A series of novel Bi2MoO6/Ag/Ag2CrO4 heterostructure photocatalysts (denoted as BA-X, X = 1, 3, 5, 10) were synthesized using a coprecipitation method. These photocatalysts were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-vis spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and their photocatalytic properties were investigated. Compared with pure Bi2MoO6 or Ag2CrO4, BA-5 exhibited a higher photocatalytic property and broader light absorption. In addition, the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect of Ag enhanced the separation of photogenerated carriers. BA-5 could be recycled at least five times, and XRD and SEM of BA-5 during the cycles were measured, revealing that the crystal structure and morphology were changed with the increase in the number of cycles. The trapping agent experiments indicated that the holes had a more decisive impact on the degradation of RhB; the degradation mechanism was proposed as Type I.

Mindfulness training (MT) has been shown to benefit sustained attention and mind wandering. Yet, few studies have examined whether benefits differ as a function of individual differences in mind wandering. The sustained attention to response task (SART) measured task accuracy (A′), response time variability (response time intraindividual coefficient of variation, ICV), and self-reported mind wandering in participants before (T1) and after (T2) a 1-month MT retreat (n = 56), as well as in a control group (n = 32) who received no MT. Only the retreat group demonstrated increased A′ and reduced mind wandering, but no change in ICV, from T1 to T2. Retreat participants demonstrated reduced ICV compared to the control group only when considering individual differences in mind wandering such that retreat participants with higher levels of mind wandering at T1 demonstrated greater benefits to ICV over time. These findings suggest MT may benefit sustained attention, as seen in changes on both objective and subjective measures, and that considering baseline individual differences may increase our understanding of MT’s benefits to sustained attention.
Frequency and Correlates of Online Consultations With Doctors or Therapists in Middle-Aged and Older Adults: Nationally Representative Cross-sectional Study
Authors: Hajek André , König Hans-Helmut
Published: April 2022

Background

A few studies have identified the frequency and correlates of online consultations with doctors or therapists. However, there is a lack of studies using nationally representative data from middle-aged and older adults in Germany.

Objective

This study aims to determine the frequency and correlates of online consultations with doctors or therapists in Germany.

Methods

For this study, cross-sectional data were taken from the nationally representative German Ageing Survey (DEAS; n=3067 in the analytical sample; age range 46-98 years). As part of the DEAS, a short survey was conducted between June 8 and July 22, 2020, examining the everyday life and living conditions among these middle-aged and older individuals during the COVID-19 pandemic. The frequency of online consultations with doctors or therapists served as the dependent variable (daily, several times a week, once a week, 1-3 times a month, less often, and never). Multiple logistic regressions were performed.

Results

In sum, 10.02% (381/3806) of individuals with access to the internet had online consultations with doctors or therapists. Multiple logistic regressions showed that the likelihood of using online consultations with doctors or therapists (compared with those never using such services) was positively associated with higher education (compared with medium education; odds ratio [OR] 1.31, 95% CI 1.01-1.70), living with a partner in the same household (compared with single; OR 1.53, 95% CI 1.05-2.22), poorer self-rated health (OR 1.42, 95% CI 1.16-1.74), increased loneliness (OR 1.45, 95% CI 1.10-1.90), and increased satisfaction with life (OR 1.30, 95% CI 1.03-1.64).

Conclusions

Study findings suggest that a non-negligible proportion of about 1 out of 10 individuals aged 46 years and over had online consultations with doctors or therapists. However, compared with other countries, this proportion remains small. Knowledge about the correlates of (non)use may assist in identifying corresponding individuals. In times of reshaping the health care system, these efforts in online consultations with doctors or therapists may contribute to addressing patient needs. Moreover, increased use of such services may reduce the risk of getting infected with SARS-CoV-2 by reducing social contact.
Programs Using Stimulation-Regulating Technologies to Promote Physical Activity in People With Intellectual and Multiple Disabilities: Scoping Review (Preprint)
Authors: Lancioni Giulio E , Singh Nirbhay N , O’Reilly Mark , Sigafoos Jeff , Alberti Gloria , Desideri Lorenzo
Published: April 2022

BACKGROUND

People with intellectual and multiple disabilities tend to engage in very low levels of physical activity.

OBJECTIVE

This review paper aims to provide a comprehensive picture of intervention programs using stimulation-regulating technologies to promote forms of physical activity in people with intellectual and multiple disabilities.

METHODS

Following the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews) checklist, a scoping review was conducted to identify and provide a synthesis of eligible studies published in English between 2010 and 2021. Studies were identified by searching PubMed, Web of Science, PsycINFO, ERIC, and CINAHL as well as by using Google Scholar and manual searches. Studies were included if they involved individuals with intellectual or multiple disabilities, used stimulation-regulating technology systems to help participants engage in physical activity, and reported data on the impact of the intervention.

RESULTS

A total of 42 studies met the inclusion criteria. These studies were divided into 2 groups based on whether they pursued the increase in physical activity through technology-aided delivery of brief periods of preferred stimulation contingent on specific responses or the use of video games (exergames) and related auditory and visual stimulation. Subsequently, a narrative synthesis of the studies was provided.

CONCLUSIONS

The evidence reported by the 2 groups of studies is encouraging. However, further research is needed to compare the overall applicability and impact of the intervention strategies proposed by these groups of studies.
Two-dimensional Chess Diagrams Recognition (Preprint)
Authors: Duca Iliescu Delia Monica , Bocu Razvan
Published: April 2022

UNSTRUCTURED

The solutions proposed so far to the problem of recognising a chess diagram from an image containing a standard chess set are not usable in a real scenario, because the constant mistakes in recognising different chess pieces, such as pawns versus bishops, for example, make the whole recognition process useless. There is a great need to combine the computing power of chess engines with a physical chessboard, especially during individual chess training. Therefore, this article proposes a method for identifying chess positions on a two-dimensional chess set, which allows obtaining close to perfect accuracy during the classification of chess pieces. The generation of a custom data set using the specific Magne 2D chess set, which was designed in 2019 and is the first of its kind in the world, allowed the proposed model to have the aforementioned accuracy. Furthermore, the recognition process is supported by a cross-platform mobile application, which includes the necessary artificial intelligence features to recognize a chess diagram.

Authors: Lee Jennifer , Yang Samuel , Holland-Hall Cynthia , Sezgin Emre , Gill Manjot , Linwood Simon , Huang Yungui , Hoffman Jeffrey
Published: April 2022

BACKGROUND

With the increased sharing of electronic health information as required by the US 21st Century Cures Act, there is an increased risk of breaching patient, parent, or guardian confidentiality. The prevalence of sensitive terms in clinical notes is not known.

OBJECTIVE

The aim of this study is to define sensitive terms that represent the documentation of content that may be private and determine the prevalence and characteristics of provider notes that contain sensitive terms.

METHODS

Using keyword expansion, we defined a list of 781 sensitive terms. We searched all provider history and physical, progress, consult, and discharge summary notes for patients aged 0-21 years written between January 1, 2019, and December 31, 2019, for a direct string match of sensitive terms. We calculated the prevalence of notes with sensitive terms and characterized clinical encounters and patient characteristics.

RESULTS

Sensitive terms were present in notes from every clinical context in all pediatric ages. Terms related to the mental health category were most used overall (254,975/1,338,297, 19.5%), but terms related to substance abuse and reproductive health were most common in patients aged 0-3 years. History and physical notes (19,854/34,771, 57.1%) and ambulatory progress notes (265,302/563,273, 47.1%) were most likely to include sensitive terms. The highest prevalence of notes with sensitive terms was found in pain management (950/1112, 85.4%) and child abuse (1092/1282, 85.2%) clinics.

CONCLUSIONS

Notes containing sensitive terms are not limited to adolescent patients, specific note types, or certain specialties. Recognition of sensitive terms across all ages and clinical settings complicates efforts to protect patient and caregiver privacy in the era of information-blocking regulations.
Sex-based differences in the outcomes of patients with lung carcinoids
Authors: Abdel-Rahman Omar , Ghosh Sunita , Fazio Nicola
Published: April 2022

Objective:
To assess the impact of sex on the outcomes of patients with well-differentiated lung neuroendocrine neoplasms in a real-world setting.
Methods:
The Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results Research Plus database (2000–2018) was accessed, and patients with a diagnosis of typical or atypical carcinoid of the lung were reviewed. Trends in age-standardized rates (per 100,000) of the incidence of lung carcinoid tumors were reviewed among male and female patients as well as the overall population, and annual percent change (APC) was determined for the three groups. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was then used to assess the factors associated with overall and cancer-specific survival.
Results:
Among all patients, APC (2000–2018) for lung carcinoid diagnosis was 2.9 (95% CI: 2.4–3.5). Among male patients, APC (2000–2018) for lung carcinoid diagnosis was 1.8 (95% CI: 1.2–2.5). By contrast, among female patients, APC (2000–2018) for lung carcinoid diagnosis was 3.4 (95% CI: 2.8–4.1). Based on Kaplan–Meier survival estimates, female sex was associated with better overall survival compared with male sex (p < 0.001). Based on multivariate Cox regression analysis, the following factors were associated with worse cancer-specific survival: older age (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.036; 95% CI: 1.031–1.041), atypical carcinoid histology (HR: 3.10; 95% CI: 2.71–3.56), stage (distant vs localized stage HR: 4.05; 95% CI: 3.48–4.71), sex (male vs female sex HR: 1.76; 95% CI: 1.56–1.99) and no surgical treatment (HR: 3.77; 95% CI: 3.22–4.42).
Conclusion:
Female patients with lung carcinoid tumors have better overall survival compared with male patients, particularly among patients with typical carcinoid tumors.

Published: April 2022

Aim: This cross-sectional study aimed to better understand parental knowledge and attitudes regarding pediatric sport-related concussions, and association with parent/child biopsychosocial factors. Methods: A community sample of ninety families (n = 140 children) were included. Parental concussion knowledge and attitudes, concussion history, sport participation and social risk status score (SRS) were collected. Results: Parents scored an average of 76% accuracy on factual concussion knowledge, with 74% confidence in responses. Parents endorsed a favorable attitude toward concussion reporting and management. Low SRS had higher perceived accuracy of knowledge than medium or high SRS (p = 0.003). SRS influenced over-and-underestimations of factual knowledge (p = .04). Age at first sport and sport contact level influenced factual and perceived concussion knowledge. Conclusion: These findings identify common gaps in concussion knowledge in parents.

Authors: Lara Jorge , Hernández Concepción , Arjona Marco , Masisi Lesedi , Chandra Ambrish
Published: April 2022

This paper presents a bidirectional electric vehicle (EV) charger with ancillary power quality (PQ) capabilities in grid-to-vehicle (G2V), vehicle-to-grid (V2G) and vehicle-to-home (V2H) applications. The proposed configuration consists of a five-level (5L) neutral point clamped (NPC) converter in cascaded with a dual-active half bridge (DAHB) DC-DC converter. The proposed cascaded control strategy used for regulating the common DC bus voltage as well as for compensating the grid current harmonics and the reactive power through the 5L-converter is based on a performant proportional-resonant (PR) compensator. By applying the single-phase-shift (SPS) technique to the DAHB converter, the battery power flow is accurately regulated. A detailed study with exhaustive tests and simulation results obtained in MATLAB-SimPowerSystems for a full-scale power system based on a Nissan Leaf´s battery validate the fairly good performance of the proposed configuration and control strategies. The main achievements of this work are: 1) the system’s stability is maintained even during fairly abrupt changing conditions, 2) in steady state of the G2V/V2G operation modes, the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the grid current remains below 3% while the power factor (PF) is kept at unity, 3) the reactive power demanded from the grid is zero in spite of feeding a highly nonlinear load, and 4) when a power outage occurs, the transition to the V2H mode is seamless and the home load is uninterruptedly supplied with a very low-distortion output voltage from the 5L-converter.

Published: April 2022

Pregnancy can be considered a unique situation in a woman's life, with many meanings, a developmental process that will lead to several organic transformations and expressive changes at the biopsychosocial and emotional level. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of anxiety symptoms in pregnant women accompanied by the primary care network, in a city in the Northwest of the state of Rio Grande do Sul. This is a study with qualitative, exploratory and transversal approach. The research participants were 10 pregnant women, aged between 18 and 35 years. For data collection, a semi-structured interview was used. Data analysis revealed that there are several reasons that lead women to present anxiety symptoms during pregnancy. It can be called multidimensional anxiety, as it is characterized by fears and concerns specific to that period. Anxiety symptoms were presented by all pregnant women, whether related to bodily changes, emotional imbalance, lack of family support and/or trauma. The fact that they are going through the stressor of the COVID-19 pandemic may have been an important factor for the increase in these symptoms. These, associated with fear and insecurities about the future and risk of contamination. It is suggested that all pregnant women, when starting their prenatal care, are already accompanied by a psychologist. So that they have the ideal space to bring up their feelings, expectations, fears and the anxiety experienced during this period.
APPLICATION OF THE THEORY OF THE MULTICOMPONENT DRY FRICTION IN SOME OF CONTROL ROBOT SYSTEMS
Authors: Kireenkov Alexey , Fedotenkov Grigory , Shiriaev Anton , Zhavoronok Sergey
Published: April 2022

The implementations of the theory of multicomponent dry friction [1-19] for analyze the dynamics of some robotic systems, such as a butterfly robot [16-18, 20] or a humanoid robot is proposed. Since the main controlled element of these systems is a spherical, elastic composite shell, it is required to calculate the distribution of normal contact stresses inside the contact spot. The contact pressure distribution for such elements is constructed using the S. A. Ambartsumyan’s equation for a transversally isotropic spherical shell. This equation is modified by introducing the averaged contact pressure and normal displacements for the shell. The construction of the resolving integral equation for the contact pressure is based on the principle of superposition and the method of Green's functions. For this, the corresponding Green's function is constructed, which is the normal displacement of the shell as a solution to the problem of the effect of concentrated pressure. Green's function as well as the contact pressure, it is sought in the form of series expansions in Legendre polynomials, taking into account additional relations for the reduced contact pressure and normal displacements. Using the Green's function, an integral equation solving the problem is constructed. As a result, the problem is reduced to determining the expansion coefficients in a series of the reduced contact pressure. Restricting ourselves to a finite number of terms in the series of expansions, using the discretization of the contact area and the properties of Legendre polynomials, the problem is reduced to solving a system of algebraic equations for the expansion coefficients for the reduced pressure. After that, from the additional relation, the coefficients of the required expansion of the contact pressure in a series in Legendre polynomials are determined. To describe the conditions of shell contact with the surface, the theory of multicomponent anisotropic dry friction is used, taking into account the combined kinematics of shell motion (simultaneous sliding, rotation and rolling). The coefficients of the dry friction model can be calculated using simple explicit formulas [1-19] based on numerical experiments.

ASSESSMENT OF THE INFLUENCE OF THE ROTATIONAL COMPONENTS OF SEISMIC ACTION ON THE SSS OF A MULTISTOREY REINFORCED CONCRETE BUILDING
Authors: Reshetov Andrej , Lokhova Ekaterina
Published: April 2022

The urgent task of earthquake-resistant construction is to improve the methods of calculating the seismic effect. Currently, most calculations for seismic effects are made taking into account only the translational components of the earthquake. However, seismic soil rotations make a tangible contribution to the dynamic response of structures that are sensitive to the wave effect of seismic impact. Modern studies show that building structures have a spatial nature of work, and in calculations for seismic loads, in addition to three translational components, it is necessary to consider the impact on buildings and structures from additional three rotational components. The purpose of this work is to assess the influence of rotational components on the stress-strain state of a multielement reinforced concrete building. In the course of the work, calculations of a reinforced concrete building were made without taking into account and taking into account the rotational components of the seismic impact, based on the results of which a comparative analysis was made. The calculation for the earth-quake was performed by an explicit direct dynamic method of central differences in the LS-DYNA software in six settings: the action of the translational component is set along the X axis; the action of the translational com-ponent is set along the X axis and rotational component – relative to the Y axis; the action of the translational component is set along the Y axis; the action of the translational component is set along the Y axis and rotational component – relative to the X axis; the impact of three translational components; the action of three translational and three rotational components. As a result of a comparative analysis of the obtained displacements and stresses, it was concluded that taking into account rotational components does not make a tangible contribution to the SSS of the building under consideration.

Authors: Horwood Genevieve , Erwin Erica , Guo Yanfang , Gaudet Laura
Published: April 2022

Objective: To discern the optimal plan for delivery in nulliparous women
with obesity at term gestation. Design: Large population-based
retrospective cohort study Setting: Maternity hospitals in Ontario,
Canada Population: Nulliparous women with obesity (BMI>30)
with live, singleton, uncomplicated term gestations (37+0 to 41+6 weeks)
between April 1st, 2012 and March 31st, 2019 Methods: Women were divided
by plan for delivery (expectant management, induction of labour and
no-labour caesarean section). The outcomes of interest were adverse
delivery outcomes. Analyses were conducted using multivariable
regression models. Analyses were stratified by each week of gestational
age and by obesity class. Main Outcome Measures: The primary outcome was
the Adverse Outcome Index (AOI), a binary composite of 10 maternal and
neonatal adverse events. The Weighted Adverse Outcome Score (WAOS) was
the secondary outcome. It provides a weighted score of each adverse
event included in the AOI. Results: No-labour caesarean section reduced
the risk of adverse delivery outcome by 41% (aRR 0.59, 95%CI [0.50,
0.70]) compared to expectant management at term gestation. There was
no statistically significant difference in adverse birth outcomes when
comparing induction of labour to expectant management (aRR 1.03, 95% CI
[0.96, 1.10]). The greatest benefit to no-labour caesarean section
was observed in the reduction of adverse neonatal events (aRR 0.70, 95%
CI [0.57, 0.87]) particularly at 39 weeks of gestation. Conclusion:
In women with obesity, no-labour caesarean section reduces adverse birth

Big Fish, Small Pond: How In-Charge Auditors Engage with Technology-Based Audit Tools to Influence the Audit in Non-Global Network Firms
Authors: Witte Annie L. , Earley Christine E. , Thibodeau Jay C.
Published: April 2022

We investigate how in-charge auditors emerge as individual big fish within the smaller ponds of non-global network firms (NGNFs) (i.e., firms other than the “Global 7” network firms, or GNFs). These NGNFs engage in institutional work (i.e., acts of creating, maintaining, or disrupting organizational practices) using technology-based audit tools (TBATs) to impact audit quality. Using semi-structured interviews and applying the lens of institutional theory, we identify factors associated with in-charge auditors' propensity to engage in institutional work using TBATs, specifically examining how in-charge auditors engage in actions that contribute to the development, continuance, and/or breach of existing practice (characterized as “creating,” “maintaining,” and “disrupting,” works, respectively). Our findings identify audit firm culture, engagement budgets, and training experiences as drivers of in-charges' ability to pursue institutional work and effect change.
‘Pinholes in my arms’: the vicious cycle of vascular access
Authors: Kelly Linda , Snowden Austyn
Published: April 2022

Background

Vascular access devices (VADs) are essential for delivery of intravenous therapies. There are notable gaps in the literature regarding a focus on patient experience and meaning-making related to living with a VAD, specifically a central venous access device (CVAD).

Aims

To explore how patients make sense of living with a CVAD.

Methods

This study followed an interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA) approach. Purposive sampling was used to identify 11 cancer patients who had a CVAD in situ. One-to-one semi-structured interviews were performed. Interviews were digitally recorded, transcribed and analysed by the lead author.

Findings

Four superordinate themes were identified: the self under attack; being rescued/being robbed; protection of others/protection of self; bewilderment and dismay at lack of staff competence.

Conclusion

Having a CVAD affects the psychological, social, and personal self and impacts on self-esteem and self-image. Despite this, CVADs are accepted by patients and are eventually ‘embodied’ by them.

Why History Matters for Media Literacy Education
Authors:   Temple University, RobbGrieco Michael
Published: April 2022

The ways people have publicly discussed and written about media literacy in the past have great bearing on how citizens, educators and learners are able to think about and practice their own media literacy. Our concepts of media literacy have evolved over time in response to changing contexts of media studies and educational discourses as well as changes in communication technologies, media industries, politics, and popular culture. My research on the history of Media&Values magazine 1977-1993, made possible by the Elizabeth Thoman Media Literacy Archive, illustrates how tracing developments of media literacy concepts over time can give us much needed perspective on the discursive contexts that constitute our field of media literacy practices today. In Media&Values, media literacy emerges from its historical contexts as a means for reform, a practice of understanding representation/reality, and a pedagogy of social analysis and inquiry. Each of these themes constructs media literacy as an intervention in power, but at different conceptual levels—addressing institutions; demystifying ideology; and negotiating identities. These historical constructions lend perspective for understanding our diverse approaches to media literacy education today in terms of how we constitute power relations among learners, educators, media makers and users, and media texts, technology and industry.
Integración de la impresión 3D en la educación tecnológica
Authors: Candia García Filiberto
Published: April 2022

El presente trabajo describe una experiencia académica que permite alinear la educación basada en competencias con las metas del cuarto indicador de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible. El propósito principal es integrar la impresión 3D a la educación técnica y tecnológica para acceder al empleo, al trabajo decente y al emprendimiento. Desde la teoría del constructivismo cognitivo, emplea la gamificación para la enseñanza de las matemáticas. El diseño metodológico tiende un puente entre la exposición de conocimientos analíticos (fórmulas y ecuaciones) y la apropiación cognitiva a través de material impreso en 3D. Así, mediante la observación directa a través de una lista de cotejo, se documentó la experiencia de un grupo de estudiantes. Los resultados encontrados proporcionan evidencia de que el diseño y fabricación de material didáctico impreso en 3D permite la integración sistemática de contenidos matemáticos que los estudiantes, ya sean niños, jóvenes o adultos, utilizan en actividades cotidianas o laborales, tal y como el análisis y cálculo de áreas, volúmenes, razones y proporciones, así como de los ajustes y tolerancias.

Assessment is one of integrated parts in teaching and learning process. Due to the change of curriculum in Indonesia, the assessment type which the teachers should use to assess theirstudents is different. According to Curriculum 2013, teachers need to assess every studentthoroughly, including their knowledge, skills, and attitudes. In fact, teachers still finddifficulties in assessing their students. This phenomenon also happens to the teachers ofjunior high schools. This research aims to develop a mid-semester assessment model which ismore practical and less time-consuming for English teachers in junior high schools. Themethod was Research and Development (RD). The data were collected from groupdiscussion, questionnaires, and interviews. The result of the research is a holistic Englishassessment model which can be used for a mid-semester period. A holistic assessment coversthe partial and contextual aspects of teaching and learning. It consists of two types: studentassessment and portfolio assessment. This assessment model is expected to improve theeffectiveness of the assessment technique for junior high schools and to provide moreopportunities for teachers to conduct the mid-term assessment which is not really taken intoaccount as a part of classroom activities.
