Published: September 2022

ObjectivesPrediction of asthma risk can potentially be improved by including family history of asthma and related diagnoses, which reflect both genetics and shared environments. We tested the improvements in offspring asthma risk prediction using objectively-measured maternal, paternal, and offspring histories of comorbid conditions from administrative healthcare databases.
ApproachA population-based cohort study was conducted using data from Manitoba, Canada. Children born from 1974 to 2000 with linkages to at least one parent using family identification numbers were included. Asthma diagnosis and comorbidities were identified from hospital and outpatient physician visit records. Lasso regression models were used to assess performance and identify important predictors. The base model included offspring demographics, diagnosed allergic conditions and respiratory infections, and diagnosed parental asthma. Subsequent models included multiple comorbid chronic health conditions for offspring and parents.
ResultsThe cohort included 195,666 offspring; 51% were males, 13.6% had a parental asthma diagnosis, and 17.7% had an asthma diagnosis (median age at diagnosis: 6.0 years; interquartile range 3.0-11.0 years). The base model achieved a modest prediction performance with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.60, sensitivity of 0.46 and a specificity of 0.67 using a threshold of 0.20. Sensitivity significantly improved when we included offspring chronic health conditions (sensitivity= 0.69; specificity = 0.66); both measures further improved when we additionally included parents’ chronic health conditions (sensitivity= 0.72; specificity = 0.70). Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, noninfectious gastroenteritis and otitis media were among the variables that added incremental predictive value of asthma risk with odd ratios of 1.36, 1.25 and 1.18, respectively.
ConclusionsIncluding offspring and parents’ chronic health conditions, identified objectively from administrative healthcare databases, improved the performance of asthma risk prediction models in children. Health histories of comorbid conditions provide important factors to improve risk prediction models of chronic health conditions, which will facilitate disease prevention and treatment strategies.

Published: September 2022

ObjectivesTo develop a flexible platform for creating, reviewing and adjudicating annotation of unstructured text. Natural Language Processing models and statistical classifiers use the results for analysis of large databases of text, such as electronic health records, that are curated by the National Centre for Healthy Ageing (NCHA) Data Platform.
ApproachAutomated approaches are essential for large scale extraction of structured data from unstructured documents. We applied the CogStack suite to annotate clinical text from hospital inpatient records based on the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) for classifying dementia status. We trained a logistic regression classifier to determine dementia/non-dementia status within two cohorts based on frequency of occurrence of a set of terms provided by experts - one with confirmed dementia based on clinical assessment and the other confirmed non-dementia based on telephone cognitive interview. We used our annotation platform to review the accuracy of concepts assigned by CogStack.
ResultsThere were 368 people with clinically confirmed dementia and 218 screen-negative for dementia. Of these, 259 with dementia and 195 without dementia had documents in the inpatient electronic health record system, 84045 inpatient documents 16950 for the dementia and non-dementia cohort respectively. A set of key words pertaining to dementia was generated by a specialist neurologist and a health information manager, and matched to UMLS concepts. The NCHA data platform holds a copy of the inpatient text records (>13million documents) that has been annotated using CogStack. Annotated documents corresponding to the study cohort were extracted.
We tested true positive rates of annotation against 50 concepts judged by a neurologist and health information manager to be relevant to dementia patients by manually review of 100 documents.
ConclusionAutomated annotations must be validated. The platform we have developed allows efficient review and correction of annotations to allow models to be trained further or provide confidence that accuracy is sufficient for subsequent analysis. Implementation within our linked NCHA data platform will allow incorporation of text based data at scale.
Better Cardiac Care (BCC) Data Linkage Project: utilising cross-jurisdictional data to improve patient-flow capture.
Authors: Farber Rachel , Igic Branislav , Alfaro-Ramirez Maria , Nelson Michael , Francis Catherine , Taylor Lee
Published: September 2022

ObjectivesThe BCC project aims to describe the burden of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and access to cardiac procedures and care for New South Wales (NSW), Australia residents. For patients experiencing AMI, particularly ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), timely revascularisation is important to optimise prognosis.
ApproachThe AMI patient journey often involves presentation to the closest appropriate facility and transfers between hospitals, including across jurisdictions. The BCC dataset consists of cross-jurisdictional linked ambulance, emergency, hospital, outpatient, deaths, Medicare and Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme records for residents of NSW. For NSW residents hospitalised for STEMI between 2013 to 2018, we compared the number of STEMI hospitalisations, the proportion of patients receiving revascularisation procedures, and the time to procedures using only NSW records versus records from all jurisdictions and Medicare Benefits Scheme. This dataset will be updated annually.
ResultsThe BCC dataset comprises 332 million records, from 18 datasets, across 6 jurisdictions. Compared with NSW hospital data, including data from other jurisdictions increased the ascertainment of STEMI hospitalisations by 8.0% (from 15,420 to 16,659) and procedures by 11.2% (from 13,219 to 14,701) for NSW residents. This increase was greatest for residents living near state borders, increasing the number of STEMI hospitalisations by up to 210% and the percentage receiving procedures by up to 70%.
ConclusionsCross-jurisdictional data is essential to understand patient journeys of residents who live in border areas and to evaluate patient care for STEMI and AMI more broadly. The BCC dataset is a vital asset that enables a more comprehensive view of care for AMI than has been possible to date.

ObjectivesAlthough opioid prescribing and harms have increased in Australia, there is a lack of population-level evidence about the drivers of long-term opioid use, dependence and other harms. This study aims to profile the POPPY II cohort, with respect to sociodemographic and clinical health characteristics and patterns of opioid initiation.
ApproachThe POPPY II cohort includes adult residents (≥18 years) in NSW who were initiated on prescribed opioids subsidised through Australia’s Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme for any period between 1st July 2003 and 31st December 2018. The cohort has been linked to nine other datasets containing information on socio-demographic and clinical characteristics, health service use, and adverse outcomes.
ResultsThere were 3,569,433 people in the cohort. One in four people were aged ≥65 years at the time of opioid initiation (26.8%) and half were female (52.7%). About 71% resided in a major city. Approximately 6% had evidence of being treated for cancer in the year prior to opioid initiation (5.8%). In the 3 months prior to cohort entry, 27% used an analgesic medicine and 21% used a psychotropic medicine. Less than a third initiated on a strong opioid (22.2%) and the most commonly initiated opioid was paracetamol/codeine (61.3%).
ConclusionThe POPPY II study is the largest post-marketing surveillance study of prescribed opioids in Australia, and one of the largest studies worldwide. Understanding the characteristics of the cohort will inform future work aimed at generating robust evidence of the long-terms patterns and outcomes of prescribed opioid use in the Australian community.

Published: September 2022

ObjectiveTo examine differences in youth justice (YJ) system contact patterns, early life characteristics, child protection system contact, and adolescent mental health outcomes among young people who have early, late or no contact with the YJ system.
ApproachData were from the Better Evidence Better Outcomes Linked Data (BEBOLD) platform including children in South Australia born 1991-2002, followed from birth to age 18 (n=249,995). Young people were categorised into three groups: 1) those who had their first YJ supervision before age 14, i.e., those who had ‘early’ contact; 2) those who had their first YJ supervision at age 14 or older, i.e., those who had ‘late’ contact; and 3) those who had no contact with the YJ system by age 18.
ResultsOf the 249,995 children born 1991-2002, 4,097 (1.6%) had YJ contact. Of these, 667 (16.3%) had their first YJ supervision early, and 3,430 (83.7%) had their first YJ supervision late. Compared to the late contact group, young people with early contact had more serious YJ contact patterns (e.g., 91% versus 59% ever experienced custodial supervision). Compared to the late contact and no YJ contact groups, the early contact group were: more disadvantaged at birth; had more serious child protection contact by age 10; and a higher proportion had experienced at least one mental health-related hospitalisation from ages 12-18.
ConclusionThis analysis demonstrates the complex circumstances that precede and co-occur with YJ involvement. Early life adversity and poor adolescent mental health were more pronounced for young people who had early contact with YJ, compared to those who had late contact. This points to the need for investment in early supports.

Objective1 in 8 young people in the United Kingdom are estimated to have a diagnosable mental health condition. Prevalence is increasing over time, many are untreated, and need is not evenly distributed across the population. We aimed to investigate trends in children’s mental health prescribing and referrals to specialist outpatient services.
ApproachWe linked individual-level healthcare administrative records on community prescribing and referrals to outpatient Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS). The study cohort included all children aged 2 through 17 in the NHS Grampian Health Board region from 2015 to 2021 (average annual population circa 100,000) with a mental health prescription or CAMHS referral.
We measured prevalence of mental health prescribing and referrals to CAMHS over time. We investigated demographic and socioeconomic differences, including comparison of rates by age, sex, and residential area deprivation. We also investigated socioeconomic and demographic differences in referral acceptance and rejection.
ResultsPrescriptions for mental health drugs have risen 40%: from 5,000 per month in 2015 to 7,000 in 2021. 75% of prescriptions to primary schoolers are to boys, mostly for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder medications. Prescriptions to girls rise during secondary school, mostly for anti-depressants. Prescribing rates are 2.6-fold higher in the most versus least deprived areas.
Referrals to CAMHS have risen 20% over the study period, and the proportion of referrals rejected has increased from 18% to 31% – leaving the number of children accepted to specialist care stable. Boys are referred twice as often at younger ages, while girls’ referrals spike during puberty. Since 2015, boys have been referred less and rejected more, with girls now making up 61% of those treated. Referral rates are two-fold higher in the most versus least deprived areas.
ConclusionsBoth mental health prescribing and referrals to CAMHS have increased in this population, but the CAMHS service size remained fixed. Presentation and treatment patterns vary dramatically by age and sex, and socioeconomic inequalities are clear and persistent.
Barriers and facilitators to generating synthetic administrative data for research.
Authors: Kokosi Theodora , De Stavola Bianca , Mitra Robin , Copas Andrew , Harron Katie
Published: September 2022

ObjectivesGeneration of synthetic data could improve the efficiency of administrative data analysis. We describe barriers and facilitators to synthetic administrative data in the UK based on our experience of generating, assessing, and evaluating the performance of different approaches. We aim to provide guidance on the appropriate uses of synthetic administrative data.
ApproachWe generated synthetic versions of one large-population survey (Natsal-3) and two administrative datasets (Hospital Episode Statistics [HES] and National Pupil Database [NPD]). A range of methods were used based on the statistical techniques of sampling and prediction. We implemented non-parametric (e.g., Classification and Regression Tree) and parametric (e.g., generalised linear models) methods, and multiple imputation and Bayesian networks in R software. We attempted to generate low- and high-fidelity datasets and assessed utility by visualising marginal distributions of key variables, estimating the standardised propensity mean square error, and deriving standardised coefficient differences of model estimates and overlap of confidence intervals.
ResultsResults from our analysis highlighted some facilitators related to low-fidelity synthetic data that are quicker to generate, can retain the data types, format, and privacy and could be used to support training and code development. Conversely, some of the barriers included computational issues when generating high-fidelity synthetic data from complex data structures. High-fidelity data are achievable but only in the context of a specific research question and a limited number of variables. Results from the Natsal-3 data showed that parametric methods produced slightly better data utility compared to non-parametric methods. Results for HES and NPD will also be presented.
ConclusionsLow-fidelity synthetic data can provide a useful resource to support users of administrative data, whilst minimising data access timelines and while retaining privacy and confidentiality of personal data. High-utility datasets can be generated but take considerable resources, and current approaches cannot fully handle the complexity of longitudinal administrative data.

Published: September 2022

ObjectivesA defining feature of the COVID-19 pandemic in many countries were the tragic extent to which care home residents were affected and the difficulty in preventing the introduction and subsequent spread of infection.
ApproachUtilising linked data in the SAIL Databank we set out to develop a linked data platform as part of the ‘One Wales’ approach to generate evidence to inform policy makers on the key areas of transmission pathways, care home characteristics, excess mortality, and the impacts of vaccination. We used multi-sectoral linked data including routinely collected health data, administrative data and GIS generated metrics on care home characteristics and community infection rates to better understand how multiple factors impacted on care home residents.
ResultsWe created a care home index with enhanced care home characteristics for all care homes in Wales and were able to link 15,773 care home residents in the SAIL Databank to 923 care homes. We were able to generate early evidence demonstrating an increased risk of mortality for care home residents during Wave 1 (adjusted HR 1.72 compared to 2016). We were able to show that hospital discharge in Wales during the initial stages of the pandemic, although significant, had a much smaller impact on subsequent infections than care home size and accounted for 1.8% of infected discharge events. We also showed that community prevalence, inpatient appointments and people living with dementia all contributed to increased risks of catching COVID in a care home.
ConclusionThe response of the ‘One Wales’ team and the SAIL linked data platform facilitated meaningful insight on the impacts of COVID in social care settings in Wales. The evidence generated was used by policy makers from Welsh and UK Governments to inform policy direction as the pandemic progressed.
Comparing socio-economic measures as predictors of educational attainment.
Authors: Huxley Katy , Davies Rhys , Foster Catherine , Taylor Chris
Published: September 2022

Objectives and ApproachFree School Meals (FSM) has commonly been used as a proxy for economic disadvantage or low socio-economic background within educational research in the UK, as eligibility is based upon receipt of government welfare benefits. It is also used by government in funding decisions for schools. However, in December 2021 the Welsh Government announced that the offer of FSM will be expanded to all pupils in primary schools, meaning that this measure will no longer be available as a proxy. Our objective is therefore to considers the potential of other administrative sources of socio-economic information to fill this gap. Linking administrative education data and Census 2011 data for Wales, we undertook descriptive and regression analyses to consider how Census measures of deprivation act compared to the FSM measure in predicting attainment.
ResultsOur descriptive results show that not all pupils who are eligible for FSM are captured by the Census measures. However, our regression results indicate that socio-economic indicators from the Census – namely highest household qualification, approximated social grade and economic inactivity – all behave in a similar fashion to that of the proxy measure, FSM in association with pupil attainment.
ConclusionWe consider results in comparison to studies using survey data, and discuss implications for the future measurement of economic disadvantage in Wales among primary school pupils.
Longitudinal study of diabetes prevalence and hospitalisations among care experienced and general population children in Scotland: evidence of an end of care “cliff edge”?
Authors: Allik Mirjam , Leyland Alastair , Henderson Marion
Published: September 2022

ObjectivesCare experienced people have poorer health in UK and internationally, but the direction of causation is debated. Using longitudinal cross-sectoral data linkage we explore if inequalities in diabetes prevalence and hospitalisation are present before entering care or develop during or after leaving care.
ApproachHealth and social care data were linked for 13,830 care experienced children (CEC) and together with 649,771 general population children (GPC) their prescriptions and hospitalisations were followed from birth between 1990-2004 to study end in 2016. Diabetes prevalence was estimated as at least one prescription   or inpatient hospitalisation for diabetes. We compared hospitalisation percentages and rates in the two cohorts by age and gender. Results from multivariable models adjusted for socioeconomic status, age, gender, care type/length, local authority, and comorbidities will be presented at conference.
ResultsDiabetes prevalence was similar in both cohorts and higher in females. However, CEC had twice as many hospitalisations as GPC. Mean hospitalisations were highest among care experienced males (6 compared to 3.6 in females and 2 in GPC). 24% of CEC were hospitalised 3-9 times and 13% 10+ times, for GPC these were 19% and 3% respectively. Hospitalisation rates increase with age in both cohorts, as do differences between cohorts. At ages 0-4 hospitalisation rates are similar, by ages 12-15 CEC have twice as high and at ages 18-27 4-times higher hospitalisation rates. Among CEC, across all ages hospitalisation rates are lower while the child is in care, with the lowest rates in foster care. Hospitalisation rates are highest before entering and after leaving care.
ConclusionResults for diabetes hospitalisations suggest that being in care can be good for children’s health. However, a sudden withdrawal of support can create a “cliff edge” and health may deteriorate after leaving care. Data linkage has significant potential to inform policy and practice, including supporting CEC after leaving care.
Evaluation of a Sore throat Test and tReat servicE in community Pharmacies (STREP).
Authors: Turner Samantha , Ahmed Haroon , Akbari Ashley , Bethel Jackie , Cannings-John Rebecca , Evans Andrew , Mantzourani Efi
Published: September 2022

ObjectivesA Sore Throat Test and Treat (STTT) service was introduced in selected community pharmacies to screen against Streptococcus A and appropriately treat infections, relieving pressure on General Practices (GP). The long-term impact on patient and NHS outcomes is unclear. A robust evaluation is required to inform future policy and roll-out.
ApproachA matched cohort study comparing patients who received an STTT consultation in community pharmacy (exposed) compared to consultation with GP (unexposed). Individual-level data from participating STTT pharmacies were extracted from the Choose Pharmacy IT platform, anonymised and acquired into the Secure Anonymised Information Linkage (SAIL) Databank. Both cohorts were linked to other longitudinal health and administrative data within SAIL to create study outcomes (e.g. antibiotic prescribing, re-consultation, attendance/admission at Emergency Department/hospital). The impact of the STTT service was evaluated by modelling the outcomes using logistic regression to calculate odds ratios.
Results7553 patients exposed to the STTT service (8,313 consultations) in community pharmacies in Cwm Taf Morgannwg and Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Boards between 1st November 2018 and 28th February 2020, were successfully anonymised and acquired into the SAIL Databank (97.16%). 99.5% of these individuals were then linked to the Welsh Demographic Service Dataset (WDSD), enabling demographics to be generated. 6,665 distinct consultations remained in the exposed group after exclusion criteria were applied.  A matched unexposed cohort will be created, and odds ratios will be presented to compare the risk of each outcome for those exposed to the STTT service compared to usual care.
ConclusionThis innovative study is the first to link national pharmacy service data to individual-level population-scale longitudinal health and administrative data in the SAIL Databank. Our findings will inform clear and actionable recommendations regarding the service design and future roll-out of STTT services across the UK and internationally.

Published: September 2022

ObjectivesUnder section 31 (s.31) of the UK Children Act 1989, public law care proceedings can be issued if there is concern a child is subject to, or at risk of significant harm. We examined health vulnerabilities of parents involved in public law care proceedings in the two-year period prior to involvement.
ApproachOur study created an anonymised individual-level population-based cohort, with a matched comparison group of parents in Wales who were not subject to care proceedings, matched on age, sex and deprivation. Family court data provided by Cafcass Cymru were linked to population-level healthcare records held within the Secure Anonymised Information Linkage (SAIL) Databank. Demographic characteristics, overall health service use and health profiles of parents of children subject to s.31 care proceedings between 2011 and 2019 were examined.
ResultsData were available for 8,821 parents involved in care proceedings between 2011 and 2019, with a comparison group of 32,006 parents. Nearly half (47.6%) of cohort parents resided in the most deprived quintile. Higher levels of healthcare use were found for cohort mothers and fathers compared to the comparison group across multiple healthcare settings, with the most pronounced differences for emergency department attendances (59.3% vs 37.0%). Health conditions with the largest variation between groups were related to mental health (43.6% vs 16.0%), substance use (19.4% vs 1.6%) and injuries (41.5% vs 23.6%).
ConclusionThis study highlights the heightened socioeconomic and health vulnerabilities of parents who experience care proceedings concerning a child. Better understanding of the needs and vulnerabilities of this population may provide opportunities to improve a range of support and preventative interventions that respond to crises in the community.
Give and take? The unexpected benefits of public engagement as an end-in-itself social practice in the Aberdeen Children of the 1950s cohort study.
Authors: Adamczyk Krzysztof , Paranjothy Shantini , Johnston Marjorie
Published: September 2022

ObjectivesPublic engagement in cohort studies is instrumental to recruitment and retention. However, instead of framing engagement as a means to an end, we advocate for an end in itself approach that attempts to meaningfully share the shaping of the narrative of the cohort with its members.
ApproachThrough an annual postal newsletter, we recruited five cohort members to lead the creation of a digital exhibition about the Aberdeen Children of the 1950s cohort. Our co-curators worked with us and a museum curator to design a narrative-driven overview of the cohort and its members’ lives. Additionally, we sent out a questionnaire (by email) asking cohort members about future research directions (n = 741) including a question: “Are there any other aspects of life during the pandemic that you think should be researched?”. Both activities aimed to contribute qualitative textual material to be drawn upon in this largely quantitative study.
ResultsThe digital exhibition was unexpectedly well received, becoming the most visited in the university’s collection. Co-curators emphasized the socio-historical embeddedness of the cohort, sharing experiences of growing up in times of Aberdeen’s booming oil economy. We garnered media attention in newspaper articles and interest from TV producers. Research enabled by the cohort featured in two documentaries, with two cohort members appearing in one.
The questionnaire yielded a response rate of 61%, with just under half providing answers to the open-ended question. Participants found mental health to be of the highest priority to research, contextualizing their rationales in free-text answers (27 mentions). Some of the most common themes included: comparisons with the typhoid epidemic in Aberdeen in the 1960s (9 mentions), and financial struggles (9 mentions).
ConclusionPublic engagement as an end-in-itself social practice is a powerful way to give agency to research participants. Qualitative contextual material can help researchers to ground their quantitative analyses in historical contexts housing populations which may be essential for interpretation and translation of findings to meaningful policies.
Perceptions and experiences on data sharing and linkage for research and the evaluation of public health policy.
Authors: De Araujo Almeida Bethania , Pimenta Denise Moraes , Barreto Mauricio
Published: September 2022

ObjectivesThis research seeks to understand viewpoints on the use of data containing personally identifiable information by a range of organizations for divergent purposes, focusing on the sharing and linkage of administrative data for the purposes of conducting research and evaluating public policies in Brazil.
ApproachAn exploratory approach was employed to perceive how the concepts relevant to this subject are understood, experienced and expressed by our interlocutors. A semi-structured interview technique was chosen to establish a base of scripted questions capable of building on and adapting to discussions with the participants, as well as addressing the questions that emerged during interviews. The interviewees were divided into three groups: data subjects (patients and beneficiaries of social welfare programs), researchers, and managers with experience in public policy in the areas of health and social protection. Specific scripts were elaborated for each group of respondents.
ResultsGroups and individuals are constantly balancing risks and benefits with regard to exposing and sharing their data; risks weigh more heavily depending on the individual’s socioeconomic context, which is permeated by intersectionality. The processing of personal data by the government raises more fears than actions taken by large technology companies. Individuals and social groups want to receive feedback on research carried out in their communities, and also desire to participate in the design of scientific research and the analysis of evidence used to guide public policies which directly affect them. Data governance is indispensable, requiring not only data management but also specific conditions on data sharing and linkage, principally regarding the sharing of administrative data aligned with legitimate public interests.
ConclusionRaising awareness and providing information on individual and collective rights on personal and sensitive data collection, as well as informing the public about the purposes of data sharing and linkage, is of utmost importance for responsible data management.  Administrative data governance should be planned and implemented to foster trust and transparency among all involved and interested parties.

Authors: Gutiérrez Villalobos Marcela Alejandra , Bedolla Solano Ramón , Brito Carmona Rosa María , Sampedro Rosas María Laura , Bedolla Solano Juan José , Sánchez Adame Oscar
Published: September 2022

El presente trabajo de investigación se llevó a cabo en el año 2020, durante la pandemia, con una muestra por conveniencia, y tuvo como objetivo evaluar el nivel de sustentabilidad de una escuela secundaria general ubicada en Las Vigas, Guerrero, México. El estudio se dividió en tres partes. La primera consistió en el análisis del grado de vinculación del Plan de Estudios de Educación Básica 2011 de la Secretaría de Educación Pública con la sustentabilidad; la segunda, se aplicó una encuesta a docentes y estudiantes para identificar conocimientos ambientales, y la tercera, se relaciona con la aplicación de una auditoría ambiental enfocada a identificar los principales problemas y necesidades de la escuela. Los resultados demostraron una escasa vinculación del Plan de estudios 2011 con la dimensión ambiental, una vinculación parcial con lo social y una vinculación fuerte con la dimensión económica. En la encuesta, los estudiantes mostraron mayor conocimiento ambiental que los docentes, pero, aun así, se identificó un bajo nivel de compromiso generalizado con el uso racional de recursos naturales. La auditoría ambiental evidenció problemas en la disposición de agua de la llave, baños en malas condiciones, carencia de instalaciones de drenaje, cableado eléctrico escaso y muy pocas acciones de manejo de residuos sólidos urbanos. Por todo lo anterior, se llegó a la conclusión de que la escuela se encuentra en un nivel bajo de cumplimiento con la sustentabilidad.
Alles neu

Published: September 2022

Die Lebensdauer von Geschäftsmodellen verkürzt sich zusehends. Heute sehen sich Unternehmen mit der Tatsache konfrontiert, dass im Durchschnitt etwa alle zehn Jahre ein bestehendes Geschäftsmodell durch ein neues abgelöst werden muss, wenn das Unternehmen erfolgreich bleiben will. Die Autoren erinnern an den grundlegenden Tatbestand, dass Unternehmen dort benötigt werden, wo ein Nutzen gestiftet werden soll, den eine Einzelperson nicht erwirken kann. Sie zeigen einerseits auf ganzheitliche Art und Weise die vielfältigen Herausforderungen der Unternehmen in einer äußerst dynamischen und disruptiven Umwelt auf. Gleichzeitig beschreiben sie Wege zu Lösungen, die nicht nur das betriebswirtschaftliche Problem lösen, sondern auch den Blick auf die ganzheitliche Verantwortung und werteorientiertes Handeln richtet. Das Buch stellt heraus, dass mittel- und langfristig der Unternehmenserfolg sichergestellt werden kann, wenn sich das Geschäftsmodell mit symbiotischen Mehrwertschöpfungen an den universellen Erfolgsprinzipien ausrichtet, mit denen die Natur ihre Austauschprozesse organisiert.

Narratives of Bilingual Parents on the Real-Life Use of English Language: Materials for English Language Teaching Curriculum
Authors: V. Chavez Jason
Published: September 2022

This study aimed to absorb the narratives from the parents on the using of the English Language in terms of utilizing their stories in the different levels of curriculum development, such as teaching activities and strategies. The study analyzed the narratives on their diverse experiences with the English Language and how these stories can contribute to the development of the English Language Teaching (ELT) curriculum. This study was exploratory research that used narratives of bilingual parents from Zamboanga City, Philippines, as the foundation for real-life application of the English language. Forty (40) bilingual parents, who have children as learners of the English Language, were interviewed extensively to navigate their experiences in their real professional lives to extract important stories where the use of the English Language was important for many purposes. Results revealed that the narratives of the bilingual parents, which included real-life examples of using the English Language, can contribute to a better curriculum design for ELT, relevant and timely production of learning materials, and better training programs for teachers on activities and teaching strategies. These narratives are collaborative materials for the schools to consider in designing the English Language Teaching Curriculum.

Authors: Nikitin O. V.
Published: September 2022

The article presents unknown evidence of epistolary communication of S. I. Ozhegov and his “correspondents” — Professor A. M. Egolin, Prince P. Obolenskiy, Mr Nedzvetskiy. The linguistic informativeness of the letters is noted. The value of the presented materials for the study of lexicology, stylistics, author’s punctuation and speech culture is indicated. Attention is drawn to the range of problems discussed in the letters, including the selection and interpretation of definitions in dictionaries (pilyonyi sakhar ‘sawn sugar’, plavlenyi syr ‘processed cheese’, gromootvod ‘lightning rod’), haplology, the formation of appellatives from the names of writers (nekrasovoved or nekrasoved), social and phonetic adaptation of foreign language vocabulary (t’emp — temp), etc. The facts given in the correspondence are commented on from the standpoint of the history of philological science, the necessary references are given, possible comparisons are made with the events and persons mentioned in the epistolary. The texts are evaluated as a fragment of a special linguistic picture of the world, in which the main place is occupied by the linguistic personality of S. I. Ozhegov, who attracted scientists of different schools and generations. The conclusion is made about the relevance of the publication of archival sources that reveal interesting circumstances of the scientific life of philologists, exposing their searches and discoveries. These materials supplement the available information about the linguistic discussions of the 1950s and 1960s, represent living portraits of scientists.

Particular attention is paid to the historical context, as well as the peculiarities of the development of the media institution itself. The novelty of the study is seen in the fact that a comprehensive study of the relationship between regional authorities and the print media on the materials of the Rostov region has not been previously carried out, a number of previously unpublished archival documents have been introduced into scientific circulation. It has been established that by 1991, horizontal ties had arisen and strengthened in the Don media, new approaches to interaction with state authorities began to take shape. A new generation of professional journalists who were actively involved in politics (they were elected to representative bodies of power at various levels), the development of commercial advertising began.

As an important ecosystem type in the coastal zone, mangroves have important ecological functions, such as maintaining coastal biodiversity, preventing wind and consolidating the coast, promoting silt and building land. It is of great significance to understand the protected status of mangroves in the context of climate change and rapid urbanization. Based on the mangrove classification data from remote sensing interpretation, through vacancy analysis, the in-situ protection status of mangroves in China is analyzed. The results show that the total area of mangroves distributed in China is 264 km2 (excluding the statistical data of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan), of which 61.4% are protected in natural reserves. In terms of the main provinces where mangroves are distributed, the mangrove area distributed in Hainan Province is small but the protection proportion is high, while the mangrove area distributed in Guangxi and Guangdong Province is large but the proportion of protected areas is relatively low. Among the three mangrove types, Rhizophora apiculate-Xylocarpus granatum and Rhizophora stylosa-Bruguiera gymnorrhiza had high proportions (>90%) covered by reserves, but relatively small areas. In contrast, Kandelia candel-Aegiceras corniculatum-Avicennia marina had relatively low reserve coverage (52.6%), but a large area. The study puts forward the key areas of mangrove distribution outside the nature reserve, and suggests that they should be protected by delimiting ecological protection red lines.
