General Practitioners’ Awareness and Perception of Current Pneumococcal Vaccination for Adult Patients with Known Risk Factors in Switzerland: Evidence from a Survey
Authors: Stoffel Sandro Tiziano , Schwenkglenks Matthias , Mutschler Thomas
Published: June 2023

In Switzerland, the National Immunization Advisory Group (NITAG) has formulated recommendations for pneumococcal vaccination among adult risk patients. Little is known about general practitioners’ (GPs’) perception, knowledge, and implementation of these recommendations. Therefore, we investigated GPs’ awareness and drivers of and barriers to pneumococcal vaccination using a cross-sectional web-based survey of GPs. Of the 300 study participants, 81.3% were aware of the recommendations for vaccinating at-risk adult patients, but only 42.7% were aware of all risk groups. The recommendations were perceived by 79.7% as slightly to very complex. Most GPs (66.7%) had good arguments to convince patients to get vaccinated, but only 41.7% reported recognizing patients at risk for pneumococcal disease, and only 46.7% checked their patients’ vaccination status and proposed vaccination if needed. The main reasons for not vaccinating were patients’ refusal (80.1%), lack of reimbursement by the health insurance (34.5%), patients’ fear of side effects (25.1%), and lack of regulatory approval despite the NITAG recommendations (23.7%). Most (77.3%) agreed that the treating chronic disease specialist should recommend the vaccination and 94.7% believed that adult-risk patients would not be aware of their need for pneumococcal vaccinations. Optimal implementation of the recommendations will require addressing knowledge gaps and reported barriers.

Published: June 2023

The emergence of antibiotic-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii strains with limited treatment options has become a significant global health concern. Efforts to develop vaccines against the bacteria have centred on several potential protein targets, including the TonB-dependent receptors (TBDRs). In the present study, TBDRs from A. baumannii were displayed on the surface of Bacillus subtilis spores. The immunogenicity of the recombinant spores was evaluated in orally vaccinated mice. None of the immunized mice demonstrated signs of illness and were observed to be healthy throughout the study. Sera and the intestinal secretions from the recombinant spores-treated mice demonstrated mucosal and humoral antibody responses to the vaccine antigen. In addition, bactericidal activities of the sera against A. baumannii clinical isolates were demonstrated. These observations suggest that the B. subtilis spore-displayed TBDRs should be further explored as much-needed potential oral vaccine candidates against A. baumannii.

Published: June 2023

This descriptive, observational paper utilizes the comparative case study approach to analyze the application of the HIPE™ Framework to two health campaigns addressing vaccine hesitancy in underserved communities. Exposure to inaccurate/misleading health information impacts vaccination adoption, especially for individuals with low health/digital literacy. Underserved groups—like minority, racial/ethnic, or rural populations—typically have lower literacy and higher rates of vaccine hesitancy. Grounded in persuasion and behavioral change theory, the Health Information Persuasion Exploration (HIPE™) Framework was applied to the Black/Haitian community in Miami-Dade, Florida and the Migrant Agricultural Worker Community in Central Valley, California. The campaigns addressed each community’s unique characteristics via Detect, Analyze, Design, and Evaluate phases of the HIPE framework. Both campaigns achieved their respective vaccine uptake goals. For Miami-Dade, over 850 vaccinations were administered (the goal was 800 vaccinations), and vaccination rates increased by 25.22%. In Central Valley, vaccination rates for 5–11-year-old children in Merced and Stanislaus counties increased about 20% and 14%, respectively, and overall vaccination rates increased compared to surrounding counties. Discussion of the results and recommendations for future research highlight the potential efficacy of applying the HIPE™ Framework for developing health campaigns and response strategies to improve health outcomes.
Simultaneous Mixotrophic Nitrate Removal and Phosphorus Removal in a Sponge-Iron Denitrifying Filter

Published: June 2023

Due to stricter municipal wastewater discharge standards, there is an increased need for further treatment of nitrate in the secondary effluent of wastewater treatment plants. This is achieved through denitrification by the addition of external carbon sources, which leads to increased costs in wastewater treatment. The aim of this study was to examine the possibility of simultaneous removal of nitrate and phosphorus from simulated secondary effluent by employing a sponge-iron-based denitrifying filter at room temperature. The results indicate that at hydraulic retention times of over 2 h, more than 60% of the nitrate was reduced to ammonia and nitrite via iron-based abiotic nitrate reduction. However, sponge iron easily scaled after two months of operation. Therefore, a little glucose was added to the influent, resulting in a final COD/N ratio of 1:1. Mixotrophic nitrate reduction was observed, and the rust of sponge iron was successfully dissolved. Batch test results demonstrate that biological nitrate denitrification accounted for 70.0% of the total nitrate reduction. Additionally, high-efficiency phosphorus removal through the chemical reaction of released iron and phosphorus was achieved throughout the entire experiment, with removal efficiencies of more than 90% at hydraulic retention times of over 2 h. Moreover, high-throughput sequencing data show that the species diversity obviously increased after adding organic carbon, suggesting the coexistence of heterotrophic and autotrophic denitrifiers. Hence, the sponge-iron denitrifying filter has considerable prospects in the field of secondary effluent treatment and is likely to be the future direction of zero-valent iron application in sewage treatment.

Preparation of Chitosan-Diatomite/Calcium Alginate Composite Hydrogel Beads for the Adsorption of Congo Red Dye
Authors: Zhao Dianjia , Shen Xizhou
Published: June 2023

In this paper, novel eco-friendly cross-linked chitosan-diatomite/calcium alginate (CS-DE@CA) composite hydrogel beads were successfully prepared for water purification. The obtained sorbents were characterized and studied by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), which confirmed the successful modification and encapsulation of diatomite into hydrogel beads. The adsorption performance of composite beads for Congo red in an aqueous solution was studied by ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry. In particular, the CS-DE@CA exhibited higher removal efficiencies (~89.9%) than the removal efficiencies (~83.6%) of the DE@CA (in the temperature = 20 °C, 100 mL, 50 mg/L, and pH = 7). It was also found that adsorption capacity of Congo red increased from 23.28 mg/g to 38.84 mg/g when the starting concentration increased from 25 mg/L to 75 mg/L. The adsorption process was dominated by chemisorption, and its maximum adsorption capacity for Congo red was calculated to be 48.42 mg/g by Langmuir model. Additionally, the as-prepared sorbent maintained an exceptional adsorption capacity after four adsorption–desorption cycles. Overall, this study also provides new guidance and avenues for further fabrication and development of eco-friendly purifier for the removal of Congo red in contaminated water.

Published: June 2023

Urban lake wetlands play an essential role in providing ecological services, promoting urban sustainability, and enhancing the quality of urban life. This study quantitatively assesses the ecosystem services value (ESV) of the Zhangdu, East, and Ziyang urban lake wetlands in Wuhan, China, based on primary survey data and methodologies, including the market price, shadow engineering, and travel cost methods. The ESV is categorized into direct use value (DUV), indirect use value (IUV), and non-use value (NUV). Our findings reveal that the non-use value proportion is significant, amounting to 1.569 × 108 CNY × yr−1 for Zhangdu Lake, 1.527 × 108 CNY × yr−1 for East Lake, and 1.060 × 108 CNY × yr−1 for Ziyang Lake. This indicates a high willingness to pay among respondents, reflecting a recognition of the value of wetland services. In addition to the non-use value, this study underscores the considerable material production, water conservation, and leisure tourism value that these urban lake wetlands provide. The assessment of ESV delivers a scientific basis for the management and protection of urban lake wetlands. It also highlights the challenges faced, such as pollution and fragmented management approaches due to unclear property rights and insufficient funding. This study concludes by emphasizing the need for future research to explore mechanisms that promote social participation in wetland management, with the aim of enhancing the overall ecological health of urban lake wetlands.
Influence of Terrain Factors on Urban Pluvial Flooding Characteristics: A Case Study of a Small Watershed in Guangzhou, China

Published: June 2023

Urban roads in China, particularly low-lying areas such as underpasses, tunnels, and culverts, are highly vulnerable to the dangers of urban pluvial flooding. We used spatial interpolation methods and limited measured data to assign elevation values to the road surface. The road network was divided into tiny squares, enabling us to calculate each square’s elevation, slope, and curvature. Statistical analysis was then employed to evaluate the impact of terrain on flood characteristics in urban road systems. Our analysis reveals a strong spatial correspondence between the distribution of flood-prone points and the curvature parameters of the terrain. The spatial coincidence rate can reach 100% when an appropriate sampling scale is chosen. The presence of depressions is necessary but insufficient for forming flood-prone points. In lowland/gentle slope (LL/GS) areas with higher drainage pressure, we observe a significant negative correlation between flood-prone points and terrain curvature (Spearman’s r = 0.205, p < 0.01). However, in highland/steep slope (HL/SS) areas, we find no significant correlation between them. Notably, terrain matters, but effective drainage is more influential in flood-prone areas. The maximum flood depth (MFD), submerged area, and ponding volume during urban pluvial flooding are constrained by depression topography, while the characteristics of the upstream catchment area also play a role in determining the MFD and flood peak lag time(FPLT). Larger upstream catchment areas and longer flow paths normally result in greater MFD and longer emergency response times/FPLT. Additionally, a higher flow path gradient will directly contribute to an increased flood risk (greater MFD and shorter FPLT). These findings have important implications for flood risk identification and the development of effective flood mitigation strategies.

Published: June 2023

Pharmaceutical personal care products (PPCPs) have increased in consumption due to the worldwide post-pandemic situation, marking them as chemical and pathogenic pollutants in significantly higher concentrations than ever in the ecosystem. Considering the inexplicable levels of these chemical residues discharged into the environment, concerns have been raised regarding their probable ecotoxicity to marine and terrestrial life. A further concern is the potential for developing and spreading antibiotic-resistant microorganisms and genes in aquatic ecosystems due to antibiotic exposure. Hence, knowing how these compounds impact aquatic ecosystem functioning is imperative, and thus is a critical area of research. The ecological risk analysis of PPCPs in aquatic ecosystems has been carried out using various strategies. Previous studies have reported numerous approaches for eliminating these PPCPs, including conventional treatment methods, activated sludge processes, generated wetlands, biological remediation, sequencing batch reactors, phytoremediation, and membrane bioreactors. In terms of green biotechnology approaches, the current research aims to discover effective procedures for removing PPCPs and their emerging resources as pollutants. Therefore, this review focuses on the over-extensive utilization of PPCPs and their emergent sources responsible for the contamination and environmental threat for future wastewater purposes. Further, as fungi and their enzymes and derivatives can remove pharmaceuticals and personal care products from wastewater through oxidation and several processes, they have attracted the attention of the scientific community due to their ability to remove PPCPs as pollutants and their status as emerging resources in wastewater. This review examines the fundamental approach and progress of the bioremediation of pharmaceutical- and personal-care-contaminated wastewater using fungal-based systems. It also discusses mechanistic approaches through hybridizing cultures and other biological systems with fungal strains, current technologies, and prospects for future research on PPCPs in wastewater treatment.

Four Approaches to Building Extension Program Evaluation Capacity
Authors: Franz Nancy , Archibald Thomas
Published: June 2023

Extension educators are expected to more fully evaluate programs. In response, evaluation capacity building (ECB) is a necessary component of Extension educator professional development. One size rarely fits all; ECB more likely succeeds if it is well aligned with the educator's evaluation needs and the type of educational effort. Four approaches to Extension work have been documented—service, facilitation, content transmission, and transformative education. These approaches require different evaluation measures and therefore different forms of ECB.

Hey, Siri, What Is the Future of Extension?
Authors: King Dave
Published: June 2023

Extension faces unprecedented competition in the information marketplace. Although this is not a new concern, today Extension's competitors are no longer an abstract potential. They reside in our homes across the country. Is the past truly prologue? Is Extension destined to continue to experience erosion of audiences and political support? Or are there opportunities for Extension professionals to step up and stem the flow? The answer to the last question is yes, but doing so will take an understanding of the new competitors in the information marketplace and investments in innovation that do more than just sustain Extension's current market position.

Published: June 2023

Abstract

Background: Cystic echinococcosis (CE) of the liver is a parasitic disease caused by the larvae of Echinococcus granulosus. Although CE is a disease with benign characteristics, its morbidity is high in the presence of complicated cysts. The most important complications are fistulization of the biliary tract and intraperitoneal cyst ruptures

Material Methods: Patients who underwent surgery for CE in Atatürk University Research Hospital between 2011 and 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. Demographic information, CE localization, cyst size, CE classification, surgical techniques and hospitalization time of all operated patients were recorded. The effect of all data types on the categorical variable was analyzed using binary logistic regression.

Results: Of the patients, 299 (60.2%) were female, and 198 (39.8%) were male. The mean age was 41 ± 15.48 and 41 ± 15.36 years in the group with and without bile fistula, respectively. We found a significant difference in mean cyst sizes between the two groups. Cyst location and cyst type according to WHO classification had a statistically significant effect on the cysto biliary communication (p: 0.00, p: 0.00, respectively. Analysis by cyst types showed that CE 1, CE2, CE3A, and CE3B cysts were statistically significantly effective on biliary fistula formation. CE 1 type cysts were more effective than other cyst types. CE 2, CE3A, and CE 3B cysts were less effective than CE1

Conclusion: The risk of bile leakage is higher in hepatic hydatid cysts located in the left lobe and in CE1 cysts. The incidence of bile leakage increases in large cysts.

Betalains in practical medicine
Authors: Koldaev V. M. , Kropotov A. V. , Li O. N.
Published: June 2023

Betalains are plant pigments synthesized in the cells of Caryophyllales (red beets, opuntia, etc.). They are involved in the inactivation of reactive oxygen species and free radicals. The paper summarizes the data on the physical-chemical and pharmacological properties of betalains. Betalains eliminate the consequences of oxidative stress, effectively correct metabolic disorders in diabetes mellitus and abdominal obesity, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. A betalain-enriched diet has a wide range of anticancer effects. Betalains protect brain dopaminergic neurons from oxidative damage and reduce the severity of neurodegenerative disorders in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. However, betalains are not stable enough to resist degradation during processing and storage of plant raw materials. Therefore, developing non-damaging technologies for betalain-containing treatment is highly relevant.

Contribución al estudio de la influencia del suelo en la composición química del tabaco
Authors:   , Manini Alice
Published: June 2023

Los diversos trabajos realizados por investigadores de todas las naciones entre los que merecen citarse nombres como Loew, Knop y Nobbe, Stoklasa, Bertrand, Demousy, etc. sobre la acción de las sales en el desarrollo y composición de las plantas, hiciéronme pensar que estudiando el tabaco, podía obtener resultados positivos ensayando su cultivo no en la forma natural sino modificando el suelo con el agregado de ciertas sales. Sin pretender haber realizado ninguna labor trascendente dentro de la modesta esfera en que he realizado la investigación pienso que los resultados de este trabajo pueden agregar una confirmación más ya que no puedo decir, una comprobación más al principio que declara la ventaja indiscutible en la utilización de abonos químicos para el cultivo del tabaco. No podemos dejar pasar desapercibida la circunstancia de que en nuestro país interesa toda la labor que tienda a mejorar las condiciones de esta industria, ya que a pesar de las amplias perspectivas que podría tener, aún no ha llegado ni siquiera a un mediano desarrollo. Este estudio de cuya marcha y resultado doy cuenta mas adelante, lo he realizado de acuerdo al plan que acompaño, tratando de hacerlo dentro de un orden que considero el más adecuado y el mas lógico: - Consideraciones generales. - Estudio de las tierras empleadas en los cultivos. - Estudio de la evolución de las plantas por acción de las sales empleadas. - Resultado del estudio químico de los tabacos cosechados. - Conclusiones

НОВІ МЕДІА ТА СУЧАСНА МЕДІАКУЛЬТУРА
Authors: Уварова Тетяна
Published: June 2023

Розглядаються нові медіа як явище сучасної медіакультури. Нові медіа досліджуються як технологічний процес, який з виникненням і розповсюдженням Інтернету сприяв формуванню інформаційної глобальної системи. Зазначено, що нові медіа пов’язані з процесом дигіталізації, тобто переведення інформації у цифровий формат. Проаналізовані основні характеристики нових медіа: мультимедійність – як надання різноманітних за своєю природою форматів інформації в одному медійному джерелі; персоналізація – як орієнтація на користувача інформації; інтерактивнисть – як активна участь користувачів у створенні й розповсюдженні контенту та конвергенція – як злиття різних медіа на одній технологічній платформі.Досліджено основні впливи нових медіа на становлення і формування сучасної медіакультури. В першу чергу – трансформація інформаційної парадигми, що викликана доступністю, швидкістю та надлишковістю інформації. Акцентовано увагу на якості інформації у сучасному медіапросторі. Розглянуто питання впливу нових медіа на формування медіа-реальності і віртуалізацію дійсності. Визначено, що провідну роль у віртуалізаціії реальності відіграють соціальні мережі. В них віртуальність і симулятивність стають нарівні з реальністю, тобто мають однаковий онтологічний зміст. Зроблено висновок, що формування нової медіакультури закономірним еволюційним етапом. Особливу увагу у сучасності слід приділити розвитку медіаграмотності та відповідальності за створений і розповсюджений контент.
