Synthesis, characterization and antibacterial study of cyclometalated rhodium(III) complex containing dithiocarbamate

The novel cyclometalated Rh(III) complex, [Rh(phpy)2(S^S) Where phpy is 2 phenylpyridine and (S^S) is diethyldithiocarbamate, has been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, 13C and 1H NMR, electronic absorption and Fluorescence spectroscopies, cyclic voltammetry, and X ray crystallography. The crystal structure of [Rh(phpy)2(S^S) shows that the coordination geometry around the Rh(III) is a distorted octahedron, with bite angles of 71.19 81.04deg for all three bidentate ligands. Electrochemical analysis by cyclic voltammetry reveals irreversible redox behavior of the rhodium centre. Antibacterial activity of the complex has also been studied by agar disc diffusion method against three Gram negative bacteria (Pseudomonas aeroginosa, Salmonella typhi and Escherichia coli) and two Gram positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus and Corynebacterium renale)
Computational Linguistics and Intelligent Text Processing
Venue: Lecture Notes in Computer Science

The 2016 CICLing conference was dedicated to the memory of Adam Kilgarriff who died the year before. Adam leaves behind a tremendous scientific legacy and those working in computational linguistics, other fields of linguistics and lexicography are indebted to him. This paper is a summary review of some of Adam's main scientific contributions. It is not and cannot be exhaustive. It is written by only a small selection of his large network of collaborators. Nevertheless we hope this will provide a useful summary for readers wanting to know more about the origins of work, events and software that are so widely relied upon by scientists today, and undoubtedly will continue to be so in the foreseeable future.
Prevalence and associated factors of TB/HIV co infection among HIV Infected patients in Amhara region, Ethiopia.
Venue: African health sciences

Tuberculosis is one of the world's most common causes of death in the era of Human immunodeficiency virus. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and associated factors of TB/HIV co infection.  Hospital based retrospective studies were conducted among adult HIV positive patients. Logistic regression method and Chi square test were applied.  A total of 571 HIV positive study participants were enrolled. Of these, 158 (27.7% were found to have pulmonary tuberculosis. Lower baseline CD4 count<200cell/ul, patients who drunk alcohol, patients who were ambulatory at the initiation of ART, patients whose marital status was single were significant predictors for increased risk of tuberculosis in PLWHIV (P <0.05) Non smoker patients, patients in WHO clinical stage I, patients in WHO clinical stage II and ownership of the house had significant protective benefit against risk of TB (P <0.05)  The prevalence of TB/HIV co infection in adults on ART in our study was moderately high. Having advanced clinical status and presence of risk factors were found to be the predicting factors for co infection. The health office should open TB/HIV co infection units in the hospitals and health workers should be cautious when a patient has an advanced disease.
Factors associated with good TB infection control practices among primary healthcare workers in the Free State Province, South Africa
Venue: BMC Infectious Diseases

BackgroundDespite the availability of TB infection control guidelines, and good levels of healthcare worker knowledge about infection control, often these measures are not well implemented. This study sought to determine the factors associated with healthcare workers' good TB infection control practices in primary health care facilities in the Free State Province, South Africa.MethodsA cross sectional self administered survey among nurses (n 202) and facility based community healthcare workers (n 34) as well as facility observations were undertaken at all 41 primary health care facilities in a selected district of the Free State Province.ResultsThe majority of respondents were female (n 200; 87.7 and the average age was 44.19 years (standard deviation 10.82) Good levels of knowledge were recorded, with 42.8 (n 101) having an average score (i.e. 65 79 and 31.8 (n 75) a good score (i.e. 80 Most respondents (n 189; 80.4 had positive attitudes towards TB infection control practices (i.e. 80 While good TB infection control practices were reported by 72.9 (n 161) of the respondents (i.e. =75 observations revealed this to not necessarily be the case. For every unit increase in attitudes, good practices increased 1.090 times (CI:1.016 1.169) Respondents with high levels of knowledge =80 were 4.029 (CI: 1.550 10.469) times more likely to have good practices when compared to respondents with poor levels of knowledge <65 The study did not find TB/HIV related training to be a predictor of good practices.ConclusionsPositive attitudes and good levels of knowledge regarding TB infection control were the main factors associated with good infection control practices. Although many respondents reported good infection control practices which was somewhat countered by the observations there are areas that require attention, particularly those related to administrative controls and the use of personal protective equipment.
Extending aromatase inhibitor adjuvant therapy to 10 years.
Venue: The Lancet. Oncology

www.thelancet.com/oncology Vol 17 July 2016 e275 Postmenopausal women with hormone receptor positive early breast cancer could benefit by extending adjuvant therapy with aromatase inhibitors from 5 years to 10 years, a new double blind, phase 3, placebo controlled trial study suggests. Paul Goss (Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Centre, MA, USA) and colleagues' study enrolled postmenopausal women with primary breast cancer who had received 4*5 6*0 years of adjuvant therapy with an aromatase inhibitor, most of whom had previously been treated with tamoxifen and who were disease free at the time of enrolment. 1918 patients were randomly assigned to receive 25 mg letrozole or placebo daily for a further 5 years. At a median follow up of 6*3 years, 67 (7% of 959 patients in the letrozole group had disease recurrence or contralaleral breast cancer compared with 98 (10% of 959 patients in the placebo group. 5 year disease free survival (the primary endpoint) was 95% (95% CI 93 96) in the letrozole group and 91% (89 93) in the placebo group, (0*66 hazard ratio [95% CI 0*48 0*91] p=0*01) 5 year overall survival was similar between groups: 93% (95% CI 92 95) with letrozole and 94% (92 95) with placebo (HR 0*97, 95% CI 0*73 1*28; p=0*83) Except for bone related toxic eff ects, which occurred more frequently in the letrozole group compared with the placebo group, the toxic eff ects were similar. Commenting on the study, Miguel Martin (Hospital General Universitario Gregorio Maranon, Madrid, Spain) said that "this [study] is very relevant clinically, is practicechanging, and should be discussed with our patients as a new option, taking into consideration the pros (reduction of contralateral breast cancers and local regional and distant metastases) and the cons (lack of survival benefi t and negative bone eff ects of letrozole) of the therapy." He continued, "Avoiding a contralateral breast cancer, regardless of the lack of benefit on survival, is a goal by itself." Goss told The Lancet Oncology, "We are conducting deeper analyses to determine which patients should or should not continue [alignment therapy] We have reduced recurrences or occurrences by 34% which is clinically very significant." However, he concluded, "Extending a therapy clinically for 5 years is important and my opinion is that..a sober judgment by properly appointed guideline committees is needed" before such changes are instituted.
A Physiological Controller for Turbodynamic Ventricular Assist Devices Based on Left Ventricular Systolic Pressure.
Venue: Artificial organs

The current article presents a novel physiological feedback controller for turbodynamic ventricular assist devices (tVADs) This controller is based on the recording of the left ventricular (LV) pressure measured at the inlet cannula of a tVAD thus requiring only one pressure sensor. The LV systolic pressure (SP) is proposed as an indicator to determine the varying perfusion requirements. The algorithm to extract the SP from the pump inlet pressure signal used for the controller to adjust the speed of the tVAD shows robust behavior. Its performance was evaluated on a hybrid mock circulation. The experiments with changing perfusion requirements were compared with a physiological circulation and a pathological one assisted with a tVAD operated at constant speed. A sensitivity analysis of the controller parameters was conducted to identify their limits and their influence on a circulation. The performance of the proposed SP controller was evaluated for various values of LV contractility, as well as for a simulated pressure sensor drift. The response of a pathological circulation assisted by a tVAD controlled by the introduced SP controller matched the physiological circulation well, while over and underpumping events were eliminated. The controller presented a robust performance during experiments with simulated pressure sensor drift.
Integrated marketing communication towards a holistic concept Zintegrowana komunikacja marketingowa w strone holistycznej koncepcji

This paper explores the concept of Integrated Marketing Communication (IMC) and presents changes resulting from its evolution. The purpose of this paper is to determine directions of development of the IMC concept and facilitate future research and empirical implementation of integrated marketing communication. Based on a descriptive review of the scientific literature, relevant and significant to the marketing communication knowledge, the authors established the state of development of the IMC concept. The overview of prevailing theories enabled the comparison of the existing definitions and main features of the concept. The paper presents changes and key drivers for the evolution of IMC. The analysis allowed the authors to identify new approaches to the concept of IMC in the world science and determine that the modern IMC concept is moving toward holistic solutions, which include strategic planning in the organisation and modern marketing knowledge. Nowadays, the integration of marketing communications means the need to seek solutions at a strategic level and value creation based on long term relationships with customers. The future of the IMC concept also means the need to conduct studies that will determine the possibility of its use in relation to different types of organisations (non profit organisations or administrative units etc. as well as various industries or business sectors.
Communication in the Digital Era and Online Corporate Communications Strategies Untapped Opportunities for Businesses in Romania

Concerning academia and theoretical research, social media and big data are two of the areas of interest with the fastest growth among marketers.The direction of research, however, is heavily oriented towards the use of various social media instruments or to the specific used tactics, rather than towards their deep understanding and towards the understanding of their place in the strategy of organizations' integrated marketing communications mix. For this reason, the author considered as very interesting and relevant the exploration of online corporate communications strategies and the untapped opportunities for businesses in Romania, as a research direction of the present paper. When considering the use of social media (including big data) by organizations present in Romania, they must not only think about consumers or the marketing objectives strictly related to them, but rather to the overall processes of the company and about all the ways in which social media can help develop the new products, supply chain management or customer relationship management. The companies' access to a large volume of relatively inexpensive data about consumers' choices, preferences and buying behaviour, enables them to develop valuable skills and actually places them in a favoured position to succeed in developing the brand equity and influence consumers' purchasing behaviour through social media.
Connecting the Dots: Data Use in Afterschool Systems. Research Brief.

Afterschool programs programs for children and youth that happen regularly after school on weekdays, weekends, and during the summer aim to keep young people safe and to foster skills needed to succeed in school and life. As concerns about every child's well being and the quality of education in low income communities have mounted, cities are increasingly implementing strategies to ensure that afterschool programs are high quality and widely available. To this end, a growing number of cities have invested in afterschool systems to coordinate disparate programs and funding streams.
An enhanced single channel algorithm for retrieving land surface temperature from Landsat series data

Land surface temperature (LST) is a critical parameter in the physics of earth surface processes and is required for many applications related to ecology and environment. Landsat series satellites have provided more than 30 years of thermal information at medium spatial resolution. This paper proposes an enhanced single channel algorithm (SCen) for retrieving LST from Landsat series data (Landsat 4 to Landsat 8) The SCen algorithm includes three atmospheric functions (AFs) and the latitude and acquisition month of Landsat image were added to the AF models to improve LST retrieval. Performance of the SCen algorithm was assessed with both simulated and in situ data, and accuracy of three single channel algorithms (including the mono window algorithm developed by Qin et al. [Z h Qin et al. 2001a] SCQin, and the generalized single channel algorithm developed by Jimenez Munoz and Sobrino [Jimenez Munoz and Sobrino, 2003] ) were compared. The accuracy assessments with simulated data had root mean square deviations (RMSDs) for the SCen, SCJ&S and SCQin algorithms of 1.363 K, 1.858 K and 2.509 K, respectively. Validation with in situ data showed RMSDs for the SCen and SCJ&S algorithms of 1.04 K and 1.49 K, respectively. It was concluded that the SCen algorithm is very operational, has good precision, and can be used to develop an LST product for Landsat series data.
If I don't laugh, I'll cry: Exploring humor coping in breast cancer
Venue: Journal of psychosocial oncology

This study examined the relationship among humor coping, optimism, neuroticism, and depression in a sample of breast cancer survivors and matched control participants. Breast cancer survivors reported marginally lower levels of depression than the controls. In both groups, humor coping was not related to depression, optimism, or neuroticism, but depression was correlated negatively with optimism and positively with neuroticism. In the breast cancer group, humor coping was correlated with the coping subscales of self distraction, positive reframing, planning, and active coping. In the control group, humor coping was correlated with the coping sub scales of self distraction, positive reframing, planning, venting, and using instrumental support. These results suggest either that humor coping is not a stable variable or that whether humor is a positive or negative coping technique depends partly on the population under study.
He II \lambda$4686 emission from the massive binary system in \eta$ Car: constraints to the orbital elements and the nature of the periodic minima

\eta} Carinae is an extremely massive binary system in which rapid spectrum variations occur near periastron. Most notably, near periastron the He II \lambda 4686$ line increases rapidly in strength, drops to a minimum value, then increases briefly before fading away. To understand this behavior, we conducted an intense spectroscopic monitoring of the He II \lambda 4686$ emission line across the 2014.6 periastron passage using ground and space based telescopes. Comparison with previous data confirmed the overall repeatability of EW(He II \lambda 4686$ the line radial velocities, and the timing of the minimum, though the strongest peak was systematically larger in 2014 than in 2009 by 26% The EW(He II \lambda 4686$ variations, combined with other measurements, yield an orbital period $2022.7\pm0.3$ d. The observed variability of the EW(He II \lambda 4686$ was reproduced by a model in which the line flux primarily arises at the apex of the wind wind collision and scales inversely with the square of the stellar separation, if we account for the excess emission as the companion star plunges into the hot inner layers of the primary's atmosphere, and including absorption from the disturbed primary wind between the source and the observer. This model constrains the orbital inclination to $135^\circ$ $153^\circ$ and the longitude of periastron to $234^\circ$ $252^\circ$ It also suggests that periastron passage occurred on $T_0 2456874.4\pm1.3$ d. Our model also reproduced EW(He II \lambda 4686$ variations from a polar view of the primary star as determined from the observed He II \lambda 4686$ emission scattered off the Homunculus nebula.
Search reliability and search efficiency of combined L\'evy Brownian motion: long relocations mingled with thorough local exploration

A combined dynamics consisting of Brownian motion and L\'evy flights is exhibited by a variety of biological systems performing search processes. Assessing the search reliability of ever locating the target and the search efficiency of doing so economically of such dynamics thus poses an important problem. Here we model this dynamics by a one dimensional fractional Fokker Planck equation combining unbiased Brownian motion and L\'evy flights. By solving this equation both analytically and numerically we show that the superposition of recurrent Brownian motion and L\'evy flights with stable exponent \alpha<1$ by itself implying zero probability of hitting a point on a line, lead to transient motion with finite probability of hitting any point on the line. We present results for the exact dependence of the values of both the search reliability and the search efficiency on the distance between the starting and target positions as well as the choice of the scaling exponent \alpha$ of the L\'evy flight component.
Seasonal morphological variability in an in situ Cyanobacteria monoculture: example from a persistent Cylindrospermopsis bloom in Lake Catemaco, Veracruz, Mexico

The phrase cyanobacteria bloom implies a transient condition in which one to few species dominates communities. In this paper we describe a condition in which the bloom is of multi year duration consisting of different morphologies of a single cyanobacteria species. Lake Catemaco, Veracruz, Mexico maintained a year round massive (10 8 trichomes L 1 population of potentially toxin producing cyanobacteria, Cylindrospermopsis spp. The trichomes are present as straight and coiled morphotypes. The relative trichome morphology abundance varied with rainy (June October) and dry seasons (November May) but total trichome abundance did not vary. Coiled trichomes and heterocytes (occurring only on coiled trichomes) were significantly more abundant, both absolutely and relatively, during the dry season. Both coiled trichome and heterocyte mean volumes were significantly smaller during the rainy season than during the dry season. Biovolumes were largest in January when water temperature was 5o C cooler suggesting buoyancy as a morphology determining factor. However, with a more than three fold lower TIN concentration during the dry season, we hypothesized that the coiled morphotype became abundant primarily because it formed heterocytes, which the straight morphotype did not. Spatial trichome and heterocyte abundance differences were small among the 15 lake sites (average CV for all dates 20% However, there was a pattern of increased heterocyte and coiled trichome abundance from lake inflow, as a nitrogen source, to outflow during the rainy season. The total volume of heterocytes per litre of lake water increased progressively four fold from a minimum early in the rainy season to a maximum at the end of the dry season. Morphological diversity, as seen in Lake Catemaco, can partially compensate for the lack of species diversity in determination of community structure.
Plan de manejo para el manglar de Sontecomapan,Catemaco, Veracruz, Mexico: una estrategia para la conservacion de sus recursos naturales

The Sontecomapan mangrove is located at Los Tuxtlas Biosphere Reserve, in the southern of Veracruz, Mexico. Currently, this area is listed in the Ramsar index with number 1342. Its biological, cultural and economical values are recognized. This ecosystem represents habitat, refuge, nesting area and nursery for numerous species. A distinctive characteristic of this mangrove is the high forest structure compared with other mangrove forests in Veracruz and as well as the high number of plants associated to this ecosystem, mainly epiphytes and orchids, many of them endangered. At the moment, their cultural value is underestimated, although the area of the swamp of Sontecomapan had relevance from the prehispanic time mainly by the Olmecan culture. Its economic value is as a food source and revenue for many people. However, several problems are affecting its conservation, such as the advance of human settlement on swamp land, illegal hunting, among others. This swamp constitutes a natural area protected administered by the Universidad Veracruzana. This paper described the initial strategy of preservation of this ecosystem, the formulation of a Management Plan. Investigation, education and conservation are the main objectives.
Anidacion del aguililla negra (Buteogallus anthracinus Deppe 1830) en el manglar de Sontecomapan, Catemaco, Veracruz, Mexico

Buteogallus anthracinus is a tipically resident specie that create its nesting at the mangrove forest of Sontecomapan. This paper describes the nesting of B. anthracinus, evaluating size, composition vegetal of the nests and the specie host tree. In 2002 and 2003 by means of routes in boat and with special emphasis to sound emmission to six nests were located on mature trees were. It was found thah Rhizophora mangle, Laguncularia racemosa and Aviccenia germinans are used by B. anthracinus as host trees. The nests are oval in shape with an average 38,5 cm of in diameter, 69,83 cm of external diameter and 52,5 cm in height. The center of the nest is constructed mainly withleaves of Avicennia germinans and the rest of Rhizophora mangle. It is discusses that the population of B. anthracinus can be dependent on the nest sites in this mangrove.
