Published: June 2021

Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has created exceptional health and economic uncertainty for Ohioans in 2020. In the spring of 2020, the state commissioned the Ohio COVID-19 Survey (OCS) to ask residential Ohio adults about how the pandemic was affecting them. The purpose of this research is to provide state leadership with real-time information about the effects of the pandemic and concurrent recession on Ohio households.Methods: The OCS is a special supplement to the Ohio Medicaid Assessment Survey (OMAS), a stratified random digit dial, cell phone and landline telephone survey. This study includes data collected weekly between April 20, 2020, and August 24, 2020. We conducted descriptive time-series analysis of the survey data and provided updates to the state's COVID-19 Response Team throughout the survey period.Results: Preliminary findings from the OCS reflect 3 themes among respondents: 1) elevated levels of concern over health and household economics; 2) disproportionate effects that exacerbate existing inequities; and 3) majority adjustment to "new normal" and acceptance of public health guidelines .Conclusion: Preliminary findings indicate that groups that were struggling before the pandemic have faced the biggest challenges with regard to health and household economics since it began. Data from the OCS enabled us to provide real-time analysis to state leadership regarding Ohioans' experience during the first 6 months of the COVID-19 pandemic. Further analysis and integration of additional data will allow us to provide deeper insights as Ohio seeks to move into recovery.

Published: June 2021

Background: In 2016, Sight for All United (SFAU) was founded in the Mahoning Valley of Ohio with the mission of improving access to care and maximizing the visual potential of the underserved. Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted on patients served by SFAU from January 2016 through August 2020. Socioeconomic information, type of service, cost, and dollar amount paid were collected for patients. The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics and mapped with Esri ArcGIS. Results: A total of 1327 patients received assistance through the medical assistance and school vision programs. In the medical assistance program, 222 patients (mean age 50 years, 57% female) completed applications and 37% (83 patients) were in a household of 3 or more people. Median yearly income was $18 504, 134% above the federal poverty level by household size. The most common surgical services were cataract surgery (101) and vitreoretinal care (17). The most common medical services were eye exams (79) and spectacles (76). Estimated value of medical services provided was $367 249; actual cost was $93 746. The school vision program provided 1105 eye exams, 1514 pairs of spectacles, and 1 cataract surgery with an estimated value of $133 692. Conclusion: Sight for All United provided $500 941 of vision services to its patients since 2016 while dispersing less than $100 000 of donated dollars through collaboration with eye care providers, community resources, and national foun-dations. This study demonstrates the impact vision foundations managed by local eye care providers can have on the needs in their community in a cost-effective and efficient way.

Authors: Zouheyr Dekali , Lotfi Baghli , Abdelmadjid Boumediene
Published: June 2021

This paper presents the design, modeling, simulation and the experimental implementation of a 1.5 kW relatively low-cost wind energy conversion system (WECS) based on the double fed induction generator (DFIG) configuration. In the preliminary experiments, we test the DFIG power control under fixe speed by applying the vector control principle, then we insert the physical emulator presented in the controlled DC motor in order to simulate the static-dynamic behaviors of a real wind turbine with the use of the Tip Speed Ratio TSR based MPPT algorithm to extract the maximum available power on the emulator. The proposed structure is simulated using MATLAB Simulink environment, the obtained results are validated experimentally on our laboratory setup. We also develop an application with MATLAB AppDesigner that calculates the operating point of our system at steady state and visualize the power transfer, current, voltage and electromagnetic torque values of the DFIG and the DC motor before starting the stimulation or the experimental manipulation. The MPPT, the DC motor control and the DFIG power control algorithms are implanted in C, embedded on a dSPACE DS1104 control board. The obtained results confirm the reliability of the proposed WECS to manage all the probable operating modes, also the effectiveness of the physical simulator in the role of wind turbine emulation.
Contribution of Multilevel Inverters in Improving Electrical Energy Quality: Study and Analysis
Authors: Rezini Saliha , Azzouz Zin-Eddine
Published: June 2021

The work proposed in this paper concerns the study of harmonic pollution generated by static converters, particularly inverters, which largely contributes to the degradation of the supplied electrical energy quality. So, we studied in first the EMC of the conventional two-level inverter to highlight the harmful pollution of this kind of converter. We then looked at multi-level inverters to characterize their degree of pollution according to their number of levels in order to propose practical solutions for industrial applications. Thus, we considered three structures of multi-level inverters namely: a diode clamped inverter, a flying capacitor clamped inverter and a cascaded h-bridge inverter. At the end of this study, we retain that these three structures make it possible to obtain a waveform of the output voltage close to the sinusoidal form. The results of simulation obtained and compared to the STD international standard templates, also allowed us to conclude that among the three structures studied the cascaded h-bridge inverter is the most interesting from the electrical energy quality point of view. In addition, this converter has the advantage of owning a reduced number of switches which results in a weight and a cost, better than those of the other two studied inverters.

Non-Tender Huge Abdominal Mass in an Adolescent
Authors: Kiran Shashi , Jabri Shiekha S , Razek Yasser A , Devi Meka N
Published: June 2021

Paraovarian cysts constitute about 10% of all adnexal masses in females and occur most commonly in the third and fourth decades of life. These cysts are benign and usually uncommon in adolescence. Such cysts pose a diagnostic challenge while distinguishing them from ovarian cysts clinically and during radiological investigations. We report a rare case of a 13-year-old female patient with bilateral paraovarian cysts, including a giant cyst in right mesosalpinx presenting to Sohar hospital, Oman in 2018. The definitive origin of the huge mass on the right side of abdominal cavity could not be established in the current case despite contrast enhanced computerized tomography. It was only on laparoscopic exploration that this mass was identified as a giant paraovarian cyst. Both the giant cyst and a smaller paraovarian cyst on the left side were enucleated with minimally invasive surgery while preserving the fertility of the patient. Only one other similar case of bilateral paraovarian cysts in an adolescent, including a giant cyst managed with laparoscopy, has been documented previously.

Authors: Al-Hinai Abdulhamid , Al-Murshedi Fathiya , Al-Nabhani Dana , Al-Thihli Khalid
Published: June 2021

Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) secretion is a recognisable complication of acute porphyria. We report a nine-year-old female patient with hereditary tyrosinaemia type 1 and poor adherence to nitisinone therapy who presented with acute abdominal pain, vomiting and lethargy at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, Muscat, Oman in 2016. She subsequently developed generalised tonic-clonic seizures attributable to severe hyponatremia that met the diagnostic criteria of SIADH. The acute porphyria screen also appeared positive. The patient responded well to fluid restriction and was discharged home without immediate neurological sequelae. Although acute porphyria is also a recognised complication of uncontrolled tyrosinaemia type 1, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, no patient with tyrosinaemia type 1 has been reported to present with SIADH.

A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF IDEOLOGICAL CONSTRUCTIONS EMBEDDED IN ENGLISH TEXTBOOKS: A CRITICAL DISCOURSE PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Afzal Tahir , Chishti Muhammad Ilyas , Jadoon Atta Ur Rehman , Mushtaq Hammad
Published: June 2021

Purpose of the study: The subject study aims at investigating the construction of diverse ideologies embedded within English textbooks used in Pakistani settings at the elementary level. The entire study is based on a comparative analysis of English textbooks of Punjab Textbook Board (PTB) and Oxford University Press (OUP) and employs a critical discourse lens for a comprehensive analysis.

Methodology: Based on purposeful sampling, the study hinges on insights of Critical Discourse Studies. Out of various models available in CDA, the study employs Fairclough's Three-Dimensional Model for an extensive qualitative analysis of the selected texts as it is more suited to the dynamics of the subject study. Both micro and macro dimensions of the model were employed for an enriched analysis.

Main Findings: Both textbooks aimed at infusing different cultural and ideological constructions within students. Exercise of power supplemented by a specific religious perspective was also witnessed in constructions of diverse ideologies. The current study hinted at a deliberate effort on the part of the government to preserve religious, national, political, and societal ideologies through PTB English textbooks. On the other hand, OUP English textbooks created consent among the students to accept a specific culture and its embedded ideologies.

Applications of this study: The study can be a useful resource for researchers investigating multiple ideologies in textbooks. Critical discourse examination of both textbooks entails ample advice for textbook developers, authors, and syllabus designers to consider the ideological impacts of the textbooks while devising an all-encompassing and comprehensive curriculum to avoid any conflict at later stages.

Novelty/Originality of this study: Diverse dimensions of textbook analysis have already been conducted, but examination of textbooks through a critical discourse lens is indeed a novel dimension that will not only facilitate the reader but also open up new avenues of research for textbook developers and curriculum designers. Examination of diverse ideological construction is indeed an interesting inquiry.

A PERDA DA AUTORIDADE DO NARRADOR COMO RECURSO FORMAL NA REPRESENTAÇÃO DA VIOLÊNCIA EM K. – RELATO DE UMA BUSCA, DE BERNARDO KUCINSKI
Authors: Lima Freire Alves Adão Marcelo
Published: June 2021

Este artigo defende a hipótese de que a obra K. – relato de uma busca, de Bernardo Kucinski, promove a perda da autoridade do narrador onisciente como recurso formal na representação da violência do regime militar de 1964-1985. Apontamos dois elementos estruturantes na obra: a autoridade do narrador e o teor testemunhal do romance. Para tanto, realizamos a verificação dos recursos estéticos utilizados na obra. A fim de compreender a relação entre autoridade, violência e poder, discutimos as ideias de Arendt (2016, 2020), Benjamin (1986) e Agamben (2004). Em interlocução com Seligmann-Silva (2008, 2010), cunhamos o conceito de “teor testemunhal” para entender a relação entre testemunho e ficção. Benjamin (2012) possibilitou uma leitura a contrapelo da narrativa, ao tempo em que também permitiu um olhar crítico sobre a história do progresso como acúmulo de catástrofes. Na análise do romance, verificamos que a perda da autoridade do narrador externo provoca uma percepção renovada das cenas de violências, pois, ao acompanhar a apresentação dos fatos sob a lente dos narradores em primeira pessoa, o leitor tem uma visão “de dentro” dos acontecimentos. A alternância de foco narrativo – ora externo, ora interno – também promove uma perspectiva multifacetada da representação da violência.

Agenda Setting Redaksi RCTI Menyikapi Kontroversi Istilah ‘New Normal’ Dalam Mengatasi Pandemi Covid-19
Authors: Kurniawan Herik Kurniawan
Published: June 2021

When the Indonesian government declared the Covid-19 pandemic, various efforts were made to contain the spread of the virus. The main effort is to change people's lifestyle that is safe from transmission of the virus because drugs and vaccines have not been found. The term that was coined by the government for this policy policy is 'new normal'. The government has carried out massive socialization through all its elements, including the media. The RCTI editorial team, through its news bulletin program, also socialized the government's efforts. As the editor of the media, RCTI makes new normal policies as part of the news management agenda. When controversy arises regarding the understanding of the term 'new normal', the RCTI editorial team consistently explains the new life habits that must be followed to prevent the spread of Covid-19. In the context of news related to the Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia, controversy is not the focus of news, because it is not important to the public, so it is only used as ordinary news. This research uses qualitative methods with a content analysis approach. RCTI editors are more focused on the fundamental issue, namely how the pandemic can be ended.

Published: June 2021

This study aimed to examine trust in information provided by public authorities and financial measures put in place to address the impact of COVID-19. Using a cross-national approach among four Western countries; the United States of America, Norway, Australia, and the United Kingdom provides an analysis of responses related to trust and how they were associated with age group, gender, education level, employment status, size of place of residence, infection sta-tus, and social media use. When controlling for all included variables in logistic regression analyses, the likelihood of having trust in the public authorities’ information was higher for women, those with higher levels of education, and those living in urban areas. Being infected with the coronavirus, and spending more time daily on social media was associated with lower likelihood reporting trust in information. Although policies implemented to respond to eco-nomic concerns varied cross-nationally, higher age, identifying as female, being employed, liv-ing in a city, and lower levels of social media usage were associated with higher likelihood of trusting in the financial measures put in place to counteract the economic effects of COVID-19.

Published: June 2021

Microfluidic lab-on-chip devices are widely being developed for chemical and biological studies. One of the most commonly used types of these chips is perfusion microwells for culturing multicellular spheroids. The main challenge in such systems is the formation of substantial necrotic and hypoxic zones within the cultured spheroids. Herein, we propose a novel acoustofluidic integrated platform to tackle this bottleneck problem. We show that such an approach enhances cell viability and shrinks necrotic and hypoxic zones in these spheroid-on-a-chip platforms without the need to increase the flow rate, leading to a significant reduction in costly reagents' consumption. Proof-of-concept, designing procedures, and finite element numerical simulation are discussed in details. Also, the effects of acoustic and hydrodynamic parameters on the cultured cells are investigated. The results show that by increasing acoustic boundary displacement amplitude (d0), the spheroid’s proliferating zone enlarges greatly. Moreover, it is shown that by implementing d0=0.5 nm, the required flow rate to maintain the necrotic zone below 13% will be decreased 12 times compared to non-acoustic chips.
Neurotherapeutics for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): a Review
Authors: Rubia Katya , Westwood Samuel , Aggensteiner Pascal-M. , Brandeis Daniel
Published: June 2021

This review focuses on the evidence for neurotherapeutics for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). EEG-Neurofeedback has been tested for about 45 years with latest meta-analyses of randomised controlled trials (RCT) showing small/medium effects compared to non-active controls only. Three small studies piloted neurofeedback of frontal activations in ADHD using functional magnetic resonance imaging or near-infrared spectroscopy, finding no superior effects over control conditions. Brain stimulation has been applied to ADHD using mostly repetitive transcranial magnetic and direct current stimulation (rTMS/tDCS). rTMS has shown mostly negative findings on improving cognition or symptoms. Meta-analyses of tDCS studies targeting mostly dorsolateral prefrontal cortex show small effects on cognitive improvements with only two out of three studies showing clinical improvements. Trigeminal nerve stimulation has shown to improve ADHD symptoms with medium effect in one RCT. Modern neurotherapeutics are attractive due to their relative safety and potential neuroplastic effects. However, they need to be thoroughly tested for clinical and cognitive efficacy across settings and beyond core symptoms and for their potential for individualised treatment.
An Experiential Evaluation of Arka Dhyana (Intuitive Meditation) from the Perspective of HeartMath and the Theory of the Six Main Levels of Consciousness
Authors: Lindhard Tina , Hermann Caroll , Edwards Stephen D.
Published: June 2021

An introductory course of Arka Dhyana, also known as Intuitive Meditation (IM), consisting of five sessions, was offered to an international audience via Zoom technology. Participants were shown how to connect to their deeper self, essence or soul by bringing their I-ego-awareness from the thinking mind, often associated with the frontal part of the brain, to 19 energetic stations in the body including the heart centre. In this limited study, evaluation was both process and outcome orientated and included HeartMath (HM) Inner Balance or emWave2 electronic technology to measure mean coherence and achievement before and after each session. A highly significant increase in both coherence and achievement in six participants was found, which was also reflected in a reported increase in wellbeing related to feelings in qualitative statements indicating changes in levels of consciousness and individual transformative experiences as predicted by the Theory of the Six Main Levels of Consciousness.
A Global Meta-Analysis for Estimating Local Ecosystem Service Value Functions

Published: June 2021

Meta-analysis has increasingly been used to synthesize the ecosystem services literature, with some testing of the use of such analyses to transfer benefits. These are typically based on local primary studies. However, meta-analyses associated with ecosystem services are a potentially powerful tool for transferring benefits, especially for environmental assets for which no primary studies are available. In this study we use the Ecosystem Service Valuation Database (ESVD), which brings together 1350 value estimates from more than 320 studies around the world, to estimate meta-regression functions for provisioning, regulating & maintenance and cultural ecosystem services across 12 biomes. We tested the reliability of these meta-regression functions and found that even using variables with high explanatory power, transfer errors could still be large. We show that meta-analytic transfer performs better than simple value transfer and, in addition, that local meta-analytical transfer (i.e. based on local explanatory variable values) provides more reliable estimates than global meta-analytical transfer (i.e. based on mean global explanatory variable values). Thus, we conclude that when taking into account the characteristics of the study area under analysis, including explanatory variables such as income, population density and protection status, we can determine the value of ecosystem services with greater accuracy.
Substrate-Solvent Crosstalk – Effects on Reaction Kinetics and Product Selectivity in Olefin Oxidation Catalysis
Authors: Sales Rita N. , Callear Sam K. , Vaz Pedro D. , Nunes Carla D.
Published: June 2021

In this work we explored how solvents can affect olefin oxidation reactions catalyzed by MCM-bpy-Mo catalysts and whether their control can be made with those players. The results of this study evidenced that polar and apolar aprotic solvents modulated the reactions in different ways. Experimental data showed that acetonitrile (aprotic polar) could hinder largely the reaction rate whereas toluene (aprotic apolar) did not. In both cases product selectivity at isoconversion was not affected. Further insights were obtained by means of neutron diffraction experiments, which confirmed the kinetic data allowing to propose a model based on substrate-solvent crosstalk by means of hydrogen bonding. In addition, the model was also validated in the ring-opening reaction (overoxidation) of styrene oxide towards benzaldehyde, which progressed when toluene was the solvent (reaching 31% styrene oxide conversion) but was strongly hindered when acetonitrile was used instead (reaching only 7% conversion), due to the establishment of H-bonds in the latter. Although this model was confirmed and validated for olefin oxidation reactions, it can be envisaged that it may also be applied to other catalytic reaction systems where reaction control is critical, while widening its use.

Published: June 2021

The prominent cultivation of lemongrass relies on the pharmacological incentives of its essential oil. The lemongrass essential oil (LEO) has a significant amount of citral (mixture of geranial and neral), isoneral, isogeranial, geraniol, geranyl acetate, citronellal, citronellol, germacrene-D, and elemol in addition to numerous other bioactive compounds. These components confer various medicinal activities to LEO including antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral, anticancer, and antioxidant properties. These attributes are commercially exploited in pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and food preservations industries. Furthermore, the employment of LEO in the treatment of cancer opens a new vista in the field of therapeutics. Although different LEO components have shown promising anticancer activities in vitro, these effects have not been assessed yet in humans. Further studies on the anticancer mechanisms exerted by lemongrass components are required. The present review intends to provide a timely discussion on the relevance of lemongrass extracts in cancer and health treatment, and in food industry applications.
Efficacy Modeling of New Multi-Functional Benzophenone-Based System for Free-Radical/Cationic Hybrid Photopolymerization Using 405 nm LED
Authors: Lin Jui-Teng , Lalevee Jacques
Published: June 2021

This article presents, for the first time, the kinetics and the general conversion features of a 3-component system, BT(BC)/iodonium/Amine, based on proposed mechanism of Liu et al, for both free radical polymerization (FRP) of acrylates and the free radical promoted cationic polymerization (CP) of epoxides using the new multi-functional initiator of benzophenone–triphenylamine (BT). The additives, iodonium and EDB, have the dual function of (i) regeneration BT and (ii) produce of extra radicals for improved FRP and CP. Analytic formulas are developed to explore the new features including: (i) the conversion efficacy (CE) of FRP is an increasing function of the light intensity, the effective absorption coefficient, and the concentration sum of each of the components, BT, Iod, amine, for transient state. However, CE at steady-state is independent to the light intensity; (ii) the trifunctional hybrid structures of BT3 leads to larger light absorption than other types of BT; it also provides more active sites for the H-abstraction in the presence of EDB, leading to high CE; (iii) the efficacy of FRP is an increasing function of the amine (EDB) concentration, in contrast to that of CP having an opposite dependence; (iv) the consumption rate of BT3 in the BT3/ Iod/EDB system is slower than that of the BT3/Iod system due to photoredox catalytic cycle, and the larger initiator regeneration (RGE) in the three-component system. A comprehensive model is also proposed that the CE (for both FRP and CP) is governed by (NjKjbI), whereas more complex formulas are developed; where Kj is an effective rate constant proportional to the electron transfer quantum yield, and the combined effects of other coupling rate constants; b is an effective absorption coefficient given by the light absorption and excited state quantum yield.
