The Relationship

Linezolid can cause serious haematological toxicity, such as thrombocytopenia and aneamia. Heme, composed of iron and porphyrin, is an important component of hemoglobin. In order to investigate the relationship between the concentration of linezolid and heme in the plasma of infected patients, a UPLC-MS/MS method that can determine the concentrations of linezolid and heme simultaneously was developed and validated. A total of 96 healthy subjects and 81 infected patients, who received blood routine blood tests, were included and determined by the UPLC-MS/MS method. The results showed that the concentration of linezolid was 5.08 ± 3.46   μ g / mL in infected patients who were treated with linezolid. The heme in healthy subjects was 7.05 ± 8.68   μ g / mL , and it was significantly decreased to 0.88 ± 0.79   μ g / mL in infected patients ( P < 0.01 ). Spearman correlation analysis showed that linezolid had a high negative correlation with platelet (PLT) ( R = − 0.309 ). Heme had a high positive correlation with hemoglobin (Hb) ( R = 0.249 ) in healthy subjects and infected patients. The ROC analysis showed that heme had diagnostic value to distinguish low Hb (110 g/L). In conclusion, there was a positive correlation between heme and Hb, and this correlation was also observed in infected patients. A high concentration of linezolid was inclined to decrease PLT. Monitoring of heme and linezolid helps in the early diagnose of low Hb and PLT.

The purpose of this study is to explore the relation between personality traits and the level of aspiration to acquire new skills and improve one’s competence in the midst of first employment. Although with mixed results, previous studies indicated that personality attributes influence goal orientation, both in the school and work settings. However, there have not been any studies that have specifically analysed this relation in the context preceding the first employment. The results of this research, on a sample of last-semester business administration students of an esteemed mid-European university, indicate that prior to the first employment, two personality traits—openness to new ideas and disposition to negative emotions—influence the level of motivation to acquire knowledge and novel modes of action. Insight into the antecedents of an individual’s orientation towards increasing and developing competencies prior to the first employment is an important topic for organizations who have the imperative to develop more sustainable knowledge management practices in an early stage of organizational socialization.

Espoused Values

This research examines how a misalignment between an organization’s espoused values and its realized practices regarding diversity affects employees’ commitment, organizational identification, and turnover intentions. Further, it investigates whether these relationships are mediated by perceived organizational authenticity. Using an experimental methodology, Study 1 tests the interaction between an organization’s diversity management approach (espoused values) and its demographic representativeness (realized practices). In Studies 2 and 3, an intervention based on previous research involving hypocrisy and two-sided messaging is tested. In Study 4, an employee survey further supports the hypothesized mediation. These findings are relevant for any organization seeking to increase the effectiveness of its diversity management practices.

This study, analyzed the students’ communication performance and competence in the speaking class. This study also measured the students’ communication apprehension level and its correlation with communication performance and competence. 30 students of second year students of SMK Pariwisata Kosgoro Cirebon took part in this study. The data were gathered through questionnaire, presentation test to get the score of communication performance and interview test to get the score of communication competence. The correlation study was used to investigate the relation of each variable. The result from the students’ performance showed that 66,7% of the students scored below the school standard score (75) and 70% of the students scored below standard score in the interview test. The participants showed the highest apprehension to public speaking and the lowest apprehension to group discussion. Their level of apprehension showed that 43.3% students were in moderate level and 56,7% students were in high level of apprehension. It was also found that communication apprehension was negatively correlated with communication performance. While the result from the correlation between communication apprehension and competence showed that there was a very low positive correlation but, there was a high positive correlation between communication competence and performance.

Introduction Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (KNF) is a malignant squamous cell tumor occurring in the nasopharyngeal epithelial region where the cuboid epithelium is transformed into squamous cells. One of the typical signs of malignancy is uncontrolled cell proliferation. K67 is an immunohistochemical (IHC) test to assess cell proliferation activity. Increased Ki67 expression is associated with increased mitotic activity in cell proliferation. Objective To determine the correlation of ki67 expression to regional and distant metastases events of nasopharyngeal carcinoma at KNF in Dr. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted on 31 subjects of KNF patients who had been diagnosed in Oncology Division of Department of Ear Nose and Throat Head Neck Surgery, then performed immunohistochemistry inspection of KI67 in Department of Anatomical Pathology of Dr. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang. The subjects were collected consecutive sampling from October to December 2017 and performed other tests for staging such as computer tomography, chest x ray and abdominal ultrasound. Results In the Ki67 level correlation analysis of the incidence of metastasis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma, the correlation coefficient was 0.98 with very strong correlation strength and the positive correlation was not statistically significant (p=0.599). However, in Ki67 level correlation analysis of histopathology result of nasopharyngeal carcinoma was found correlation coefficient of 0.385 and positive correlation which was statistically significant (p=0.032). Conclusion Ki67 levels of metastatic occurrence in nasopharyngeal carcinoma have no statistically significant correlation. However, Ki67 level on histopathological results of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and Ki67 immunoreactivity with primary tumor has a statistically significant correlation.

The excessive use of antibiotics speeds up the dissemination and aggregation of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the environment. The ARGs have been regarded as a contaminant of serious environmental threats on a global scale. The constant increase in aquaculture production has led to extensive use of antibiotics as a means to prevent and treat bacterial infections; there is a universal concern about the environmental risk of ARGs in the aquaculture environment. In this study, a survey was conducted to evaluate the abundance and distributions of 10 ARGs, bacterial community, and environmental factors in sediment samples from aquatic farms distributed in Anhui (AP1, AP2, and AP3), Fujian (FP1, FP2, and FP3), Guangxi (GP1, GP2, and GP3), Hainan (HP1, HP2, and HP3), and Shaanxi (SP1, SP2, and SP3) Province in China. The results showed that the relative abundance of total ARGs was higher in AP1, AP2, AP3, FP3, GP3, HP1, HP2, and HP3 than that in FP1, FP2, GP1, GP2, SP1, SP2, and SP3. The sul1 and tetW genes of all sediment samples had the highest abundance. The class 1 integron (intl1) was detected in all samples, and the result of Pearson correlation analysis showed that the intl1 has a positive correlation with the sul1, sul2, sul3, blaOXA, qnrS, tetM, tetQ, and tetW genes. Correlation analysis of the bacterial community diversity and environmental factors showed that the Ca2+ concentration has a negative correlation with richness and diversity of the bacterial community in these samples. Of the identified bacterial community, Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Chloroflexi, and Bacteroidota were the predominant phyla in these samples. Redundancy analysis showed that environmental factors (TN, TP, Cl–, and Ca2+) have a positive correlation with the bacterial community (AP1, GP1, GP2, GP3, SP1, SP2, and SP3), and the abundance of ARGs (sul1, tetW, qnrS, and intl1) has a positive correlation with the bacterial community (AP2, AP3, HP1, HP2, and HP3). Based on the network analysis, the ARGs (sul1, sul2, blaCMY, blaOXA, qnrS, tetW, tetQ, tetM, and intl1) were found to co-occur with bacterial taxa from the phyla Chloroflexi, Euryarchaeota, Firmicutes, Halobacterota, and Proteobacteria. In conclusion, this study provides an important reference for understanding the environmental risk associated with aquaculture activities in China.
