people with special needs use assistive technologies that compensate particular disabilities. Mostly, they cannot make use of ICT and the Internet because designers and developers do not follow rules and guidelines for accessibility and usability. Comprehensibility, clarity, readability, high-quality, up-to-dateness and intuitive operation and use, are important criterions that are essential for customer satisfaction, loyalty, quality and success. Therefore accessibility and usability has important advantages for all users, not only for people with disabilities.

Impaired phase synchronization of motor‐evoked potentials reflects the degree of motor dysfunction in the lesioned human brain

Abstract The functional corticospinal integrity (CSI) can be indexed by motor‐evoked potentials (MEP) following transcranial magnetic stimulation of the motor cortex. Glial brain tumors in motor‐eloquent areas are frequently disturbing CSI resulting in different degrees of motor dysfunction. However, this is unreliably mirrored by MEP characteristics. In 59 consecutive patients with diffuse glial tumors and 21 healthy controls (CTRL), we investigated the conventional MEP features, that is, resting motor threshold (RMT), amplitudes and latencies. In addition, frequency‐domain MEP features were analyzed to estimate the event‐related spectral perturbation (ERSP), and the induced phase synchronization by intertrial coherence (ITC). The clinical motor status was captured including the Medical Research Council Scale (MRCS), the Grooved Pegboard Test (GPT), and the intake of antiepileptic drugs (AED). Motor function was classified according to MRCS and GPT as no motor deficit (NMD), fine motor deficits (FMD) and gross motor deficits (GMD). CSI was assessed by diffusion‐tensor imaging (DTI). Motor competent subjects (CTRL and NMD) had similar ERSP and ITC values. The presence of a motor deficit (FMD and GMD) was associated with an impairment of high‐frequency ITC (150–300 Hz). GMD and damage to the CSI demonstrated an additional reduction of high‐frequency ERSP (150–300 Hz). GABAergic AED increased ERSP but not ITC. Notably, groups were indistinguishable based on conventional MEP features. Estimating MEP phase synchronization provides information about the corticospinal transmission after transcranial magnetic stimulation and reflects the degree of motor impairment that is not captured by conventional measures.

‘Dreaming Has a Share in History’: Biding Time in the Work of Lubaina Himid

This essay analyses a selection of work by British painter Lubaina Himid through the lens of time, specifically non‐synchronous time as adumbrated by Ernst Bloch, conjunctural time after Stuart Hall, and constellations of Benjaminian time. It engages in close visual readings of Naming the Money (2004), Tousssaint L'Ouverture (1987), and a series of nine paintings Himid has referred to as the Walter Benjamin Kangas (2016), also known as New Kangas from the Archive . Taking different kinds of time as its structural framework, the essay presents new ways of thinking about these artworks that cross past and present narratives of trauma, political agency, subjectivity and change. The essay demonstrates how the use of colour, installation and collage, in a re‐address to history, to art history, to monuments, to time, to memory and to visibility, are central to Himid's practices as an artist: a practice in which she wrests painting from its traditional function as an instrument for white western canon formation, and re‐deploys it in dialogical relation to its origins.

Transient vertical monocular hemianopsia with anomalous retinal artery branching.

A 62-year-old man reported 6 stereotyped attacks of transient loss of vision in the lateral visual field of the right eye and was subsequently found to have right internal carotid artery occlusion. Fundoscopy revealed an anomalous central retinal artery branching whereby a single stem vessel supplied the superior and inferior nasal quadrants of the retina. Circulatory insufficiency in this anomalous stem could explain the occurrence of vertical monocular hemianopsia as an unusual manifestation of ipsilateral carotid artery atherosclerosis.

How Learning Styles Predict Charitableness via Emotional Management

The existing research on charitableness focuses on the consequences of the charitable behavior, rather than its determinants. In this paper, we focus on Jackson’s Learning Profiles, and suggest that when assessed through learning profiles, emotional management accounts for the values of benevolence and universalism, which are values commonly associated with charitableness. A cohort of university students participated in a study that examined related hypotheses suggesting that learning profiles in personality can predict the charitable values of benevolence and universalism both directly and indirectly via emotional management. In the present study, general support of the hypotheses was established based on Jackson’s learning styles profiler. Hence, emotionally intelligent achievers directly predicted the charitable values of benevolence and universalism, and managing one’s own and understanding others’ emotions mediated the association between Learning Profiles and charitable values.
