https://killexams.com/exam_list/SymantecSymantec Study Reveals Green IT Now Essential IT Practice
<p>Respondents indicate Green IT budgets rising and IT willing to pay more up-front for energy efficient solutions</p> <p>SYDNEY, Australia – May 28, 2009 – Symantec Corp. (Nasdaq: SYMC) today announced the findings of its 2009 Worldwide Green IT Report, a follow up to the Green Data Centre released in late 2007. According to survey data, senior-level IT executives report significant interest in green IT strategies and solutions, attributed to both cost reduction and environmental responsibility. The data points to a shift from implementing “green” technologies primarily for cost reduction purposes, to a more balanced awareness of also improving the organisation’s environmental standing.</p> <p>Ninety-seven percent of respondents, both globally and within Australia and New Zealand (ANZ), state they are at least discussing a green IT strategy, while 45 percent globally and 46 percent in ANZ have already implemented green IT initiatives. IT decision makers are increasingly justifying green IT solutions by more than cost and IT efficiency benefits. Respondents cited key drivers as reducing electricity consumption (90 percent globally and 81 percent in ANZ), reducing cooling costs (87 percent globally and 78 percent in ANZ) and corporate pressure to be “green” (86 percent globally and in ANZ). Furthermore, 83 percent of respondents globally and 87 percent in ANZ are now responsible or cross-charged for the electricity consumed in the data centre—bringing visibility and accountability to bear on the ultimate consumer of these resources.</p> <p>“The survey indicates the awareness and adoption of Green technologies and practices have significantly increased over the past year. The Green conscience of corporate Australia and New Zealand is growing and businesses are taking proactive steps to reduce their energy consumption and carbon footprint,” said Craig Scroggie, vice president and managing director, Symantec Pacific region. “This survey demonstrates the increasing importance of developing a Green strategy that delivers both environmental and financial benefits. Those businesses that demonstrate sound sustainability practices will be the ones to thrive in years to come.”</p> <p>“With the vast majority of respondents now responsible for the electricity costs of their data centre, IT departments have emerged as a driving force in implementing green IT technologies – not only for energy and costs savings benefits, but also as a result of proposed legislative requirements and a sense of environmental responsibility to their communities.”</p> <p>Budgets, Spending on ‘Green’ Solutions Increase</p> <p>IT executives report a significant increase in green IT budgets. Seventy-three percent globally and 74 percent in ANZ expect an increase in green IT budgets over the next 12 months, while 19 percent globally and 23 percent in ANZ expect increases of more than 10 percent. The typical respondent reported spending on average USD$21 to 27 million on data centre electricity.</p> <p>At the same time, IT is willing to pay a premium for energy efficient products. Two-thirds of respondents globally and more than three-quarters in ANZ said they would pay at least 10 percent more, while 41 percent globally and 42 percent in ANZ are willing to pay at least 20 percent more. Additionally, 89 percent of respondents both globally and within ANZ said IT product efficiency is either important or very important.</p> <p>IT Central to Enterprise Green Efforts</p> <p>As organisations continue to adopt programmes and practices to drive environmental responsibility throughout the enterprise, IT is increasingly important to the broader enterprise “green” efforts. Perhaps the strongest indicator, 83 percent globally and 87 percent of IT departments in Australia and New Zealand report they are now responsible or cross-charged for electricity, providing a strong motivator for IT to reduce energy costs.</p> <p>Furthermore, 89 percent globally and 86 percent in ANZ think IT should play a very or extremely significant role in ‘green’ efforts and 94 percent globally and 83 percent in ANZ have a corporate green advocate, with more than one-fifth globally and 38 percent in ANZ focusing exclusively on IT initiatives.</p> <p>Core Green IT Initiatives</p> <p>IT professionals are regularly deploying several key initiatives for green IT purposes. Replacing old equipment was the most popular strategy, with 95 percent globally and 99 percent in ANZ reporting new energy efficient equipment as part of their strategy, followed by monitoring power consumption (94 percent globally and 96 percent in ANZ), server virtualization (94 percent globally and in ANZ), and server consolidation (93 percent globally and in ANZ). Additionally, more than half (57 percent globally) of respondents see software-as-a-service offerings as “green” solutions.</p> <p>About Symantec’s Green IT Report</p> <p>Symantec’s Green IT Report is the result of research conducted in March 2009 by Applied Research, which surveyed enterprise IT executives, including vice presidents, directors and C-level IT executives. The report was designed to gauge respondents’ interest in and plans for deploying strategies and solutions to help reduce e-waste associated with computer hardware, software, facilities and planning, and ultimately reduce the organisation’s footprint. The study included 1,052 respondents in the United States, Canada, France, Italy, the U.K., Brazil, Mexico, Australia, India, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea, New Zealand and China.</p> <p>Symantec helps IT decision makers to reduce energy consumption and increase space utilisation by providing solutions that increase desktop, server and storage efficiencies.

An experimental study has found that individuals showed increased vigilance and sustained attention levels when they were administered testosterone. They rated the same stimulus as more painful compared to the ratings they gave when they received placebo. Тheir brain activity also exhibited an electrical pattern associated with paying greater attention to the stimulus at hand. The study was published Psychoneuroendocrinology.
Testosterone is a hormone primarily produced in the testes of males and ovaries of females. It is also produced in smaller amounts by the adrenal glands. Testosterone plays a key role in the development and maintenance of male sexual characteristics, including facial and body hair, muscle mass, and bone density. It regulates sexual desire, the production of sperm, and displays a wide set of effects on a number of other systems in the body.
It has also been suggested that it modulates the perception of pain. Previous studies have reported higher levels of testosterone generated by the body to be associated with lower sensitivity to pain and higher activation of brain regions involved in pain inhibition.
Other studies reported daily fluctuations of testosterone levels in the body to be inversely associated with reported pain severity among female patients with fibromyalgia, a chronic disorder characterized by widespread pain and tenderness in muscles, joints and soft tissues. This again confirmed the role of testosterone in reducing pain.
Study author Shiwei Zhuo and his colleagues wanted to verify this pain reducing role of testosterone and also study brain activity associated with this changed perception of pain. They organized a double-blind experimental study.
Participants were 30 male students from Shenzhen University in China. The researchers report that all participants were males because previous studies that included testosterone gel administration only had male participants. Female reactions to the administration of testosterone are not known.
There eight experimental sessions and each participant underwent all of them. These conditions included combinations of whether testosterone gel was administered to the participant or a placebo, whether the electric shock participant received was painful or non-painful, and whether it was predictable or uncertain.
In sessions where participants received testosterone, a 1.5% testosterone gel (Androgel) was applied to their shoulders and upper arms. In the placebo sessions, participants had an identical-looking gel with no testosterone applied in the same way. Gels were applied by a male research assistant who did not know whether he was applying the testosterone gel or placebo. In all experimental sessions, participants had electrodes attached to their left hand that either delivered a painful or a non-painful electric stimulation.
Depending on the session, the researchers presented a square or a triangle to participants that in one group of sessions indicated with certainty whether the electrostimulation that was to follow would be painful. In the other group of sessions (uncertain trials), it was not possible to accurately predict what the electric stimulation will be like based on these pictures. Participants underwent electroencephalographic (EEG) recording during the experimental sessions.
Results showed that participants reported higher intensities of pain when they were administered testosterone compared to ratings they gave in placebo sessions. Pain was also rated as higher in sessions when painful electrostimulations were unpredictable.
Analysis of EEG recordings showed greater N1 amplitude in situations when participants received painful electrical stimulations and when they received testosterone. The study authors tested a statistical model in which they assumed that the N1 neural activity mediated the effect of testosterone on the perceived intensity of pain. Data confirmed that such a model is possible.
The N1 neural activity is an event related potential associated with paying greater attention to the stimulus at hand. It is a negative deflection in the electroencephalogram waveform that typically peaks around 100 milliseconds after the onset of a sensory stimulus, such as a sound or a visual cue.
“When perceiving painful or non-painful somatosensory stimulation, testosterone enhanced the amplitude of the N1 component that reflects the early stage of somatosensory processing, thus further leading to an increase of subjective pain intensity ratings,” the researchers wrote.
“When anticipating the upcoming somatosensory stimulation, testosterone increased the expected pain intensity ratings upon viewing the predictability cues, accompanied with decreased low-frequency α-oscillation power recorded after the predictability cues but before somatosensory stimulation.”
“These results provide some causal evidence for the role of testosterone in enhancing the expectation and perception of somatosensory event, irrespective of whether the somatosensory event was painful or nonpainful.”
The paper provides a valuable contribution to the study of behavioral and neural effects of testosterone administration. However, it should be noted that these results are valid only for males. Additionally, all participants were relatively young university students. Effects on other age groups might not be the same.

Abstract and Background
Abstract
Background: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are recommended for multimodal postoperative pain management. We evaluated opioid-sparing effects and rehabilitative results after perioperative celecoxib administration for total knee arthroplasty. Methods: This was a prospective, randomized, observer-blind control study. Eighty patients that underwent total knee arthroplasty were randomized into two groups of 40 each. The study group received a single 400 mg dose of celecoxib, one hour before surgery, and 200 mg of celecoxib every 12 hours for five days, along with patient-controlled analgesic (PCA) morphine. The control group received only PCA morphine for postoperative pain management. Visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores, active range of motion (ROM), total opioid use and postoperative nausea/vomiting were analyzed. Results: Groups were comparable for age, pre-operative ROM, operation duration and intraoperative blood loss. Resting VAS pain scores improved significantly in the celecoxib group, compared with controls, at 48 hrs (2.13 ± 1.68 vs. 3.43 ± 1.50, p = 0.03) and 72 hrs (1.78 ± 1.66 vs. 3.17 ± 2.01, p = 0.02) after surgery. Active ROM also increased significantly in the patients that received celecoxib, especially in the first 72 hrs [40.8° ± 17.3° vs. 25.8° ± 11.5°, p = 0.01 (day 1); 60.7° ± 18.1° vs. 45.0° ± 17.3°, p = 0.004 (day 2); 77.7° ± 15.1° vs. 64.3° ± 16.9°, p = 0.004 (day 3)]. Opioid requirements decreased about 40% (p = 0.03) in the celecoxib group. Although patients suffering from post-operative nausea/vomiting decreased from 43% in control group to 28% in celecoxib group, this was not significant (p = 0.57). There were no differences in blood loss (intra- and postoperative) between the groups. Celecoxib resulted in no significant increase in the need for blood transfusions. Conclusion: Perioperative celecoxib significantly improved postoperative resting pain scores at 48 and 72 hrs, opioid consumption, and active ROM in the first three days after total knee arthroplasty, without increasing the risks of bleeding.
Background
Surgical trauma induces the synthesis of prostaglandins, which sensitize the peripheral nociceptors.[1] Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) inhibit prostaglandin synthesis in the periphery and the spinal cord, therefore decreasing the post-operative hyperalgesic state.[2] NSAIDs have been shown to have opioid-sparing effects[3,4,5,6] and reduce postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) by 30%.[7] However, the analgesic effects of perioperative NSAIDs are still uncertain.[8,9,10] Some studies suggest that perioperative NSAIDs Boost postoperative pain for ambulatory arthroscopic knee[11] or spinal fusion surgery.[12] However, few papers have discussed the effectiveness of perioperative NSAID in pain management after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).[13,14,15] Rofecoxib has been the perioperative coxib in previous studies. However, in September 2004, it was withdrawn from the market due to its thromboembolic effects, particularly myocardial infarction.
Celecoxib is a selective cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitor and an effective analgesic for acute postoperative pain.[16] Although pre-operative non-selective NSAID use increases the risks of bleeding,[10,17] celecoxib (1200 mg daily) has no effects on serum thromboxane or platelet functions.[16] Celecoxib (400 mg) also has similar analgesic effects in comparison with conventional non-selective NSAID.[4] To achieve less postoperative pain and better rehabilitation after TKA surgery, especially in the first week, prescription of oral celecoxib preemptively for pain management of TKA patients is reasonable. Although previous studies have evaluated the analgesic efficacy of rofecoxib, few studies to date have evaluated the efficacy of celecoxib for TKA. In this study, we hypothesized that celecoxib provides better efficacy than the use of patient-controlled analgesic (PCA) morphine, which is currently the standard therapy in our institute. We aimed to compare the difference in the pain scores at rest and ambulation, along with range of motion (ROM), morphine-sparing effects, PONV, and perioperative blood loss between patients receiving celecoxib treatment and patients receiving PCA morphine treatment after TKA surgeries.

EXCLUSIVE: The Biden administration is continuing its aggressive push to develop a direct e-file system for Americans to submit taxes despite an internal study showing it is unpopular.
The study obtained by Fox News Digital — which was required under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and conducted earlier this year by the nonpartisan Mitre Corporation — found that Americans overwhelmingly prefer commercial tax preparation software over a hypothetical Internal Revenue Service (IRS)-managed system under a series of scenarios.
"It’s alarming that the Biden IRS has not come forward and been transparent about MITRE’s independent findings, when the Inflation Reduction Act itself calls for a truly non-partisan, independent, third-party review of the feasibility, the cost to develop and operate such a system, the IRS capacity to run such a system, or taxpayer opinions on the matter," House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith, R-Mo., told Fox News Digital.
"Instead, the Administration handpicked a think tank with ties to the liberal wing of the Democrat party that has already advocated for this bureaucratic expansion," Smith continued. "Can we really trust the IRS to file Americans’ taxes for them in a fair and impartial way when it already stacks the deck towards a predetermined conclusion to gain more power?"
Just 15% of Americans filing simple tax returns prefer a government filing software over commercial alternatives, internal IRS study shows.(AP Photo/J. David Ake)
For example, the study found just 15% of Americans would use an IRS direct e-file system even if it was able to prepare state returns and provided the same functionality as a free commercial software. In that scenario, 48% preferred the current software they use and 37% would use a system in which the IRS automatically filed individuals' taxes for them.
In another scenario where state returns aren't included, just 12% of taxpayers would use the IRS direct e-file option while 60% would opt for a commercial software.
"IRS Direct File is the least favored tax preparation software, indicating filers want familiarity by staying with current software, or IRS Return-Free offering effortless filing," the study stated. "Lack of trust in the government is a key reason for those selecting current software, regardless of what the IRS can offer."

It also noted that the IRS would need to include a feature allowing taxpayers to file state returns along with federal returns to make its e-file more attractive. The study further stated that "established filers" would be hard-pressed to leave current software since it contains historical information.
"Tax filers want fast, easy and free. However, they will exchange cost over convenience showing willingness to pay for commercial service when it comes to filing federal and state returns at the same time," the Mitre Corporation study concluded.
The only scenario where a direct e-file system would be preferred, according to the study, is for the minority of Americans who file complex returns. The main reason for the disparity between the two options is the cost of commercial software for complex returns.
The study still found that some complex filing taxpayers would prefer to pay a high cost for their federal return "if it means better data security, audit protection, and solid customer service."

The IRA mandated that the IRS hire an independent third-party to analyze "the overall feasibility, approach, schedule, cost, organization design, and Internal Revenue Service capacity to deliver" a government-run direct e-file tax return system.
The IRS announced in February that it would contract New America Foundation — a left-wing think tank funded by nonprofits founded by liberal billionaires Bill Gates, George Soros, Mike Bloomberg and Eric Schmidt — to study the hypothetical system. House Ways and Means Committee Republicans blasted the IRS at the time for hiring a partisan group.
Around the same time, however, Mitre Corporation produced the study showing a direct e-file system's unpopularity. Though the IRS received the study, it chose not to release it. The study only came to light after it was shared with House Ways and Means Committee leadership this week.
"The IRS Direct File report is still in process and will be completed in the near future. A key goal of this study is to look for ways to make filing taxes as easy as possible. It’s important that Americans have choices that work best for them when preparing their taxes, whether it’s by using a tax professional, tax software or free options," the IRS told Fox News Digital in a statement.
The revelation that the IRS didn't release the study comes ahead of a House hearing during which IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel is slated to testify about his agency's "accountability and transparency." The House Ways and Means Committee hearing is scheduled for 1 p.m. on Thursday.

Many students carry out a project (internship or student research project) at an institution outside ETH.
In some cases, it is possible for students to do their project through an exchange programme. There are exchange agreements with all Swiss and many European universities, which include stays for projects.
For internships and other projects/study work outside of Switzerland, there are funding opportunities such as SEMP Europe Projects & Internships and SEMP Worldwide Projects & Internships. These are not linked to exchange agreements and all institutions (companies, research institutions, universities) are open.
Please refer students to us or to our website as early as possible so that we can clarify whether one of the programmes is an option.
The students organise the projects independently. However, all projects must be agreed with the department. The main supervision of student research projects always lies with ETH, even if they are carried out externally. Internships must be approved by the person responsible for the internship in the department (only compulsory or recommended internships).

Discussion
In our study, we found that perioperative administration of celecoxib, a selective COX-2 inhibitor, reduced postoperative VAS pain scores at rest and decreased morphine usage while providing better ROM rehabilitation results. Perioperative administration of celecoxib did not increase perioperative bleeding or blood transfusion amounts.
Coxibs are effective analgesics for post-operative pain.[20,21,22] To the best of our knowledge, the literature lacks a review of perioperative celecoxib for pain management in TKA patients. Perioperative coxibs have been shown to reduce postoperative pain and analgesic consumption while enhancing patient satisfaction.[6] In 2000, Reuben and Connelly studied perioperative use of celecoxib (200 mg) and rofecoxib (50 mg) for spinal fusion surgery.[12] They concluded that both celecoxib and rofecoxib decrease morphine consumption, but that celecoxib's effects are limited. In their follow-up study, preoperative celecoxib 400 mg showed better morphine-sparing effects than a single 200 mg preoperative dose of celecoxib.[23] Therefore, we suggest that 400 mg of celecoxib is more optimal than 200 mg in controlling acute postoperative pain.[4,6] In our study, although VAS scores were significantly improved at 48 and 72 hrs at rest, and repeated measures ANOVA test also indicated that the celecoxib group had significantly lower pain scores at rest (p = 0.023), there was no significant difference between the two groups in pain scores at ambulation. We also demonstrate that perioperative celecoxib improves postoperative ROM results. The mean knee ROM was 92 degrees in the celecoxib group and 83.8 degrees in the control group, seven days after surgery.
NSAIDs are known to decrease opioid consumption by 30-50%.[6,7,24] In our study, perioperative celecoxib significantly lowered it by 40%. However, the effects of perioperative coxibs on opioid-related side effects are still uncertain.[6] This study also showed reduced postoperative nausea and vomiting (28% vs. 43%). However, there were no differences in PONV incidence. Further evaluation, using a larger sample, is called for.
Previous studies have shown that conventional preoperative non-selective NSAIDs increase bleeding risks.[17,25] Conventional non-selective NSAIDs reversibly inhibit COX and interfere with platelet functions, while selective COX-2 inhibitors have less antiplatelet effects than conventional non-selective NSAIDs.[26,27] In this study, perioperative administration of 400 mg of celecoxib had no significant effects on blood loss, thus confirming indirectly that celecoxib has little effect on serum thromboxane or platelet functions.[16] The analgesic effects of aspirin may confuse the benefits of celecoxib, even though both groups are allowed to have aspirin in our study, and use of aspirin does not prevent the thromboembolic adverse effects of coxibs.
Selective COX-2 inhibitors may be a better choice for multimodal analgesia than conventional non-selective NSAID. Selective COX-2 inhibitors may have better gastrointestinal tolerance and less risk for cardiovascular events. It's suggested that selective COX-2 inhibitors have less gastrointestinal toxicity than conventional non-selective NSAIDs.[28,29] It's suggested that selective COX-2 inhibitors increase the risks of cardiovascular events, myocardial infarction, stroke and heart failure,[29,30] too. White et al. also demonstrated no significant increase in CV risks with celecoxib in comparison to placebo or non-selective NSAIDs.[31] Moore et al. even demonstrated that celecoxib had less gastrointestinal and cardiovascular risk than conventional non-selective NSAIDs and all other coxibs.[32] However, there might not be any difference in the coxibs and conventional non-selective NSAIDs with respect to serious vascular events.[33] Selective COX-2 inhibitors may cause less bleeding than non-selective NSAID, because coxibs do not interfere the normal mechanisms of platelet aggregation and hemostasis, whereas non-selective NSAID produces significant reductions in platelet aggregation and serum thromboxane B2.[34] It has been shown that prior exposure of non-selective NSAID such as ibuprofen in THR surgery significant increases bleeding.[10] Therefore, we suggest that selective COX-2 is optimal for multimodal analgesia.
One limitation of this study is the lack of a true placebo group. Placebo response has been observed in up to 30% of patients that undergo surgery. However, placebo usage may present ethical concerns in the postoperative care of TKA surgery; we therefore adopted an active-control trial design that compared celebrex treatment to the standard therapy (PCA morphine) at our institute. Another limitation was the limited research period. We recorded data for only the first seven days. Although we demonstrated that celecoxib had better rehabilitative results in the first week than PCA morphine, long-term efficacy is still in question. There may be many reasons for the resting VAS scores to not have reached significance until 48 hours after surgery. One possibility is that the true difference does exist and that a larger trial size is needed to draw out the difference, despite that we had shown that the trial size in our study had adequate power.
