Precipitation has a chance to spread heterogeneously across the globe, the altercations between the radiation balance in the zonal bands and the association with atmospheric dynamics make it possible to distinguish the globally diffused rainfall regimes. The objective is to statistically analyze the buoyancy of precipitation in the area of ​​the Ipojuca River basin - PE as a feeder source for the hydrological systems of the State of Pernambuco. Simplified statistical parameters were used to calculate mean, standard deviation, coefficient of variance, maximum and minimum absolute rainfall, annual rainfall amplitude and its anomalies for the period 1962-2017. There is increasing variability of annual and monthly precipitation. The variability is greatest during the spring and summer seasons and lowest in the winter and autumn seasons. Positive and negative anomalies were recorded in 7 and 18 municipalities respectively. Knowledge of local weather conditions on the occurrence of extreme rainfall events allows for the improvement of seasonal forecasts, and helps decision-makers in government agencies to avoid or minimize natural disasters. It is verified that the local rainfall pattern is under the influence of several precipitating systems that contribute to the quantity of local precipitation and their contributions are interconnected to the local and regional meso and micro scale systems, interacting with the use and land cover.

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the early (nine months after surgery) synthesis of the posterior malleolus by direct posterior (P) approach versus the percutaneous anteroposterior (AP) screw in trimalleolar ankle fractures to analyze the early clinical status of the patient (eight months) by studying the American Orthopedic Foot And Ankle Society (AOFAS) scale to compare postsurgical clinical recovery between both approaches, the rate of hospital days in both groups, the quality of joint reduction by computed tomography (CT) study and the rate of most frequent complications (fibular tendinopathy and surgical wound). Methods: A retrospective comparative study was performed between 2016-2020, including 94 patients with trimalleolar ankle fracture type 44-A/B/C (27 percutaneous AP surgical treatment and 67 P approach). Both groups were compared by analyzing demographic variables, clinical-functional status, radiological variables, and complications. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS-20, with a p-value of 0.05 as significance. Results: Demographically, both groups were comparable, not finding significant differences between them. An increase in the days of admission before surgery was observed in the P approach with a mean of 4 (p=0.001). No significant clinical differences were found in the AOFAS scale, with a mean of 85 in both groups. Regarding the radiological result, a better reduction was observed with P approach (good=57, fair=9, poor=0) compared to the AP approach (good=10, fair=7, poor=9) (p=0.001). As for the complications, no significant differences were observed for the surgical wound. However, a higher need for fibular plate removal could be observed with P approach (n=17) (p=0.046). Conclusions: Clinically, both groups observed no significant differences through the AOFAS scale. The posterolateral approach has a higher rate of hospital days before surgery. Radiologically, a better joint reduction is achieved by a direct approach to the posterior fragment. Level of Evidence III; Retrospective Comparative Study.

Authors: Kang Song Gun , Kim Kwang Chol , Ryom Sok Chol , Ri Jin Hyok
Published: September 2022

In this paper, an effective method for the classification process simulation in 75¬mm hydrocyclone is considered. The simulation results and computational time are compared using Reynolds stress model (RSM) and different large eddy simulation (LES) subgrid-scale models as turbulence models, and the volume of fluid model (VOF) as a multiphase model. The Lagrangian discrete phase model (DPM) is used to simulate the classification process of particles. As the experimental result for comparison of simulation results, Hsieh's experimental data are used. When the different LES subgrid-scale models are used, the solution converges stably by various solution convergence methods without increasing the grid numbers or reducing the size of time steps than RSM model. As a result, it is confirmed that when an appropriate simulation method is applied with the LES-WMLES S-Omega model, more accurate axial water flow velocity distribution and particle classification simulation results can be obtained at a computational cost similar to that of using the RSM model.
Developing a Commercial Press in Petersburg and Moscow: Institutions and Networks of Journalism under Alexander I and the Early Reign of Nicholas I
Authors: Raykhlina Yelizaveta
Published: September 2022

The article explores the kinds of institutions and networks that promoted a reading economy in periodicals in Moscow and Petersburg in the first third of the nineteenth century. The article examines why Petersburg experienced a dramatic growth in periodical publishing during this time period, and what factors constrained Moscow’s periodical publishing market. Looking at official institutions, public social venues, and individual journalists like Nikolai Grech, Faddei Bulgarin, and Osip Senkovskii, the article argues that institutional support and a thickening of public and private networks enabled the rise of a commercial and professional press in the 1820s. To bring the rise of Petersburg journalism into sharper relief, the article also examines the early career of Nikolai Polevoi and the circumstances constraining Moscow publishing in the first third of the nineteenth century. The article draws on recent scholarship examining the press as an “infrastructure” or “network” itself, as well as on theories of the press as part of a “network of means” regulating information and communication.

Authors: Büyükbayraktar Fatma Nur
Published: September 2022

The effects of the changes experienced with the Covid-19 pandemic on the education-teaching process have been the subject of many studies. It is seen that researches generally focus on distance education. On the other hand, with the decrease of the effect of the pandemic, face-to-face education started. In this process, teachers are expected to transfer their distance education experiences to face-to-face education environments. In this study, the effects of distance education on face-to-face education environment were investigated. Within the scope of the qualitative case study, the opinions of students and teachers who shared the same teaching environment during face-to-face education before distance education, face-to-face education after distance education and post-distance education were taken. The study group consists of twelve students who study in a high school affiliated to the Ministry of National Education in Türkiye/Ordu and are selected on a voluntary basis, in accordance with the purposeful sampling qualifications, and the teachers who attend the classes of these students. From the analysis of the interview data, findings such as the opinions of students and teachers about the face-to-face education environment, in-class communication, and materials used in teaching environments were obtained. It was concluded that the content used by the teachers on the smart board became richer after the distance education. However, it was determined that the teachers did not use a new application in the process. It has been determined that some students have different expectations about education life as a result of their distance education experiences.

Published: September 2022

The cause of Hospital Acquired Pneumonia (HAP) is bacteria from dental plaque, colonizing with other pulmonary pathogens. This condition builds rational pathogen respiration in the oral cavity resulting in high-risk pneumonia. The risk group for HAP is over 70 years old, who have serious co-morbidities, malnutrition, decreased consciousness, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Prevention of nosocomial infections requires integrated and programmed actions to reduce the transmission of organisms. This study aims to develop a model of dental and oral health care for inpatients to prevent the occurrence of HAP in the elderly. This study was conducted in the geriatric ward of Mukomuko Hospital, Bengkulu Province, Indonesia. The product test used a quasi-experimental pretest and posttest design. The sample of this study was each 16 respondents in the intervention group receiving dental and oral care and the control group receiving treatment as per the dental health national standard Indonesia Kepmenkes No.284, 2006. The results show that dental and oral care is relevant to prevent HAP with an average value of 88.4 (feasible) (p-value 0.001, and its application is effective in increasing knowledge (p=0.000) ),attitude (0.000), increased brushing skills (p = 0.000), gargle skills (p-value 0.000), decreased debris index score (p = 0.000), decreased CPIS respondents with (p = 0.000) and sputum culture results ( p = 0.000) compared to the control group. In conclusion, dental and oral health care can increase the skills of maintaining dental oral health, reduce the debris index and CPIS (Clinical Pulmonary Infection Score) for the elderly.

Published: September 2022

Groundwater is a vital resource for the drinking water supply to the people in the areas residing in the coastal zones. Rapid industrialization increased the human population, and anthropogenic activities led to groundwater pollution. The water quality should be continuously monitored to analyse the suitability of the water, and it is only possible by the water quality index. In the current study, we attempted to determine the groundwater quality of the Mandal headquarters of the coastal zones of the Srikakulam district, Andhra Pradesh, by using the water quality index (WQi) considering the parameters pH, Electrical conductivity, Total Dissolved Solids, Total Hardness, calcium and magnesium, potassium, and sodium, human health assessment tool, and multivariate statistical analysis. The results found that the WQi of the coastal zones ranged from 49.6 to 361.7, and in the post-monsoon season, the Etcherla Mandal station water was not advisable for drinking. Human health risk assessment showed that children in these sampling stations are more prone to the non-carcinogenic health risks associated with nitrate pollution. Proper reduction measures in the sampling areas must be taken to depreciate nitrate and seepage into the groundwater. Piper plots and correlation matrices showed the anion-cation interaction, and the principal component analyzed and showed the pollution sources. The current study concluded that anthropogenic activities continuously deteriorate groundwater quality, indirect saltwater intrusion was identified, and groundwater treatment is necessary before consumption.

The purpose of this study was to examine the various sulphur (S) fractions in experimental pot calcareous soil treated with Bio sulphur granules (BSG) in order to assess the impact of granular sulphur fertilization in S deficient calcareous soil using blackgram (Var. VBN-8) as a test crop.Factorial randomized block design with ten treatments (T1- Absolute control;T2-Recommended dose of NPK and S (Control);T3-Soil test based NPK; T4-T3 + S as Elemental Sulphur @ 40 kg S/ha; T5-T3 + S as BSGI@ 40 kg S/ha; T6-T3 + S as BSGII@ 40 kg S/ha;T7-T3 + Vermicompost @ 4 t ha-1; T8-T4  + Vermicompost @ 4 t ha-1;T9- T5 + Vermicompost @ 4 t ha-1; T10- T6+ Vermicompost @ 4 t ha-1 ) replicated thrice and 5 pots were maintained for each replication. The results of this study revealed that there was an upward trend in all S fractions in every treatment (T1 to T10), in the following order: organic > inorganic > water soluble > exchangeable S. The pot that received vermicompost coupled with BSG II (T10) (ES@ 40 kg ha-1 and MethylobacteriumthiocyanatumVRI7-A4 as S source) was found to have the greatest S-fraction and was higher than other treatments. Therefore, using BSG II in conjunction with vermicompost is necessary to preserve the availability of S nutrients in calcareous soil and increase the solubility of nutrients through S-oxidation.

Published: September 2022

Drought stress poses a serious threat to production and nutritional security. In recent years, foliar application of plant growth regulators (PGRs) and nutrients are increasingly employed to overcome physiological constraints resulting in enhanced crop production. Melatonin is a new biomolecule recently found to ameliorate the effect of biotic and abiotic stresses in crop plants. Hence, the present experiment was conducted to assess the optimum concentration of melatonin to mitigate the adverse effect of drought stress on germination and growth components in rice variety CO-54. In this experiment, PEG-mediated drought stress (-0.5 MPa) was imposed with different concentrations of melatonin (at doses of 50, 100, 150, 200, and 250 µM) seed treatments. Together, these results indicated that 200 µM melatonin-treated seeds showed a greater germination percentage (60%), root length (12.23cm), shoot length (8.23cm), fresh and dry weight (0.126g and 0.095g), high vigor index (1910.22), promptness index (64.83), and germination stress index (100) respectively. The result of this experiment provides a shred of strong evidence suggesting that seed treatment of 200 µM melatonin could be considered an effective technique for mitigating the detrimental effects of drought by promoting seed germination and thereby increasing the growth components of seedlings in rice. The study demonstrates that melatonin can shield rice seedlings from the effects of drought stress.

Atatürk, Stratejik Planlama ve Kentbilim
Authors: MEYDAN YILDIZ Seçil Gül
Published: September 2022

Strateji kavramı felsefi olarak yöneldiği hedefine, planlama kavramı ile birleştiğinde ulaşmakta olup kullanımı dünyada 1960’larda başlayan ancak içerik ve kapsam açısından 1980’lerin sosyal, ekonomik ve politik değişim ve dönüşüm yapısından etkilenerek gelişen ve yaygınlaşan bir kavramdır. Ülkemizde 21. yüzyılda tüm kamu kurum ve kuruluşlarında uygulanması için yasallaştırılan stratejik planlama yaklaşımı esasen Mustafa Kemal Atatürk’ün yaşam biçimidir. Yaptığı tüm eylemlerde, aldığı kararlarda ve söylemlerinde planlamanın önemini ve gerekliliğini vurgulayan Atatürk, yıllar öncesinden stratejik planlama yaklaşımıyla dünyaya ışık tutmuştur. Cumhuriyetin ilk yıllarında Atatürk’ün ekonomi, kültürel yaşam ve çevre için öngördüğü ilkeler ve kararlar bugün tüm dünya ülkelerinin uygulamaya çalıştığı stratejik planlama yaklaşımıyla örtüşmektedir. Atatürk’ü öğrenmek, örnek almak ve rol model seçmek bizi kandırılmaktan, başarısızlıktan ve geri kalmışlıktan kurtaracak tek yoldur. O’nun her cümlesi sonsuz derinliğe ve anlama sahip olup uğraş alanına göre yorumlanarak bir amaç olarak benimsenmelidir. Bu doğrultuda Sayın Prof. Dr. Ruşen Keleş’in 1983 yılında “Atatürk, Çağdaş Ankara ve Kentbilim” çalışmasından yola çıkarak “Atatürk, Stratejik Planlama ve Kentbilim” başlıklı bu çalışma hazırlanmıştır. Bu çalışmada Mustafa Kemal Atatürk’ün stratejik dehasından yararlanarak mekânsal, kentsel, çevresel ve yönetimsel yapıda yaşadığımız sorunların kaynağının ve çözüm yollarının saptanması amaçlanmaktadır.

Framework for energy transformation
Authors: Khuc Quy Van , Tran Phuong-Mai
Published: September 2022

We propose and adopt an energy saving conceptual framework which contains three parts: the energy conversion system, the socio-ecological system, and global environmental changes. The framework shapes our research in several ways. First, it recognises the role of young people (students) as an active player in energy consumption and carbon emissions. In years to come, they will be major decision-makers in energy use; hence, their choice of action would have a long-term effect. For example, they might decide to use energy-efficient appliances in their houses, or as a business owner, they might opt for eco-friendly office design and issue ‘green office’ guideline. If these were the case, energy consumption would be reduced significantly. For a problem that requires such complicated and time-consuming efforts as global warming to be addressed, the participation of young people would be the key to success. This enables us to target young people and investigate their responses to global environmental issues in general and climate change-related policies in particular. Second, it draws the attention to the role of education in raising environmental awareness which potentially leads to pro-environmental behaviours, especially of young people, in the long term (Van Khuc, 2022a, 2022b, 2022d). Based on these characteristics, the framework also supports the construction of young people decision models in the following sections.

No Impaired Integration in Psychopathy: Evidence from an Illusory Conjunction Paradigm
Authors: Gunschera Lukas J. , Verschuere Bruno , Murphy Robin , Temple-McCune Alexander , Dutton Kevin , Fox Elaine
Published: September 2022

Progress in psychopathy research has been hampered by ongoing contention about its fundamental cause. The Impaired Integration theory of psychopathy provides an attention-based account of information integration abnormalities. We set out to evaluate the suggested mechanism via an innovative application of the well-established illusory conjunction paradigm (Treisman & Gelade, 1980). Two hundred participants were recruited by utilising a psychopathic- trait-maximisation technique, sampling individuals from an ex-prisoner and a population sample. We found no support for information integration deficits in psychopathic individuals (BF10 = 0.156), and the absence of a relationship between psychopathic traits and illusory conjunctions remained when accounting for confounding variables. These findings question the mechanism proposed by the Impaired Integration theory and pave the way for future research to advance our understanding of psychopathic trait aetiology by assessing specific and falsifiable mechanisms thought to bring about the observed cognitive and behavioural deficits.
Effects of digital chatbot on gender beliefs and exposure to intimate partner violence among young women in South Africa

Published: September 2022

Background: South Africa has among the highest rates of intimate partner violence (IPV) globally, with young women at heightened risk due to inequitable gender roles, limited relationship skills, and inadequate social support. Despite an urgent need for violence prevention in low- and middle-income settings, most efficacious approaches are time-intensive and costly to deliver. Digital, interactive chatbots may help young women navigate safer relationships and develop healthier gender beliefs and skills. Methods: Young women (18-24 years old) across South Africa were recruited via Facebook for participation in an individually randomised controlled trial (n=19,643) during the period of June 2021-September 2021. Users were randomly allocated, using a pipeline algorithm, to one of four trial arms: Pure Control (PC) had no user engagement outside of study measures; Attention Treatment (T0) provided didactic information about sexual health through a text-based chatbot; Gamified Treatment (T1) was a behaviorally-informed gamified text-based chatbot; Narrative Treatment (T2) was a behaviorally-informed drama delivered through pre-recorded voice notes. All chatbots were delivered in WhatsApp, through which users were invited to complete brief “quizzes” comprising adapted versions of validated scales. A direct chat link to a trained counsellor was a safety measure (accessed by 4·5% of the sample). Primary outcomes were adapted validated scales of gender beliefs and past-month IPV. Secondary outcomes were identification of unhealthy relationship behaviors and depressive symptoms. We estimated treatment effects using ordinary least squares and heteroskedasticity robust standard errors.Findings: Compared to control, all treatments were effective in improving gender beliefs (Cohen’s D=0·10, 0·29, 0·20 for T0, T1, and T2, respectively). The gamified chatbot (T1) had small but significant effects on IPV: 56% of young women reported past-month IPV, compared to 62% among those without treatment (marginal effects=-0·07, 95%CI=-0·09to-0·05). The narrative treatment (T2) had no effect on IPV exposure. T1 significantly increased identification of unhealthy relationship behaviors (Cohen’s D=0·25). Neither T1 nor T2 had a measurable effect on mental health, nor did either treatment arm cause mental distress.Interpretation: A behaviorally-informed, gamified chatbot increased gender equitable beliefs and skills and was protective for IPV exposure among young women in South Africa. These effects, while modest in magnitude, could represent a meaningful impact given potential to scale the low-cost intervention.
Effect of Color–Shape Associations on visual feature discrimination
Authors: Chen Na , Watanabe Katsumi
Published: September 2022

Non-synesthetes exhibit a tendency to associate specific shapes with particular colors (i.e., circle–red, triangle–yellow, and square–blue). Here, we used two Go/No-go tasks to examine the congruency priming effect of color-shape associations on recognition efficiency of color and shape features. At the beginning of each trial, a target color or shape word was introduced, followed by a colored-shape visual stimulus. Participants were required to press a key to a target stimulus (“go” cues), while withholding their responses to a non-target stimulus (“no-go” cues). The targets were presented either visually (visual word, Experiment 1) or auditorily (spoken word, Experiment 2). Results showed a congruency effect of color-shape associations on recognition efficiency for color and shape features in both experiments. Response times were shorter in congruent than incongruent conditions, that a target could be recognized faster when it was presented with the congruent visual features than with incongruent ones, irrespective of the presentation form (visual or auditory). These results suggest that color-shape associations can be strong to influence visual recognition of color and shape features.
Who Are the Stakeholders in Platform Governance?
Authors: Gorwa Robert
Published: September 2022

The goal of this essay is to more systemically explore the key actors involved in platform governance than has been done so far. What exactly does it mean to be a “governance stakeholder” — and how does it matter for our frames of analysis as to who and what is centered in such definitions? Who are the key “platform governance stakeholders”? And what combinations of actors matter in different domains of platform governance? This essay engages directly with these questions by presenting a typology of platform governance stakeholders intended to help structure more systematic thinking about the politics of platform capitalism on a global, trans-jurisdictional and trans-sectoral scale. Drawing on a brief review of extant literature in both global governance more generally and platform governance more specifically, I break down the key actors across four levels (“supra-organizational”, “organizational”, “sub-organizational”, “individual”) that correspond to various groupings of actors across different political and economic levels of analysis, from the individual worker all the way up to large constellations of firms, governments, or other actors. It then suggests that the relative importance of these actors will vary in their importance depending on the specific policy issue, the specific context, and the dominant platform type that is being discussed. 24 Yale J.L. & Tech. 493 Robert Gorwa (2022): Who Are the Stakeholders in Platform Governance?

Nevertheless, They Persisted: How Patterns of Opposition and Support Shaped the Survival of U.S. Abortion Clinics
Authors: Piazza Alessandro , Augustine Grace L.
Published: September 2022

Stigmatized organizations are generally assumed to face a variety of unique operational challenges. This paper examines the survival of stigmatized organizations in light of such challenges. Specifically, we investigate how patterns of opposition and support from multiple external stakeholders and audiences affect organizational survival within the context of abortion provision in the United States. We use a fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) to examine the causal linkages between the above factors and the survival outcomes of the full identifiable industry of 983 abortion clinics that were in operation in the U.S. between 2011 and 2017. Our results reveal the existence of multiple paths to survival, based primarily on either the absence of overt opposition or the presence of factors like political support that enabled organizations to overcome other threats to survival. Our findings show how socio-political factors affect the survival of organizations in stigmatized industries.

The condition of the Covid-19 pandemic is also a condition in which MSMEs start to use financial technology for their operational interests. Since 2016, the user ofÂ  payment-based-fintech are 38%, while those who access deposits, lending, and capital raising-based-fintech are 31%. However, the increase is not accompanied by a good level of financial literacy education. There is a technology gap between urban and rural communities and also between users at a young age and over 35 years. The solution to the problem offered is by providing technology literacy education by introducing the financial technology industry to rural communities, especially for MSMEs in Ciwalen Panjalu Village. The purpose of this community service is introducing the importance of capital in business, fintech operational, educating of financial literacy and demonstrating to the MSMEs on the Sharia Peer-to-Peer Lending platform. The method of implementation starts with a needs analysis, the initial questionnaire, core activities, the final questionnaire, and the evaluation.
