Abstract
Baby clothing, which is in direct contact with the skin, used for babies from birth to 36 months of age, is one of the factors that can increase the risk of diseases such as skin irritation or rashes on the skin due to the clothing material. Formaldehyde is a chemical allergen that can cause skin inflammation due to contact with a substance that triggers an allergic reaction on the skin. Therefore, it is important to test the levels of formaldehyde in baby clothing using UV-Vis spectroscopes in accordance with SNI ISO 14184-1:2015 to assess the safety of baby clothes prior to marketing. SNI ISO 14184-1:2015 is a standard method for determining the amount of formaldehyde in textiles. The Spektrofotometer (Spectrophotometer) method, which uses Spectrophotometry UV-Vis, is a commonly used instrumental method. The test results show that samples of baby clothing with a KN code contain 22.42 mg/kg of formalde, exceeding the safe limit of 16mg/kg according to the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) 14184.1:2015. Thus, samples of baby clothes with KN code are not safe to market.

Divine Love in Persian Mystical Poetry of Šams al-Dīn Zākī
Authors: Saitbattalov Iskander R. ,   Ufa University of Science and Technology
Published: July 2024

The paper deals with the ideas of divine love contained in two previously unpublished and unexplored poems by the Bashkir poet and scholar Šams al-Dīn Zākī (1822–1865) in Persian. By comparing his text with the works that were part of his reading outlook, as well as the key texts of the Naqshbandiyya-Mujaddidiyya order, a connection is established between the ideas of the Sufi poet and the idea of “essential love” formulated by the Indian mystic of the 17th century Aḥmad Sirhindī. This love is not an ecstatic state, but a path of constant self-improvement with the goal of displacing from the mystic’s soul any aspirations and desires other than complete acceptance of the divine will. In Zākī’s poem, love takes on an ethical dimension. The result of its manifestation is the truthfulness of the mystic — the correspondence of external and internal in his behavior and motivation. The verbal expression of these ideas is based on a vast corpus of classical works of Persian literature from the 11th to 13th centuries, with Farīd al-Dīn ‘Aṭṭār and Jalāl al-Dīn Rūmī being the two most frequently cited authors.

Flood risk assessment using Neutrosophic Analytical Hierarchy Process (N-AHP) and GIS techniques in the Melet Basin (Türkiye)
Authors: Fıçıcı Murat
Published: July 2024

Today, knowing the spatial distribution of flood risk using GIS (Geographic Information Systems)-based MCDM (Multi-Criteria Decision Making) approaches has been a topic addressed by many researchers. In this context, the current study focuses on the spatial distribution of flood risk using the N-AHP (Neutrosophic Analytical Hierarchy Process)-based GIS approach. The Melet Basin (Türkiye) is a case study for the suggested methodology. Four decision-makers used linguistic phrases to compare and assess the flood criteria during the method's application phase. The opinions of the decision makers were combined with the N-AHP, and the criteria were weighted. The results determined that precipitation, distance from the river, drainage density, land use, and slope were the most important factors affecting the flood and contributed approximately 74%. Apart from this, it has been observed that 10% of the basin is in the high and very high flood risk classes, and these risky areas overlap with the flood points of past periods. The proposed approach and findings are anticipated to have theoretical and practical implications.
GraphicsAssist: Visual Artist’s Assistant for Narration-to-Illustrative Graphic Composition
Authors: Dawn Suma ,   Dept. of CSE & IT, Jaypee Institute of Information Technology, A-10, Sec-62, Noida-201309, India.
Published: July 2024

Storytelling is an art that very few can carry with ease, putting in proper context the feelings and emotions of the characters, their setting, interactions, etc. This work attempts to recreate storytelling to form a graphic illustration for users so that the essence of the story is not lost in transference from one person to another, from storyteller to graphic illustration reader/user. ‘GraphicsAssist’ is an artist assistance system for graphic artists to help them generate certain options for usage as graphic frames. Text analysis has been exploited to understand contextual requirements or storytelling. Natural language-based learning has been applied to this requirement. The transfer-learning-based model is used to find suitable matches for the characters and visual environment settings. Illustrative drawings and their tags are considered a part of the frame database. Once the narration entities of the story are extracted, they are matched with the drawing tags and presented to the designer for framing and then panelling of graphic illustration. The chosen frames are displayed in panels in grid format. In its current form, manipulation of the selected drawings for the task of forming frames is, as yet, restricted. The aesthetic transition from frame to frame is yet lacking and may be integrated into later works. The work of this artist’s assistance system is validated by the test group, which gave feedback on some pre-defined parameters. Though the system has its drawbacks, it is the first step towards such a system that provides a computational translation model for translating a textual narration to a set of visual composition frames. This work aims to capture the nuances, characters, emotions, story setting, etc., from textual narration as an input of the story and convert it to the graphic illustration in 2D form by incorporating illustrative drawings as its visual translation.
Clinician-Prioritized Measures to Use in a Remote Concussion Assessment: Delphi Study
Authors: Barnes Keely , Sveistrup Heidi , Bayley Mark , Egan Mary , Bilodeau Martin , Rathbone Michel , Taljaard Monica , Marshall Shawn
Published: July 2024

Background

There is little guidance available, and no uniform assessment battery is used in either in-person or remote evaluations of people who are experiencing persistent physical symptoms post concussion. Selecting the most appropriate measures for both in-person and remote physical assessments is challenging because of the lack of expert consensus and guidance.

Objective

This study used expert consensus processes to identify clinical measures currently used to assess 5 physical domains affected by concussion (neurological examination, cervical spine, vestibular, oculomotor, or effort) and determine the feasibility of applying the identified measures virtually.

Methods

The Delphi approach was used. In the first round, experienced clinicians were surveyed regarding using measures in concussion assessment. In the second round, clinicians reviewed information regarding the psychometric properties of all measures identified in the first round by at least 15% (9/58) of participants. In the second round, experts rank-ordered the measures from most relevant to least relevant based on their clinical experience and documented psychometric properties. A working group of 4 expert clinicians then determined the feasibility of virtually administering the final set of measures.

Results

In total, 59 clinicians completed survey round 1 listing all measures they used to assess the physical domains affected by a concussion. The frequency counts of the 146 different measures identified were determined. Further, 33 clinicians completed the second-round survey and rank-ordered 22 measures that met the 15% cutoff criterion retained from round 1. Measures ranked first were coordination, range of motion, vestibular ocular motor screening, and smooth pursuits. These measures were feasible to administer virtually by the working group members; however, modifications for remote administration were recommended, such as adjusting the measurement method.

Conclusions

Clinicians ranked assessment of coordination (finger-to-nose test and rapid alternating movement test), cervical spine range of motion, vestibular ocular motor screening, and smooth pursuits as the most relevant measures under their respective domains. Based on expert opinion, these clinical measures are considered feasible to administer for concussion physical examinations in the remote context, with modifications; however, the psychometric properties have yet to be explored.

Public Perceptions of the Food and Drug Administration's Regulatory Authority Over Synthetic Nicotine on Twitter: Observational Study
Authors: Zou Jonathan , Feliciano Juan Ramon , Xie Zidian , Li Dongmei
Published: July 2024

Background

The Omnibus Budget Bill, known as H. R. 2471, passed through Congress on March 10, 2022, and was eventually signed by President Biden on March 15, 2022. This bill amended the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act granting the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulatory authority over synthetic nicotine.

Objective

This study aims to examine the public perceptions of the Omnibus Bill that regulates synthetic nicotine products as tobacco products on Twitter (rebranded as X).

Methods

Through the X streaming application programming interface, we collected and identified 964 tweets related to the Omnibus Bill on synthetic nicotine between March 8, 2022, and April 13, 2022. The longitudinal trend was used to examine the discussions related to the bill over time. An inductive method was used for the content analysis of related tweets. By hand-coding 200 randomly selected tweets by 2 human coders respectively with high interrater reliability, the codebook was developed for relevance, major topics, and attitude to the bill, which was used to single-code the rest of the tweets.

Results

Between March 8, 2022, and April 13, 2022, we identified 964 tweets related to the Omnibus Bill regulating synthetic nicotine. Our longitudinal trend analysis showed a spike in the number of tweets related to the bill during the immediate period following the bill’s introduction, with roughly half of the tweets identified being posted between March 8 and 11, 2022. A majority of the tweets (497/964, 51.56%) had a negative sentiment toward the bill, while a much smaller percentage of tweets (164/964, 17.01%) had a positive sentiment toward the bill. Around 31.43% (303/964) of all tweets were categorized as objective news or questions about the bill. The most popular topic for opposing the bill was users believing that this bill would lead users back to smoking (145/497, 29.18%), followed by negative implications for small vape businesses (122/497, 24.55%) and government or FDA mistrust (94/497, 18.91%). The most popular topic for supporting the bill was that this bill would take a dangerous tobacco product targeted at teens off the market (94/164, 57.32%).

Conclusions

We observed a more negative sentiment toward the bill on X, largely due to users believing it would lead users back to smoking and negatively impact small vape businesses. This study provides insight into public perceptions and discussions of this bill on X and adds valuable information for future regulations on alternative nicotine products.
The Automatic Context Measurement Tool (ACMT) to Compile Participant-Specific Built and Social Environment Measures for Health Research: Development and Usability Study
Authors: Zhou Weipeng , Youngbloom Amy , Ren Xinyang , Saelens Brian E , Mooney Sean D , Mooney Stephen J
Published: July 2024

Background

The environment shapes health behaviors and outcomes. Studies exploring this influence have been limited to research groups with the geographic information systems expertise required to develop built and social environment measures (eg, groups that include a researcher with geographic information system expertise).

Objective

The goal of this study was to develop an open-source, user-friendly, and privacy-preserving tool for conveniently linking built, social, and natural environmental variables to study participant addresses.

Methods

We built the automatic context measurement tool (ACMT). The ACMT comprises two components: (1) a geocoder, which identifies a latitude and longitude given an address (currently limited to the United States), and (2) a context measure assembler, which computes measures from publicly available data sources linked to a latitude and longitude. ACMT users access both of these components using an RStudio/RShiny-based web interface that is hosted within a Docker container, which runs on a local computer and keeps user data stored in local to protect sensitive data. We illustrate ACMT with 2 use cases: one comparing population density patterns within several major US cities, and one identifying correlates of cannabis licensure status in Washington State.

Results

In the population density analysis, we created a line plot showing the population density (x-axis) in relation to distance from the center of the city (y-axis, using city hall location as a proxy) for Seattle, Los Angeles, Chicago, New York City, Nashville, Houston, and Boston with the distances being 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, and 5000 m. We found the population density tended to decrease as distance from city hall increased except for Nashville and Houston, 2 cities that are notably more sprawling than the others. New York City had a significantly higher population density than the others. We also observed that Los Angeles and Seattle had similarly low population densities within up to 2500 m of City Hall. In the cannabis licensure status analysis, we gathered neighborhood measures such as age, sex, commute time, and education. We found the strongest predictive characteristic of cannabis license approval to be the count of female children aged 5 to 9 years and the proportion of females aged 62 to 64 years who were not in the labor force. However, after accounting for Bonferroni error correction, none of the measures were significantly associated with cannabis retail license approval status.

Conclusions

The ACMT can be used to compile environmental measures to study the influence of environmental context on population health. The portable and flexible nature of ACMT makes it optimal for neighborhood study research seeking to attribute environmental data to specific locations within the United States.

Authors: Kisvarday Susannah , Yan Adam , Yarahuan Julia , Kats Daniel J , Ray Mondira , Kim Eugene , Hong Peter , Spector Jacob , Bickel Jonathan , Parsons Chase , Rabbani Naveed , Hron Jonathan D
Published: July 2024

Background

The public launch of OpenAI’s ChatGPT platform generated immediate interest in the use of large language models (LLMs). Health care institutions are now grappling with establishing policies and guidelines for the use of these technologies, yet little is known about how health care providers view LLMs in medical settings. Moreover, there are no studies assessing how pediatric providers are adopting these readily accessible tools.

Objective

The aim of this study was to determine how pediatric providers are currently using LLMs in their work as well as their interest in using a Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)–compliant version of ChatGPT in the future.

Methods

A survey instrument consisting of structured and unstructured questions was iteratively developed by a team of informaticians from various pediatric specialties. The survey was sent via Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) to all Boston Children’s Hospital pediatric providers. Participation was voluntary and uncompensated, and all survey responses were anonymous. 

Results

Surveys were completed by 390 pediatric providers. Approximately 50% (197/390) of respondents had used an LLM; of these, almost 75% (142/197) were already using an LLM for nonclinical work and 27% (52/195) for clinical work. Providers detailed the various ways they are currently using an LLM in their clinical and nonclinical work. Only 29% (n=105) of 362 respondents indicated that ChatGPT should be used for patient care in its present state; however, 73.8% (273/368) reported they would use a HIPAA-compliant version of ChatGPT if one were available. Providers’ proposed future uses of LLMs in health care are described.

Conclusions

Despite significant concerns and barriers to LLM use in health care, pediatric providers are already using LLMs at work. This study will give policy makers needed information about how providers are using LLMs clinically.
Deep Learning Approach to Detect Fake Video on Raspberry PI
Authors: K Sanjay S , K Supriya G , M Sachidanand , G Harshitha , G Prof. Akshatha B
Published: July 2024

Abstract: This project proposes a deep learning-based approach for real-time detection of fake videos on a resource-constrained device, specifically the Raspberry Pi. The solution combines the power of computer vision and recurrent neural networks to discern manipulated content from authentic videos effectively. The methodology involves using a pre-trained ResNeXt model for feature extraction, capturing spatial information from each video frame. These features are then fed into a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network, allowing the model to understand and exploit temporal dependencies within the sequence of frames. The LSTM network learns patterns and nuances indicative of authentic or manipulated video content. The training process involves a carefully curated dataset containing both real and fake videos. The model is fine-tuned to optimize its performance, and metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score are employed for evaluation. To accommodate the constraints of the Raspberry Pi, the model is further optimized through techniques such as quantization, ensuring a balance between model size and inference accuracy. The final model is deployed on the Raspberry Pi, with a user-friendly interface capturing video frames in real-time. The system provides instantaneous feedback, indicating whether the observed video content is genuine or manipulated. This project contributes to the growing field of deepfake detection while addressing the challenges of implementing sophisticated models on edge devices. The combination of ResNeXt and LSTM offers a robust solution for discerning manipulated videos, making it suitable for real-world applications where computational resources are limited.

Abstract: This study investigates the impact of international wind loading regulations on tall buildings by analyzing major codes from the United States (ASCE 7), Australia (AS/NZS 1170.2), Canada (NBC), and India (IS 875). The research reveals significant differences in the estimation of wind loads, attributed to variations in exposure categories, wind speed profiles, and calculation methodologies. Notably, the gust loading factor is commonly used across these standards. The parameters used to estimate wind loads by the international standards are also discussed. The findings underscore the necessity for global wind load limitations and emphasize the importance of considering local factors to ensure the structural safety and integrity of tall buildings under varying wind conditions.

Authors: Dursun Doğukan
Published: July 2024

Bu çalışmada, yenilikçi bozuk düzen transpoze icrada karşılaşılan problemeler ve bu problemlere yönelik çözüm önerileri sunulmuştur. Ayrıca, Türk Halk Müziğinin en önemli ve en çok kullanılan çalgılarından biri olan bağlamanın Dede Korkut’tan günümüze gelene kadar tarihsel süreç içerisinde uğradığı değişimler irdelenmiştir. Kopuzdan bağlamaya kadar gelen süreçte bağlamanın uğradığı yapısal değişimle birlikte isminde olan değişiklik arasında bir bağlantı kurulmaya çalışılmıştır. Bağlama ismini almasında kesin bir yargıya varılmamasıyla birlikte farklı görüşlere ulaşılmaktadır. Farklı bölgelerde farklı boyutlarda kişisel istek ve deneyimlerine göre oluşan fiziksel yapısı ve icra boyutuyla kullanılan bağlamalar, bağlama ailesini oluşturmaktadır. Anadolu’nun farklı yörelerinde farklı düzenler icra edilmektedir. Tercih edilen akort düzenine göre pozisyon ve konumlandırmalar belirlenmektedir. Bununla birlikte birçok düzende farklı icra çeşitliliği geleneksel Türk Halk Müziğinin zenginliği ortaya çıkarmaktadır. Düzenlerde farklı konumlandırmanın bağlamada transpoze icra mantığıyla örtüştüğüne ve olumlu aktarım yapılmasına yardımcı olacağı görüşüne değinilmiştir. Transpoze gerçekleştirilirken belirlenen karar perdesi üzerinden düşünüldüğünde perde dizilimi müsaade ettiği sürece transpoze icra gerçekleştirilebilmektedir. Bu probleme yönelik olarak, perde diziliminin müsaade etmediği kararlarda, ilave perdeler eklenerek bu probleme yönelik çözüm önerisi sunulmuştur. Temelde transpoze icranın, bağlamanın farklı müzik türlerindeki icralarda kullanılmasıyla birlikte oluşan ihtiyaçtan kaynaklı ortaya çıktığı düşünülmektedir. Oluşan icranın geleneksel icradan farklı yenilikçi icra şeklinde sunulduğu ve bu tür icraların farklı çalım tekniğini geliştiren farklı repertuvarlar kazandıran geleneksel icranın dışında çalım tekniğini geliştirdiği söylenebilir. Birçok bağlama düzeninde icra yapılırken konumlandırma mantığının oluşmasıyla olumlu aktarım yaparak tek akortta bağlamanın perde dizilimlerini sağlayan ve ilave perdelerle dizilimi sağlamasına yardımcı olan öneriler sunularak bağlamanın icrasında pozisyon zenginliğiyle çalım tekniğinin geliştirilmesine katkı sunacağı düşünülmektedir.
Birth at Home – At Home With Birth
Authors: James Susan
Published: July 2024

In Canada, homebirth and midwifery seem to be inseparable. Prior to regulation, women wanting homebirths sought midwives and women wanting midwifery care often gave birth at home. Choice of birthplace, including the option of homebirth became a central tenet of regulated midwifery across the country. In this paper, the experience of homebirth is explored. Women and midwives from four provinces, both before and after midwifery regulation, spoke of their experiences of homebirth. Using hermeneutic phenomenological analysis, themes related to experiences of time, space, relationships and embodiment were identified. While some of the women's stories include comparisons of their births at homeandhospital,theobjectiveistouncoverwhatitisliketogivebirthathome notwhatisbetterorsafer or more challenging than other birthplace choices.
With Woman in Perinatal Loss
Authors: Spencer Lynlee
Published: July 2024

This paper explores how women experience perinatal loss, and how midwives can be supportive under these circumstances. It examines both the features of perinatal loss that unite women into a subculture of bereaved mothers, as well as some sociocultural issues, such as poverty, that can compound their grief. It also addresses the limited professional training that midwives receive in this area, and offers suggestions for how to better prepare them.
Becoming and Being a Midwife: A Theoretical Analysis of Why Midwives Leave the Profession
Authors: Cameron Carol
Published: July 2024

Since the introduction of the Ontario Midwifery Education Program in 1993, the attrition rate of midwives early (< six years) in their careers has been on the rise. The study aimed to develop an understanding of the reasons why graduate midwives leave the profession. Semi-structured, in-depth interviews were conducted with nine former midwives, all graduates of the Ontario Midwifery Education Program. Interview transcripts were analyzed inductively, using the principles of grounded theory to identify conceptual categories, category properties and recurring themes. Key findings were validated by verification with participants. Three key categories emerged: 1) Becoming, 2) Being, and 3) Loss of Self. The implications of the findings of this study are useful to target areas which require more attention in order to reduce the loss of midwives in the province.

The debate between professional groups in Canada about the advisability of planned home birth continues. The Canadian Birth Place Study examines Canadian registered midwives', family physicians', and obstetricians' experiences with and attitudes towards planned home birth, as well as factors associated with in those attitudes. Evidence based strategies were applied to the development, validity testing, and implementation of a cross-sectional questionnaire to a multi-disciplinary sample of maternity care providers.The survey questions and attitude scale items were adapted from a previously validated questionnaire and reviewed by two discipline-specific expert panels. Experts provided qualitative comments and rated each socio-demographic and attitude item on three 4-point Likert-type scales to evaluate importance, clarity, and relevance. Aggregated scores (content validity indices) demonstrated strong content validity of items. The questionnaire construction and administration plan incorporated best practices for increasing response rates among healthcare providers, as well as participation from multiple perspectives on a controversial topic across study populations.

Objectives: To determine pre-university students’ attitudes and beliefs about childbirth and identify key sources of information and knowledge.Methods: A survey of 359 Quebec pre-university students (215 female, 144 male) was undertaken to identify sources of beliefs about birth and opinions about types of maternity care providers and place/method of delivery. Results: Prime sources for birth beliefs were family (50.7% female, 39.9% male) and media (21.9% female, 33.6% male). The dominant preferred birth model was hospital vaginal delivery attended by an obstetrician. The students’ birth preferences reflected strong support for professional supervision/intervention and skepticism about the safety of home birth and out-of-hospital birth centres. Although 9.3% of female students and no males would choose elective cesarean section (CS) for themselves or partner, 71.2% of female students and 42.4% of male students agreed that CS is “just another way of having a baby.” Most female students believed “it is a woman’s right to choose CS for herself ” and had a higher preference/acceptance of CS, compared with male students. Students characterized birth as “painful” and “miraculous” and agreed on its relative safety. Female students were more fearful and more stressed about the prospect of birth, compared with male students. Over 75% of female students were aware of the benefits of breastfeeding and planned to breastfeed.
Conclusions: Most students supported in-hospital maternity care and perceived CS as normal but did not express a preference for CS for themselves or their partners. Students were unaware of the risks/benefits of CS, epidurals, and out-of-hospital birth. These findings highlight the need for health care professionals to engage young adults and to provide them with evidence-based information about maternity care options.
Midwives Responding to the Needs of Uninsured Clients: Old Order and New Immigrant Women in Midwifery Care
Authors: Bennett Nicole , Burton Nadya
Published: July 2024

The funding structure of midwifery in Ontario enables midwives to provide care to women without provincial health care coverage. This article explores midwives’ experiences in providing care to two key groups of women without provincial insurance: 1) women who lack coverage as a result of their precarious immigration status, and 2) women who opt out of publicly funded health insurance for religious reasons. Data from 15 interviews with midwives who serve these communities reveal several important themes that shape their experiences. Further, as midwives adapt their practice to work with communities of uninsured women, their goal of providing culturally competent midwifery care to more diverse groups of women becomes actualized.
