Analysis and comparison of Bayesian methods for type A uncertainty evaluation with prior knowledge
Authors: Lira Ignacio
Published: March 2023

If a number of observations about a certain quantity may be assumed independent, drawn from a Gaussian distribution, Supplement 1 to the GUM recommends that the standard uncertainty associated with the quantity be obtained by a formula that is applied to more than three observations. Various articles have recently appeared proposing Bayesian methods to surmount this limitation. Some of these methods, which require prior knowledge about the quantity, are reviewed in this article.

Published: March 2023

The Vygozero Reservoir has the status of a reservoir of republican subordination, and fishing there is carried out mainly by fishermen of the Segezha region of the Republic of Karelia. The Vygozero Reservoir contributes 3-7% to the total volume of fish catch in Karelia and occupies 5–6 place in terms of catch among 12 fishing reservoirs of the Republic of Karelia. In this regard, the problem of monitoring the populations of valuable commercial fish species of the Vygozero Reservoir is urgent at the present stage. First of all, zander and whitefish are among species with TAC (total allowable catch) in the Vygozero Reservoir. There are given the results of works carried out within the framework of the state projects and economic contractual topics of the North Research Institute of Fishery under Petrozavodsk State University, Northern Water Problems Institute of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences for assessing the stock and production of whitefish and zander in the Vygozero (Vygozero-Onda) Reservoir. Whitefish should be taken into the commercial operation from the age of 5+, and zander from the age of 7+ and older. The performed calculations of the stock size based on the data of 2005–2020 allow the TAC volume for whitefish today to be up to 3 tons, or 20.8% of the commercial stock amount (with the maximum norm of 23.4%), zander 18 tons, or 17.7% of the stock (norm = 18.6%). As a result of the calculations and studies, recommendations were made for the rational use of whitefish and zander in the Vygozero Reservoir at the present stage.

Authors: Tekanova Elena Valentinovna , Kalinkina Nataliia Mikhailovna , Smirnova Valeria Sergeevna
Published: March 2023

Phytoplankton photosynthesis in Lake Onego was measured in 1989-2006. An attempt was made to calculate photosynthesis by daily assimilation numbers and chlorophyll a concentration measured in 2007-2021 to supple-ment data on the primary production. Daily assimilation numbers were calculated by simultaneously measured photosynthesis and chlorophyll in 1989-2006 for different areas and seasons of a limnically complex water body. A comparative statistical analysis of the size-structural characteristics of phytoplankton in 1989-2006 and 2007-2021 was performed to assess the possibility of using the obtained assimilation numbers to restore photosynthesis values. Comparison of the average cell volume for the phytocenosis and the ratio of diatoms and smaller non-diatoms showed their similarity in both periods in the main water area of the lake. Only in the central sector of Kondopoga Bay, which has been influenced by biogenic loads from the trout farms since the 2000s, the average cell volume decreased significantly and the proportion of diatom plankton also decreased. Photosynthesis was not calculated for this sector. The calculated assimilation numbers were similar for almost the entire water area of the lake. The maximum daily values were observed in summer with medians from 11.8 to 18.4 µg C/µg Chl in different parts of the water body. In Kondopoga Bay, which during both study periods was experiencing a biogenic load of wastewater from the pulp and paper mill, their median values in summer reached 40.3 and 29.6 µg C/µg Chl day–1 in the top and open parts, respectively. It was possible to restore 197 values of photosynthesis by chlorophyll a measured in 2007-2021and by the calculated assimilation numbers in the surface water layer of different areas in Lake Onego in different seasons.

Published: March 2023

The ear, as an organ of hearing, can be damaged or have problems during intrauterine development. As a result, hearing is impaired, which negatively affects speech, mental development and the communication process in children. Schoolchildren with special educational needs (SEN), suffer not only from general speech disorders and phonetic speech disorders but are mainly related to the damage of the higher cortical centers of the brain responsible for speech, as well as to hearing problems. The latter can be alleviated by using hearing aids at the early stage or by performing a cochlear implantation process. However, a question suggests itself. Do families that have children with such problems cope with their social and financial problems? An issue requiring public attention and care and is directly related to the improvement of education quality.

Social, Economic, and Environmental Aspects in Subak Sembung as Ecotourism, Peguyangan Village, North Denpasar District, Bali

Bali is part of the Indonesian territory that relies on the agricultural sector to meet the needs of the community as well as to support its tourism activities. Subak Sembung has been conserved and inaugurated as an ecotourism site in 2014 by the Denpasar City Government. Currently, Subak Sembung has 103 hectares of land and it has the largest green land in the city center, then known as the lungs of Denpasar City. This research is conducted with the aim of analyzing the social, economic, and environmental aspects in Subak Sembung as ecotourism in Peguyangan Village, North Denpasar District, Bali. The sample size is 35 people and generated by using simple random sampling. The data analysis method used is the descriptive qualitative analysis. The results shows that Subak Sembung as ecotourism in terms of social aspects measured from three indicators, namely the high level of knowledge of farmers about ecotourism, positive responses of farmers to ecotourism, and high skills of farmers in farming. The economic aspect measured in terms of economic benefits is relatively high, and the environmental aspect can be said to be good in terms of natural resource conservation is fairly high and facilities in the form of counseling and coaching are carried out quite often.

Plastic waste in the oceans is a global problem which becomes a primary concern. The oceans become the final waste shelter that comes from land. Rivers essentially distribute plastic waste from the ground to the sea. Still, few studies currently examine waste distribution on riverbanks, especially rivers that discharge into the Bali Strait. This study aimed to determine the distribution of plastic waste along rivers in Bali Island that discharge into Bali Strait. Waste data was collected using the method developed by CSIRO (Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation). The data collected was used to generate prediction models with GAM to predict the distribution of plastic waste on riverbanks. The GAM method was chosen because it can accommodate non-linear influences; furthermore, GAM uses the smooth function to substitute details of parametric relationships on covariates so that it would give a good prediction. The distribution of plastic waste in 30 rivers was predicted. This research data showed that the most common waste found was a plastic waste at 90%, and non-plastic waste was found at 10%. Based on the prediction, most of the distribution of plastic waste along these 30 rivers had a relative concentration of plastic waste of about 0-20%. The highest concentration of plastic waste was found on the riverbanks of Selanbawak village, Pekutatan village, Pulukan village, Pendem village, and Tuwed village, with 80-100%. The riverbanks close to markets and tourism destinations and the number of populations with a strong relationship with smooth contributions caused relatively high plastic waste concentration. The prediction of the total plastic waste leakage at the riverbanks of the 30 rivers is 3,438,472 pieces, which this plastic waste will pollute Bali Strait.

Suluban is one of the coastal tourist attractions, categorized as one of the best surfing locations in the world by CNN Travel. Suluban, better known by international travelers as Uluwatu, is located in Pecatu Village, District of South Kuta, Badung regency. This study aimed to determine the impact of the development of surfing in an environmentally and socio-cultural local community in Suluban. This study was designed using a quantitative approach, where the study was conducted in Suluban beach. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 63 local communities in Suluban. The data were analyzed quantitatively using the Likert scale. The impact of the development of surfing can be seen from the two variables, environment, and socio-cultural variables. Each variable can be divided into negative impact (load) and positive impact (benefit). From these results, the respondents did not expressly state that they feel a negative impact both on the environment and socio-cultural. As for the variables that positively impact the environment and socio-cultural, respondents said they think about it. This illustrates that local communities in the region perceive, they argue if during the development of surfing in Suluban beach has several positive impacts (benefits) both in terms of socio-cultural and environmental; as to the negative effects (load), they are more neutral inclined to think that indicates there may be other factors not examined in this study in addition to the development of surfing that cause a negative impact and the socio-cultural environment in the region. The dominant impact is felt on the public perception of the local variable negative impact environment is declining agricultural area, while in the variable positive impact (benefit) environment is increasing the physical preservation of the coastal area. Furthermore, the perceived dominant impact on public perception of local communities in the variable negative impact is the change in the socio-cultural livelihood. In contrast, the variable positive impact (benefit) is the increasing socio-cultural foreign language skills.
Deciding Desertion Cases in Absentia: Trials and Implications
Authors: Wibowo Dava Prawira
Published: March 2023

Military members are bound by strict laws and regulations, ensuring that all actions must align with the established legal frameworks. One of the most critical offenses within the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) is desertion, given its significant impact on the integrity of the troops. This necessitates specific regulations for swift resolution and legal certainty. In cases where military personnel accused of desertion cannot be located, the judicial approach is particularly crucial. Employing a normative juridical method involves analyzing and interpreting legal principles and theoretical matters related to the crime, supported by an empirical juridical method that gathers insights from criminal law experts and law enforcement to reinforce the normative data. If the accused remains absent, the process to try the crime of desertion can proceed in absentia, according to Law No. 31 of 1997 concerning Military Justice, Article 143, which allows for a trial if the defendant does not appear by the time of the third summons. This provision ensures that proceedings can continue, upholding necessary discipline within the military. Judges deciding on cases of desertion consider three main aspects: juridical, based on formal statutory provisions; sociological, considering the social background of the defendant and the broader societal impact; and philosophical, focusing on ensuring that the punishment serves as a deterrent and upholds military discipline, aiming for a fair and just outcome. This comprehensive approach helps the military judicial system effectively address desertion, maintaining troop integrity and ensuring justice is served, even in the defendant's absence.
Seasonal occurrence and biological parameters of Aedes albopictus (Skuse) (Diptera: Culicidae) as management tactics in Faisalabad, Punjab, Pakistan
Authors: Sarwar Muhammad , RASOOL Bilal
Published: March 2023

Understanding the seasonal prevalence and biological parameters of mosquito Aedes albopictus (Skuse) are indispensable for population estimates, efficient vector control and dengue prevention tactics. The sampling of Ae. albopictus was completed through the collection of eggs, larvae, pupae and adults throughout the study seasons by use of nets and ovitraps at least once a week. Occurrence of Ae. albopictus was distinguished heterogeneously and populations were observed maximum in October post-monsoon season. The populations increased progressively from January-May and sharply deteriorated in June-July and September-November months revealing the highest breeding. However, the lowest density was observed during December-February. Growth of Ae. albopictus evaluated under standardized laboratory conditions with the provision of Balb/C mice as blood meal to adult mosquitoes, exhibited eggs hatching, and first, second, third and fourth instar larvae development in 3, 1.3, 1.2, 1.7 and 2.8 days, respectively. Nevertheless, pupation development, adult emergence, total life duration from egg hatching to adult emergence, male and female life spans persisted for 7, 3, 20, 25 and 30 days, respectively. Aedes albopictus accounted for 1% density of other mosquito genera collected (Culex and Anopheles), while, Aedes aegypti (L) was 3% abundant and indicated that both Aedes species had coexistence.

Biological control (BC) can occur naturally (without human intervention), or by being applied intentionally when it is the result of research and the scientific selection of antagonists. It consists of the reduction in the population density of one species through the action of another. Although the adoption of applied BC in Argentina started at the beginning of the 20th century, it is still a developing discipline. In this context, we designed an online questionnaire consisting of 15 questions to assess the current status of pest BC and the social, economic and demographic aspects of the discipline in the country. We found that 122 people are currently working on BC, of which 62% are women. Although the survey revealed people working on BC in 17 jurisdictions of the country, most of the work is carried out in Buenos Aires, and 82% work in the public sector. Biological control of arthropod pests accounts for 74% of BC projects, which are mainly conducted through classical BC. Despite the fact there is an increase in the number of people working in BC, we offer a series of recommendations aimed at further favoring the growth of the discipline in the country.

Objetivos: compreender as dificuldades enfrentadas pelos profissionais de saúde para o atendimento de casos de urgências/emergências em unidades básica de saúde e identificar as proposições de resolubilidade. Métodos: Pesquisa qualitativa, realizada com dez profissionais de saúde, em uma unidade básica de saúde do interior paulista. As entrevistas foram transcritas e analisadas utilizando-se a estratégia metodológica do Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo. Resultados: As dificuldades foram atreladas a fatores como despreparo da equipe, falta de infraestrutura, insumos e equipamentos, carência de profissional médico, pouca aproximação das unidades básicas de saúde com o setor de emergência hospitalar e escasso investimento do município para realização desses atendimentos. As proposições de melhorias destacaram a necessidade de capacitação dos profissionais de saúde, investimentos em recursos materiais e equipamentos, permanência de médico em período integral no serviço, implantação de protocolos de atendimento e empenho dos gestores. Conclusão: Os discursos evidenciaram que o serviço não tem condições de atender casos de urgência/emergência, em virtude do despreparo da equipe e da falta de recursos humanos e materiais. Além disso, não é prioridade do município oferecer condições mínimas para a realização deste atendimento nas unidades básicas de saúde, para que sejam integrantes da rede de atenção de Atenção às Urgências no Sistema Único de Saúde.

Objetivo: Examinar e mapear as evidências científicas sobre a eficácia do uso de ivermectina e atazanavir no tratamento de COVID-19. Metodologia: Scoping Review, baseado nos procedimentos recomendados pelo Instituto Joanna Briggs. Estabeleceu-se a pergunta norteadora: “Quais são as evidências científicas sobre o uso de ivermectina e atazanavir no tratamento de pacientes com sintomas leves de COVID-19?”. Foram realizadas buscas em seis bases de dados nacionais e internacionais, sobre trabalhos publicados até dezembro de 2022. Dos 357 estudos encontrados, 22 foram selecionados para leitura na íntegra, resultando em uma amostra final de 11 estudos analisados. Resultados: As 11 publicações analisadas foram publicadas de 2020 a 2022 durante período pandêmico, de âmbito nacional e internacional com delineamento de estudos experimentais, do tipo ensaio clínico com randomização. Apenas 03 estudos (25%) testaram o atazanavir como intervenção conjugada a outras drogas, não evidenciando melhorias significativas em relação ao seu uso. Já no tratamento com Ivermectina, dos oito (75%) estudos que a testaram, apenas três (37,5%) recomendaram seu uso e cinco (62,5%) não suportam seu uso para tratamento de COVID-19 leve. O tempo de resolução dos sintomas variou de 8 a 10 dias nos braços tratados com ivermectina e em média 07 dias no tratamento com atazanavir. Não se detectou eventos adversos graves relacionados ao uso das duas drogas. Conclusão: As evidências que recomendavam o uso de ivermectina datam do início do período pandêmico, 2020, mas posteriormente, com a realização de ensaios clínicos robustos e controlados, novas evidências não suportam o uso de ivermectina e atazanavir no tratamento de COVID-19 leve mostrando que não houve diferença no tempo de resolução dos sintomas, na taxa de mortalidade, taxa de internação na UTI e tempo de hospitalização.

A Insuficiência Cardíaca (IC) é uma das principais causas de internação hospitalar no mundo e tem um elevado grau de morbidade e mortalidade, sendo um grave problema de saúde pública. Os lncRNAs (RNAs longo não codificantes), têm funções regulatórias transcricionais e/ou pós transcricionais bem complexas e que ainda não são totalmente claras, mas que podem exercer influência sobre as doenças cardiovasculares, dentre elas a IC. Assim o estudo teve como objetivo identificar na literatura o papel dos lncRNAs na patogênese da IC por meio de uma revisão integrativa com busca sistemática. Foram considerados elegíveis para leitura e composição do estudo 33 artigos e os principais papéis dos lncRNA na IC foram relatados como possíveis marcadores biológicos para diagnóstico e prognóstico da doença devido a sua expressividade na corrente sanguínea. Além disso, os lncRNAs podem estar relacionados à capacidade funcional uma vez que o aumento ou diminuição de sua expressão promove redução da apoptose de células endoteliais, melhora a disfunção cardíaca, distúrbios de contratilidade e dos canais de cálcio em pacientes com IC. Portanto, os lncRNAs parecem estar envolvidos na patogênese e/ou fisiopatologia da IC, podendo ser utilizados como biomarcadores genéticos com sensibilidade e especificidade semelhantes ou superiores aos empregados atualmente no diagnóstico e prognóstico da IC.

Na análise de regressão múltipla de Poisson do estudo transversal, as variáveis sintomas dispépticos, baixos valores no teste Time Up and Go e ter hipertensão foram associadas com a variável queda. No estudo de coorte, a análise reforçou associação entre não ser ex-etilista e ter constipação. Conclusão: Considera-se elevada a prevalência e incidência de quedas entre os idosos avaliados, e ressalta-se a necessidade de identificação de grupos mais susceptíveis a esse desfecho.

Objetivo: analisar o perfil epidemiológico e a tendência da mortalidade infantil por causas evitáveis em Fazenda Rio Grande/PR, de 2011 a 2021. Método: realizou-se um estudo de série temporal com dados obtidos dos Sistemas de Informações de Mortalidade e Nascidos Vivos. As taxas de mortalidade foram calculadas segundo categorias: neonatal precoce; tardia e pós-neonatal; evitáveis e não evitáveis; e reduzíveis por adequada atenção à mãe e neonato, com avaliação de tendência por regressão linear de Prais-Winsten. Resultados: As maiores proporções de óbitos evitáveis, foram por inadequada atenção à mulher no parto (36,5%), à mulher na gestação (26,8%), e ao recém-nascido (16%). Observou-se redução percentual nos coeficientes de óbitos gerais (β = -0,32; IC95% -0,91;0,68) e por causas evitáveis (β = -0,74; IC95% -0,98;0,50), mesmo não havendo significância estatística nos resultados relativos às tendências (p ≥ 0,05). Conclusão: A partir dos resultados obtidos, Constatou-se a necessidade de intervenções voltadas ao cuidado materno-infantil, essencialmente na atenção à mulher no pré-natal e no parto e ao neonato, visto que constituem percentuais expressivos dentre as causas de morte evitáveis. A redução da mortalidade infantil é um desafio global para os serviços de saúde e sociedade como um todo. Sua análise permite incorporar o uso de informação qualificada no planejamento e avaliação de ações e políticas públicas voltadas à saúde materno-infantil, tal como, embasar novos estudos, fundamentais para alicerçar a avaliação crítica da prática em relação aos achados de pesquisa e promover mudanças baseadas em evidências.

Considerado um grave problema em saúde pública, as feridas crônicas são patologias que desafiam o manejo terapêutico e infelizmente acometem milhares de pessoas em todo o mundo. Essa doença apresenta altos índices de morbidade impactando negativamente na qualidade de vida dos seus portadores, além de influenciar negativamente no domínio “bem-estar”, principalmente quando associado aos fatores clínicos podendo estar relacionado há anos de tratamento sem cura da ferida. As feridas crônicas são caracterizadas por demora ou dificuldade nos processos de cicatrização e reparação ordenada da integridade anatômica e funcional da pele durante um período de no mínimo três meses. Porém, algumas lesões permanecem por anos e até décadas sem cicatrizar. Objetivo: O escopo dessa revisão é mostrar o limitado arsenal terapêutico bem como a dificuldade no manejo clínico e dessa forma proporcionar uma reflexão sobre sua fisiopatologia e a urgente necessidade de novas opções e condutas terapêuticas que possam auxiliar no tratamento desses pacientes. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura sobre feridas crônicas, cujo critérios de inclusão foram artigos publicados no período de janeiro de 2005 a fevereiro de 2023. Conclusão: A problemática acerca dessa patologia é vasta, tratando de uma doença de difícil cura, com uma gama de fatores associados que dificultam a cura da lesão, estendendo essa doença a altos índices de morbidade. Novas condutas terapêuticas e novos fármacos, precisam ser desenvolvidos urgentemente. Destaca-se que o uso de probióticos e o emprego da nanotecnologia tem mostrado um grande potencial inovador no tratamento de pacientes portadores de feridas crônicas.
Robust Launch Vehicle Trajectory Optimization with Stage Impact and Heat Flux Constraints

A fast trajectory optimization/guidance algorithm in the presence of path constraints for a multistage launch vehicle is presented in this work. The optimization problem is to maximize the payload to be injected into a geostationary transfer orbit with constraints on argument of perigee, second-stage impact point longitude, and heat flux constraint on the third stage that flies a low-altitude trajectory. These constraints constitute a unique set of equality and inequality constraints as they are contradictory in nature. Most of the gradient-based trajectory optimization schemes require an initial guess close enough to the optimal value for assured convergence. In addition, the rate of convergence deteriorates in the presence of inequality constraints. These issues are addressed by providing a solution to the optimization problem with low sensitivity to the initial guess profiles. A self-starting optimization scheme that can generate initial guess profiles automatically from boundary conditions is the major contribution of this work. The proposed method presented in this paper also gives a methodology for real-time implementation of the optimization scheme in the onboard computer. The sensitivity to initial guess in a gradient-based optimization procedure, in the presence of inequality constraints, is clearly brought out as part of this work by studying the convergence from random sets of initial guess profiles. The real-time implementation of the algorithm is validated with various initial conditions in deterministic as well as Monte Carlo sense to establish the robustness of the algorithm.
