Published: May 2021

The object of research is hypoeutectic cast iron intended for cast parts operating under abrasive friction conditions. Such parts are mixer blades, the operational properties of which include durability, assessed by abrasion resistance and strength. To give the blades such properties, cast irons, which are materials of the blades, are alloyed with elements that contribute to the formation of carbides of various compositions. The main problem that impedes the targeted selection of materials for mixer blades or finished blades from different materials or different chemical composition is the lack of substantiated selection criteria. If the shipment is carried out only with the provision of data on the chemical composition of the alloy, it is necessary to be able to evaluate the expected mechanical properties, in particular abrasion resistance and strength.

Using the methods of regression analysis, a mathematical model has been obtained that includes two regression equations, which allows for a targeted selection of the chemical composition that provides the maximum possible value of mechanical properties – ultimate strength and coefficient of wear resistance. Optimization of the chemical composition, carried out according to this model, made it possible to determine the following chemical composition: C=2.94 %, Ceq=3.3 %, Ti=1.56 %, providing the maximum ultimate strength σb=391 MPa; C=2.78 %, Ceq=3.14 %, Ti=1.61 %, providing a maximum wear resistance coefficient Kwr=12 %.

In the case of priority of the strength criterion, the calculated optimal chemical composition makes it possible to reduce the mass-dimensional characteristics of the mixing units of the mixers.

A procedure is proposed for using this model to select a batch of blades with the expected best performance properties

Published: May 2021

The COVID-19 outbreak has had a severe impact on nearly all industries, including Islamic banking, which plays a significant role but is exposed to higher risk. This study aims to evaluate the credit risk that Islamic banks in Indonesia have been exposed to related to home financing before and during the COVID-19 outbreak. Panel data are employed covering the period January 2016 to September 2020 on a monthly basis. The data were analyzed using a dynamic panel approach to present a distinct picture of Sharia-compliant property financing before and during the COVID-19 outbreak. In general, the findings show that the macroeconomic variable reflected by regional inflation has had a different influence in the two periods, with Islamic banks having had much more exposure to macroeconomic risk, specifically in home financing, during the epidemic. In addition, the different influences are also shown by the study results, which show that provinces on Java Island face less risk exposure than those outside Java. In terms of impulse response factors and variance decompositions’ result, before the outbreak, the response of home financing risk to inflation tended to be more stable. However, during the outbreak, the movement has tended to fluctuate more, especially outside Java Island. The same result for variance decompositions shows a similar trend, with inflation tending to have a larger impact during the outbreak.

A hybrid wavelet-Lyapunov exponent model for river water quality forecast
Authors: Jiang Jiping , Tang Sijie , Liu Rentao , Sivakumar Bellie , Wu Xiaoye , Pang Tianrui
Published: May 2021

The use of spectral theory and chaos theory on river water quality modeling is reported in a very limited way. This study proposes a wavelet-maximum Lyapunov exponent (WMLE) hybrid model for river water quality dynamics, combining spectral theory and chaos theory. The methodology involves the following major steps: (1) use of wavelet transformation to filter the noisy signal in the water quality time series; (2) reconstruction of phase space to embed the water quality time series and determine the trajectory of the underlying dynamics; and (3) identification of the presence/absence of chaos and prediction using the largest Lyapunov exponent value. Case studies on the Huaihe River in China and the Potomac River in the United States, as representatives of low-frequency and high-frequency forecast, show average relative errors on weekly dissolved oxygen (DO), chemical oxygen demand (COD), and ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N) data are 2.35%, 4.53%, and 18.85%, and on 15-minute based DO data are 1.185%. It also indicates that the hybrid model performs better to some extent when compared to the purely Lyapunov exponent model, ARMA model, and ANN model. This study is a proof that the combination of spectral theory and chaos theory is promising to describe and predict fluctuation of particular water quality indicators in rivers.
Gene Therapy as the New Frontier for Sickle Cell Disease
Authors: Garg Himanshu , Tatiossian Kristina J. , Peppel Karsten , Kato Gregory J. , Herzog Eva
Published: May 2021

:

Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is one of the most common monogenic disorders caused by a point mutation in the β-globin gene. This mutation results in polymerization of hemoglobin (Hb) under reduced oxygenation conditions, causing rigid sickle-shaped RBCs and hemolytic anemia. This clearly defined fundamental molecular mechanism makes SCD a prototypical target for precision therapy. Both the mutant β-globin protein and its down-stream pathophysiology are pharmacological targets of intensive research. SCD also is a disease well-suited for biological interventions like gene therapy. Recent advances in hem-atopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation and gene therapy platforms, like Lentiviral vec-tors and gene editing strategies, expand the potentially curative options for patients with SCD. This review discusses the recent advances in precision therapy for SCD and the pre-clinical and clinical advances in autologous HSC gene therapy for SCD.

Biopolymer-Based Schiff Base Ligands
Authors: Vadivel T. , Dhamodaran M. , Kavitha S.
Published: May 2021

Aims:

To achieve catalytic performance for the oxidation of alcohols using
Ruthenium(III) metal complexes as a catalyst.

Background:

Chitosan is a potential candidate, which enables the synthesis of transition metal
complexes from its corresponding bidentate ligands.

Objective:

The chemical modification was performed on a chitosan molecule with suitable
aldehydes.

Method:

The oxidation of alcohols was performed using ruthenium metal complexes as a catalyst
with pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) as an oxidant and dichloromethane as a solvent. To a
solution of alcohol (2 mmol) and dichloromethane (25 mmol), pyridinium chlorochromate (3
mmol), and ruthenium(III) complexes (0.01 mmol) were added. The solution was stirred for 12 h at
room temperature. At the required time, the aldehyde/ketone was extracted with n-hexane. The nhexane
was then analyzed by GC.

Results:

The ruthenium(III) complexes derived from modified chitosan Schiff bidentate ligands have
resulted in good catalytic performance for the oxidation of alcohols under optimized conditions.

Conclusion:

The enhanced catalytic activities of ruthenium(III) complexes were due to the
presence of electron-donating groups in the Schiff base ligand.
Patient Rationales Against the Use of Patient-Accessible Electronic Health Records: Qualitative Study
Authors: Valeur Hanne Støre , Lie Anne Kveim , Moen Kåre
Published: May 2021

Background

Patient-accessible electronic health records (PAEHRs) enable patients to access their health records through a secure connection over the internet. Although previous studies of patient experiences with this kind of service have shown that a majority of users are positive toward PAEHRs, little is known about why some patients occasionally or regularly choose not to use them. A better understanding of why patients may choose not to make use of digital health services such as PAEHRs is important for further development and implementation of services aimed at having patients participate in digital health services.

Objective

The objective of the study was to explore patients’ rationales for not embracing online access to health records.

Methods

Qualitative interviews were conducted with 40 patients in a department of internal medicine in a Norwegian hospital in 2018-2019. Interview transcripts were subjected to thematic content analysis. In this paper, we focus on the subject of nonuse of PAEHRs.

Results

We identified 8 different rationales that study participants had for not embracing PAEHRs. When patients reflected on why they might not use PAEHRs, they variously explained that they found PAEHRs unnecessary (they did not feel they were useful), impersonal (they preferred oral dialogue with their doctor or nurse over written information), incomprehensible (the records contained medical terminology and explanations that were hard to understand), misery oriented (the records solely focused on disease), fear provoking (reading the records could cause unwanted emotional reactions), energy demanding (making sense of the records added to the work of being a patient), cumbersome (especially among patients who felt they did not have the necessary digital competence), and impoverishing (they were skeptical about the digital transformation of individual and social life).

Conclusions

It is often assumed that the barriers to PAEHR use are mostly practical (such as lack of hardware and access to the internet). In this study, we showed that patients may have many other valid reasons for not wanting to adopt this kind of service. The results can help guide how PAEHRs and other digital health services are promoted and presented to patients, and they may suggest that the goal of a given new digital health service should not necessarily be full uptake by all patients. Rather, one should recognize that different patients might prefer and benefit from different kinds of “analog” and digital health services.

Authors: Lesser Lenard I , Behal Raj
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUND

Both primary care practices based on the chronic care model (CCM) and digital therapeutics have been shown to improve the care of patients with diabetes.

OBJECTIVE

The aim of this observational study was to examine the change in diabetes control for patients enrolled in a membership-based primary care service that is based on the CCM.

METHODS

Using a diabetes registry, we analyzed the change in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) for patients with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (initial HbA1c≥9%). All patients had access to a technology-enhanced primary care practice built on the CCM.

RESULTS

The registry included 621 patients diagnosed with uncontrolled diabetes. All patients had at least two HbA1c measurements, with the average time between the first and last measurement of 1.2 years (SD 0.4). The average starting value of HbA1c was 10.7, which decreased to 8.7, corresponding to a reduction of 2.03 (P<.001). Secondary analyses showed statistically significant reductions in total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides.

CONCLUSIONS

Patients with initially uncontrolled diabetes who undergo care in a technology-enhanced primary care practice based on the CCM have long-term clinically meaningful reductions in HbA1c.

Authors: Martín-Valero Rocío , Pastora-Bernal Jose Manuel , Ortiz Ortigosa Lucia , Casuso-Holgado María Jesús , Pérez-Cabezas Verónica , Ruiz-Párraga Gema Teresa
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUND

Massive open online courses (MOOCs) are a form of free online distance learning. This research was based on xMOOCs that have more classical form.

OBJECTIVE

To determine the usefulness of an extended MOOC (xMOOC) in improving the academic performance of occupational therapy and physical therapy students, to determine whether an xMOOC increases empathy, and to test a hypothetical model through the structural equation analysis.

METHODS

This research was carried out using a descriptive and quasi-experimental design. It was conducted in a sample of 381 participants: 176 used an xMOOC and 205 did not.

RESULTS

The Student’s t-test showed statistically significant differences in academic performance between the groups in favor of those students who had completed the xMOOC. Statistically significant differences in empathy were also obtained between the pre (X= 62.06; SD= 4.41) and post (X=73.77; SD= 9.93) tests. The hypothetical model tested via structural equation modeling was supported by the results. Motivation for the xMOOC explained 50% of the variance of the xMOOC. The xMOOC (participation and realization) explained 58% of academic performance, 35% of cognitive empathy and 48% of affective empathy.

CONCLUSIONS

The results suggest an association between higher participation in and completion of the x-MOOC and higher levels of academic performance, and cognitive and affective empathy.
The Content and Quality of Publicly Available Information About Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia: Descriptive Study (Preprint)
Authors: Soltys Frank Coyle , Spilo Kimi , Politi Mary C
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUND

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) diagnosis in an infant is distressing for parents. Parents often feel unable to absorb the complexities of CDH during prenatal consultations and use the internet to supplement their knowledge and decision making.

OBJECTIVE

We aimed to examine the content and quality of publicly available, internet-based CDH information.

METHODS

We conducted internet searches across 2 popular search engines (Google and Bing). Websites were included if they contained CDH information and were publicly available. We developed a coding instrument to evaluate websites. Two coders (FS and KS) were trained, achieved interrater reliability, and rated remaining websites independently. Descriptive statistics were performed.

RESULTS

Searches yielded 520 websites; 91 met inclusion criteria and were analyzed. Most websites provided basic CDH information including describing the defect (86/91, 95%), need for neonatal intensive care (77/91, 85%), and surgical correction (79/91, 87%). Few mentioned palliative care, decisions about pregnancy termination (13/91, 14%), or support resources (21/91, 23%).

CONCLUSIONS

Findings highlight the variability of information about CDH on the internet. Clinicians should work to develop or identify reliable, comprehensive information about CDH to support parents.

Kehadiran orang tua berperan besar bagi kesejahteraan psikologis anak, khususnya remaja. Namun realitanya ada sebagian remaja yang tidak mendapatkan bimbingan dan afeksi orang tuanya, yaitu remaja di panti asuhan. Kesejahteraan psikologis dipengaruhi beberapa faktor, seperti kepribadian dan psikososial. Faktor kepribadian misalnya adalah internal locus of control, sedangkan faktor psikososial adalah spiritualitas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara internal locus of control dan spiritualitas dengan kesejahteraan psikologis pada remaja yang tinggal di panti asuhan. Pengambilan sampel menggunakan teknik studi populasi dengan jumlah 75 remaja. Pengumpulan data menggunakan skala kesejahteraan psikologis (28 aitem, α = 0,881), skala internal locus of control (22 aitem, α = 0,856), dan skala spiritualitas (26 aitem, α = 0,905). Hasil regresi berganda menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan antara internal locus of control dan spiritualitas dengan kesejahteraan psikologis (Ryx1x2 = 0,790; p < 0,05. Analisis regresi sederhana pertama menunjukkan terdapat hubungan antara internal locus of control dengan kesejahteraan psikologis (rx1y = 0,466; p < 0,05). Analisis regresi sederhana kedua menunjukkan terdapat hubungan antara spiritualitas dengan kesejahteraan psikologis (rx2y = 0,490; p < 0,05). Artinya semakin tinggi internal locus of control dan spiritualitas yang dimiliki seseorang, maka semakin tinggi kesejahteraan psikologisnya, begitu pula sebaliknya. Besar sumbangan efektif spiritualitas lebih besar terhadap kesejahteraan psikologis dengan memberikan sumbangan sebesar 32,5%, dibandingkan internal locus of control yaitu sebesar 30%.

Health Information System is a system that integrates the collection, processing, reporting of data, and use of information needed to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of health services through better management at all levels of health services. Kulon Progo Health Office is one of the Health Services that has utilized the Health Information System in organizing its health transactions. However, the implementation of the Health Information System still has shortcomings, namely that it was found that a patient has many medical record numbers or often referred to as duplicated medical record data. Community service activities are carried out through the use of appropriate technology at the Kulon Progo Health Office. This activity aims to implement data cleansing techniques using the "RESIK" framework  to help prevent and detect duplication of medical records and provide training to medical recorders in cleaning data. The training was attended by 105 participants, each of whom was a representative of the Puskesmas staff in the Kulon Progo Health Office area. The “RESIK” framework  was then piloted at Puskesmas Sentolo 2 as the location for the implementation of the system. From this activity, duplicate medical record data can be found at Puskesmas Sentolo 2, and then cleaning is carried out. Kulon Progo Health Office is advised to implement data cleansing using the "RESIK" framework  at all Puskesmas in the Kulon Progo area.

Published: May 2021

Patchouli oil is one of the export commodities with high economic value that attracts attention in the raw material business. To be marketed domestically as well as internationally, patchouli oil must meet the Indonesian National Standard (SNI). Various patchouli oil processing techniques have been developed by researchers but only a few that meet the requirements of SNI. In this study, patchouli leaves were processed using an energy-saving distiller equipped with heat insulators. Patchouli oil was then treated using bentonite-NaHCO3 composite adsorbent which was synthesized through a hydrothermal process followed by calcination. The program was executed by preparing of the distiller and adsorbent before applying them to Surya Wulan patchouli oil processing SME. The adsorbent was prepared and analyzed at the Physical Chemistry Laboratory and the distiller was tested in CV. Fruitanol Energy, Yogyakarta. The result showed that the distiller has a capacity of 15 kg, which can save costs up to 35.5% and 33.3% more efficient in time compared to the conventional technology in Surya Wulan SME.

Although Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) has become familiar to many mathematics teachers, we still have little understanding of the extent to which mathematics teachers are willing to employ RME rather than traditional teaching approaches. Based on the theory of planned behavior, in conjunction with some other factors, including facilitating conditions and perceived autonomy, this study investigated a model explaining the continued intention of mathematics teachers to use Realistic Mathematics Education. A structural equation model was used to access data from an online survey involving 500 secondary school mathematics teachers in Vietnam. The results revealed that while attitude, perceived behavioral control and perceived autonomy have positive significant impacts on intention to use RME, it appears that subjective norms and facilitating conditions do not. These findings are of significance to stakeholders, including policymakers, school managers, and mathematics teachers.

To analyze the quality of life of nursing students at the Federal University of Pará. This is a quantitative, descriptive study. As for the general quality of life, 22.01% evaluated it as bad or very bad. Regarding health assessment, 38.99% showed dissatisfaction. In the physical domain, the highest score was observed in the energy and fatigue aspect (3.34) and the worst score was in daily activities (2.35). In the psychological domain, the highest score was in spirituality/religion/ personal beliefs (3.57) and the worst was in positive feelings (2.81). The aspects related to social relations domain received approximate scores: social support (3.47), personal relationships (3.34), and sexual activity (3.23). In the domain environment, the best score was attributed to the environment at home (3.29) and the worst to recreation/leisure opportunities on campus (2.00). Nursing students are prone to develop psychosomatic illnesses and, consequently, decrease their quality of life.

Published: May 2021

Background: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is an important public
health problem because of its high morbidity, mortality, and health care
costs. Many biomarkers have been used to determine the severity and
prognosis of pneumonia. Ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) is a marker of
the recently used oxidant-antioxidant mechanism and has been found to
increase in many inflammatory conditions. Objectives: To investigate the
role of the levels of IMA in CAP and to evaluate its relationship with
pneumonia severity. Methods: A total of 150 patients with a diagnosis of
CAP and 150 healthy individuals were included in the study. IMA levels
were evaluated in both groups. The patients with CAP were divided into
ambulatory, ward and intensive care groups, and their IMA levels were
compared. Results: There was no significant difference between the two
groups in terms of age or gender (p > 0.05 for both). No
significant difference was observed in the IMA levels of the patient and
control groups (p ˃ 0.05). The lowest IMA level was observed in the
ambulatory group (p = 0.001). When the patients in the ambulatory and
hospitalized (ward and intensive care together) groups were evaluated,
the cut-off value of IMA was 77.60 ABSU, sensitivity was 64.9%,
specificity was 75.0%, positive predictive value was 89.2%, and
negative predictive value was 40.3%. Conclusion: In the management of
patients with CAP, IMA seems to be a useful marker for CAP severity and
hospitalization decision. Keywords: Community-acquired pneumonia,
ischemia-modified albumin, biomarker

Background: This study evaluated short-term (1-month) and long-term
(1-year) mortality risks associated with kidney function measured by
estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) levels at admission for
patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. Methods: From the Taiwan Stroke
Registry data, we identified and stratified patients with intracerebral
hemorrhage into 5 subgroups by the eGFR levels at admission: ≥ 90,
60-89, 30-59, 15-29, and < 15 mL/min/1.73m2 or on dialysis
from April 2006 to December 2016. Risks of 1-month mortality and 1-year
mortality rates after intracerebral hemorrhage were investigated by the
eGFR levels. Results: Both the 1-month mortality and 1-year mortality
rates increased as the eGFR level decreased. The 1-month mortality rate
was over 5-fold greater in patients with eGFR < 15
mL/min/1.73m2 or on dialysis than in patients with eGFR levels ≥ 90
mL/min/1.73m2 (8.31 versus 1.50 per 1000 person-days), with an adjusted
hazard ratio (HR) of 4.59 [95% confidence interval (CI) =
2.71-7.78]. Similarly, the 1-year mortality rate was 7.5-fold greater
in patients with eGFR < 15 mL/min/1.73m2 or on dialysis than
in patients with eGFR ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73m2, with an adjusted HR of 4.54
(95% CI 2.95-6.98). Conclusion: The eGFR level can be an indicator of
prognosis for patients with intracerebral hemorrhage.
Stand structure-dependent mass-ratio and complementarity effects simultaneously drive aboveground biomass in temperate Quercus forests

Published: May 2021

Aim: Forests play a key role in regulating the global carbon
cycle, a substantial portion of which is stored in aboveground biomass
(AGB). It is well-understood that biodiversity can increase the
biomass through complementarity and mass-ratio effects, and the
contribution of environmental factors and stand structure attributes to
AGB was also observed. However, the relative influence of these factors
in determining the AGB of Quercus forests remains poorly
understood. Location: Temperate Quercus forests in
northeastern China. Methods: Using a large dataset retrieved
from 523 permanent forest inventory plots across Northeast China, we
examined the effects of integrated multiple tree species diversity
components (i.e., species richness, functional and phylogenetic
diversity), functional traits composition, environmental factors
(climate and soil), stand age, and structure attributes (stand density,
tree size diversity) on AGB based on structural equation models.
Results: We found that species richness and phylogenetic
diversity both were not correlated with AGB. However, functional
diversity positively affected AGB via an indirect effect in line with
the complementarity effect. Moreover, the community-weighted mean of
specific leaf area and height increased AGB directly and indirectly,
respectively; demonstrating the mass-ratio effect. Furthermore, stand
age, density, and tree size diversity were more important modulators of
AGB than biodiversity. Main conclusions: Our study highlights
that biodiversity-AGB interaction is dependent on the regulation of
stand structure that can be even more important for maintaining high
biomass than biodiversity in temperate Quercus forests.
Group Judgment and Decision Making in Auditing: Research in the Time of COVID-19 and Beyond
Authors: Bauer Tim D. , Humphreys Kerry A. , Trotman Ken T.
Published: May 2021

The COVID-19 pandemic has fundamentally changed how auditors work and interact with team members and others in the financial reporting process. In particular, there has been a move away from face-to-face interactions to the use of virtual teams, with strong indications many of these changes will remain post-pandemic. We examine the impacts of the pandemic on group judgment and decision making (JDM) research in auditing by reviewing research on auditor interactions with respect to the review process (including coaching), fraud brainstorming, consultations within audit firms, and parties outside the audit firm such as client management and the audit committee. Through the pandemic lens and for each auditor interaction, we consider new research questions for audit JDM researchers to investigate and new ways of addressing existing research questions given these fundamental changes. We also identify potential impacts on research methods used to address these questions during the pandemic and beyond.
