Replication Data for: Toward Cardiovascular Risks in Children with Chronic Kidney Disease

Children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at substantially high risk of morbidity & mortality from cardiovascular disease (CVD). Although this issue has been extensively studied in the adults, little is known whether similar associations exist in the paediatric population. The objective of our study is to evaluate the cardiac structure & function in children with CKD and investigate for factors that contribute to the development of CVD. We design a mixed, cross sectional – prospective, controlled study, and studied 40 children with CKD treated in the nephrology unit at a high-volume, tertiary, teaching hospital over a 13-month-period and compare them to age- and gender-matched controls of the same number with normal renal function. The following dataset files contain detailed, original values for each parameter under study. Dataset 1 is assigned for the CKD 'cases' group, while dataset 2 is for the 'control' group. The data has been saved using (*.CSV) format using Microsoft Excel 2016

Replication Data for: Balloon Angioplasty for Infantile & Childhood Coarctation of Aorta

In this prospective, interventional study, conducted over a 30-month-period, ending May 2017, we performed balloon angioplasty (BA) for 74 children (median age 10 months) with ‘native’ coarctation of the aorta (CoA). BA was successful in 89 % of patients; with peak gradient decline and angiographic improvement of 59 (95% CI, 56 to 63) and 85 (95% CI, 83 to 87) percentage, respectively. Re-coarctation was reported in 26% of cases; ‘long-segment CoA’ was the best predictor of recurrence (OR, 72). BA was most ‘durable’ in those older than 12 months. As such, BA is feasible to treat CoA in this setting. The data, herein, has been saved in the form of SPSS Statistic Data Document (*.sav

The Effect of Demarketing Strategies on Consumer Attitudes toward Household Water Consumption

Water access is a critical public policy problem that many people face worldwide. As demand for fresh water rises and supply declines, a growing number of towns will be compelled to respond to water shortages. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to determine the effect of demarketing strategies on consumer attitudes toward household water consumption. An empirical research was conducted to test the hypotheses, using primary data collected via a survey questionnaire. A structural equation model (SEM) is used to examine the data collected from 356 users. The findings reveal that there is a relationship between independent variables (i.e. product, price, place, and promotion), and consumer attitudes toward household water consumption. Furthermore, the moderator “regulation beliefs” reinforced these relationships

Higher Education Agglomeration Promoting Innovation and Entrepreneurship Based on Spatial Dubin Model

We use the panel data of innovation and entrepreneurship for global spatial autocorrelation and model selection testing. At the same time, we applied the Spatial Dubin Model (SDM) to empirically study the knowledge spillover effects of higher education campuses on regional innovation capabilities. Experimental research found that there are significant spatial differences in the innovation efficiency of universities. Specialized agglomeration can effectively improve the innovation efficiency and scale efficiency of colleges and universities. At the same time, the diversified agglomeration has no obvious effect on the innovation efficiency of colleges and universities. The accumulation of high-tech industries can effectively promote the innovation efficiency of universities. Human capital and opening to the outside world can effectively improve the innovation efficiency of universities

The univentricular heart: Revisited

Introduction: A univentricular (UV) heart is found when both atria drain mainly into one ventricle; while if either ventricle cannot sustain the systemic or the pulmonary circulation, a functionally UV heart emerges. UV heart is the source of hot debates and discussions for decades that stem from controversies in terminologies, analysis, and management. Objective: To study the morphological pattern of univentricular hearts. Design: Cohort, descriptive study. Setting: Review 13-year data from the file system of a high-volume, tertiary, teaching cardiac centre and study the patients having pathologies meeting the definition of UV heart. Results: 461 patients have UV hearts; constituting 1.4% of all patients with a congenital heart disease (CHD) visiting the centre of the study. Functionally UV heart in the form of biventricular atrioventricular (AV) connection plus one ventriculoarterial (VA) connection was seen in 179 cases (38%) with aortic atresia being the most common (N = 98; 55%). On the other hand, UV AV connection was seen in 282 cases (62%). Under this category, 203 cases (72%) show an absent AV connection and 79 hearts (28%) with double-inlet anatomy. Conclusion: UV heart is a rare complex CHD with lots of scientific debates. It is hoped that this long-term study will be the basis and a reference to paediatric cardiologists, echocardiographers, and other interested professionals

Study the Effect of solvent on the Optical Properties Performance of active polymeric laser media

The paper include studies the effect of solvent of dye doped in polymeric laser sample which manufactured in primo press way, which is used as an active (R6G) tunable dye lasers. The remarks show that, when the viscosity of the solvent (from Pure Water to Ethanol), for the same concentration and thickness of the performance polymeric sample is increased, the absorption spectrum is shifts towards the long wave length (red shift), & towards short wave length (blue shift) for fluorescence spectrum, also increased the quantum fluorescence yield. The best result we obtained for the quantum fluorescence yield is (0.882) with thickness (0.25mm) in Ethanol solvent in concentration (2*10-3mole/liter), while when we used the Pure Water as a solvent, we found that the best quantum fluorescence yield is (0.72) at the same thickness & concentration of the sample

Determination of the Inhibitory Efficacy of Iraqi Tribulus Terrestris l. Fruit Extract Against Some Types of Staphylococcus Aureus and Detection of Its Active Compounds

A total number of 50 Staphylococcus aureus (56.81)% from 88 isolates of Staphylococci were isolated and identified from wounds, burns, ear, urine, eyes, pus and skin boils, in laboratories of Maternity and Child Teaching Hospital, Ramadi Teaching Hospital, and Al-Yarmouk Teaching Hospital in Baghdad for the period from March to May/2017. Isolates diagnosis depended on microbial, cultural, and biochemical characteristics. Concentrations series of Tribulus terrestris ethanolic extract were prepared at concentrations of 3.125, 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, and 100 mg/ml with inhibition zones of 0, 0, 11.3, 16.6, 21.3, and 25.6 mm respectively, minimum inhibitory concentration determined as 12.5 mg/ml. The results of GC-MS showed that extract contains many active chemical compounds most important which phytol, pyrrole, lupeol, taraxerone, saturated and unsaturated fatty acids that play essential role in growth inhibition of bacteria and have ability to reduce biofilm production, also many active groups were identified by using fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) technique. Results showed that ethanolic extract reduced the ability of S.aureus to produce the biofilm by using sub – MIC of 50 – 81.4 %
