Authors: Jitmun Waritsara , Palee Patison , Choosri Noppon , Surapunt Tisinee
Published: June 2022

BACKGROUND

AIDS, which is caused by HIV, has long been one of the most significant global public health issues. Since the beginning of the HIV epidemic, various types of nonelectronic communication tools have been commonly used in HIV/AIDS prevention and care, but studies that apply the potential of electronic games are still limited.

OBJECTIVE

We aimed to identify, compare, and describe serious games and gamified systems currently used in HIV/AIDS prevention and care that were studied over a specific period of time.

METHODS

A scoping review was conducted into serious games and gamified systems used in HIV prevention and care in various well-known digital libraries from January 2010 to July 2021.

RESULTS

After identifying research papers and completing the article selection process, 49 of the 496 publications met the inclusion criteria and were examined. A total of 32 articles described 22 different serious games, while 17 articles described 13 gamified systems for HIV prevention and care.

CONCLUSIONS

Most of the studies described in the publications were conducted in the United States, while only a few studies were performed in sub-Saharan African countries, which have the highest global HIV/AIDS infection rates. Regarding the development platform, the vast majority of HIV/AIDS gaming systems were typically deployed on mobile devices. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of using serious games and gamified systems. Both can improve the efficacy of HIV/AIDS prevention strategies, particularly those that encourage behavior change.

UNSTRUCTURED

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the rapid scaling of telehealth limited the extent to which proactive planning for equitable implementation was possible. The deployment of telehealth will persist in the postpandemic era, given patient preferences, advances in technologies, growing acceptance of telehealth, and the potential to overcome barriers to serve populations with limited access to high-quality in-person care. However, aspects and unintended consequences of telehealth may leave some groups underserved or unserved, and corrective implementation plans that address equitable access will be needed. The purposes of this paper are to (1) describe equitable implementation in telehealth and (2) integrate an equity lens into actionable equitable implementation.

BACKGROUND

Electronic Health Records (EHR) with large sample sizes and rich information offer great potential for dementia research but current methods of phenotyping cognitive status are not scalable.

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate whether Natural Language Processing (NLP)-powered semi-automated annotation can improve the speed and interrater reliability of chart reviews for phenotyping cognitive status

METHODS

In this diagnostic study, we developed and evaluated a semi-automated NLP-powered annotation tool (NAT) to facilitate phenotyping of cognitive status. Clinical experts adjudicated the cognitive status of 627 patients at Mass General Brigham (MGB) Healthcare using NAT or traditional chart reviews. Patient charts contained EHR data from two datasets: (1) Records from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2018 for 100 Medicare beneficiaries from the MGB Accountable Care Organization (ACO), and (2) Records from 2-years pre-COVID diagnosis to the date of COVID diagnosis for 527 MGB patients. All EHR data from the relevant period were extracted; diagnosis codes, medications, and laboratory test values were processed and summarized; clinical notes were processed through an NLP pipeline; and a web tool was developed to present an integrated view of all data. Cognitive status was rated as cognitively normal, cognitively impaired, or undetermined. Assessment time and interrater agreement of NAT compared to manual chart reviews for cognitive status phenotyping was evaluated.

RESULTS

NAT adjudication provided higher interrater agreement (Cohen k=0.89 vs. k=0.80) and significant speed up (time difference mean [SD]: 1.4 [1.3] minutes, P < 0.001; ratio median [min, max]: 2.2 [0.4, 20]) over manual chart reviews. There was moderate agreement with manual chart reviews (Cohen k=0.67). In the cases that exhibited disagreement with manual chart review, NAT adjudication was able to produce assessments that had broader clinical consensus due to its integrated view of highlighted relevant information and semi-automated NLP features.

CONCLUSIONS

NAT adjudication improves the speed and interrater reliability for phenotyping cognitive status compared to manual chart reviews. This study underscores the potential of an NLP-based clinically adjudicated method to build large-scale dementia research cohorts from EHR.
Epigenetics, cell cycle and stem cell metabolism. Formation of insulin-producing cells

Published: June 2022

Stem cell (SC) differentiation requires a series of chromatin rearrangements to establish cell identity. Posttranslational modifications of histones usually regulate the dynamics of heterochromatin. Histones are subjected to various modifications, such as acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation and ubiquinination, and thus contribute to regulation of chromatin status and transcriptional activity. The chemically stable pattern of methylated histones promotes cellular memory relative to external stimuli, maintaining transcription levels of adaptive genes even after elimination of environmental signals. Chromatin modifications play an important role in the maturation of pancreatic islet cells, the establishment of a secretion pattern that stimulates the regulation of insulin secretion. MicroRNAs, a class of endogenous small noncoding RNAs in eukaryotes, are important regulators of gene expression at the level of posttranscriptional mechanisms. MicroRNAs regulate insulin secretion, pancreatic development, and β-cell differentiation. Pluripotent SCs are characterized by a high rate of proliferation, the ability to self-repair and the potential for differentiation in different cell types. This rapid proliferation is due to a modified cell cycle that allows cells to rapidly transition from DNA synthesis to cell division by reducing the time of gap (G1 and G2) phases. The canonical WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway is characterized as a major driver of cell growth and proliferation. At G1, WNT signaling induces a transition to the S-phase. Compared to their somatic counterparts, pluripotent SCs exhibit a high rate of glycolysis similar to aerobic glycolysis in cancer cells, a phenomenon known as the Warburg effect, which is important for maintaining SC properties. In stem cells, the extracellular influx of Ca2+ into the cytoplasm is mediated mainly by depot-controlled Ca2+ channels. Extracellular calcium has been shown to promote SC proliferation and thus may be involved in transplant therapy.

Published: June 2022

Introducción: La patología más conocida de los vasos linfáticos es el linfangioma, considerado una malformación del desarrollo, y no una verdadera neoplasia. Los linfangiomas de cavidad oral muestran predilección por niños, la mitad de los casos afecta a la lengua en forma de agregados de vesículas translúcidas. Sin embargo, lesiones solitarias, circunscritas y superficiales pueden presentarse en boca. Se considera que éstas representan ectasia focal de vasos linfáticos (linfangiectasia), la cual puede ser secundaria a obstrucción o trauma. Objetivo: El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar el caso de una linfangiectasia superficial adquirida en mucosa labial inferior y revisar los diagnósticos diferenciales considerados con la presentación clínica. Presentación del caso: Paciente femenino de seis años que acude a consulta por presentar dos nódulos asintomáticos, translúcidos y fluctuantes en mucosa labial inferior. La hipótesis diagnóstica clínica inicial fue de mucocele. Bajo anestesia local se realizó biopsia excisional de ambas lesiones. El estudio histopatológico reveló un espacio vascular subepitelial ectásico, revestido por endotelio, la inmunohistoquímica con D2-40 confirmó su naturaleza linfática. Después de ocho meses de seguimiento la paciente está bien y sin recurrencia. Conclusiones: Este caso representa una linfangiectasia adquirida probablemente secundaria a trauma de los capilares linfáticos periféricos, causada por el mantenedor de espacio removible. Esta entidad es diferente a los linfangiomas profundos, difusos, que se consideran verdaderas malformaciones vasculares y que, generalmente, están presentes desde el nacimiento. En la mucosa oral la mayoría de las lesiones linfáticas son superficiales y representan probablemente linfangiectasias y no verdaderos linfangiomas

Introducción: El paladar fisurado y labio fisurado son lesiones que producen disglosia labial y palatal que afectan la fonación. Objetivo: Analizar los problemas bucofonatorios asociados a la disglosia labial y palatal en pacientes de la Fundación Operación Sonrisa Ecuador (FOSE), 2018. Material y métodos: Este trabajo fue de tipo observacional descriptivo de corte trasversal. La población de estudio estuvo conformada por 62 historias clínicas de la FOSE, de las cuales se seleccionaron 42 mediante un muestreo no probabilístico intencional. La técnica que se utilizó fue la observación y sus instrumentos, la historia clínica y el algoritmo de la escala del habla. Resultados: La prueba de Spearman mostró estadísticamente que la escala del habla nasolabial presentó una correlación negativa muy baja, la escala del habla nasolabial provocada y el test de esfuerzo evidenciaron una correlación positiva baja. La escala del habla en términos generales demostró una correlación positiva muy baja en relación con las lesiones agrupadas (labio fisurado, paladar fisurado, y labio y paladar fisurado). El valor de significación estadística entre las dos variables fue mayor de 0.05 (p = 0.437) de acuerdo con la prueba ANOVA. Conclusión: No existió suficiente evidencia de que haya diferencias entre las medias de los grupos de impresión diagnóstica respecto a la escala del habla debido a la variabilidad de los diferentes tipos y subtipos de patologías; sin embargo, en términos generales el total de la escala del habla evidenció una correlación positiva muy baja con relación a las patologías agrupadas. Esto significa que estas patologías orales aún influyen de una manera mínima en la producción de fonemas, a pesar de que la mayoría de los pacientes ya han sido intervenidos quirúrgicamente en una o más ocasiones.

Authors: Ingabire Landry , Kurniawan Yandry
Published: June 2022

The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is a country with the longest rebel conflict of the 21st century. This article analyzes the causes of the UN’s difficulties in finding a solution to the crisis of rebel groups which threaten security in the DRC, particularly in its eastern part. Most of the existing work on the subject under study state that the failure of peacekeeping missions in the DRC are due to various factors such as mandate, strength, complexity of violence, etc. However, existing studies have not analyzed the work of MONUSCO as a regime and why this regime is not effective. In approaching the theory of the international regime, this article uses the internal and external factors of the regime to analyze the causes of this ineffective peacekeeping mission in the DRC. Research applies qualitative research methods with data from primary and secondary data obtained from official MONUSCO documents, books, journals, and online news. This article shows that the rebel crisis in the DRC is due to various internal problems and that the MONUSCO principles and rules are ineffective in eradicating the rebel groups which cause insecurity hence deterring peace in the DRC.AbstrakRepublik Demokratik Kongo (DRC) adalah negara dengan konflik pemberontakan terpanjang pada abad ke-21. Artikel ini menganalisis penyebab kesulitan PBB dalam mencari solusi atas krisis kelompok pemberontak yang mengancam keamanan di DRC, khususnya yang terjadi di wilayah bagian timurnya. Sebagian besar tulisan yang sudah ada mengenai subjek yang diteliti menyatakan bahwa kegagalan misi penjaga perdamaian di DRC disebabkan oleh berbagai faktor seperti mandat, kekuatan, kompleksitas kekerasan, dll. Namun, penelitian terdahulu belum pernah menganalisis MONUSCO sebagai rezim dan mengapa rezim ini tidak efektif. Dengan pendekatan teori rezim internasional, artikel ini menggunakan faktor internal dan eksternal rezim untuk menganalisis penyebab tidak efektifnya misi pemeliharaan perdamaian di DRC. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan data primer dan data sekunder yang diperoleh dari dokumen resmi MONUSCO, buku, jurnal, dan berita online. Artikel ini menunjukkan bahwa krisis pemberontak di DRC disebabkan oleh berbagai masalah internal dan bahwa prinsip dan aturan MONUSCO tidak efektif dalam memberantas kelompok pemberontak yang menyebabkan ketidakamanan sehingga menghalangi perdamaian di DRC.
Minimization of Non-Value-Added Activities in an Aerospace Industry
Authors: Damacharla NagamalleswaraRao
Published: June 2022

Abstract-- The industry was having lesser productivity than the required due to the presence of certain ‘non-value added’ activities. Hence, the requirement was to improve productivity by means of cost reduction and rationalisation of manpower. Since the main purpose was to eliminate any process that does not add value to the final output. To reduce the waste, the lean manufacturing is the best choice among the available techniques. The Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is one of the major components in lean manufacturing techniques. This helps in identifying the major opportunities for performance improvement in the assembly line of the aerospace industry. The Value Stream Mapping was developed in the required assembly lines of the aerospace industry. The Value Stream Mapping consists of Time-Study, 5s implementation and skill based line balancing at the required workstations. Time-Study was conducted at the bottleneck workstations. The results were analysed by categorising them as value added (VA) and non-value added (NVA) components. This has benefited in identifying waste in the assembly line. The activities which were not adding value to the final product were eliminated and compared with previous results. Based on the analysis, the required man-power was added to improve the productivity. Keywords— Value Stream Mapping, Lean manufacturing, Time-Study, 5s, Productivity

Authors: Chougule Rutuja
Published: June 2022

Abstract: Smart antennas have received increasing interest for improving the performance of wireless radio systems. These systems of antennas include a large number of techniques that attempt to enhance the received signal, suppress all interfering signals, and increase capacity, in general. The main purpose of this article is to provide an overview of the current state of research in the area of smart antennas, and to describe how they can be used in wireless systems. A smart antenna takes advantage of diversity effect at the source (transmitter), the destination (receiver), or both. Diversity effect involves the transmission and/or reception of multiple radio frequency (RF) waves to increase data speed and reduce the error rate. Thus, this article provides a basic model for determining the angle of arrival for incoming signals, the appropriate antenna beamforming, and the adaptive algorithms that are currently used for array processing. Moreover, it is shown how smart antennas, with spatial processing, can provide substantial additional improvement when used with TDMA and CDMA digitalcommunication systems.
Smarticulture: Novel Farming Technique to Achieve Automation in Farming and Higher Crop Yield with Aid of Artificial Intelligence
Authors: G Mukesh Anand
Published: June 2022

Abstract— Smart agriculture is a new concept, Because IoT sensors can provide information about agriculture fields and then act on it based on user input. This paper proposes a smart agriculture system which include of drone seeding, fertilisers spraying, soil sampling, farm condition monitoring includes temperature, level of water, moisture monitoring and even any movement happens in the field which may ruin the agricultural field ,through the application of IoT drones and sensors for farms and also crop rotation farms. Drone will collect farm data such as pH value, soil humidity from a ground-based sensor that will be pre-plugged in the farm by the farmer. Because of its capacity to connect over a long distance, Zigbee is used to connect the ground sensor and the drone. The acquired data will subsequently be transmitted through LoRa to a gateway, where it will be stored for data storage and analysis in the cloud. We believe that the proposed application will make farming operations more automated and increase crop output rates.

Objectives Recognizing that anthropology has a significant impact on the global environment at the level of liberal arts education in universities, we intend to seek ways to deepen and respond to the anthropological crisis through a Focus Group Interview.
Methods Focus group interviews (FGI) were conducted four times for 14 students of the Anthropocene Project at OOO Research Institute in the second semester of 2021 at D University. It was conducted four times in consideration of the ethical aspects of the study participants, and all data were categorized and analyzed through the transcription process.
Results Three themes, 10 semantic categories, and 20 semantic units were derived from the Anthropocene's ‘Yesterday’, ‘Today’, and ‘Tomorrow’. In “Anthropocene Yesterday,” “Anthropocene” was recognized as an unfamiliar word, but through this project, it became an opportunity to reflect on the environment with awareness of the anthropocene crisis, and in “Anthropocene Today,” mankind is paying a price for human activities. As a result, concerns were expressed about the deepening of the anthropological crisis by confirming weather changes, environmental destruction, and garbage islands. “Anthropocene Tomorrow” proposed artificial dome, artificial sun, frozen ark, and liberal arts anthropocene Contents as reflections on human activities, interest and practice at the individual and national level, and long-term countermeasures.
Conclusions By examining various aspects of the global environment of the Anthropocene in university liberal arts education, the research is meaningful in that it understands the crisis of global ecology through insights into the root causes and solutions that led to the Anthropocene problem.

local factors. Primary surgical resection without prior reduction is the
treatment of choice in colocolic adult intussusception.

Objective: To assess obstetrical outcomes, perceptions of childbirth
experience and emotional adjustment in women with dyspareunia. Design:
Cross-sectional study. Setting: The maternity ward of a single medical
center. Population: Four-hundred forty women, recruited within two days
postpartum. Methods: We administered self-report questionnaires
addressing demographic and reproductive background, dyspareunia, pain
and perceived threat during delivery, sense of control during labour,
perceived professional support, and maternal adjustment (i.e., perinatal
dissociation, acute stress disorder (ASD), bonding, anticipated maternal
self-efficacy depression and positive and negative affect). Obstetrical
information was retrieved from clinical files. Main outcomes measures:
Obstetrical outcomes and emotional adjustment to childbirth in women
with dyspareunia versus comparisons. Results: Three-hundred eighty-eight
women filled the dyspareunia questionnaire. The dyspareunia group
included 71 women (18.3%) and the comparison group 317 (81.7%).
Demographic data were similar between groups. No difference was observed
in labour onset, analgesia, route of delivery and perineal tears. More
participants with dyspareunia had premature delivery versus comparisons
(14.1% vs 5.6%, p=0.02). Women with dyspareunia reported lower sense
of control (p=0.01), lower perceived support (p<0.001), more
perinatal dissociation (p<0.001), ASD symptoms
(p<0.001), depression (p=0.02), negative affect
(p<0.001), lower maternal bonding (p<0.001) and
anticipated maternal self-efficacy (p=0.01). Women who experienced pain
during pelvic exams were less likely to have spontaneous labor onset,
more likely to need cervical ripening (p=0.02), and reported higher
levels of negative affect (p=0.03). Conclusion: Dyspareunia was
associated with more premature deliveries, more emotional distress and
poorer maternal adjustment. Perinatal caregivers should be cognizant of
such emotional reactions during prenatal care.

Published: June 2022

Aortic valve stenosis is the most common adult valve disease in
industrialized countries. The ageing population and the increase in
comorbidities urge the development of safer alternatives to the current
surgical treatment. Sutureless bioprosthesis have shown promising
results, especially in complex procedures and in patients requiring
concomitant surgeries. Objectives: Assess the clinical and
hemodynamic performance, safety, and durability of the Perceval
prosthetic valve. Methods: This single
center retrospective longitudinal cohort study collected data of all
adult patients with aortic valve disease who underwent aortic valve
replacement with a Perceval prosthetic valve between
February 2015 and October 2020. Of the 196 patients included (mean age
77.20±5.08 years; 45.4% female; mean EuroSCORE II 2.91±2.20%), the
majority had aortic stenosis. Results: Overall mean cross-clamp
and cardiopulmonary bypass times were 33.31±14.09 and 45.55±19.04
minutes, respectively. Mean ICU and hospital stay were 3.32±3.24 and
7.70±5.82 days, respectively. Procedural success was 98,99%, as two
explants occurred. 4 valves were reimplanted due to intra-operative
misplacement. Mean transvalvular gradients were 7.82±3.62 mmHg.
Pacemaker implantation occurred in 12.8% of patients, new-onset atrial
fibrillation in 21.9% and renal replacement support was necessary in
3.1%. Early mortality was 2.0%.  We report no structural valve
deterioration, strokes or endocarditis and one successfully treated
valve thrombosis. Conclusions: Our study confirms the excellent
clinical and hemodynamic performance and safety of a truly sutureless
aortic valve, up to 5-year follow-up. These results were consistent in
isolated and concomitant interventions, solidifying this device as a
viable option for treatment of isolated aortic valve disease.
Is there a role for biogenic amine receptors in mediating trace amine-induced vascular contraction?
Authors: Voisey Alex , Broadley Kenneth , Ford William
Published: June 2022

Background and Purposes: Substantial evidence indicates trace amines can
induce vasoconstriction independently of noradrenaline release. However,
the mechanism underlying noradrenaline-independent vasoconstrictor
responses to trace amines has not yet been established. This study
evaluates the role of trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1) and
other biogenic amine receptors in mediating trace amine-induced
vasoconstriction. Experimental Approach: Vasoconstrictor responses to
β-PEA and the TAAR1-selective agonist, RO5256390 were assessed in vitro
in endothelium-denuded aortic rings and third-order mesenteric arteries
of male Sprague Dawley rats. Key Results: β-PEA and RO5256390 induced
concentration-dependent vasoconstriction of aortic rings but not
third-order mesenteric arteries. Vasoconstrictor responses in aortic
rings were insensitive to antagonists of 5-HT and dopamine. The
murine-selective TAAR1 antagonist, EPPTB, had no effect on either β-PEA
or RO5256390-induced vasoconstriction. The α1-adrenoceptor antagonist,
prazosin, and the α2-adrenoceptor antagonist, yohimbine, induced a small
but significant shift of the β-PEA concentration response curve that
could not be ascribed to blockade of α1- or α2-adrenoceptors. Conclusion
and Implications: Vasoconstrictor responses to trace amines are not
mediated by classical biogenic amine neurotransmitter receptors.
Although β-PEA vasoconstrictor responses were insensitive to ETTP, it
has low affinity for rat TAAR1. Therefore, we propose that TAAR1 remains
the most likely candidate receptor mediating vasoconstrictor responses
to trace amines and that prazosin and yohimbine have some affinity for
TAAR1.
Rheology of Concentrated Emulsions Prepared Using the Premix Membrane Emulsification Method
Authors: Mugabi Jophous , Jeong Jae-Ho
Published: June 2022

The rheological properties of emulsions gradually change to
non-Newtonian fluid characteristics as the dispersed phase volume
fraction increase. In premix membrane emulsification, a microporous
membrane is used to prepare emulsions at higher production rates and
higher volume fractions. The droplet size and droplet size distribution
(span) can be precisely controlled, thus easier to study the rheological
properties of emulsions. The influence of volume fraction, dispersed
phase viscosity, and surfactant concentration were investigated. When
the droplet size and span were controlled in a narrow range, the
emulsion viscosity increased with dispersed phase viscosity due to
energy loss to friction as the droplets become more rigid and less
deformable, while the surfactant concentration had no significant
influence on the emulsion rheology showing that surfactants mainly
affect emulsion rheology through reduction of droplet size.
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times”: A tale of motivational-affective aspects of teaching during the 2020-2021 COVID-19 pandemic in Serbia

Published: June 2022

In order to shed light on the intrapersonal mechanisms that underlie the teaching in the blended learning environment, which implies the integration of complementary face-to-face and online approaches, we focused on the relationship between teachers? self-efficacy and motivation for teaching, with reference to the mediating role of teachers? emotional experiences. The sample included 341 subject teachers from Serbian primary schools, who use the blended learning model in teaching (84% female; average age 43.97 years). The Teachers? Sense of Efficacy Scale, Emotions in Teaching Inventory ? Revised, and Autonomous Motivation for Teaching Scale were used to examine the variables of interest. The overall fit of the mediated model to the data was adequate, confirming the mediating role of teachers? emotions in the relationship between the studied motivational constructs. The results indicate that the motivation for teaching in a blended learning environment relies on self-efficacy in instructional strategies and self-efficacy in classroom management, which partially act through the emotions concerning the experience of tension.
A validation study of the self-compassion scale-short form (SCS-SF) with ant colony optimization in a Turkish sample
Authors: Koğar Esin , Koğar Hakan
Published: June 2022

The general purpose of this study is to validate the Turkish version of the short form of Self- Compassion Scale (SCS) by Ant Colony Optimization (ACO). For this purpose, data were collected from two different samples. Sample-1 (n = 398) and Sample-2 (n = 233) consist of young and middle-aged adults. Short forms were created by selecting the most suitable items for unidimensional, two-factor correlated, six-factor correlated, six-factor higher-order, bifactor-CFA and bifactor- ESEM factor structures using ACO over Sample-1, and the best short form was determined using model-data fit indices. After the determination of the bifactor-ESEM with Sample-1 as the best factor structure, the model data fits and reliability indices of the relevant factor structure were cross-validated on Sample-2. Strict measurement invariance was established between age groups. The results indicate that the SCS-SF developed in this study is a valid and reliable measurement tool with a bifactor-ESEM structure with 12 items, 6 specific factors, and a general factor.
