A Different Approach to the Evaluation of Smart Cities’ Indicators
Authors: Skvarciany Viktorija , Jurevičienė Daiva , Žitkienė Rima , Lapinskaitė Indrė , Dudė Ugnė
Published: November 2021

The article aims to propose a different approach to assessing smart cities which combines some commonly used indicators with several new ones in line with the concept of sustainability. The aspect of sustainable development as an essential driver for the smart city and the combination of indicators for sustainable and smart city concepts have been analysed fragmentarily so far. There are many different approaches to evaluate the indicators of city smartness; however, very little attention is paid to the analysis of the reciprocal importance of the indicators. Ten indicators representing a smart city were selected that would be keep in line all the three pillars of sustainability—environmental, social, and economic. An expert survey was conducted to assign the weights of indicators using the pairwise comparison approach. The results were processed by utilising the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (AHP), which reduces the subjectivity in the experts’ answers. The presented approach differs from the ones commonly used and while it does not cover a wide range of usual indicators, it proposes some new ideas for further research. Some represent cities to attract young and intelligent citizens, others relate to comfortable and safe living conditions and the environmental situation. The results revealed that the most vital smartness indicators are foreign direct investments, pollutant emission, and the share of people registered as unemployed among the working-age population. These indicators cannot be easily identified as ones representing a smart city, but rather as indicators representing investment and environmental, sustainable aspects. Hence, finding a balance between the indicators related to sustainable and smart city is what highlights the need for further research.

Published: November 2021

Projects suspensions are between the most insistent tasks confronted by the construction field accredited to the sector’s difficulty and its essential delay risk foundations’ interdependence. Machine learning provides a perfect group of techniques, which can attack those complex systems. The study aimed to recognize and progress a wellorganized predictive data tool to examine and learn from delay sources depend on preceding data of construction projects by using decision trees and naïve Bayesian classification algorithms. An intensive review of available data has been conducted to explore the real reasons and causes of construction project delays. The results show that the postponement of delay of interim payments is at the forefront of delay factors caused by the employer’s decision. Even the least one is to leave the job site caused by the contractor’s second part of the contract, the repeated unjustified stopping of the work at the site, without permission or notice from the client’s representatives. The developed model was applied to about 97 projects and used as a prediction model. The decision tree model shows higher accuracy in the prediction.

Published: November 2021

The significant growth in traffic density in Slovakia, combined with the country’s economic change, has resulted in new environmental noise issues, particularly in road traffic noise. The objective of this study was to assess and evaluate the impact of environmental noise on the psychosocial well-being of young healthy individuals in the two main Slovak cities of Bratislava and Kosice. To assess noise annoyance, interference with activities, and sleep disturbance, the ICBEN (The International Commission on the Biological Effects of Noise) anonymous validated “Noise annoyance questionnaire” was applied; noise levels were objectified by direct measurements using a sound level analyzer with a frequency analysis module. Young individuals between the ages of 20 and 30 were interviewed in Bratislava (533 respondents, 155 males) and Kosice (355 respondents, 111 males). The majority of the respondents in both cities were exposed to medium levels of road traffic noise LAeq
≥ 60 dB. In Bratislava, 27.82 % of respondents resided in the higher noise exposure category LAeq
≥ 70 dB, while in Kosice, 39.9 % resided in the lower noise exposure category LAeq
< 50 dB. Road traffic noise annoys respondents in the higher noise exposure category in Bratislava 63.51 %, and even in the lower noise exposure category in Kosice, it interferes with reading and mental work, sleep and falling asleep 46.51 %. The study has identified traffic noise as an environmental issue in large cities, emphasizing the need for vulnerable individuals to be protected, particularly at night.

Published: November 2021

Introduction. Postpartum depression (post-natal depression, pure postpartum depression, PPD) is one of three types of post-natal mood disorders. The degree (severity) of this disorder may be defined as moderate or severe. A milder form of depression is postpartum sadness (baby blues), while the untreated depression can develop into a very severe form of depression called postpartum psychosis

Aim. The aim of the work was to analyse the incidence and severity of postpartum depression symptoms in women in the first year after giving birth, evaluated by the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale, and the social support received and expected by them.

Material and methods. This paper presents the severity of depressive symptoms in 150 women measured by the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale in the first year after their giving birth as well as the support received by them and the demand for it.

Results. More than half of the women filling in the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale achieved a result indicating a high risk of postpartum depression (more than 12 points). The severity of postpartum depression symptoms depended on the place of residence of women, was related to attendance antenatal classes, breastfeeding and the support received.

Conclusions. It would be advisable to initially assess the risk of postpartum depression in women immediately after childbirth and the social support available to them.

Authors: Sorongan Erick , Musfirah K. Nurul , Sari Danar Retno , Lesmideyarti Dwi
Published: November 2021

Pengabdian kepada masyarakat kali ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan kebiasaan masyarakat dalam berperilaku hidup sehat melalui gerakan cuci tangan. Kegiatan ini sebagai salah satu upaya dalam mencegah penyebaran Covid-19 yang banyak menular melalui kontak fisik tangan. Masyarakat perlu menyadari bahwa dengan membiasakan diri cuci tangan sebelum dan sesudah beraktivitas akan tetap menjaga mereka dari penularan virus Covid-19.

Metode yang dilakukan adalah melalui pembuatan wastafel potabel yang nantinya akan didesain secara hemat dan praktis namun tetap memperhatikan sisi higienitasnya. Wastafel akan didistribusikan ke wilayah yang masuk dalam zona merah. Selain itu metode yang dilakukan adalah dengan membuat poster atau selebaran cara mudah menghindari virus Covid-19 dan membagikan masker kepada warga Balikpapan.

Program ini dilaksanakan dengan harapan bisa membantu Pemerintah Kota Balikpapan untuk menurunkan angka penyebaran Covid-19. Tim PKM bermitra dengan UPTD Wilayah II Pasar Pandan Sari dalam menentukan lokasi atau titik yang membutuhkan wastafel portable dengan pertimbangan utama memiliki resiko penyebaran tinggi karena adanya tingkat interaksi masyarakat. Melalui kegiatan PKM ini setidaknya bisa dimulai dari langkah sederhana untuk membiasakan masyarakat mencuci tangan dengan sabun. Penyebaran yang terus bertambah membuat masyarakat saat ini melakukan aktivitas dari rumah namun masih ada masyarakat yang beraktivitas di luar rumah. Sasaran utama kegiatan PKM ini adalah untuk mengantisipasi penyebaran yang berdampak langsung ke masyarakat yang melakukan aktivitas diluar rumah. Hasil utama dari kegiatan PKM ini adalah berupa produk tempat cuci tangan bagi warga yang berada di Pasar Pandasari. Hasil tambahan berupa masker dan pamphlet dibagikan kepada warga kota Balikpapan.

Manfaat yang dapat diperoleh peserta dari kegiatan pengabdian pada masyarakat ini antara lain dapat meningkatkan pemahaman ibu sekaligus merubah kebiasaan ibu menjadi kebiasaan yang sehat untuk mencegah penyebaran penyakit, serta meningkatkan peran serta aktif ibu untuk memantau kehamilannya secara mandiri di rumah selama pembatasan sosial
Movimientos sociales. Una reflexión teórica sobre las irrupciones sociales hasta 2019 en México y en Chile
Authors: González González Jaime , Ramírez Sánchez Rubén Darío , Chávez Jiménez Daniar
Published: November 2021

Este ensayo ofrece una reflexión teórica sobre el concepto de movimiento social desde los casos de México y Chile. La pregunta directriz interroga sobre las semejanzas de los movimientos sociales recientes en estos países. Frente a esto, se sugiere como hipótesis que existen similitudes del objeto en ambos casos, observables en: 1) el contexto de crisis de legitimidad del orden establecido, y 2) el manejo medial a través de redes digitales por parte de los movimientos para manifestar sus causas. Se concluye que existen semejanzas en los movimientos sociales de los casos contemplados, vinculadas a la presencia de una cultura cosmopolita operando en las prácticas de los individuos participantes en las movilizaciones. En este sentido, el análisis matiza la condición subalterna del objeto, considerando el papel de agentes urbanos, cosmopolitas e instruidos participando en la orientación cultural/identitaria de los movimientos. En un contexto de crisis de legitimidad en los estilos de hacer política, la opinión de agentes de alta escolaridad en plataformas digitales genera una ventana de oportunidad para el cambio en la configuración de las instituciones.

Published: November 2021

Introdução: Um evento homicida com a presença de várias vítimas pode ser definido como um assassinato múltiplo, porém esse termo refere-se a uma categoria mais ampla que compreende as subclassificações: assassinato em massa, assassinato em série e assassinato  relâmpago. Objetivo: Revisar as definições desses termos, abordando os aspectos psiquiátricos que podem estar presentes em cada um dos tipos de homicídio múltiplo, buscando atualizar a classe médica e os demais profissionais que trabalham com essa temática e instrumentalizar suas ações de investigação, avaliação e tratamento. Método:  Revisão narrativa visando discutir o estado da arte e atualização do conhecimento sobre assassinato múltiplo. Discussão: A literatura aponta que assassinato em massa, assassinato em série e assassinato relâmpago possuem características específicas, que vão além do número de vítimas e compreendem as características psicopatológicas de seus perpetradores, desde a ausência de qualquer transtorno psiquiátrico até quadros de transtornos antissociais, narcisistas ou psicóticos. Conclusão: O conhecimento de suas definições e particularidades possibilita o uso adequado dos termos, assim como auxilia o raciocínio diagnóstico acerca dos transtornos psiquiátricos que podem estar presentes nos criminosos que cometem tais atos.
Legal framework for Azerbaijan – EU cooperation in the energy sector
Authors: Abdullayev Nazim Nizami
Published: November 2021

This article is dedicated to the analysis of legal framework of Azerbaijan – EU relations in the energy sector. The relevance of this topic in recent months is substantiated by change in geopolitical realities of the South Caucasus Region, and discussions on unblocking economic and transport communications that intensified after the Second Nagorno-Karabakh Conflict. The region is an interlink between Asia and Europe; and Azerbaijan, being an exporter of oil and natural gas, is an important energy partner of the European Union. The flip of political situation in the region in the nearest future would change not only the energy relations between the countries of the region, but also EU and EAEU members-states. The subject of this research is the bilateral agreements, memoranda and joint declarations adopted by the parties in 30 years since reestablishment of the independence of Azerbaijan. Special attention is given to the vectors of cooperation of the parties both pertaining to extraction and transit of energy resources from South Caucasus and Central Asia. The author employs general dialectical, logical, historical, descriptive, formal-legal approach methods of research methods to determine the key trends and characteristics of the legal framework of Azerbaijan – EU relations in the energy sector. The scientific novelty of lies in the analysis of normative legal framework of cooperation in the energy sector beyond the context of general political and economic relations, as well as in outlining the peculiarities of legal framework of such cooperation. The conclusion is made that the cooperation between the two parties in the energy sector leans on the framework rather than binding legal agreement, which allows both parties to develop relations in the energy sector as mutually beneficial projects based on the market principles.

Authors: Núñez de Arenas-Arroyo Sergio , Cavero-Redondo Iván , Torres-Costoso Ana , Reina-Gutiérrez Sara , Álvarez-Bueno Celia , Martínez-Vizcaíno Vicente
Published: November 2021

Objectives

We aimed (1) to estimate the short-term effect (postintervention period) of neurodynamic techniques on pain, symptom severity, functional status, electrophysiological status, grip strength, and pinch strength in people with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS); and (2) to estimate the effect of neurodynamic techniques compared to other physical therapy modalities and surgical interventions.

Design

Intervention systematic review with meta-analysis.

Literature Search

We searched the MEDLINE, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Web of Science, Physiotherapy Evidence Database, and Scopus databases from their inception to September 2020.

Study Selection Criteria

We included randomized controlled trials reporting the effect of neurodynamic techniques on pain, symptom severity, function, distal motor latency, grip strength, and pinch strength in people with CTS.

Data Synthesis

Using the DerSimonian-Laird method, we estimated pooled standardized mean differences (SMDs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). We used the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach to judge the certainty of the evidence of each pairwise comparison.

Results

There were 22 trials included (n = 1203 people with CTS; mean age, 26.0 to 57.9 years; mean symptom duration, 4.1 to 62.8 months). There was very low–certainty evidence of neurodynamic techniques improving pain (SMD, −0.54; 95% CI: −0.95, −0.13) and function (SMD, −0.35; 95% CI: −0.61, −0.09). There was no significant effect on symptom severity (very low certainty), distal motor latency (very low certainty), and grip and pinch strength (low certainty).

Conclusion

Neurodynamic techniques were effective for improving pain and function in people with CTS, albeit with very low–certainty evidence. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2021;51(12):566–580. Epub 16 Nov 2021.doi:10.2519/jospt.2021.10533
Walking, Cycling, and Swimming for Nonspecific Low Back Pain: A Systematic Review With Meta-analysis
Authors: Pocovi Natasha C. , de Campos Tarcisio F. , Christine Lin Chung-Wei , Merom Dafna , Tiedemann Anne , Hancock Mark J.
Published: November 2021

Objective

To investigate the effectiveness of walking/running, cycling, or swimming for treating or preventing nonspecific low back pain (LBP).

Design

Intervention systematic review.

Literature Search

Five databases were searched to April 2021.

Study Selection Criteria

Randomized controlled trials evaluating walking/running, cycling, or swimming to treat or prevent LBP were included.

Data Synthesis

We calculated standardized mean differences (SMDs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Certainty of evidence was evaluated with the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach.

Results

No trials assessed LBP prevention or addressed acute LBP. Nineteen trials (2362 participants) assessed treatment of chronic/recurrent LBP. Low-certainty evidence suggests that walking/running was less effective than alternate interventions in reducing pain in the short term (8 trials; SMD, 0.81; 95% CI: 0.28, 1.34) and medium term (5 trials; SMD, 0.80; 95% CI: 0.10, 1.49). High-certainty evidence suggests that walking/running was less effective than alternate interventions at reducing disability in the short term (8 trials; SMD, 0.22; 95% CI: 0.06, 0.38) and medium term (4 trials; SMD, 0.28; 95% CI: 0.05, 0.51). There was high-certainty evidence of a small effect in favor of walking/running compared to minimal/no intervention for reducing pain in the short term (10 trials; SMD, −0.23; 95% CI: −0.35, −0.10) and medium term (6 trials; SMD, −0.26; 95% CI: −0.40, −0.13) and disability in the short term (7 trials; SMD, −0.19; 95% CI: −0.33, −0.06). Scarcity of trials meant few conclusions could be drawn regarding cycling and swimming.

Conclusion

Although less effective than alternate interventions, walking/running was slightly more effective than minimal/no intervention for treating chronic/recurrent LBP. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2022;52(2):85–99. Epub 16 Nov 2021. doi:10.2519/jospt.2022.10612
Exercise Descriptors That Determine Muscle Strength Gains Are Missing From Reported Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Rehabilitation Programs: A Scoping Review of 117 Exercises in 41 Studies
Authors: Vlok Arnold , van Dyk Nicol , Coetzee Derik , Grindem Hege
Published: November 2021

Objective

To (1) describe which strength training exercise descriptors are reported in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) rehabilitation research, and (2) compare the current standards of reporting ACLR strength training exercise descriptors to international best-practice strength training guidelines.

Design

Scoping review.

Literature Search

We searched the MEDLINE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, SPORTDiscus, Academic Search, ERIC, Health Source: Nursing, Health Source: Consumer, MasterFILE, and Africa-Wide Information databases.

Study Selection Criteria

We included level I to IV studies of ACLR rehabilitation programs with 1 or more reported strength training exercise descriptors. We used a predefined list of 19 exercise descriptors, based on the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) exercise recommendations, the Consensus on Exercise Reporting Template (CERT), and the Toigo and Boutellier exercise descriptor framework.

Data Synthesis

Completeness and the standard of reporting exercise descriptors in ACLR rehabilitation programs were assessed by means of international best-practice strength training standards.

Results

We extracted data on 117 exercises from 41 studies. A median of 7 of the 19 possible exercise descriptors were reported (range, 3–16). Reporting of specific exercise descriptors varied across studies, from 95% (name of the strength training exercise) to 5% (exercise aim, exercise order). On average, 46%, 35%, and 43% of the exercise descriptors included in the ACSM, CERT, and Toigo and Boutellier guidelines were reported, respectively.

Conclusion

Key exercise descriptors for muscle strength gains are not reported in studies on ACLR rehabilitation. Only the exercise name, number of exercises, frequency, and experimental period were reported in most of the studies. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2022;52(2):100–112.

A função dos hábitos no pensamento reflexivo, segundo John Dewey [The function of habits in the reflective thought, following John Dewey]
Authors: Matos José Claudio Morelli
Published: November 2021

John Dewey, em sua teoria do conhecimento, atribui um papel fundamental aos processos de pensamento reflexivo. Além disso, descreve o comportamento humano em termos de hábitos integrados, que se manifestam na conduta. Este trabalho espera mostrar que, segundo uma visão naturalista do ser humano e de suas capacidades cognitivas, os próprios processos mais sofisticados de pensamento e reflexão são concebidos como efeitos de hábitos instalados nos indivíduos. Como tais, possuem sua origem, em parte, nas capacidades e disposições inatas, desenvolvidas ao longo da evolução, e em parte nos processos de aprendizagem que ocorrem nas interações ambientais e sociais. Essa teoria naturalista do conhecimento, que relaciona pensamento reflexivo com hábitos é o resultado da argumentação de Dewey em defesa de uma filosofia que rompe com a tradição abstrata e especulativa, em direção a uma filosofia que confira o maior sentido possível ao conhecimento resultante da experiência, e da relação complexa entre organismo e natureza.

Søren Kierkegaard: por uma filosofia da existência
Authors: De Oliveira André Luiz Holanda
Published: November 2021

A filosofia de Søren Kierkegaard é acentuadamente marcada pela concretude da existência. Esta jamais é vista como um conceito a ser incluído num sistema, emergindo, em seus elementos fundamentais, do âmbito da interioridade, onde se encontra a paixão ideal que está a serviço de um valor absoluto. É, portanto, na existência, que Kierkegaard identifica o locus irrenunciável da verdadeira reflexão filosófica. Fora desta dimensão o homem não conquista sua autenticidade, pois é só aqui que o homem se compreende como dependente de sua relação com o Absoluto, tomando consciência do sentido último de sua vida. A existência humana enquanto concretude e liberdade; resiste à dissolução do indivíduo e é, acima e tudo, existência do indivíduo singular perante o Absoluto na dimensão da paradoxalidade da fé.
Reflexões acerca da Bioética: um estudo de caso empírico
Authors: Do Nascimento Ermano Rodrigues
Published: November 2021

O presente texto faz uma reflexão acerca da educação e da saúde no Nordeste brasileiro à luz da bioética, considerando essenciais as políticas públicas em prol da sociedade civil, mas também, priorizando a formação intelectual e moral dos profissionais de saúde como Agente Comunitário de Saúde (ACS) e o Enfermeiro. Neste contexto o olhar da Bioética nos leva a analisar se os procedimentos e as aplicabilidades das políticas públicas pelos gestores públicos condizem com a realidade do povo nordestino. Constatamos que falta muito caminho a percorrer e que tudo depende de vontade política em direcionar o bem público à população de forma igualitário e/ou equitativa para se consegui qualidade de vida com justiça e dignidade humana. Para tanto, se faz jus respeitar a vontade popular quanto aos seus direitos e deveres na formação de uma consciência crítica cidadã e democrática na promoção do ser humano.
Epistemologia Reformada e a Racionalidade da crença teísta
Authors: Uchôa Bruno Henrique
Published: November 2021

Este ensaio tem o intuito de fazer uma incursão histórica-panorâmica no desenvolvimento da filosofia da religião e como, a partir daí, se originou a Epistemologia Religiosa, mais especificamente, a Epistemologia Reformada. Trataremos do desafio verificacionista/falsificacionista contra a crença teísta e as respostas que tal desafio proporcionou. Por questões de limitação e de importância, mostraremos o desenvolvimento das respostas de Alvin Plantinga ao desafio, como elas desencadearam reelaborações posteriores e como, a partir do próprio Plantinga, a crítica a tais reelaborações fez surgir o movimento da Epistemologia Reformada. Tal tendência se revela na defesa de que a crença em Deus é apropriadamente básica. Veremos, por fim, as razões que Plantinga dá para chegar a tal conclusão.
Ciencia y política. Los límites inmanentes de la expertise securitaria
Authors: Seghezzo Gabriela
Published: November 2021

La estructuración actual de la inseguridad y el lugar que se le asigna en ella a una modalidad particular de producción de conocimiento forman parte de una problemática cuyo examen puede ayudarnos a delinear algunos de los retos y desafíos que la presente situación plantea a las disciplinas sociales. Para ello, en primer lugar, abordaremos cómo se configura hoy el discurso académico securitario y su afinidad electiva con una matriz cognitiva experta. En segundo lugar, serán puestos en discusión algunos elementos que caracterizan al conocimiento experto, recuperando los aportes de Giles Deleuze en torno a la lógica de la resolubilidad. Luego, plantearemos el tipo de subjetividad que configura la expertise como matriz cognitiva. Finalmente, procuraremos identificar los límites que presenta la estructuración de una modalidad de conocimiento experta. Cabe aclarar que, en esta oportunidad, aun cuando se haga mención a debates regionales, limitaremos nuestras referencias a los posicionamientos en Argentina, dado que, en los límites del presente texto sería imposible contemplar el conjunto de interlocutores que una discusión más amplia impondría.

Regarding to Philosophy, under a general view, the concept, concerning Representation, has been, since a long time, understood as a trail which one would get througl reaching to the real and true ones. Representation, as the thought contents expression form had not been known departing from Philosophy as a barrier against the objectivity concerning the knowledge.

Desconstruir a corrupção: o papel do Legislador, príncipe e soberano. A análise do caso no pensamento de Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Authors: Eurípedes Martins Adriano Medeiros
Published: November 2021

There is no state without subjects. For Rousseau state-building requires the direct participation of citizens. The active participation of citizens will result in the expression of the general will. It is the general will that via social pact, give life and unity to the state. The state is a political body design. The active participation of citizens in order to prevent corruption and dissolution of the company refers to the conception of popular sovereignty. In this mode of sovereignty, citizens would be able to build and maintain the foundations of civil society. Rousseau, as a contractualist, thinks his time and political solutions to the real problems of his time. So it is this scenario between theory and practice, which Rousseau will start to set up the distinction and the relationship of this important tripod: Sovereign, Legislator and Prince.

Objetivo: Revisar evidências atuais acerca da aplicação e dos benefícios da Eletroconvulsoterapia (ECT) em pacientes com transtorno afetivo bipolar. Revisão bibliográfica: Os mecanismos de ação da ECT no tratamento da bipolaridade não são totalmente elucidados e essa prática é comumente desacreditada pela própria comunidade médica, gerando descrenças quanto a sua efetividade e segurança. Todavia, há fortes correlações com o uso da terapia e a melhora significativa dos sintomas depressivos, maníacos e de estados mistos no transtorno bipolar. A taxa de resposta é, no geral, igualmente eficaz, ou superior à mediação habitual, variando conforme grupos específicos ou complexidade do quadro. A ECT é capaz, também, de reduzir a ocorrência de oscilações de humor, sendo eficaz, também, como terapia de manutenção. Uma maior resposta demonstra estar atrelada a diversos fatores, como maior velocidade da onda da ECT, posicionamento unilateral de eletrodos e idade avançada. Considerações finais: Apesar dos efeitos benéficos, a ECT não está isenta de colaterais. Mais estudos devem ser propostos para elaboração de diretrizes mais assertivas sobre o tema.
Ex vivo performance evaluation of a transdermal gold injectable microneedle for tyrosinase sensing
Authors: Darvishi Sorour , Girault Hubert
Published: November 2021

Here, the semi-invasive direct electrochemical detection of melanoma biomarkers in non-treated skin has been envisaged. The enzyme tyrosinase (TYR) was to be addressed with a microneedle electrochemical sensor. The microneedles were fabricated by polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) casting with stable polymers. The as-prepared microneedles (MNs) were then coated by gold sputtering. The gold MNs were finally covered by alginate/catechol to provide a liquid electrolyte layer that contained electroactive species, such as catechol, whose redox state can be linked to the concentration of TYR in the skin. The sensor showed high sensitivity of 7.52 µA·mg–1·mL TYR in dummy skin. A relative standard deviation (RSD) of 8.54 % (n=5) demonstrated that the Catechol@alginate: gold MN electrode had excellent reproducibility for continuous glucose detection. Also, five parallel Catechol@alginate: gold MN electrodes were fabricated using the same experimental setup and showed an RSD of 3.95 % (n=5). These results suggest that the electrode fabrication process was reproducible, and Catechol@alginate: gold MN biosensors demonstrated high stability for the repetitive detection of TYR. Furthermore, the sensor has high selectivity in the presence of interfering components towards TYR screening.
Multigram Scale Total Synthesis of Piperarborenines C-E
Authors: Lenihan Jason , Mailloux Matthew , Beeler Aaron
Published: November 2021

We report the development of a multigram scale total synthesis of heterodimeric β-truxinic imides piperarborenines C-E using a catechol-mediated diastereoselective intramolecular [2+2] photocycloaddition. Key innovations lie in the use of (1) catechol as a highly selective auxiliary for the robust and scalable synthesis of homo- and heterodimeric β-truxinates, (2) UV LEDs for direct excitation in the [2+2] cycloaddition step, and (3) a bis pentafluorophenyl ester and LDA for the challenging installation of the syn dihydropyridinone imides. This approach is exceptionally scalable – requiring minimal chromatography, no photocatalysts, and no cryogenic conditions - and will enable thorough evaluation of the biological properties and anticancer profiles of piperaborenines C-E and derivatives thereof.

Establish Crowdsourcing as an Organisational Business Process: A Design Science Approach
Authors:   , Nguyen Thuan
Published: November 2021

Crowdsourcing can be an efficient organisational strategy to harness innovation and agility by distributing work to Internet users. As crowdsourcing is different from other business strategies, organisations are often unsure about how to structure crowdsourcing as a business process. We identify two challenges: first, crowdsourcing has been perceived as a one-off endeavour and a comprehensive repeatable crowdsourcing process has not been defined yet. Second, while organisations need a solid knowledge base in order to integrate crowdsourcing with their business processes, the domain knowledge remains unstructured, scattered, and sometimes conflicting. Together, these challenges indicate that crowdsourcing needs to evolve from an immature form towards a more repeatable business process.  The research adopts the design science paradigm and follows four research stages. We first synthesise existing knowledge in the domain, which identifies twelve repeatable building blocks of crowdsourcing processes. Second, we define a model of business process crowdsourcing (BPC). The model has seven processes organised in three stages: decision to crowdsource, process design, and technical configuration. The model was empirically evaluated using two existing crowdsourcing projects. The results suggest the usefulness of the model for structuring crowdsourcing processes.  Third, we turn the BPC model into a heavyweight ontology that consolidates the domain knowledge. The ontology captures the following domain concepts: business processes, activities, data entities, data attributes, and their hierarchical relationships. It also captures decision-making relationships. We evaluated the ontology by triangulation. The findings are that the ontology provides a high coverage and clarity of the domain.  Finally, based on the ontology, a decision tool is developed. The tool provides advice to make informed decisions about BPC establishment. Using experiments and focus groups to evaluate the tool, the quantitative and qualitative results confirm its utility and show that the tool improves decision-making performance.  The dissertation contributes to the body of knowledge in several ways. It promotes and conceptualises crowdsourcing as an organisational business process. It offers a process model, ontology, and decision tool for BPC. It also provides empirical results about the use of the decision tool. By doing so, we hope that the dissertation will motivate organisations to further assimilate crowdsourcing.
Closing the gap : enhancing Parliament's law-making role in Treaty of Waitangi and customary rights issues
Authors:   , Mason Janet
Published: November 2021

The New Zealand system of government subscribes to the doctrine of the supremacy of Parliament. This means that where Parliament have, in legislation, explicitly and clearly stipulated an intention to be arbitrary, unfair or oppressive, the judicial branch of government cannot strike that legislative provision down. Instead, the Courts law-making role is confined to interpreting and developing case law where there is no applicable statutory rule.
Facilitating Policy: Redeﬁning Terraced Housing in Malaysia
Authors:   , Bala Kumar Suraj Khumar
Published: November 2021

The multi-ethnic tension among the three main ethnics in Malaysia has a great impact on tolerance and political unity. The Bumiputera Policy gives privileges to the Malay ethnicity, which further strains this issue, dividing the nation. Recognising this, the government introduced the 1Malaysia Policy as a possible solution to mitigate this issue to promote equality and attaining unity in diversity. This ultimate purpose is to integrate Malaysians to cooperate in a mutually respectful manner, towards the development of Malaysia.  The inevitable consequences of short sighted government policy, development and westernisation in Malaysia have negatively aﬀected the cultural uniqueness of the three main ethnic communities. In domestic architecture, terraced houses have been a direct translation of western terraced housing. The inﬂuences from the West have diverted Malaysia’s sense of Asian culture. The objective of this study is to support the aims of this current 1Malaysia Policy, by ﬁnding a solution to terraced housing, through the design of the 1Malaysia Home.  This thesis looks at an adaptable home for multi-cultural families to live and practise their unique cultures in a multi-ethnic community. The implementation of this design, is through research on case studies of the respective traditional houses of Malaysia’s three main ethnic groups. The main design consideration of this ﬂexible home is through a negotiated spatial organisation, in regards to the aims of the theories that informed the traditional houses.  This study further explores the cluster design of terraced housing in a multi-ethnic neighbourhood community. The traditional programmes of shop house and other multi-cultural activities in Malaysia are reinstated for a common sense of belonging in the neighbourhood, which ultimately preserves Malaysia’s unique Asian culture and supports its international branding as ‘Malaysia Truly Asia’.
