The Resolution of the Conceptual Ambiguities that Stymie Public Health
Authors: Ola Paul
Published: March 2023

It has appeared that public health’s goal of “prolonging life and promoting health” requires the eradication of causes for as long as each of the clinical outcomes which must be prevented and cured with precision for the achievement of this noble goal has been seen as the manifestation of a disease with one or more causes depending on whether the theory that accounts for the causation of this disease is mono-causal or multi-causal. But upon constructing biomedical and epidemiological concepts with a method that resolves the conceptual ambiguity that has hitherto surrounded the relationship between mono-causal and multi-causal theories of disease, the outcomes of pathological events were found to be the consequence of the co-manifestation of different diseases. And such outcomes were found to emerge from pathological events only when pathological mechanisms respond to all of such diseases and not merely because of the mere presence of the specific cause or a set of causes which, together, constitute the sufficient cause of any one of them. This result furnishes us with the capacity to resolve other conceptual ambiguities as well as the mode of thinking that should dominate ongoing research if the noble goals of epidemiology and public health will become reality in spite of our inability to eradicate causes.

The purpose of this writing is to provide mental nursing care to Mr Aat RSJ PROF. M. ILDREM. The method of writing is descriptive, namely case studies by conducting nursing care to patients with priority problems of risk of violent behavior with an implementation strategy (SP). Data collection techniques were carried out using interview techniques, observation, and physical examination. Nursing problems found in Mr A is the risk of violent behavior. Suggestions in the management of patients with risky problems of violent behavior are expected that with this study medical staff can build a relationship of trust with clients so that good communication can emerge and clients can express their problems so that the nursing process is achieved, the role of the family to visit clients and take care of current clients live alone and provide sufficient support and attention to the client in order to speed up the client's healing process.
Group Intervention for Goal-Directed Ecological Engagement: Initial Manuscript
Authors: Seger Benedikt T. , Böcker Noemi
Published: March 2023

With the present intervention, we seek to promote individual ecological engagement aimed at reducing one’s negative environmental impact (ecological footprint) or increasing one’s positive impact on societal transformation (ecological handprint). We examined whether a workshop applying goal concretization and action planning techniques to a group setting helps participants achieve their goals and advance in the process of self-regulated behavior change (Bamberg, 2013). Additionally, we investigated the role of social-cognitive and emotional predecessors of ecological engagement based on reasoned action, norm activation, and social identity approaches.Thirty-five people participated each in one of four two-hour workshops, forming an early (experimental) and a late intervention (waiting) group. Three measurements took place, one before the workshops, one between the early and late workshops, and one after the workshops.As expected, goal achievement and implementation intention (i.e., the transition to the most advanced stage of self-regulated behavior change) increased following the workshop, with implementation intention predicting goal achievement. Social norms referring to the workshop group, personal norms, and anger were significant predictors of earlier stage transitions of behavior change (i.e., goal intention and behavioral intention).There is preliminary evidence that this intervention helps individuals achieve their ecological engagement goals by supporting processes of self-regulated behavior change.

CRRESS - Session 4 - Reproducibility and Confidential Data
Authors: Vilhuber Lars
Published: March 2023

What happens to reproducibility when data are confidential or proprietary? Many journals can only ask that detailed access procedures be provided in a ReadMe file, but what mechanisms could be used to conduct computational reproducibility checks on such data? Should authors temporarily share their data with the journal for the purposes of reproducibility verification, even if they are not part of the public data replication package? Is it feasible to use a network of "insiders" to run code provided as part of a data replication package to assess reproducibility? Could a "certified run" be used?

Published: March 2023

Water scarcity has been a major problem of Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC). Different interventions are being attempted to solve this problem including the highly discussed Melamchi Drinking Water supply project. Thus, so rainwater harvesting (RWH) could be a promising approach to satisfy water to some extent. The study has aimed to assess the status of rainwater harvesting practices in KMC and to examine its effectiveness in overcoming the water shortage. A total of 244 households were surveyed covering 32 wards of KMC through random sampling method and semi structured questionnaire forms were laid for the data collection. The annual rainfall data of interval 30 years (1990-2019) of KMC, collected from department of Hydrology and Meteorology for trend analysis. Study revealed 58.2% of households are practicing RWH and among them 63.2% installed RWH system more than five years ago. About 63% of households are practicing roof top harvesting which is found to be more convenient in terms of cost and space. Strong positive correlation (R2=0.876, r=0.942) was observed among amount of water harvested and space occupied by RWH system and was statistically significant (P <0.05). Harvested water is found mainly used for household’s chores, flushing toilets and watering the garden. Majority (95.8%) of respondents did not prefer harvested water for drinking due to its poor water quality, high contamination and bad odor and taste. About 73.2% of the respondents decontaminate harvested water before using and filtration (63%) is found to be most common and effective method for decontamination. Despite of challenges like leakages of storages and gutters, about 87.3% of respondents are strongly satisfied with RWH system as it reduced the municipal water supply bill and provides excess water for the sanitation. Furthermore, the trend analysis showed increment of rainfall in the area by 1.21 mm per annum. Study regarding governmental incentives for the installation of RWH system, availability and accessibility of quality products, training on installation and sanitary management of RWH system would help to shed further light in the aspects of RWH.

Mathematical model of optimization of parameters of production processes of machines for forestry works
Authors: Тітова Л.
Published: March 2023

The article deals with the study of optimization of parameters of production processes of machines for forestry operations. Experimental planning and optimization methods are suitable for computer modeling of production processes of machines for forestry operations. For most of them, it is impossible or impractical to repeatedly conduct full-scale experiments, but a computational experiment can be implemented at the points of the plan. A mathematical model must first be formed that allows, for given combinations of values of the control factors selected at the planning stage of the experiment, to obtain the value of the response function. Then, statistical methods can be used to build a regression model that can be used to plan and study the production process. In particular, it becomes possible to find process parameters that correspond to response function values that are close to optimal.

Mathematical models that describe the main parameters of the forestry process based on the connection of additional equipment at "lagging" operations. The task of assessing the efficiency of the forestry workflow arises.
External rolling of a polygon on a closed curved profile
Authors: Кресан Т.
Published: March 2023

The design of a closed profile in which the curved elements touch a circle is important for designing the centerline of non-circular wheels. When a polygon rolls along such a profile, its center moves in a circle. If both centers (the center of the curved profile and the center of the polygon) are fixed, then you can roll these figures with simultaneous rotation around their centers. One centroid will be a polygon, and the other will be a constructed closed profile.

We consider the rolling of a flat figure in the form of an equilateral polygon along a curved profile. The profile is periodic and is formed by connecting the arc of a symmetric curve in series so that its ends rest on a circle of a given radius. The equation of the curve from which the curved profile is constructed is found provided that the center of the polygon, when it rolls along the profile, must also move in a circle. Rolling occurs in the absence of sliding, so the length of the curve arc is equal to the length of the side of the polygon.

To find the equations of the profile curve, a first-order differential equation is written and an analytical solution is obtained. The parametric equations of the curve are obtained in the polar coordinate system. The limits of change in the angular parameter for constructing a profile element that is part of the curve arc are found. The obtained equations are used to construct curved profiles with different numbers of elements. The mathematical relationship between the radius of the circle along which the center of the polygon moves when it rolls and the radius of the described circle of the polygon itself is established.

The reasons for procrastination in activities related to the writing of dissertations or thesis is relevant to reflect on whether procrastination contributes negatively to achieving academic goals. The aim of this work was to verify the intensity of reasons for procrastination in activities related to the elaboration of dissertations or theses among Brazilian students who are studying stricto sensu postgraduate courses in the business area. The instrument used in this study links the reasons for academic procrastination with fear of success and fear of failure. The sample analyzed Â Â Â Â Â the answers of 288 Brazilian students from the business area. Descriptive analyzes and between-group difference tests were performed. The results show that the certainty of being successful in carrying out the tasks was the reason with the greatest intensity of procrastination during the preparation of dissertations or theses; accounting students present a greater intensity of motives compared to economics students. The study shows that academic procrastination seems to be a dynamic behavior and is related to moments of solitude during which students need to dedicate themselves to write dissertations or theses.
From a Partition to a Barrier
Authors: Bar Doron
Published: March 2023

This article examines gender separation at Jewish holy sites in the State of Israel. From a rare and sporadic phenomenon just a few decades ago, gender serparation at sacred sites has become normative. Segregation is in part directed ‘from above’ by the State of Israel's various religious arms, which fund, organize, and oversee the practice. But it also arises ‘from below’ as a result of the activity of individuals and Haredi groups—both Ashkenazi and Mizrahi—leading to the imposition of increasingly stringent modesty demands on Jewish Israeli women. Gender separation is presented as a religious obligation, and state authorities accept this extreme interpretation as if it represented a monolithic, unchanging religious position.
The Use of ‘Frontier’ and ‘Periphery’ as Symbolic Capital in the Political Campaign to Determine Israel's Settlement Map
Authors: Kidron Anat , Carmi Udi
Published: March 2023

The shape of Israel's settlement map in the first two decades of independence was the outcome of formative political, economic, and social mechanisms. This article focuses on settlement in the mountain region through an examination of the failed settlement efforts in Biranit. We address settlement programs for the mountain region as a reflection of the contest to control the state's bureaucratic character and shape the character of its institutions. From this perspective, efforts to settle the mountain region represent the political contest between state and Zionist bodies over their roles in the transition from Yishuv to state. Special attention is drawn to the use of the terms ‘frontier’ and ‘periphery’ to mobilize political and economic resources both in and outside Israel.
Utilization of artificial lightweight aggregate and unground rice husk ash as internal curing agents to modify performance of super-sulfated cement mortar
Authors: Tran Vu-An , Nguyen Hoang-Anh , Anh Tuan Bui Le , Vo Duy-Hai
Published: March 2023

This study attempts to utilize cold-bonded fly ash based artificial lightweight aggregate (ALWA) and retrieved unground rice husk ash (URHA) as internal curing (IC) agents for improving performance of typical super-sulfaed cement (SSC) mortar fabricated with ternary mixture of 85% slag, 10% gypsum, and only 5% blended Portland cement (PCB). The ALWA partially replacing fine aggregate (FA) at four values of 25, 50, 75, and 100 vol.% was used. For evaluating impact of using hybrid addition of IC agents on performances of SSC mortars, the ALWA amount after being optimized was partially replaced by URHA at four levels of 25, 50, 75, and 100 vol.%. Experimental results showed that, ALWA partially replacing FA up to 50 vol.% led to the SSC mortars with remarkably increased workability and uncompromised impacts on the strengths and durability. Addition of URHA partially replacing ALWA significantly improved the fresh properties and flexural strength but it negatively impacted the durability performances of the resultant SSC mortars in terms of increased water absorption, decreased UPV, and increased drying shrinkage.
A study on the probabilistic safety assessment of the truss structure designed by the LRFD code
Authors: Doan Nhu Son
Published: March 2023

The probabilistic analyses provide a more rational approach for the safety assessment of structures since they consider the uncertainties in the calculations. Consequently, the design specifications of engineering structures are gradually transformed from the allowable stress design to the reliability-based specifications such as load and resistance factors design (LRFD) or partial safety factor design. The partial safety factors and the load andresistance factors provided in the reliability-based design codes are successfully determined from probabilistic frameworks. However, these specifications are classified into semi-probabilistic-based codes because no probabilistic analysis is required in the design practice. Thus, the actual reliability index of the design solutions maynot be as close to the target value as expected. This study employs the fully probabilistic analysis as an additional analysis to examine the reliability index of an LRFD-based design of the truss structure. A planar truss,which is designed following the semi-probabilistic code, is thoroughly examined. Several feasible sections are first designed using the LRFD code. Then, the actual reliability indexes of truss structures are evaluated to check if they meet the target reliability index specified in the reliability-based design codes. The tension and compression members concerning the strength limit state and the maximum deflection presenting for service ability are investigated as representative performances. The results of the probabilistic analyses indicate thatthe reliability indexes for the strength limit state are higher than the target value stipulated in the LRFD code. Compared to the tension members, more redundancy in terms of reliability index is observed for compression elements, although they are both designed at the limit state. Moreover, the reliability index obtained for theserviceability limit state is strongly dependent on the component (i.e., floor or roof) where the truss is utilized.
Pemekaran sebagai arena konflik Ekonomi: Studi kasus Pada rencana pemekaran Provinsi Luwu Raya

Published: March 2023

Research to answer the question of why pemekaran in Luwu Raya is so complex. The study was conducted in Luwu Raya, South Sulawesi Province. Using qualitative methods with data collection techniques in the form of observation and in-depth interviews. Then analyze the data by elaborating on the results of interviews and secondary data in the form of official government reports (BPS). The results showed that the dynamics and complexity of pemekaran took place in Luwu due to the tug-of-war of the local political elite. Elite tug-of-war takes place in a very open arena, involving various local elites, including political elites and bureaucratic elites. The tug-of-war of the local elite finally makes the agenda of pemekaran that has been normatively determined to be absent from its proper schedule. Field findings also confirm that the division is not only constrained in technical terms. As much is seen from an administrative perspective, but in a political perspective there is something more than that. The author sees it as a matter of local politics. Therefore, the main argument in this study is that the tug-of-war between local political elites is the main cause of the mandate of the pemekaran process that took place in Luwu Raya.

Patterns in the Press Releases of Trade Unions: How to Use Structural Topic Models in the Field of Industrial Relations
Authors: Bender Benedikt , Bruinsma Bastiaan
Published: March 2023

Quantitative text analysis and the use of large data sets have received only limited attention in the field of Industrial Relations. This is unfortunate, given the variety of opportunities and possibilities these methods can address. We demonstrate the use of one promising technique of quantitative text analysis – the Structural Topic Model (STM) – to test the Insider-Outsider theory. This technique allowed us to find underlying topics in a text corpus of nearly 2,000 German trade union press releases (from 2000 to 2014). We provide a step-by-step overview of how to use STM since we see this method as useful to the future of research in the field of Industrial Relations. Until now the methodological publications regarding STM mostly focus on the mathematics of the method and provide only aminimal discussion of their implementation. Instead, we provide a practical application of STM and apply this method to one of the most prominent theories in the field of Industrial Relations. Contrary to the original Insider-Outsider arguments, but in line with the current state of research, we show that unions do in fact use topics within their press releases which are relevant for both Insider and Outsider groups.

Published: March 2023

The list of Sustainable Development Goals created by the United Nations include good health and well-being as one of its primary objectives. Pollution is a concern worldwide, and pollution levels inside buildings (homes or workplaces) can be higher than outdoors. To alleviate this problem and improve air quality, ornamental plants can be used. This paper presents the application of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to develop a system called P4L, an acronym for “Plants for Life”. The objective of P4L is the automated care of potted plants to improve air quality and make the indoor environments of a building healthier. This IoT-based system (IoTS) has been developed through low-cost Arduino-compatible components. In addition, the Test-Driven Development Methodology for IoT-based Systems (TDDM4IoTS) has been used to guide P4L development. In fact, this article shows the result of the application of this methodology (phase by phase), with the help of the Test-Driven Development Tool for IoT-based Systems (TDDT4IoTS), which supports the aforementioned methodology, to develop P4L. To validate the methodology, we conducted a survey among developers that have used it, the results of which show that it is efficient and covers all aspects of IoTS development.

BACKGROUND: Ischemic heart disease is a pathological chronic and acute condition, which is provoked by insufficient blood supply or its complete cessation. To reduce the number of patients, all approaches and studies that can positively affect the prevention and treatment of the disease are important. This is very important in monitoring and treating diseases of all systems and organs, especially in diseases of the cardiovascular system. The aim of our work was to elucidate the relationship between the rheological status of blood, vascular changes and intracardiac hemodynamics in heart failure in coronary artery disease patients with different functional classes. OBJECTIVES: The aim of our work was to elucidate the relationship between the rheological status of blood, vascular changes and intracardiac hemodynamics in heart failure in coronary artery disease patients with different functionalclasses. METHODS: We examined 76 men and women patients with coronary artery disease - I–IV functional class (by New York Heart Association Functional Classification NYHA)), mean age - 59.2±4 years. The control group consisted of 20 apparently healthy volunteers (Woman: Man –1:1), whose average age was 52±3 years. Representatives of the control group did not take any medication during the study period and were apparently healthy. The electrocardiogram of the subjects in the control group corresponded to the norm. All subjects underwent clinical and laboratory studies in a standard way: to describe the rheological status of blood, the erythrocyte aggregability index (EAI), erythrocyte deformability index (EDI), and plasma viscosity were determined; to assess vascular changes - resistance index of resistive arteries (RIRA); to study intracardiac hemodynamics, echocardiology was performed according to the recommendations proposed by the American Association of Physicians. RESULTS: Rheological changes are present from the very beginning of the disease and progress along with the severity of the disease. Therefore, it is possible to assess the severity of the disease based on rheological disorders, which can precede the onset of ischemic heart disease. The vascular status resistance index increases in the early stages of the disease, with I functional class - RIRA increased by 46%. The cardiac index, which determines the adequacy of the global perfusion pressure, is the main indicator of hemodynamics and is negatively related to the increase in erythrocyte aggregation, although this indicator turned out to be statistically unreliable. CONCLUSION: The interpretation of our data will allow us to better understand the pathogenesis of heart failure, as well as recommend a list of tests, and methods that were discussed in the article to assess the clinical condition of patients. Continuing research in the same direction, we believe that we will be able to make adjustments to research methods and to the algorithm for drug therapy

Published: March 2023

Evaluating the factors affecting customer value in department stores will shed light on the motivations of customers when choosing department stores, which will help department stores to improve their business performance and competitiveness. This paper applies the fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method to empirically analyze the determinants of customer value at department stores in Taiwan. This study first found the major factors influencing customer value at department stores in Taiwan through a review of the literature and expert interviews, and these factors consisted of four evaluation dimensions and 20 evaluation criteria. An empirical investigation was then conducted through an AHP expert questionnaire survey. The main findings of this paper were as follows: (1) “Physical environment” was the most important evaluation dimension for customer value at department stores in Taiwan. (2) The four leading factors influencing customer value in department stores were “roomy and comfortable space,” “responsive customer service,” “planning of lines of movement at counters,” and “parking area and facilities.” This study also performed further discussion of the four evaluation criteria as a reference for department stores that wish to raise their competitiveness.
Frequency, facilitators, and barriers for range of motion to prevent shoulder contracture in brachial plexus birth injury: A pilot study
Authors: Wingrat Jennifer , Elrick Matthew J.
Published: March 2023

PURPOSE: This pilot study investigated the efficacy of passive range of motion (PROM) during the first year of life to prevent development of shoulder contractures in children with brachial plexus birth injury (BPBI) and identified facilitators and barriers to caregiver adherence with daily PROM. METHODS: Five caregivers of children with upper trunk BPBI participated in retrospective interviews about the frequency with which they performed PROM during their child’s first year of life including facilitators and barriers to daily adherence. Medical records were reviewed for documentation of caregiver-reported adherence and documented evidence of shoulder contracture by age one. RESULTS: Three of the five children had documented shoulder contractures; all three had delayed initiation or inconsistent PROM in the first year of life. Two without shoulder contractures received consistent PROM throughout the first year of life. Making PROM part of the daily routine was a facilitator to adherence while family contextual factors were barriers. CONCLUSION: Absence of shoulder contracture may be related to consistent PROM throughout the first year of life; decreased frequency of PROM after the first month of life did not increase the risk of shoulder contracture. Consideration of family routines and context may facilitate adherence with PROM.

This scientific work describes and analyzes evangelism according to the Acts of the Apostles on the growth of the Pentecostal church congregation in Indonesia, Gedong Kuning, Yogyakarta. Findings, the researchers used the data obtained from the three hypotheses above by testing them out. With results like this: First, the variables X1 to Y with the value obtained is 0.738 where the number of respondents is 50. Based on the r table where it is known that for N = 50 r the number is 0.361. From the calculation, it is known that the r table is 0.738 and 0361 is r table. The hypothesis is accepted that there is an influence of the role of evangelism with mortgages. on the growth of the Yogyakarta Gedongkuning Pentecostal church. Based on the results of the calculation of the correlation coefficient between the X1 variable and the Y variable, it is 0.738 or 22, 7% categorized in the interpretation of the correlation coefficient is included in the low category which has a significant effect. Second, the independent variable and the dependent variable Y X2 are obtained with a value of 0.750 where the number of respondents is 50. Based on the calculation of the correlation coefficient between the X2 variable and the Y variable, it is 36% which when considered in the standard guidelines for interpretation of the correlation coefficient is included in the low category which has a significant effect.

Occupation from a perspective of complementarity - Part 1 - Background to the development of a concept
Authors: Turnbull David , Barnard Ross
Published: March 2023

‘Occupation’ is the focal point of inquiry in occupational science. In agreement with a recent article by Mary Lawlor, we consider that a complementary perspective is required in that discipline, to assist in its development. The current article provides background that is vital if occupation is to be understood from a perspective of complementarity. We turn in particular to Neils Bohr's (1948) account of complementarity in the context of physics, which he suggested has applications in disciplines beyond physics. At the core of the matter is the question: what is the phenomenon? Complementarity is understood as a relation between different phenomena, rather than between alternative representations of the same phenomenon. We discuss parallels in ancient Chinese philosophy in order to illustrate that complementarity goes beyond Western science and its typical worldviews. We also introduce Hussel’s concept of intersubjectivity as a condition for the possibility that complementarity between phenomena can be discussed both in physics and in occupational science. In other words, the very notion of complementarity between phenomena relies on intersubjectivity. This article - Part 1 - paves the way for developing a more complete account in relation to occupational science in Part 2.

In implementing His plan in the effort to redeem the creations that are in His image, God (YHWH) has regulations, especially regarding leadership. However, this leader is very active in helping God plan to lead His people to the pinnacle of the work of redemption. Therefore, God so chooses and determines a leader in detail according to His own perspective from generation to generation, from the Old Testament to the New Testament, from the first century to the 21st century, regeneration always occurs. In the regeneration of the ecological system, leadership is needed in every church, especially in rural areas. A simple implementation is the regeneration of leadership ecology in the local church of GBT in Siliragung District, Banyuwangi Regency, East Java. Leadership ecology has been carried out since the initial pioneering of the church continuously starting from 1972 to 2022. In regenerating leaders, of course, they must have the expected pattern and according to the Bible that represents the general view. Conditions are put forward to recruit potential leaders who are expected to be in accordance with the expectations of God and the church in great detail, so that the church in carrying out the mission of the Lord Jesus does not fail and continues to be carried out perfectly . Indeed, there are several things that need to be considered when becoming a leader or in regenerating new leaders with an ecological system, so that it is efficient and the conditions proposed and the mechanism for regeneration of leadership ecology can run well and produce leaders with strong character and integrity in accordance with expectations. God's church.
