Authors: Jensen Solvei Mundbjerg , Søhoel Helmer , Blaikie Frances Helen , Arias Carlos Alberto , Brix Hans
Published: February 2022

(1) Phosphorus (P) removal has proven difficult in decentralized wastewater treatment systems, and external filters installed with a highly P sorbent material have been proposed to improve the P removal. In particular, calcium (Ca) rich materials have shown promising results. (2) Eight materials (five calcareous materials, one quartz sand, and two Sol–Gel coated calcareous materials) were tested in columns fed with P-spiked tap water for two years. The experiment was operated under four periods with increased P concentration from 3.3 to 21.5 mg P L−1, and with increased surface loading rate from 18 to 227 mm d−1. After termination, the element content was measured in four column height fractions. (3) Initially, all columns removed P effectively and the calcareous materials (CAT, CAT A, and CAT C) maintained an effective removal until termination, while increases in effluent P concentration were detected already after 7 weeks for SAN and after 80–90 weeks for OPO, PHO, CAL, and HYG. The highest P content for materials were measured for the bottom fraction closest to the inlet distribution. For most materials, we observed a good agreement between the maximum sorption capacity (Qmax) and the P content in the bottom fraction; however, a discrepancy was observed for CAL, CAT A, and CAT C. (4) In conclusion, the calcareous materials provided a consistent P removal for all 24 months. Additionally, the Sol–Gel coating had a minimal effect on the P removal capacity contrary to previous findings in batch experiments for the coated materials.
Resilience of Critical Infrastructure Systems to Floods: A Coupled Probabilistic Network Flow and LISFLOOD-FP Model
Authors: Yin Yunzhu , Val Dimitri V. , Zou Qingping , Yurchenko Daniil
Published: February 2022

In this paper, a network-flow model was constructed to simulate the performance of interdependent critical infrastructure systems during flood hazards, when there is shortage of commodities such as electrical power and water. The model enabled us to control the distribution of commodities among different consumers whose demand cannot be fully met. Incorporating time-variance in the model allowed for evaluating the time evolution of the functional level of the infrastructure systems and quantifying their resilience. As a demonstration of the model’s capability, the network model was coupled with a raster-based hydraulic flooding model in the way of Monte Carlo simulations. It was then used to investigate the cascading effects of flood-related failures of individual infrastructure assets on the performance of the critical infrastructure systems of a coastal community under different flooding scenarios and future climate impacts. The coupled modelling framework is essential for correctly assessing the interdependences and cascading effects in the infrastructure systems in the case of flood hazards. While in the considered example, the extent of inundation becomes less severe with a changing climate, the risk to infrastructure does not recede because of the cascading effects. This behaviour could not be captured by the flood model alone.
A Novel Prediction and Planning Model for the Benefit of Irrigation Water Allocation Based on Deep Learning and Uncertain Programming
Authors: Jia Weibing , Wei Zhengying , Zhang Lei
Published: February 2022

Due to population growth and human activities, water shortages have become an increasingly serious concern in the North China Plain, which has become the world’s largest underground water funnel. Because the yield per unit area, planting area of crops, and effective precipitation in the region are uncertain, it is not easy to plan the amount of irrigation water for crops. In order to improve the applicability of the uncertainty programming model, a hybrid LSTM-CPP-FPP-IPP model (long short-term memory, chance-constrained programming, fuzzy possibility programming, interval parameter programming) was developed to plan the irrigation water allocation of irrigation system under uncertainty. The LSTM (long short-term memory) model was used to predict crop yield per unit area, and CPP-FPP-IPP programming (chance-constrained programming, fuzzy possibility programming, interval parameter programming) was used to plan the crop area and the effective precipitation under uncertainty. The hybrid model was used for the crop production profit of winter wheat and summer corn in five cities in the North China Plain. The average absolute error between the model prediction value and the actual value of the yield per unit area of winter wheat and summer maize in four cities in 2020 was controlled within the range of 14.02 to 696.66 kg/hectare. It shows that the model can more accurately predict the yield per unit area of crops. The planning model for the benefit of irrigation water allocation generated three scenarios of rainfall level and four planting intentions, and compared the planned scenarios with the actual production benefits of the two crops in 2020. In a dry year, the possibility of planting areas for winter wheat and summer corn is optimized. Compared with the traditional deterministic planning method, the model takes into account the uncertain parameters, which helps decision makers seek better solutions under uncertain conditions.
Future Changes in the Surface Water Balance over Western Canada Using the CanESM5 (CMIP6) Ensemble for the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways 5 Scenario
Authors: Basu Soumik , Sauchyn David J.
Published: February 2022

The Prairie provinces of Canada have about 80% of Canada’s agricultural land and contribute to more than 90% of the nation’s wheat and canola production. A future change in the surface water balance over this region could seriously affect Canada’s agro-economy. In this study, we examined 25 ensemble members of historical (1975 to 2005), near future (2021–2050), far future (2050–2080), and end of the century (2080–2100) simulations of the Canadian Earth System Model version 5 (CanESM5) from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6). A comprehensive analysis of a new Net Water Balance Index (NWBI) indicates an increased growing season dryness despite increased total precipitation over the Prairie provinces. Evapotranspiration increases by 100–300 mm with a 10–20% increase in moisture loss due to transpiration. Total evaporation decreases by 15–20% as the fractional contribution of evaporation from soil decreases by 20–25%. Total evaporation from vegetation increases by 10–15%. These changes in the surface water balance suggest enhanced plant productivity when soil moisture is sufficient, but evaporative water loss that exceeds precipitation in most years.

Published: February 2022

Large scale production of water-intensive industrial products can intensify water scarcity, resulting in potential unsustainable water use at local and regional scales. This study proposes a methodological framework for assessing the WF sustainability of multiple interdependent products in a system, and one of China’s four major large modern coal chemical industry bases is used as a case study. A Mixed-Unit Input-Output (MUIO) model was applied to calculate the blue water footprint (WF) for 19 major coal-based energy and chemicals in the study area, based on which the WF sustainability of production of the products were assessed using different indicators. Technical coefficient matrix and direct water consumption vector of the products were constructed based a database that were built by field research in the study area. Accounting result indicates that the blue WF of the coal-based products range from 2.5 × 10−4 m3/kWh for coal-fired power to 55.25 m3/t for Polytetrahydrofuran. The sustainability assessment reveals that the blue WF of all products produced in the study area are sustainable at both product and regional levels, while over half of them have reached the advanced level. However, the blue WF of a few products with large production capacities has just crossed the sustainable thresholds, posing potential threat to the local environment. This paper concludes with a discussion on the choice of blue WF accounting approach, methods to promote WF sustainability of coal-based products, and suggestions for the WF management in general.

Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a rare disease with an estimated incidence of 0.8-3 per 105 a year in adults and a prevalence of 17 per 100,000 [13, 18, 20]. AIHA can occur at any age but is more common in adults with a peak incidence between 50 and 70 years of age [20]. AIHA is characterized by the production of antibodies directed against erythrocyte antigens, followed by the destruction of erythrocytes with or without complement participation [4]. The clinical course can be variable and severe, with a reported mortality of 11% [3]. The degree of anemia depends on the characteristics of antibodies, the activity of the mononuclear phagocytic system and the compensatory response of the bone marrow.

The aim of the study was to identify the clinical, epidemiological and therapeutic features of ulcerative colitis in children in Rostov-on-Don. Under the observation were 34 children aged 1 to 14 years with a diagnosis of ulcerative colitis, which was based on anamnesis, clinical picture, laboratory results, and colonoscopy. The activity of ulcerative colitis was assessed taking into account the PUCAI index. To determine the reliability of the compared indicators (%), the χ2 criterion was used. Clinical and epidemiological studies have shown an increase in the incidence of ulcerative colitis in children in Rostov-on-Don over the past 10 years. In the clinic of ulcerative colitis, mild, erased forms of the course of the disease dominated, which determined the later diagnosis at the prehospital stage. There was a «rejuvenation» of the disease: ulcerative colitis was more often detected in the preschool group of children. The incidence of ulcerative colitis in boys was higher than in girls. In the treatment of mild and moderate forms of ulcerative colitis, the use of basic drugs is very effective, taking into account the principle of «step up».

Published: February 2022

The article presents an analysis of information from literary sources devoted to the study of modern approaches in the treatment of chronic alcoholism. Chronic alcohol intoxication is characterized by a high degree of complications from the cardiovascular and nervous systems, as well as the liver and gastrointestinal tract. In this case, drugs are used mainly to relieve withdrawal symptoms. It is for the relief of withdrawal symptoms that pharmacotherapy is most often used. Since alcoholism causes psychiatric disorders that are extremely varied in their clinical manifestations and severity, a wide range of psychotropic drugs is used to treat them. In addition to this group, energy-correcting agents are also used for antihypoxic and detoxifying therapy. An indication for the use of drugs from the class of antioxidants, combining the properties of tranquilizers and nootropics, without exerting a toxic effect on the heart and protecting the myocardium under conditions of hypoxia, is alcohol withdrawal syndrome with a predominance of neurosis-like and vegetative-vascular disorders. However, at the moment there is a lack of information about the effectiveness of their use in alcohol withdrawal
Exploring the impact of the national extended access scheme on patient experience of and satisfaction with general practice: an observational study using the English GP Patient Survey
Authors: Burch Patrick , Whittaker William
Published: February 2022

Background

Extended access services were introduced to help stop declining patient satisfaction with access to general practice. There has been no evaluation, at a practice population level, as to how the introduction of these services has impacted patients.

Aim

To explore the association between practices offering extended access and patient responses to the GP Patient Survey (GPPS).

Design & setting

An observational study was carried out. Patient experience data were taken from the national GPPS in England (2018 and 2019). Data on the provision of extended access services were sourced from NHS England. The analyses considered potential confounding factors. These were sourced from publicly available data about practice characteristics from NHS Digital, NHS England, and government websites.

Method

The percentage of patients reporting positive responses to questions related to satisfaction with access, continuity of care, and overall satisfaction were modelled. The association between these outcomes and the provision of extended access were estimated via multivariable fixed-effects linear regression.

Results

There were no associations between practices offering extended access services and key indicators of patient experience or satisfaction at a practice population level.

Conclusion

Extended access has a cost of an estimated 250 million GBP per year. While there is a body of work that finds associations with emergency department use reduction, at a practice population level, in this study it has been found that extended access had no measurable impact. This may be because extended access services are only used by a small number of patients, and its introduction has not significantly impacted general practices and most general practice patients.

Cultivation theory is a social theory that examines the long-term effects of television on audiences. Cultivation theory, developed by George Gerbner and colleagues at the University of Pennsylvania began in the late 1960s. This cultivation theory stems from several large-scale research projects entitled 'Cultural Indicators'. George Gerbner stated that every television broadcast can affect the audience who watch it. The influence caused by television is not only cognitive or affective, but also conative (behavioural). In principle, cultivation theory is related to the field of psychological theory in a behavioristic perspective, namely social learning theory and social cognition theory developed by Albert Banduran. Both of these theories assume that humans learn through observations and stimuli received from their environment. Likewise, what happens to children watching shows on television, with the senses that children will be able to process information from television. Then the information will automatically be stored in the cognitive and will ultimately affect the attitudes and behavior of children.

Este trabajo propone ampliar el conocimiento relacionado con la ocupación del espacio y con las estrategias de asentamiento, tecnología y subsistencia generadas por los grupos cazadores-recolectores complejos que habitaron la margen izquierda del bajo río Uruguay durante el Holoceno tardío (ca. 1900 – 500 años AP). Para ello presentamos y discutimos una serie de datos arqueológicos recientemente obtenidos a través de prospecciones y sondeos y mediante el análisis de colecciones locales. Los sitios arqueológicos del área presentan registros de explotación de recursos acuáticos y terrestres, manufactura y uso de alfarería y artefactos líticos tallados y picados/pulidos. Estos fueron ubicados mayoritariamente en formas naturalmente elevadas del paisaje como son los cordones arenosos y los albardones que, en conjunto con las densidades artefactuales evidenciadas y la variabilidad cronológica de los mismos, conduce a que las mencionadas poblaciones desarrollaron un patrón de asentamiento de baja movilidad de manera similar al esquema “campamento central”. Los resultados de las prospecciones y de los análisis de la composición sedimentológica de los sitios señalan la ausencia de estructuras construidas. Sin embargo, existen similitudes tecnológicas, estilísticas y económicas que permiten relacionar las ocupaciones en la margen oriental del bajo río Uruguay con distintas unidades arqueológicas correspondientes a grupos cazadores-recolectores complejos identificadas en la margen derecha del río Uruguay y en el Paraná medio e inferior. Finalmente, a partir de estilos cerámicos corrugados y pintados también se ha identificado en el área la presencia de grupos guaraníes, asociada a contextos de cazadores-recolectores, aunque también se manifiesta en ocupaciones exclusivamente realizadas por grupos guaraníes.
Conservación y administración del arte rupestre en Bolivia. Experiencias durante 30 años (1988- 2017)
Authors: Taboada Freddy
Published: February 2022

El artículo comienza con consideraciones sobre el arte rupestre y su conservación. Luego se realiza un abordaje al marco legal que establece las pautas de gestión y la conservación del arte rupestre en Bolivia, donde se analiza la última Constitución Política del Estado Plurinacional de Bolivia, que, en contraste con la anterior constitución, establece su propiedad colectiva y empodera a la sociedad en general como dueña y responsable de la conservación y preservación del Patrimonio Cultural Boliviano teniendo como rector al Estado. Posteriormente se presenta la labor de la Sociedad de Investigación del Arte Rupestre de Bolivia (SIARB) en la conservación del arte rupestre durante los últimos 30 años, desde sus inicios hasta lograr protocolos institucionalizados para su conservación e investigación. Se presenta el modelo desarrollado por la SIARB, para la Conservación Preventiva, Curativa y Gestión del arte rupestre que involucra: concertación entre los Gobiernos Municipales y las comunidades originarias, permisos correspondientes, investigación arqueológica y etnohistórica, el diagnóstico de conservación y tratamientos básicos, el desarrollo de los sitios con una infraestructura adecuada para las visitas, talleres de concientización para autoridades y público en general, talleres de capacitación para “guardaruinas” y guías turísticos, reglamentos de gestión y administración y un plan de manejo a corto y mediano plazo, que incluye el monitoreo de conservación. Finalmente, se mencionan brevemente las actividades de diferentes instituciones que realizaron intervenciones sin una base técnica y científica, cuyos resultados han sido más bien perjudiciales.

Введение. Специфическая лабораторная диагностика методом иммуноферментного анализа (ИФА) играет ключевую роль в расшифровке этиологии инфекционных заболеваний, в том числе коронавирусной инфекции (КВИ). В настоящее время на белорусском рынке представлены несколько тест-систем для определения антител (АТ) классов IgM и IgG к вирусу SARS-CoV-2. Данные диагностические наборы имеют некоторые отличия по составу целевых антигенов (АГ), к которым предусмотрено определение АТ (S-Ag и NP-Ag). Цель. Проанализировать первичные результаты применения тест-систем для определения антител к различным антигенам в диагностике COVID-19. Материалы и методы. Исследование проводилось на базе учреждения здравоохранения «Городская клиническая инфекционная больница» г. Минска с использованием наборов реагентов для иммуноферментного исследования на IgM и IgG к различным антигенным детерминантам вируса SARS-CoV-2. Результаты. Анализ положительных иммуноферментных результатов на антитела к SARSCoV-2 показал, что антитела к S-Ag возбудителя КВИ определялись чаще, особенно класса М. Уровень средней оптической плотности (ОП) серопозитивных образцов был значительно выше среди антител к шиповидному S-Ag вируса SARS-CoV-2 (выше в 2 и более раз), чем к нуклекапсидному NP-Ag. Заключение. Проведенные параллельные исследования показали, что при использовании тест-систем по определению антител к SARS-CoV-2 необходимо учитывать тип антигена, используемый конкретной тест-системой.

Introduction. Serological diagnosis plays a key role in the diagnosis of infectious diseases. Currently, there are several commercial test systems on the market for the determination of IgM and IgG antibodies to coronavirus. These test systems have some differences in the composition of target antigens, for which the determination of antibodies is provided (S-Ag and NP-Ag). Purpose. Аnalyze the primary results of the use of test systems for the determination of antibodies to various antigens in the diagnosis of COVID-19. Materials and methods. The study was carried out on the basis of the health care institution “City Clinical Infectious Diseases Hospital” in Minsk using reagent kits for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for IgM and IgG antibodies to several antigenic determinants. Results. Analysis of positive enzyme immunoassays for antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 showed that antibodies to S-Ag of the SARS-CoV-2 were detected more often, especially IgM. Conclusion. Conducted parallel studies on different test systems for coronavirus have shown the need for their use to solve various problems. The average optical density (OD) of seropositive samples was higher among antibodies to the surface S-Ag SARS-CoV-2 than to the nucleicapsid protein
