A Tailored App for the Self-management of Musculoskeletal Conditions: Evidencing a Logic Model of Behavior Change
Authors: Berry Alice , McClellan Carey , Wanless Ben , Walsh Nicola
Published: January 2022

Background

Musculoskeletal conditions such as joint pain are a growing problem, affecting 18.8 million people in the United Kingdom. Digital health interventions (DHIs) are a potentially effective way of delivering information and supporting self-management. It is vital that the development of such interventions is transparent and can illustrate how individual components work, how they link back to the theoretical constructs they are attempting to change, and how this might influence outcomes. getUBetter is a DHI developed to address the lack of personalized, supported self-management tools available to patients with musculoskeletal conditions by providing knowledge, skills, and confidence to navigate through a self-management journey.

Objective

The aim of this study was to map a logic model of behavior change for getUBetter to illustrate how the content and functionality of the DHI are aligned with recognized behavioral theory, effective behavior change techniques, and clinical guidelines.

Methods

A range of behavior change models and frameworks were used, including the behavior change wheel and persuasive systems design framework, to map the logic model of behavior change underpinning getUBetter. The three main stages included understanding the behavior the intervention is attempting to change, identifying which elements of the intervention might bring about the desired change in behavior, and describing intervention content and how this can be optimally implemented.

Results

The content was mapped to 25 behavior change techniques, including information about health consequences, instruction on how to perform a behavior, reducing negative emotions, and verbal persuasion about capability. Mapping to the persuasive system design framework illustrated the use of a number of persuasive design principles, including tailoring, personalization, simulation, and reminders.

Conclusions

This process enabled the proposed mechanisms of action and theoretical foundations of getUBetter to be comprehensively described, highlighting the key techniques used to support patients to self-manage their condition. These findings provide guidance for the ongoing evaluation of the effectiveness (including quality of engagement) of the intervention and highlight areas that might be strengthened in future iterations.
The Behavior Change Techniques Used in Canadian Online Smoking Cessation Programs: Content Analysis
Authors: Struik Laura , Rodberg Danielle , Sharma Ramona H
Published: January 2022

Background

Smoking rates in Canada remain unacceptably high, and cessation rates have stalled in recent years. Online cessation programs, touted for their ability to reach many different populations anytime, have shown promise in their efficacy. The Government of Canada has therefore funded provincial and national smoking cessation websites countrywide. However, little is known about the behavior change techniques (BCTs) that underpin the content of these websites, which is key to establishing the quality of the websites, as well as a way forward for evaluation.

Objective

The purpose of this study, therefore, is to apply the BCTTv1 taxonomy to Canadian provincial and federal websites, and to determine which BCTs they use.

Methods

A total of 12 government-funded websites across Canada were included for analysis. Using deductive content analysis and through training in applying the BCTTv1 taxonomy, the website content was coded according to the 93 BCTs across the 16 BCT categories.

Results

Of the 16 BCT categories, 14 were present within the websites. The most widely represented BCT categories (used in all 12 websites) included goals and planning, social support, natural consequences, and regulation. Implementation of BCTs within these categories varied across the sites.

Conclusions

Analyzing the content of online smoking cessation websites using the BCTTv1 taxonomy is an appropriate method for identifying the behavior change content of these programs. The findings offer programmers and researchers tangible directions for prioritizing and enhancing provincial and national smoking cessation programs, and an evaluation framework to assess smoking cessation outcomes in relation to the web-based content.

Authors: Rossi Silvia , Santini Silvano Junior , Di Genova Daniela , Maggi Gianpaolo , Verrotti Alberto , Farello Giovanni , Romualdi Roberta , Alisi Anna , Tozzi Alberto Eugenio , Balsano Clara
Published: January 2022

BACKGROUND

Social robots (SRs) have been used for improving anxiety in children in stressful clinical situations, such as during painful procedures. However, no studies have yet been performed to assess their effect in children while waiting for emergency room consultations.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to assess the impact of SRs on managing stress in children waiting for an emergency room procedure through the assessment of salivary cortisol levels.

METHODS

This was an open randomized clinical trial in children attending a pediatric emergency department. Children accessing the emergency room were randomized to 1 of 3 groups: (1) playing with a NAO SR, (2) playing with a study nurse, or (3) waiting with parents. The salivary cortisol levels of all children were measured through a swab. Salivary cortisol levels before and after the intervention were compared in the 3 groups. We calculated the effect size of our interventions through the Cohen d-based effect size correlation (r).

RESULTS

A total of 109 children aged 3-10 years were enrolled in the study, and 94 (86.2%) had complete data for the analyses. Salivary cortisol levels significantly decreased more in the group exposed to robot interaction than in the other two groups (r=0.75). Cortisol levels decreased more in girls (r=0.92) than in boys (r=0.57).

CONCLUSIONS

SRs are efficacious in decreasing stress in children accessing the emergency room and may be considered a tool for improving emotional perceptions of children and their families in such a critical setting.

Prioritizing Attention over Privacy: Analysis of Face Image Posting Behavior in Online Direct-to-Consumer Genetic Testing Forum (Preprint)
Authors: Liu Yongtai , Yin Zhijun , Wan Zhiyu , Yan Chao , Xia Weiyi , Ni Congning , Clayton Ellen Wright , Vorobeychik Yevgeniy , Kantarcioglu Murat , Malin Bradley A.
Published: January 2022

BACKGROUND

As direct-to-consumer genetic testing (DTC-GT) services have grown in popularity, the public has increasingly relied upon online forums to discuss and share their test results. Initially, users did so under a pseudonym, but more recently, they have included face images when discussing DTC-GT results. When these images truthfully represent a user, they reveal the identity of the corresponding individual. Various studies have shown that sharing images in social media tends to elicit more replies. However, users who do this clearly forgo their privacy.

OBJECTIVE

This study aimed to investigate the face image sharing behavior of DTC-GT users in an online environment and determine if there exists the association between face image sharing and the attention received from others.

METHODS

This study focused on r/23andme, a subreddit dedicated to discussing DTC-GT results and their implications. We applied natural language processing to infer the themes associated with posts that included a face image. We applied a regression analysis to learn the association between the attention that a post received, in terms of the number of comments and karma scores (defined as the number of upvotes minus the number of downvotes), and whether the post contains a face image.

RESULTS

We collected over 15,000 posts from the r/23andme subreddit published between 2012 and 2020. Face image posting began in late 2019 and grew rapidly, with over 800 individuals’ revealing their faces by early 2020. The topics in posts including a face were primarily about sharing or discussing ancestry composition, and sharing family reunion photos with relatives discovered via DTC-GT. On average, posts including a face received 60% (5/8) more comments than other posts, and these posts had karma scores 2.4 times higher than other posts.

CONCLUSIONS

DTC-GT consumers in the r/23andme subreddit are increasingly posting face images and testing reports on social platforms. The association between face image posting and a greater level of attention suggests that people are forgoing their privacy in exchange for attention from others. To mitigate the risk of face image posting, platforms, or at least subreddit organizers, should inform users about the consequence of such behavior for identity disclosure.

Authors: Almashaykhi Ahmed Obaid , M Nooh Randa , Almudarra Sami Said , ALMutari Abdulaziz Saad , ALBudayri Naif Saud , AlGhamdi Khalid Masoud , Aldarwish Ali
Published: January 2022

BACKGROUND

Annually, in the month of Dhul hijjah, over 2 million Muslims travel to Saudi Arabia to perform hajj. Hajj is the biggest mass gathering globally, which creates a substantial influence on hajjes’ health. The Omani medical mission is the official delegation from the Omani government to Saudi Arabia to serve the Omani hajjees regarding their health issues.

OBJECTIVE

This study investigates the referral rate and pattern of diseases among hajjees referred by the Omani medical mission during Hajj 1440 H.

METHODS

We conducted a cross-sectional study at the Omani Medical missions in Makkah, Madinah, Mina, and Arafat. Data was collected via a predesigned form. All Omani pilgrims presenting to the mission who were referred to local hospitals were included.

RESULTS

The total number of cases was 5000, of which 106 (2.1%) were referred to local hospitals (21.2 per 1000 hajjees). The most common causes of referral were cardiovascular diseases (23.6%), followed by gastrointestinal disease (17.9%) and trauma (16.9%). Male patients comprised 60.1% of the sample. Their mean age was 47.3 (SD 11.27) years, with the highest referrals in the 51-60 years age group (30%). Over half (55.7%) had comorbidities. Patients’ mean time to reach the clinic was 8.87 (SD 6.41) minutes, with 65% arriving in 5 minutes or less. The mean time needed to reach the hospital by ambulance was 11.39 (SD 6.6) minutes, with 36% arriving within 5 minutes. Of the referrals, 42% were admitted into the hospital. Hospitalization was significantly higher among patients with chest pain (P<.006), diabetics (P<.001), and patients with heart disease (P=.01).

CONCLUSIONS

The most common causes for referral of hajjees from the Omani Medical Mission were cardiovascular diseases, gastrointestinal disease, and trauma. This information should assist the Omani government in planning their medical services in the hajj season in future years.
The Engineering Characteristics and Classifications of Rock Masses along Road Section from Prambanan to Patuk, Yogyakarta, Indonesia
Authors: Juhari Aisyah Shahirah , Indrawan, Dr. I Gde Budi , Wilopo Wahyu
Published: January 2022

Several attraction places and agriculture area that essentials for tourism and villager to do their activities are located approximately 6 km along the road of Candi Ijo to Ngoro-Oro in between Prambanan and Patuk sub-districts, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Many jointed rock masses along the road have the potential to fail. This paper describes the rock mass characteristic and quality determined using the Geological Strength Index (GSI) and Rock Mass Rating (RMR) classifications. The rock mass characteristic and quality were essentially the preliminary results of a study to evaluate stability of the rock slopes along the road of Candi Ijo to Ngoro-Oro. Field observation and laboratory tests were carried out to determine parameters of the GSI and RMR.  The results show that the slopes in the study area consisted of tuffaceous sandstone, vitric tuff, lithic tuff, cemented tuffaceous sandstone, lapilli tuff, subarkose, laminated mudrock, and laminated tuffaceous sandstone. The intact rocks were classified as weak to very strong. The research area consisted of three rock mass qualities, namely fair rock mass quality having GSI between 30 and 45 and RMR between 41 and 60,  good rock mass quality having GSI between 46 to 65 and RMR between 61 and 80, and very good rock mass quality having GSI > 65 and RMR between 81-100. The relationship between GSI and RMR obtained in this study was in good agreement with that proposed by Hoek et al. (1995).
Evaluating the Implications of Lineaments on Petroleum Fields: South Sumatra, Indonesia
Authors: Ngoroyemoto Tapiwa Frank Kwachara
Published: January 2022

Declining oil prices has led to a reduction of petroleum exploration as oil production as no longer a lucrative area of investment as in the previous years. Current exploration activities are supported by field work which are intensive considering the resources required. There is need to develop low cost methods to delineate areas of potential hydrocarbon resources. This research uses Land Satellite (Landsat) 8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) for alteration extraction, Shutter Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) for lineament extraction, Geological maps to develop a low cost method of petroleum exploration. The results indicate high OH bearing alterations on the Gumai and Kasai formation, a seal rock. Extensional tectonics is responsible for the migration of petroleum from the subsurface.  It is suggested that future exploration be concentrated on the Gumai and Kasai formation based on evidence of micro seepage.

Authors: Arrisaldi Thema , Wilopo Wahyu , Fathani Teuku Faisal
Published: January 2022

Landslide often occurred in Tinalah watershed, Kulon Progo District, every year. The frequency of landslide events is increasing after high rainfall intensity. Some factors control landslides such as slope gradient, land use, geological structure, slope hydrology, and geological condition. This research has an objective to develop the susceptibility map of Tinalah watershed and to identify the rainfall threshold to trigger a landslide. The development of the susceptibility map using frequency ratio method with four parameters including slope, type of rock, land use, and lineament density. The landslide data were collected during the field survey and from regional disaster management authority (BPBD) Kulon Progo. Rainfall data were collected from BMKG and GSMap. Soil analysis also was conducted to develop a numerical model to verify the rainfall threshold value. The result shows a high susceptibility of the landslide area is dominated in Tinalah watershed. The rainfall threshold for the low susceptibility of the landslide zone is I=490.14 D-1.404with 5-7 days antecedent rain. The rainfall threshold for medium susceptibility map is I=164.32D-0,689 3-7 days antecedent rain. Moreover, the rainfall threshold for the high susceptibility of the landslide zone is 111.62 D-0.779, with 2-7 days antecedent rain.
CHALLENGES TO THE SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES AND THE UNITED KINGDOM THROUGH THE PRISM OF THE ACTIONS OF PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN AND PRIME MINISTER BORIS JOHNSON
Authors: Ptaszynska Zuzanna
Published: January 2022

The United States and the United Kingdom have special political, economic, military and cultural relations. The new American administration is restoring priority to multilateralism and old alliances, and the British authorities have announced an expansion of international engagement. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the fight against climate change, the growth of China’s influence, and threats to cybersecurity are the biggest international challenges in the view of both states. The US and the UK urge other states to jointly take responsibility and work out solutions to the world’s most crucial problems. The United Kingdom left the European Union in January 2020 and, in line with the rhetoric of the government, it regained a sovereign foreign policy. US-UK relations could deepen but new troubles appeared, for example the need to negotiate a new trade deal. However, the differences between Joe Biden and Boris Johnson are less important in the face of common interests, as evidenced by the signing of a new Atlantic Charter by both leaders in June 2021 or increasing joint engagement in the Indo-Pacific region.
ULOGA TEODORA PL. MILUTINOVIĆA VIŠNJEGORSKOG I KRAJIŠKIH SRBA U OSLOBAĐANJU DALMACIJE, DUBROVNIKA I BOKE KOTORSKE OD NAPOLEONOVE VOJSKE
Authors: Krsic Dario
Published: January 2022

Cilj ovog rada je da se analizom sadržaja odgovarajuće literature skrene pažnja naučnoj javnosti na istorijski značaj ratovodstvenih poduhvata Teodora pl. Milutinovića Višnjegorskog i krajiških Srba, koji su služili u Carsko-kraljevskoj vojsci u bitkama protiv Velike armije na području Dalmacije, Dubrovnika i Boke Kotorske 1813. i 1814. godine. Ističu se, kao i u prethodnom broju „Političke revije“, njihove vojničke vrline i veština ratovanja tokom oslobađanja Ilirskih provincija. U radu se posmatraju i srpsko-francuski odnosi tokom Napoleonovih ratova, a ukratko i ratni put krajišnika koji su služili kao oficiri i vojnici u Velikoj armiji. Takođe, promišlja se i o političkim i etnografskim konsekvencama ratovanja Teodora pl. Milutinovića Višnjegorskog i njegovih jedinica na posmatranom području, koje su oblikovale međe Austrijskog Carstva na krajnjem jugu monarhije, a sticajem istorijskih okolnosti i savremenih granica Republike Hrvatske.
NOVA ERA EVROPSKOG ISTRAŽIVAČKOG PROSTORA? KA NAUCI ZASNOVANOJ NA JAVNIM VREDNOSTIMA
Authors: Rogač Mijatović Ljiljana
Published: January 2022

U tekstu se razmatra kako se kroz nedavni razvoj evropskog istraživačkog prostora oblikuju novi vrednosni okviri i perspektive diskursa javne naučne politike. U osnovi poduhvata za analizu diskursa javnih naučnih politika je izazov koji se tiče procenjivanja nenaučnih, neekonomskih ciljeva, odnosno onoga što obuhvata okvir javnih vrednosti. Ovaj rad se stoga ne bavi toliko samim praksama naučnih istraživanja i funkcionisanja evropskog istraživačkog prostora, već više analizom načina na koji su postavljeni ključni pristupi, principi i vrednosti kojima je on pozicioniran u dokumentima naučne politike EU. Analiza dokumenata ukazuje na načine na koji su problemi evropske naučne politike izraženi u diskursima, odnosno u konceptualnim okvirima koji definišu polje javnih politika u oblasti naučnih istraživanja i inovacija poput “društva znanja”, ”nauke za društvo i sa društvom”, “odgovornog istraživanja i inovacija”, “otvorene nauke”, itd. Suštinski, reč je o istraživačkoj kulturi, tj. vrednostima i normama koje podupiru sistem naučnog istraživanja, a koje se tiču svih aspekata istraživanja, karijera istraživača, kao i pozicije samog naučnog sektora u evropskom naučnom „ekosistemu“. Semantičkom “igrom” akronima ERA (European research area) u radu se preispituje da li nove naučne politike najavljuju novu eru, odnosno novi početak za Evropski istraživački prostor, i u kojoj meri će na tom putu opstati javne vrednosti nauke, odnosno nauka kao javno dobro.
ODNOS IZMEĐU SJEDINЈENIH AMERIČKIH DRŽAVA I TURSKE: IZMEĐU PRIVIDNOG PRIJATELЈSTVA I PRIKRIVENOG ANIMOZITETA
Authors: Stojadinovic Misa
Published: January 2022

Savez između Sjedinjenih Američkih Država i Turske koji je uspostavljen za vreme Hladnog rata se u decenijama koje su usledile posle ovog velikog globalnog sukoba našao pred mnogobrojnim izazovima. Naročito je interesantno posmatrati ovaj savez sa aspekta Sjedinjenih Američkih Država, kao neoimperijalnog hegemona čija se snaga nalazi u opadanju, i Turske, na čije se jačanje i širenje uticaja s pravom gleda kao na rađanja neoosmanizma. Dok je za vreme trajanja Hladnog rata ovaj savez bio relativno pouzdan takva situacija se kasnije u značajnoj meri promenila. Od odnosa u kome su obe strane znale šta da očekuju jedne od druge došlo se do odnosa u kome je počeo jačati prikriveni animozitet. Imajući u vidu da se rad bavi veoma kompleksnim geopolitičkim fenomenom korišćenje geopolitičkog metoda postaje izuzetno značajno. Ovaj metod je naročito značajan jer omogućava sagledavanje uzročno-posledične veze geografskog i političkog sa stanovišta različitih interesa u kontekstu međunarodnih odnosa. Kako geopolitički problemi predstavljaju višedimenzionalne fenomene primena analize i sinteze kao opštih naučnih metoda je svakako nezaobilazna. U radu su, takođe, korišćeni analiza sadržaja, istorijski, geografski i komparativni metod.
POSLEDICE IZMENA ZAKONSKOG IZBORNOG PRAGA NA PREDSTAVLJENOST STRANAKA NACIONALNIH MANJINA – LOKALNI IZBORI U SRBIJI 2020. GODINE
Authors: Jovanovic Milan , Perisic Nikola
Published: January 2022

Zakonski izborni prag od 5% važećih glasova funkcionisao je u izbornom sistemu Srbije faktički dve decenije. Od 2004. godine on nije primenjivan na izborne liste stranaka nacionalnih manjina. U jednom ciklusu lokalnih izbora, 2004. godine, bio je smanjen na 3%. Pred parlamentarne, lokalne i pokrajinske izbore 2020. godine u kontekstu pregovora vlasti i opozicije o uslovima za slobodne i pravedne izbore, jednostranom odlukom vlasti, zakonski izborni prag na svim nivoima smanjen je na 3%. Da bi se očuvao broj predstavnika stranaka nacionalnih manjina zakon je uveo bonus – količnici stranaka nacionalnih manjina prilikom pretvaranja glasova u mandate metodom najvećeg količnika uvećavaju se za 35%. Veća reprezentativnost predstavničkih tela, osnovni je argument kojim se pravdala ova velika izborna reforma. Stvarni motiv ovog izbornog inženjeringa je slabljenje najavljenog bojkota izbora od strane opozicije. Upozoravano je da je ovakvo rešenje suprotno ustavnim načelima o jednakosti biračkog prava i zabrani diskriminacije, da potencijalno može voditi fragmentaciji stranačkog sistema i dovesti do situacija da neka stranka koja je prešla izborni prag ostane bez predstavnika. Autentičnim tumačenjem zakona objašnjeno je da će se bonus primenjivati samo u slučaju da stranke nacionalnih manjina ne pređu zakonski izborni prag, ali samo za lokalne izbore. Rad analizira političke konsekvence snižavanja izbornog praga na lokalnim izborima u kontekstu proklamovanih ciljeva. Podaci pokazuju da nije došlo do rasta broja stranaka nacionalnih manjina na izborima. Stranke nacionalnih manjina po pravilu su osvajale veći broj mesta u lokalnim skupštinama. To je posebno izraženo kod Saveza Vojvođanskih Mađara kao dominantne stranke ove nacionalne manjine. U korpusu Bošnjaka i Albanaca gde postoji izraženija stranačka kompeticija taj rast je manji. Stranke malobrojnijih nacionalnih manjina dejstvom ovog mehanizma postale su vidljivije u lokalnim skupštinama. Da nije primenjeno autentično tumačenje broj poslanika stranaka nacionalnih manjina uvećao bi se dodatno i u pojedinim sredinama menjao bi odnos snaga u formiranju većine u lokalnim parlamentima. Zbog bojkota izbora i pandemije koji su uzrokovali manju izlaznost na izbore puno dejstvo novog mehanizma u izbornom sistemu ostalo je prigušeno. Političke posledice biće vidljivije i jasnije posle narednog izbornog ciklusa kada akteri bolje analiziraju njegove potencijale.

Authors: Dextre-Vilchez Sergio Armando , Vásquez-Mercado Rocío Paola
Published: January 2022

Introducción: En el contexto pandémico actual se ha necesitado implementar herramientas virtuales en la educación médica como la gamificación. Esta es posible mediante la app Quizizz, que permite realizar cuestionarios de manera didáctica con el fin de mejorar el aprendizaje.Objetivo: Determinar la percepción de la implementación de la app Quizizz en un curso virtual de microbiología en estudiantes de medicina. Método: Estudio descriptivo de corte transversal. Se realizó un curso virtual de microbiología para estudiantes de medicina, dividido en cuatro capítulos. Al final de cada uno de dichos bloques, se utilizó la app Quizizz con 12 preguntas sobre el tema desarrollado. En el último capítulo se aplicó un cuestionario a cada participante, de manera individual, con preguntas sociodemográficas, académicas y una sección final sobre su percepción de la implementación de la app Quizizz.Resultados: Un total de 89 individuos aceptaron contestar la encuesta.  los participantes provenían de nueve países latinoamericanos y 62.9% pertenecían al sexo femenino. El 78.7% de ellos tenía experiencia previa con aplicaciones de este tipo, un 94.4% estuvo de acuerdo con la implementación de la app Quizizz en asignaturas de la carrera, y un 96.6% cree que le ayudó a fijar los contenidos del curso. Además, puntuaron con un 8.5 sobre 10 su experiencia final con esta aplicación. Finalmente, en cuanto a las calificaciones obtenidas, se tuvo una precisión total de las cuatro partidas del 47.2%. Conclusiones: Con base en los resultados obtenidos, se concluye que los estudiantes de medicina son receptivos a estos tipos de aplicaciones. A pesar de ello, no se llegó al nivel de acierto deseado. Por lo que recomendamos que es importante considerar si su implementación vale la inversión de tiempo y esfuerzo o si solo es percibido como un tiempo lúdico.

Diferencia entre dos modalidades de materiales educativos para un curso en línea
Authors: Yépez Ramírez Daniel , Montealegre Ramírez Priscila Angélica
Published: January 2022

Introducción: La implementación de un curso en modalidad en línea requiere conexión a internet y las condiciones técnicas adecuadas. Acercar un curso con fines de actualización, en esta modalidad, al personal de la salud, el cual por ubicación geográfica no tiene acceso a la red, demanda a los educadores realizar adaptaciones al marco instruccional a fin de lograr una implementación exitosa.Objetivo: Describir el desenlace de un curso en línea implementado bajo dos modalidades en cuanto a la disposición del material educativo en un sistema de gestión de aprendizaje en línea.Método: Estudio con diseño descriptivo transversal, que se llevó a cabo de septiembre a noviembre de 2019, periodo en el que se implementó un curso en línea en un sistema de gestión del aprendizaje de código abierto, utilizando dos modalidades de diseño del material educativo, una totalmente en línea y la otra con los materiales descargables. Participaron 3,717 trabajadores de la salud de una institución pública de salud en México. Para el análisis de los datos se utilizó estadística descriptiva mediante el programa Excel 2010.Resultados: Del total de la muestra, 64% fueron mujeres, la eficiencia terminal en la versión en línea fue de 43.9%, mientras del grupo con materiales descargables fue de 41.4%. De los alumnos que no aprobaron, más de dos terceras partes no ingresaron a la plataforma educativa. En cuanto a la satisfacción, las esferas más afectadas fueron los aspectos técnicos (en la plataforma) y falta de tiempo para la lectura del material. Conclusión: La modalidad con la que se presenta el material educativo en un curso en línea, el tiempo necesario para su lectura y la claridad de las instrucciones dentro de la plataforma educativa son determinantes para una mejor eficiencia terminal. Es significativo el rol del tutor en línea para el acompañamiento a los participantes, a fin de promover la culminación del curso. Se requiere mejorar el instrumento para evaluar la satisfacción del alumnado, así como reforzar las vías de difusión y concientización de la importancia que tiene la  actualización en el personal de salud para el ejercicio profesional.
Combination of Morphology, Wavelet and Convex Hull Features in Classification of Patchouli Varieties with Imbalance Data using Artificial Neural Network
Authors: Mahmudy Wayan Firdaus , Dewi Candra , Arifando Rio , Ahmadie Beryl Labique , Rahman Muh Arif
Published: January 2022

Patchouli plants are main raw materials for essential oils in Indonesia. Patchouli leaves have a very varied physical form based on the area planted, making it difficult to recognize the variety. This condition makes it difficult for farmers to recognize these varieties and they need experts’ advice. As there are few experts in this field, a technology for identifying the types of patchouli varieties is required. In this study, the identification model is constructed using a combination of leaf morphological features, texture features extracted with Wavelet and shape features extracted with convex hull. The results of feature extraction are used as input data for training of classification algorithms. The effectiveness of the input features is tested using three classification methods in class artificial neural network algorithms: (1) feedforward neural networks with backpropagation algorithm for training, (2) learning vector quantization (LVQ), (3) extreme learning machine (ELM). Synthetic minority over-sampling technique (SMOTE) is applied to solve the problem of class imbalance in the patchouli variety dataset. The results of the patchouli variety identification system by combining these three features indicate the level of recognition with an average accuracy of 72.61%, accuracy with the combination of these three features is higher when compared to using only morphological features (58.68%) or using only Wavelet features (59.03 %) or both (67.25%). In this study also showed that the use of SMOTE in imbalance data increases the accuracy with the highest average accuracy of 88.56%.
Mineral lithotype identification on the andrill AND-2A drillcore, antarctica by using ternary mineral rock physics templates built from a self-consistent approach
Authors: Meléndez Martínez Jaime , Nicolás López Rubén , Valdiviezo Oscar C
Published: January 2022

In this work, wet bulk density ?WBD and compressional wave velocity VP core log data obtained along the AND-2A drillcore are plotted on density-velocity ternary mineral Rock Physics Templates (RPTs) built from a Self-Consistent (SC) micromechanics modelling with the purpose to deter- mine data trends that allow us to assist in identifying mineral lithotypes and lithological features throughout the 1138 m length of the drillcore. The elastic properties of the three dominant miner- als present in the drillcore (mixed clays, quartz, and calcite) and the pore-filling fluid (brine) were used as input data for the SC model. The interpreted lithology is then compared to that obtained from the analysis of the AND-2A drillcore ?WBD and VP log data using Gardner type density-velocity cross plots. Results from both the SC and Gardner methods are in good agreement with the main lithologies present in the AND-2A drillcore already reported in the scientific literature. Our findings also agree well when compared to the lithological description of six selected rock samples obtained at different depths on the AND-2A drillcore. These results suggest that the proposed SC approach could be helpful to assist to identify lithology in scientific drill holes where downhole elastic proper- ties may exist over intervals where portions of the drillcore were not recovered. Furthermore, even when elastic property data sets come from measurements on cores, the SC approach is likewise useful because, from visual analysis alone, lithology can sometimes be difficult to determine, and additional information from the analysis of the elastic properties may provide more insight.

Published: January 2022

A general family of distributions, namely Kumaraswamy generalized family of (Kw-G) distribution, is considered for estimation of the unknown parameters and reliability function based on record data from Kw-G distribution. The maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs) are derived for unknown parameters and reliability function, along with its confidence intervals. A Bayesian study is carried out under symmetric and asymmetric loss functions in order to find the Bayes estimators for unknown parameters and reliability function. Future record values are predicted using Bayesian approach and non Bayesian approach, based on numerical examples and a monte carlo simulation.
Verification of Percentage Depth-Doses with Monte Carlo Simulation and Calculation of Mass Attenuation Coefficients for Various Patient Tissues in Radiation Therapy
Authors: ÖZSEVEN Alper , KARA Ümit
Published: January 2022

Objective: First part of this work dedicated to the verification of the percentage depth dose curves that obtained experimentally for 6 MV and 18 MV x-ray photon beams via using Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation. Second part of this study compared the computed mass attenuation coefficients of various human tissues and water between MATLAB and XCOM.
Material-Methods: The central-axis percentage depth doses of Varian Clinac IX linear accelerator were verified via Monte Carlo simulation (Geant4) with square field sizes (10x10 and 30x30 cm2) for 6 MV and 18 MV x-ray photon energies. In addition, mass attenuation coefficients of adipose tissue, blood, muscle, bone, skin and water were computed with MATLAB and were compared with the NIST XCOM data.
Results: Results of the Geant4 modeling were in line with the experimental measurements for percentage depth dose curves. The consistency of Geant4 with experimental results was more explicit for 6 MV photons with the field size of 10x10 cm2. No statistical significant difference between MATLAB and XCOM were found for all mentioned human tissues, except for bone (p=0.039 for bone in both genders). The minimum median percentage difference were calculated for water and skin with a result of 1.23% and 2.19%, respectively.
Conclusion: Geant4 can be used to predict percentage depth dose curves for medical linacs. Mass attenuation coefficients calculated with MATLAB yielded consistent results with previous studies, which means MATLAB can be used as an alternative simulation tool for estimating mass attenuation coefficients of various human tissues and water.

Non-University Mass Student Public Associations: Institutional Isomorphism as a Factor of Stability
Authors: Kashina M. A. , Popov V. R.
Published: January 2022

The relevance of this research is about the need to search for factors that increase the stability of youth associations, including student ones. Only stable youth associations can effectively socialize young people and form them as active actors in civil society. The project is a desk study and has a quality design.

Object: non-university mass student public associations. They were created in Russia in the 60s of the twentieth century: student building brigades (SSO) and student nature protective brigades (DOP). Subject: institutional isomorphism of non-university student public associations. Purpose: to assess the impact of character and the degree of isomorphism of student public associations on their stability.

Research results. It is shown that the main factor in the stability of student public associations is the level of their compliance with institutional requirements. It leads to forced isomorphism. The cause of this isomorphism is the monopoly of sources of support for the activities of these associations. In Russia, the state has such a monopoly. Student associations must take into account the institutional factors, in particular the requirements of higher-level systems and institutions. It gives them the necessary resources to continue their activities. Intra-organizational factors (level of social significance, charisma of leaders, mass character, and others) are less important for ensuring their sustainability.

Published: January 2022

The smart city systems development connected to the Internet of Things (IoT) has been the goal of several works in the multi-agent system field. Nevertheless, just a few projects demonstrate how to deploy and make the connection among the employed systems. This paper proposes an approach towards the integration of a MAS through the JaCaMo framework plus an Urban Simulation Tool (SUMO), IoT applications (Node-RED, InfluxDB, and Grafana), and an IoT platform (Konker). The integration presented in this paper applies in a Smart Parking scenario with real features, where is shown the integration and the connection through all layers, from agent level to artifacts, including real environment and simulation, as well as IoT applications. In future works, we intend to establish a methodology that shows how to properly integrate these different applications regardless of the scenario and the used tools.
