COVID-19: Mitigation is good! Prophylactics are better! Treatment is the best!
Authors: Narayanasamy Prabagaran
Published: May 2020

COVID-19 can be grown in a lab but they can also naturally grow, develop, and spread from bats or rodents.Thorough diagnosis by different methods of testing, isolating the infected, and phased interaction with people are more advanced, societal-level mitigating efforts that could be implemented. Spices contain flavonoids, acetaminophen, and pseudoephedrine but these ingredients are natural and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents and cause no harm. Limited spicy-cooked meat or eggs are also good to boost the immune system. In addition, around 50,000 infections in a 250-mile radius could help to develop herd immunity, but this is only a prediction. One should visit their physician if they still have a high temperature/coughing. COVID-19, or SARS-CoV-2, is a new strain with gene sequences containing part of HIV and malaria genetic sequences in addition to SARS virus. COVID-19 also targets ACE2 receptor which is present in lungs, heart and kidneys. Remdesivir seems to be lowering the viral growth in some clinical studies in some conditions, but it is still understudied and ineffective at eradicating the virus. Recent reports predicted that around 15 Covid-19 mutants has arisen from the last 5 months. The new mutants could be more active or less active or drug resistant.
FIPS: An R Package for Biomathematical Modelling of Human Fatigue Related Impairment
Authors: Wilson Micah Kate , Strickland Luke Joseph Gough , Ballard Timothy
Published: May 2020

In many workplace contexts, accurate predictions of a human’s fatigue state can drastically improve system safety. Biomathematical models of fatigue (BMMs) are a family of dynamic phenomenological models that predict the neurobehavioural outcomes of fatigue (e.g., sleepiness, performance impairment) based on sleep/wake history (Dawson, Darwent, & Roach, 2017). However, to-date there are no open source implementations of BMMs, and this presents a significant barrier to their broadscale adoption by researchers and industry practitioners. FIPS is an open source R package (R Core Team, 2020) to facilitate BMM research and simulation. FIPS has implementations of several published bio-mathematical models and includes functions for easily manipulating sleep history data into the required data structures. FIPS also includes default plot and summary methods to aid model interpretation. Model objects follow tidy data conventions (Wickham, 2014), enabling FIPS to be integrated into existing research workflows of R users.
Consequences, norms, and inaction: A critical analysis
Authors: Baron Jonathan , Goodwin Geoffrey
Published: May 2020

Gawronski, Armstrong, Conway, Friesdorf and Hütter (2017, GACFH) presented a model of choices in utilitarian moral dilemmas, those in which following a moral principle or norm (the deontological response) leads to worse consequences than violating the principle (the utilitarian response). In standard utilitarian dilemmas, the utilitarian option involves action (which causes some harm in order to prevent greater harm), and the deontological response, omission. GACFH propose that responses in such dilemmas arise in three different ways: a psychological process leading to a deontological choice, a different process leading to a utilitarian choice, or a bias toward inaction or action. GACFH attempt to separate these three processes with new dilemmas in which action and omission are switched, and dilemmas in which the utilitarian and deontological processes lead to the same choice. They conclude that utilitarian and deontological responses are indeed separable, and that past research has missed this fact by treating them as naturally opposed. We argue that a bias toward harmful inaction is best understood as an explanation of deontological responding rather than as an alternative process. It thus should be included as an explanation of deontological responding, not an alternative response type. We also argue that GACFH's results can be largely explained in terms of subjects' unwillingness to accept the researchers' assumptions about which consequence is worse and which course of action is consistent with a moral norm. This problem is almost inherent in the attempt to switch act and omission while maintaining equivalent norms. We support this argument with data from experiments with new and old scenarios, in which we asked subjects to judge both norms and consequences. We also find that GACFH's results are not as consistent as they appear to be in the paper.pso
Effects of "chained" study on spontaneous relational discovery
Authors: Markant Douglas Benjamin
Published: May 2020

Prior knowledge of relational structure allows people to quickly make sense of and respond to new experiences. When awareness of such structure is not necessary to support learning, however, it is unclear when and why individuals “spontaneously discover” an underlying relational schema. The present study examines the determinants of such discovery in discrimination-based transitive inference (TI), whereby people learn about a hierarchy of interrelated premises and are tested on their ability to draw inferences that bridge studied associations. Experiencing “chained” sequences of overlapping premises during training was predicted to facilitate the discovery of relational structure. Among individuals without prior knowledge of the hierarchy, chaining improved relational learning and was most likely to result in explicit awareness of the underlying relations between items. These findings add to growing evidence that the temporal dynamics of training, including successive presentation of overlapping associations, are key to understanding spontaneous relational discovery during learning.
Mental distress among U.S. adults during the COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Twenge Jean , Joiner Thomas E.
Published: May 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic substantially changed daily life in ways that may impact mental health. This study compared a nationally representative online sample of 2,032 U.S. adults in late April 2020 to 19,330 U.S. adult internet users who participated in the 2018 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) using the Kessler-6 scale of mental distress in the last 30 days. Compared to the 2018 NHIS sample, U.S. adults in April 2020 were eight times more likely to fit criteria for serious mental illness (27.7% vs. 3.4%) and three times more likely to fit criteria for moderate or serious mental illness (70.4% vs. 22.0%). Differences between the 2018 and 2020 samples appeared across all demographic groups, with larger differences among younger adults and those with children in the household. These considerable levels of mental distress may portend substantial increases in diagnosed mental disorders and in the morbidity and mortality associated with them.

EFFECT OF FILL RATIO ON EVAPORATOR WALL TEMPERATURE IN A LOOP THERMOSYPHON USED IN ELECTRONIC COOLING APPLICATIONS
Authors: Ihsan Adnan Samah , Abdulrahman Ahmad Aouf , Adulamir Abdulrasool Adnan
Published: May 2020

This paper presents the effect of filling ratio on thermal performance;of a loop thermosyphon. The experimental setup consists of an evaporator, a condenser, a riser and a downcomer. The dimensions of the loop thermosyphon under consideration were chosen so that they are mostly suitable for use in the cooling of electronic components. Distilled water was used as a working fluid. Experiments were carried out to estimate the performance of the loop thermosyphon for a range of input power from 10 to 100 W. Four fill ratios were considered in the present work, namely; 15%, 25%, 50% and 85%. Results showed that the maximum value of wall temperature in evaporator was 95°C, at 100 W input power and 15% fill ratio. The fill ratio of 50% gave the minimum evaporator wall temperature which was 80°C. Increasing fill ratio tends to decrease the evaporator wall temperature for evaporator.

The thermal model of the test motor was done according to its design documents. The results obtained from Motor-CAD were verified by comparing it with that obtained from the finite element analysis taken from Flux2D software with a good agreement.
Participation in Public Administration Revisited
Authors: Đurman Petra
Published: May 2020

Participation has been a relevant issue in public administration research and theory for several decades, especially in old democracies. However, recent processes of globalization, Europeanization and digitalisation, coupled with diminishing citizens’ trust in public institutions, have again made the concept of public participation topical. The aim of this paper is to provide a theoretical reflection on the concept and substance of participation in public administration and on research efforts. In order to do so, administrative participation is first defined and distinguished from other types of participation in modern democracies (political and civil participation). Participation in public administration encompasses the processes through which the public is directly involved in regulative and implementation functions of administrative organizations, as well as in the oversight of their functioning. The three main categories of participation in public administration are elaborated – regulative, implementing and oversight participation – together with some apparent forms (instruments) within each category. The main principles upon which administrative participation is based are also explained – transparency, openness, responsiveness and trust. The final part of the paper contains an overview of the existing research and evaluation of participation in public administration. The twofold value of participation – intrinsic and instrumental – is explained, its potential benefits and shortcomings are listed, and a distinction between the process and outcome dimension of participation is elaborated. Although the literature has become rather extensive and refined, one can conclude that unambiguous findings on the practical effects of participation are still deficient, especially with regard to its dependence on different contextual – especially organizational – variables. Therefore, some conceptual and methodological observations for further research are formulated.

ABSTRACT

 

The prescribing proton pump inhibitors for longtime is a rational practice now adays. In some cases patiants with peptic ulcers have to take them for whole life. The patient should have to use PPIs and there is evolved distress for the strong antagonistic effects as a result of its continuous therapy. The first discovered proton pump inhibitor is omeprazole and after some time of discovery of omeprazole , the French gastroenterologist Jean Paul Galmiche has anticipating that the unprecedented clinical effectiveness of this medicine would have lead (patients and physicians alike) to dependence, and indeed, this is the case. Once  proton pump inhibitor PPI, used by large number  of patients for  long-term, the proton pump inhibitors, often , may result in bone weakness and sometimes cardiac distress. especially the mature women Even though PPIs being the ideal anti-secretory drugs and that innovative longer-acting compounds that developed  prolonged acid suppression and they stay, no doubt, the PPIs are prescribing in all age group and give very effective result in all  available medications

Authors: Asmat Tauseef M
Published: May 2020

Diarrhea is one of the major causes of death in children, particularly in developing countries. Rapid detection and treatment is necessary to control disease transmission in the community and thus limiting the huge number of death toll. The major cause of diarrhea in developing countries is Escherichia coli (E. coli).This study was aimed to isolate E. coli from diarrheal stool samples from children aged 05 months to 05 years visited/ hospitalized in Quetta due to acute/persistent diarrhea. Diarrheal stool samples from 200 children were collected from Lady Sandeman Hospital Quetta and cultured on nutrient agar and later transferred to E. coli specific growth media for initial detection. For further confirmation the colonies were subjected to polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The PCR results revealed that 44(22%) samples out of 200 samples were positive for E. coli. These results indicate a high proportion of E. coli infection among children suffering with diarrhea.

In Pakistan, β-thalassemia is considered as one of most typical genetic abnormality. Different countries like Itlay, France, and Greece have recognised thalassemia as preventive disorder of society. In Pakistan, since 1994 different efforts were made to control thalassemic epidemic. Inspite of this, there is no significant decline in occurrence of childbirth with transfusion dependent β-thalassemia incidents. In order to obtain fruitful results of general thalassemia eradication program nation wide,  it is vital to evaluate β-thalassemia trait (BTT) by specific, low price, and accurate mechanism of diagnosis. So, this current research was carried out to decide the levels of HbA2 in samples by the use of Capillary Zone Electrophore and Cellulose Acetate Hemoglobin Electrophoresis.

This comparative research was done in the four groups:  i) Normal Individual having no sign or symptom of thalassemia ii) Patients having BTT i.e b-thalassemia trait iii) Patients having IDA i.e Iron Deficiency Anemia   iv) Parents of β-thalassemia major child with iron deficiency anemia (BTT and IDA). It means that both parents are carrier of β-thalassemia not diagnosed yet.

The level of HbA2 were estimated by the Cellulose Acetate Hemoglobin Electrophoresis and Capillary Zone Electrophoresis independently and then compared to design established results.

Result: Both these methods have found to be correct for the patients having b-thalassemia trait (BTT) but in combined condition, cases of b-thalassemia trait (BTT) were failed to be analyzed by both these systems.

Conclusion: As this technique is very easy, easily reachable and affordable. So, it is highly recommended for the diagnosis in the poor province like Balochistan in Pakistan. In thalassemia prevention, it plays a vital role.

Analisis Pemasangan Filter Pasif Untuk Mengurangi Harmonisa Pada Transformator Rectifier Di PT. Indah Kiat Pulp And Paper Perawang
Authors: Rido Rahmadani
Published: May 2020

The chlor-alkali process is an electrolysis process which plays an important role in the chemical industry such as the pulp industry. The process produces a product in the form of H2 gas, CL2 gas and NaOH (where the source of chloride ion used is NaCl). This electrolysis process requires a dirrect current with a large current  and a low voltage. In this electrolysis process a three phase controlled 12 pulse rectifiers are used which a connected with multi-winding transformers. In the rectifiers process there will be harmonic distortion on the source side of the transformer which can reduce the power quality of the system. To overcome the harmonic problems that occur in the system, an installation analysis of the equipment in the form of a passive single tuned  filter is aimed at reducing harmonic distortion of current and voltage and increasing the power factor (cos φ). From the result of harmonic analysis using ETAP software, after the installation of harmonic filters orde 11, 13 and 23, the harmonic current value (THDI) and harmonic voltage (THDV) has decreased, namely, before the filter installation, THDI value is 6,5% whereas after installation of filters, THDI value becomes 0,98%, thus there is a THDI decrease of 5,52%. Furthermore, for the voltage harmonic value (THDV) before filter installation is 1,48% while after filtering, THDV value becomes 0,26%, thus there is a THDV decrease of 1,22%. From the results of the simulation of the flow of power (load flow analysis), after installation of filters there is an increase in the value of the power factor (cos φ). Namely, before the filter installation, the value of power factor (cos φ) is 0,8 while after the filter installation the value of the power factor (cos φ) to 0,96, thus an increase in the power factor (cos φ) of 16%.

La caída de los regímenes socialistas, entre otras muchas consecuencias, representó para Cuba el final de un modelo económico basado hasta entonces en unas relaciones peculiares con la Unión Soviética y los países del Este. La crisis subsiguiente, agravada por la permanencia del bloqueo norteamericano, está siendo afrontada por la economía cubana con la aparente pretensión de sobrevivir manteniendo sus propios esquemas, acercándose sin embargo a un modelo algo más próximo al de economía mixta. El presente artículo, escrito desde dentro del sistema, explica el proceso.

Pobreza y desarrollo en el Este de Asia:
Authors: Hernández De Toro José Antonio
Published: May 2020

Para bien y para mal, los países del Este de Asia «están de moda». A pesar de la crisis financiera de finales del 97, o quizás más precisamente por ella, sigue resultando de interés profundizar en algunos elementos fundamentales de la economía de esos países. Este trabajo intenta analizar hasta qué punto la lucha contra la pobreza ha formado parte del modelo «asiático» de desarrollo, en contraposición a lo ocurrido en América Latina. El autor procura evitar los dos extremos, la exaltación y la demonización, entre los que han oscilado de forma quizás excesivamente pendular muchos juicios de economistas e instituciones sobre estos países llamados emergentes.

En septiembre del pasado año Brasil padeció, una vez más, los efectos de una crisis financiera cuyo origen se encontraba al otro lado del Pacífico: la creciente fuga de capitales obligó al Banco Central de este país a operar en el mercado interbancario con intereses de hasta el 39’75%, buscando con esta medida frenar de algún modo la salida masiva de capitales. A pesar de ello el real brasileño continuó su caída en el mercado de divisas debido a que en noviembre el déficit corriente correspondiente a los doce últimos meses alcanzaba los 34.525 millones de dólares, el 4’4% del PIB brasileño. Este es uno de los varios episodios padecidos en diversos países, tanto de Latinoamérica como del Sudeste asiático y que, uno tras otro, configuran una situación de recurrente crisis financiera mundial.

Published: May 2020

La Comunidad Andina de Naciones (CAN), antiguo Pacto Andino, es uno de los procesos de integración más antiguos y menos conocidos del continente latinoamericano. El 26 de mayo de 1999 se cumplieron 30 años desde que los países andinos unieron su futuro en busca del horizonte común del desarrollo, en uno de los pasos más importantes desde la independencia. La integración andina nació dentro de una concepción cerrada siguiendo el espíritu proteccionista de la sustitución de importaciones y hoy, camina dentro de una nueva concepción más liberal de regionalismo abierto. La Comunidad Andina, integrada por Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Perú y Venezuela, es una organización subregional dentro de Sudamérica, continente que se sigue caracterizando por tener altos niveles de injusticia social, de desigualdad de oportunidades y falta de equidad en la distribución de la renta. Este trabajo intenta analizar el proceso de integración desde su nacimiento hasta la actualidad a partir de una semblanza de los países que constituyen esta Comunidad Andina de Naciones.

Published: May 2020

Mantiene el autor que el arte del político consiste en conseguir un fuerte crecimiento y creación de empleo en un marco de estabilidad de precios y de equilibrio presupuestario; el riesgo actual es caer en la inflación o en la recesión. Recuerda que el «shock» provocado por el alza de los precios de los crudos en 1973 se combatió con una política de oferta. Por el contrario, en 1999, el temor a una deflación ha vuelto a poner en primer plano la política de demanda. El peligro de una recesión en Estados Unidos hace temer una situación análoga en la economía española. Propone,finalmente, una política antidepresiva seguida, al inicio de la recuperación, por una política antiinflacionista.

Hyperthyroidism is a condition where there is an increase in thyroid hormone synthesis and secretion so that the level of thyroid hormone in the blood increases. In 2013, data showed 0.4% of Indonesia's population experienced hyperthyroidism. Ciplukan fruit (Physalis peruviana) is an Indonesian herb that is thought to have an effect on thyroid hormone. This research is an in vivo experimental study. The research subjects were 30 Wistar strain white rats divided into 5 groups: negative control (distilled water), positive control (PTU 100 mg / kgBW), groups 3, 4, and 5 Ciplukan fruit extracts at a dose of 250 mg/kgBW, 500 mg/kgBW, and 1000 mg/kgBW. The results of the examination showed a decrease in T4 levels in the treatment with positive control and administration of ciplukan fruit extracts. There was a difference in the reduction in T4 levels for the group giving ciplukan extract doses of 1, 2, and 3 (p <0.05). It can be concluded that Ciplukan fruit extract with a dose of 250 mg/kgBW, 500 mg/kgBW, and 1000 mg/kgBW has potential as an anti-hyperthyroidism.

In an attempt to curtail examination malpractice, the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has been generating different paper types with a different order of test items in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). However, the permutation of test items may compromise students’ performance unintentionally because constructive suggestions in theory and practice recommend that test items be sequenced in ascending order of difficulty. This study used data collected from a random sample of 1,226 SSIII students to ascertain whether the permutation of test items has any effect on the performance of students in two different subjects (Use of English and Mathematics). The study adopted the Equivalent Groups Quasi-Experimental Research Design with three independent groups. Findings emerged, amongst others, that there is a significant difference in the performance scores of prospective university students’ in use of English and Mathematics examintaions arranged in three different orders (ED, DE, R). There are no significant gender differences in the performance of students in Use of English and Mathematics based on test item permutation. However female students perform better than male students when test items are arranged in ascending order of difficulty while males perform better when test items are arranged in descending order of difficulty. It was concluded that the permutation of test items in UTME examination tends to affect the performance of students in Use of English and Mathematics. This finding has implications for the future conduct of UTME examinations and enrolment into higher education as the randomization of UTME test items changes the difficulty order of different paper types. It was recommended that other measures of curtailing examination malpractices that would not affect students’ academic performance should be adopted.

Przedsiębiorstwa społeczne - źródła finansowania spółdzielni socjalnych
Authors: Łojko Majka
Published: May 2020

Spółdzielnie socjalne jako przedsiębiorstwa społeczne zaliczane są do pracodawców otwartego rynku pracy. Ze względu na specyfikę działania przygotowują i oferują miejsca zatrudnienia osobom najbardziej oddalonym od rynku pracy. W artykule podjęto próbę scharakteryzowania i oceny istniejących możliwości finansowania działalności przedsiębiorstw ekonomii społecznej w Polsce na przykładzie spółdzielni socjalnych osób prawnych, w kontekście rozwoju ekonomii społecznej, w przestrzeni polityki społecznej rozumianej jako jeden z komponentów polityki publicznej. Artykuł ma charakter przeglądowy. Dokonano analizy bieżącej literatury naukowej z zakresu przedsiębiorczości społecznej oraz aktualnych przepisów ustawodawstwa o spółdzielniach socjalnych. Zaprezentowane dane wskazują, że obecnie spółdzielnie socjalne mają do dyspozycji różne formy i źródła finansowania swojej działalności. Funkcjonują w sferze użyteczności publicznej, uzupełniając lukę w świadczeniu usług powszechnie dostępnych, której nie są w stanie wypełnić podmioty wolnego rynku czy instytucje państwowe. Ich aktywność jest finansowana głównie ze środków własnych, które mogą być uzupełniane wsparciem finansowym z budżetu państwa lub jednostki samorządu terytorialnego oraz kredytami bankowymi i środkami z funduszy Unii Europejskiej.
Sławomir Czech, Od konfliktu do kooperacji
Authors: Biernacka Maja
Published: May 2020

Jest to recenzja książki Sławomira Czecha pod tytułem Od konfliktu do kooperacji. Instytucjonalizacja konfliktu interesów zbiorowych w szwedzkim modelu gospodarczym, która ukazała się w 2019 roku nakładem Wydawnictwa Naukowego Scholar. Dotyczy ona tak zwanego "szwedzkiego modelu" gospodarki. Autor twierdzi, że w procesach jego budowy zazwyczaj wyolbrzymiane jest znaczenie związków zawodowych, a zarazem niedoceniana jest rola organizacji biznesowych. Poddaje on analizie kluczowe konflikty między: Szwedzką Socjaldemokratyczną Partią Robotniczą, związkami zawodowymi i organizacją pracodawców. W książce wysuwa hipotezę, że budowanie szwedzkich instytucji gospodarczych zgodnie z zasadami współpracy oraz szukanie kompromisu między najważniejszymi grupami nacisku sprzyjało rozwiązaniom, które przyczyniły się do wzrostu gospodarczego.

The employment level research is an important element of economic analyses supporting the conduct of efficient regional or country policy. Many factors influence the level of this phenomenon, these are demographic, social and economic factors. The employment level can be considered in various categories and the demographic changes encourage to carry out employment analyses by age. Therefore, the subject of the analysis was employment (employment rate) of the European Union countries broken down by age. The main purpose of the article was to show similarities and differences in the level and structure of employment occurring in the European Union countries, and besides, examining the existence of spatial patterns in the period under investigation. To achieve this goal, selected quantitative tools were used, including classic and positional measures of central tendency, indicators of dynamics (average change rate) and measures of interdependence between variables (Pearson's correlation coefficient). In addition, selected spatial autocorrelation measures (global and local Moran's statistic) were used to identify spatial dependences. Data for analyses were taken from the Eurostat database. The results of the research showed the changing employment structure (by age) in the European Union countries and showed the existence of certain spatial dependences, especially in the oldest group of employed persons.
