Chemotherapy can cause neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. Blood counts are at their lowest 7-10 days after treatment; when the risk of infection is highest. The duration of low blood cell counts depends on the intensity of the treatment. Prior to invasive procedures, the hospital unit treating the cancer patient should be contacted for consultation about appropriate timing of the procedure and whether the patient''s medication should be modified. The oral wound, e.g. after tooth extraction, should be healed before cancer treatment is continued.

Before the onset of radiotherapy for head and neck region, patients are given guidance on preventive care and risk factors as part of specialised care, however, individual treatment plan is implemented within primary care. Reasons for specialised consultations include tooth extractions following radiotherapy, uncontrolled caries progression and infections, problems associated with soft tissue or osteoradionecrosis as well as problems with prosthetic rehabilitation.
I gode og onde dager
Authors: Dyvi Ellen Beate
Published: September 2022

Det ble overtidsdrama de luxe. Nok en gang.

For den som ikke vet det: Søndag 13. mai kjempet City og United om å vinne serien - i hver sin kamp. Fire ganger skiftet ligaledelsen mellom City og United på sesongens siste dag.

Manchester City spilte hjemme mot Queens Park Rangers. Da Uniteds bortekamp mot Sunderland var over, med 1-0-seier til United, var United-fansen sikre på seier.

Etter 90 minutter lå City under i sin kamp, nemlig - og de trengte ikke bare ett, men to mål.

Så skjer det:

Først Edin Dzeko. Ett minutt på overtid headet han inn det første av de to målene City trengte på en corner. Da Uniteds kamp var ferdig, manglet City fortsatt ett mål.

Det kom! - nesten fire minutter på overtid:

Plutselig var Sergio Agüero alene med Kenny. Han skjøt, skåret, og sendte City-fansen til den lyseblå ligagullhimmelen de ikke har vært i siden 1968. Klokken 17.56 blåste dommeren av. City vant 3-2, City vant serien!
Uligheder i oral sundhed – teoretisk tilgang
Authors: Petersen Poul Erik , Hakeberg Magnus
Published: September 2022

Main topics

The oral health impact of social determinants affecting all population groups is known universally.

Variations exist by income, education, occupation, ethnic minority groups, environmental conditions, gender, families and children, and generations spanning from children to older people.

Inequality in oral health tends to last from early childhood to older age.

Social diversities in oral health and general health are comparable due to shared causal mechanisms.

The financial burden related to use of private dental health services plays a powerful role in creation of inequality.

Structural, psychosocial and political determinants are drivers in creation of inequalities.

WHO give emphasis to intervention against social determinants in health; inequalities in health are unfair and can be reduced by the right mix of government policies.
Sociale og samfundsmæssige implikationer af tandtab og temporo-mandibulær smerte og rehabilitering
Authors: Øzhayat Esben Boeskov , Ekberg EwaCarin
Published: September 2022

Klinisk relevans

Det er vigtigt for klinikere at forstå, hvordan tandtab og TMD-smerte påvirker patienternes livskvalitet, og hvilke sociale og samfundsmæssige konsekvenser dette medfører. Det er ligeledes vigtigt at vide, hvornår og hvordan rehabilitering af de to tilstande kan forbedre patienternes liv, og hvilke fordele dette kan indebære for samfundet. Kendskab til disse forhold vil hjælpe klinikeren til i højere grad at tage patientens ønsker i betragtning ved behandlingsplanlægningen og forstå, hvordan behandling kan hjælpe samfundet.

Published: September 2022

Hovedbudskap

Det finnes gode intense søtstoff til bruk som sukkererstatninger i alle typer matvarekategorier og produkter hvor søtstoff anvendes, og flere egner seg til matlaging ved høye temperaturer.

Intense søtstoff er ikke-kariogene, øker ikke blodsukkeret og er i praksis kalorifrie.

I kombinasjon brukes det svært små mengder av intense søtstoff fordi de ofte forsterker hverandres søtningsgrad (synergieffekt), og slike kombinasjoner gir også en forbedret søtsmak.

Kunnskapsgrunnlaget vi har i dag er ikke tilstrekkelig til å kunne besvare hvorvidt bruk av intense søtstoff kan påvirke kroppsvekt over tid.

Det er trygt å bruke intense søtstoff innenfor de vedtatte verdier for akseptabelt daglig inntak.

Acesso irrestrito e monitorável a leis e regulamentações é pressuposto essencial da democracia. Isso permite, por exemplo, a detecção de ilícitos e o monitoramento de fraudes em ações públicas (e.g., licitações). Contudo, cada ente federado segue seus próprios critérios de padronização de modelos e formato na disponibilização dessas informações, por exemplo, nos diários oficiais municipais, estaduais e da União. Nesse contexto, nosso objetivo é minimizar o esforço para lidar com a extração textual desses dados ao propor uma heurística orientada à estrutura para segmentar os trechos de documentos públicos. Posteriormente, classificamos semanticamente os trechos extraídos com uma estratégia de aprendizado ativo que minimiza o esforço manual de rotulação. Como resultado desses esforços, desenvolvemos um protótipo de anotação integrado ao processo de classificação, obtendo uma acurácia de 100% na extração e de 85% na classificação com muito pouco esforço de rotulação.

Este artigo apresenta o MIDET-IU (Method for Indexing Traffic Events - Interface de Usuário), um sistema que permite realizar consultas sobre eventos de trânsito coletados pelo aplicativo Waze. A implementação do sistema utiliza o modelo de armazenamento e consultas do MIDET, proposto no SBBD 2021. O modelo é baseado no particionamento espacial em forma de grade sobre uma área de interesse, gerando células geográficas (CGs) de tamanho fixo. Dessa forma, eventos de trânsito que ocorrem em uma mesma CG são armazenados em conjunto com o objetivo de obter um bom desempenho em consultas espaciais. Nesta demonstração, são utilizados dados do Waze da cidade de Joinville. Uma interface gráfica permite selecionar uma região de interesse, um intervalo de tempo, bem como os tipos de eventos a serem apresentados no resultado da consulta.
Challenges on Classifying Data Streams with Concept Drift
Authors: Barboza Eduardo Victor Lima , de Almeida Paulo Ricardo Lisboa
Published: September 2022

Concept Drift is a common problem when we are working with Machine Learning. It refers to changes in the target concept over time, which may deteriorate the model’s accuracy. A recurrent problem on concept drift is to find datasets that reflect real-world scenarios. In this work, we show some datasets known to have Concept Drift, and propose changes in an existing method (Dynse), which include making it capable of handling data streams, instead of batches, and putting some trigger on it, to make its window adaptive by detecting concept drift.
Evaluating ML models for lightning forecasting in Brazil
Authors: Bassanelli Pereira Arielle dos Santos , Fazenda Álvaro L. , Calheiros Alan James Peixoto
Published: September 2022

Instruments for monitoring severe meteorological phenomena (such as lightning, flooding and landslides) can be used to assist in decision-making by state agencies, in an attempt to mitigate their possible harmful effects. These phenomena usually occur suddenly on a short-term duration, under a limited region, imposing difficulties in being predicted by regular weather forecast models, requiring specific prediction systems. Very short-term weather forecasting systems, on order of a few hours, known as nowcasting, can include numerical models of physical phenomena and machine learning algorithms. This work presents a system for forecasting the incidence of lightning, a common phenomenon in electrically active storms, through the application and evaluation of two machine learning models, an Artificial Neural Network and a Random Forest model, which were able to detect the occurrence of atmospheric electrical discharges from the automatic recognition of patterns obtained from the data generated by the numerical weather forecasts. The Random Forest model presented the best results when trained with the set that includes the ten best correlated variables, reaching 99.77% of accuracy for the case study performed.
Métodos de Seleção de Pivôs: Uma avaliação experimental
Authors: Leite João V. S. , Telles Wagner R. , Oliveira Rodolfo A. , de Oliveira Daniel , Bedo Marcos
Published: September 2022

Consultas por similaridade em Espaços Métricos apoiam tarefas computacionais que envolvem comparações por distância, e.g., recuperação por conteúdo e classificação. Esse paradigma permite utilizar índices baseados em pivôs para reduzir o número de cálculos de distância e otimizar a execução das consultas. Os índices armazenam as distâncias dos objetos da base de dados para um conjunto de elementos selecionados (i.e., os pivôs) tal que, durante uma busca, esses valores pré-computados são combinados com a desigualdade triangular para descartar objetos da resposta. Portanto, a escolha de pivôs de "boa qualidade" é determinante para o desempenho dessas estruturas. Esse estudo investiga o impacto de oito estratégias distintas de escolha de pivôs (kMEDOIDS,C-HULL, PCA, M-VARIANCE, SELECTION, S-S-SELECTION, GNAT e M-SEPARATED) aplicadas aos índices Omni kd-Tree e VP-Tree. A avaliação experimental sugere que os métodos M-VARIANCE e kMEDOIDS encontram os melhores pivôs, enquanto as estratégias GNAT e C-HULL apresentam as piores escolhas. Os resultados também sugerem que índices diferentes são, potencialmente, melhor ajustados por diferentes métodos de escolha de pivôs.

Leitbild- und Konzeptentwicklung
Authors: Spengler Maria , Graf Pedro
Published: September 2022

Leitbilder, Konzeptionen, Leistungsbeschreibungen und klare Zielaussagen sind unverzichtbare Instrumente der Steuerung und des Qualitätsmanagements von Organisationen, in denen Menschen mit und für andere Menschen arbeiten.

Eine prozesshafte Entwicklung dieser Instrumente unter aktiver Beteiligung der Mitarbeitenden, wie sie hier empfohlen wird, leistet zudem einen wesentlichen Beitrag auf dem Weg zu einer lernenden Organisation. Denn dieser Prozess kann sowohl die Schlüsselqualifikationen der Beteiligten erweitern wie auch ihre Motivation und ihre Identifikation mit der Arbeit fördern. Ohne lernende Menschen gibt es keine lernende Organisation. Leitbild- und Konzeptentwicklung ist daher gleichzeitig immer auch Personal- und Organisationsentwicklung.

Zielgruppe:

Führungs- und Fachkräfte, Projektmanager sowie Beraterinnen und Berater in Einrichtungen und Diensten der Sozialen Arbeit, der Jugend- und Erwachsenenbildung sowie des Gesundheits- und Pflegemanagements, die entsprechende Prozesse fachlich, organisatorisch und moderierend begleiten. Auch bestens geeignet für Studierende der Studiengänge Sozialmanagement/Sozialwirtschaft, Sozialarbeit/Sozialpädagogik.

Entwicklung eines Verfahrens zur systematischen Leistungsbeurteilung pädagogischer Mitarbeiter

Führungskräfte in Kindertageseinrichtungen müssen sich regelmäßig Kenntnis über die beruflichen Leistungen ihrer Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter verschaffen. Nur so können sie feststellen, ob und ggf. welcher Fort- und Weiterbildungsbedarf des pädagogischen Personals besteht, um deren Handlungskompetenzen an die steigenden Anforderungen anzupassen. Voraussetzung dafür ist die Ermittlung der Aufgabenerfüllung in der Vergangenheit durch eine systematische Leistungsbeurteilung.

Dieses Buch bietet Führungskräften neben allgemeinen theoretischen Grundlagen einen Leitfaden zur Verfahrensentwicklung in der eigenen Kindertageseinrichtung. Obwohl neben begünstigenden Faktoren auch Grenzen und Schwachstellen existieren, die die Verfahrensentwicklung erschweren oder sogar verhindern können, wird deutlich, dass Führungskräfte sich diesem Themenfled zuwenden sollten, um zuverlässig und kontinuierlich Auskunft über die Leistungsfähigkeit ihrer Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter zu erhalten. So können sie die Personalentwicklung dauerhaft und transparent koordinieren und damit einen Beitrag zur Qualitätssicherung leisten!
Argumente gegen Geschlossene Unterbringung und Zwang in den Hilfen zur Erziehung
Authors:   IGfH-Arbeitsgruppe
Published: September 2022

Freiheitsentziehende Maßnahmen, 'fakultativ geschlossene' Plätze, zahlreiche neue Formen von 'Grauzonen' des Einschlusses in Form diverser "Time-out-Räume" und "-zeiten" sowie generell die Tendenz zur Legitimierung von Zwang kennzeichnen wieder Teile der Praxis der Kinder- und Jugendhilfe.

Diese neuen Formen freiheitsentziehender Maßnahmen kommen nicht mehr einfach als solche daher, sondern haben sich gleichsam neu erfunden, drücken aber – häufig mit dem Adjektiv 'intensiv' oder 'intensiv-pädagogisch' verbunden – in euphemistischer Sprache der Sache nach nichts anderes aus als 'geschlossene Unterbringung' in seiner modernisierten Form.

Deshalb hat die IGfH beschlossen, den Titel Argumente gegen Geschlossene Unterbringung, Freiheitsentzug und Zwang in neuer Form vorzulegen. Das Ziel besteht nach wie vor darin, beizutragen, die Praxis geschlossener Unterbringung in Heimen der Jugendhilfe und die Diskussion hierüber endgültig zu beenden.

Dieser Titel ist eine Veröffentlichung der Internationalen Gesellschaft für erzieherische Hilfen (IGfH).

Mit strukturierter interner Kommunikation zum nachhaltigen Unternehmenserfolg

Veränderungsprozesse aufgrund neuer digitaler Technologien, immer komplexer werdende Strukturen in wachsenden Unternehmen, Veränderungen in der Anspruchshaltung der Belegschaft hin zu mehr Partizipation und Eigenverantwortung, Gewinnung neuer Fachkräfte: viele Gründe sind es, weshalb die interne Kommunikation in Organisationen der Sozialwirtschaft verstärkt an Bedeutung gewinnt.

Motivation, Identifikation, Integration und Orientierung für die Mitarbeitenden – wichtige Schaltstelle für diese Kommunikationszentrale sind die Führungskräfte. Herausforderungen. Sie nehmen eine Multiplikator-Rolle ein, die zwischen Management und Belegschaft vermittelt. Der Autor nimmt in seinem Fachbuch Führungskommunikation in der Organisation diese daher besonders in den Blick und erläutert aufbauend auf einem Leitbeispiel und Interviews, wie eine gelingende interne Organisationskommunikation gestaltet werden kann:

Wie können Führungskräfte durch eine strukturierte interne Kommunikationin gut in ihrer täglichen Kommunikationsverantwortung unterstützt werden, um somit eine Leistungs- und Bleibemotivation bei den Organisationsmitgliedern zu erzeugen?

Wie können Ziele und Entscheidungen der Organisation sowie operative Maßnahmen greifbar und der innerbetriebliche Dialog über Werte und Kultur nachhaltig gestaltet werden?

Welche Informationen sind in den einzelnen Bereichen von Sozialunternehmen notwendig? Wer braucht welche Informationen und warum?

Wie kann ein konzeptioneller Rahmen für die interne Kommunikation aussehen, wie eine solche funktionstüchtig aufgebaut werden?

Die Vorstellung von Gesprächsführungstechniken, von Steuerungs- und Messinstrumenten sowie eine beispielhafte Projektplanung zur operativen Einführung runden diese Arbeitshilfe ab.

Probiotics in Processed Dairy Products and Their Role in Gut Microbiota Health
Authors: Fatima Sherwani Kishwer , Ara Abbas Bukhari Dil
Published: September 2022

Probiotics are the beneficial microorganisms, catalase negative which restore microbial balance inside the gut of humans as well as animals. Lactobacillus the earliest probiotic that have the beneficial impact on health. These “Good Microorganisms” can be obtained not only from various non-dairy products but also from processed dairy products like. Another economically viable method is microencapsulation for preserving probiotics and the stability is improved by glucose. Even the vitamins manufacturer the probiotic bacterial agents. The health benefits of probiotics include increased immunological responses, relief of lactose intolerance symptoms, therapy for diarrhea, reduction in serum of cholesterol, production of vitamin, anticarcinogenic. Probiotics play a wide range in the host body (e.g., decreasing illnesses and stress, enhancing immunity, modulation of gut microbiota, nutritional assistance, improving quality of water, etc.). So, the positive effects of probiotics help to boost animal feed value and growth and improve aquaculture breeding and hatching rates. Probiotics can lower the prevalence and severity of illnesses, showing their promise to cure or prevent COVID-19. Lactobacillus casei also interact with epithelial cells with Toll-like receptors (TLRs) to improve the production of cytokines that are important in the enhancement of cell productivity and prevent apoptosis during restoration, which promote survival and proliferation. The preservation of the human GI or lung microbiota might help prevent COVID-19, as dysbiosis plays an essential role in people’s vulnerability to infectious illnesses. Most of the experimental studies proved that bacteria isolated from processed dairy products belonged to lactic acid bacteria and are declared as probiotic bacteria. In present review, various research studies regarding significance of probiotics as well as their extraction from processed dairy products are discussed.

This chapter focuses on how coral reef deterioration impacts the well-being of the affected coastal communities. In a macro-level perspective, the chapter discusses 1) how coral reefs socioeconomically benefit humans and 2) how coral reef deterioration impacts humans. This part of the discussion sheds light on several adverse effects of coral reef degradation ranging from reductions in food availability and income to losses of jobs and built capital. In a micro-level perspective, the socioeconomic impact of coral reef degradation on vulnerable coastal communities is illustrated through a case study of the 1998 coral bleaching in Indonesia. The households affected by this bleaching event experienced a large income shock, which translated into reduced protein consumption and impeded child development. The chapter then concludes with two broad policy recommendations drawn from both the macro- and micro-level discussions. First, reef conservation and restoration are economically viable investments due to the immense socioeconomic values of coral reefs. Second, policy interventions are required to mitigate impacts of coral reef degradation on the vulnerable groups and to facilitate the adaptation process.
Aflatoxin and Mycotoxin Analysis: An Overview Including Options for Resource-limited Settings
Authors: Z. Magoke Godfrey , G. Alders Robyn , Krockenberger Mark , L. Bryden Wayne
Published: September 2022

Aflatoxins are fungal toxins of serious human health concern, more so in some developing countries where significant contamination of staple foods occurs and the prevalence of aflatoxin-related health effects is high. A plethora of techniques for food mycotoxin testing has been developed. Modern chromatographic techniques allow quantitative determination with high accuracy and sensitivity, but are expensive and difficult to operate and maintain. Rapid tests provide a cheaper alternative for screening large numbers of samples, although they need validation on all food matrices that are tested. One important aspect of tackling aflatoxin contamination and exposure is to ensure the availability of suitable methods for detection and quantification that are rapid, sensitive, accurate, robust, and cost-effective for food surveillance in resource-limited settings.

Authors: Zhou Yanghua
Published: September 2022

This chapter explores effective human resource development strategies during and post-crisis. Particularly, during the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, the remote and hybrid measures taken by multinational corporations (MNCs) play a significant role in the development of people. According to previous literature, the internal enterprise social network (ESN) of MNCs, localization of human resources in overseas subsidiaries, and flexibility and resilience of human resource systems have a positive impact on people’s development during this crisis. Leadership has a moderating effect on using the internal ESN for remote learning, people development performance, and organizational resilience building via crises. Based on a literature review and theoretical analysis, this chapter puts forward several propositions to clarify the kind of leadership and leadership competencies that positively influence knowledge sharing through ESNs and organizational resilience innovation. Suggestions for leadership development. This chapter serves as a good reference for both business professionals and academic researchers. It provides original suggestions for both MNCs and small and medium-sized enterprises.
Heat Recovery from Cryptocurrency Mining by Liquid Cooling Technology
Authors: Chen Nan , Chen Yunshui , Zhao He
Published: September 2022

Bitcoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency, currently consumes an estimated 150 terawatt-hours of electricity annually. Most cryptocurrency miners have dissipated the thermal energy from mining chips to the ambient by air cooling circulation. To recover the thermal energy from cryptocurrency mining, an advanced heat recovery system has been developed, prototyped, and tested. The cryptocurrency miners in an enclosure are cooled by spraying dielectric coolant, then the coolant heated by the mining chips is collected and driven through the spiral heating coil immersed in a 190 L hot water tank. High efficient liquid spray cooling mechanism is the core of this design, by which maximum coolant temperature can reach 70°C in the field trail within the safe temperature limits of mining chips. In practice, this record temperature not only meets the minimum legionellosis risk management requirements for building water systems defined by ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 188-2018 but also provides high-grade energy input to the building, district heating system, or booster heat pump/boiler if needed. In theory, the conventional concept of PUE based on energy has been redefined by the PUE based on exergy. The energy-based PUE is 1.03 and the exergy-based PUE is 0.95 in this case, which can truly reflect the useful energy flow, exergy, in the heat reclaim system.

Authors: Guzmán Katherine , Kumar Brajesh , Grijalva Marcelo , Debut Alexis , Cumbal Luis
Published: September 2022

In this chapter, eco-friendly in situ synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using a mixture of ascorbic acid and citric acid is introduced. The synthesis conditions of the AgNPs were optimized by adjusting the pH of the reaction mixture. Different spectroscopic and microscopic techniques have been used to characterize the physico-chemical properties of AgNPs. The synthesis of AgNPs was primarily identified by the appearance of yellow colour and confirmed by showing λmax = 409 nm in UV-visible spectroscopy. All characterization techniques reveal that the generated AgNPs were non-aggregated, quasi-spherical shapes with an average size of 22.4 ± 13.2 nm, and face-centred cubic crystalline structures. Infrared spectroscopy confirms the surface of AgNPs covered with -COOH group and shows peaks at 1733, 1759, 3262 and 3633 cm−1. Moreover, synthesized AgNPs at pH 10 were stable for one month with a slight change in size. A straightforward, facile and environmentally-friendly synthesis of highly stable AgNPs may contribute to future engineering applications.

Authors: Ghobadi Morteza , Ahmadipari Masumeh
Published: September 2022

Background: Identifying the effects of industrial complexes on the environmental components is essential in the industrial activities’ development planning. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the environmental impact of Khorramabad industrial parks using hybrid modeling. Methods: In the study, a fuzzy expert system was used to evaluate the environmental impact of industrial parks. In the proposed model, a fuzzy inference system (FIS) was designed based on the Mamdani method and rapid impact assessment matrix (RIAM) model. Results: The most negative effects are observed in the –E (major negative impacts) and –C (moderately negative impacts) ranges. About 24% of the negative effects of activities of industrial park 1 are in the –E range. In industrial park 3, the most negative effects are observed in the –C range (27%). Conclusions: Industrial parks cause negative impacts on different parts of the environment. These consequences are a major issue for environmental planners and managers. The proposed approach could increase the accuracy and flexibility of effects in decision-making.

Published: September 2022

O problema de pesquisa deste estudo é retratado no seguinte questionamento: a Controladoria Geral da União (CGU) atuava com vistas à produção de precedentes administrativos, na sua atividade disciplinar, antes da edição do artigo 30 da Nova Lei de Introdução às Normas do Direito Brasileiro (NLINDB)? Fundamentado na análise empírica de dados extraídos do Banco de Conhecimento do órgão, no método hipotético-dedutivo e na pesquisa bibliográfica, o estudo parte da hipótese de que a CGU já trilhava um caminho apto à produção de precedentes administrativos, o que se confirma com a constatação da produção de instruções, enunciados, portarias normativas e notas técnicas antes da NLINDB. Para tanto, o órgão observava o conjunto normativo existente, suficiente para que as decisões sigam uma cultura pautada pela exposição da razão de decidir e a necessidade de justificar overruling ou distinguishing. Em suma, o traço de novidade trazido pelo artigo 30 é a autovinculação obrigatória para a Administração Pública.

Published: September 2022

A Amazônia é considerada um conjunto de ecossistemas, caracterizada principalmente pela sua rica sociobiodiversidade, a qual vem sofrendo ao longo dos tempos um desordenado processo de ocupação e a consequente alteração na dinâmica de urbanização da região em sua porção brasileira, de modo que instrumentos normativos precisam ser (re)pensados para formalizar e fortalecer a luta pela lógica da cidade da Floresta, como é o caso dos Protocolos Autônomos de Consulta Prévia (PACP). Assim, é objetivo geral da presente pesquisa analisar a relação dos PACP com a garantia do direito à cidade na cidade da Floresta. Para tanto, fez-se uso do método de abordagem dedutivo. Em relação às técnicas de investigação, utilizou-se o levantamento e a análise de dados bibliográficos e documentais. Como resultado, pôde-se observar que os PACP podem ser considerados instrumentos operativos tanto do direito à consulta, quanto da cidade como espaço de reencontro.

Academic libraries are experiencing significant changes and making efforts to deliver their service in the digital environment. Libraries are transforming from being places for reading to extensions of the classroom and learning spaces. Due to the globalized digital environment and intense competition, libraries are trying to improve their service quality through various evaluations. As reference service is crucial to users, this study explores user satisfaction towards the reference service through WhatsApp, a social media instant messenger, at a major university in Hong Kong and discusses the correlation between the satisfaction rating and three variables. Suggestions and recommendations are raised for future improvements. The study also sheds light on the usage of reference services through instant messaging in other academic libraries.
“I've been having these weird thoughts lately...”
Authors: Bowman Dean
Published: September 2022

This paper draws on the theory of mastermind narration developed by M.J. Clarke in the context of prestige television dramas with highly complex non-linear narratives and inconsistent characters (Clarke, 2012) and Jason Mittell’s (2015) concept of ‘forensic fandom’ to offer a reading of the Kingdom Hearts (Square Enix, 2002-) franchise in light of postmodern practices of textual consumption characteristic of current fandoms, such as those explored by Henry Jenkins (2006) and Matt Hills (2002), but also addressing Japanese theorists Hiroki Azuma (2009) and Eiji Ōtsuka’s (2010) work around the notion of the Otaku. I argue that the series’ significant deviation from Disney’s traditional approach to narrative (Wasko, 2001) indicates a desire for the corporation to explore radical new forms of textual production, and to negotiate emerging fan consumption practices within the safe environment of a controlled and licensed text. Just as cultural theorists like Clarke and Anne Allison (2006) argue that a textual product can often contain traces that reflect its wider conditions of production, I propose that the Kingdom Hearts franchise can be read allegorically as an extended experiment by Disney into new forms of collaborative storytelling. I attempt to demonstrate this by concluding with an exploration of the metareflexive depiction of the fan practice of cosplay.
Controllers and the Magic Kingdom
Authors: Denison Rayna
Published: September 2022

Who controls the Kingdom Hearts franchise? This article examines this question using a mixed industrial and promotional approach to seek moments of revelation about the creation and status of the Kingdom Hearts franchise for both of its conglomerate co-creators, Disney and Square Enix. Disney’s conglomerated industrial practice has long been assessed for adherence to the concept of synergy. By examining where and how synergy was adopted as an industrial logic within the creation of the Kingdom Hearts franchise, and Kingdom Hearts III in particular, I argue that it is in moments of tension, that we can find the most instructive evidence for who controls the games we play. Following work by Janet Wasko (2001) and Barbara Klinger (1999) in particular, I first look across the shared discursive history of the franchise and then at the promotion of Kingdom Hearts III for instances where synergy breaks down or becomes contested. These, I contend, demonstrate the limits of the logical of synergy in cross-cultural, transindustrial production cultures.
