La salud mental es el principal foco de estudio del psicólogo desde las diferentes áreas, como la educativa, organizacional, clínica, jurídica y social. Dando solución a las diferentes problemáticas sociales a partir del diseño e innovación de programas de prevención, promoción e intervención desde la investigación siendo un elemento fundamental en las Ciencias Humanas; por lo tanto, el libro Fronteras y Salud Mental presenta los resultados de investigaciones a nivel regional y nacional. El libro hace mayor énfasis a una de las principales problemáticas de Colombia, como es el conflicto armado desde diferentes perspectivas de la psicología que llevan al lector a profundizar en el rol del psicólogo en la intervención de las víctimas del conflicto. El libro se divide en seis capítulos en el que profundiza en el estudio exhaustivo del duelo en la niñez a causa de la desaparición forzada de sus padres, convivencia escolar y resolución de conflictos en la escuela, los imaginarios de paz en víctimas del conflicto armado, acompañamiento psicosocial a sobrevivientes, el perfil psicológico en deportistas y las emociones y sentimientos de niños frente al divorcio. Los anteriores escenarios recobran importancia en el contexto fronterizo puesto que las condiciones de migración inciden en el tejido social siendo este último el contexto donde todas las manifestaciones que afectan la salud mental tienen una repercusión. El objetivo de esta obra es enseñar los resultados de las investigaciones que ayuden al lector a comprender diferentes tipos de conflictos en cada uno de los subsistemas donde el individuo se desarrolló desde un enfoque de la psicología.

Dadas las nefastas cifras entorno a la calidad del medioambiente y las preocupaciones expuestas frente a su conservación, se busca desarrollar claridades desde una postura jurídica, que permiten reconocer al medio como potencia sujeto de derechos desde la perspectiva de la bioética, ampliando en este sentido las posibilidades de protección. El medioambiente como ser vivo, del cual el ser humano hace parte, sobre el cual se materializa la justicia social de rol, al concebirle como minoría que requiere, los documentos que se presentan a continuación derivan de ejercicios investigativos que desde la doctrina jurídica pretenden justificar las posturas del medioambiente como sujeto de derecho: evolucionando jurídicamente desde el antropocentrismo, hasta el ecocentrismo como evidencias claras de una conciencia ecología que exige posicionamiento. Como establece la carta de la tierra, el hombre es un ser parte del medioambiente, y si bien debemos garantizarle su calidad de vida, con mayor razón se debe asegurar protección al que provee dicho bienestar, y así lograr un desarrollo sostenible.

Authors: Sandhu KK , Vashishat N , Sidhu A
Published: August 2022

Nanotechnology has emerged as promising field in insect pest management. Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus) a well-known vector of dengue, chikungunya, and dengue haemorrhagic fever has no commercial management practice for their eradication at the larval stage. In the present study, copper sulphide one of the most detoxified form of copper with biopotential properties was synthesised by standard methodology using sonochemical irradiation method and was evaluated for their larvicidal potential against Ae. aegypti. Treated larvae were observed for various morphological changes as compared to control. Larvae were most susceptible to CuSNPs at 7 ppm showing 100% mortality within 24 h. LC50 and LC90 values calculated with the help of POLO software were 4.42 and 5.73 ppm. The epithelium layer of treated larvae was damaged as compared to control. Remarkable results of copper sulphide nanoformulations at low dosage against Ae. aegypti larvae advocates their further exploration for vector control programmes.

Stability of a Leslie-Gower type predator-prey model with a strong Allee effect with delay
Authors:   Facultad de Ciencias Matemáticas, Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Av. Carlos Germán Amezaga 375, Cercado de Lima, Perú., López-Cruz Roxana
Published: August 2022

In this paper, a modified Leslie-Gower type predator-prey model introducing in prey population growth a delayed strong Allee effect is studied. The Leslie-Gower model with Allee effect has none, one or two positive equilibrium points but the incorporation of a time delay in the growth rate destabilizes the system, breaking the stability when the delay cross a critical point. The existence of a Hopf bifurcation is studied in detail and the numerical simulations confirm the theoretical results showing the different scenarios. We present biological interpretations for species prey-predator type.
Existence of solution of a distributional problem for a generalized Schrödinger equation
Authors:   Facultad de Ciencias Matemáticas, Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Av. Venezuela S/N Lima 01, Lima, Perú., Santiago Ayala Yolanda
Published: August 2022

In this article, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the homogeneous generalized Schrödinger equation of order m in the periodic distributional space P0, where m is an even number not a multiple of four. Furthermore, we prove that the solution depends continuously respect to the initial data in P0. Introducing a family of weakly continuous operators, we prove that this family is a group in P0. Then, with this family of operators, we get a fine version of the existence and dependency continuous theorem obtained. Finally, we give the conclusions and remarks derived from this study.

A theorem about linear rank inequalities that depend on the characteristic of the finite field
Authors:   Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Colombia., Peña-Macias Victor
Published: August 2022

A linear rank inequality is a linear inequality that holds by dimensions of vector spaces over any finite field. A characteristic-dependent linear rank inequality is also a linear inequality that involves dimensions of vector spaces but this holds over finite fields of determined characteristics, and does not in general hold over other characteristics. In this paper, using as guide binary matrices whose ranks depend on the finite field where they are defined, we show a theorem which explicitly produces characteristic-dependent linear rank inequalities; this theorem generalizes results previously obtained in the literature.

The interactions between predators and their prey in the real world are usually affected by diverse ecological phenomena acting on both the prey and the predators. Collaboration or cooperation between predators is one of those behaviors, which has received less attention from researchers than competition among consumers. These contacts are important aspects of the dynamics of food chains and trophic webs. In this work, we will study the influence of collaboration or cooperation (hunting cooperation) between predators to consume (or capture) their favorite prey, which are affected by an effect Allee weak. We extend the results obtained in a previously published model, considering only collaboration between predators and in which the Allee effect is absent.

PERIODIZATION OF THE FORMATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE RIGHT TO LIBERTY AND PERSONAL INVIOLABILITY: SUBSTANTIATION OF SCIENTIFIC APPROACH
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Pelekh Z.
Published: August 2022

The purpose of the article is to substantiate the scientific approach regarding periodization of the formation and development of the right to liberty and personal inviolability. To achieve the purpose of the article, the author used general and special methods of scientific cognition including historical and legal, comparative and legal analyses, systematization, classification, deduction, induction, synthesis, etc. The author of the article has presented the main historical facts, which are associated with the formation and development of the right to liberty and personal inviolability in the legal literature. The analysis of scientific sources assisted to formulate the main scientific approaches used by scholars in determining the periodization of the development of the right to liberty and personal inviolability. The expediency of allocating certain historical periods of the development of this right has been clarified. The author has formulated the individual point of view on the periodization of the formation and development of the right to liberty and personal inviolability. In the conclusions four stages of the formation and development of the right to liberty and personal inviolability were singled out, namely: 1) the origin of the right to liberty and personal inviolability in the form of liberties for certain segments of the population, which lasted in ancient times, the Middle Ages and till the late ХVIII century; 2) the transformation of liberties for certain segments of the population into a fundamental, inalienable and natural human right, which endowed all people without any exception. This stage lasted from the late ХVIII century, when the process of recognition and constitutional consolidation of the right to liberty and personal inviolability for all citizens in France was launched, to the late 30s of the XX century, when that tendency became characteristic for Ukraine and the USSR; 3) the development of legal regulation of the right to liberty and personal inviolability in national regulatory legal acts (mainly criminal, criminal and procedural) and international legal documents, which lasted from the late 1930s up to 1991; 4) the improvement of legal guaranteeing of the right to liberty and personal inviolability, that can be characterized as modern and has been lasting since Ukraine's independence.
PRINCIPLE OF THE RIGHT TO BE HEARD IN CIVIL PROCEDURE: ELI/UNIDROIT MODEL EUROPEAN RULES OF CIVIL PROCEDURE, CASE LAW OF THE ECTHR AND NATIONAL CONTEXT
Authors:   Yaroslav Mudryi National Law University, Tsuvina T.
Published: August 2022

The article addresses the right to be heard as one of the new principles of civil procedure being analyzed through the prism of the provisions of the ELI/UNIDROIT Model European Rules of Civil Procedure and para. 1 of art. 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms and the practice of the European Court of Human Rights. The paper highlights the problems of implementation of this principle at the national level. Within the framework of the ELI/UNIDROIT Model European Rules of Civil Procedure, the principle of the right to be heard includes: a) a fair opportunity to present claim and defense in court (Rule 11); b) the reasoned judgments, relied on the basis of the case file and the legal issues which the parties were able to comment on (Rule 12); c) the prohibition on the court communicating with a party in the absence of other party (Rule 13). Based on the analysis of the ELI / UNIDROIT Model European Rules of Civil Procedure and the case law of the ECtHR, the author advocates the view, according to which, the implementation of the principle of the right to be heard calls for the existence of a number of procedural guarantees of 'fair hearing' (para. 1 art. 6 of the ECHR). It is concluded that in modern conditions the principle of the right to be heard in its legal content is reduced to the requirement to provide a party to the proceedings the opportunity to bring to court their claims and objections, to effectively present their legal position before the court on equal terms with those given to the other party, as well as to obtain a reasoned court judgment. The implementation of this principle is associated with three groups of guarantees: a) guarantees that are prerequisites for the exercise of the right to be heard (proper notification of the person about the date, time and place of the court hearing); b) guarantees that constitute the core of the right to be heard and are implemented during the trial (oral hearing; opportunity to participate in the proceedings; the principle of 'equality of arms' and adversarial process); c) guarantees that are implemented after consideration of the case (a reasoned court judgment).

Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Karmaza O.
Published: August 2022

The article reveals the meaning of the concept of "protection of rights in civil proceedings during martial law" and identifies the features of civil proceedings in martial law. The legal assessment of normative acts, which are recommendatory and regulate the organizational work of the court and the trial in martial law, is given. The application of the norms of the Civil Procedure Code of Ukraine under martial law, as well as the norms of the Law of Ukraine "On Ensuring the Rights and Freedoms of Citizens and the Legal Regime in the Temporarily Occupied Territory of Ukraine" has been studied. It is proved that the mechanism of ensuring rights in civil proceedings in case of martial law has features defined by the Constitution and the Law of Ukraine "On the legal regime of martial law". The problems of civil proceedings, which arose due to the aggression of the Russian Federation on the territory of Ukraine, are revealed. The author's vision of modification (change) of rights to defense in court is offered. Judicial practice on compensation for damage caused by the aggression of the Russian Federation on the territory of Ukraine is considered. The object of the study is composed of civil-procedural relations arising in connection with the protection of violated, unrecognized or disputed rights, freedoms or interests of individuals, rights and interests of legal entities, the interests of the state in civil proceedings, as well as martial law on the territory of Ukraine. The methodological basis of the study encloses the philosophical and legal principles of knowledge of social phenomena, particularly those related to the protection as well as protection and restoration of the rights of persons (citizens and legal entities) in civil proceedings. Dialectical, system-structural, normative-logical, sociological, and comparative-legal methods of cognition are applied. According to the results of the study, it is proposed to improve the rules of civil procedural legislation of Ukraine.
Detection of Slow Slip Events Using Wavelet Analysis of GNSS Recordings
Authors: Ducellier Ariane , Creager Kenneth C. , Schmidt David A.
Published: August 2022

At many places, tectonic tremor is observed in relation to slow slip and can be used as a proxy to study slow slip events of moderate magnitude in which surface deformation is hidden in Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) noise. However, in subduction zones in which no clear relationship between tremor and slow slip occurrence is observed, these methods cannot be applied, and we need other methods to be able to better detect and quantify slow slip. Wavelets methods such as the Discrete Wavelet Transform and the Maximal Overlap Discrete Wavelet Transform (MODWT) are mathematical tools for analyzing time series simultaneously in the time and the frequency domains by observing how weighted differences of a time series vary from one period to the next. In this article, we use wavelet methods to analyze GNSS time series and seismic recordings of slow slip events in Cascadia. We use detrended GNSS data, apply the MODWT transform, and stack the wavelet details over several nearby GNSS stations. As an independent check on the timing of slow slip events, we also compute the cumulative number of tremor in the vicinity of the GNSS stations, detrend this signal, and apply the MODWT transform. In both the time series, we can then see simultaneous waveforms where timing corresponds to the timing of slow slip events. We assume that there is a slow slip event whenever there is a positive peak followed by a negative peak in the wavelet signal. We verify that there is a good agreement between slow slip events detected with only GNSS data and slow slip events detected with only tremor data for northern Cascadia. The wavelet-based detection method effectively detects events of magnitude higher than 6, as determined by independent event catalogs (e.g., Michel et al., 2019). As a demonstration of using the wavelet analysis in a region without significant tremor, we also analyze GNSS data from New Zealand and detect slow slip events that are spatially and temporally close to those detected previously by other studies.
Probabilistic Fault Displacement Hazards along the Milun Fault
Authors: Gao Jia-Cian , Chan Chung-Han , Ma Kuo-Fong , Lee Chyi-Tyi
Published: August 2022

Coseismic surface displacements can result in significant damage to structures located on or near a fault. To address this particular hazard, probabilistic fault displacement hazard analysis (PFDHA) has been proposed to estimate expected displacement on a fault and in its vicinity. To construct PFDHA, any new observed surface ruptures can be included. In 2018, an Mw 6.4 earthquake hit the city of Hualien, Taiwan, and caused surface ruptures along the Milun fault. Immediately after the earthquake, field investigations were carried out to investigate the surface ruptures, which provided crucial information for PFDHA. Based on our analysis of the surface displacement data in the Hualien event, we compared existing fault displacement prediction equations, and found that 86% and 65% of the observations from the free field and manmade structures, respectively, were within one standard deviation of the predictions. Based on our fault displacement model and its uncertainties, we analyze the fault displacement hazard in the Hualien region by incorporating epistemic uncertainties through a logic tree approach. Comparing with the occurrence probability of distributed surface faulting, most observations are within one standard deviation of the predictions, suggesting the applications of derived PFDHA.

The Effects of Water Stress on Cotton Leaf Area and Leaf Morphology
Authors: ÖDEMİŞ Berkant , KAZGÖZ CANDEMİR Derya
Published: August 2022

The most important effect of water stress on plants is that it reduces leaf area and leads to changes in leaf morphology. Decreased leaf area results in reduces crop yield through the reduction in photosynthesis. This study investigates the effects of the decrease in leaf area on seed cotton yield, evapotranspiration (ET), water use efficiency (WUE), and leaf geometry in cotton plants under water stress in different growth periods. The cotton plant was divided into three different growth periods (vegetative period (VP), flowering and boll growth period (FB), and boll opening (BO) period), and irrigation water was applied at field capacity level during the periods of full irrigation (T), while non-irrigation was applied during the water stress periods (O). In the experiment, 6 different irrigation strategies were based on: OOO, TTT, OTO, TOO, OTT, and TOT. In each treatment, five leaves were taken from three plants in every replicate during three growth periods, and the leaf area and geometric lengths of each leaf were measured. Seed cotton yield, evapotranspiration, and WUE decreased significantly depending on the severity and duration of the water stress to which the cotton was exposed. Physiologically, cotton leaves under water stress in the first stage of growth tended to increase the leaf lobe numbers while reducing the leaf area. Therefore, there were more leaf lobes numbers measured in OOO than in other treatments. Irrigation in the vegetative growth period was more effective in increasing the leaf area than the other growth periods.
Respiratory viral infections, SARS-СoV-2 and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Published: August 2022

Further study of the distribution, pathogenesis of viral infection, the role of respiratory viruses in the formation and exacerbation of chronic lung diseases will allow the development of new methods of protection, the creation of modern pharmaceutical approaches for the treatment and prevention of COVID-19.

The aim. The article presents an analytical review of the scientific literature in PubMed, Google Scholar, medRxiv, bioRxiv which was conducted to study and evaluate the mechanisms, pathogenesis, and clinical picture of respiratory viral infections, including Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome CoronaVirus-2 (SARS-СoV-2).

Conclusion. Understanding the specific mechanisms of the development of the host’s immune response to respiratory viruses allows a better understanding of the course of a new coronavirus infection, including in patients with COPD, since respiratory tract infections are closely associated with the formation and exacerbation of COPD. Respiratory viruses activate immune responses and exacerbate underlying inflammation in COPD. SARS-СoV-2 leads to a dysregulated immune response and, in severe cases, an overactive immune response, causing the development of a cytokine storm and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Unlike seasonal respiratory viruses, SARS-СoV-2 circulates throughout the year and can be a source of frequent and severe exacerbations in patients with COPD which require further monitoring and research.

Published: August 2022

The use of Isoniazid Prevention Therapy (IPT) helps normalize the health issues of patients with TB. The majority of patients suffering from these diseases are from a low-income group with poor education. They do not have adequate knowledge related to prevention and approaches that reduce the occurrence of TB disease soon after ART initiation where risk is higher.

The study aims to determine the incidence of tuberculosis disease among patients with HIV while taking IPT and after its completion.

This is a retrospective, observational, longitudinal study that used existing records of patients from Department of Pulmonary Medicine, D Y Patil Medical College, Nerul, Navimumbai, Maharashtra, India. The period of the study was from January 2020 to June 2021. STATA statistical software Version 12 was used to analyse the data. The sample size was estimated based on simple proportion formula taking incident TB disease after starting IPT 1.5% based on the study in a similar setting.

In this study, 960 patients were involved with mean age of 30 years, ranged between 25-37 years. TB was developed in 9.2% patients, out of which, 2.2% of patients were diagnosed while receiving IPT and 6.97% after IPT. Moreover, 55.2% of patients were on this treatment at the last observation. The unfavourable count of patients was 152 (15.8%). Most of the patients with unfavourable follow-up outcomes were lost to follow-up. 0.6% of patients have stopped treatment during the follow-up and 28.9% was transferred out. Finally, 4.7% of patients died and remaining were recovered.

Breakthrough TB was uncommon and shown a significant proportion of it occurrence in the first month of treatment. This could be due to difficulty in diagnosing TB disease with HIV. The proper screening of patients is essential for offering treatment and providing effective care services.
Comparative study on functional outcome of medialmalleolus fracture management by tension bandwiring versus screw fixation
Authors: Naik B Vishwanath , Shenkeshi Sirish Kumar , Kumar Banna Kiran , Sindhuja
Published: August 2022

: There is an increasing trend of ankle fractures in young as well as elderly patients recently. This study aimed to compare the advantages and disadvantages of tension band wiring with screw fixation for medial malleolar fractures.

: All the cases of suspected ankle fractures were taken up for the study. Then the patient’s radiographs were taken, anteroposterior and lateral views of the ankle joints. CT scan is taken if it was indicated. A Total of n=30 cases were studied in this study. They were allotted into two groups of n=15 each. One group was treated with tension band wiring and the second group was treated with screw fixation.

: Cases managed by tension band wiring (TBW), n=12 (80%) cases had a range of motion of the ankle within 10° of the uninjured ankle and n=2 (13.3%) patients were having motion within 15° of the uninjured ankle. The rest n=1 (6.66%) patients had motion within 20° of the uninjured ankle. Patients managed with screw fixation, n=10 (66.6%) patients had a range of motion of the ankle within 10° of the uninjured ankle and n=3 (20%) patients were having motion within 15° of the uninjured ankle. The rest n=2 (13.3%) patients had motion within 20° of the uninjured ankle.

: Isolated medial malleolar fractures had a better outcome compared to the bimalleolar fractures. As far as the choice of treatment tension band wiring appears to be more desirable than screw fixation because it produces Excellent functional outcomes with minimal complications.

Authors: Park Seong-Hi , Lee Heashoon
Published: August 2022

Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2DM), a chronic disease, is associated with obesity and inflammation. This study investigated the effects of body mass index (BMI), leukocytes, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) on type 2 diabetes mellitus in South Korean adults.
Methods: Secondary analysis of data from 5,420 adults’ subject in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES Ⅶ-3, 2018) was performed. The collected data were analyzed by n (%), mean ± SD, t-test, χ2 -test, and multiple logistic regression methods.
Results: BMI and leukocytes count were higher in the T2DM-diagnosed group. The probability of T2DM increased by 4.76 times for obesity compared to normal weight, but high obesity was not an influencing factor for T2DM. As the leukocytes increased, the probability of T2DM increased by 1.15 times. However, hs-CRP was not an influencing factor for T2DM. Age was higher in the T2DM-diagnosed group and appeared to be an influencing factor in T2DM.
Conclusion: Obesity and inflammation indicators, including WBC, appeared to be risk factors for T2DM. This study presented the basis of diet and exercise interventions for weight loss and white blood cell count in a T2DM prevention and management program.

Background: Recently, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have discovered several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and loci associated with the risk of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). rs6445975 (T>G; intronic variant) polymorphism in the PXK gene is one of these loci. However, there was an inconsistency between the results of replicative studies on European and Asia ancestry. This study aimed to assess the possible association between rs6445975 polymorphism with SLE risk in the Iranian population.
Methods: Genotype and allele distribution of rs6445975 polymorphism were investigated in 110 patients with SLE and 115 healthy controls in Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran in 2019 via real-time PCR high resolution melting method (HRM).
Results: GG and TG genotypes, but not TT genotype, were associated with increased risk of SLE (GG vs TT; OR= 7.538; 95%CI [3.47, 17.066] and TG vs TT; OR=2.21; 95%CI [1.06, 4.72]). Inheritance analysis revealed that TG + GG was correlated with the increased risk of SLE disease in the dominant model (OR=3.928; 95%CI [2.056, 7.74]). Moreover, subjects with the G allele were more frequently affected with SLE than individuals with the T allele (OR= 3.55; 95%CI [2.37, 5.36]). The G allele in patients was correlated with serum concentration of CRP, ESR, anti-dsDNA antibody, C3, and C4 and presentation of some clinical manifestations such as kidney involvements and skin lesions (P<0.05).
Conclusion: Our findings suggest a substantial association between rs6445975 polymorphism in the PXK gene with susceptibility and clinical characteristics of SLE in the Iranian population.

Investigation of Factors Affecting Head Lice (Pediculus Humanus Capitis) Infestation Prevalence and Evaluation of Permethrin 1% and Dimethicone 4% for Its Treatment in Primary Girl Students in Doroud County
Authors: Barik-Abi Somayeh , Davari Behroz , Nasirian Hassan
Published: August 2022

Background: Head lice is a worldwide parasitic disease that can be considered a threat to public health. The majority of its prevalence is among children aged from 6 to 11 years. Due to students’ low attention to personal hygiene tips, and presence in populated places such as schools, they are more prone to head lice infestation; thus, studying this disease among students is a hygienic priority. The current study was undertaken among primary girl students in Doroud County with the aim to determine the prevalence of head lice infestation and its relations with epidemiologic factors and to evaluate the treatment efficay of permethrin shampoo 1% and dimethicone.
Methods: The present study was performed in two phases: observational (cross-sectional) and interventional (clinical trial). Five schools were selected from five geographical areas for sampling. Other information was collected from student records or by direct inquiry. Eighty girls infested were randomly allocated in two groups and received either one of the mentioned treatments. The results of the interventions were evaluated on days 7 and 14.
Results: The prevalence of head lice infestation was10.3%. The most involved group (40 %) were students of third grade. The father’s education and shower times per week showed significant effects among epidemiologic factors (p value = 0.05). The outcome of treatment in the first week did not show a significant difference between the groups. Treatment with dimethicone lotion in the second week (p value = 0.025) and in general during two weeks (p value = 0.006) was more effective in removing the head lice than permethrin shampoo.
Conclusion: Head pediculosis is more prevalent among girl students whose fathers are less educated and take less showers in a week. Thus it is crucial to deal with head lice by social health education among families. In addition, dimethicone lotion is more effective than permethrin shampoo in eradicating this external parasite.

Introduction: The present study aims to examine neuroticism, aggression, and risk taking as predictors of accident-proneness in line employees of National Iranian Drilling Company.
Methods: The present correlational predictive study was designed to predict group membership (injured employees, uninjured employees) and achieve the Audit Equation. The statistical population of the study consisted of all injured and uninjured line employees at the National Iranian Drilling Company of Ahvaz working in the company during the last five years (from April 2010 to November 2013). The research sample consisted of 145 injured employees (over the past 5 years) and 115 uninjured employees, selected using simple random sampling method. The subjects were measured by Neo Personality Inventory (Costa and McCrae, 1992), SCL90R Aggression Index, and Risk Taking scale (Westaby and Lee, 2003) questionnaires.
Results: The data were analyzed by SPSS-16 software. The results of this study showed that accident-proneness of employees can be predicted only by neuroticism and aggression variables. The risk taking was not able to distinguish between injured and uninjured employees.
Conclusion: According to the research results, in order to reduce accident-proneness in employees, personality traits, such as neuroticism and aggression should be considered.

Introduction: Occupational accidents not only reduce social credibility and impose a heavy economic burden on the organization, but also cause fatalities and disability among personnel. This study aims to assess risk and review safety promotion guidelines in railway construction projects.
Methods: This study investigated the safety status of Tehran-Karaj railway construction and increasing lines project in four phases, including infrastructure, technical buildings, superstructure, and joint activities. The data were gathered by reviewing project safety documentation, reported accidents, and risk assessment results by failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) method. Risks were categorized based on control ability at three levels, including low, moderate, and high levels. Control measures were prioritized based on the risk coverage percentage, cost, implementation time, and effectiveness.
Results: In total, 377 risks were identified, 19.9%, 61.2%, and 18.9% of which were in the low, moderate, and high levels, respectively. The most frequently identified risks and the highest rate of accidents were related to technical buildings (42.2%) and superstructure (36.6%) phases, respectively. In terms of consequence, the most severe accident occurred in the infrastructure phase within the contractors' scope of action. Falling from height was identified as the greatest threat against the project, and collapsing, falling, and hitting with materials as the key cause of the accident. It was found that controlling 39.8% of the risks could avert 73.3% of the project occupational accidents.
Conclusion: The findings reveal the major role of senior management commitment to safety and emphasis on control measures, including implementing safety program training, increasing visits, and safety inspection, as well as implementing a permit to work system in all operational phases.
