The aim of this study was to examine whether a Simulation-based Empathy Enhancement program for Caregivers of the Elderly (SEE-C) was effective in increasing program satisfaction and positive emotional changes of older adults. A total of 100 older adults living alone were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The experimental group was interviewed by caregivers who experienced SEE-C while the control group was interviewed by caregivers who did not experience SEE-C. In both elderly groups, post session satisfaction and affective state were assessed using a Session Evaluation Questionnaire (SEQ). Chi-square test and Mann-Whitney U test were conducted. The experimental group (n = 49) reported significantly higher scores than the control group (n = 51) for all three categories of SEQ: session-depth (Mann-Whitney U = 1651.5, p = 0.005), session-smoothness (Mann-Whitney U = 1803.0, p = 0.000), and emotion-positivity (Mann-Whitney U = 1783.0, p = 0.000). However, the experimental group had significantly lower scores for the arousal category of SEQ (Mann-Whitney U = 873.5, p = 0.009). SEE-C could have a positive impact on interviews for elderly care in terms of raising the satisfaction of the interviewee.

1. Serum total sialic acid concentration, recently shown to be a cardiovascular risk factor, and also serum lipid-associated sialic acid concentration were measured in 15 patients with hypertriglyceridaemia (fasting serum triacylglycerol concentration > 2.3 mmol/l) showing a Frederickson's type IIB phenotype, 15 patients with hypercholesterolaemia showing a IIA phenotype and 15 age- and sex-matched normal control subjects. 2. Total serum sialic acid concentration was significantly raised in the hypertriglyceridaemic group (84.9 ± 21.5 versus 64.9 ± 20.8 mg/dl, P<0.03, Mann—Whitney U-test) compared with the normal control group, as was serum lipid-associated sialic acid concentration (23.0 ± 4.3 versus 12.0 ± 3.2 mg/dl, respectively, P<0.001, Mann—Whitney U-test). 3. Serum total sialic acid concentration was also significantly elevated in the hypertriglyceridaemic group as compared with the IIA phenotype hypercholesterolaemic group (84.9 ± 21.5 versus 58.4 ± 11.7 mg/dl, P<0.03, Mann—Whitney U-test), as was serum lipid-associated sialic acid concentration (23.0 ± 4.3 versus 14.9 ± 4.7 mg/dl, P<0.001, Mann—Whitney U-test). 4. We suggest that serum concentrations of both total sialic acid and lipid-associated sialic acid may be useful markers of cardiovascular risk which could, in part, be related to hypertriglyceridaemia.

e20597 Background: The aims of the present study were to (1) investigate the association between expressed emotion, health related quality of life, and depression, and (2) explore the association between expressed emotion and survival in patients diagnosed with hepatobiliary carcinoma. Methods: The study was prospective in design. Ninety-six patients diagnosed with hepatobiliary carcinoma were administered a battery of questionnaires that measured depression, health-related quality of life, and expressed emotion. Medical chart review was used to gather disease specific information. Mann Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis tests were performed to test differences between groups and Cox regression analyses were performed to test predictors of survival. Results: At diagnosis, 54% of the patients reported a CES-D score ≥ 16 (clinical range). Patients who reported CES-D scores in the clinical range were found to have significantly lower overall health related quality of life (Mann Whitney U= 506, p = 0.003) and in particular lower emotional (Mann Whitney U=551, = 0.009) and functional well being (Mann Whitney U=507.5, p = 0.003). Patients who reported CES-D scores in the clinical range also reported a higher frequency of cancer-related symptoms (Mann Whitney U=503.5, p= 0.002) at diagnosis using the FACT-Hepatobiliary module. Patients who reported lower levels of emotional expression were found to have higher levels of depression (Mann Whitney U-6.6, p=0.04) and lower social and family well-being (Mann Whitney U=6.4, p=0.04). Using Cox regression, sociodemographic and disease-specific characteristics, depression, and expressed emotion were entered into a model. Significant predictors of survival included greater number of lesions (p=0.04), larger size of tumor (p=0.02), and lower levels of emotional expression (p=0.03). Conclusions: Preliminary findings suggest that patients with low levels of emotional expression reported higher rates of depression, poorer quality of life, and shorter survival. Interventions should be developed to treat symptoms of depression to improve quality of life. Expression of both positive and negative emotions should be encouraged by health care professionals. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Full textAbstract:
Invasive ductal carcinomas with a non-invasive component (IDC-DCIS) are classified as a group of invasive breast carcinomas, together with pure invasive ductal carcinomas of the breast (IDC). MicroRNA-21 (miR-21) has been characterized as a factor of breast cancer invasiveness, however the difference in miR-21 expression levels between IDC-DCIS and pure IDC tumors and the correlations with standard diagnostic and prognostic parameters inside the IDC-DCIS group are unknown. Our aim was to determine if miR-21 had the ability to distinguish these two invasive breast cancer groups. Levels of miR-21 expression were measured by a stem-loop quantitative Real-Time PCR (RT-qPCR) method. Expression levels of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her-2) and proliferative index Ki-67 were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. IDC-DCIS tumors had significantly lower levels of miR-21 expression in grade 2 (P=0.003, Mann-Whitney U test), ER positive (P=0.025, Mann-Whitney U test) and PR positive tumors (P=0.024, Mann-Whitney U test) than pure IDCs. miR-21 levels showed a different pattern of expression in IDC-DCIS compared to IDC tumors, which is based on the difference in miR-21 expression between Her-2 negative and Her-2 positive IDC-DCIS tumors (P=0.030, Mann-Whitney U test) and high negative correlation of miR-21 levels with PR levels (?=-0.886, P=0.006, Spearman correlation). According to our results, IDC-DCIS breast carcinomas act in a different manner in pure IDC tumors with regard to the relations between miR-21 expression levels and the standard diagnostic and prognostic parameters, such as Her-2 status, ER and PR status and protein levels.

Wetlands is a superior way to purify water environment. However monitoring and discriminating among vegetation covers types are critical to understanding population distribution, biogeochemical functioning and the process of wetland recovery. Recently, remote sensing technology has become an important tool to monitor wetland vegetation. Typical wetland plants Bidens Pilosa, Scirpus planiculumis, Phragmites australis and Typha angustifolia in Wild duck wetland were chosen, and Mann-Whitney U-test were used to analyze the spectral characteristics. There were typical vegetation spectral characteristics of dominant species spectral reflectance curve. There are differences among reflective spctral characteristic of species, especially in the green peak and steep reflection. According to the results of Mann-Whitney U-test, the highest frequency bands appeared in702-715732-745747nm, the classification precision of Bidens pilosa , Scirpus planiculumis and Phragmites australis are 100%, 100%, 80%. While It is difficult to distinguish Typha angustifolia from other species effectively using the three spectrum regions.

We tested whether the fish Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in a monosex male group spends more energy and displays an agonistic profile, differently from males in male-female groups. Such differences are expected because males and females should compete for different reproductive resources. An intruder male (MM) or female (MF) was paired with a resident male and agonistic interaction was quantified during 20 minutes, 10 minutes after pairing and another 10 minutes period 30 minutes later. Energetic cost was evaluated from O2 consumption, determined by Winckler's Method after 40 minutes pairing. Latency for fighting (mean ± SD, MM = 27.40 ± 25.15 s; MF = 14.22 ± 21.19 s; Mann-Whitney test, U = 33.50, P = 0.21) and frequency of the all agonistic acts in the first 10 minutes session (mean ± SD, MM < 72.30 ± 25.29; MF < 73.50 ± 21.65.10/min; Mann-Whitney test, P > 0.10) were not affected by group composition, thus suggesting that each intruder was a potential competitor at the beginning of the agonistic interaction. However, frequency of undulation (a behavior displayed also during courtship) was higher in the MF than in the MM resident fish (mean ± SD, MM = 3.56 ± 5.89; MF = 8.56 ± 4.00.10/min; Mann-Whitney test, U = 15.50, P = 0.01) at the end of the 10 min session. Frequency of flight, however, was lower in MF than in MM intruder (mean ± SD, MM = 3.90 ± 4.33; MF = 0.44 ± 0.96.10/min; Mann-Whitney test, U = 23.50, P = 0.04). Moreover, the agonistic profile in MM groups was composed of more types than in MF groups (less fighting types were exhibited by both resident and intruder fish). Despite the behavioral differences, energy cost in terms of O2 consumption was not affected by group composition (mean ± SD, MM = 1.93 ± 0.54; MF = 1.77 ± 0.46 mgO2. gDW-1.40/min; Student's t independent test, t = 0.71, P = 0.49).

AbstractThis paper compares the physical parameters of the newer Groningen low resistance and Provox indwelling laryngectomy prostheses with the established and original Groningen device.In vitro pressure/flow profiles were determined, using specially designed apparatus, in 44 standard Groningen high resistance (GHR), 37 Groningen low resistance (GLR) and 19 Provox tracheo-oesophageal prostheses prior to insertion. GHR valves had significantly higher forward opening pressures than both the newer valves and the GHR was significantly higher than the Provox (p<0.01: Mann-Whitney U-test). The mean forward resistance of GHR was significantly higher than that of both; the Provox valve was significantly lower than that of GLR (p<0.0001: Mann-Whitney U-test). This may be of relevance with respect to patient acceptability, voice quality and effective duration of valve action.

Abstract: The present study was conducted to compare the performances of high-achieving sixth grade students on written computation, symbolic representation, and pictorial representation tests. The study enrolled 107 sixth-grade students in three schools. Data were analyzed by using the Kruskal Wallis and Mann Whitney-U Tests and interviews were conducted with six students. The Mann Whitney U test was utilized to explore the groups that were favored by the difference. Student performances were lower particularly in the pictorial representation test than the other two. It is interesting that the students with mathematics grade average points of 4 and 5 at the end of the first academic term failed to show the same success that they showed in the written computation test in the two other tests as well. Therefore, it can be said that the teachers evaluate the students who are good at doing operations as successful in mathematics.

Based on the Mann-Whitney U test, there are significant differences of stress level, emotional quotien, and learning behavior among junior and senior students. The limitation of this paper is the population just consists of STIESIA students, so the results can not be generalized.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of music training on preschoolers' Performance IQ (Wechsler Preschool and Primary Intelligence Scale-Revised, 1989). Preschoolers in the treatment group (N = 15) met weekly from October 1996 through April 1997. A Mann-Whitney test on Performance IQ (scaled) gain scores by group yielded U = 67, p =.059; a Mann-Whitney test on Performance IQ (raw) gain scores by group yielded U = 65, p =.049. Regressions of IQ gain scores on age showed significantly less gain for older children in the control group (N = 15). A regression analysis showed that the relationship of Performance IQ to age was not significant for the treatment group. Slopes intersected at age 3. For 3-year-olds in this study, an intellectually stimulating environment, per se, results in a gain in the ability to perform spatial-temporal tasks.

AbstractObjectiveThis study aimed to compare the necessary scutum defect for transmeatal visualisation of middle-ear landmarks between an endoscopic and microscopic approach.MethodHuman cadaveric heads were used. In group 1, middle-ear landmarks were visualised by endoscope (group 1 endoscopic approach) and subsequently by microscope (group 1 microscopic approach following endoscopy). In group 2, landmarks were visualised solely microscopically (group 2 microscopic approach). The amount of resected bone was evaluated via computed tomography scans.ResultsIn the group 1 endoscopic approach, a median of 6.84 mm3 bone was resected. No statistically significant difference (Mann–Whitney U test, p = 0.163, U = 49.000) was found between the group 1 microscopic approach following endoscopy (median 17.84 mm3) and the group 2 microscopic approach (median 20.08 mm3), so these were combined. The difference between the group 1 endoscopic approach and the group 1 microscopic approach following endoscopy plus group 2 microscopic approach (median 18.16 mm3) was statistically significant (Mann–Whitney U test, p < 0.001, U = 18.000).ConclusionThis study showed that endoscopic transmeatal visualisation of middle-ear landmarks preserves more of the bony scutum than a microscopic transmeatal approach.

Full textAbstract:
OBJECTIVE: Our goal was to evaluate the analytical performance of the novel immunoassay platform and to compare the agreement between thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and FT4 results, obtained by novel and currently used platform.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Both immunoassay platforms, current Immulite 2000 and novel Maglumi 800, are based on chemiluminecsence immunoassay method. Analytical performance was evaluated by the use of serum pools and commercial quality control samples. The comparison study was carried out with 80 serum samples. Obtained results were analyzed by descriptive statistics, Mann–Whitney U-test, and Paired t-test. Method comparison was performed with Passing-Bablok regression analysis and Bland-Altman plots.
RESULTS: TSH Maglumi 800 showed better within-run precision for both concentration ranges (1.7–2.8 CV%) in comparison to Immulite 2000 (4.4–5.7 CV%). FT4 Maglumi 800 imprecision was higher compared with Immulite 2000 FT4 in both within-run (3.5–3.9 CV% vs. 4.9–6.6 CV%) and between-run (3.6–4.2 CV% vs. 4.6–5.9 CV%) tests. Mann–Whitney U-test for TSH revealed non-significant difference between data (p = 0.9011). Regression analysis showed no systematic (intercept = 0.01), nor proportional (slope = 0.9781) differences. Non-significant bias was observed in Bland-Altman Plots. For FT4, we found significant differences between methods using paired t-test (t39 = 10.5, p < 0.0001) and significant difference (p = 0.00745) with Mann–Whitney U-test. Bland-Altman plot revealed 22.8% average bias.
CONCLUSION: TSH evaluation showed good precision and close agreement between Maglumi 800 and Immulite 2000 methods, which assures transferability of results. However, FT4 performance evaluation revealed higher imprecision of Maglumi 800 platform and significant differences of test results.

IntroductionThe influence of the immune deregulation on the risk and psychopathology of schizophrenia is increasingly recognized in the literature.AimTo assess the association between serum IL-1RA on schizophrenia psychopathology.MethodsWe recruited 88 schizophrenia patients (38 males and 49 females, mean age 38.12 ± 12.67 years) and 88 healthy adult control subjects (68 males, 20 females, mean age 40.63 ± 7.99 years). Lifetime psychopathology was evaluated using Operational Criteria for Psychotic Illness (OPCRIT) checklist, while current psychopathology was assessed using Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Serum samples were stored in aliquots at –80 °C. Serum levels of IL1-RA were measured using Immunoassay (ELISA).ResultsThere were statistically significant differences between schizophrenia patients and healthy controls (median ± interquartile range: 350,81 ± 227.04 and 888.74 ± 762.63, respectively [pg/ml]) (U Mann–Whitney test, Z = –7.99, P < 0.0001). There were no differences in serum IL1-RA levels between male and female among patients with schizophrenia (U Mann–Whitney test, Z = –0.22, P = 0.82) nor among healthy control subjects (U Mann–Whitney test, Z = –0.17, P = 0.86). Among schizophrenia patients, there was a trend-level association between IL-1RA serum level with negative symptoms (Spearman correlation coefficient, r = –0.23, P = 0.056), positive symptoms (Spearman correlation coefficient r = –0.22, P = 0.066), and on a statistically significant level with general symptoms (Spearman correlation coefficient r = –0.28, P = 0.018).ConclusionSerum IL1-RA level is higher in schizophrenia patients in comparison to healthy controls and it is associated with schizophrenia psychopathology.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Purpose: To evaluate the visual outcome after cataract operations in high myopia patients, whose axial length differences are longer than 2 mm.Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on patients who had received phacoemulsification cataract surgery from January 2014 to June 2020. The patients whose axial lengths and inter-eye axial lengths exceeded 26 and 2 mm, respectively, were selected. Demographic data, axial lengths, central subfield macular thickness, retinal nerve fiber layer, and best-corrected visual acuities (BCVAs) before and at 6 months postoperatively were collected. The factors related to visual outcome were analyzed using univariate, multivariate linear regression.Results: Twelve patients had an inter-eye axial length difference longer than 2 mm. The average axial lengths of longer and shorter eyes were 29.17 ± 1.94 and 26.66 ± 2.51 mm, respectively (p = 0.02, Mann-Whitney U-test). The BCVAs (logarithm of minimal angle of resolution, logMAR) of the longer and shorter eyes before the surgery were 1.09 ± 0.62 and 0.19 ± 0.16, respectively (p = 0.03, Mann-Whitney U-test). The BCVAs (logMAR) of the longer and shorter eyes 6 months after surgery were 0.19 ± 0.16 and 0.08 ± 0.10, respectively (p = 0.11, Mann-Whitney U-test). In univariate linear regression analysis, the BCVAs 6 months after the surgery showed better preoperative BCVAs (p < 0.001) and a thinner central subfield macular thickness (p = 0.001). In multivariate linear regression analysis, the BCVA at 6 months after the surgery showed significant improvement compared with preoperative BCVA values (p < 0.001).Conclusions: High myopia patients whose axial length differences exceeded 2 mm showed improved VA after cataract surgery.

Background/Aim. In vitro and in vivo studies show that CX3CL1 and CXCL16 chemokines and their specific receptors, CX3CR1 and CXCR6, respectively, mediate mechanism of neuroinflammation during the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS). The aim of this study was to investigate relative messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) levels of CX3CL1, CXCL16, CX3CR1 and CXCR6 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, as potential molecular markers of relapsing-remitting (RR) MS. Methods. The study included 43 unrelated RR MS patients, 20 of them with clinically active disease (relapse) and 23 with clinically stable disease (remission), and 28 unrelated healthy subjects as controls. Real-time polymerase chain reactions (PCR) were performed using TaqMan? gene expression assays. Relative expression (mRNA) level of each target gene in each sample of peripheral blood mononuclear cells was calculated as the mean normalized expression. Results. The levels of CX3CR1 mRNA were significantly higher in clinically active RR MS patients compared to controls [fold change = 1.38, p (Mann-Whitney U test) = 0.009], and significantly lower in clinically stable vs active RR MS patients [fold change = - 1.43, p (t-test) = 0.03]. Stable RR MS patients had significantly higher CXCL16 mRNA levels than controls [fold change = 1.33, p (Mann-Whitney U test) = 0.006]. A trend of increased CXCR6 gene expression was found in active RR MS patients compared to controls [fold change = 1.23, p (Mann-Whitney U test) = 0.08]. In either active or stable RR MS patients there were no significant correlations of the clinical parameters with expression levels of the target genes. Conclusion. The current results show that increased CX3CR1 mRNA levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells could represent a proinflammatory molecular marker of clinically active RR MS.

Background: There have been a plenty of evolution in surgical techniques of hernia repair. The current standard technique is tension-free repair. The different studies show different results with the use of laparoscopy in performing tension-free hernia repair. Hence a study was conducted to compare the laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal repair with open Lichtenstein repair regarding operative complications, pain, analgesic usage, and time to return to normal activities.Methods: A randomized control trial was conducted in the Department of General Surgery in a tertiary center from December 2010 to May 2012. All patients underwent either open Lichtenstein repair or laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal repair (TAPP). Both the procedures included a recording of operative time, operative complications, pain, analgesic usage, hospital stay, surgical site infection (SSI), and time to return to normal activities. Mann Whitney U test, student ‘t’ test and Fisher’s exact test were used to study the significance of the difference. A p-value <0.05 was considered significant.Results: The open Lichtenstein procedure was found to have a significantly less operative time compared to TAPP procedure (54±15 minutes vs. 75.7±31.6 minutes; p=0.001; CI=95%; Mann Whitney ‘U’ test). TAPP group had a significantly low pain at 12hrs and 24hrs postoperatively. There was no difference between the TAPP group and Lichtenstein group regarding the mean hospital stay (37.2±12.1 hours vs. 38.2±13.6 hours; p=0.7; CI=95%; Mann Whitney ‘U’ test). The mean time to return to work was 12.1±11.8 days in TAPP group, which was significantly lesser than the Lichtenstein group (20.9±4 days; p= 0.04; CI=95%; student ‘t’ test). No recurrence was found.Conclusions: Laparoscopic TAPP was a safe and effective procedure for inguinal hernia repair, and it can replace open procedure.

This study was carried out to explore hemostasis modifications occurring in pregnant women and thromboelastography profiles in those taking antithrombotic drugs. An exploratory study was carried out in the period from March 2017 to May 2018. Caucasian women from Southern Italy were recruited during a routine obstetric assessment. Participants were divided into four groups: T1 (gestational week <14 weeks), T2 (14–28 weeks), T3 (29–42 weeks) and T4 in the postpartum period. We investigated thromboelastography profile in 19 and 5 women administered with low-molecular-weight heparin or low-dose aspirin, respectively. “MA” value observed in the T1 group was significantly greater than that observed in the T3 and the T4 groups, while “K” in the T1 group was significantly longer than that in the T3 and the T4 groups, indicating a gradual development of a prothrombotic state (in all cases Mann-Whitney U test, p<0.05). Significant differences within “R” were observed between the T2 and the T3 and between the T3 and the T4 (“R” parameter) (Mann-Whitney U test, p<0.05). “LY30” parameter resulted to be significantly higher in the T1 group (Mann-Whitney U test, p=0.01) compared with the T4 one, indicating fibrinolysis decreases throughout pregnancy and until post partum. No significant variations were found in women administered with prophylactic doses of low-molecular-weight heparin. Significantly higher fibrinolysis (p<0.01) was observed for “LY30” parameter in women taking low-dose aspirin versus women not taking any treatments. Our data contribute to better interpret thromboelastography profile in the context of peripartum complications, which are often unpredictable and need prompt therapies.

The present study was an attempt to compare the effect of teaching Collaborative Strategic Reading (CSR) and Content-Based Instruction (CBI) on the reading comprehension of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners. To fullfill this objective, a group of 90 intermediate female EFL learners, within the age range of 17 to 19, took a piloted sample of the PET as a pre-treatment proficiency test. Sixty of them were selected as homogeneous learners and were randomly divided into two experimental groups of CSR and CBI. The CSR group receieved CSR strategy training based on Klingner, Vaughan, and Schumm's model (2001), while the CBI group receieved CBI-based strategy training, using Tsai and Shang's (2010) model. At the end of the training, another piloted PET reading test was administered as the posttest. The pre-treatment reading scores were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test whose results confirmed the pre-treatment homogeneity of the participants. The post-treatment scores were also analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test whose results indicated no significant difference in the reading posttest levels of CBI and CSR groups, U = 423.5, z = -.401, p = .688, r = -.0517. The article concludes with a discussion on the results and presenting some implications.

Abstract Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the following parameters of fetuses and neonates with omphalocele: the prevalence of coexisting congenital heart defects (CHD), abnormalities in heart function and the impact of coexisting CHD on fetal and neonatal survival. Material and methods: The study group consisted of 69 fetuses with omphalocele diagnosed and monitored at the Department of Prenatal Cardiology in our Institute in the years 2007-2017. The retrospective analisis of patients' data was performed. For statistical analysis we used Chi-square test, t-Student test and U Mann-Whitney test.. Results: In the studied group omphalocele was an isolated defect in 31.9% of the cases (22/69), in 68.1% (47/69) coexisting defects were present, in 49.3% (34/69) the coexisting defect was CHD. The most common CHD coexisting with omphalocele were ventricular septal defect (VSD), double outlet right ventricle (DORV) and atrio-ventricular septal defect (AVSD). Abnormalities of heart function were present in 43.5% (30/69) of fetuses with omphalocele: 23.5% (8/34) with normal heart anatomy and in 62.9% (22/35) with CHD. Statistically significant differences between the group with normal heart anatomy and the group with CHD regarded: Cardiovascular Profile Score (CVPS) (median 10 points vs median 9 points, U Mann-Whitney test p=0.034), neonatal birth weight(mean 3253 g vs median 2700 g, U Mann-Whitney test p=0.003), Apgar score (median 8 vs median 7, U Mann-Whitney test p=0.038) and survival rate until discharge from hospital (85% vs 52.9%, Chi-square test p=0.034). The comparison of data from 2007-2017 with data obtained from similar analysis performed in our center in 1999-2006, revealed significant improvement in the early detection of omphalocele (median 14.5 weeks of gestation vs mean 25.4 weeks of gestation), gestational age of delivery (mean 38 weeks of gestation vs mean 34 weeks of gestation) and survival rate until discharge both in neonates with normal heart anatomy and coexisting CHD (85% and 52.9% vs 70% and 23% respectively) . Conclusions: 1. The presence of coexisting CHD is an important prognostic factor in fetuses and neonates with omphalocele, so early fetal echocardiography should be performed in every case of omphalocele. 2. During the last decade (2007-2017), in contrast to years 1999-2006, we observed significant improvement in early and complete prenatal diagnosis of omphalocele. 3. We observed improvement in strategy of obstetrical management resulting in delivering neonates in a more advanced gestational age both in the group with normal heart anatomy and the group with coexisting CHD.

This study aims to analyze and compare the efficiency between conventional life insurance companies and Islamic life insurance companies in Indonesia over the period of 2014-2018. The sample of this study was taken from 10 conventional life insurance companies and 10 shariah life insurance companies that were selected based on the purposive sampling technique. Measurement of efficiency in this study was conducted using the method of data envelopment analysis (DEA) based on Bankers-Charnes-Cooper (BCC) and Charnes-Cooper-Rhodes (CCR) models of the value-added approach. This was followed by testing the hypothesis using a different Mann-Whitney U-test. Input variables used are assets, capital, general and administrative costs, and commission expenses. Meanwhile, the output variables are premiums and investment income. The results showed that conventional life insurance companies are more efficient than Islamic life insurance companies based on the BCC and CCR models. Furthermore, the results of different tests using the Mann-Whitney U-test showed an insignificant difference in efficiency between conventional life insurance companies and Islamic life insurance companies during the study period. The results of the comparison of the average efficiency value with the DEA method indicated that the efficiency level of a conventional life insurance company was better than a shariah life insurance company.========================================================================================================Studi Perbandingan Efisiensi antara Asuransi Jiwa Konvensional dengan Syariah Menggunakan Data Envelopment Analysis.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Two Cobas-Bio analyzers were found to have significantly increased imprecision, owing to absorbance errors, when we used rotors pieced together from segments of four to 10 cuvets. The difference in CV between whole/unbroken and four-cuvet or 10-cuvet segment rotors was significant by Student's unpaired t-test (P = 0.038 and less than 0.0001, respectively) and by the Mann-Whitney U test (P less than 0.0001 for either). Pieced-together rotors were found to have plastic fragments in some cuvets, both adjacent to the break points and in other positions within the segment. There was no significant difference in delta A between adjacent cuvets at break positions or in between break positions by unpaired t-test (P = 0.214) or by the Mann-Whitney U test (P = 0.235). There was a significant difference by either test (P less than 0.0001) for the delta A between adjacent cuvets in broken rotors and those in whole/unbroken rotors. We conclude that random errors in absorbance are observed both in cuvets adjacent to break positions and in cuvets removed from the break point when pieced-together rotors are used.

Eighteen people who suffered from panic attacks and/or agoraphobia were compared with 18 controls in their responses to the Schilder test for the asymmetrical tonic neck reflex. All the research individuals scored highly, compared with only a third of the control group. The result was statistically significant using the Mann-Whitney U test, suggesting a relationship between the Schilder test and panic or agoraphobic states.
