Title A name given to the resource Mathematical Justification Studies in Mathematics Education: An Evaluation of Studies between 2007 and 2016 Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Yasemin Yilmaz, Ülkü Ayvaz, Nazan MERSİN, Soner DURMUŞ, Hakan Yaman Description An account of the resource In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the mathematical justification studies in mathematics education between 2007 and 2016. In the study, 31 theses and articles about mathematical justification in mathematics education were analyzed by means of determined databases. In the literature review, the studies were classified according to the method, the study group, the mathematics subject, and the time frame of ten years. As a result of study, mathematical justification studies in mathematics education were carried out mostly in 2009, 2010 and 2016. As a study group, examined studies are composed mostly of students. As a method, qualitative method was used mostly. The tasks related to justification at three different levels of education were included. According to primary, middle and high school levels, the most common areas of learning for which mathematical justification tasks take place are numbers and operations, algebra and numbers and algebra, respectively.

Title A name given to the resource Bat Research Networks and Viral Surveillance: Gaps and Opportunities in Western Asia Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Kendra L. Phelps, Luke Hamel, Nisreen Al-Hmoud, Shahzad Ali, Raşit Bilgin, Ketevan Sidamonidze, Lela Urushadze, William Karesh, Kevin J Olival Description An account of the resource Bat research networks and viral surveillance are assumed to be at odds due to seemingly conflicting research priorities. Yet human threats that contribute to declines in bat populations globally also lead to increased transmission and spread of bat-associated viruses, which may pose a threat to global health and food security. In this review, we discuss the importance of and opportunities for multidisciplinary collaborations between bat research networks and infectious disease experts to tackle shared threats that jeopardize bat conservation as well as human and animal health. Moreover, we assess research effort on bats and bat-associated viruses globally, and demonstrate that Western Asia has limited published research and represents a gap for coordinated bat research. The lack of bat research in Western Asia severely limits our capacity to identify and mitigate region-specific threats to bat populations and detect interactions between bats and incidental hosts that promote virus spillover. We detail a regional initiative to establish the first bat research network in Western Asia (i.e., the Western Asia Bat Research Network, WAB-Net), with the aim of integrating ecological research on bats with virus surveillance to find &ldquo;win-win&rdquo; solutions that promote bat conservation and safeguard public and animal health across the region.

Title A name given to the resource A Bat-Derived Putative Cross-Family Recombinant Coronavirus with a Reovirus Gene. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Can-Ping Huang, William J.

Holmes, Lin Lu, George F. Gao Description An account of the resource The emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) in 2002 and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) in 2012 has generated enormous interest in the biodiversity, genomics and cross-species transmission potential of coronaviruses, especially those from bats, the second most speciose order of mammals. Herein, we identified a novel coronavirus, provisionally designated Rousettus bat coronavirus GCCDC1 (Ro-BatCoV GCCDC1), in the rectal swab samples of Rousettus leschenaulti bats by using pan-coronavirus RT-PCR and next-generation sequencing. Although the virus is similar to Rousettus bat coronavirus HKU9 (Ro-BatCoV HKU9) in genome characteristics, it is sufficiently distinct to be classified as a new species according to the criteria defined by the International Committee of Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV). More striking was that Ro-BatCoV GCCDC1 contained a unique gene integrated into the 3'-end of the genome that has no homologs in any known coronavirus, but which sequence and phylogeny analyses indicated most likely originated from the p10 gene of a bat orthoreovirus. Subgenomic mRNA and cellular-level observations demonstrated that the p10 gene is functional and induces the formation of cell syncytia. Therefore, here we report a putative heterologous inter-family recombination event between a single-stranded, positive-sense RNA virus and a double-stranded segmented RNA virus, providing insights into the fundamental mechanisms of viral evolution.

Title A name given to the resource Aeration of premises by means of protection against respiratory infections on the basis of natural fitoncydes in the complex of prevention of influenza and SARS in the conditions of the collectives of preschool and school heats concerns Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource I. V. Sergeeva, A. S. Yamshchikov, Т. A. Debelova Description An account of the resource The article presents the results obtained from the use of aeration with large forms of bactericidal spray (cedar) in preschool and school institutions in Krasnoyarsk in conjunction with individual aeration of small forms of bactericidal spray (cedar) at home in the season of rising incidence of influenza and ARVI. Due to a decrease in the total microbial contamination of the air environment and surface when using the harmless bactericidal spray (cedar), there is a decrease in the incidence of ARVI among children who regularly receive aeration for 4 weeks, and there is a lighter course of ARVI and the absence of complicated forms in 2 times in the observed children in comparison with the group where aeration was not applied. The positive results obtained during the 4-week observation, and the absence of any side effects from the spraying of bactericidal spray (cedar) allows us to recommend it for the prevention of influenza and ARVI during the period of epidemic or seasonal increase in morbidity in organized groups of preschool and school institutions. Considering that since the beginning of the heating season, dry air is installed in the premises, the use of aeration of bactericidal spray reduces the impact of harmful environmental factors on the child’s body, which is facilitated by the ionization and moistening of the air with phytoncide spray components.

Title A name given to the resource PRIORITIES OF EARLY PATHOGENETIC THERAPY OF FLUE AND SARS OF OTHER ETIOLOGY Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource V. V. Tsvetkov, G. S. Golobokov Description An account of the resource The prevalence of influenza and acute respiratory viral infections, high frequency of complications with a high mortality rate in certain groups of the population, short duration of specific immunity and the lack of efficiency of use of antiviral drugs for the treatment of patients make the problem of rational pathogenetic therapy of respiratory infections extremely urgent. The excessive local inflammatory reaction in response to the penetration of the pathogen of SARS in the body can lead to massive death of the tissue and rapid systemic spread of the infectious agent. Treatment of patients with influenza should be based on the likely dynamics of the onset of symptoms, development of complications and severe disturbances of the vital organs.According to the principle of step by step treatment, any «influenza infection» must be regarded as a potentially serious illness that threatens the patient serious complications. Even with normal flu symptoms from the first hours from the onset of the disease, it is advisable to prescribe combination of the antiviral and pathogenetic therapy. A combination of antiviral, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant therapy at an early stage in most cases allows limitation of the development of severe forms of the disease and death prevention.

Title A name given to the resource Find the right sample: A study on the versatility of saliva and urine samples for the diagnosis of emerging viruses Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Matthias Niedrig, Pranav Patel, Ahmed Abd El Wahed, Regina Schädler, Sergio Yactayo Description An account of the resource Abstract Background The emergence of different viral infections during the last decades like dengue, West Nile, SARS, chikungunya, MERS-CoV, Ebola, Zika and Yellow Fever raised some questions on quickness and reliability of laboratory diagnostic tests for verification of suspected cases. Since sampling of blood requires medically trained personal and comprises some risks for the patient as well as for the health care personal, the sampling by non-invasive methods (e.g. saliva and/ or urine) might be a very valuable alternative for investigating a diseased patient. Main body To analyse the usefulness of alternative non­invasive samples for the diagnosis of emerging infectious viral diseases, a literature search was performed on PubMed for alternative sampling for these viral infections. In total, 711 papers of potential relevance were found, of which we have included 128 in this review. Conclusions Considering the experience using non-invasive sampling for the diagnostic of emerging viral diseases, it seems important to perform an investigation using alternative samples for routine diagnostics. Moreover, during an outbreak situation, evaluation of appropriate sampling and further processing for laboratory analysis on various diagnostic platforms are very crucial. This will help to achieve optimal diagnostic results for a good and reliable case identification.

Title A name given to the resource Human monoclonal antibody combination against SARS coronavirus: synergy and coverage of escape mutants. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Jan ter Meulen, Edward N van den Brink, Leo L.M. Poon, Wilfred E. Marissen, Cynthia S W Leung, Freek Cox, Chung Y. Cheung, Arjen Q. Bakker, Johannes A Bogaards, Els van Deventer, Wolfgang Preiser, Hans Wilhelm Doerr, Vincent T Chow, John de Kruif, Joseph S.M. Peiris, Jaap Goudsmit Description An account of the resource BACKGROUND:Experimental animal data show that protection against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) infection with human monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is feasible. For an effective immune prophylaxis in humans, broad coverage of different strains of SARS-CoV and control of potential neutralization escape variants will be required. Combinations of virus-neutralizing, noncompeting mAbs may have these properties. METHODS AND FINDINGS:Human mAb CR3014 has been shown to completely prevent lung pathology and abolish pharyngeal shedding of SARS-CoV in infected ferrets. We generated in vitro SARS-CoV variants escaping neutralization by CR3014, which all had a single P462L mutation in the glycoprotein spike (S) of the escape virus. In vitro experiments confirmed that binding of CR3014 to a recombinant S fragment (amino acid residues 318-510) harboring this mutation was abolished. We therefore screened an antibody-phage library derived from blood of a convalescent SARS patient for antibodies complementary to CR3014. A novel mAb, CR3022, was identified that neutralized CR3014 escape viruses, did not compete with CR3014 for binding to recombinant S1 fragments, and bound to S1 fragments derived from the civet cat SARS-CoV-like strain SZ3. No escape variants could be generated with CR3022. The mixture of both mAbs showed neutralization of SARS-CoV in a synergistic fashion by recognizing different epitopes on the receptor-binding domain. Dose reduction indices of 4.5 and 20.5 were observed for CR3014 and CR3022, respectively, at 100% neutralization. Because enhancement of SARS-CoV infection by subneutralizing antibody concentrations is of concern, we show here that anti-SARS-CoV antibodies do not convert the abortive infection of primary human macrophages by SARS-CoV into a productive one. CONCLUSIONS:The combination of two noncompeting human mAbs CR3014 and CR3022 potentially controls immune escape and extends the breadth of protection. At the same time, synergy between CR3014 and CR3022 may allow for a lower total antibody dose to be administered for passive immune prophylaxis of SARS-CoV infection.

Title A name given to the resource First two months of the 2019 Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) epidemic in China: real-time surveillance and evaluation with a second derivative model Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Xinguang Chen, Bin Yu Description An account of the resource Abstract Background Similar to outbreaks of many other infectious diseases, success in controlling the novel 2019 coronavirus infection requires a timely and accurate monitoring of the epidemic, particularly during its early period with rather limited data while the need for information increases explosively. Methods In this study, we used a second derivative model to characterize the coronavirus epidemic in China with cumulatively diagnosed cases during the first 2 months. The analysis was further enhanced by an exponential model with a close-population assumption. This model was built with the data and used to assess the detection rate during the study period, considering the differences between the true infections, detectable and detected cases. Results Results from the second derivative modeling suggest the coronavirus epidemic as nonlinear and chaotic in nature. Although it emerged gradually, the epidemic was highly responsive to massive interventions initiated on January 21, 2020, as indicated by results from both second derivative and exponential modeling analyses. The epidemic started to decelerate immediately after the massive actions. The results derived from our analysis signaled the decline of the epidemic 14 days before it eventually occurred on February 4, 2020. Study findings further signaled an accelerated decline in the epidemic starting in 14 days on February 18, 2020. Conclusions The coronavirus epidemic appeared to be nonlinear and chaotic, and was responsive to effective interventions. The methods used in this study can be applied in surveillance to inform and encourage the general public, public health professionals, clinicians and decision-makers to take coordinative and collaborative efforts to control the epidemic.
