Authors:   University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Mojtahedi Amin , Yoon So-Yeon ,   Cornell University, Hosseini Tahereh A. ,   University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Diaz Martinez Diego H. ,   Florida State University
Published: December 2020

To deliver an innovative design, architects often need to innovate in the ways they empathize with and understand the user. In his 1994 essay, the American Pragmatist philosopher Richard Rorty writes that “one should stop worrying about whether what one believes is well-grounded and start worrying about whether one has been imaginative enough to think up interesting alternatives to one’s present beliefs”1. This study, primarily, explores an interdisciplinary approach in which data collection, analysis, and interpretation are used as drivers of inspiration as well as tools of validation. A combination of tools and techniques labeled as people-space analytics was used to investigate the socio-spatial dynamics of work in the workplace of a national architecture firm. The results were later interpreted from a certain lens in the community of practice theory. A secondary goal of this research project is to study how workplace’s spatial configuration and key people and places are involved in organizational learning and knowledge practices. Therefore, a set of metrics and measures were used to interpret different employees’ recurrent patterns of communication and flow of information between people from different social networks in a spatial context."

THEORETICAL APPROACHES TO DETERMINING THE ASYMMETRIES OF THE STATE FISCAL SPACE
Authors: VASYLEVSKA Halyna
Published: December 2020

Introduction. Modern trends of home economics are characterized by its components diversity, a dynamic structure of evolution and a certain imbalance caused by permanent crises, increased economic, political, cultural, environmental risks, as well as significant social tensions. Further, the aftermath may be unpredictable for countries with thoroughly different levels of development. Affecting various areas of public life, fiscal space asymmetries belong to the most controversial relevant field-related issues. Meanwhile, a definition of asymmetries is often equally applied to describe the concepts of national economy’s regional or intersectoral imbalance, destruction of economic or social processes, still remaining an objective phenomenon. The issue of destructive increase is associated with incompetence of employing asymmetries in an attempt to balance and improve a socio-economic situation in the country.

The purpose is to argue a notion of fiscal space asymmetry in order to define the fiscal theory key concepts and classification, to discuss a dualistic nature of their content.

Results. The article reviews theoretical fundamentals by foreign and domestic scientists in the asymmetries domain, provides a detailed analysis of related elaborations, based on which the author's fiscal space asymmetry definition is suggested. Also, their influence on the optimal tax system formation is clarified.

Conclusions. Fiscal space, under the asymmetries’ systematic influence, conditioned by a number of internal and external factors, is subject to certain inconsistencies that affect social advancement in different ways. It appears essential to determine the causes as well as to identify differences in question to effectively manage fiscal tools, in particular, the fiscal space asymmetries, to minimize risks, imbalance and chaos of economic development, and to reduce social tension.
Non-equilibrium engineering of chemically grown SiO2/Si by UV nanosecond pulsed laser annealing from the viewpoint of bias temperature instability sources
Authors: Tabata Toshiyuki , Inoue Kenji , Yoshida Yukifumi , Takahashi Hiroaki
Published: December 2020

The impacts of high-temperature UV nanosecond pulsed laser annealing (LA) on a chemically grown SiO2/Si system are systematically investigated as a function of the number of irradiated pulses. A progressive transition is observed for both the tetrahedral SiO4 network and the SiO2/Si interface, being assumed to play an essential role in controlling bulk SiO2 traps and interface states. The presented results open the perspective to improve bias temperature instability of low thermal budget gate stacks by UV ns pulsed LA, particularly in emerging 3D integrations.

Authors: Shimizu Yasuo , Sai Hitoshi , Matsui Takuya , Taki Kenji , Hashiguchi Taiki , Katayama Hirotaka , Matsumoto Mitsuhiro , Terakawa Akira , Inoue Koji , Nagai Yasuyoshi
Published: December 2020

The three-dimensional (3D) distribution of nanosized silicon (Si) crystallites within a hydrogenated nanocrystalline Si (nc-Si:H) material is examined by laser-assisted atom probe tomography (APT). The amorphous and crystalline phases in nc-Si:H are distinguished by obtaining the 3D density distribution of H atoms, because the former contains a high H density. The H content in the amorphous phase is estimated to be approximately 15 at% by APT, which is consistent with that obtained by infrared spectroscopy. Thus, the 3D analysis of H distribution via APT is a powerful method to visualize the real shape of nanosized crystallites within nc-Si:H materials.

Objective- to determine the sonographic findings associated with endometrial hyperplasia (EH+) in perimenopausal women with abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). Methods- a retrospective study, in which 150 subjects, perimenopausal women with AUB, underwent transvaginal sonography (TVS) and endometrial biopsy. The TVS findings were evaluated with regard to EH+. Result- Biopsy proven EH+ was seen in 18.67% of subjects. EH+ was not found in any patient with TVS showing endometrial thickness < 8 mm. Conclusion- There is a strong association between TVS endometrial thickness and endometrial biopsy findings. The risk of development of endometrial cancer is 29% in patients with complex atypical hyperplasia and 2% in patients with hyperplasia without atypia. Thus TVS should be in the first investigation in the management of AUB. Invasive method like dilatation and curettage (D&C) to be considered in cases with endometrial thickness > or = 8 mm.

A COMPARATIVE STUDY BETWEEN ROUTINE INSERTIONS OF SUBHEPATIC DRAIN VERSUS NO DRAIN AFTER ELECTIVE LAPAROSCOPIC CHOLECYSTECTOMY
Authors: Sarkar Subhadip
Published: December 2020

Introduction: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the mainstay of treatment in symptomatic cholelithiasis. Surgeons are still following the old habit of routine Subhepatic drainage following laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). However, routine drainage after LC is still a debatable issue. This study aims at evaluating the effects of Subhepatic drainage after standard laparoscopic cholecystectomy in terms of various post-operative parameters.
Materials & methods: The study was conducted at the department of General Surgery, ESIC-PGIMSR, Joka, Kolkata from January 2018 to March 2020. We selected 120 patients with symptomatic cholelithiasis & divided them into 2 groups; each having 60 patients, with drain & without drain respectively. Age & sex distribution of the patients, post-operative abdominal pain & right shoulder tip pain, post-operative wound infection, subhepatic collection (24 & 72 hrs after surgery) & post-surgical hospital stay were measured in both groups. Data were analyzed by appropriate statistical tests.
Results: We found the incidence of laparoscopic cholecystectomy was highest in the 5th decade & more common in women. The incidence of post-surgical abdominal pain & subhepatic collection were greater in the group of patients with drain in situ which was statistically significant also. Moreover, inserting drain showed increased incidence of post operative wound infection & hospital stay, though these were statistically insignificant. More patients in the non drain group showed post-operative right shoulder tip pain in comparison to the drain group but that was also statistically insignificant.
Conclusion: The decision of inserting drain should be taken judiciously on the basis of individual case scenario. The generalized approach of putting abdominal drain after every standard laparoscopic cholecystectomy is not at all beneficial.
FUNCTIONING PITUITARY TUMOURS: A CLINICOBIOCHEMICAL CORRELATION
Authors: Chakraborty Parna , Datta Parthasarathi
Published: December 2020

Introduction
Pituitary tumours may be functioning or non-functioning. Functioning tumours secrete PRL, GH, ACTH, TSH, FSH, LH and have clinical features pertaining to the hormones. We in our study tried to analyze the pre-op and post-op clinicoendocrinological( biochemical) status.
Materials and methods
Over a span of 10 years from Jan 2010 to Jan 2020 we studied the pre-op and post-op clinical features, radiology (CT, MRI) and endocrine levels of 20 patients with functioning pituitary adenomas.
Results
Completeness of tumour removal dictates normalization of clinical features and endocrine levels. Microadenomas pose a more remission rate than macroadenomas.
Conclusion
Total tumour removal in a functioning pituitary adenoma normalizes the clinicoendocrinological parameters. Normalization rates are far more for microadenomas than macroadenomas.

Inter-destination Multimedia Synchronization: A Contemporary Survey
Authors: Kanellopoulos Dimitris
Published: December 2020

The advent of social networking applications, media streaming technologies, and synchronous communications has created an evolution towards dynamic shared media experiences. In this new model, geographically distributed groups of users can be immersed in a common virtual networked environment in which they can interact and collaborate in real- time within the context of simultaneous media content consumption. In this environment, intra-stream and inter-stream synchronization techniques are used inside the consumers’ playout devices, while synchronization of media streams across multiple separated locations is required. This synchronization is nown as multipoint, group or Inter-Destination Multimedia Synchronization (IDMS) and is needed in many applications such as social TV and synchronous e-learning. This survey paper discusses intraand inter-stream synchronization issues, but it mainly focuses on the most well-known IDMS techniques that can be used in emerging distributed multimedia applications. In addition, it provides some research directions for future work.
Minimum BER Criterion Based Robust Blind Separation for MIMO Systems
Authors: Luo Zhongqiang , Zhang Wei , Zhu Lidong , Li Chengjie
Published: December 2020

In this paper, a robust blind source separation (BSS) algorithm is investigated based on a new cost function for noise suppression. This new cost function is established according to the criterion of minimum bit error rate (BER) incorporated into maximum likelihood (ML) principle based independent component analysis (ICA). With the help of natural gradient search, the blind separation work is carried out through optimizing this constructed cost function. Simulation results and analysis corroborate that the proposed blind separation algorithm can realize better performance in speed of convergence and separation accuracy as opposed to the conventional ML-based BSS.

Vehicle to grid (V2G) communication for electric vehicles and their charging points is already well established by the ISO 15118 standard. The standard allows vehicles to communicate with the charging station using the power cable, i.e. a wired link, but it is improved to enable wireless (WLAN) links as well. This paper aims to provide an implementation accomplishes a wireless authentication solution (WAS). With that the electric vehicles can establish V2G connection when approaching the charging pool, then identify and authenticate the driver and/or the vehicle. Furthermore, the paper presents a TTCN-3 based validation and verification (V&V) framework in order to test the conformance of the prototype implementation against the standard.
A Competition State Perspective on the Development of Swedish Policies for Internationalisation of Higher Education and Research 1960s–2010s
Authors: Åkerlund Andreas
Published: December 2020

This article is an historical analysis of Swedish policies for internationalisation of higher education and research from the 1970s and onwards. The analysis is carried out against the theoretical backdrop of the competition state, as a type of state reformulating and restructuring the relation between the national and international during the second half of the twentieth century with the aim of making society fit for international competition. Focussing on arguments as to why Swedish universities need to be internationalised, how this should be done and which parts of higher education that should be internationalised, the article shows the development of Swedish internationalisation policies, starting in the 1960s and -70s where focus was on international solidarity, inward student mobility and the internationalisation of teaching. In the 1980s and -90s the idea of a knowledge driven economic development was the central paradigm, resulting in a stronger focus on research and international research collaboration. To this the 2000s and -10s added a focus on ingoing mobility, both as a source of revenue through tuition fees, and a way to recruit skilled labour.

Vitamin D, infections and immunity
Authors: Misiorowski Waldemar
Published: December 2020

Vitamin D (VD) is a steroid prohormone that regulates the body's calcium and phosphate levels in bone mineralization. It is also well described as a fat-soluble vitamin playing an important role in immunomodulation, regulation of cytokines, and cell proliferation. Thus, VD is a powerful hormone with pleiotropic effects, which acts to maintain optimal health. Recent studies demonstrate that VD deficiency is associated with the development of autoimmune disorders. Vitamin D generates many extraskeletal effects due to the vitamin D receptor (VDR) which is present in most tissues throughout the body. This paper reviews the recent data on the role of vitamin D in the genesis of various immunological disorders. The possible role of vitamin D in infections is implied from its impact on the innate and adaptive immune responses. A significant effect is the suppression of inflammatory processes. It inhibits immune reactions in general, but it enhances the transcription of "endogenous antibiotics" such as cathelicidin and defensins. VD inhibits the genesis of both Th1 – and Th2-cell mediated diseases. Th1 – dependent autoimmune diseases (e.g., multiple sclerosis, Type 1 diabetes, Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis and so on) are also inhibited by VD due to inhibition of antigen presentation, reduced polarization of Th0 cells to Th1 cells and reduced production of cytokines from the latter cells. VD seems to also be a useful adjunct in the prevention of allograft rejection. Cardiac and coagulopathic features of COVID-19 disease deserve attention as they may be related to vitamin D. There are also intriguing potential links to vitamin D as a factor in the cytokine storm that consist some of the most serious consequences of SARS-CoV-2 infection, such as the acute respiratory distress syndrome. Finally, the current clinical data strongly associate vitamin D with SARS-CoV-2 infection, however a putative clinical link that at this time must still be considered hypothetical.

Published: December 2020

Regular physical activity is widely recommended for primary and secondary prevention of many diseases. Among others, it has been proven to reduce the risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, diabetes, hypertension, colorectal cancer, breast cancer and depression. In addition, physical activity plays an important role in regulating the body's energy balance, and therefore controls body weight. Physical inactivity was identified as the fourth leading risk factor for global mortality (6% of deaths worldwide) after factors such as elevated blood pressure (13%), smoking (9%) and high blood glucose (6%). The purpose of this article is to illustrate the physiological and pathological changes that occur in the hypothalamic-​-pituitary-gonadal axis (HPG) secondary to exercise and training. Relatively short and intensive exercise usually increases, while more prolonged exercise usually decreases serum testosterone concentrations. Reduced or low-normal circulating testosterone levels involve health consequences such as an increased risk of abnormal spermatogenesis, infertility problems, and compromised bone mineralization. In addition, the administration of prohibited substances, such as anabolic androgenic steroids, to competitive and non-competitive athletes is an important cause of iatrogenic andrological diseases.

Ensaios em modelos de quebra-mar submersos para proteção da orla do Leme
Authors: Amado Machado Guilherme , Faria Novo Jean Marcel , Romanel Celso
Published: December 2020

O propósito deste trabalho é investigar a vulnerabilidade da praia do Leme, na zona sul da cidade do Rio de Janeiro, em relação ao risco de erosão costeira provocada pela elevação do nível do mar devido a mudanças climáticas. Foram realizados diversos ensaios em modelo reduzido em canal de ondas, admitindo várias cotas do nível do mar e alturas significativas de onda produzidas em tempestades com períodos de recorrência de um, dez e cem anos. Considerando o perfil atual da praia do Leme, foram estudados os efeitos da elevação do nível do mar em termos da erosão do fundo marinho e da possibilidade de ondas ultrapassarem a crista da orla, com invasão d’água em prédios residenciais e formação de depósitos de areia em calçadas e vias públicas. Como medida de engenharia para mitigação desses efeitos, foi verificada a influência da construção de quebra-mares submersos na proteção da orla do Leme por meio de uma série de ensaios em modelos reduzidos.

Análise de dados categóricos de integridade celular de cianobactérias

Published: December 2020

As técnicas utilizadas em estudos de integridade/viabilidade celular de cianobactérias fornecem duas respostas: células intactas ou não. Esses valores categóricos e dicotômicos dificultam muitas vezes a análise estatística dos resultados. Nesse contexto, o objetivo desse trabalho é apresentar duas metodologias para análise desses dados, mostrando uma sequência detalhada de procedimentos que permitam avaliar, com o rigor estatístico necessário, dados categorizados de integridade celular. Para tal, foram utilizados 3600 registros de integridade celular de Dc e Rr. Na abordagem tradicional identificou-se associação entre causa (perda de integridade celular) e efeito (condições de mistura) somente para Dc. Todavia, para quantificar essas associações, fez-se necessário o cálculo da razão de chances (OR), o que tornou o processo mais laborioso. Já na abordagem alternativa (regressão logística), as OR foram estimadas por meio da comparação das chances de dois cenários, tornando o processo mais rápido. No entanto, devido ao sinergismo entre as variáveis do modelo, deve-se ter cautela com as interpretações dos resultados. Portanto, a combinação dessas abordagens, seguindo os procedimentos propostos, permite uma interpretação mais assertiva de fenômenos com respostas dicotômicas, tais como integridade/viabilidade de cianobactérias.

ATIVIDADE FÍSICA E SEUS DIFERENTES MÉTODOS DE ANÁLISE:
UMA REVISÃO NARRATIVA
Authors: Carvalho Anderson dos Santos , Abdalla Pedro Pugliesi , Garcia Júnior Jair Rodrigues , Venturini Ana Claudia Rossini , Vilela Júnior Guanis de Barros
Published: December 2020

O objetivo foi realizar uma revisão narrativa de caráter descritivo sobre os diferentes métodos e instrumentos para medir o nível de atividade física. Atividade Física é definida como qualquer movimento corporal produzido por contrações musculares que resulta num acréscimo do gasto energético além dos níveis de repouso. Este é um comportamento complexo que inclui atividades livres (e.g. caminhar de um local para outro, correr, saltar, nadar, andar de bicicleta, subir e descer escadas, realizar afazeres domésticos, atividades de lazer, entre outros), e também atividades esportivas ou programadas. A organização mundial da saúde recomenda que as crianças/adolescentes tenham dispêndio semanal de pelo menos 300 min em atividades físicas com intensidades de moderada a vigorosa, enquanto os adultos de pelo menos 150 min semanais. Entretanto, essa mensuração de forma efetiva para identificar se a prática de atividade física está atingindo o nível recomendado tem se tornado um grande desafio para os profissionais da saúde. Assim, os profissionais de educação física necessitam encontrar os métodos e instrumentos adequados para avaliar o nível de atividade física dos seus alunos, para garantir que tenham um estilo de vida ativo fisicamente.

Delimitation of peripheral regions of Czechia and their features studied with the help of statistical analysis
Authors: Marada Miroslav
Published: December 2020

The paper examines the possibilities of using statistical analysis when studying peripheral regions on the case of Czechia. At first, peripheral districts were delimited with the help of componental analysis on the basis of six indices. The only extracted component is interpreted and the distribution of districts component scores is depicted in a cartogram. Peripheral regions are shortly commented. Secondly, the calculated componental score was correlated to the districts location indices and to the physical geographical characteristics in view to describe the impact of natural conditions and geographic position on the current location of peripheral and core territories. The attention is also paid to the correlations of the componental score to the selected social economic indices and the established relations are commented. Finally, the author tries to formulate a definition of peripheral region under the conditions of the Czech Republic.
Second Housing and Its Relations to Peripheral Regions
Authors: Fialová Dana
Published: December 2020

The article aims to define the role of second housing on the Czech territory with regards to the current settlement structure and its history. The emergence of second houses that came to existence through functional conversion of formerly permanently inhabited houses can serve as one of indicators for delimitation of peripheral regions. Such peripheral regions, however, have specific characteristics as the use of these regions varies greatly during the year and even during one week.
