Published: July 2023

The determination of susceptibility to rainfall-induced landslides is crucial in developing a robust Landslide Early Warning System (LEWS). With the potential uncertainty of susceptibility changes in mountain environments due to different precipitation thresholds related to climate change, it becomes important to evaluate these changes. In this study, we employed a machine learning approach (logistic models) to assess susceptibility changes to landslides in the Central Andes. We integrated geomorphological features such as slope and slope curvature, and precipitation data on different days before the landslide. We then split the data into a calibration and validation database in a 50/50% ratio, respectively. The results showed an area under the curve (AUC) performance of over 0.790, indicating the model’s capacity to represent prone-landslide changes based on geomorphological and precipitation antecedents. We further evaluated susceptibility changes using different precipitation scenarios by integrating Intensity/Duration/Frequency (IDF) products based on CHIRPS data. We concluded that this methodology could be implemented as a Rainfall-Induced Landslides Early Warning System (RILEWS) to forecast RIL occurrence zones and constrain precipitation thresholds. Our study estimates that half of the basin area in the study zone showed a 59% landslide probability for a return of two years at four hours. Given the extent and high population in the area, authorities must increase monitoring over unstable slopes or generate landslide early warning at an operational scale to improve risk management. We encourage decision-makers to focus on better understanding and analysing short-duration extreme events, and future urbanization and public infrastructure designs must consider RIL impact.

Authors: Qi Jiarui , Jing Yige , Chen Chao , Zhang Jinfeng
Published: July 2023

This paper uses the finite-volume community ocean model (FVCOM) coupled with the simulating waves nearshore (SWAN) in a wave–current–sediment model to simulate the tidal current field, wave field, and suspended sediment concentration (SSC) field in the sea area near Weifang Port, China. The three-dimensional water-and-sediment model was modified by introducing a sediment-settling-velocity formula that considers the effect of gradation. Next, the SSCs calculated by the original and modified models were compared with the measured data. The SSCs calculated by the modified model were closer to the measured data, as evidenced by the smaller mean relative error and root-mean-square error. The results show that the modified coupled wave–current–sediment model can reasonably describe the hydrodynamic characteristics and sediment movement in the sea area near Weifang Port, and the nearshore SSCs calculated by the modified model were higher than those calculated by the original model.

Published: July 2023

In semi-distributed hydrologic models, it is difficult to account for the impacts of wetlands on hydrologic processes, as they are based on lumped, subbasin-scale wetland concepts. It is a challenge to incorporate the influences of individual small wetlands into watershed-scale models by using lumped parameterization. The objective of this study was to improve watershed-scale hydrologic modeling by taking into account real wetland features during the wetland parameterization. To achieve this objective, a joint modeling framework was proposed to couple a surface delineation algorithm with a semi-distributed hydrologic model and then applied to the Upper Turtle River watershed in North Dakota, USA. The delineation algorithm identified the topographic properties of wetlands, which were further utilized for wetland parameterization. A nonlinear area–storage relationship was determined and used in the estimation of the wetland-related parameters. The results demonstrated that the new joint modeling approach effectively avoided misestimating the wetland-related parameters by accounting for real topographic characteristics (e.g., storage, ponding area, and contributing area) of identified wetlands and their influences, and provided improved modeling of the hydrologic processes in such a wetland-dominated watershed.
Medicalising diagnoses and treatment preferences: a retrospective cohort study of throat-related consultations in electronic primary care records
Authors: Marshall Tom , Taverner Tom , Freidoony Leila
Published: July 2023

Background

Rather than first diagnosing and then deciding on treatment, GPs may intuitively decide on treatment and justify this through choice of diagnosis.

Aim

To investigate the relationship between choice of a medicalising diagnosis and antibiotic treatment for throat-related consultations.

Design & setting

A retrospective cohort study in a large database of UK electronic primary care records between 1 January 2010 and 1 January 2020.

Method

All first throat-related consultations were included, categorised as either pharyngitis/tonsillitis or sore throat. The outcome was any antibiotic prescription on the consultation date. GP-level random effects on prescribing and on diagnosis were estimated in a series of mixed-effects regression models, including age, sex, weekday, month, and clinician characteristics as fixed effects. GPs were grouped into quintiles by antibiotic prescribing propensity, and described the proportion of patients they diagnosed with pharyngitis/tonsillitis or sore throat in each quintile.

Results

The analysis dataset included 393 590 throat-related consultations with 6881 staff. Diagnosis of pharyngitis/tonsillitis was strongly associated with antibiotic prescribing (adjusted odds ratio = 13.41, 95% confidence interval = 12.8 to 14.04). GP random effect accounted for 18% of variation in prescribing and for 26% of variation in diagnosis. GPs in the lowest quintile of antibiotic prescribing propensity diagnosed pharyngitis/tonsillitis on 31% of occasions, compared with 55% in the highest quintile.

Conclusion

There is substantial variation among GPs in diagnosis and treatment of throat-related problems. Preference for a medicalising diagnosis is associated with a preference for antibiotics, suggesting a common propensity to both diagnose and treat.

Published: July 2023

This work aims at constructing a curriculum concerning mechanical energy. The objective of this curriculum is to reconstruct a new one for students aged 13-14. Our project incorporates a constructivist aspect in the organisation and content of the curriculum itself. This work is based on a series of argumentative principles, especially on the attempt of transforming the students representations, as well as on a work which used symbolic systems and the introduction of a «model-sperm». Additionally, we put forward the time-sequence for the introduction of different concepts related to that of energy, using suitable real physical situations. Based on this suggested curriculum, certain teaching activities took place in the classroom, which allowed the evaluation of the validity of this curriculum. The results of this evaluation, which was carried out by giving a pre-and a post-test to 100 students, are also presented in this paper.

Authors: Karges Johannes
Published: July 2023

Ru(II) polypyridine complexes have attracted much attention as anticancer agents because of their unique photophysical, photochemical, and biological properties. Despite their promising therapeutic profile, the vast majority of compounds are associated with poor water solubility and poor cancer selectivity. Among the different strategies employed to overcome these pharmacological limitations, many research efforts have been devoted to the physical or covalent encapsulation of the Ru(II) polypyridine complexes into nanoparticles. This article highlights recent developments in the design, preparation, and physicochemical properties of Ru(II) polypyridine complex-loaded nanoparticles for their potential application in anticancer therapy.

From the end of the Joseon Dynasty, they moved to Primorsky Krai to survive in order to avoid famine and exploitation by bureaucrats, have Russian citizenship, and grow into a supporter of the anti-Japanese movement to seek their own independence They are Korean compatriots who have been forcibly relocated and settled in Central Asia according to Russia's national migration measures. Those who have migrated with Korean Dream in search of their parents or grandparents' homeland are in the blind spot of human rights amid nationality, immigration visa problems, language, economic activities, and socio-cultural difficulties.
This study revealed why they should be treated the same as our people and need support from the government and local governments, identified their lives and human rights difficulties in domestic life, and suggested ways to settle down as part of social integration as citizens and live without discrimination.
A Study of the Bone Arrowheads from Korean Peninsula and Northeast China
Authors:   The hoseo Archaeological Society, Lee Hyeryeong
Published: July 2023

This thesis presents a comprehensive analysis of bone arrowheads discovered in prehistoric and early historic sites in Korean Peninsula and Northeast China. It tries to reanalyze the function of arrowheads that had been thought to be simple replacement of iron arrowheads and to find out the background of their use, the reason for its popularity, and the background of the extinction of bone arrowheads. This paper also compares bone arrowheads of Korean peninsula with those of Northeast China and discusses their similarities and differences.
First of all, their nominal and numeric attributes are analyzed in order to understand their formal characteristics of bone arrowheads from Korea and Northeast China. Bone arrowheads of Korea can be divided by the presence or absence of the tang and can be divided into steptanged/non-step-tanged subtypes. Next, the relationship between the cross section of the bone arrowheads and the raw material was reviewed, and whether the cross section of the bone arrowheads reflects temporality was discussed. The width of most of the bone arrowheads discovered in Korea is below 1.1cm and is narrower than their contemporary stone and iron arrowheads. This difference may be related to their function. Bone arrowheads of Northeast China can be divided by the presence/absence of the tang and can be divided by the shape of their tips. The flat-tip-tanged arrowheads are most numerous subtype and may be related to the local environment of Northeast China where bamboo shaft was difficult to acquire. The width of most of the bone arrowhead discovered in Northeast China is below 1.1cm as in Korea and is narrower than their contemporary stone and iron arrowheads.
Compared to the wide stone and iron arrowheads, the bone arrowheads is suitable for strike vital parts of the game such as heart or lung. The number of arrowheads with triangular cross section increased over time and the total length of bone arrowheads increases over time. This seems to contain an intention to increase penetrative power. The prevalence of the use of bone arrowheads after stone arrowheads is related to the spread of metal tools. It is concluded that bone arrowheads were not replacement of metal ones but improvement over earlier stone arrowheads as major types of arrowheads due to their better efficiency. Finally, by comparing the bone arrowheads of Korea and Northeast China, it is also suggested that environmental factors influenced mostly on the shape of bone arrowheads and cultural factors rather influenced on their prevalent time.

Southside Survey is an ongoing research, design, and advocacyproject that asks how architects can imagine novel density solutions within historic contexts that are reconciling intensedevelopment pressures with the politics of change. Born out of contemporary housing debates in South Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, this project proposes a place-specific densification model through the revival of the “Alley House,” a regional housing type common in the 19th century that was effectively outlawed during the mid-century trend of suburbanization and single-family down-zoning.1

In 1957, Frank Lloyd Wright was commissioned to design the Opera House for Baghdad as part of his Master Plan for the capital of Iraq. The same year, he proposed a design statement- an “Oasis” for Arizona State Capital in Phoenix, Arizona. Although both buildings were never realized, they continue to inspire their respective city. This study compares the two buildings as a case study to disclose the differences and unique similarities of Wright’s modern design approach to eastern culture compared to the western context.
Critically Engaged Civic learning: Graphic Design as a Bridge Between the Classroom and the Local Community
Authors:   University of Detroit Mercy, Bernasconi Claudia
Published: July 2023

This paper discusses outcomes from a collaborative project between the School of Architecture and Community Development at Detroit Mercy and the LIVE6 Alliance, a Detroit non-profit organization focusing on neighborhood revitalization via placemaking and engagement with small businesses. A graduate graphic design course was offered in Winter 2020, and provided an opportunity for architecture students to interact with local community members and business owners to brainstorm ideas about identity, place, and economic development. Through an iterative and open-ended process revolving around frequent conversations and concept proposals, students learned to interpret key identity traits of local businesses, to acknowledge the values they bring to the urban corridor, and applied graphic design knowledge built in the classroom to develop alternative branding design ideas. The pedagogical approach of the course aligns with the frameworks of Critically Engaged Civic Learning (Vincent et al. 2021) and Critical Service learning (Mitchell 2008). Embracing these frameworks in the course helped students understand perspectives of community partners and become more aware of their design agency as co-creators. Forms of co-production and co-authorship were fostered to decolonize the design process, building on authentic relationships and a deeper understanding of branding as a defining way of expressing values of individuals, communities and places. At the urban scale, the loosely coordinated collective work of all teams along the corridor, spurred students to understand graphic design as an urban activator and as an element of placemaking at the scale of the neighborhood. The project was interrupted during online and hybrid learning. This hiatus provided time to reflect on lessons learned, including learning outcomes for students and community perceptions, and directions for future collaborations with LIVE6 Alliance towards a student learning that is centered around the search for a co-constructed design agency.

The strengths and limitations of using quantitative data to inform school inspections
Authors: Jerrim John , John Alex
Published: July 2023

School inspections are a common feature of many education systems. These typically involve a team of experienced education professionals evaluating the school’s overall effectiveness. They may also be informed by various pieces of quantitative background data available. It is widely recognised that there are pros and cons of using such quantitative information as part of the inspection process, though these have rarely been succinctly set out. This paper seeks to fill this gap by presenting arguments both for and against the use of quantitative data in informing school inspections. We argue that while quantitative data provides objective information about important outcomes, its usefulness is limited somewhat by a range of factors including missing data, small sample sizes, the creation of perverse incentives and the fact that most readily available measures capture aspects other than school quality. We conclude by discussing how Ofsted currently makes the trade-off between these pros and cons, thereby encouraging further debate about this important issue.

Phishing attacks have risen by 209% in the last 10 years according to the Anti Phishing Working Group (APWG) statistics [19]. Machine learning is commonly used to detect phishing attacks. Researchers have traditionally judged phishing detection models with either accuracy or F1-scores, however in this paper we argue that a single metric alone will never correlate to a successful deployment of machine learning phishing detection model. This is because every machine learning model will have an inherent trade-off between it’s False Positive Rate (FPR) and False Negative Rate (FNR). Tuning the trade-off is important since a higher or lower FPR/FNR will impact the user acceptance rate of any deployment of a phishing detection model. When models have high FPR, they tend to block users from accessing legitimate webpages, whereas a model with a high FNR will allow the users to inadvertently access phishing webpages. Either one of these extremes may cause a user base to either complain (due to blocked pages) or fall victim to phishing attacks. Depending on the security needs of a deployment (secure vs relaxed setting) phishing detection models should be tuned accordingly. In this paper, we demonstrate two effective techniques to tune the trade-off between FPR and FNR: varying the class distribution of the training data and adjusting the probabilistic prediction threshold. We demonstrate both techniques using a data set of 50,000 phishing and 50,000 legitimate sites to perform all experiments using three common machine learning algorithms for example, Random Forest, Logistic Regression, and Neural Networks. Using our techniques we are able to regulate a model’s FPR/FNR. We observed that among the three algorithms we used, Neural Networks performed best; resulting in an higher F1-score of 0.98 with corresponding FPR/FNR values of 0.0003 and 0.0198 respectively.

Published: July 2023

Oncological pathology and the management of patient with cancer are real challenges in cardiology practice. Unpredictable situations triggered by this pathology, as well as adverse reactions of oncological therapy on the cardiovascular system, are increasing. A 71-year-old female patient who was known with HER2-positive breast cancer, with sectorial mastectomy and treated with chemo-radio-immunotherapy in 2018, then diagnosed with liver metastases and ulcerated gastric adenocarcinoma in May 2022, was referred to the Cardiology Clinic for chest pain and dyspnea. On the ECG, ST-segment depression was seen in the infero-lateral territory. Positive myocardial necrosis enzymes were documented, and also moderate microcytic hypochromic anemia. The current clinical, electrical, and biological picture was suggestive for acute coronary syndrome. It should be mentioned that the patient has been on monoclonal antibody therapy with Trastuzumab, recently discontinued after echocardiographic evaluation where decreased systolic performance was noted. Considering all the particular aspects of this case, as cardiotoxicity of oncological therapy, acute coronary event and anemic syndrome, multidisciplinary management is required, with adjustment of cardiovascular therapy and cancer treatment.

Automated Emotion Recognition Employing Wearable ECG Sensor and Deep-Learning
Authors: Sweeney-Fanelli Timothy , Imtiaz Masudul
Published: July 2023

Automated Emotion Recognition (AER) is the process of programatically identifying and classifying affective responses to stimuli through the analysis of physiological signals. AER has applications in interpersonal communications via digital mediums, human-computer interactions, third-party monitoring and surveillance, personal health and wellness, and in physical and mental health treatment settings. Prior work largely relies on equipment that is most easily used in a laboratory environment. Wearable physiological sensors are now commonly found in smartwatches and fitness bands, opening the door to applications of AER in everyday life. In this paper, we demonstrate automated emotion recognition (AER) using deep learning with convolution neural networks (CNN) for automated feature extraction from ECG signals obtained using commercially available wearable ECG sensors. We utilize a novel approach to automated feature extraction relying on temporal CNN to resolve the time-dependent nature of the biomedical signal data. We achieve 96.2% accuracy in classifying emotional responses into the appropriate quadrant of the arousal / valence space.

The greatest American writer Eugene O'Neill (1888- 1953) achieved a recognizable place among the English and American dramatists through the stylistic features of his dramatic language . This study investigates O'Neill's way of handling dramatic language, in Hairy Ape ,( the use of grammar from the settled norms in play writing) . It endeavors to show how  O'Neill manipulates his character's dialogue and the effects of this manipulation .The problem is related to what extent O'Neill's use of language deviates from the linguistic norm , and the levels   of linguistic deviation in his style.                                                                The study aims to analyze the types of grammatical deviation in O'Neill's 'Hairy Ape'. Moreover, it attempts to justify the reasons behind these deviations (and to support some critical  points of view concerning O'Neill's and style in using grammatical deviations).                     .                                                              Deviation as a linguistic phenomenon has an important effect on the readers (and hearers ), if a part of a poem is deviant it becomes especially , noticeable , or perceptually prominent ( Short, 1969 : 11 ) .  Out of the stylistic analysis ,it has been found out that the writer uses a language deviated from the literary convention or everyday speech(norm). He uses different types of linguistic deviations to achieve his purposes .

The lack of interest in student learning can occur, one of which is because the teacher lacks variety in the use of media in the learning process in the classroom. This can happen because of the lack of knowledge about various media that can be used in learning. This study aims to describe the results of the application of e-comic media to social arithmetic material, and to determine the influence of the media on junior high school students' learning interest. This study uses a quantitative approach with the type of research that is pre-experimental with a one group pre test-post test design, which consists of the independent variable (e-comic social arithmetic material) and the dependent variable (student learning interest). The research sample was 43 students who had received social arithmetic material at SMP LKIA Pontianak. The data collection instrument is a questionnaire. Data were analyzed by descriptive analysis and inferential analysis. Based on the results of student responses, it was found that the application of e-comic media for social arithmetic material was classified as very good and the results of the hypothesis test stated that there was an effect of using e-comic media for social arithmetic material on students’ learning interest at SMP LKIA Pontianak.

The objective of this study was to probe the effect of comprehensive nutritional nursing on elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. To this end, a total of 82 elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were randomly divided equally into control (receiving conventional treatment) and nursing intervention (receiving conventional treatment and dietary nursing intervention) groups. The body mass index, forced expiratory volume in one second/forced vital capacity, plasma albumin, prealbumin, and hemoglobin levels in the observation group were higher in comparison with the control group. However, the self-rating anxiety scale and self-rating depression scale scores in the observation group were diminished compared to the control group. The scores of psychological, physiological, environmental, and social relations in the observation group were higher relative to the control group. The nursing satisfaction in the observation group was elevated compared to the control group. In conclusion, comprehensive nutritional nursing interventions can improve nutritional status, lung function, and quality of life in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Global warming that triggers climate change, which has become a major issue in the world today, is the result of an increase in the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Household waste, 60% of which is organic waste, contributes significantly to CO2 and methane emissions. Therefore, waste management (reduce and reuse) will contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. One way to use organic waste is to convert fruit and vegetable waste into eco-enzyme. Eco-enzyme produced from the fermentation of household waste is multi-purpose liquid, which can be used for environmental improvement such as air purifiers and public water purifiers and for household purposes as fertilizers and plant repellents, drain cleaners, external medicine and other various uses. This community service activity aims to socialize eco-enzyme through extension education and training on its manufacture. The extension education which was accompanied by the practice of making eco-enzymes succeeded in increasing the knowledge of participants from close to zero to a value of 71 – 89 in the range of 0 – 100. The use of eco-enzymes resulting from the training was mainly for agriculture (yard plants) and household purposes, while the use for environmental quality enhancement was in the lowest order.
Psychologická příprava na výslech

Výslech je jednou ze základních metod kriminalistické taktiky, zároveň se jedná také o významný důkazní prostředek. Na základě výslechu jako důkazního prostředku jsou získávány informace od osoby, která svými smysly vnímala kriminalisticky relevantní událost a tyto získané informace (výpověď osoby) mohou mít v následujícím trestním řízení povahu důkazu. Mimo jiné z tohoto důvodu je potřeba, aby byl výslech proveden co nejkvalitněji, neboť pokud v jeho průběhu dojde určitým pochybením, tato lze později již jen těžko napravit. Proto je významná příprava výslechu, kdy se vyslýchající zaměří především na možné kritické body v průběhu výslechu. Náš článek bude věnován především psychologické přípravě na výslech, která spočívá zejména ve vnitřní přípravě vyslýchajícího. Do této problematiky se pokusíme zapracovat i poznatky získané při činnosti v rámci policejního orgánu.
Terorismus a možné souvislosti s válkou

Současný terorismus symbolizuje krutou realitu světa. Realitu, která přináší újmu na životech, zdraví a nesmírné škody majetkové i politické. V minulosti však terorismu nebyla věnována pozornost, kterou by si zasluhoval. Vždy šlo o konstatování, které terorismus považovalo za sice společensky mimořádně závažnou kriminalitu, která však neznamená zásadní ohrožení společenského vývoje či ohrožení států. V zásadě byl terorismus považován za běžnou kriminalitu. Mezinárodní terorismus, jako zásadní bezpečnostní riziko začal být vnímán až po ukončení studené války a rozpadu bipolárního světa. Teprve v průběhu devadesátých let 20. století, kdy bylo možné s velkou pravděpodobností vyloučit hrozbu nové světové války, se pozornost světa začala obracet k jiným rizikům. Problematika terorismu není dosud komplexně a podrobně zpracována. Výzkum terorismu se stal multidisciplinárním objektem, který naráží na řadu problémů např. nedostatečné teoretické zázemí, chybějící obecně uznávané definování terorismu a souvisejících jevů, exaktní typologie, nízká míra hodnověrných faktografických údajů a další. Svoji negativní roli sehrávají sdělovací prostředky (zavádějící či zaujaté komentáře), dezinformační operace a propagandistické informace zpravodajských služeb, ale také komentáře politiků či poměrně časté zpolitizování vědeckých diskuzí. Poznatky k terorismu zde uvedené, mohou poskytovat určitá východiska a zdroje informací pro další výzkumy a poznání podobného druhu. Získané poznatky jsou zpracovány ve formě doporučení a nabízejí určité teoretické zevšeobecnění s možnou adekvátní platností a využitelností v praxi. Cílem vědeckého zkoumání terorismu by mělo být tento fenomén přesně vymezit, vnitřně jej rozčlenit podle stejných kriterií, objasnit příčiny, podmínky a důsledky jeho existence a vymezit a rozdělit postupy, které vedou k jeho potlačení, a zhodnotit jejich efektivitu.
