Introduction: The atopic march consists of atopic dermatitis (AD), allergic rhinitis or sinusitis (AR), allergic conjunctivitis (AC) and bronchial asthma (BA). The influence of concomitant atopic diseases on AD is under-explored. We determined the relationship between personal and family history of atopic diseases with AD severity and persistence. Methods: A cross sectional study involving AD patients was performed at dermatology clinics of two tertiary hospitals. Inclusion criterion was all patients diagnosed with AD. Demographic data, personal and family history of atopy (BA, AR and AC) were obtained by face-to-face interview. AD severity was evaluated using Investigator’s Global Assessment (IGA). AD was considered persistent if continued beyond age 12 years. Results: Sixty patients aged 21.6±17.2 participated. There were 25(41.7%) with concomitant AR, 16(26.7%) BA and 12(20%) AC. Forty seven (78.3%) patients had family history of atopy, 25(41.7%) had eczema, 24(40%) AR, 19(31.7%) BA and 2(3.3%) AC. Patients with BA [OR=3.8, 95%CI 1.04 to 14.4)], BA and AR [OR=9.74, 95%CI 1.13 to 83.67) and family history of BA [OR= 4.00, 95%CI 1.20 to 13.27) were more likely to exhibit moderate-severe AD. Personal AR, AC and family history of AD and BA were significantly more prevalent in patients with persistent AD. Conclusions: AR was the most common atopic disease associated with AD. Family history of eczema and AR were common. Personal BA, BA with AR and family history of BA were predictors of severe AD. Personal AR, AC and family history of AD and BA were associated with AD persistence.

AbstractObjective:The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between tuberculous meningitis and tuberculous otomastoiditis.Materials and methods:Meningeal involvement sites were investigated by magnetic resonance imaging in 32 patients (21 males, 11 females) who had previously been diagnosed with tuberculous meningitis. Clinical and laboratory findings and responses to anti-tuberculous treatment were evaluated, and the presence of concomitant tuberculous otomastoiditis was also investigated.Results:The meningeal involvement site was unilateral (in the sylvian fissure and the perimesencephalic cistern) in 28 patients (87.5 per cent), and bilateral and widespread in four patients (12.5 per cent). Tuberculous otomastoiditis was found in 11 of the patients with tuberculous meningitis (34.3 per cent). Otomastoiditis was on the same side as the meningeal involvement in nine of these 11 patients. Bilateral otomastoiditis with meningeal involvement was observed in two patients.Conclusions:Tuberculous meningitis is frequently accompanied by otomastoiditis, although the exact causal relationship between the two conditions is unclear. Since meningitis is a serious clinical condition, concomitant otomastoiditis generally remains unrecognised. Tuberculosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with otitis or otomastoiditis who do not respond to antibiotic therapy.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Neuroticism is associated with inflated somatic symptom reporting. Worry and rumination are a cognitive concomitant of neuroticism and potentially mediate the neuroticism–somatic complaint relationship. Aims: The present study examined the degree to which worry and rumination mediated the relationship between neuroticism and somatic complaints. Method: A sample of 170 volunteers, recruited via convenience sampling, took part. Participants completed a series of self-report measures: the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire Revised-Short Form, Penn State Worry Questionnaire, the Ruminative Response Scale and the Somatic Symptom Scale-8. Results: Analysis revealed significant positive correlations between neuroticism, rumination and worry. Neuroticism, rumination and worry also correlated positively with somatic complaints. Using structural equation modelling, a mediational model indicated that rumination fully mediated the relationship between neuroticism and somatic complaints. Conclusions: Findings are consistent with the symptom perception hypothesis and have implications for healthcare in terms of managing individuals who present with multiple somatic complaints. Future research would benefit from adopting a longitudinal approach to test how rumination interacts with neuroticism and somatic complaints over time.

Full textAbstract:
The most frequently reported neuropsychological deficits in schizophrenia are those of attention, executive function, and verbal memory. Whereas the former appear to be related to negative symptoms of schizophrenia, there is little agreement about which clinical symptoms are related to the verbal memory deficit. The aim of the present study was to delineate further the pattern of neuropsychological deficits in schizophrenia—especially those of verbal memory—and their relationship to clinical symptoms. One hundred patients with chronic schizophrenia and 62 healthy control subjects took part in the study. Assessments of patients took place within the first 3 weeks after admission to hospital. Nine neuropsychological tests, mainly measuring executive and memory function and attention, were administered to all subjects, and clinical symptoms, such as psychotic and negative symptoms and conceptual disorganization, were assessed in patients by means of the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Patients showed widespread cognitive deficits with verbal memory impairment best discriminating patients and controls. Conceptual disorganization was partly accounted for by poor verbal memory and a low IQ estimate, and negative symptoms by deficient word fluency; positive symptoms were not significantly related to cognitive deficits. The results indicate that there is a specific relationship between neuropsychological deficits and the more chronic of the clinical symptoms.

Full textAbstract:
The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of road traffic crashes (RTC)–related maxillofacial injuries, the concomitant injuries occurring with them, and to assess the relationship between the severity of maxillofacial and concomitant injuries. This was a prospective study involving 201 victims of RTC seen at the Accident and Emergency Department of the University College Hospital, Ibadan with maxillofacial injuries during the study period. Demographic data of the patients, the types of maxillofacial injuries, and concomitant injuries sustained were recorded. Severity of maxillofacial injury was determined using the maxillofacial injury severity scale (MFISS), while the severity of concomitant injuries was based on the ISS. Correlations between types and severity of maxillofacial injury and types and severity of concomitant injury were conducted to determine the predictability of concomitant injuries based on maxillofacial injury severity. Data were processed using SPSS Statistical software (SPSS, version 20.0 for windows, IBM SPSS Inc, Chicago, IL). Maxillofacial injuries constituted 25.4% of RTC-related admission by the Accident and Emergency Department. A total of 151 (75.1%) patients who presented with concomitant injuries participated in the study. Eighty-one (53.6%) sustained injuries to more than one body region. Head injury was the commonest (99, 65.6%) concomitant injury, followed by orthopedic injury (69, 45.7%). Increasing severity of maxillofacial injury showed a positive correlation with increasing ISS. Also, positive correlation was noted with increasing severity of maxillofacial injury and presence of polytrauma ( p = 0.01), traumatic brain injury ( p = 0.034), and eye injuries ( p = 0.034). There was a high prevalence of maxillofacial injuries in victims of RTC. There was a high incidence of concomitant injuries noted with these maxillofacial injuries. Significantly, this study showed a direct relationship between the severity of maxillofacial injury and head, ocular and polytrauma. This study further emphasizes the need for thorough examination of patients presenting with RTC-related maxillofacial injuries.

Ramadan, Nora. "Vertical inter-unit relationship quality : the concept and its concomitants." Thesis, University of Birmingham, 2014. http://etheses.bham.ac.uk//id/eprint/5166/.
Full textAbstract:
Managing vertical relationships within diversified organizations is crucial to the attainment of overall organizational goals, yet it can also present a significant challenge. Vertical relationships can be characterised by intensified political games and incompatible interests. It is thus a contested relationship of conflicting interests; yet both parties to the relationship are motivated to maintain the relationship because they assume that its long–term benefits outweigh the costs. Whilst most of the literature focuses on managerial issues that are likely to emerge in vertical relationships, it does not appear to focus on the needs of vertically–related units and the development of such needs, particularly as the lower level unit develops. Therefore, the consequences that are likely to occur if these needs are not met have not been explored. One way to address this gap is by focusing on vertical inter–unit relationship quality; positioning relationship quality as a social resource in a power–dependence relationship (the vertical dyad). This thesis therefore aims to explore the meaning and the concomitants of relationship quality between vertically–related units in the context of diversified organisations. This is expected to contribute to the understanding of vertical inter–unit relationships by shedding light on the underlying meaning of relationship quality and the attributes that are likely to be attached to it from the perspectives of the parties to the relationship. In turn, this enables an exploration of the factors impacting on that quality as well as its consequences.

Full textAbstract:
abstract: With improvements in technology, intensive longitudinal studies that permit the investigation of daily and weekly cycles in behavior have increased exponentially over the past few decades. Traditionally, when data have been collected on two variables over time, multivariate time series approaches that remove trends, cycles, and serial dependency have been used. These analyses permit the study of the relationship between random shocks (perturbations) in the presumed causal series and changes in the outcome series, but do not permit the study of the relationships between cycles. Liu and West (2016) proposed a multilevel approach that permitted the study of potential between subject relationships between features of the cycles in two series (e.g., amplitude). However, I show that the application of the Liu and West approach is restricted to a small set of features and types of relationships between the series. Several authors (e.g., Boker & Graham, 1998) proposed a connected mass-spring model that appears to permit modeling of more general cyclic relationships. I showed that the undamped connected mass-spring model is also limited and may be unidentified. To test the severity of the restrictions of the motion trajectories producible by the undamped connected mass-spring model I mathematically derived their connection to the force equations of the undamped connected mass-spring system. The mathematical solution describes the domain of the trajectory pairs that are producible by the undamped connected mass-spring model. The set of producible trajectory pairs is highly restricted, and this restriction sets major limitations on the application of the connected mass-spring model to psychological data. I used a simulation to demonstrate that even if a pair of psychological time-varying variables behaved exactly like two masses in an undamped connected mass-spring system, the connected mass-spring model would not yield adequate parameter estimates. My simulation probed the performance of the connected mass-spring model as a function of several aspects of data quality including number of subjects, series length, sampling rate relative to the cycle, and measurement error in the data. The findings can be extended to damped and nonlinear connected mass-spring systems.Dissertation/Thesis

JEL: C25, C52, M31Actualmente, os modelos de Mistura são considerados um dos métodos de segmentação mais eficientes na área de Marketing para o estudo das estruturas de preferências. Com base numa amostra de clientes de uma Instituição Financeira, numa primeira fase, será realizada uma segmentação com base nos modelos de mistura finita, de forma a perceber as estruturas de necessidades de produtos financeiros. Com base nas perfilagens dos segmentos, será possível efectuar a avaliação da necessidade ou não de desenvolvimento de estratégias diferenciadas consoante os segmentos obtidos de forma a aumentar o valor da rendibilidade dos clientes já existentes, adequando assim a oferta de produtos. Nesta fase, serão obtidas as probabilidades de pertença a posteriori para classificar novos clientes nos segmentos mais adequados, permitindo contactar o cliente da melhor forma e com a melhor oferta. Numa segunda fase, será utilizado o modelo de mistura de regressões para perceber o impacto das acções de Marketing nos produtos detidos pelos clientes. Admitindo a existência de heterogeneidade das necessidades financeiras dos clientes, e colocando a hipótese de que as mesmas são explicadas com base nas acções de marketing realizadas, pretende obter-se um conjunto de estimativas de regressão para cada segmento identificado. A obtenção dessas estimativas de regressão, consoante a significância estatística, irá fornecer um maior conhecimento sobre a adequação da actual estratégia de marketing definida, e perceber a necessidade de afinação ou não da mesma consoante o segmento.
Nowadays, finite mixture models are one of the most efficient segmentation technique in the marketing field, in order to analyse structures of preferences in a given population. Based on a sample of clients of a given Financial Institution, the first step of this study applies a finite mixture model to understand the existing structures of financial needs of the clients. Based on the profiled segments, the need of developing different marketing strategies for each segment will be assessed, in order to increase the profit of the actual clients due to a correct contact strategy and offer of products. The probabilities of belonging to a certain segment will be obtained in order to alocate new clients in the most adequate segment, allowing to reach the clients with the best contact and offer of products strategy. In a second step, a regression mixture model will be applied to understand the impact of the actual marketing strategy in the portfolio of products of the clients. Assuming the existence of the heterogeneity in the financial needs of the clients and the fact that these needs can be explained by the acquisition campaigns, a set of regression models are estimated for each segment. Depending on the significance of this regression estimates, one understands the adequacy of the actual defined marketing strategy and decides if there is the need of improvement depending on the segment.

Full textAbstract:
Les personnes en situation d’itinérance, principalement des hommes, représentent pour certains une culture au sein de laquelle on identifie des personnes atteintes de troubles concomitants de santé mentale et d’abus de substances. Déjà vulnérables de par leur statut domiciliaire précaire, les personnes atteintes de cette concomitance le sont davantage et tendent à être plus isolées de leur famille que celles ne rencontrant pas cette double problématique. Le soutien familial est toutefois reconnu comme un élément favorisant l’engagement de comportements de santé et réduisant l’itinérance. Le but de cette étude était alors de décrire, du point de vue des hommes en situation d’itinérance atteints de troubles concomitants de santé mentale et d’abus de substances, les relations qu’ils entretiennent avec leur famille. Pour ce faire, le devis choisi fût une ethnographie ciblée. Différents degrés d’observation participante au sein de la Mission Old Brewery et des entrevues avec neuf informateurs-clés ont été les principales méthodes de collecte des données. L’analyse des données qualitative était soutenue par le guide proposé par Roper et Shapira (2000) ainsi que l’épistémologie constructiviste et l’approche systémique familiale de Calgary (Wright & Leahey, 2013) qui furent les cadres de référence de cette étude. Les résultats font ressortir trois thèmes explicitant 1) l’influence du contexte de vie dans les relations familiales, 2) la teneur conflictuelle de ces relations ainsi que 3) le soutien familial perçu. Finalement, des recommandations pour la pratique infirmière ainsi que des pistes pour de futures recherches sont suggérées.Homeless people are largely represented of men and account for some culture in which we identify people with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse. Already vulnerable because of their precarious housing status, people with this conjunction are even more vulnerable and tend to be more isolated from their families than those who don’t meet this dual challenge. Family support is however recognized as an element favoring the commitment of health behaviors and reducing homelessness. The purpose of this targeted ethnography was to described, in terms of men experiencing homelessness suffering from co-occurring mental health and substance abuse, their relationships with their families. Different degrees of participant observation in the Old Brewery Mission and interviews with nine key informants were the main data collection methods. The analysis of qualitative data was supported by the guide proposed by Roper and Shapira (2000) and constructivist epistemology and the family systematic approach of Calgary (Wright & Leahey, 2013) who were the frameworks of this study. The results highlight three themes explaining 1) the influence of the living environment in family relationships, 2) the conflictual content of these relations and 3) the perceived family support. Finally, recommendations for nursing practice and ways to future research are suggested.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter describes the close relationship between the mental faculty of attention and the physical faculty of orienting, and the importance of this relationship to the construction of artificial biomimetic systems. It reviews the importance of physical orienting to natural motor behavior, which places attention management at the core of all behaviors (“orienting is acting”), and the concomitant social role of physical orienting both in expressing and revealing the focus of a mind. The article highlights the efficiency of top-down and bottom-up processing for behavioral control, using map-based saliency processing as a model, and the suitability of map-based algorithms for parallel or bespoke computation. Given this, and the similar nature of the challenges faced by artificial and natural sensorimotor systems, it is argued that attention management may be a, if not the, key component of future artificial motor control systems.

Full textAbstract:
The issue of sovereignty over natural resources has been a key element in the development of international law, notably leading to the emergence of the principle of States’ permanent sovereignty over their natural resources. However, concomitant to this focus on States’ sovereignty, international human rights law proclaims the right of peoples to self-determination over their natural resources. This has led to a complex and ambivalent relationship between the principle of States’ sovereignty over natural resources and peoples’ rights to natural resources. This chapter analyses this conflicting relationship and examines the emergence of the right of peoples to freely dispose of their natural resources and evaluates its potential role in contemporary advocacy. It notably explores how indigenous peoples have called for the revival of their right to sovereignty over natural resources, and how the global peasants’ movement has pushed for the recognition of the concept of food sovereignty.

This chapter addresses how the continuity of individual and communal religious identity can be preserved in a modern context characterized by a rapid rise in religious diversity and a concomitant decline in traditional religious association. The chapter discusses various postures that religious communities can take in such a context. The authors advocate an intentional and engaged religious pluralism, achieved through “interfaith education.” This concept is defined and parsed into three activities in which religious communities should engage: developing a theology of interfaith cooperation, nurturing appreciative knowledge of shared values, and engaging in relationship-building activities. The chapter concludes with a brief consideration of how North American seminaries have been on the vanguard of adopting interfaith—sometimes referred to as multifaith or inter-religious—education.

This article introduces the relationship between mathematical cognition and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). The mental number line is located in the parietal lobe. Studies employing TMS have explored issues related to the mental number line. This article reviews the studies centered on the magnitude code. The results show that even though the parietal activation is nearly always present in both hemispheres, it is often asymmetric, being greater in the right hemisphere when quantification of nonverbal and nonsymbolic material is required. Neuropsychological studies confirm the relation between the magnitude code and the parietal lobe. The extent to which number-related processes are number specific, and the extent to which they overlap with other aspects of spatial or magnitude representation, is currently a burgeoning area of research. Current work is aimed to disrupt numerical processes and observe concomitant changes in brain activation.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter examines an important paradox of performance measurement and management in health care—the problem of simultaneous overload and deficit. To understand why this paradoxical situation exists, the chapter begins with a consideration of accountability and how this has changed as the performance movement has grown. It then examines why performance is being measured, what is being measured, and some fundamental problems with performance measurement. Finally, it considers the relationship between performance measurement and performance management. It concludes that this paradox of both too much and too little is inherent to measuring and managing performance, particularly in health care. This problem can be mitigated with more contextually specific approaches and greater local flexibility and dialogue. But it cannot be easily solved in highly centralized systems where such changes amount to a loss of control and a concomitant increase in social, economic and political risks.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter explores the relationship between unions and skills at the workplace. We argue that the significance of the skills agenda is broadly concomitant with a shift in the labour process beyond mass production into newer trajectories, variously described as post-Fordism, post-industrialism, flexible specialization and new production concepts. Unions are increasingly equating their members’ learning (and skills) as much as with enhancing their employability as with broader emancipation or entry into a trade. Through focusing on the contrasting cases of the UK and Sweden we show how the recent pursuit of the skills agenda has gone hand in hand with a strategic reorientation of unions, in response to more challenging bargaining environments and a declining membership base. We also argue that different approaches by unions to skills can be explained not only by national and sectoral factors but also by agency and voice mechanisms.

The chapter shows that despite the adoption of Western norms in the official sphere, the populist criticism of this pro-European trajectory with its concomitant economic and administrative policies became increasingly central to domestic politics. The “culture wars” erupting in the late 1990s and early 2000s were rooted in the radicalization of conservativism, questioning the legitimacy of post-transition regimes. In turn, the left also underwent a profound reconfiguration, with the mainstream post-communists becoming fervent advocates of liberalization and the emerging new left, feminism, and environmentalism becoming increasingly anti-liberal. The book closes with an overview of the symbolic geographical debates on Europeanness, and also registers the growth of Euroskepticism after 2000. Critically engaging with the application of postcolonial theory in discussions on the region’s relationship to the West it also points to the cyclical occurrences of discourses on “catching up” and alienation which seem to indicate a longue durée regional pattern.

The significance of peers in the lives of children and adolescents is described. The chapter begins with a discussion of theory relevant to the study of peer interactions, relationships, and groups. Next examined are the prevalence, stability, and characteristics of children’s friendships, the psychosocial correlates and consequences of having a mutual friendship and of having friendships with others who are experiencing adjustment difficulties. Thereafter, sections are focused on the assessment of peer acceptance, rejection, and popularity, and the behavioral, social-cognitive, affective, and self-system concomitants and longitudinal outcomes of peer acceptance and rejection. Subsequently, the extant literature pertaining to child and adolescent peer groups, cliques, and crowds is described. In the next section, the growing literature on culture and peer relationships is discussed. Then, in the summary, we present a transactional, developmental framework for understanding individual differences in children’s peer relationships experiences.

In the post-Reformation period the relationships between revenge and justice and between revenge and political resistance became newly pressing and problematic. This chapter argues that in his two revenge tragedies of the Elizabethan fin de siècle, Titus Andronicus and Hamlet, Shakespeare stages those relationships and the concomitant difficulties. In each case he was arguably using the temporal and geographical distance afforded him by the play's setting—in the case of Titus, a remote, wholly pagan, and entirely made-up Rome, and in the case of Hamlet an entirely foreign and temporally remote (albeit also remarkably contemporary) Denmark—in order to address questions that in the context of a play about recent English history might have proven a little too close to home. The two plays share certain central characteristics—Hamlet indeed might well be read as something of a reworking of Titus—and this chapter proceeds through a comparison between the two, organized around the central triad of revenge, religion, and resistance.

This article presents a value exchange model of privacy and security for electronic customer relationship management within an electronic commerce environment. Enterprises and customers must carefully manage these new virtual relationships in order to ensure that they both derive value from them and minimize unintended consequences that result from the concomitant exchange of personal information that occurs in e-commerce. Based upon a customer’s requirements of privacy and an enterprise requirement to establish markets and sell goods and services, there is a value exchange relationship.

Full textAbstract:
This article presents a value exchange model of privacy and security for electronic customer relationship management within an electronic commerce environment. Enterprises and customers must carefully manage these new virtual relationships in order to ensure that they both derive value from them and minimize unintended consequences that result from the concomitant exchange of personal information that occurs in e-commerce. Based upon a customer’s requirements of privacy and an enterprise requirement to establish markets and sell goods and services, there is a value exchange relationship. The model is an integration of the customer sphere of privacy, sphere of security, and privacy/security sphere of implementation.

Though the concept of experience was propounded decades ago, the terms such as Customer Experience Management, Brand Experience etc. have started gaining currency only recently. Renewed focus on the concept is the result of positive impacts of brand experience as evidenced by researches. Emergence of Social Media has provided the organizations with supplementary platforms to enhance customer experiences. The experiences of customers with various social media platforms may rub on to their experiences with the brands being promoted through these. Accordingly, present research studies the experience of select social media platforms in Indian context. Result revealed that the experience of Facebook was significantly favorable in comparison to the rest three platforms; however, a scope of improvement is evident. Result is important for platform developers as it helps them to improve their platforms and for Marketing managers as it guides them to associate their brands with the more favourable platforms in order to reap concomitant benefits.

This chapter combines ethnography and textual analysis to examine how modern reform has altered traditional Islamic pedagogies inside al-Azhar and the Dār al-ʿUlūm. It gives special attention to the progressive marginalization of companionship owing to bureaucratization and the concomitant reorganization of educational time and space. The chapter explains how modern reform efforts have diminished the ethical component of traditional Islamic learning. It also discusses the political implications of such reform efforts, and their relationship to European imperialism. Specific topics discussed include student freedom and the study-circle, maximizing “efficiency” and eliminating “disorder,” Al-Azhar’s faculty of Sharīʿa, the Dār al-ʿUlūm, reordering space and time, and teachers as ethical exemplars.

Full textAbstract:
Abundant evidence demonstrates pain-reducing effects of sweet solutions in human infants and animals. Analgesic effects persist up to around 1 year of age in human infants, although the effects are more moderate than seen in the neonatal period. Effects are considered to be due to the relationship between sweet taste and the endogenous opiate system. Yet, despite extensive research, knowledge gaps remain relating to the exact mechanisms, the effectiveness and safety of sweet solutions when given over prolonged periods to preterm and sick infants, the effectiveness in sick infants receiving concomitant analgesics, and the effectiveness in children older than 12 months of age. Based on the extensive evidence to support sweet solutions, their use can be recommended prior to commonly performed short lasting minor painful procedures in newborn and young infants.

This chapter traces the development of a global network of mission-minded evangelicals in the 1970s. It identifies the International Congress on World Evangelization that Billy Graham organized in 1974 as a landmark event that touched off a new era in evangelical missionary work and cross-cultural cooperation. The chapter also delves deeply into the debates and new relationship that emerged from the congress and explains how the economic, political, and social changes of the 1970s led to a renewed sense of missionary urgency among evangelicals throughout the world. It demonstrates that active involvement in this new global Christian network cultivated an internationalist outlook among U.S. evangelicals. It also links the global expansion of evangelical Christianity with the concomitant rise in evangelical political influence in the United States.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter analyzes a large swath of Plato’s Statesman (287b–311c) in order to ask, with “Plato’s Pharmacy” in the background, about the Stranger’s claim that law—and especially written law, since writing is the essence of law—is at once inferior to rule without law and yet, in a world without divine rulers, absolutely necessary for human governance. This chapter returns to many of the insights from Chapter 2 on the myth of the two ages, since what that myth demonstrated was the desirability and yet impossibility of an age in which a truly divine being rules over human beings and the concomitant necessity of trying to imitate that age through laws. Once again, we see that what is at issue in the relationship between the two ages, as well as in the relationship between a regime without law and a regime with it, are two different valences or valuations of life—the values of pure life, fecundity, spontaneity, and memory, on the one hand, and the values of death in life, forgetting in memory, and sterility in fecundity, on the other.

Abundant published evidence demonstrates the pain-reducing effects of sweet solutions in human infants and animals. Analgesic effects persist up to around 1 year of age in human infants, though there is less research to support analgesic effects in older infants and, for the existing research, effects are more moderate than seen in the neonatal period. Though the exact mechanisms are unclear, analgesic effects are believed to be due to the relationship between sweet taste and the endogenous opiate system. Based on the extensive evidence to support sweet solutions, their use can be recommended prior to commonly performed short-lasting minor painful procedures in newborn and young infants. Despite extensive research, knowledge gaps and controversies remain relating to the mechanisms of analgesia; the effectiveness and safety of sweet solutions when given over prolonged periods to preterm and sick infants; the effectiveness in sick infants receiving concomitant analgesics; and the effectiveness in children older than 12 months of age.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter addresses the profound economic consequences of creating new polities by merging cities, elites, and fiscal regimes into new urban centers. It argues that the Hellenistic polis functioned as a core economic node in the vast patchwork of the fiscal regimes of the Hellenistic kingdoms, shifting from the primarily village-and palace-based system of Persian rule. The chapter focuses on several interconnected spheres: the effects of urbanization on the civic economy (i.e., the polis itself and its fiscal regime), the issue of land tenure and the relationship between civic territory and royal land, and the concomitant creation of regional leagues and wider networks of exchange. The chapter considers the vexing issue of monetization and the extent to which urbanization can serve as a proxy for economic growth, relating this study to questions about premodern economies and the economic effects of empires that are important questions in other fields. Drawing on recent approaches of economic historians (in particular, the new institutional economics and more apolitical models of Mediterranean connectivity), it examines how the heavy reliance on urbanization reveals a more explicitly economic basis for Hellenistic state building than is often assumed.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter focuses on the characteristics of blood donors in the United States. Despite all the statistical inadequacies in the data presented, the trend appears to be markedly in the direction of the increasing commercialisation of blood and donor relationships. Concomitantly, proportionately more blood is being supplied by the poor, the unskilled, the unemployed, Negroes, and other low-income groups, and — with the rise of plasmapheresis — a new class is emerging of an exploited human population of high blood yielders. Redistribution in terms of ‘the gift of blood and blood products’ from the poor to the rich appears to be one of the dominant effects of the American blood-banking systems.

"Effect of Uniaxial Deformation, Annealing and Carbon Nanotubes on the Morphology and Mechanical Properties of Poly (Butylene Terephthalate) and PBT Nanocomposites." In ASME 2007 International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition. ASMEDC, 2007. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/imece2007-41977.
Full textAbstract:
The goal of this investigation is to elucidate the interrelations between the strain-induced crystallization behavior, morphology and mechanical properties of poly (butylene terephthalate) PBT and its nanocomposites with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs). The mechanical properties of semicrystalline polymers such as PBT depend upon the processing conditions, which affect the crystallization behavior and the resulting crystal morphology developed within the processed sample. PBT is observed to undergo strain-induced crystallization during uniaxial deformation, with concomitant changes in the polymer crystal as a function of the applied strain history. In the current work polymer morphology was investigated with wide angle XRD, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarized light microscopy (PLM). DSC results indicate an increase in crystallinity due to strain-induced crystallization during uniaxial cold-stretching, which was further confirmed with XRD analysis of the samples. Analyses of the samples under polarized light pre- and post-stretching clearly show that there is a transformation of the spherulitic crystals of the pre-stretch morphology into elongated oblong crystals, as the imposed strain exceeds a critical value. Annealing of PBT was done under different conditions to probe the effects of changes in the crystallinity obtained upon thermal treatment on polymer morphology and mechanical properties. The annealed samples were found to have high crystallinity, high Young’s modulus, and low yield stress values as compared to unannealed samples processed under similar conditions. To investigate the effects of nanoparticle loadings on PBT crystal morphology and mechanical properties, pure PBT was melt mixed with different concentrations of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs). Due to the increased nucleation rate effect associated with the incorporation of MWNTs, the PBT crystallization temperature was increased and the crystal size decreased with the increasing concentration of MWNTs. Tensile tests performed on PBT and their nanocomposite samples revealed decreases in the elongation at break values. Research is ongoing to understand the relationship between the MWNT loading levels and mechanical properties along with study of orientation of MWNTs under tensile load and its effect on strain-induced crystallization.

Full textAbstract:
Background: The current decade has witnessed rising spates of threats and attacks that have threatened the safety and security of cyberspace, thereby giving rise to contemporary discourses pertaining the realities that these ominous trends portend for technology innovation and digitalisation, in the emerging global digital society. In the process, the technological capabilities that have been used to effectively harness the efficiency that this virtual space provides for contemporary education and learning have been defamed. Aim/Purpose: This exploratory research interrogates the possible relationships between the contemporary concerns of global cyber security, and the realities and prospects of IAE and TeLEs, while elucidating the crucial factors that impose on such relationship(s). Methodology: This research adopts the qualitative research methodology with an exploratory approach to interrogate the various contemporary concerns of global cybersecurity as contained in existing literature, especially as it affects the proliferation and adoption of IT-aided education and Technology-enhanced Learning Environments (TeLEs); based on a systematic correlational analysis of key interposing concepts. Contribution: The research presents an overview of the current status and prospects of development of IAE and TeLEs, as well as the nature of the realities associated with contemporary concerns of global cybersecurity; then also discussing how these cybersecurity concerns impact on the wider adoption and implementation of IAE and TeLEs. Findings: The contemporary concerns of global cybersecurity that were discovered to impact on IAE and TeLEs include: Academic Dishonesty, Misconduct and Malpractice, Fake News, Steganography & Malware, and Cyberbullying. The interrogation of these concerns lead to an elucidation of the associated factors and interactions that have hampered the wider development and adoption of IAE and TeLEs for education, teaching and learning in the 21st century. These are properly positioned in reality by drawing on evidences and deductions from existing researches, and supported with real-life case studies to explain the implications of the portended realities for the emerging global information society. Recommendations for Practitioners & Researchers: The EMINDA cybersecurity framework for TeLEs is presented as a better way forward for lifting the future of IAE and TeLEs out of the quagmire it has been plunged into by the contemporary concerns of global cybersecurity. This framework synthesizes aspects of existing security strategies that have been deployed successfully to insure cybersecurity for various other digital and technological application domains. Impact on Society: The revolutionary impact of technology and digitization of teaching and learning in the modern era has come to stay, with exciting prospects for the future of the emerging global information society. At the same time, the realities of global cybersecurity have equally come to stay with rather daunting consequences and debilitating future prospects. This research presents a way forward even in light of these debilitating concomitant realities. Future Research: Future research would focus on implementing the EMINDA cybersecurity framework in a prototype TeLE, and evaluating the effectiveness and efficiency of the framework in guaranteeing cybersecurity for a test case sample of participants that would feature in the evaluation.

Full textAbstract:
More often then not, the rolling element bearings of rotating machinery are the mechanical components that are first prone to premature failure. Early warning of an impending bearing failure is vital to the safety and reliability of high-speed turbo-machinery. Presently, vibration monitoring is one of the most applied procedures in on-line damage and failure monitoring of rolling element bearings. This paper presents results from an experimental rotor-bearing test rig where quantified damage was induced in the supporting tapered ball bearings. Subsequently the vibration signature due to damage at the inner race of the bearing is examined. Four on-line vibration signature analyzing schemes are used concomitantly: (i) time averaging, (ii) frequency domain analysis, (iii) joint time-frequency analysis (Wigner-Ville and wavelet transforms) and (iv) chaotic vibration analysis (modified Poincare diagrams). The size/level of the damage is corroborated with the vibration amplitude and the resulting relationships are linearized to provide quantification criteria for bearing progressive failure prediction. The results from the above mentioned methodologies are compared for accuracy and redundancy, thus increasing the reliability for early detection of bearing damage and failure. It is shown that the use of the modified Poincare map can provide an effective way for identification and quantification of bearing damage in rolling element bearings.

Full textAbstract:
This paper presents experimental results from a study of the effects of periodically passing wakes upon laminar-to-turbulent transition and separation in a low-pressure turbine passage. The test section geometry is designed to simulate unsteady wakes in turbine engines for studying their effects on boundary layers and separated flow regions over the suction surface by using a single suction surface and a single pressure surface to simulate a single turbine blade passage. Single-wire, thermal anemometry techniques are used to measure time-resolved and phase-averaged, wall-normal profiles of velocity, turbulence intensity and intermittency at multiple streamwise locations over the turbine airfoil suction surface. These data are compared to steady-state wake-free data collected in the same geometry to identify the effects of wakes upon laminar-to-turbulent transition. Results are presented for flows with a Reynolds number based on suction surface length and stage exit velocity of 50,000 and an approach flow turbulence intensity of 2.5%. While both existing design and experimental data are primarily concerned with higher Reynolds number flows (Re > 100,000), recent advances in gas turbine engines, and the accompanying increase in laminar and transitional flow effects, have made low-Re research increasingly important. From the presented data, the effects of passing wakes on transition and separation in the boundary layer, due to both increased turbulence levels and varying streamwise pressure gradients are presented. The results show how the wakes affect transition. The wakes affect the flow by virtue of their difference in turbulence levels and scales from those of the free-stream and by virtue of their ensemble-averaged velocity deficits, relative to the free-stream velocity, and the concomitant changes in angle of attack and temporal pressure gradients. The relationships between the velocity oscillations in the freestream and the unsteady velocity profile shapes in the near-wall flow are described. In this discussion is support for the theory that bypass transition is a response of the near-wall viscous layer to pressure fluctuations imposed upon it from the free-stream flow. Recent transition models are based on that premise. The data also show a significant lag between when the wake is present over the surface and when transition begins.
