The Sequential Intercept Model and Forensic Assertive Community Treatment (FACT) for People with Serious Mental Illness: Implications for Social Work Practice
Authors: Zampella Brian
Published: November 2023

In the United States, adults with serious mental illness are overrepresented in the criminal justice system. The sequential intercept model is a novel framework that identifies three major stages where interventions for this population can best be utilized: pretrial diversion, post-plea alternative to incarceration (ATI), and community reentry from jail and prison. This paper begins with a review of the literature that supports the application of Forensic Assertive Community Treatment (FACT) across these three stages. This paper will also draw on the influences of therapeutic jurisprudence, which holds that the courts can be used to both advance public safety and enhance access to mental health services for justice involved people with serious mental illness.

The literature has suggested that patients receiving FACT services have been found to have lower rates of psychiatric hospitalization and criminal justice recidivism in comparison to those who received traditional mental health services. This paper will touch on cutting edge practices to reduce psychiatric hospitalization and criminal justice recidivism rates among people with mental illness that are currently in use. In particular, programs involving law enforcement integration such as ACT-PI teams, co-response teams, and crisis intervention training will be explored. This paper will focus on applications and limitations of FACT across the various stages of the sequential intercept model, with a particular focus of using FACT as a way to reduce racial and gender disparities within the criminal justice system among people with serious mental illness. In light of the broad support the literature highlights for FACT when applied earlier within the criminal justice system, social work practice efforts should accordingly focus on expansion of early access to FACT services. In particular, criminal justice policy efforts should be expanded with respect to utilization of these services at the pretrial diversion and ATI stages, where they are historically underutilized.
NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF SUFFUSION BEHAVIOR UNDER CYCLIC LOADINGWITH COUPLED CFD-DEM SIMULATION
Authors: Wang Tuo , Wang Pei , Yin Zhen-Yu
Published: November 2023

Cyclic loading has a significant effect on soil properties and seriously threatens geotechnical engineering. However,
it remains unclear how cyclic loading affects the suffusion behavior in gap-graded granular soils. In this study, we
performed systematic numerical simulations of suffusion in soil samples subjected to triaxial compression coupled
with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and discrete element method (DEM) approaches, i.e., coupled CFD-DEM.
The proposed method is able to simulate the suffusion process in gap-graded soils under cyclic loading and reveal the evolution of the fluid fields. The suffusion of gap-graded soil samples was achieved by imposing a downward seepage flow. The results indicated that cyclic loading induces greater erosion mass and fluid velocity during the suffusion process compared to simulations under fixed external forces. The erosion curve can be divided into two stages. In the first stage, the particle loss rate is high, but only lasts for a very short period of time. Then, the particle loss rate slows down and enters the second stage. In this stage, compared to a non-vibrating sample, the sample subjected to cyclic loading still has a large eroded mass, which persists until the end of the simulation. The sensitivity analysis indicated that the first stage of suffusion is more sensitive to an increase in vibration amplitude, whereas the second stage is more responsive to an increase in frequency.

Authors:   Vladivostok State University, Nigay Evgeniya A.
Published: November 2023

Introduction: digital business ecosystems formation is a natural and integral process in growing digital economy. Digital transformation, as a consequence of the technologies development and complexity of the environment, inevitably causes a change in management and business models used, as well as the tools and technologies involved. The logic of business models development in the context of digitalization can be traced in the following sequence: “analog economy – traditional business models”, “transitional economy – mixed business models”, “digital economy – innovative business models and digital ecosystems”. Objectives: concept justification of a process scheme for digital business ecosystems formation, which allows building a comprehensive vision of management system approaches and decisions in the transition to digital business models and ecosystems in the context of the information society development. Methods: comparative and system analysis, processes modeling and decomposition, as well as statistical comparison methods based on a comprehensive approach to the study of digital transformation of the economy and business processes. Results: the modern approaches to structuring transition process from analog (traditional) business models to digital (innovative) ones have been summarized; business models characteristics typical of the process have been identified as well as the instruments ensuring the efficient transition. Conclusions: economic systems and business models digital transformation contributes to changing consumer behavior, increasing the efficiency of economic entities, expanding the market, building competitive advantages, and developing innovation.
“Fair balance” in the Russian regional public environmental councils
Authors:   Perm State University, Turtseva Christina P.
Published: November 2023

Introduction: advisory institutions are now called “frontier” organizations that link science, politics, and society. For public authorities, ensuring support for its positions through processes of participation and interaction with stakeholders has become as important as ensuring a deeper understanding of problems and developing solutions using scientific and professional knowledge. Accordingly, a balanced representation of experts presenting, on the one hand, specialized knowledge, and, on the other hand, the interests of stakeholders, can be vital for the potential effectiveness of such public bodies. The environmental field covers many interests, as well as technical and scientific knowledge, hence requiring a wide range of actors in making more environmentally beneficial decisions. However, due to serious disproportions in the ecological situation, various regions of the Russian Federation may show a different degree of a certain type of experts and, accordingly, the presence of “fair balance” representation. Objectives: to identify the relationship between the composition of regional advisory bodies in Russia involved in environmental activities and the regions characteristics in the environmental sphere. Methods: typology, comparative analysis. Results: a comparative analysis of the 34 regional public councils composition showed the lack of “fair balance” in most of them. The study’s key theoretical expectation that environmentally depressed regions would see more “fair-balanced” councils was not confirmed. At the same time, it was found that the industry specialization of a region can play an important role: in a region with a “dirty” industry there will be a greater bias towards experts representing the interests of stakeholders than those focused on personal professional knowledge. Conclusions: the sectoral specialization of the region can have a significant impact on the composition of regional public councils under environmental executive authorities. The chaotic representation of the two types of experts in the studied institutions confirms that there is a continuous lack of a unified approach to the requirements for candidates selection, which may indicate both a potentially different quality level of their activities and a low degree of political importance given to the environmental sphere and, consequently, a low interest from politicians and civil society to participate in such institutions.

Published: November 2023

Research background. In this study, we investigated the effects of soluble dietary fibre on improving neuromuscular and cardiovascular endurance and perception of fatigue in a closely monitored group of basketball players. Prebiotics have been sidelined in sports nutrition and their effect on performance remains poorly investigated and understood.
Experimental approach. Eighteen healthy male basketball players were divided into two groups; one received 17 g/day of soluble dietary fibre (Nutriose®) for four weeks and the other group received placebo. Their morphological characteristics, neuromuscular and cardiovascular endurance, and rating of perceived exertion according to the rating of perceived exertion (RPE) scale were assessed. Measurements were taken before supplementation and after four weeks of supplementation. Faecal samples were collected from all participants immediately before and after the supplementation period, their total DNA extracted and sent for amplicon sequencing.
Results and conclusions. In this study, fibre had no statistically significant effect on the vertical-type explosive power, no statistically significant effect on sprint-type explosive power, nor on aerobic and anaerobic endurance in the experimental group. Soluble fibre had a statistically significant effect on reducing the rating of perceived exertion of basketball players during the competitive part of the season (RPE 7.27±0.04 versus 8.82±0.81). This was confirmed by two-way ANOVA with replication, which showed that within-group interaction (p=0.0193), before and after dietary intake (p=0.0049), and between-group interaction before and after dietary intake (p=0.0313) had a significant effect on the result. The overall conclusion of the study is that soluble dietary fibre supplementation does not improve neuromuscular and cardiovascular endurance over a 4-week period. However, fibre supplementation could have a significant effect on reducing the rating of perceived exertion, as shown by the statistics. Both amplicon sequencing and subsequent bioinformatics results suggest that this could be the result of the beneficial effect on the intestinal microbiota and its metabolites.
Novelty and scientific contribution. This work highlights the importance of prebiotics in sports nutrition. Dietary fibre has been a neglected component of sports nutrition. This study demonstrated a statistically significant positive effect on the perception of fatigue, highlighting the need for further studies in this direction.

Farmers' Production Practices, Incidence and Management of Pests and Diseases, Extension Services, and Factors Limiting Cotton Production and Quality in South Africa
Authors: Malinga L.N. , Laing M.D.
Published: November 2023

Cotton is one of the essential cash crops; however, several factors, such as low yields and pest and disease infestations, affect the production. In South Africa, cotton production has increased among small-scale farmers since the late 1990s. Although the crop is not new to South African farmers, no recent information reflects the current status of cotton production practices. A study evaluated farmers' production practices, the incidence and management of pests and diseases, extension services, and factors limiting cotton production and quality in South Africa. One hundred and forty farmers, mainly smallholder farmers, were interviewed during the 2017/18 growing season. Most farmers planted genetically modified (GM) cotton on less than 5 ha of cotton, with 96% planting under dryland. Most farmers neither practised conservation agriculture (95%) nor conducted soil analyses (87%). A mean cottonseed yield of 700 kg ha-1 was reported on dryland cotton, and 5 000 kg ha-1 was obtained from irrigated cotton. Most of the farmers (99%) harvested their cotton by handpicking. Farmers' pest knowledge was higher than their knowledge of different diseases. Most participants were unaware of nematodes (88%) or disease-resistant cultivars (74%), while 91% were aware of insect-resistant cultivars. Extension officers only mentored and supported many respondents (82%). Most farmers (93%) relied on pesticides to control cotton pests, and the rest (7%) used biological control. Climatic conditions (98%), labour costs (88%), and insect infestations (42%) were identified as the main constraints in cotton production. Although this study had a limited number of surveyed farmers, it gives some insight into their knowledge and challenges.
Exploring the Challenges Faced by the Small-Scale Dairy Farmers in Bojanala Platinum District Municipality in North-West Province, South Africa

Published: November 2023

In developing countries, livestock in the form of small-scale dairy farming is often a primary source of food security and revenue for rural communities. Despite this, decreasing dairy production in rural areas is a great concern. This study explored the challenges of small-scale dairy farmers (SSDFs) in the Bojanala Platinum District of the North West Province, South Africa. A qualitative study was conducted using purposive and snowball sampling techniques among SSDFs in the district to uncover the challenges confronting them. Twenty‑four in‑depth interviews were conducted with farmers, and data were analysed using the thematic content analysis technique (TCA). Eight themes emerged from the data analysis: the high cost of feed and fertiliser, diseases and the high cost of medication, unpredictable weather patterns, power failure, high cost of electricity, cattle theft, lack of machinery and equipment and lack of support. SSDFs should be made aware and trained on identifying and managing livestock diseases, and prevention strategies for livestock theft should be developed and implemented. The study also recommends that local governments subsidise and support SSDFs to manage and sustain their businesses. Furthermore, the SSDFs should be exposed to agricultural funders in their localities, and access to educational services should be made available for local farmers to receive training towards proposal writing to apply for funds. In future, studies can look at the knowledge and literacy of farmers in sourcing funds to support their dairy farming business.

Published: November 2023

This study aims to determine the trajectory of students' thinking when solving proportion problems using STEM-based learning media. The participants were 27 fifth-grade students from SD Negeri 2 Pilangsari in Cirebon Regency. The students are divided into four groups using purposive sampling and receive the same treatment. The treatment involved a proportion study that utilized STEM media, and the student’s learning trajectory was monitored based on their problem-solving patterns. Hypothetical Learning Trajectory (HLT) was used to develop the hypotheses. The HLT was used as a guide for the researchers' assumptions. The data were collected through observation by researchers, student work, and documentation. The results of the HLT were used to test the assumptions related to the student's thinking processes and their learning in completing proportion operations using STEM. Based on the results obtained during the practice, some findings exceeded the researcher's expectations and hypotheses, but some did not. These differences become a new finding expected to become a subject for further research, where several groups have different ways of thinking based on mathematical disposition. Through STEM media, the electrical engineering students' high enthusiasm and creativity can be known through the electric graph. In conclusion, proportional relationships are an important mathematical concept with practical applications in various fields. The use of STEM media for teaching materials can help students acquire a better understanding of mathematical concepts and skills.

Authors: M Cook Sean , A Tang Vera , A Welsh Joshua
Published: November 2023

Flow cytometry (FCM) is a common extracellular particles (EPs), including viruses and extracellular vesicles (EVs), characterization method. Frameworks such as MIFlowCyt-EV exist to provide reporting guidelines for metadata, controls, anddata reporting. However, tools to optimize FCM for EP analysis in a systematic and quantitative way are lacking. Here, we demonstrate a cohesive set of methods and software tools that optimize FCM settings and facilitate cross-platform comparisons for EP studies. We introduce an automated small particle optimization (SPOT) pipeline to optimize FCM fluorescence and light scatter detector settings for EP analysis and leverage quantitative FCM (qFCM) as a tool to further enable FCM optimization of fluorophore panel selection, laser power, pulse statistics, and window extensions. Finally, we demonstrate the value of qFCM to facilitate standardized cross-platform comparisons, irrespective of instrument configuration, settings, and sensitivity in a cross-platform standardization study utilizing a commercially available EV reference material.

Authors: Rosli Saiful Azlan , Chen Ai-Hong
Published: November 2023

This study compared urban and rural referrals from a community-based eye health screening program named 'Jom Check Mata Malaysia (JCMM)'. The program was carried out in nine different states in Peninsular Malaysia—a total of 18 screening locations with a mix of urban and rural. Two mobile eye clinics were mobilised for community-based eye health screenings. This study involved 3,139 participants (1,158 and 1,981 participants from rural and urban, respectively). Visual complaints were collected via interviews using an ocular symptom checklist. The visual acuity was screened using a Snellen Chart. Ocular health screening, including anterior and posterior eye segments, was screened using slit-lamp bio-microscopy and fundus camera. Overall referrals were 2,139 (68%), 846 (27%) and 362 (12%) based on visual complaints, visual acuity and ocular health screening, respectively. Rural locations had significantly higher referral rates for visual complaint screening (χ2 = 422.53, p<0.05), visual acuity screening (χ2 = 20.20, p<0.05) as well as ocular health screening (χ2 = 64.70, p<0.05) compared to the urban locations. There was a consistent pattern of higher rural referrals for all types of vision screening. Information from our three-category screening analysis could help to design a vision screening for our rural and urban populations.

Surrogacy Contract: Legal Qualification And Individual Content Elements
Authors: Osmanova D. O.
Published: November 2023

As part of the study, the author proposed the concept of a surrogacy contract — this is an agreement that is a substantive element of the contract for the provision of a comprehensive medical service aimed at overcoming the reproductive dysfunction of the parents (customer) through non-invasive replacement of unhealthy reproductive organs of the parents (customer) with healthy reproductive organs of the reproductive donor assistance of medical support of a specialized medical institution accredited to carry out the relevant procedures. Taking into account the subject of this agreement, the position is argued that its regulation should relate exclusively to the civil law plane as a kind of contract for the provision of services for compensation. The essential conditions of such an agreement are indicated: the subject matter, the irrevocable consent of the reproductive donor to record the customer as parents, as well as the amount of monetary compensation equivalent to the temporary loss of health of the reproductive donor in connection with the fulfillment of the obligations assumed under the contract. The author points out that this method of infertility treatment is a kind of donation that has certain specific features, in particular, it does not require the removal and transfer of reproductive donor organs to persons suffering from reproductive dysfunction. This also determines the essence of the role performed by the reproductive donor — the temporary provision of a healthy reproductive system for carrying an implanted embryo.

One of the most promising approaches to cancer treatment is immunotherapy. Suppression of immune checkpoints in tumor tissue (anti-CTLA4, anti-PD1) using monoclonal antibodies has increased the overall survival of patients with some forms of skin melanoma and lung cancer. However, the percentage of patients responding to treatment varies from 20% to 40% depending on the type of cancer and the expression of target molecules by the tumor. The main source of failure of immunotherapy is the tumor microenvironment, which affects both tumor cells and immune cells, causing them to adapt to immunotherapeutic drugs. It is known that the architecture and cellular composition of the microenvironment act on various tumor parameters, promoting the recruitment of immunosuppressive cells into the tumor tissue, as well as the expression of checkpoint inhibitors, such as PD-L1, by tumor cells. Therefore, the complex composition of the tumor microenvironment must be taken into account when searching for new therapies and stratifying patients who may respond to immunotherapy. Therefore, in immunooncological studies, it is necessary to use three-dimensional cellular models that more fully reflect the architecture and cellular composition of the tumor. In this review, we evaluate three-dimensional cell models as tools for research in the field of immuno-oncology, as well as for personalized treatment selection, the search for new targets, and the optimization of existing cancer immunotherapies.

Relevance of the research is determined by the need to understand the mechanisms of interaction between groundwater, swamp and river waters in conditions of severe swampiness in the taiga zone of Western Siberia to solve a number of scientific and engineering problems both at present and in the future. The aim: quantitative assessment of changes in the levels of groundwaters during the characteristic periods of swamping of the southeast of the West Siberian Plain: 1) the beginning of an intensive spread of peat swamps with a peat deposit thickness of 0,3 m or more; 2) oligotrophization of swamps. Methods: methods of mathematical modeling, statistical methods. Results and conclusions. The author has carried out the analysis of peat deposit structure in the southern part of the Chaya river (a tributary of the Ob river) catchment area. The large-scale formation of peat swamps (with a peat thickness of 0,3 m or more) in the area under consideration occurred approximately 4 thousand years ago; the oligotrophization of the peat deposit (on a regional scale) occurred approximately 2,0…1,5 thousand years ago. In both cases, the main part of the swamps presumably could be attributed to the lowland type, but compared with the modern period in the first case their total area was 2 times less, and in the second was 1,7 times more. Taking into account these estimates, the average values of infiltration Inf and filtration coefficients Kf were determined, the ratio Inf/Kf dependence on the area of low-moor peat swamps was obtained, and groundwater levels were calculated at the present time and for periods of 1,7 and 4,1 thousand years ago. During the oligotrophization of the peat deposit (approximately 2,0...1,5 thousand years ago), with a high probability, there was a deterioration in water exchange between swamps and underground aquifers and an increase in groundwater levels. The beginning of intensive regional swamping (about 4 thousand years ago) occurred against the background of intense water-erosion processes. This results in accumulation of river alluvium accompanied by a rise in the levels of river water and then groundwater.

История развития систем управления экспериментом насчитывает порядка 25 лет – от небольших прототипов десктопных приложений до масштабируемых распределенных систем. EMS-системы становятся все более популярными, а их устройство – все более сложным. Новым этапом развития EMS-систем послужило начало «эры больших данных», чьи обработка, анализ и хранение происходят в условиях специальной экосистемы. Экосистема больших данных подразумевает наличие новых элементов, которые должны быть учтены при проектировании EMS-системы для поддержки полного жизненного цикла данных. Одним из ключевых вызовов является обобщение тех EMS-систем, которые возникали и изменялись по мере развития сопутствующих технологий, при этом на текущий момент не существует единого паттерна проектирования таких систем ввиду специфики каждого конкретного проекта, под который создается подобная система. В данной работе представлена концептуальная высокоуровневая архитектура EMS-системы как пример унифицированного паттерна, подходящего для экосистемы больших данных. Важно отметить, что предлагаемый паттерн не подразумевает работу с использованием грид-систем.

Published: November 2023

Background: Mixture experiments belong to the response surface design category, involving the combination of multiple components to create a product. These products are commonly encountered in daily life. In some cases, mixture experiments yield qualitative responses, such as taste in a fruit punch. Qualitative variables often deviate from a normal distribution. Methods: To address non-normal responses, a generalized linear model, specifically the logistic model, is employed. This study utilizes logistic models and develops suitable search algorithms to obtain saturated D-optimal designs for mixture experiments. The validation of D-optimality criteria is based on the General Equivalence Theorem. Result: For generating locally D-optimal designs, the logistic model is utilized considering non-normally distributed errors. While the procedure remains the same for other nonlinear models, the assumptions regarding error distribution impact the Fisher information matrix (FIM).
Hyperprolactinemia as a side effect of using antipsychotics In Schizophrenic Patients
Authors: Anwar Syaiful , Khairina
Published: November 2023

Introductions: Antipsychotics are still the mainstay of schizophrenia management. Antipsychotics are antagonistic to postsynaptic dopamine receptors in the brain. Blockade of dopamine receptors in the tuberoinfundibular pathway by antipsychotics will cause the side effect of hyperprolactinemia. Objectives: This review describes hyperprolactinemia induced by antipsychotic use and its clinical effects, monitoring, and management. Methods: reference search through Google Scholar with keywords schizophrenia, antipsychotics, prolactin, hyperprolactinemia, clinical effects of hyperprolactinemia, diagnosis of hyperprolactinemia, monitoring of hyperprolactinemia, management of hyperprolactinemia. Results: Clinicians need to take a diagnostic approach to identify the etiology of hyperprolactinemia, monitor the clinical symptoms of hyperprolactinemia during the administration of antipsychotics, and immediately carry out management according to existing strategies by considering some general principles and considerations. Conclusions: Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder that lasts long, requiring long-term and continuous therapy. Administration of antipsychotics is still a mainstay in the management of schizophrenia. Antipsychotics are antagonists to postsynaptic dopamine receptors in the brain. The antipsychotic effect of blocking dopamine receptors not only improves the symptoms of schizophrenia but also causes side effects. The side effect when the tuberoinfundibular dopamine pathway is blocked is an increase in prolactin levels called hyperprolactinemia.

Authors: Ridho Fiki Muhammad
Published: November 2023

Introduction: Hallucinations are one of the symptoms most often experienced by schizophrenia patients. Auditory hallucinations affect about 70% of schizophrenia patients who experience hallucinations. Classical music therapy is one of the non-pharmacological interventions that can be done. Music can be used as a non-pharmacological therapy option because it can improve, restore and maintain physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual health. Objective: This study aims to further discuss the effectiveness of classical music therapy in reducing the level of auditory hallucinations in schizophrenia patients. Methods: This study uses the literature review method by searching research data on Google Scholar database. Result: Based on the result of the data search, 8 journals were studied in this study. Discussion: The result found in 8 journals stated that classical music therapy as a non-pharmacological therapy can reduce the intensity of auditory hallucinations in schizophrenia patients. Classical music can evoke changes at the level of important neuromodulators such as dopamine, endorphins, endogenous cannabinoids and nitric oxide. So that the administration of classical music theraoy can eliminate the neurotransmitters of depression, stress, anxiety, and can suppress the symptoms of hallucinations including auditory hallucinations. Conclusion: This study concluded that classical music therapy is effective in reducing the level of auditory hallucinations in schizophrenia patients.

Currently, intensive research is underway to develop stable electrolyte systems that can significantly enhance the performance of rechargeable batteries. Recent advances in solid electrolytes have led to new types of promising systems owing to their high conductivity. This has generated considerable interest in the practical applications of safe batteries. Considering the safety concerns associated with rechargeable batteries, solid electrolytes have become indispensable for the advancement of next-generation battery technologies. However, the increased interfacial resistance at solid-solid interfaces has become a critical challenge. To address this problem, room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) have been investigated as functional materials for mitigating the interfacial resistance in solid-state batteries (SSBs). The special properties of RTILs, such as their non-volatility, non-flammability, and high safety characteristics, make them highly promising candidates for safe batteries. Various approaches have been explored for the effective utilization of ionic liquids in SSBs. This review provides a comprehensive discussion on the application of RTILs as electrolytes, considering their electrochemical properties and incorporation into composites to minimize resistance in SSBs.
