    Acute kidney injury (AKI) often associated with a high hospital morbi-mortality rate in the intensive care unit patients. Kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), has many characteristics of ideal biomarker for kidney injury. The aim of this study was to compared the temporal pattern of elevation urinary KIM-1 level following critically ill children with SCr as standart biomarker of AKI. Prospective analytic observational study was conducted during October to March 2014 in the Saiful Anwar General Hospital and Physiology Laboratory Brawijaya University. There were 13 critically ill as subjects. SCr and KIM-1 levels from all subjects were measured three times ( at admission, after 1st and 6th hour). Subjects were devided into AKI - non-AKI groups by SCr level and survivor - non survivor group at the and of the observations. Results showed that there were significantly increased levels of KIM-1 in the AKI and non-AKI and survivor-non survivor group at time point. However, we found that delta KIM-1 at time point increased significant in non AKI group and survivor group. KIM-1 at admission can diagnosed AKI in critically ill children. We conclude that urinary KIM-1 is a sensitive non-invasive biomarker to diagnosed acute kidney injury in critically ill children. Increase level of KIM-1 by time shows protective and good outcome in critically ill children

    Femininity in North Korea

    Important changes are taking place inside North Korea. The collapse of the command economy, and the emergence of capitalism in its place, is ongoing. A burgeoning moneyed elite and increasing exposure to foreign pop culture are transforming how North Korean femininity is conceived. These changes are reaching far beyond Pyongyang to affect many, if not most, women in the country. Officially, North Korea’s founding juche (self-reliance) ideology supports gender equality. In practice the leadership cult that was entrenched under Kim Il-sung, who led the country from 1948 to 1994, gave patriarchal relations a significant boost. Under Kim Il-sung, the nation was recast in line with traditional, largely Confucian, male-dominated family structures — a considerable backslide from the progressive gender norms promoted by the early Korean socialist movement. Despite its rhetoric, Kim Il-sung’s juche ideology directly perpetuated gender subordination

    We consider nonlinear parabolic SPDEs of the form ∂tu=Δu+λσ(u)w˙\partial_t u=\Delta u + \lambda \sigma(u)\dot w on the interval (0,L)(0, L), where w˙\dot w denotes space-time white noise, σ\sigma is Lipschitz continuous. Under Dirichlet boundary conditions and a linear growth condition on σ\sigma, we show that the expected L2L^2-energy is of order exp⁥[const×λ4]\exp[\text{const}\times\lambda^4] as λ→∞\lambda\rightarrow \infty. This significantly improves a recent result of Khoshnevisan and Kim. Our method is very different from theirs and it allows us to arrive at the same conclusion for the same equation but with Neumann boundary condition. This improves over another result of Khoshnevisan and Kim

    MiniMol is a minimal molecular statics (MS) and molecular dynamics (MD) program accompanying the book “Modeling Materials: Continuum, Atomistic and Multiscale Techniques” by Ellad B. Tadmor and Ronald E. Miller, Cambridge University Press, 2011. In MS mode, the program performs energy minimization using a conjugate gradient minimization. In MD mode, it can perform dynamical simulations at constant energy or constant temperature using a velocity rescaling, Nose–Hoover or Langevin thermostat. MiniMol is compliant with the Knowledgebase of Interatomic Models (KIM) application programming interface. This means MiniMol can be seamlessly run with any KIM-compliant interatomic model (potential) stored within the OpenKIM repository (http://openkim.org). KIM is a major NSF-funded effort to improve the reliability, gage the accuracy, and enhance the portability of empirical interatomic potentials
