A Study of North Korea's Policy Change Through Big Data Analysis

This study analyzes “on the spot guidance” articles in Rodong Sinmun using text mining and network analysis. By analyzing the characteristics of the policies under Kim Jong-il and Kim Jong-un, and the extent to which they were linked, we determined the extent to which the policies under Kim Jong-un were inherited from the policies of Kim Jong-il’s government. Data was drawn from Rodong Sinmun archives from July 8, 1994, the date of Kim Il Sung's death, to November 24, 2020 and included articles with “on the spot guidance” in the title. Under both Kim Jong-il and Kim Jong-un, the main keywords from these articles were related to solving food problems, industrial development, and advancing science and technology. North Korea’s fundamental policy emphasis was consistent from the Kim Jong-il period to the Kim Jong-un period, though the details of the policies differed depending on the supreme leader.

Treatment-prognostication-adjustment a new therapeutic idea by analyzing T cell immune checkpoint in tumor microenvironment by algorithm: A bibliometric analysis

ABSTRACT To evaluate the temporal and spatial distribution of the knowledge network about tumor microenvironment and prognoses and explore new research hot spots and trends. Articles and reviews on tumor microenvironment and prognoses in the Web of Science journal from January 1999 to April 2022 were included. We used the CiteSpace and VOSviewer software to analyze the knowledge network composed of journals, institutions, countries, authors, and keywords. Frontiers in Immunology, Cancers, and Frontiers in Oncology have published more than 10% of articles in this field. China and the United States have contributed the most articles. Fudan University and Sun Yat-Sen University are the most active institutions. The authors in this field work closely; Zhang Wei and Douglas have made outstanding contributions. The three main research areas of tumor microenvironment and prognoses are microenvironment, prognosis, and immunotherapy. Until 2020, the main keywords were endothelial growth factor and adhesion. In the past three years, survival analysis, immune cell infiltration, and prediction model have been used. It can be seen that the focus in this field has shifted from tumor cell behavior and directly related molecules to prognosis prediction and non-tumor cells in the microenvironment. The future research trend may be to study the changes in the tumor microenvironment to predict the prognosis and guide the treatment. VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and Microsoft Excel 2019 were used to conduct a comprehensive visual analysis of the research on tumor environment and prognoses and provide valuable reference materials for researchers.

However, to date, no comprehensive or systematic bibliometric analyses have been conducted on this topic.MethodsArticles and reviews on the roles of inflammation and immunity in VC were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection on August 5, 2022. Four scientometric software packages—HistCite, CiteSpace, VOSviewer, and R-bibliometrix—were used for the bibliometric and knowledge mapping analyses.ResultsThe obtained 1,868 papers were published in 627 academic journals by 9,595 authors of 2,217 institutions from 69 countries. The annual number of publications showed a clear growth trend. The USA and China were the most productive countries. Karolinska Institutet, Harvard University, and the University of Washington were the most active institutions. Stenvinkel P published the most articles, whereas Demer LL received the most citations. Atherosclerosis published the most papers, while Circulation was the most highly cited journal. The largest cluster among the 22 clusters, based on the analysis of co-citations, was osteo-/chondrogenic transdifferentiation. “Vascular calcification,” “inflammation,” “chronic kidney disease,” and “expression” were the main keywords in the field. The keyword “extracellular vesicle” attracted great attention in recent years with the strongest citation burst.ConclusionsOsteo-/chondrogenic transdifferentiation is the primary research topic in this field. Extracellular vesicles are expected to become a new research focus for exploring the inflammatory and immune mechanisms of VC.

New advances in science mapping and performance analysis of the open innovation and tourism relationship

The number of scientific publications studying open innovation (OI) and tourism has increased since the first concept appeared. Nevertheless, there is still a gap regarding the science mapping and performance analysis of these two concepts. Although there are studies that focus on open innovation and tourism, few are studying the relationship between themes. We aimed to address this gap by reviewing the literature and searching the Scopus database using R. Bibliometrix. We identified 45 published articles between 2010 and 2022, covering 23 sources and 130 authors. The results indicate a strong collaboration network among authors. Open Innovation, Tourism, and Sustainability are the trend topics, as well as the three main keywords. The emerging topics are “open innovation in tourism”, “service innovation” and “overtourism”. Keywords, trend topics, and emerging topics can be valuable guides for researchers and help them decide which path to take in their studies in this field. This paper is a starting point for carrying out further research that relates OI to other areas of tourism, such as smart tourism or smart tourism destinations, which are highlighted in some of the most recent articles that were under this study.

Current trends of host–pathogen relationship in shrimp infectious disease via computational protein–protein interaction: A bibliometric analysis

Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are essential for understanding cell physiology in normal and pathological conditions, as they might involve in all cellular processes. PPIs have been widely used to elucidate the pathobiology of human and plant diseases. Therefore, they can also be used to unveil the pathobiology of infectious diseases in shrimp, which is one of the high-risk factors influencing the success or failure of shrimp production. PPI network analysis, specifically host–pathogen PPI (HP-PPI), provides insights into the molecular interactions between the shrimp and pathogens. This review quantitatively analyzed the research trends within this field through bibliometric analysis using specific keywords, countries, authors, organizations, journals, and documents. This analysis has screened 206 records from the Scopus database for determining eligibility, resulting in 179 papers that were retrieved for bibliometric analysis. The analysis revealed that China and Thailand were the driving forces behind this specific field of research and frequently collaborated with the United States. Aquaculture and Diseases of Aquatic Organisms were the prominent sources for publications in this field. The main keywords identified included “white spot syndrome virus,” “WSSV,” and “shrimp.” We discovered that studies on HP-PPI are currently quite scarce. As a result, we further discussed the significance of HP-PPI by highlighting various approaches that have been previously adopted. These findings not only emphasize the importance of HP-PPI but also pave the way for future researchers to explore the pathogenesis of infectious diseases in shrimp. By doing so, preventative measures and enhanced treatment strategies can be identified.

A Systematic Review of the Impact of Antibiotic and Antimicrobial Catheter Locks on Catheter-Related Infections in Adult Patients Receiving Hemodialysis.

Central venous catheter (CVC)-based hemodialysisis a major contributor to bacteremia in immunocompromised hosts. Heparin-locking CVCs is a frequent therapeutic procedure. However, it has not been shown to reduce catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs). For this systematic review, we searched PubMed, PubMed Central, ResearchGate, Science Direct, and Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) for multiple articles published between January 2018 and January 2023 to determine how antimicrobial locking solutions affect CRBSIs, which could ultimately lower the risk of morbidity, mortality, and hospitalization costs. Antilocking products, catheter-related bacteremia, central-line associated bloodstream infections, tunneled dialysis catheter, hemodialysis, antibiotic, and antimicrobial catheter locks, and the Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) method for PubMed were used as the main keywords for searching publications. A pool of 13 studies with 46,139 individuals showed that the therapy group had a lower incidence of CRBSIs than the heparin-treated control group. Furthermore, it was discovered that bacteria were resistant to gentamicin, and the use of antibiotics had no discernible impact on catheter malfunction. In conclusion, the most effective locking solution to date is an antilocking solution made up of an antibiotic or antimicrobial agent combined with low-dose heparin (500-2,500 U/mL).

The Placental Metabolic Derangements and Fetal Complications in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus: A Literature Review

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with adverse maternal and fetal complications including longer-term risk for developingT2DM, obesity and cardiovascular complications (CVD) later in their life. The placental derangements play a major role in the pathobiology of GDM. This review is aimed at to discuss the various aspects altered placental pathways in GDM, and where there are gaps in the literature that warrant further exploration. Published scientific manuscripts between 2000 and 2022 that discussed the role of insulin resistance, dyslipidaemia, oxidative stress and low-grade inflammation in the pathogenesis of GDM were reviewed. The main keywords used were insulin resistance, oxidative stress, lipid metabolism, dyslipidaemia, and low-grade inflammation. GDM is associated with maternal insulin resistance, dyslipidaemia, oxidative stress, and inflammation. These maternal derangements in GDM could affect placental and foetal lipid metabolism. The altered placental pathways could enhance the transfer of nutrients like glucose and FFA to the growing foetus causing overgrowth and adiposity. GDM foetuses experienced oxidative stress and inflammation and they could be involved in foetal programming for future metabolic diseases such as T2DM, obesity, CVD, etc. Understanding the various molecular mechanisms of placental derangements involved in the pathogenesis of GDM could expand our vision and open up avenues for therapeutic and preventive strategies for the better management of GDM women.

A Literature Review of Nurses Challenges and Barriers in Assisting Patients and Families Facing Breaking Bad News.

Breaking bad news (BBN) is a challenging task for healthcare professionals, including nurses. The manner in which bad news is delivered can have a significant impact on patients and their families, either positive or negative. Understanding the roles, methods, obstacles, and challenges that nurses face in the process of delivering bad news is crucial for improving the quality of the delivery process. This narrative review synthesises related studies. The search was conducted through PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect and Sage, with no restriction on publication year. The main keywords were 'nurse's challenge', 'nurse's barrier', 'bad news', 'breaking bad news', and 'communicating bad news.' A total of 12 articles were selected from 1075 articles. Nurses play a key role in BBN before, during and after the process. Their activities include preparing patients to receive bad news, supporting patients and families when doctors deliver bad news and clarifying information obtained by patients and families regarding the prognosis of their illness. Nurses should possess skills such as building interpersonal relationships, therapeutic communication and providing emotional care for patients and their families. The main challenges and barriers for nurses in implementing BBN are due to a lack of skills and unpreparedness for patient and family reactions. After BBN, the most reported roles of nurses were supporting patients and families and helping them understand the information received from doctors. It is essential for nurses to have the necessary skills and preparedness to effectively deliver bad news to patients and their families. Nurses play a crucial role in delivering bad news to patients and their families. They should be equipped with the necessary skills to effectively communicate with patients and their families during this difficult time. Further training for nurses in therapeutic communication, emotional care for patients and their families, and building interpersonal relationships could help to improve the quality of the delivery process.

The Primary Prevention of Atopy: Does Early Exposure to Cats and Dogs Prevent the Development of Allergy and Asthma in Children? A Comprehensive Analysis of the Literature.

The current literature shows mixed results relating to the significance of environmental exposure, such as owning a pet, and the development of atopy in children. Our review aimed to collect the most recent evidence on the association between early-life cat and dog ownership and the development of allergy and asthma. A comprehensive literature review was performed using PubMed and Scopus. The search included the main keywords of our PICO: (((early exposure) AND (children) AND (allergy)) OR (asthma)) AND (dog) OR (cat). Randomized controlled trials (RCTs), case-control studies, clinical trials, meta-analyses, and systematic reviews of children within the last five years (2018-2023) were searched and included. During the search process, 52 articles from PubMed and 43 from Scopus were found. A total of 17 articles were deemed to be suitable and included. Fairly consistent results regarding early exposure to pets, in particular dogs, and the prevention of food allergies have been described. Furthermore, there seems to be a protective effect against allergy and asthma in relation to the number of pets owned. The likelihood of a child developing allergy and asthma seems to be influenced by various factors, including the child's genetic background and early exposure to different environmental factors, including allergens that may interact with the gut microbiota and immune system.
