Facilitating discontinuation of intravenous opioids by concurrent use of sublingual buprenorphine with rapid microdosing induction: A pain management case study
Authors: Tara, DO Arjun , Acampora, MD Gregory , Wang, MD, PhD Jingping , De Sousa, BS Karina , Zhang, MD, PhD Yi
Published: August 2021

We report a case in which sublingual buprenorphine was used to help transition a patient off intravenous (IV) opioid analgesics medications post-multiple abdominal procedures. Intravenous opioids are commonly used in inpatient surgical pain management for patients with severe pain who are unable to take oral medications. Typically, a short course of IV analgesics is used, followed by transition to oral analgesic regimen. However, in patients with poor gastrointestinal absorption, pain control can be challenging. We present this case to highlight how sublingual buprenorphine can be a useful agent for acute pain management, especially when conventional strategies provide suboptimal responses.
Perioperative outcomes for patients on chronic buprenorphine undergoing spine surgery: A case series
Authors: Sharp, MD Ashley L. , Gilbert, MD Stephanie , Perez, MD Danielle N. , Kolodzie, MD, PhD, MAS Kerstin , Behrends, MD Matthias
Published: August 2021

Objective: Pain management following spine surgery can be challenging as patients routinely suffer from chronic pain and opioid tolerance. The increasing popularity of buprenorphine use for pain management in this population may further complicate perioperative pain management due to the limited efficacy of other opioids in the presence of buprenorphine. This study describes perioperative management and outcomes in patients on chronic buprenorphine who underwent elective inpatient spine surgery.Design: The authors performed a retrospective chart review of all patients >18 years of age taking chronic buprenorphine for any indication who had elective inpatient spine surgery at a single institution. Perioperative pain management data were analyzed for all patients who underwent spine surgery and were maintained on buprenorphine during their hospital stay.Setting: The study was performed at a single tertiary academic medical center. Main outcome measures: The primary outcome measures were post-operative pain scores and analgesic medication requirements.Results: Twelve patients on buprenorphine underwent inpatient spine surgery. Acceptable pain control was achieved in all cases. Management included preoperative dose limitation of buprenorphine when indicated and the extensive use of multimodal analgesia.Conclusion: The question whether patients presenting for painful, elective surgery should continue using buprenorphine perioperatively is an area of controversy, and the present manuscript provides more evidence for the concept of therapy continuation with buprenorphine.

Authors: Ebbinkhuijsen Ming , Daalmans Serena , Kleemans Mariska
Published: August 2021

Samenvatting

Om een actueel beeld te krijgen van angstreacties van kinderen op het NOS Jeugdjournaal is een survey afgenomen onder 892 kinderen (9-12 jaar). Bijna alle participanten (94.5%) kijken regelmatig naar het NOS Jeugdjournaal. Het merendeel van deze kinderen ervaart angstreacties door dit nieuws, maar gemiddeld worden ze slechts een klein beetje bang. Vooral meisjes en jongere kinderen lijken kwetsbaarder voor angstaanjagende nieuwsinhoud.
Mediakritiek of anti-journalistiek?
Authors: De Mulder August , Paulussen Steve
Published: August 2021

Samenvatting

Politici verwijzen in hun tweets vaak naar de media. Dergelijke mediaverwijzingen gaan soms gepaard met mediakritiek. Een inhoudsanalyse van tweets van Vlaamse politici toont dat zij de media geregeld bekritiseren, al zijn er verschillen tussen partijen. Populistische mediakritiek of ‘anti-journalistiek’ is hierbij eerder zeldzaam, behalve bij het extreemrechtse Vlaams Belang en bij sommige politici van de Vlaams-nationalistische partij N-VA.

Abstract. National greenhouse gas inventories (GHGIs) are submitted annually to the
United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). They are
estimated in compliance with Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) methodological guidance using activity data, emission factors and
facility-level measurements. For some sources, the outputs from these
calculations are very uncertain. Inverse modelling techniques that use
high-quality, long-term measurements of atmospheric gases have been developed to provide independent verification of national GHGIs. This is considered good practice by the IPCC as it helps national inventory compilers to verify reported emissions and to reduce emission uncertainty. Emission estimates from the InTEM (Inversion Technique for Emission Modelling) model are presented for the UK for the hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) reported to the UNFCCC (HFC-125, HFC-134a, HFC-143a, HFC-152a, HFC-23, HFC-32, HFC-227ea, HFC-245fa, HFC-43-10mee and HFC-365mfc). These HFCs have high global warming potentials (GWPs), and the global background mole fractions of all but two are increasing, thus highlighting their relevance to the climate and a need for increasing the accuracy of emission estimation for regulatory purposes. This study presents evidence that the long-term annual increase in growth of HFC-134a has stopped and is now decreasing. For HFC-32 there is an early indication, its rapid global growth period has ended, and there is evidence that the annual increase
in global growth for HFC-125 has slowed from 2018. The inverse modelling
results indicate that the UK implementation of European Union regulation of
HFC emissions has been successful in initiating a decline in UK emissions from 2018. Comparison of the total InTEM UK HFC emissions in 2020 with the average from 2009–2012 shows a drop of 35 %, indicating progress toward the target of a 79 % decrease in sales by 2030. The total InTEM HFC emission estimates (2008–2018) are on average 73 (62–83) % of, or 4.3 (2.7–5.9) Tg CO2-eq yr−1 lower than, the
total HFC emission estimates from the UK GHGI. There are also
significant discrepancies between the two estimates for the individual HFCs.

Abstract. After the successful launch of Aeolus which is the first spaceborne wind lidar developed by the European Space Agency (ESA) on 22 August 2018, we deployed several ground-based coherent Doppler wind lidars (CDLs) to verify the wind observations from Aeolus. By the simultaneous wind measurements with CDLs at 17 stations over China, the Rayleigh-clear and Mie-cloudy horizontal-line-of-sight (HLOS) wind velocities from Aeolus in the atmospheric boundary layer are compared with that from CDLs. To ensure the quality of the measurement data from CDL and Aeolus, strict quality controls are applied in this study. Overall, 52 simultaneous Mie-cloudy comparison pairs and 387 Rayleigh-clear comparison pairs from this campaign are acquired. All of the Aeolus-produced L2B Mie-cloudy HLOS, Rayleigh-clear HLOS and CDL-produced HLOS are compared individually. For the inter-comparison result of Mie-cloudy HLOS wind and CDL-produced HLOS wind, the correlation coefficient, the standard deviation, the scaled MAD and the bias are 0.83, 3.15 m/s, 2.64 m/s and −0.25 m/s respectively, while the "y = ax" slope, the "y = ax + b" slope and the "y = ax + b" intercept are 0.93, 0.92 and −0.33 m/s. For the Rayleigh-clear HLOS wind, the correlation coefficient, the standard deviation, the scaled MAD and the bias are 0.62, 7.07 m/s, 5.77 m/s and −1.15 m/s respectively, while the "y = ax" slope, the "y = ax + b" slope and the "y = ax + b" intercept are 1.00, 0.96 and −1.2 m/s. It is found that the standard deviation, the scaled MAD and the bias on ascending tracks are slightly better than that on descending tracks. Moreover, to evaluate the accuracy of Aeolus HLOS wind measurements under different product baselines, the Aeolus L2B Mie-cloudy HLOS wind data and L2B Rayleigh-clear HLOS wind data under Baselines 07/08, Baselines 09/10, and Baseline 11 are compared against the CDL-retrieved HLOS wind data separately. From the comparison results, marked misfits between the wind data from Aeolus Baselines 07/08 and wind data from CDL in planetary boundary layer are found. With the continuous calibration and validation and product processor updates, the performances of Aeolus wind measurements under Baselines 09/10 and Baseline 11 are improved significantly. Considering the influence of turbulence and convection in the planetary boundary layers, higher values for the vertical velocity are common in this region. Hence, as a special note, the vertical velocity could impact the HLOS wind velocity retrieval from Aeolus.
Sediment size on talus slopes correlates with fracture spacing on bedrock cliffs: implications for predicting initial sediment size distributions on hillslopes
Authors: Verdian Joseph P. , Sklar Leonard S. , Riebe Clifford S. , Moore Jeffrey R.
Published: August 2021

Abstract. The detachment of rock fragments from fractured bedrock on hillslopes creates sediment with an initial size distribution that sets the upper limits
on particle size for all subsequent stages in the evolution of sediment in landscapes. We hypothesize that the initial size distribution should
depend on the size distribution of latent sediment (i.e., fracture-bound blocks in unweathered bedrock) and weathering of blocks both before and
during detachment (e.g., disintegration along crystal grain boundaries). However, the initial size distribution is difficult to measure because the
interface across which sediment is produced is often shielded from view by overlying soil. Here we overcome this limitation by comparing fracture
spacings measured from exposed bedrock on cliff faces with particle size distributions in adjacent talus deposits at 15 talus–cliff pairs spanning a
wide range of climates and lithologies in California. Median fracture spacing and particle size vary by more than 10-fold and correlate strongly
with lithology. Fracture spacing and talus size distributions are also closely correlated in central tendency, spread, and shape, with b-axis
diameters showing the closest correspondence with fracture spacing at most sites. This suggests that weathering has not modified latent sediment
either before or during detachment from the cliff face. In addition, talus at our sites has not undergone much weathering after deposition and is
slightly coarser than the latent sizes because it contains unexploited fractures inherited from bedrock. We introduce a new conceptual framework
for understanding the relative importance of latent size and weathering in setting initial sediment size distributions in mountain landscapes. In
this framework, hillslopes exist on a spectrum defined by the ratio of two characteristic timescales: the residence time in saprolite and weathered
bedrock and the time required to detach a particle of a characteristic size. At one end of the spectrum, where weathering residence times are
negligible, the latent size distribution can be used to predict the initial size distribution. At the other end of the spectrum, where weathering
residence times are long, the latent size distribution can be erased by weathering in the critical zone.
EXPLORATION OF THE METHOD OF TRACING THE BOUNDARY AND PATTERN OF THE IMPERIAL GARDEN BY FOLLOWING THE TRACES OF HISTORY – TAKING CHANGCHUN GARDEN AS AN EXAMPLE
Authors: Song G. X.
Published: August 2021

Abstract. In the process of digital restoration of cultural heritage, for the disappeared royal gardens, where information is relatively scarce, the process of accurate digital restoration usually encounters a problem of how to effectively use the fragmented and limited historical and status quo information for discernment, to achieve accurate digital alignment restoration of the disappeared royal gardens in the region, and to complete the overall digital restoration of boundaries and patterns. Taking Changchun Garden as an example, this paper uses recent status quo mapping, aerial photography and current status quo structures as the basis, historical archival materials, style house plans, early mapping, early aerial photography and various historical documents as the starting point for the credibility and priority of various materials, and uses the iconic remaining information of key locations, such as buildings, water systems and fences, through historical traces, relative positions and proportional relationships. The identification of the 'line' is done by using the 'point' to determine the location of the wall in the east, north, west and south directions, thus defining the boundary and pattern of the historical Changchun Garden. This approach is based on the disappearing royal gardens and the digital restoration process can be effective in completing the task of solving problems and giving ideas and directions to those working in the relevant fields.
FROM 2D (TO 3D) TO 2.5D – NOT ALL GRIDDED DIGITAL SURFACES ARE CREATED EQUALLY
Authors: Verhoeven G. J. , Santner M. , Trinks I.
Published: August 2021

Abstract. The surface of most heritage objects holds important clues about their creation. To answer specific research questions about a 16th-century mural painting located in the Bischofstor of Vienna's St. Stephen's Cathedral, the three-dimensional (3D) geometry of the entire painted surface was digitised in minuscule detail using thousands of overlapping photographs. Although this article provides image acquisition and processing specifics, it aims to assess which image-based modelling workflow can achieve the most detailed, noise-free, two-and-a-half dimensional (2.5D) raster surface of this mural painting. Other than their full 3D counterparts and in contrast to the focus of most academic research, 2.5D raster surfaces are ideally suited for visualising and analysing sizeable, detailed surfaces. They are, therefore, still the preferred surface encoding of many heritage projects that want to leverage digital surface approximations to further heritage insights (and not just use them as mere eyecatchers). In the end, only a combination of different 2.5D rasters was able to accurately represent the variable surface of this mural painting with the right amount of spatial detail.
APPLICATION OF DIGITAL HERITAGE DOCUMENTATION FOR CONDITION ASSESSMENTS AND MONITORING CHANGE IN UZBEKISTAN

Abstract. Cultural heritage is facing irreversible changes due to anthropogenic and natural impacts. Condition assessment is a holistic approach to analyse the historic buildings, structures or sites to record changes and understand their deterioration and causes. Detailed documentation is an essential first step for mapping the condition, analyse, give a diagnosis and propose conservation measures. However, not all the time the appropriate documentation is available or recorded towards this means, making difficult a proper assessment. This paper presents a review of digital documentation tools supporting a systematic assessment of the condition and changes of historic structures. The application aerial and close-range photogrammetry and panoramic photography is illustrated using two case studies within the World Heritage properties in the Central Asia region, Itchan Kala and the Historic Centre of Bukhara in Uzbekistan.
“WHAT IS OUV” REVISITED: A COMPUTATIONAL INTERPRETATION ON THE STATEMENTS OF OUTSTANDING UNIVERSAL VALUE
Authors: Bai N. , Nourian P. , Luo R. , Pereira Roders A.
Published: August 2021

Abstract. The Statements of Outstanding Universal Value (OUV) concerns the core justification for nominating and inscribing cultural and natural heritage properties on the UNESCO World Heritage List, ever since 2007. Ten criteria are specified and measured independently for the selection process. The 2008 ICOMOS Report “What is OUV” has been a successful example to interpret OUV as an integral concept by inspecting the associations of the selection criteria in all inscribed properties. This paper presents a novel methodology for interpreting OUV using computational techniques of Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning, and Graph Visualization. Firstly, frequent phrases appearing in Statements of OUV are used to construct a lexicon for each selection criterion; Secondly, three similarity matrices are constructed as graphs to represent the pair-wise associations of the criteria; Lastly, the lexicon and graphs are visualized in 2D. The study shows that the lexicon derived from computational techniques can capture the essential concepts of OUV, and that the selection criteria are consistently associated with each other in different similarity metrics. This study provides a quantitative and qualitative interpretation of the Statements of OUV and the associations of selection criteria, which can be seen as an elaborated computational extension of the 2008 Report, useful for future inscription and evaluation process of World Heritage nominations.
THE DIGITAL EPHEMER: HENRY III OF FRANCE IN VENICE (1574)

Published: August 2021

Abstract. Sometimes digital reconstruction interfaces with the ephemeral aspect of the Cultural Heritage. Photogrammetric survey, integrated with the most up-to-date visualization technologies, aims to the production of 3D models that can recreate and document the artifacts that were made to be short-lived.The paper deals with the documentation of an historical event: the stay of Henry III of France in Venice in 1574. This happening has been studied as part of the journey from Poland to France, undertaken by the king through Austria and northern Italy. Many royal events were organized and among the architectural and sculptural works that were made for the occasion, two stand out: the ephemeral triumphal arch and loggia designed by Andrea Palladio for the grand entry of the King and the three hundred sugar sculptures cast from moulds obtained from Jacopo Sansovino’s workshop.Historical research, iconography and cartography, along with the photogrammetric survey of some artworks still visible today, allowed the three-dimensional reconstruction of the temporary structures and sugar sculptures created for this historical event and made to last only for the ten days of his stay.The purpose of this research is to map the movements of the King and recreate the works of art that were created for him in various parts of Venice, according to a geographic and scientific approach, by framing them in space and time and employing the 3D models to project the observer into 16th century Venice.The integration of methods and techniques pertaining to geomatics and three-dimensional computer graphics allow us to animate and reconstruct images of no longer existing places and works of art which were made to be fleeting but scenic at the same time and arouse amazement between the leading personalities of those times.The “digitalization of the ephemeral” aims to bring these artifacts back to memory, following a meticulous process based on the examination of the historical sources together with cartographic data and a scientific survey.
INTEGRATION BETWEEN BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR HISTORIC BUILDINGS AND SITES: HISTORIC-BIM-GIS
Authors: Barazzetti L.
Published: August 2021

Abstract. The paper presents a novel prototype of integrated Historic BIM-GIS able to deal with multi-source, -scale, and -temporal information. It combines elements from the cartographic scale to a more detailed level of detail towards the building. It can be defined as a 3D virtual environment with an associate (geo)database able to encapsulate heterogeneous data not limited to products derived from the geometric survey, notwithstanding digital recording and its deliverables play a fundamental role. The system also provides a good interoperability level so that BIM and GIS software can exchange information, avoiding the implementation of functions and tools already available in other software packages. The example proposed in this contribution is related to the system of fortified structures around the city of Sondrio. Here, a single 3D environment was developed to encapsulate information from the cartographic level in an area of more than 135 km2 to the scale of 1:1 for specific architectural elements.
Α PATTERN-BASED AUGMENTED REALITY APPLICATION FOR THE DISSEMINATION OF CULTURAL HERITAGE
Authors: Boutsi A.-M. , Verykokou S. , Soile S. , Ioannidis C.
Published: August 2021

Abstract. Augmented Reality (AR) is more than an added value for Cultural Heritage (CH); it is vital for its sustainability, promotion and dissemination, increasing accessibility in CH even during difficult periods of time, like the Covid-19 pandemic. In order to be meaningful and engaging, an AR application should have the following characteristics: easiness of use, high-quality representations and compatibility. This paper presents a marker-less mobile AR application for the display and inspection of high-resolution 3D cultural assets, overlayed on a particular location in the real-world scene. Instead of predefined markers, an image captured by the user is exploited as a pattern for real-time feature matching, pose estimation and scene augmentation. Our approach is based on pure computer vision and photogrammetric techniques, implemented using native C++ and Java code for Android mobile platforms. It is built with the use of the OpenCV library and the OpenGL ES graphics API without any dependencies of AR Software Development Kits (SDKs). Therefore, it supports cross-vendor portability regarding mobile model devices and hardware specifications. The evaluation of the developed application examines the performance of various matching techniques and the overall responsiveness of processing and 3D rendering on mid-range and low-end smartphones. The results showcase the reliability and responsiveness of the pattern recognition as well as the potential of the 3D graphics engine to render and overlay complex 3D models balancing between visual quality and time. The proposed methodology is applied to the Ciborium of the church of St. Charalabos, located at St. Stephen’s Monastery in Meteora, Greece.
GEOMATICS DOCUMENTATION TECHNIQUES AS MONITORING TOOLS FOR RURAL BUILT HERITAGE IN NABÓN (ECUADOR)
Authors: Collado A. , Heras V. , Rodas P. , Delgado A. , Carrión C. , Mora-Navarro G. , Lerma J. L.
Published: August 2021

Abstract. Since 2008, the Ecuadorian Constitution gave all the rights and responsibilities to the municipalities to preserve and enhance their cultural and natural heritage. Despite the heritage richness of Nabón, historically has been considered as a poor and under development territory of the province and the country. Nevertheless, for small and rural territories like Nabón in Azuay's Province (Ecuador), the resources intended for cultural conservation are usually scarce and/or limited, and consequently it reduces the potential development of appropriate measures and preventive conservation. Because of this, the present cooperation project between international institutions aims to reverse this situation generating an appropriate working methodology with the collaboration of architects and geomatics engineers. The latter experts have been developing their profession in the field of heritage in recent times generating the geometric documentation of heritage and enhancing it by disseminating and visualizing it through geoportals and the use of mobile applications. All this geometric documentation, altogether with historical and cultural heritage information available will make it possible to monitor the existing heritage in the site, inasmuch as until now no official monitoring instrument has been established in this Ecuadorian province.
Evaluating high-frequency radar data assimilation impact in coastal ocean operational modelling

Published: August 2021

Abstract. The impact of the assimilation of HFR (high-frequency radar) observations in a high-resolution regional model is evaluated, focusing on the improvement of the mesoscale dynamics. The study area is the Ibiza Channel, located in the western Mediterranean Sea. The resulting fields are tested against trajectories from 13 drifters. Six different assimilation experiments are compared to a control run (no assimilation). The experiments consist of assimilating (i) sea surface temperature, sea level anomaly, and Argo profiles (generic observation dataset); the generic observation dataset plus (ii) HFR total velocities and (iii) HFR radial velocities. Moreover, for each dataset, two different initialization methods are assessed: (a) restarting directly from the analysis after the assimilation or (b) using an intermediate initialization step applying a strong nudging towards the analysis fields. The experiments assimilating generic observations plus HFR total velocities with the direct restart provide the best results, reducing by 53 % the average separation distance between drifters and virtual particles after the first 48 h of simulation in comparison to the control run. When using the nudging initialization step, the best results are found when assimilating HFR radial velocities with a reduction of the mean separation distance by around 48 %. Results show that the integration of HFR observations in the data assimilation system enhances the prediction of surface currents inside the area covered by both antennas, while not degrading the correction achieved thanks to the assimilation of generic data sources beyond it.
The assimilation of radial observations benefits from the smoothing effect associated with the application of the intermediate nudging step.
Soil organic matter and labile fractions depend on specific local parameter combinations
Authors: Ortner Malte , Seidel Michael , Semella Sebastian , Udelhoven Thomas , Vohland Michael , Thiele-Bruhn Sören
Published: August 2021

Abstract. Soil organic matter (SOM) is an indispensable component of terrestrial ecosystems. Soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics are influenced by a number of well-known abiotic factors such as clay content, soil pH or pedogenic oxides. These parameters interact with each other and vary in their influence on SOC depending on local conditions. To investigate the latter, the dependence of SOC accumulation on parameters and parameter combinations was statistically assessed that vary on a local scale depending on parent material, soil texture class and land use. To this end, topsoils were sampled from arable and grassland sites in southwestern Germany at four regions with different soil parent material. Principal component analysis (PCA) revealed a distinct clustering of data according to parent material and soil texture that varied largely between the local sampling regions, while land use explained PCA results only to a small extent. The obtained global and the different local clusters of the dataset were further analyzed for the relationships between SOC and mineral phase parameters in order to assess specific parameter combinations explaining SOC and its labile fractions. Analyses were focused on soil parameters that are known as possible predictors for the occurrence and stabilization of SOC (e.g. fine silt plus clay and pedogenic oxides). Regarding the global dataset, we found significant correlations between SOC and its labile fractions hot water-extractable C (HWEC) and microbial biomass C (MBC), respectively and the predictors, yet correlation coefficients were partially low. Mixed effect models were used to identify specific parameter combinations that significantly explain SOC and its labile fractions of the different clusters. Comparing measured and mixed effect models-predicted SOC values revealed acceptable to very good regression coefficients (R² = 0.41–0.91). Thereby, the predictors and predictor combinations clearly differed between models obtained for the whole data set and the different cluster groups. At a local scale site specific combinations of parameters explained the variability of organic matter notably better, while the application of global models to local clusters resulted in less sufficient performance. Independent from that, the overall explained variance generally decreased in the order SOC > HWEC > MBC, showing that labile fractions depend less on soil properties than on organic matter input and turnover in soil.

Abstract. The crystal orientation fabric (COF) of ice sheets records the past history of
ice sheet deformation and influences present-day ice flow dynamics. Though not
widely implemented, coherent ice-penetrating radar is able to detect bulk
anisotropic fabric patterns by exploiting the birefringence of ice crystals at
radar frequencies, with the assumption that one of the crystallographic axes
is aligned in the vertical direction. In this study, we conduct a suite of
quad-polarimetric measurements consisting of four orthogonal antenna
orientation combinations near the Western Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) Divide
ice core site. From these measurements, we are able to quantify the azimuthal
fabric asymmetry at this site to a depth of 1400 m at a
bulk-averaged resolution of up to 15 m. Our estimates of fabric
asymmetry closely match corresponding fabric estimates directly measured from
the WAIS Divide ice core. While ice core studies are often unable to determine
the absolute fabric orientation due to core rotation during extraction, we are
able to identify and conclude that the fabric orientation is depth-invariant
to at least 1400 m, equivalent to 6700 years BP (years before
1950) and aligns closely with the modern surface strain direction at WAIS
Divide. Our results support the claim that the deformation regime at WAIS
Divide has not changed substantially through the majority of the
Holocene. Rapid polarimetric determination of bulk fabric asymmetry and
orientation compares well with much more laborious sample-based COF
measurements from thin ice sections. Because it is the bulk-averaged fabric
that ultimately influences ice flow, polarimetric radar methods provide an
opportunity for its accurate and widespread mapping and its incorporation into
ice flow models.

Abstract. Basal melt of ice shelves is a key factor governing discharge of ice from the Antarctic Ice Sheet as a result of its effects on buttressing. Here, we use radio echo sounding to determine the spatial variability of the basal melt rate of the southern Filchner Ice Shelf, Antarctica along the inflow of Support Force Glacier. We find moderate melt rates with a maximum of 1.13 m a−1 about 50 km downstream of the grounding line. The variability of the melt rates over distances of a few kilometres is low (all but one < 0.15 m a−1 at < 2 km distance), indicating that measurements on coarse observational grids are able to yield a representative melt rate distribution. A comparison with remote sensing based melt rates revealed that, for the study area, large differences were due to inaccuracies in the estimation of vertical strain rates from remote sensing velocity fields. These inaccuracies can be overcome by using modern velocity fields.

An atherogenic diet induces oxidative stress leading to hypercholesterolemia. This condition causes atherosclerosis followed by increased LDL and MDA. Sorghum tempeh contains fiber and antioxidants that can protectively improve LDL and MDA levels. Therefore, this research aims to determine the effect of sorghum tempeh on LDL and MDA levels in atherogenic diet-induced rats compared to sorghum flour. It used a randomized pre-post test with a control group design. The test subjects were 30 male Sprague Dawley rats, consisting of 6 normal conditioned rats (C1), and 24 that were induced by an atherogenic diet (C2, T1, T2, T3) for 2 weeks. Sorghum flour was administered at a dose of 4.095 g (T1) and the sorghum tempeh at 3.041 g (T2) and 6.081 g (T3) for 4 weeks. Furthermore, C2 was constantly induced through an atherogenic diet. Total cholesterol and LDL levels were then analyzed using the CHOD-PAP method, and MDA levels, using the ELISA method. Meanwhile, statistical analysis for these variables was carried out using IBM SPSS Statistics 21 software. The results showed that the administration of sorghum flour and tempeh significantly reduced total cholesterol, LDL, MDA levels in each group (p = 0.001). Furthermore, it showed that there was a significantly strong correlation between LDL and MDA levels before and after treatment (r = 0.610, r = 0.805, and p = 0.001). The administration of sorghum tempeh at a dose of 6.081 g caused the greatest reduction (∆) in LDL levels at -44.19 ±2.58 mg.dL-1, although, it was not the same as normal control. Meanwhile, sorghum flour at a dose of 4.095 g was the most influential in reducing MDA levels to the same as normal control with delta (∆) at -7.67 ±0.37 ng.mL-1. In conclusion, sorghum tempeh and flour were the most effective at reducing LDL and MDA levels, respectively.
Perspective for change: establishing the need for clinical instructor competencies in physical therapist education
Authors: Bilyeu Catherine , Sharp Amanda , Myers Katherine
Published: August 2021

Current issue: Clinical instructors (CIs) are instrumental in the development of competent, entry-level physical therapist graduates. Despite this key role, CIs are often deficient in formal knowledge of the learning sciences that influence quality of clinical education experiences. Clinical education stakeholders also lack a standardized and consistent approach to defining and assessing clinical teaching skills, resulting in an inability to provide adequate feedback and growth opportunities for CIs.
Perspective: A gap exists between qualitative descriptions of clinical teaching behaviors and the ability to objectively assess those behaviors in CIs. Grounded in the Model of Excellence in Physical Therapist Education, this perspective calls attention to and proposes steps toward excellence in clinical education. Defining essential competencies of clinical teaching in the physical therapy profession requires a systematic approach. The competencies established through this approach then become the foundation for creating a meaningful assessment tool of CI performance.
Implications for clinical education: Developing educator competencies and a related assessment tool for CIs allows for the provision of meaningful feedback, the creation of targeted professional development programs, and opportunities for recognition of clinical teaching excellence. Without effective CIs, new graduates may be inadequately equipped to contribute to the profession’s vision of educational excellence.

Published: August 2021

Con el fin de formar investigadores de alto calibre que contribuyan al desarrollo científico del país, tres universidades colombianas se asociaron para ofrecer un programa de doctorado en ingeniería, que incluye tres áreas de investigación: automática, energía e informática. El programa ha sido aprobado por el Ministerio de Educación de Colombia para ser ofrecido en modalidad presencial. Para cumplir con el requisito de asistencia física, los estudiantes se desplazan al campus de la institución en la cual se encuentran inscritos. Sin embargo, cada curso es impartido, a través de un sistema de videoconferencia, por un profesor que puede estar ubicado en cualquiera de las tres universidades asociadas. Debido a la crisis sanitaria provocada por la pandemia de COVID-19, ni estudiantes ni profesores han podido estar físicamente presentes en las aulas de telepresencia y se han visto obligados a realizar sus cursos totalmente a distancia. Esta nueva realidad ha sido el catalizador para que las autoridades universitarias quieran transformar la modalidad en la cual se imparte el programa. En esta entrevista, tres profesores presentan sus puntos de vista sobre esta transformación.
