L'essor de la diagrammatologie
Authors: Stjernfelt Frederik , Chevalier Jean-Marie
Published: September 2021

En 2007, le philosophe danois Frederik Stjernfelt a donné une nouvelle vigueur aux études sur les diagrammes en publiant son opus majeur Diagrammatology . Ce terme a acquis l’extension d’une sous-discipline à part entière à l’intérieur des études sémiotiques. La diagrammatologie fédère aujourd’hui des recherches venues des sciences cognitives aussi bien que du post-structuralisme, des mathématiques et des études littéraires. Frederik Stjernfelt explique comment la diagrammatologie résulte pour lui d’une redéfinition de certains concepts fondamentaux (ceux de signe, de proposition et de diagramme au premier chef) amorcée par le père du pragmatisme, Charles S. Peirce.
GenIDA : l’histoire naturelle et les comorbidités des troubles du neurodéveloppement d’origine génétique
Authors: Burger Pauline , Coutelle Romain , Strehle Axelle , Colin Florent , Collot Nicole , Koolen David , Kleefstra Tjitske , Mandel Jean-Louis
Published: September 2021

Au sein des troubles du neurodéveloppement, la déficience intellectuelle (DI), avec ou sans Trouble du spectre de l’autisme (TSA) et/ou épilepsie touche 1 à 2 % des enfants et jeunes adultes, et il est estimé que plus de 50 % de ces cas ont une cause génétique unique. Plus de 1 000 gènes et anomalies chromosomiques récurrentes sont impliqués dans ces formes génétiques de DI ou TSA, correspondant à autant de maladies différentes, qui sont le plus souvent très insuffisamment décrites, du fait de leur rareté, de leur découverte en général récente, et du nombre souvent limité de patients. GenIDA est une base de données participative internationale initiée en 2016, dans le but de mieux caractériser les manifestations cliniques et les histoires naturelles de ces formes génétiques de DI et/ou TSA, afin d’en tirer des informations pouvant être utiles à la prise en charge des personnes atteintes. Pour cela, les parents de ces personnes sont sollicités pour répondre à un questionnaire structuré portant sur les paramètres physiques, médicaux, cognitifs et comportementaux. Les informations cliniques ainsi collectées sont analysées afin d’identifier de nouvelles informations ayant du sens pour les familles et les professionnels concernés par une maladie donnée. Disponible en 7 langues, le questionnaire a été rempli pour plus de 1 150 patients : les principales cohortes correspondent aux syndromes de Koolen-de Vries (KdVS), Kleefstra et KBG. L’analyse des données collectées a notamment permis d’identifier des problèmes respiratoires chez les patients KdVS non signalés auparavant, et des profils cognitifs dans ces 3 syndromes. GenIDA permet également d’envisager, de par ses propriétés et les résultats précédemment obtenus, la réalisation d’études longitudinales qui permettraient de suivre, en particulier, l’évolution des compétences en socialisation et la typologie des troubles du comportement.
La justice prédictive : peut-on réduire le droit en algorithmes ?
Authors: Rouvière Frédéric
Published: September 2021

La justice prédictive semble reposer sur un malentendu. La machine ne serait susceptible de se substituer à l’humain que dans les hypothèses où l’intelligence humaine a une faible valeur ajoutée. L’objet de cette contribution est de distinguer ces hypothèses d’autres situations où l’intelligence artificielle est l’alliée du juriste et non plus son ennemi, relevant par là même les choix méthodologiques profonds à faire sur la nature du raisonnement juridique.
Un modèle de prise en charge de l’urgence psychiatrique : Unité Psychiatrique de Liaison et d’Urgences du Centre Hospitalier Sud Francilien
Authors: Vigne Simon
Published: September 2021

Appartenant au Pôle de Psychiatrie Adulte du Centre Hospitalier Sud Francilien, l’Unité de Psychiatrie de Liaison et d’Urgence (UPLI) a pour mission de répondre aux urgences aux côtés des urgentistes, de prendre en charge en hospitalisation de moins de 72 heures des patients en situation de crise psychiatrique, de répondre aux avis de liaison psychiatrique dans les services d’hospitalisation médicaux. Projet novateur, mobile et diversifié dans son offre de soin, l’UPLI se trouve mise à mal dans son projet initial tant par l’état d’abandon de la psychiatrie publique que par la méconnaissance des soins psychiatriques par les instances tutélaires. Ce document tente de faire un constat de l’actuel et de proposer des pistes de réflexion pour une psychiatrie centrée sur le patient et sa prise en charge.
Urgences psychiatriques et crises suicidaires en milieu carcéral
Authors: Monod Guillaume
Published: September 2021

Depuis la loi du 18 janvier 1994, la gestion sanitaire de chaque établissement carcéral est confiée à une unité sanitaire en milieu pénitentiaire (USMP), rattachée à un établissement public de santé de proximité. La psychiatrie en milieu pénitentiaire traite des mêmes problématiques cliniques que la psychiatrie en milieu ouvert, car, si certaines maladies mentales telles que le trouble obsessionnel compulsif ou le trouble des comportements alimentaires sont rarissimes en détention, il n’y a cependant pas de pathologie spécifique au milieu carcéral, pas de trouble mental qui ne s’observerait qu’en prison et pas au dehors. La gestion des urgences psychiatriques et des crises suicidaires est donc conditionnée non pas par des facteurs cliniques, mais par des facteurs institutionnels.
Première consultation au Centre Psychiatrique d’Orientation et d’Accueil (CPOA) de l’hôpital Sainte-Anne à Paris. Récit d’une usagère
Authors: Ozenne Jessica
Published: September 2021

Une usagère du CPOA à Sainte-Anne nous propose un témoignage simple et authentique de son expérience. Le CPOA est un service parisien qui accueille les urgences psychiatriques, et reçoit et oriente ceux qui ont besoin d’aide. A travers le regard d’une personne qui n’a jamais connu de service de psychiatrie et qui est confrontée à sa première consultation aux urgences, nous découvrons également le CPOA sous un autre jour, un autre regard. C’est du point de vue de l’usager néophyte, qui n’a pas de connaissance des rouages des secteurs de psychiatrie, que nous pouvons découvrir certaines particularités de cet accueil dans des urgences « qui ne ressemblent pas aux urgences générales ». Au décours de ce témoignage c’est la question de la connaissance de l’existence d’un tel service, pourtant indispensable à la population, qui se pose.

Authors: Tañá-Sanz Pedro , Rodríguez-Carrillo María Dolores , Elvira-Giner Belén , Ruiz-Santos María , Montés-Micó Robert , Tañá-Rivero Pedro
Published: September 2021

PURPOSE:

To evaluate the refractive and visual outcomes following cataract surgery and implantation of a new enhanced monofocal extended depth of focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL).

METHODS:

Fifty eyes of 25 consecutive patients who underwent implantation of the xact Mono-EDoF IOL (Santen Pharmaceutical Co, Ltd) were enrolled in this study. Main outcome measures were refractive error and monocular corrected (CDVA) and uncorrected (UDVA) distance visual acuity values. Monocular visual acuity at different vergences (defocus curve) was obtained. Patients were evaluated at 12 months postoperatively.

RESULTS:

At 1 year of follow-up, all eyes showed a postoperative spherical equivalent within ±1.00 diopters (D) and 95% of eyes within ±0.50 D. The mean postoperative spherical equivalent was −0.15 ± 0.28 D. A total of 88% and 100% of eyes showed UDVA and CDVA of 20/25 or better, respectively. The mean values of UDVA and CDVA (Snellen decimal) were 0.94 ± 0.09 (range: 0.70 to 1.00) and 0.99 ± 0.03 (range: 0.79 to 1.00), respectively. Defocus curve showed good visual acuity at distance and intermediate distances with a depth of focus value of 1.25 D. No visual disturbances were reported in the whole sample during the entire follow-up.

CONCLUSIONS:

The current study shows that this EDOF IOL provides good visual performance at far and intermediate distances. The lens may be considered for patients interested in reducing spectacle independence at intermediate distances.

Accelerated CXL Versus Accelerated Contact Lens–Assisted CXL for Progressive Keratoconus in Adults
Authors: Matlov Kormas Ran , Abu Tailakh Muhammad , Chorny Alexander , Jacob Soosan , Knyazer Boris
Published: September 2021

PURPOSE:

To compare the clinical and tomographic properties of adult patients with keratoconus treated with accelerated corneal cross-linking (A-CXL) versus accelerated contact lens–assisted corneal cross-linking (A-CACXL).

METHODS:

Patients who underwent A-CXL and A-CACXL due to progressive keratoconus were enrolled from January 2015 to January 2018 in this retrospective case–control study. The treatment group (minimum corneal thickness of less than 400 µm after epithelium removal; 30 patients, 30 eyes) was treated with A-CACXL; the control group (minimum corneal thickness of 400 µm or greater, 32 patients, 32 eyes) was treated with A-CXL. Assessments occurred before treatment and 12 months postoperatively. Demographic, clinical, and tomographic data were obtained from outpatient clinic reports.

RESULTS:

Significant improvement in visual acuity was evident at 12-month follow-up for the control group in uncorrected distance visual acuity (0.62 ± 0.42 vs 0.43 ± 0.31 logMAR,
P
= .01) and the treatment group in corrected distance visual acuity (0.51 ± 0.30 vs 0.40 ± 0.49 logMAR,
P
= .03). Progression of keratoconus was halted at similar rates for both groups (76.7% treatment, 84.4% control,
P
= .21). Mean minimum corneal thickness showed minor but significant thinning at the 12-month follow-up visit compared to baseline (control group = 463 ± 31 vs 450 ± 35 µm,
P
> .01; treatment group = 398 ± 32 vs 388 ± 41 µm,
P
= .02).

CONCLUSIONS:

A-CACXL halted keratoconus progression in 76.7% of eyes and achieved regression in 33.3% of eyes, with rates comparable to A-CXL. Visual outcomes improved for both groups, with similar keratometry changes. A-CACXL is an effective and safe option for patients with keratoconus and thin corneas, with results similar to A-CXL treatment in patients with a minimum corneal thickness of 400 µm or greater.

Pain Control Following Photorefractive Keratectomy: A Prospective Clinical Trial Comparing Codeine Versus Oxycodone for the Management of Postoperative Pain
Authors: Palochak Cherilyn Mae A. , Reed Donovan S. , Apsey Douglas A. , Legault Gary L. , Carlton Darrel , Caldwell Matthew C. , Townley James R. , Madsen Michael H. , Evangelista Charisma B.
Published: September 2021

PURPOSE:

To compare the efficacy of oral codeine plus acetaminophen versus oxycodone plus acetaminophen for severe pain control following photorefractive keratectomy (PRK).

METHODS:

This single-center trial randomized 200 patients to receive codeine 30 mg/acetaminophen 325 mg (codeine group) or oxycodone 5 mg/acetaminophen 325 mg (oxycodone group)every 4 hours as needed for severe pain for 4 days following PRK. Patients recorded postoperative pain, tablet consumption, and tetracaine use. Patients were monitored at postoperative 1 day, 1 week, and 1, 3, and 6 months for visual acuity and follow-up. Study outcomes were mean postoperative pain, treatment and tetracaine use, and visual acuity.

RESULTS:

Analysis of 197 patients who completed the trial (97 codeine group and 100 oxycodone group) showed mean pain scores were lower in the codeine group throughout the intervention period. Mean pain scores were higher in the oxycodone group than the codeine group on postoperative days 2 and 4 (
P
= .017 and
P
= .034, respectively). The oxycodone group consumed more tablets than the codeine group, with a difference on postoperative day 2 (
P
= .019), and used a greater number of tetracaine drops (
P
= .015). Repeated measures analysis of variance showed significant improvement in visual acuity in both groups with no difference in visual outcomes (
P
= .81).

CONCLUSIONS:

Codeine/acetaminophen is as effective and safe as oxycodone/acetaminophen for pain control following PRK, with no clinical difference in overall pain control and long-term visual outcomes. This implies that treating postoperative pain after PRK with a Schedule III opioid (codeine) is effective and potentially decreases the risk of misuse by a higher regulated Schedule II opioid (oxycodone), lowering the potential for abuse and dependence.

Comparison of Axis Determination With Different Toric Intraocular Lens Power Calculation Methods
Authors: Röggla Veronika , Schartmüller Daniel , Schwarzenbacher Luca , Chbib Rima Al , Leydolt Christina , Menapace Rupert
Published: September 2021

PURPOSE:

To compare the axis position of the measured total corneal astigmatism (TCA) with the axis of the anterior keratometry and the calculated axis position of different toric intraocular lens (IOL) calculators.

METHODS:

A total of 163 astigmatic eyes of 163 patients were retrospectively analyzed. The axis of the actual TCA, measured with anterior segment optical coherence tomography, was compared to the anterior keratometric value (Group I) and three different methods of TCA calculation for toric IOL power determination: Abulafia-Koch regression formula (Group II), Barrett Toric Calculator V2.0 (Group III), and Barrett Toric Calculator V2.0 including measured posterior keratometric value (Group IV). Eyes were assigned to three subgroups: with-the-rule, against-the-rule, and oblique astigmatism.

RESULTS:

The mean deviation calculated from measured TCA was +0.56° (Group I), −0.32° (Group II), −0.37° (Group III), and −1.00° (Group IV). For with-the-rule astigmatism, the TCA axis agreed most with Group I (6.5% outliers > 5° deviation). For against-the-rule astigmatism, Group IV and Group II were closest to the measured TCA axis (1.5% and 3% outliers with > 5° deviation).

CONCLUSIONS:

The means of the calculated axis were similar to the measured TCA, but the proportion of outliers with an axis deviation of greater than 5° showed remarkable differences. Isolated anterior keratometric value measurements showed the fewest outliers in with-the-rule astigmatism. In against-the-rule astigmatism, Abulafia-Koch calculation should be used for axis determination.

Authors: Sayin Osman , Altinkaynak Hasan , Adam Mehmet , Dirican Emrah , Agca Okan
Published: September 2021

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:

To investigate the reliability and quality of vitreoretinal surgery videos posted on YouTube.

PATIENTS AND METHODS:

A search was made using the keywords “vitrectomy,” “retinal surgery,” and “vitreoretinal surgery” on YouTube. Total view counts, numbers of comments, likes and dislikes, publishing dates, and source of videos were recorded. Educational quality and accuracy of the video content were evaluated using the DISCERN score, Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) scoring system, and Global Quality Scores (GQS).

RESULTS:

There were 208 videos included in the study; 152 (73.1%) videos were uploaded by doctors and 56 (26.9%) videos uploaded by non-doctors. Mean DISCERN, JAMA, and GQS scores were 37.65 ± 10.49 (20–69), 0.82 ± 0.52 (0–4), 2.86 ± 0.86 (1–5), respectively.

CONCLUSIONS:

Vitreoretinal surgery videos on YouTube were of low quality and reliability. Those who want to use YouTube videos as a reference for vitreoretinal surgery should pay extra attention to selection of content.

Macular Retinal Pigment Epithelial Clumping Leading to a Diagnosis of FEVR
Authors: Tanenbaum Rebecca , Acon Dhariana , Rodriguez Ana , Negron Catherin , Berrocal Audina
Published: September 2021

Familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) is a rare hereditary disorder characterized by abnormal or incomplete retinal angiogenesis. The peripheral avascularity, irregular neovascularization, and vascular leakage seen in FEVR are similar to changes that may be seen in retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). The authors report a case of atypical macular pigment clumping leading to the diagnosis of ROPER (ie, ROP vs FEVR) in a premature infant born at 23 weeks of gestation with a birth weight of 451 grams, who presented with atypical aggressive posterior ROP and a heterozygous variant in the LRP5 gene.

Exact null-controllability of interconnected abstract evolution equations with unbounded input operators
Authors: Shklyar Benzion
Published: September 2021

The exact null-controllability problem in the class of smooth controls with applications to interconnected systems was considered in [23] for the case of bounded input operators appearing in systems with distributed controls. The current paper constitutes an extension of the [23] for the case of unbounded input operators (with more emphasis on the controllability of interconnected systems). The proofs of the results of [23] for the case of bounded input operators are adopted for the case of unbounded input operators.

Authors: Zhang Linbo ,   Department of Health Management and Division of Physical Examination, The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University, Shuang Yong Road 6, Nanning 530021, China, Xin Mei , Wang Peng
Published: September 2021

Since multiple studies have reported that small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) can be serve as prognostic biomarkers for cancers, however, the prognostic values of snoRNAs in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remain unclear. Therefore, the main work of this study is to identify the prognostic snoRNAs of LUAD and conduct a comprehensive analysis. The Cancer Genome Atlas LUAD cohort whole-genome RNA-sequencing dataset is included in this study, prognostic analysis and multiple bioinformatics approaches are used for comprehensive analysis and identification of prognostic snoRNAs. There were seven LUAD prognostic snoRNAs were screened in current study. We also constructed a novel expression signature containing five LUAD prognostic snoRNAs (snoU109, SNORA5A, SNORA70, SNORD104 and U3). Survival analysis of this expression signature reveals that LUAD patients with high risk score was significantly related to an unfavourable overall survival (adjusted P = 0.01, adjusted hazard ratio = 1.476, 95% confidence interval = 1.096-1.987). Functional analysis indicated that LUAD patients with different risk score phenotypes had significant differences in cell cycle, apoptosis, integrin, transforming growth factor beta, ErbB, nuclear factor kappa B, mitogen-activated protein kinase, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase and toll like receptor signaling pathway. Immune microenvironment analysis also indicated that there were significant differences in immune microenvironment scores among LUAD patients with different risk score. In conclusion, this study identified an novel expression signature containing five LUAD prognostic snoRNAs, which may be serve as an independent prognostic indicator for LUAD patients.

Authors: Shiau Wen-Lung , Chen Hao , Chen Kuanchin , Liu Yi-Hung , Tan Felix Ter Chian
Published: September 2021

This research aims to elucidate the service quality factors influencing customer satisfaction with ride-sharing services. Particularly, this research compares Chinese and US consumers to identify the influence of national culture on user attitudes. Empirical research was conducted via two online surveys in China and the US. Data were collected and analyzed using partial least squares (PLS) analysis. The results show that while the satisfaction of the Chinese ride-sharing consumers was affected primarily by reliability, followed by platform assurance and empathy, the satisfaction of American consumers was influenced mainly by the conditions of ride-sharing vehicles (tangibles). The PLS-MGA results indicate that satisfaction with ride-sharing services had a significantly stronger impact on American than on Chinese continuance intention. Managerial implications are provided.

Authors: Zhang Yucheng , Ge Linjie , Xiao Lin , Zhang Meng , Liu Siqi
Published: September 2021

Information Systems (IS) scholars attempted to explore the intellectual structure of the IS discipline from previous literature. However, the corpus data, analytical method, and sample size are significantly different among these review studies, which lead to rather mixed results. In this bibliometric review, the authors portray and visualize the panorama of the evolutionary process of IS research with two powerful bibliometric tools, including both CiteSpace and VOSviewer. Specifically, based on a series of bibliometric algorithms (e.g., SCI-Map and referene-NLP), the authors analyze 80,147 primary articles and 1,325,376 secondary articles in the IS domain to examine its 1) intellectual output mode, 2) knowledge bases, and 3) the popular and promising topics in the future from the evolutionary and clustering perspectives. By doing so, the authors provide a comprehensive navigation for the IS studies and set up an agenda for future research.
NDT of wire ropes with EM instruments - an examination of operational conditions in Canada
Authors: Geller L B , Udd J E
Published: September 2021

Responding to requests by the Canadian raining industry and the mine regulatory authorities, the Canada Centre for Mineral and Energy Technology (CANMET) undertook a major research project on an evaluation of wire-rope testing in 1986. The objectives were to
document, analyse, and clarify - in basic operational terms - the reasons for ongoing mine-shaft wire-rope failures that occur despite mandatory non-destructive testing (NDT) with electro-magnetic (EM) instruments on a routine basis.
The project's investigative scope and depth was unprecedented. It could not have been successfully completed without the wholehearted cooperation of industry, research organizations, and mine-inspectorates at both national and international levels.
The project's goals were attained. It was shown that, at present, the problem areas in Canada are of a human, rather than of a hardware-related nature. Consequently, the principal recommendations are concerned with a more widespread, more uniform and thoroughgoing operator training and certification
process at industrial and regulatory levels. Secondary suggestions concern areas of hardware-related improvements.
In this paper an up-to-date general overview is given of the major project results. An extensive reference list is also provided of papers that contain all relevant documentation in detail.
Invertibility Threshold for Nevanlinna Quotient Algebras
Authors: Nicolau Artur , Thomas Pascal J.
Published: September 2021

Let
$\mathcal {N}$
be the Nevanlinna class, and let B be a Blaschke product. It is shown that the natural invertibility criterion in the quotient algebra
$\mathcal {N} / B \mathcal {N}$
, that is,
$|f| \ge e^{-H} $
on the set
$B^{-1}\{0\}$
for some positive harmonic function H, holds if and only if the function
$- \log |B|$
has a harmonic majorant on the set
$\{z\in \mathbb {D}:\rho (z,\Lambda )\geq e^{-H(z)}\}$
, at least for large enough functions H. We also study the corresponding class of positive harmonic functions H on the unit disc such that the latter condition holds. We also discuss the analogous invertibility problem in quotients of the Smirnov class.

Published: September 2021

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to identify the trajectories and potential predictors of tobacco use during adolescence in Korea and to develop appropriate strategies for the implementation of tobacco use prevention programs.METHODS: The trajectory of tobacco use and associated predictors were analyzed for 1,169 male students from grade 6 (age 11-12) to grade 10 (age 15-16) in the Korean Children & Youth Panel Survey from 2012 to 2016.RESULTS: Three trajectories of smoking experience were identified: non-smokers (class 1: n=775, 82.3%), temporary users (class 2: n=32, 3.4%), and regular users (class 3: n=135, 14.3%). When compared to non-smokers, temporary users had a higher likelihood of living with a single parent, dissatisfaction with grades, having a girlfriend, having been victimized at least once, and having at least 1 delinquent friend in grade 7 (when smoking experimentation was at its peak). Significant factors associated with regular use included having a girlfriend, committing at least 1 type of delinquent behavior, and being a non-reader. Committing at least 1 type of delinquent behavior and having at least 1 delinquent friend were associated with regular users, distinguishing them from temporary users.CONCLUSIONS: Understanding why adolescents exhibit different trajectories of tobacco use by identifying the factors associated with each trajectory can contribute to the development of tailored prevention strategies and early cessation programs for adolescents.
From a Concentration of Finds to Stone Age Architecture
Authors: Khrustaleva Irina , Kriiska Aivar
Published: September 2021

High-quality documentation that was made during fieldwork at archaeological sites can provide new information for old excavations, even decades later. The revision of the archival data of the Stone Age settlement site Lommi III, located in the border zone of Russia and Estonia and excavated by Richard Indreko in 1940, allowed us to identify the remains of a Comb Ware culture (4th millennium cal BC) pit-house based on the concentration of artefacts marked in the field drawings. The rectangular shape and size of the concentration (c. 7.1x4.4m, depth 0.7–0.75m) corresponds to the architectural form common in the European forest zone and has numerous analogies at the settlement sites of that time in Finland, Karelia (Russia) and Estonia. The composition and diversity of the finds and their distribution indicate the (semi-)sedentary way of life of inhabitants of the pit-house. The radiocarbon age obtained from the organic crust on pottery fragments collected in the pit-house corresponds to the first half of 4th millennium cal BC.

Time Burden of Bladder Management in Individuals With Spinal Cord Injury
Authors: Velaer Kyla Nichole , Welk Blayne , Ginsberg David , Myers Jeremy , Shem Kazuko , Elliott Christopher
Published: September 2021

Background:

While clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) is the gold standard for bladder management after spinal cord injury (SCI), many individuals with SCI, for reasons not fully understood, choose alternative bladder management. We hypothesized that CIC is associated with an increased time burden in individuals with SCI.

Objectives:

To investigate the time required to perform neurogenic bladder management in individuals with SCI.

Methods:

An electronic nonvalidated questionnaire was designed to determine the self-reported time spent performing bladder management. It was sent to participants in the Neurogenic Bladder Research Group SCI Registry, a national quality of life study of individuals with SCI.

Results:

Eighty-seven individuals responded to the survey. CIC was the most common bladder management (76%). Men and women performing independent CIC had similar average times with each catheterization episode (8.8 vs. 8.5 minutes, p = .864) as did women with a catheterizable stoma compared to women catheterizing per urethra (8.2 minutes, p = .913). Longer catheterization times were associated with cervical spine injury (mean 12.4 minutes per catheterization) and women requiring caregiver assistance (mean 20 minutes per catheterization). In addition, obese/overweight women had longer CIC times than normal weight women (14.5 minutes vs. 7 minutes; p = .036), while catheterization time was similar for all men regardless of body mass index. Individuals with indwelling catheters spent less than a third of the time on bladder management per day compared to those doing CIC (17 vs. 53 minutes per day, p < .001).

Conclusion:

Management of neurogenic bladder after SCI, especially in those performing CIC, is time consuming. This time burden may play a role in long-term bladder management decisions.

Authors: Priyadharshini S; Dr. MaruthupandiP and Dr. Latha Mercy E
Published: September 2021

Wind energy is a hopeful renewable energy which is used to generate electricity. The kinetic energy present in the wind
is converted into electrical energy by the principle of Wind Energy Conversion System. This effort approaches the performance
enhancement by re-design, re-fabrication, and re-implementation of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator-based wind
energy conversion system and data logging system. PMSG connected to the wind turbine converts wind power into electricity.
The proposed hardware design of PMSG aims to achieve the overall improved efficiency of the wind turbine by 7-10% of the
existing hardware design. In the proposed design of PMSG overall efficiency was improved by increasing the magnet grade,
reducing the air gap, and changing the winding type. A web dependent supervising system has been recognized. A data logging
system was used for collection of data on wind speed, generating power, and other related data. Besides, the stored data can be
observed through the website depend on data showed by the Global System for Mobile Communications. So, the user can monitor
related data through the website. The Load Management System was used to balance the supply of electricity
Assessing the Educational Environment of a Flipped Physical Therapy Course: Utilization of the Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM)
Authors: Willis Brad , Prost Evan , Sayers Stephen
Published: September 2021

Purpose: Using valid and reliable measures to assess curricula within health professions programs has gained significant attention in recent years. The educational environment is considered a key domain for student success. The primary aim of this study was to measure the educational environment following the addition of a flipped classroom model within a physical therapy course as measured by the Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure. Methods: A first year doctorate of physical therapy course, “Physical Agents”, was redesigned to include a flipped classroom model, incorporating 24 videos that students reviewed independently, prior to hands-on laboratory learning. Following the conclusion of the course, students (n=57) completed the Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure, a valid and reliable survey designed to measure the educational environment within health profession programs. The Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure contains 50 items, rated from 0 to 4 (5-point Likert scale, “0” strongly disagree to “4” strongly agree), assessing five domains: students’ perceptions of learning; perceptions of teachers; academic self-perception; perceptions of atmosphere; and social self-perception. Descriptive statistics included mean global score (out of 200, 151 to 200 being an excellent environment) mean domain scores, and mean item scores. Cumulative grade point average between students in the flipped classroom model (n=58) and those who previously received a traditional teaching model (n=59) for the course were also compared. Student’s t-test was utilized with significance accepted at p<0.05. Results: The mean global score (168 ± 13.3), indicated that the flipped classroom model fostered an excellent educational environment. Additionally, all mean domain scores, including students’ perceptions of learning (41.3 ± 3.9), perceptions of teachers (39.2 ± 2.9), academic self-perception (25.1 ± 2.5) perception of atmosphere (40.1 ± 4.1) and social self-perception (22.1 ± 2.9) fell into the highest rank of each subscale. Individual item analysis demonstrated 26 items (52%) were identified as especially strong areas, five items (10%) were identified as areas that could be improved, and no individual items were identified as requiring particular concern or immediate attention. Further, no significant differences were seen in cumulative course grade point average between the flipped classroom model (3.74 ± 0.44) and the traditional teaching model (3.71 ± 0.46). Conclusions: The flipped classroom model, utilizing an online learning environment, fostered an excellent educational environment for the physical therapy Physical Agents class. No difference in course grade point average between the flipped classroom model and previous traditional teaching model was seen. Further investigations examining performance on didactic and psychomotor activities within the flipped classroom model are recommended.
Understanding and Supporting Adults with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder - Strategies for Health Professionals: an Opinion Piece
Authors: Martyniuk Amy , Melrose Sherri
Published: September 2021

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) is a non-diagnostic umbrella term used to describe the spectrum of lifelong physical, mental and intellectual disabilities that can result from prenatal exposure to alcohol. Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder is preventable when pregnant women abstain from drinking any type or amount of alcohol at any time during pregnancy. One in 100 children worldwide are affected. Prompt diagnosis and treatment referrals for infants and children improve functionality. Yet, conditions related to fetal alcohol exposure frequently remain unrecognized and untreated. Adults with both diagnosed and hidden Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder experience significant cognitive, behavioral and executive functioning deficits. Co-morbid physical and psychiatric disorders are common. This editorial provides health professionals with information to understand and support adults with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. Specific strategies related to initiating referrals to community services, communicating intentionally and responding positively to behavioral challenges are discussed.
Inside Outsourcing: Experiences of Outsourced Physical Therapy Services in Dutch Hospitals
Authors: Steenbruggen Rudi , Boven Hannah
Published: September 2021

Over the past years, it has become more common in Dutch hospitals to outsource allied healthcare services to the private sector. This development has affected hospital-based physical therapy significantly. And as a result, there is an increasing need for guidance in this new situation. In response to this, the Dutch Association of Physical Therapy in Hospitals (NVZF) conducted a comprehensive study into the process of outsourcing with the objective to inform and advise physical therapy services in hospitals about outsourcing developments. Eight Dutch hospitals where physical therapy services had been outsourced or where this option was explored, were interviewed. The EFQM-Model (European Foundation for Quality Management – Excellence Model) was used to examine the outsourcing process. This provided the following insights into the outsourcing process of physical therapy in Dutch hospitals: (a) three motives of the board of a hospital to outsource the department of physical therapy and three factors influencing whether outsourcing will occur, (b) four different organizational structures of physical therapy services, two of which reflect outsourced services and (c) nine critical factors to be considered by hospital-based physical therapy services when outsourcing occurs. The results of the research were summarized in a Dutch guideline consisting of three parts named “Identifying Motives for Outsourcing and the Probability of Outsourcing”, “Organizing according to the Right to Exist”, and “Development Goals for the Future using the Critical Factors from the Research Results”.
Need for Nutrition Education in Health Professional Programs: A Review of the Literature
Authors: Livne Nava
Published: September 2021

Purpose: The ever-increasing burden of obesity as a high risk factor for nutrition-related diseases, together with health professionals’ lack of competencies in nutrition, has left health professional students needing further education to offer nutrition advising to patients. The purpose of this review was to summarize the current literature related to nutrition education in health professional programs. Method: This literature review was conducted using eight scientific literature databases: PubMed, CINAHL Complete, PsycINFO, Academic Search Complete, Directory of Open Access Journals, Professional Development Collection, Complementary Index, and Google Scholar. Articles published in English from January 2007 through January 2018 were reviewed. Keywords and terms from the Medical Subject Headings [MeSH] thesaurus were used to create combinations of keywords. Of 128 articles that resulted from this search, 55 were chosen for the review. Results: The findings revealed deficiencies in nutrition competency among health professional students. Students reported lacking adequate nutrition knowledge, basic counseling skills, and confidence to offer nutrition advice to patients. Lack of nutrition knowledge and counseling skills was inversely linked to profession-specific nutrition competencies that could lead to improved patient outcomes. Limitations of nutrition education across several programs were also unveiled. Nutrition interventions enhanced the achievement of Interprofessional Education Collaborative competencies, appreciation of one another’s roles and responsibilities, interprofessional communication skills, and teamwork. The findings suggested that improving students’ nutrition knowledge may result in improved patient outcomes. Conclusions: Nutrition was viewed as a unifying topic-of-interest across health professional programs that increased students’ knowledge and efficacy in providing basic nutrition counseling. Interprofessional nutrition education was regarded as a strategy to surmount the existing limitations of nutrition education and train students to tackle nutrition-related risk factors and prevent nutrition-related diseases.
Praticabilidade
Authors: Filho Abel Escorcio Filho Escorcio
Published: September 2021

Assim como diversas palavras e expressões da nossa língua, a praticabilidade é um vocábulo que comporta uma diversidade de acepções no direito, principalmente no direito tributário. Especificamente nesse ramo do direito, esse instituto tem ganhado ao longo dos últimos anos um maior uso por parte do Fisco, que a pretexto de alcançar uma racionalização e simplificação do sistema tributário, acaba por esvaziar o conteúdo de outros procedimentos, direitos e interpretações jurídicas. O presente estudo buscará analisar os efeitos da praticabilidade no direito tributário, valendo-se, para tanto, da análise da tese do “real adquirente” que envolve o tema do ágio.

Authors: Neves Letícia Borges das
Published: September 2021

O presente artigo tem por objetivo analisar a interpretação que foi dada pelo Supremo Tribunal Federal, no julgamento do Recurso Extraordinário n. 796.376/SC, à imunidade do Imposto sobre Transmissão de Bens Imóveis, incorporados ao patrimônio de pessoa jurídica em realização de capital, prevista na primeira parte do inciso I do § 2º do art. 156 da Constituição Federal de 1988, uma vez que essa decisão suscitou controvérsias acerca do alcance da referida imunidade. O exame do precedente fora realizado através da teoria hermenêutica e dos métodos de interpretação jurídica, os quais pautaram os votos dos ministros na solução do litígio. Para tanto, será oportuno tratar inicialmente da hermenêutica jurídica, enquanto teoria que estuda a interpretação. Na sequência, serão analisados os principais métodos de interpretação jurídica: literal, histórico, teleológico e sistemático. Por fim, examinar--se-ão algumas questões relevantes advindas da interpretação do precedente analisado, em virtude de uma aparente mudança de entendimento da Suprema Corte no tocante à imunidade na integralização do capital subscrito por meio de bens imóveis.

Authors: Faganello Rafael Albertoni
Published: September 2021

Buscou-se nesse artigo fornecer subsídios de melhor eficiência na arrecadação tributária. Nesse sentido, desenvolveu-se a possibilidade jurídica da delegação onerosa para cobrança de créditos tributários de pequena monta já consolidados. Usou-se como base o princípio da eficiência como limitador da indisponibilidade e/ou inalienabilidade da propriedade pública, concretizada aqui na certidão de dívida ativa (CDA), desde que os créditos tributários consolidados que compõem cada CDA não sejam executados pelo detentor de sua propriedade (Fisco) em razão do custo-benefício de seu valor envolvido (até R$ 20.000,00 segundo a vigente portaria MF n. 75/2012).
