Brief Report: “I Didn't Really Have a Primary Care Provider Until I Got PrEP”: Patients' Perspectives on HIV Preexposure Prophylaxis as a Gateway to Health Care

Background: HIV prevention is the primary goal of preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP); however, ancillary benefits may exist, including PrEP as an entry point to primary care. Objective: To explore PrEP users' perspectives on how PrEP use relates to broader engagement in health care. Design: In-depth qualitative interviews. Participants: We recruited PrEP users aged 18 years or older from a social media group for people interested in PrEP information and a Boston community health center specializing in health care for sexual and gender minorities. Approach: Inductive content analysis to identify emergent themes. Key results: All 25 participants were men who have sex with men, whose mean age was 34 years, and 84% were White. Three major themes emerged: (1) accessing PrEP was a strong motivator for initial and continued engagement in health care, which for some evolved over time into accessing comprehensive primary care; (2) provider awareness and attitudes about PrEP influenced participants' ongoing engagement in health care; and (3) PrEP engendered a positive sense of control over users' personal health, giving them agency in reducing their risk of HIV and engaging in other aspects of their health. Quarterly PrEP visits helped participants establish and maintain a relationship with a primary care provider, access non–HIV-related care services, and feel empowered to keep themselves healthy. Conclusions: The benefits of PrEP extend beyond HIV prevention to broader engagement in health care, including new relationships with primary care providers and use of other preventive health care services. To maximize those benefits, efforts are needed to ensure that providers are aware, nonjudgmental, and supportive of PrEP use.

We carried out theoretical survey for studying the existence and uniqueness of the numerical schemes.
Parenting issues and attachment orientations: a comparison between Turkey and Bosnia and Herzegovina

ABSTRACT A growing body of literature links particular parenting practices with attachment orientations in the Western societies. However, the effects of cultural differences on such linkages have not been adequately addressed in the literature on attachment. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the relationship between child-rearing behaviors and adult attachment orientations in Bosnian and Turkish parents. 227 parents (124 Bosnian and 111 Turkish) aged 25-45 years were selected by multiple cluster sampling method. They filled out the following questionnaires: ‘Child Rearing Behaviors Questionnaire' and ‘Experiences in Close Relationships-Revised Questionnaire (ECRI II). ' The most interesting finding is that the attachment orientations were not a predictor of any childrearing behaviors in both countries. These results present the consequences of attachment and parenting issues in non-western societies.
Interdisciplinary Comparison of Innovation Processes – Differences, Similarities and Spillovers

Innovation processes are of tremendous importance for economic development as they transform new ideas into products and services from which society can benefit. Different industries developed and further-developed unique innovation processes optimally fitting their specific demands. However, several aspects are be relevant to other industries, too, and their imitation could enable innovation process improvements. In this paper we perform an interdisciplinary comparison of innovation processes to identify such general tendencies as well as novel aspects that could spill over to other industries’ innovation processes.
Internet Economy and Startup Business Development and Policy in Economic Law Perspectives

This study aims to analyze the development of startup business in Indonesia which is facing legal and regulatory barriers, namely legal issues, taxation, employment, intellectual property rights. By using a conceptual and empirical approach, the results showed that the fundamental legal problem faced by startup business in Indonesia is about the legality of establishing a startup business. Moreover, it relates to the legal standing of a business entity and its legal accountability. The theoretical implication of the findings underlines the startup business settings which are in need to be developed in the realm of economic law that leads to the regulation and legal thinking of ways to support the national economy. The practical implications suggest the development of startup business as a pioneering business entity in the field of commerce based on entrepreneurship and the internet economy.
Development of Executive Function in Middle Childhood: a Large-Scale, In-School, Longitudinal Investigation

This manuscript describes data collection, cleaning, and quality control procedures used in a large-scale, longitudinal, in-school study of executive function skills (EFs) and academic achievement in middle childhood, Project iLEAD (in-school Longitudinal Executive Function and Academic Achievement Database). Assessments were administered in real-world educational settings in a large sample of third through eighth grade students (ages 7 to 14; N = 1,280) over two years, with eight data collection timepoints in group settings. We assessed students with a novel, mobile EF assessment tool Adaptive Cognitive Evaluation (ACE). This battery included 11 tasks that were each designed to adapt to user performance in a trial-wise manner, allowing the same battery of tasks to be used multiple times within the same individual, and across a wide range of ages. Data quality analyses revealed that the adaptive algorithms were successful in equating challenge levels across ages 7 through 14 for 10 of 11 tasks. Data for each task were found to be approximately normally distributed and split-half reliability was acceptable across both accuracy and reaction time. ACE thus provides a reliable way to assess EFs in middle childhood using the same tasks while maintaining appropriate challenge level without facing ceiling or floor effects.
High aqueous salinity does not preclude germination of invasive
 Iris pseudacorus
 from estuarine populations

Estuarine ecosystems are threatened by climate change and biological invasions. Among global changes, sea-level rise is broadly impacting tidal wetlands, through increases in salinity and alteration of inundation regimes. Extant freshwater plant species are often presumed to be limited to reaches of estuaries with low salinity and narrow tidal ranges. However, the potential for invasive freshwater species (e.g., Iris pseudacorus ) to persist and spread with increased salinity and ﬂ ooding is poorly understood and can jeopardize native biodiversity and other wetland ecosystem services. The successful establishment of invasive plants will be dependent on their tolerance to salinity and inundation, starting with the germination life stage. Changes to abiotic estuarine gradients may alter the germination process of tidal wetland plant species that underlies signi ﬁ cant patterns of plant community composition and biodiversity. We explored germination responses of seeds from two invasive I. pseudacorus populations from freshwater and brackish tidal sites in California ’ s San Francisco Bay – Delta Estuary. We tested germination dynamics under salinity levels ranging from freshwater to seawater (0, 12.5, 25, and 45 dS/m) and two hydrological conditions (moist and ﬂ ooded). Salinity levels > 12.5 dS/m inhibited germination of seeds from both populations, consistent with viviparism and seedling emergence recorded at ﬁ eld sites. However, seeds exposed to seawater for 55 d germinated once exposed to freshwater. Germination velocity and seed buoyancy dif-fered between populations, likely due to differences in seed coat thickness. Our results demonstrate that after 55 d in seawater, buoyant seeds of I. pseudacorus retain their ability to germinate, and germinate quickly with freshwater exposure. This suggests that invasive populations of I. pseudacorus can colonize new sites following potentially long-distance dispersal of buoyant seeds with tidal currents. These ﬁ ndings inform risk assessments and highlight the need to prioritize the management of invasive I. pseudacorus in estuarine ecosystems impacted by rising sea level.
An Umbrella Review of the Literature on Perinatal Domestic Violence: Prevalence, Risk Factors, Possible Outcomes and Interventions

Perinatal domestic violence (P-DV) is a common form of violence experienced by women and is associated with adverse impacts on their own physical and mental health and that of their offspring. Illuminating the risk factors for, potential effects of, and promising interventions to reduce P-DV is essential for informing policies to tackle P-DV and mitigate its negative impacts. This umbrella review of recent high-quality systematic reviews and meta-analyses of worldwide research on P-DV provides a systematic synthesis of current knowledge relating to the prevalence, risk factors for, possible outcomes of and interventions to reduce and prevent P-DV. 13 reviews identified through systematic searches of computerised databases, manual search and expert consultation met our inclusion criteria (i.e. English systematic reviews and/or meta-analyses that were from recent 10 years, focused on women exposed to P-DV, assessed risk factors, possible outcomes and/or interventions, and were of fair to high methodological quality). Our results suggest that while there is a growing understanding of risk factors and possible outcomes of P-DV, this knowledge has thus far not been translated well into effective interventions. P-DV intervention programmes that have been subject to rigorous evaluation are mostly relatively narrow in scope and could benefit from targeting a wider range of maternal and child wellbeing outcomes, and perpetrator, relationship and community risk factors. The overall quality of the evidence syntheses in this field is reasonable; however, future studies should involve multiple reviewers at all key stages of systematic reviews and meta-analyses to help enhance reliability.
COAL FLOTATION IN THE PRESENCE OF POLYMERIC FLOCCULANTS

Abstract Batch flotation studies at 7% solids concentration of four coal samples in the presence of various polyacrylamide flocculants have been performed and the effects of ionic character, concentration and age of the polymers on recovery and ashes of the flotation products are reported. Changes in values of the flotation efficiency index are used to monitor these effects. Contact angle measurements on carefully prepared anthracite are measured as function of pH, inorganic electrolyte, polyelectrolyte and flotation oil concentrations to examine the ability of the polymers to render the coal surface hydrophilic. Hallimond tube microflotation recoveries are shown to follow the contact angle trends very closely.

Nonlinear sensorless speed tracking control for PMSM with unmodeled electromotive forces

In this paper, a sensorless speed tracking control scheme is proposed for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) with unmodeled electromotive forces. Specifically, one observer is developed to estimate the angular velocity of PMSM and the estimated value is injected into a novel nonlinear feedback controller. The unmodeled electromotive forces are not estimated. The influences of the unmodeled electromotive forces on the speed tracking performance are overcome by constructing corresponding nonlinear damping terms in the controller. Under certain assumptions, the rigorous proof of the stability of the closed‐loop system is completed with Lyapunov theory. All the dynamic signals are bounded. Furthermore, the estimation error and the tracking error can converge to an arbitrarily small value by choosing the control parameters appropriately large. Finally, the simulation results of constant and time‐vary speed tracking illustrated the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

L’interface de la représentation, représentations de l’interface

Cet article vise à montrer l’importance de l’interface dans la compréhension de la relation entre numérique et représentation. L’interface remet en cause toute idée de présence au profit de la représentation, dans la mesure où elle est un opérateur de médiation. Or parce que le numérique est de nature formel, il nécessite l’usage de représentations, comme le sont les interfaces, pour accéder au sens. Cependant, parce que la représentation de l’interface est aussi de nature culturelle, alors elle provoque à son tour des effets sur les représentations de l’homme en les façonnant. Enfin, le caractère représentatif de l'interface est à son tour façonné par la culture humaine sous forme de figures qui façonnent à leur tour nos relations au numérique.
Lanskap Arkeologi Situs Gosari-Gresik dalam Perspektif Prosesual dan Pasca-Prosesual

Dalam tulisan ini Situs Gosari-Gresik dikategorikan sebagai salah satu artefak arkeologis Nusantara yang memberikan informasi terkait masa silam. Situs tersebut dipahami sebagai representasi dari perspektif Prosesual dan Pasca-Prosesual. Ruang lingkup tulisan ini menyajikan lanskap Situs Gosari sebagai representasi dari paradigma prosesual dan pasca-prosesual. Kontradiksi kedua paradigma di atas disinergikan untuk mengetahui lanskap Situs Gosari yang terdiri dari bekas tungku pembakaran gerabah, sendang, dan prasasti. Dalam hal itu paradigma pertama menjelaskan tarikh atau usia situs, jenis atau model gerabah yang dihasilkan; korelasi antarunsur arkeologi; dan peranan atau industri gerabah pada masa Majapahit. Sedangkan paradigma kedua digunakan untuk melengkapi analisis yang tidak dapat dijangkau paradigma sebelumnya, terutama terkait interpretasi terhadap sendang dalam pandangan masyarakat setempat berdasarkan tradisi lisan/folklor yang diyakini. Dari kedua paradigma tersebut dihasilkan kesimpulan bahwa kedudukan sendang memiliki peranan penting, baik dalam industri gerabah maupun kehidupan masyarakat sekitar. Selain itu, diketahui bahwa tinggalan budaya tak bendawi masa klasik tersebut masih dipelihara.
Comparison and Analysis of Sub-optimal performance of OFDM/SDMA uplink System that use Conventional Multiuser Detection Techniques

The major challenge in the practical accomplishment of OFDM/SDMA system depends on the efficient implemen- tation of a multiuser detection (MUD) technique that separates the spatially multiplexed signal streams. Several algorithms for MIMO detection for spatially-multiplexed signals have been developed till today. The MIMO MUDs that are mostly used in previous research works and practically used are minimum mean squared error (MMSE), decorrelator (ZF), Vertical-Bell laboratories layered space-time (V-BLAST), successive inter- ference cancellation (SIC) and maximum likelihood detection (MLD). MMSE and ZF are linear MIMO detection techniques, while the remaining procedures are non linear techniques. All MUD techniques in general can be explained as a solution to a quadratic optimization problem in most cases. In this work, basic principles of ZF, MMSE, ZF-OSIC, MMSE-OSIC and ML have been explained briefly and a comparison of their performances have been done. Although the detection techniques evolved so far are matured in theory, their implementation in a real-time scenario is still challenging. It is analyzed in this paper that the poor BER results of sub-optimal detection method in comparison to MLD is due to bad channel effects.

BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY INTO STEEL INDUSTRY CURRENT STATE OF FOREIGN PAYMENT ACTIVITY

The purpose of the article is to analyze the current state of foreign trade in the industrial blockchain of the steel industry, the existing digital platform has gradually formed a large-scale heterogeneous distributed environment. The problems of further development of the metallurgical complex of Ukraine in the world electronic system of international cooperation are determined. Methodology. The survey is based on a blockchain technology is an interlinked systematic chain of blocks that contains transaction history and other user data. It works under the principle of decentralized distributed digital ledger. Results. Experimental tests prove that production companies, logistics, international payments and consumers can participate in the information certification of steel products via the modern information system. Consumers can understand the real product manufacturing process, effectively avoiding of the incomplete information and low transparency in the traditional information traceability process, and effectively trace the quality of steel products. The system provides an effective payments scheme for promoting the transformation and upgrading of the modern technology steel industry. Practical implications. In view of the low transparency of information traceability of current steel products and the defects of information islands, in this article the blockchain-based steel smart contract payment technology quality traceability system is developed and adopted the alliance chain mode and the new digital blockchain platform. The article describes the use of smart payment technology in a full-fledged financial transaction as a transfer funds in cryptocurrency to electronic bank accounts, as well as the transfer of commercial information, including contracts. To do this, the assets and terms of the contract are encoded and placed in the block chain, then the contract is distributed is saved on a set of network nodes and is executed after the condition is triggered. The fulfillment of the obligations of the parties is checked automatically. It is worth noting that the fact that smart contracts only react to transactions. If the asset or the currency is transferred to the program, it starts monitor compliance with the terms of the contract. How as soon as they are fulfilled, the seller receives money, and the buyer is a shipment goods. Value/originality. Blockchain technologies enable the use of business information systems that are highly resistant to technical failures and malicious attacks. Costs and time of carrying out business operations are significant.
Effects of Seasonal and Agronomical Practices on Skin Anthocyanin Profile of Nebbiolo Grapes

The influence of season and 50% cluster thinning (CT) and 50% leaf removal (LR) on skin anthocyanin profile was studied in cv. Nebbiolo in the Barbaresco wine production area (northwestern Italy). Climatic conditions over two years strongly interacted with treatments: 2000 was hot and rainy; 2001 was cooler and very dry. The leaf area/yield ratio value was higher in 2000 in response to good water availability, and it was optimal only in 2000 LR vines and in 2001 CT vines, which displayed the highest total soluble solid content at harvest. In comparison with control vines, anthocyanin concentration increased only in 2000 CT vines, even if final concentration was not significantly higher, because of its reduction before harvest. The 2001 drought reduced vine vegetative development, sugar production (−8.3%), and total anthocyanin concentration (−20.7%) in respect to 2000. Individual anthocyanin concentration varied as a consequence of chemical structure, canopy management practices, and seasonal climatic conditions. Thus, the peonidin-3-glucoside/malvidin-3-glucoside ratio varied on average from 1.9 in 2000 to 1.2 in 2001, and it was higher in treated vines than in control vines. Anthocyanin accumulation can be divided into two distinct phases: an initial phase of rapid increase influenced primarily by vine vegetative conditions and secondarily by cultural practices and a second “finishing” phase during which climatic conditions played a fundamental role. 3′-Substituted anthocyanin biosynthesis is likely more strongly influenced by climatic conditions and cultural practices than is 3′,5′-substituted anthocyanin biosynthesis.
A large-scale comparison of cross-situational word learning models

One problem language learners face is extracting word meanings from scenes with many possible referents. Despite the ambiguity of individual situations, a large body of empirical work shows that people are able to learn cross-situationally when a word occurs in different situations. Many computational models of cross-situational word learning have been proposed, yet there is little consensus on the main mechanisms supporting learning, in part due to the profusion of disparate studies and models, and lack of systematic model comparisons across a wide range of studies. This study compares the performance of several extant models on a dataset of 44 experimental conditions and a total of 1,696 participants. Using cross-validation, we fit multiple models representing theories of both associative learning and hypothesis-testing theories of word learning, find two best-fitting models, and discuss issues of model and mechanism identifiability. Finally, we test the models’ ability to generalize to additional experiments, including developmental data.
