Abstract:
Background. Although there is debate on the effectiveness of youth-focused abstinence education programs, research confirms that parents can influence their children’s decisions about sexual behavior. To leverage parent-based approaches to adolescent sexual health, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services launched the Parents Speak Up National Campaign (PSUNC) to encourage parent–child communication about sex. Previous experimental studies have found the campaign to be efficacious in increasing parent–child communication. But to date, the actual reach of the campaign and its real-world effectiveness in promoting parent–child communication has not been established. The present study addresses this gap. Method. The authors surveyed 1,804 parents of 10- to14-year-old children from the nationally representative Knowledge Networks online panel. The survey included questions about parents’ awareness of PSUNC ads and parent–child communication behaviors. The authors also analyzed market-level data on campaign gross rating points, a measure of market-level intensity of PSUNC advertising in the United States. Multivariate regressions were used to examine the association between PSUNC exposure and a three-item scale for parent–child communication. Results. Overall, 59.4% of parents in the sample reported awareness of PSUNC. The authors found that higher market-level PSUNC gross rating points were associated with increased parent–child communication. Similar relationships were observed between self-reported awareness of PSUNC and increased frequency of communication and recommendations to wait. These associations were particularly strong among mothers. Conclusions. This study provides the first field-based data on the real-world reach and effectiveness of PSUNC among parents. The data support earlier experimental trials of PSUNC, showing that the campaign is associated with greater parent–child communication, primarily among mothers. Further research may be needed to develop additional messages for fathers.

Abstract:
Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) encompass a heterogeneous group of tumors. Whereas low-grade neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are histologically well-differentiated, highly aggressive neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs) are characterized by a high proliferation rate and a worse clinical outcome. Since most NEN patients need monitoring of tumor progress and response to treatment for a long period of time, especially in metastatic disease, reliable, dynamic, and easy-to-assess biomarkers are needed. In this prospective study, we identified platelet-expressed synaptophysin (pSyn) as a novel biomarker in NENs. The level of pSyn in NENs was significantly upregulated compared to healthy donors. pSyn was positively correlated with higher tumor stages, the occurrence of metastasis, histological grading, and higher tumor proliferation (Ki67). Most importantly, high pSyn expression in our NEN cohort was shown to predict shorter progression-free survival (PFS). In conclusion, our data highlight the potential of pSyn as a novel biomarker in NENs reflecting tumor stages, grading, and prognosis.

Abstract:
Objective.(1) To describe the clinical course and response to treatment; and (2) to evaluate and compare damage accrual of distinct phenotypic subgroups of patients with clinically important psychiatric illness of pediatric systemic lupus erythematosus (pSLE).Methods.A single-center cohort study of patients with pSLE followed at a pediatric lupus clinic from 1985 to July 2009. Clinical course and response to treatment were studied. Remission was defined by absence of psychiatric/cognitive symptoms while receiving minimal doses of prednisone. Disease activity and damage were measured using SLE Disease Activity Index and SLE Damage Index.Results.Fifty-three children were included: 40 with psychosis and cognitive dysfunction (PSYC group) and 13 with isolated cognitive dysfunction (COG group). All received immunosuppressive treatment. Eighteen of 32 treated with azathioprine required a change to cyclophosphamide for poor response but none on cyclophosphamide required a change. The median times to remission were 72 weeks (PSYC) and 70 weeks (COG). Eight patients (7 PSYC, 1 COG) experienced flare following response/remission. New damage was noted in 50% of children at a median of 11 months: 57% of PSYC group, 31% of COG group. Persistent cognitive dysfunction was seen in 16% of PSYC patients and 15% of COG patients.Conclusion.Most patients responded to immunosuppressive treatment, although median time to remission was > 1 year. Roughly half the patients acquired a new damage item, most of which did not interfere with functional abilities. Fewer than 20% of patients developed neuropsychiatric damage. Both phenotypes of psychiatric pSLE responded equally well to current treatment.

Abstract:
Micromodels are ideal candidates for microfluidic transport investigations, and they have been used for many applications, including oil recovery and carbon dioxide storage. Conventional fabrication methods (e.g., photolithography and chemical etching) are beset with many issues, such as multiple wet processing steps and isotropic etching profiles, making them unsuitable to fabricate complex, multi-depth features. Here, we report a simpler approach, femtosecond laser material processing (FLMP), to fabricate a 3D reservoir micromodel featuring 4 different depths—35, 70, 140, and 280 µm, over a large surface area (20 mm × 15 mm) in a borosilicate glass substrate. The dependence of etch depth on major processing parameters of FLMP, i.e., average laser fluence (LFav), and computer numerically controlled (CNC) processing speed (PSCNC), was studied. A linear etch depth dependence on LFav was determined while a three-phase exponential decay dependence was obtained for PSCNC. The accuracy of the method was investigated by using the etch depth dependence on PSCNC relation as a model to predict input parameters required to machine the micromodel. This study shows the capability and robustness of FLMP to machine 3D multi-depth features that will be essential for the development, control, and fabrication of complex microfluidic geometries.

Abstract:
Alterations in synaptic transmission have been implicated in a number of psychiatric and neurological disorders. The discovery of small-molecule modulators of proteins that regulate neurotransmission represents a novel therapeutic strategy for these diseases. However, high-throughput screening (HTS) approaches in primary neurons have been limited by challenges in preparing and applying primary neuronal cultures under conditions required for generating sufficiently robust and sensitive HTS assays. Synapsin I is an abundant presynaptic protein that plays a critical role in neurotransmission through tethering synaptic vesicles to the actin cytoskeleton. It has several phosphorylation sites that regulate its modulation of synaptic vesicle trafficking and, therefore, the efficacy of synaptic transmission. Here, we describe the development of a rapid, sensitive, and homogeneous assay to detect phospho-synapsin I (pSYN1) in primary cortical neurons in 384-well plates using AlphaScreen technology. From results of a pilot screening campaign, we show that the assay can identify compounds that modulate synapsin I phosphorylation via multiple signaling pathways. The implementation of the AlphaScreen pSYN1 assay and future development of additional primary neuronal HTS assays provides an attractive approach for discovery of novel classes of therapeutic candidates for a variety of CNS disorders.

Abstract:
Based on SVD decomposition, an digital watermarking algorithm with the method of wavelet transform is proposed. By means of singular value decomposition to realize blind extracting, the watermarking image is embedded into intermediate frequency sub bands of wavelet composition. Finally, applying normalized cross-correlation function (NC) and peak signal to noise ratio (PSNC), it has proved that this algorithm has better invisibility and robustness.

Abstract:
Infertility is a major public health concern accounting for 10%-15% all over the world. In Bangladesh about 24.51 million patients receive infertility advice or treatment. The emotional consequences of an infertility diagnosis can be devastating. One study in Taiwan diagnosed anxiety in 23% and major depression in 17% of the women seeking assisted reproductive infertility treatment. The aim of this case presentation is to addressing the psychological consequences of infertility and its treatment. The findings of this case study are: 1. Understanding the reactions of infertility (mental engagement; psychological turmoil). 2. Consequences of therapy process (reduced self-esteem; feelings of failure, economic burden). 3. Emotional-affective reactions to therapy process (fear, anxiety and worry; fatigue and helplessness; grief and depression; hopelessness). This case study revealed that infertile women seeking treatment face several psychological-emotional problems with devastating effects on the mental health and well-being of the infertile individuals and couples, while the infertility is often treated as a biomedical issue with less attention on the mental-emotional, social and cultural aspects.Medicine Today 2017 Vol.29(1): 42-44

THE EFFECT OF FAMILY ENVIRONMENT ON LONGITUDINAL FUNCTIONING IN FIRST PSYCHOTIC EPISODES."

Abstract:
Abstract Background Family environment plays a key role in the development of psychotic symptoms (Pitschel-Walz et al., 2001; Tienari et al., 2004) and negative family environmental factors are linked to poor prognosis in psychosis (Geller et al., 2000). By contrast, a positive family environment is associated with greater improvements in negative and disorganized symptoms among individuals at imminent risk of becoming psychotic (O’Brien et al., 2006). Nonetheless, little is known about the implication of family environment on longitudinal functioning in patients that presented a first psychotic episode. Methods This study is part of the “Phenotype-genotype and environmental interaction. Application of a predictive model in first psychotic episodes” (PEPS) study, a multicentric, longitudinal, naturalistic follow-up study (Bernardo et al., 2013). The Functional Assessment Short Test (FAST) was used to assess functional outcome. The Family Environment Scale (FES) evaluated family emotional climate in different categories: COHESION (C) for mutual reliance; EXPRESSIVITY (EX), the extent to which family members express their feelings directly; CONFLICTS (CON) for open expression of anger, aggressiveness and conflict; INDEPENDENCE (IND), the extent to which family members are independent in their decisions; ACHIEVEMENT ORIENTATION (AO) for an achievement-orientated environment; INTELLECTUAL–CULTURAL ORIENTATION (ICO) for political, intellectual, cultural interests; ACTIVE–RECREATIONAL ORIENTATION (ARO) for participation in social activities; MORAL–RELIGIOUS EMPHASIS (MRE) for the importance given to ethical and religious practices and values; ORGANIZATION (ORG) for the organization in activities and responsibilities; and CONTROL (CTL), the extent to which the family considers rules and established procedures. Patients with a first psychotic episode (FEPs) and healthy controls (HCs) have been evaluated baseline and after two years of follow-up. Diagnoses at 2 years have been established according to the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV. Linear regression models have been conducted in order to assess the effect that different family environments exert on functioning at baseline but also at 2 years of follow-up, when the group of FEPs has been divided in patients diagnosed with psychotic disorders (PSYC) versus bipolar disorder (BD). All data were analyzed with the Statistic Package for Social Sciences (SPSS v.23 for Windows). All the analyses were two-tailed with alpha set at p < 0.05. Results At baseline, the total sample included 335 FEPs (mean FAST=27.8±16.1) and 253 HCs (mean FAST 3.5±8.1). At baseline the linear model was not significant neither for FEPs nor for HCs and no family environment was associated with functioning. At 2 years (mean FAST BD=13.8±15.1, mean FAST PSYC =20.98±15.4), in the BD group (F(10,14)=2.6, p=.05) worse functioning was associated with CON (β=.741, p=.004) whilst in the PSYC group (F(10,108)=3.509, p=<.001) it was negatively associated with ARO (β=- .305, p=.006) and AO (β=- .204, p=.039) and positively associated with MRE (β=.268, p=.003). Discussion At baseline, no specific family environment was associated with functioning. At 2 years, in BD worse functioning was associated with higher rates of open expression of conflict in the family whilst in PSYC it was associated with lower rates of participation in social activities and achievement-orientated family environment as well as with higher rates of religious practices and values. Family environment exerts an important role in the functioning of FEPs mainly in the long-term, with important implications for early interventions for both patients and caregivers.

Abstract:
Shared clusters represent an excellent platform for the execution of parallel applications given their low price/performance ratio and the presence of cluster infrastructure in many organisations. The focus of recent research efforts are on parallelism management, transport and efficient access to resources, and making clusters easy to use. In this thesis, we examine reliable parallel computing on clusters. The aim of this research is to demonstrate the feasibility of developing an operating system facility providing transport fault tolerance using existing, enhanced and newly built operating system services for supporting parallel applications. In particular, we use existing process duplication and process migration services, and synthesise a group communications facility for use in a transparent checkpointing facility. This research is carried out using the methods of experimental computer science. To provide a foundation for the synthesis of the group communications and checkpointing facilities, we survey and review related work in both fields. For group communications, we examine the V Distributed System, the x-kernel and Psync, the ISIS Toolkit, and Horus. We identify a need for services that consider the placement of processes on computers in the cluster. For Checkpointing, we examine Manetho, KeyKOS, libckpt, and Diskless Checkpointing. We observe the use of remote computer memories for storing checkpoints, and the use of copy-on-write mechanisms to reduce the time to create a checkpoint of a process. We propose a group communications facility providing two sets of services: user-oriented services and system-oriented services. User-oriented services provide transparency and target application. System-oriented services supplement the user-oriented services for supporting other operating systems services and do not provide transparency. Additional flexibility is achieved by providing delivery and ordering semantics independently. An operating system facility providing transparent checkpointing is synthesised using coordinated checkpointing. To ensure a consistent set of checkpoints are generated by the facility, instead of blindly blocking the processes of a parallel application, only non-deterministic events are blocked. This allows the processes of the parallel application to continue execution during the checkpoint operation. Checkpoints are created by adapting process duplication mechanisms, and checkpoint data is transferred to remote computer memories and disk for storage using the mechanisms of process migration. The services of the group communications facility are used to coordinate the checkpoint operation, and to transport checkpoint data to remote computer memories and disk. Both the group communications facility and the checkpointing facility have been implemented in the GENESIS cluster operating system and provide proof-of-concept. GENESIS uses a microkernel and client-server based operating system architecture, and is demonstrated to provide an appropriate environment for the development of these facilities. We design a number of experiments to test the performance of both the group communications facility and checkpointing facility, and to provide proof-of-performance. We present our approach to testing, the challenges raised in testing the facilities, and how we overcome them. For group communications, we examine the performance of a number of delivery semantics. Good speed-ups are observed and system-oriented group communication services are shown to provide significant performance advantages over user-oriented semantics in the presence of packet loss. For checkpointing, we examine the scalability of the facility given different levels of resource usage and a variable number of computers. Low overheads are observed for checkpointing a parallel application. It is made clear by this research that the microkernel and client-server based cluster operating system provide an ideal environment for the development of a high performance group communications facility and a transparent checkpointing facility for generating a platform for reliable parallel computing on clusters.
