Background: Sepsis remains a common but fatal complication among patients with immune suppression. We aimed to investigate the performance of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) compared with standard microbiological diagnostics in patients with hematologic malignancies. Methods: We performed a prospective study from June 2019 to December 2019. Adult patients with hematologic malignancies and a clinical diagnosis of sepsis were enrolled. Conventional diagnostic methods included blood cultures, serum galactomannan for Aspergillus, cryptococcal antigen and cytomegalovirus (CMV) viral loads. Blood samples for mNGS were collected within 24 h after hypotension developed. Results: Of 24 patients enrolled, mNGS and conventional diagnostic methods (blood cultures, serology testing and virus RT-PCR) reached comparable positive results in 9 cases. Of ten patients, mNGS was able to identify additional pathogens compared with conventional methods; most of the pathogens were virus. Conclusion: Our results show that mNGS may serve as adjunctive diagnostic tool for the identification of pathogens of hematologic patients with clinically sepsis.

The LOPES experiment (LOfar Prototype Station) has been built at the KASCADE-Grande experiment in order to test the LOFAR (LOw Frequency ARray) technology and demonstrate its capability for radio measurements in Extensive Air Showers (EAS). After the first positive results in the framework of the KASCADE-Grande experiment we developed the next generation of antennas, electronics, and trigger. The main new features are easy calibration of antennas with precise detection of polarization, and good capability of self-triggering. The results from this new design are under test in Karlsruhe. Furthermore the background situation was measured and analyzed.

Genus Iris contains more than 260 species which are mostly distributed across the North Hemisphere. Irises are mainly used as the ornamental plants, due to their colourful flowers, or in the perfume industry, due to their violet like fragrance, but lot of iris species were also used in many part of the worlds as medicinal plants for healing of a wide spectre of diseases. Nowadays the botanical and biochemical research bring new knowledge about chemical compounds in roots, leaves and flowers of the iris species, about their chemical content and possible medicinal usage. Due to this researches are Irises plants rich in content of the secondary metabolites. The most common secondary metabolites are flavonoids and isoflavonoids. The second most common group of secondary metabolites are flavones, quinones and xanthones. This review brings together results of the iris research in last few decades, putting together the information about the secondary metabolites research and chemical content of iris plants. Some clinical studies show positive results in usage of the chemical compounds obtained from various iris species in the treatment of cancer, or against the bacterial and viral infections.

In this research, we design a virtual library that allows users to have a 360-degree perspective and move freely. We will focus on the function of the library not only as ‘a public facility for lending books’ but also as ‘a place for encountering new knowledge by accident.’ In modern open-stack libraries, the function of ‘a place for encountering new knowledge by accident’ is realized through the act of ‘walking around’. However, regarding the online libraries and digital libraries, which have been rapidly developing in recent years, they offer scarce functionality of ‘encountering unknown knowledge by accident’ by ‘walking around in the library’, while increasing convenience through digitization.In light of this problem, this paper devises a virtual library equipped with the function that users can move freely in the library in a 360-degree view’. By providing the state of bookshelves and books which are on display by actual 360° videos rather than artifacts such as CG or animation, users can acquire necessary related information of books while having the realistic experience of being in the library. Past digital libraries are reproductions of libraries as building structures, and the libraries’ original function of encountering books and knowledge was low. On the contrary, as for the online libraries, users can only search for book information, and cannot obtain the sense of being in the library. This study proposes a new virtual library that combines past digital library and online library.

The article deals with issues related to communication activities taught by foreign citizens. Attention is drawn to the fact that there are many unresolved issues in the methodological literature concerning the passive types of communicative activity. This article is devoted to one of these types ‒ reading, and more specifically to problems related to different types of reading in classes from Ukrainian as a foreign language. After analyzing some of the issues surrounding the topic of the study, attention is drawn to this type of reading preparation work as a study. It is emphasized that professional texts that are of practical importance for foreign students play an important role in the study of reading, helping to master the future profession. The authors of the article provide a brief description of the types of work with texts and recommendations on the types of tasks to work with them. A set of tasks for working with the text "What is Architecture?" is offered. This text can be used in classes with students of the first year of architectural and construction specialties. The pre-reading tasks are described in detail and specific examples of their application are presented (tasks for eliminating lexical difficulties, tasks for working with keywords of the text, tasks for recognizing words on formal and semantic grounds, on learning grammatical constructions, as well as tasks for improving grammatical skills). Examples of tasks that are performed directly while reading are offered, as well as post-reading tasks that are limited to traditional tasks (complete sentences based on text, retype text, etc.). Attention is also paid to the organization of methodical work in which it is possible to achieve positive results, in the text should be relevant, the texts should be selected according to the speech level of foreign students, the tasks before the text should be aimed at overcoming lexical and grammatical difficulties, and after the text should be set by the purpose is to test reading comprehension and to prepare for reproduction of the text.

The Grid has the potential to make a significant advance beyond the Internet, by turning it from a passive information medium into an active tool for creating and exploring new knowledge. Nowadays, this potential is becoming a reality and is emerging to Next Generation Grids (NGG) thanks to the far more cost-effective and universally applicable technology. Taking into consideration that Grids started delivering benefits to their adopters, this book chapter focuses on providing a business–technical presentation of two potential NGG applications, from two competitive and highly dynamic markets, including complex collaborations, which have shown rapid growth over the past decades; the supply chain management and the Cargo Transportation Logistics. The authors present a set of NGG components, the adoption of which in the aforementioned application domains addresses efficiently a set of technical issues ranging from performance to dynamic negotiation, and tackle the main trends and challenges in the corresponding business sectors.

This chapter elucidates the previously opaque and little-understood roles of foundation and National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) staff and officers, or “philanthropoids” as famous American writer Dwight Macdonald referred to them in his famous New Yorker article. These officers included program directors Walter Anderson (NEA) and Norman Lloyd (Rockefeller); vice president W. McNeil Lowry (Ford); and chairmen Roger Stevens (NEA) and Nancy Hanks (NEA). Foundation and NEA officers, as well as board of trustee members, were “interactional experts”—experts knowledgeable about a field, even if not actively contributing to new knowledge or self-identifying as experts—with tremendous influence in the operation of the system. They decided the kinds of outside voices that were heard in the decision-making process. They were gatekeepers, interlocutors, and translators between the outside consultants they recruited and grant applicants. They wielded the almighty red and black pens and their Rolodexes were a who’s who of asked experts.

Evolutionary medicine takes a functional and contextual approach to understanding health and disease. The approach is applicable to all health disciplines and can be used to better understand a wide range of medical concerns. This chapter’s goal is to outline possible areas of medicine in which evolutionary and ecological logic and principles can make important contributions and to then discuss how one may begin to train the next generation of scholars and clinicians to generate and apply new knowledge. Such an approach has the potential to be genuinely transformative, but an impediment to success is a the field of medicine’s proximate explanatory orientation for thinking about health and disease, training clinicians and researchers, and conducting research. The authors propose a change model and utilization of a Tinbergen-esque approach to revolutionize biomedical research.
