PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF THE EMPLOYMENT CENTER
Authors: Martynets V. , Antonenko A. , Kolomiiets D.
Published: July 2022

There are crisis processes in the current conditions of socio-economic development of Ukraine. These crisis processes are caused by economic and political instability, demographic situation, the pandemic of COVID-19 and external factors. Macroeconomic indicators in 2019-2020 have a negative development trend, such as falling GDP and rising unemployment. Unemployed people turn to the employment service, in order to quickly find a decent job. Therefore, in order to increase the efficiency of the employment center, it is necessary to apply new approaches to the organization of the center and innovative technologies for providing services.
The main functions of the employment service are examines in the article, such as: assessment and forecasting of the dynamics of employment; informing about supply and demand in the labor market; development and implementation of programs to promote employment of the unemployed; assistance in finding a job for a person who lost his job; assignment of social unemployment benefits according to the legislation of Ukraine. The scientific approaches are analyzed to the evaluation of the efficiency of the employment service. Based on a quantitative approach to assessing the effectiveness of the employment service calculated performance indicators of the Sumy Regional Employment Center, that is: the number of unemployed, determined by the ILO methodology, level of employment, workload for 10 vacancies, average duration of job search, the share of the long-term unemployed in the number of unemployed who were registered at the employment center. The article presents the results of a sociological survey aimed at assessing the quality of services provided by the employment center. According to the results of the assessment are proposed ways to increase the efficiency of the Sumy Regional Employment Center, that is: create a database of vacancies, the salary of which will not be below the subsistence level; organize a vacancy fair; to raise public awareness of the range of services of the employment center; to involve employers in determining the directions and forms of vocational training of the unemployed.

Authors: Shahu Neha Shivkanth , Gamit Bhavna Nilesh , Sheth Sheetal Pankajbhai , Sutariya Sweta Ashokbhai , Kukadiya Harshal Harsukhbhai
Published: July 2022

Background: FNAC is rapid, simple, safe, cost effective and good screening procedure with high sensitivity and specificity. Clinically, the diseases of breast mainly present as palpable breast lump, pain and nipple discharge. Most of the breast lumps are benign but pose a significant anxiety to the patient, which can be allayed by giving assurance that, usually it is benign. So it is necessary to distinguish benign from malignant conditions

Methods: The present study on was carried out during June 2017 to May 2019. We categorized the patients into C1 (Inadequate), C2 (Benign), C3 (Atypia, probably benign), C4 (Suspicious of malignancy) and C5 (Malignant) category according to NHSBSP and correlated histopathologically whenever available.

Result: Total 500 cases examined. Majority of the cases were in the 3rd decade of the life. Benign category comprised of 368 cases (73.6%), followed by malignant disease 61 (12.2%). Fibroadenoma was most common comprising of 230 cases (62.3%) among benign cases. Out of 230 cases of Fibroadenoma, most (89) cases were in 21-30 years age group, followed by 11-20 years age group. Breast carcinoma was most common (31.1%) in 41-50 years age group and 61-70 (27.9%) years age group followed by 51-60 (19.7%) years age group.

Conclusion: FNAC of breast lesions is advantageous for both clinicians and patients because of its immediate results, economy, and accuracy. FNAC has got significant diagnostic value in differentiating benign from malignant lesions providing us valuable information for planning of subsequent therapeutic management and avoiding unwanted surgeries.

Authors: Goel Vartika , Gupta Veena , Marwah Nisha , Dalal Niti , Jain Promil , Sen Rajeev
Published: July 2022

Background: Prostatic cancer is a complex and biologically heterogenous disease. Diagnosis of prostatic lesions with immunohistochemistry still faces challenges because of difference in reactivity of monoclonal antibodies in benign, equivocal, and malignant lesions. Proliferative markers Ki-67 and Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA) can be used for diagnosis and prognostic stratification of prostatic carcinoma.

Methods: A total of hundred prostate biopsies with 50 cases each of benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate carcinoma received in the Department of Pathology, PGIMS, Rohtak, India were included in the study. Ki-67 and PCNA expression was studied immunohistochemically in each case.

Result: Ki-67 expression was significantly upregulated in malignant cases and increased with increasing Gleason grade. PCNA expression was also found to be increased in increasing Gleason grades in carcinoma cases, however, the results were ambiguous as it was found to be positive in all benign cases also.

Conclusion: Ki-67 is useful in predicting biological behavior in prostate carcinoma cases, however PCNA expression needs to be studied further.

Authors: Pant Ishita , Chaturvedi Sujata , Sarma Pragyan , Sehgal Shelly
Published: July 2022

Introduction: Meningiomas are a group of neoplasms showing a spectrum of histopathological variants, mostly corresponding to World Health Organization (WHO) grade I. However, certain histologic variants correspond histologically to WHO grades II and III. In this study, the histopathological spectrum of the adult as well as paediatric meningiomas received in our department over the last 12 years is being revisited with the aim to analyse the various histopathological variants, to assess their grade as per WHO 2016 criteria, their epidemiology and localization.

Material and methods: A retrospective analysis of the histopathology records and clinical case files was done in 336 cases of (adult and paediatric meningiomas) histopathologically diagnosed cases of intracranial and intraspinal meningiomas (WHO grade I, II and III) received over a period of 12 years (starting from 2009-2020) in our department.

Results: The commonest grade in adults and children was WHO Grade I while the commonest histopathological variant in adults and children was Transitional meningioma. 

Conclusion: As per WHO classification of CNS Tumours 2016, grade I meningiomas are associated with low risk of recurrence and aggressive behaviour, while WHO grade II and III meningiomas are associated with greater likelihood of recurrence and aggressive behaviour, highlighting the importance of accurate typing and grading of meningiomas on histopathology.

The tasks were L1 summary writing (SW), L1 sentence translation (ST), gap-fill (GF), and comprehension questions (CQ). The subjects were undergraduate students from different departments at a local university. Throughout the experiment period, the subjects took Vocabulary Size Test (VST) and performed their respective tasks. Upon completing their task, they were required to take a posttest immediately after their tasks, and two weeks later, the same posttest was administered to examine the long-term effect of the tasks on retention of vocabulary from different parts of speech. The result showed that SW group performed significantly better than CQ group for retaining the target vocabulary from all the parts of speech on the immediate posttest. However, the result of the delayed posttest showed that SW group outperformed all the other groups in retaining noun for a longer period of time.
The Alchemical Imagination in Ben Jonson’s The Alchemist
Authors:   British And American Language And Literature Association Of Korea, Lee Jungyoung
Published: July 2022

This paper explores the alchemical imagination in Ben Jonson’s The Alchemist . In the Renaissance, alchemy was a kind of natural philosophy that contributed to the development of modern science. As The Alchemist was a product of widespread alchemical knowledge in Renaissance England, there are multiple symbolic representations of alchemy in the play. Subtle and Face define each other as a homunculus that is created by Paracelsus and looks like a human being but much smaller. Paracelsus, an alchemist and physician in the Renaissance, mentions that a homunculus is created by art (i.e. alchemy), putting the semen of a man in a cucurbit to putrefy along with horse dung for forty days. Thus, the play implies that Face and Subtle can be homunculi created in the great cucurbit, London, corrupted both morally and physically. The behaviour of characters filled with desire accelerates corruption in London, which is important for regeneration in the play as Paracelsus describes corruption as the first step and an essential process for regeneration. In the meantime, the dramatis personae experience the process of transmutation in Lovewit’s mansion, which is not only an imaginary space but also a space of transmutation. Therefore, Lovewit’s mansion becomes both a theatre and laboratory in which the characters attempt to transform their identities. With regard to this, John Shanahan argues that The Alchemist represents two cultures between arts and sciences. Therefore, the play seems to represent the influence that alchemy has on society and, as Justin Kolb explains, is a product of alchemical practices and thought in Renaissance England.
Meaning of tea ceremony ‘experience’ from the perspective of lifelong learning
Authors:   Association for International Tea Culture, Yoon Do-hye , Kim Jong-hee
Published: July 2022

This study investigated to explore the essential meaning of the tea ceremony experience based on the experience concept of the German philosopher Wilhelm Dilthey. In addition, it aims to present a useful theoretical and methodological basis for the search for the desirable direction to pursue the continuous and practical meaning of the tea ceremony experience from a lifelong learning approach. Accordingly, in this study, tea ceremony experience was presented as various dimensions of lifelong learning: 1) lifelong dimension, 2) self-actualization dimension, and 3) hermeneutic cycle and understanding dimension. As a result, the tea ceremony experience is treated in depth for learners and the implications for popular dissemination are as follows. First, the tea ceremony experience should not be focused on ‘experienced’, but the process of ‘understanding and exploring the meaning of experience’, as Dilthey emphasized. Second, by sharing the experience of others through expression, uniqueness and commonality among participants should be confirmed. Third, the instructor should understand the viewpoints of the learners and suggest the direction of learning so that they can make their experiences more contextual and meaningful. Based on the above discussion, this study identified the meaning and learning implications of tea ceremony experience from the perspective of lifelong education.

Aim. To assess new introduced varieties of pea (Pisum sativum L.) of different ecological and geographical origin in conditions of the Southern part of the Forest-Steppe of Ukraine according to a set of productivity and adaptability indicators.
Methods. During 2018–2020 in the conditions of Ustymivka Experimental Station of Plant Production of the Plant Production Institute named after V. Ya. Yuriev NAAS of Ukraine (Poltava region, 49°18′21″N, 33°13′56″E) 30 new pea samples originating from Belarus, Azerbaijan, Canada, Poland and the Netherlands were studied. In the ripening phase of pods and seeds (BBCH 86–90) in field and laboratory conditions yields, productivity, 1000 beans weight, early-ripening, plant height and height of attachment of the lower pods above the soil level, number of nodes to the first pod and their total number per plant, number of pods and seeds per plant, number of seeds per pod, pod parameters were studied.
Results. As a result of studying new samples of pea, the range of variation of their yield from 200.5 to 300.0 g/m2 was established, while the varieties ‘Aleks’, ‘Atlant’, ‘Minskiy ovoschnoy’ (Belarus), ‘Fidan’ (Azerbaijan), ‘Dacota’ (Canada), ‘Angela’ (Netherlands) were more productive, in which the mass of grain from the plant exceeded 10.0 g. The productivity of the plant was high due to both the increased number of seeds and the weight of 1000 grains. Almost all the studied samples were mediumripe (71–80 days) and are optimal for the Southern Forest-Steppe zone of Ukraine. The most early maturing (64–69 days) were the Belarusian varieties ‘Yan’, ‘Gontso’, ‘Goryinets’, ‘Alfa’, ‘Pryivabnyi’, ‘Malyish’ and the Dutch ‘Angela’ variety. The lowest varieties were Belarusian varieties – ‘Goryinets’, ‘Vlad’, ‘Alfa’, ‘Atlant’ and others (31.0–60.0 cm), which can be used as sources on this basis. Special attention should be paid to varieties that combine several valuable features: ‘Aleks’, ‘Atlant’, ‘Minskiy ovoschnoy’, ‘Korelicheskiy ovoschnoy’, ‘Slodyich’, ‘Malyish’, ‘Kosmay’, ‘Kelvidon’ (Belarus), ‘Fidan’ (Azerbaijan), ‘Jof’ (Poland), ‘CDC Limerick’ (Canada), ‘Orix’ (Spain).
Conclusions. The above varieties can be recommended as sources of valuable traits for practical use in breeding, and they are suitable for cultivation in the Southern Forest-Steppe, subject to inclusion in the State Register of plant varieties suitable for distribution in Ukraine.
Legal assistance to judges during military conflicts
Authors: Gusarov Kostiantyn
Published: July 2022

The article is devoted to the peculiarities of providing legal assistance to judges, including during military conflicts. It is noted that the workload of courts with a large number of cases to be resolved was largely due to military aggression and the existing shortage of judges. Given the provisions of the Code of Judicial Ethics, it is necessary to avoid any illegal influence on a judge's professional activity and the difficulty of complying with the requirements for tact, endurance and respect for judges and others. An attempt has been made to analyze the most common categories of cases in which judges are parties to the case. Taking into account the data on a significant number of cases in the Unified State Register of Judgments, it was deemed expedient to structure them as follows: 1) cases concerning appeals against decisions of the High Council of Justice and the High Qualification Commission of Judges of Ukraine; 2) cases on appeal against dismissal of a judge; 3) cases concerning the recovery of a judge's fee; 4) cases on recovery of payments of due sums of money in connection with the legal consequences of satisfaction of the judge's resignation application; 5) cases related to the probable commission of a corruption act by a judge. The classification of these cases is not exhaustive and can be structured in another way, taking into account the possibility of changing the range of legal relations, the participants of which are the holders of judicial power.

The important aspect while considering the bankruptcy of citizens represents issues that rise while realization of dwelling, in particular, when this dwelling is the only place of living that belong to the family of the bankrupt person. This dwelling is also the only place suitable for living for such family. In spite of the existing regulation of exclusion of such residential premises from the contest lot of premises when the dwelling is taken from the debtor. Representatives of the legal practice, taking into consideration the unscrupulous actions of the debtor, abuses from their part, have to take other approaches to the established executive immunity. The norms that regulate the issues of the realization of the sole dwelling of the bankrupt citizen, has to be more precise. In particular, there is the need to legally reinforce the requirements that are submitted to the sole dwelling of the debtor. Likewise, there is the necessity to establish the level of luxury of the sole dwelling. It is stated that this issue should be regulated by the lawmaker in accordance with the executive immunity and by meeting creditors’ requirements. Whereas, as it is stated, if the legislative regulations are absent and they do not allow determining the criteria of the sole dwelling of the debtor, it leads to various procedural complications when the case goes to court. In case of taking sole property of the debtor, his or her rights are violated as well as the rights of the members of his or her family and the rights of creditors.
Discrimination in Sport’s Sphere: Concept, Legal Nature and Methods of Counteraction
Authors:   Saint Petersburg Institute (Branch), All-Russian State University of Justice, Sergeeva A.A.
Published: July 2022

The authors of the article analyze current issues of how to qualify discrimination manifestations in relations to sports events. The authors distinguish two forms of the discrimination behavior; one of them represents the demeaning of dignity of the person on the ground of the person’s belonging to a certain social group. The second form relates to creating the restrictions to access to sports events participation based on the wrong interpretation of the equal opportunities of sportsmen. The first form of discrimination can be viewed as an actual component of extremism whereas the second one, being atypical, has complicated medical and legal nature that is not appropriately reflected in the legal norms of the sports legislation. Counteraction to the ordinary form of discrimination is feasible when one uses administrative and criminal legal instruments. The authors summarize significant volume of empirical material that shows the need for optimization of the law enforcement practice in this field. In the system of current law regulation of sports events, the priority is in imposing penalties on sports organizations if their members or participants of sports events allow manifestation of discrimination. People who are directly accountable for the discrimination manifestations rarely are found personally responsible for that which is not related at all to the character and degree of the social danger of discriminatory behavior.

The SAR, MH, KR and %Na reveal the groundwater status for irrigation based on the ratings of the indices.
Surface modification of spent coffee grounds using phosphoric acid for enhancement of methylene blue adsorption from aqueous solution
Authors: Akindolie M. S. , Choi H. J.
Published: July 2022

In this study, the surface of the spent coffee grounds (SCG) was activated using phosphoric acid to increase the removal efficiency of methylene blue (MB) in aqueous solution, which is one of the harmful substances emitted in industrial processes. According to Fourier transform infra-red analysis, after phosphorylation of the SCG (PSCG), P = O group, P–O–C (aromatic) bond, P = OOH and P–O–P were newly introduced on the surface of the adsorbent, and the peaks of carboxyl groups and OH-group were large and broad. In addition, the surface area and mesopore range of the PSCG adsorbent were increased, and the structure changed, which enabled easy adsorption of MB. The process of adsorbing MB from aqueous solution using PSCG was more suitable for the pseudo-second order and Langmuir models, and the adsorption process was closer to chemisorption than physical adsorption. The maximum adsorption capacity of PSCG was 188.68 mg/g. As a result of the reuse test, PSCG showed excellent performance with a high removal efficiency of 90% up to four consecutive uses. PSCG modified with phosphoric acid, an abundant lignocellulose-based biosorbent that is readily available everywhere, is a promising adsorbent capable of adsorbing MB in aqueous solution.

Published: July 2022

In Kalimantan, gelam (Melaleuca cajuputi)  grows naturally in the swamp forest reaching 40 m with a diameter around 35 cm. Gelam wood is very resistant to acid soil in the swamp forest. Despite of it’s small diameter, gelam wood is very strong. This wood is usually used as the main house, as mold or mall support in casting concrete. Ulin (Eusideroxylon zwageri) is a typical plant of Kalimantan. In this study, the ignition duration, burning speed, and ash weight from briquette made from mixture of ulin and gelam sawdust was investigated. Size of sawdust used for briquette was varied for 40, 50, and 60 mesh while compaction pressure during briquette production was varied for 100, 125 and 150 kg/cm2. The study shows that the highest combustion temperature at 178 oC occurred for briquette with compaction pressure of 150 kg/cm2. Meanwhile, the lowest combustion temperature was obtained in briquette witch compaction pressure of 100 kg/cm2.

Social media as a means of communication plays a role in building a new paradigm of disaster. One of the social media users for hydrometeorological disaster communication is a shallot farmer in Parangtritis Village, Kretek Subdistrict, Bantul District, Yogyakarta Special Region. This study aims to determine the role of social media as a means of communication for hydrometeorological disasters in shallot farming activities. The design of this research is descriptive quantitative research. The research was carried out from April to October 2021 by taking the location of shallot farmers in Parangtritis Village, Kretek Subdistrict, Bantul District, Yogyakarta Special Region. The research sample was determined by a quota of 50 respondents. Research data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The data that has been collected is then processed and analyzed descriptively. The results of this study show that: (1) The respondents' ownership of gadgets is 84%. Of all respondents who have gadgets, 71.4% of respondents have an internet connection. (2) All respondents stated that ownership of gadgets and internet connection is useful in hydrometeorological disaster information. (3) All respondents who have gadgets and internet connections have facebook and whatsapp social media accounts. (4) The role of ownership of social media accounts is as a means of exchanging information on hydrometeorological disasters, namely information related to shallot farming activities (seedlings, soil processing, fertilizers, pest eradication, harvesting, etc.) and information on the threat of hydrometeorological disasters on shallot farming, such as floods and extreme weather. The existence of social media is able to have a positive impact on shallot farmers, especially in adapting to existing weather conditions with strategies to change crop variations, change cropping patterns, change planting periods, and change irrigation systems, thereby helping harvest success.

Published: July 2022

Policy makers and implementers need to consider a good communication strategy as an instrument to support effective policy implementation. This article aims to analyze policy communication in the implementation of Social Security Target Families in Yogyakarta City. The research design used is descriptive qualitative. The results showed that the process of delivering information, clarity of information, and consistency of information have been able to support the successful implementation of the policy. Submission of information to policy implementers has been carried out through regular coordination meetings. Meanwhile, the delivery of information to the target group is carried out through socialization through television media and mass media coverage. The understanding and competence of policy implementers in their duties also supports this process. Clarity of information on policy implementation has been determined in the regulations that guide program implementation. One of them is the use of seven aspects and sixteen parameters in program data collection. In addition, it has also involved the community in the process, although there are still issues of likes and dislikes in data collection. The consistent application of regulations, orders, and information has also made it easier for implementers to apply policies in the field.
The narration of religion on television, reconstruction of meaning and diversity
Authors: Setiawan Benni
Published: July 2022

This paper aims to construct the diversity reality of the society that has been presented in the media reality of television. Television presents symbols that need to be interpreted critically. When humans perform critical interpretation consciously, the meaning of diversity will be comprehensively grasped. On the contrary, when television shows cannot be interpreted in a mature frame of mind, it will become a serious problem for society. One of the serious issues deals with the abundant religious shows in the month of Ramadan. Religious television programs are part of religion commodification. Religion became a cheap trade. Ironically, many people enjoyed the show and served it as a guide. In fact, what is shown on television has largely blinded the reality of humanity and distanced human beings from civilization.

Paragangliomas are rare tumors that may present with cranial neuropathies when located along the skull base. Supratentorial paragangliomas are less likely to secrete catecholamines but should be worked up, nonetheless. We highlight a case of a female in her fourth decade found to have a petroclival lesion following initial presentation that included one month of tooth pain, dysphagia, diplopia, hoarseness and right hemifacial hypoesthesia. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain demonstrated a T2 hyperintense lesion favored to be a petroclival meningioma. Pre-operative angiography demonstrated a hypervascular tumor. She underwent a combined presigmoid craniotomy with posterior petrosectomy performed by both neurosurgery and neuro-otology. Pathology demonstrated paraganglioma. She had small volume residual tumor and is planned for continued outpatient radiotherapy. Paragangliomas should be on the differential for skull base lesions. Management paradigm involves multidisciplinary care and a combination of surgical resection and post-operative radiation. In this paper, we discuss underlying pathophysiology as well as appropriate workup and management.
The Impact of Cognitive Function on Virtual Reality Intervention for Upper Extremity Rehabilitation of Patients With Subacute Stroke: Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial With 6-Month Follow-up
Authors: Leng Yan , Lo Wai Leung Ambrose , Mao Yu Rong , Bian Ruihao , Zhao Jiang Li , Xu Zhiqin , Li Le , Huang Dong Feng
Published: July 2022

Background

Stroke is among the leading causes of long-term disability worldwide. Motor impairments after stroke not only impact the individuals quality of life but also lay substantial burdens on the society. Motor planning is a key component of cognitive function that impacts motor control. Hand movements such as grasping or reaching to grasp require the application of correct force and the coordination of multiple limb segments. Successful completion of hand motor task requires a certain degree of cognitive function to anticipate the requirement of the task. Cognitive function may thus be a confounding factor to rehabilitation outcomes.

Objective

This study aims to explore the impact of cognitive function on functional outcomes in people with subacute stroke after VR intervention.

Methods

Patients with stroke were first stratified into cognitively normal (CN) and cognitively impaired (CI), followed by allocation to the VR or control group (CG). Fugl-Meyer Assessment for Upper Extremity (FMA-UE), Barthel Index (BI), and Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) were recorded at baseline, 3 weeks after the intervention, and 3 and 6 months after the intervention. The between-group and within-group differences were assessed by repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA).

Results

The between-group comparison indicated that FMA-UE, BI, and IADL (time effect P<.001 for all) scores improved significantly in both groups after the intervention. Repeated-measures ANOVA indicated that FMA-UE, BI, and IADL (time effect P<.001 for all) were significantly different in each subgroup after the intervention. For BI score, the ANOVA results showed obvious interaction effects (treatment × time × cognitive effect, P=.04).

Conclusions

VR intervention was as effective as traditional conventional therapy in improving upper limb function regardless of the cognitive functional level. Patients with stroke with impaired cognitive function may gain more improvement in upper limb function and independency in performing activities of daily living after a VR-based intervention.

Automatically Identifying Twitter Users for Interventions to Support Dementia Family Caregivers: Annotated Data Set and Benchmark Classification Models
Authors: Klein Ari Z , Magge Arjun , O'Connor Karen , Gonzalez-Hernandez Graciela
Published: July 2022

Background

More than 6 million people in the United States have Alzheimer disease and related dementias, receiving help from more than 11 million family or other informal caregivers. A range of traditional interventions has been developed to support family caregivers; however, most of them have not been implemented in practice and remain largely inaccessible. While recent studies have shown that family caregivers of people with dementia use Twitter to discuss their experiences, methods have not been developed to enable the use of Twitter for interventions.

Objective

The objective of this study is to develop an annotated data set and benchmark classification models for automatically identifying a cohort of Twitter users who have a family member with dementia.

Methods

Between May 4 and May 20, 2021, we collected 10,733 tweets, posted by 8846 users, that mention a dementia-related keyword, a linguistic marker that potentially indicates a diagnosis, and a select familial relationship. Three annotators annotated 1 random tweet per user to distinguish those that indicate having a family member with dementia from those that do not. Interannotator agreement was 0.82 (Fleiss kappa). We used the annotated tweets to train and evaluate support vector machine and deep neural network classifiers. To assess the scalability of our approach, we then deployed automatic classification on unlabeled tweets that were continuously collected between May 4, 2021, and March 9, 2022.

Results

A deep neural network classifier based on a BERT (bidirectional encoder representations from transformers) model pretrained on tweets achieved the highest F1-score of 0.962 (precision=0.946 and recall=0.979) for the class of tweets indicating that the user has a family member with dementia. The classifier detected 128,838 tweets that indicate having a family member with dementia, posted by 74,290 users between May 4, 2021, and March 9, 2022—that is, approximately 7500 users per month.

Conclusions

Our annotated data set can be used to automatically identify Twitter users who have a family member with dementia, enabling the use of Twitter on a large scale to not only explore family caregivers’ experiences but also directly target interventions at these users.

BACKGROUND

Despite high levels of psychological distress experienced by many patients with cancer, previous research has identified several barriers to accessing traditional face-to-face psychological support. Web-based psychosocial interventions have emerged as a promising alternative.

OBJECTIVE

This meta-review aimed to synthesize evidence on recruitment challenges and enablers, factors that promote engagement and adherence to web-based intervention content, and factors that promote the efficacy of web-based psychosocial interventions for patients with cancer and cancer survivors.

METHODS

We conducted a systematic search of previous reviews that investigated the recruitment, engagement, and efficacy of web-based and app-based psychosocial interventions in adult patients with cancer and cancer survivors. We searched PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and the Cochrane Library database for relevant literature. The search terms focused on a combination of topics pertaining to neoplasms and telemedicine. Two independent authors conducted abstract screening, full text screening, and data extraction for each identified article.

RESULTS

A total of 20 articles met eligibility criteria. There was inconsistency in the reporting of uptake and engagement data; however, anxiety about technology and perceived time burden were identified as 2 key barriers. Web-based psychosocial oncology interventions demonstrated efficacy in reducing depression and stress but reported weak to mixed findings for distress, anxiety, quality of life, and well-being. Although no factors consistently moderated intervention efficacy, preliminary evidence indicated that multicomponent interventions and greater communication with a health care professional were preferred by participants and were associated with superior effects.

CONCLUSIONS

Several consistently cited barriers to intervention uptake and recruitment have emerged, which we recommend future intervention studies address. Preliminary evidence also supports the superior efficacy of multicomponent interventions and interventions that facilitate communication with a health care professional. However, a greater number of appropriately powered clinical trials, including randomized trials with head-to-head comparisons, are needed to enable more confident conclusions regarding which web-based psychosocial oncology interventions work best and for whom.

Language Use in Conversational Agent–Based Health Communication: Systematic Review (Preprint)
Authors: Shan Yi , Ji Meng , Xie Wenxiu , Qian Xiaobo , Li Rongying , Zhang Xiaomin , Hao Tianyong
Published: July 2022

BACKGROUND

Given the growing significance of conversational agents (CAs), researchers have conducted a plethora of relevant studies on various technology- and usability-oriented issues. However, few investigations focus on language use in CA-based health communication to examine its influence on the user perception of CAs and their role in delivering health care services.

OBJECTIVE

This review aims to present the language use of CAs in health care to identify the achievements made and breakthroughs to be realized to inform researchers and more specifically CA designers.

METHODS

This review was conducted by following the protocols of the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) 2020 statement. We first designed the search strategy according to the research aim and then performed the keyword searches in PubMed and ProQuest databases for retrieving relevant publications (n=179). Subsequently, 3 researchers screened and reviewed the publications independently to select studies meeting the predefined selection criteria. Finally, we synthesized and analyzed the eligible articles (N=11) through thematic synthesis.

RESULTS

Among the 11 included publications, 6 deal exclusively with the language use of the CAs studied, and the remaining 5 are only partly related to this topic. The language use of the CAs in these studies can be roughly classified into six themes: (1) personal pronouns, (2) responses to health and lifestyle prompts, (3) strategic wording and rich linguistic resources, (4) a 3-staged conversation framework, (5) human-like well-manipulated conversations, and (6) symbols and images coupled with phrases. These derived themes effectively engaged users in health communication. Meanwhile, we identified substantial room for improvement based on the inconsistent responses of some CAs and their inability to present large volumes of information on safety-critical health and lifestyle prompts.

CONCLUSIONS

This is the first systematic review of language use in CA-based health communication. The results and limitations identified in the 11 included papers can give fresh insights into the design and development, popularization, and research of CA applications. This review can provide practical implications for incorporating positive language use into the design of health CAs and improving their effective language output in health communication. In this way, upgraded CAs will be more capable of handling various health problems particularly in the context of nationwide and even worldwide public health crises.
Appropriateness of Alerts and Physicians’ Responses with a Medication-related Clinical Decision Support System (Preprint)

Published: July 2022

BACKGROUND

Alert fatigue is unavoidable when many useless alerts are generated in response to a small number of useful alerts. It is necessary to increase the effectiveness of the CDSS by understanding physicians’ responses.

OBJECTIVE

To understand the CDSS and physicians’ behavior, this study evaluated the clinical appropriateness of alerts and the corresponding physicians’ responses in a medication-related passive alert system.

METHODS

Data on medication-related orders, alerts, and patients’ electronic medical records (EMR) were analyzed. The analyzed data were generated between August 2019 and June 2020 while the patient was in the emergency department. We evaluated the appropriateness of alerts and physicians’ response for a subset of 382 alert cases and classified them.

RESULTS

We found that only 7.3% of the alerts were clinically appropriate. Regarding physicians’ response appropriateness about alerts, 92.7% were deemed appropriate. In the classification of alerts, only 3.4% of alerts were successfully triggered, and 2.1% alerts were inappropriate in both alert clinical relevance and physician’s response. In this study, the override rate was 93.0%.

CONCLUSIONS

We evaluated the appropriateness of alerts and physicians’ responses through detailed chart review of the medication-related passive alert system. An excessive number of unnecessary alerts are generated because the algorithm operates as a rule base without reflecting the individual condition of the patient. It is important to maximize the value of the CDSS by comprehending physicians' responses.

UNSTRUCTURED

Abstrate:Post-stroke hemiplegia is a common stroke complication of neurological diseases that seriously affect patients' health and quality of life. At present, this chronic rehabilitation disease requires medical intervention and long-term self-management. With the development of the Internet, social media and smartphone applications, the limitations of time and place have been significantly reduced. And even an increasing number of clinical studies have shown that hand function rehabilitation, balance, gait assessment, walking activity and self-management are closely associated with mobile health (mHealth)technology. Thus, as the central factor regulating this rehabilitation system, mHealth technology is a potential target for the prevention and treatment of post-stroke hemiplegia patients; In this review, we discuss the contribution of different mHealth technologies in the application and management of post-stroke hemiplegia. This is worthy of future study.
