Research Ethics for Twenty-First Century LIS Professionals
Authors: Begum Khaiser Jahan , Balachandran Chikku
Published: June 2021

Research in several disciplines is gaining importance in the 21st century. In India, agencies like University Grant Commission (UGC) assessing the performance of the faculty based on the Academic Performance Index (API). Irrespective of the aptitude, ability and interest in research, aspiring researchers are pushing themselves to publish research papers and also are aiming to do Ph.D. Therefore there is sudden proliferation in number of journal publications and Ph.Ds. But the most important part of maintaining international standards in publishing research papers and doing Ph.D. is not taken seriously. In fact, researchers are failing to maintain good research standards and ethics in research. This has resulted in misconduct both at individual level and at the organisational level. There are guidelines available for doing good research. If these guidelines are followed systematically along with general ethical principles, the research performance will be good and will result in avoiding data falsification, fabrication and redundant publications. Keeping these points in mind the authors have elaborately discussed research ethics for 21st century in general and LIS professional in particular.

Published: June 2021

The purpose of this paper is to assess the use of electronic information resources and facilities among Engineering Scholars in Private Universities in Nigeria using Bells University of Technology, Ota, Nigeria as a Case Study. Scientific investigation involves careful and proper adoption of research design, use of standardized tools and texts in identifying adequate sample techniques for data analysis. In this survey a questionnaire was adapted, tested and employed to collect primary data of academics from Mechanical, Mechatronics, Biomedical, Telecommunications, Electrical-electronics and Computer engineering Departments of Bells University of Technology, Ota Ogun State, Nigeria. In all, a total of forty-two faculty members, associate and research staff participated from the college of Engineering. The questionnaires were distributed among forty-two faculty members from the six departments of the college of engineering, out of which 40 were returned and found to be valid, making a response rate 95.23%. Among the 40 respondents, 2 faculties do not use electronic information resources. Thus, response rate is reduced to 38 (95.00%). In addition individual interview and observation methods were also used to collect the required information. The results correspond with previous studies conducted in other countries. The Engineers still stick to the printed information sources, but they pay good attention to electronic resources. Most of them have access to computer and internet at the office and home. They are regular users of a variety of electronic technologies. Although faced with some challenges. Thus, the applied scientists perceive that modern technology made their work easier. The study focused only on the engineering faculty in the first private university of technology in Nigeria. The survey could be replicated among other faculties such as humanities and or in other private universities in Nigeria and on a larger sample for generalization. Keeping in view the positive trend of engineering towards modern technology, universities and libraries should be adequately funded to provide electronic resources and facilities in the science and applied science discipline. Special training programmes for engineering scholars should also be organized. This is the first study on this topic in a private university of technology in Nigeria. The results can also be used to design services and facilities in academic libraries and information centers in private universities and universities of technology in Nigeria and in other developing countries.

On reflection: The role, mode and medium of the reflective component in practice as research
Authors: Green Michael Cawood , Williams Tony
Published: June 2021

A key criterion in the recognition of practice as research is the inclusion of some form of critical self-reflection as a component of the creative project. This requirement that some form of complementary/supplementary discourse is necessary to establish the research status of creative practice is currently the subject of scrutiny and contestation across a number of disciplines. Noting how much work has been done in this area within the doctoral degree in Creative Writing in Australia, this paper explores some of the problematic areas in the formal recognition of practice as research within the UK’s research structures and processes. It argues that the scholarly rubric expected of the reflective component is not always the most appropriate medium through which creative work may be recognised as research.

It considers tensions implicit in the dual role of supplementary discourses: that of documenting practice for institutional purposes and that of articulating and generating new knowledge about practice. The disciplinary placing of Creative Writing in the UK context also complicates its relation to other forms of practice as research. This paper argues that the recognition of a wider range of modes and media for supplementary discourses would allow the generation of new and different knowledge about creative practice, and make that knowledge differently available to researchers.
Essaying as method: Risky accounts and composing collectives
Authors: Carlin David
Published: June 2021

This essay moves between the performative, the discursive and the ethnographic to compose an argument about how essaying as method, and then collective essaying as method, might contribute to new approaches to world-making. It begins with an essay-within-an-essay that takes as its object of pressure the contemporary context of biophysical crisis that has been called the Anthropocene, which soon becomes entangled with another pair of objects: the image on the front of a vintage jigsaw set and the essayist’s affective response to that image. Thereafter it brings in Latour’s concept of the ‘risky account’ to argue for essaying as a reflexively constructed mode of making accounts of the world. The experimental nature of essaying is extrapolated into a collective context, with a report on a transcultural creative writing workshop conducted as part of a residency program in the Philippines. The essay proposes and teases out the concept of ‘collective essaying’. It circles back to look at world making with Haraway’s invocation of sympoesis as a method for ‘worlding-with, in company’ (Haraway 2015), and asks how collective essaying might be considered in this light.

El presente artículo es una aproximación a la memoria intergeneracional de infancias y a la posmemoria de niños y niñas de distintas generaciones, que han vivido en el nordeste antioqueño (Antioquia - Colombia). Busca aportar a la pedagogía de paz en el proceso de paz o posacuerdo colombiano. Las múltiples violencias que han surgido en el conflicto armado colombiano no solo han dejado millones de víctimas, sino que han atravesado y configurado la memoria y la historia del país, de todas las generaciones. Las infancias de distintas generaciones han vivido e interpretado de distintas formas la experiencia con la violencia, muchas de ellas derivadas del conflicto armado colombiano. Las voces de las infancias de distintas generaciones históricamente han sido poco reconocidas, pese a ser actores fundamentales en la construcción de las memorias del territorio. En el primer caso, se presentan expresiones de memoria de excombatientes que vivieron su infancia en la guerrilla, y en el segundo caso, voces de niños y niñas de distintas generaciones que han vivido en zonas de conflicto armado y que hoy significan sus vivencias como memoria intergeneracional y posmemoria.

Strength training does not constitute women’s favourite physical activity. It is demonstrated in the survey conducted by Budzyńska at the University of Szczecin in 2013 among students of the Pedagogical Faculty. Only 1% of the surveyed students showed interest in strength training. The vision of a bodybuilding silhouette discourages women from taking up strength training. It is displayed in the survey conducted by Zaustowska in 2001 among junior high school students. Out of 78 respondents, 71 stated that they did not like the muscular figure. These fears are unfounded since a woman’s body is not disposed to achieve a bodybuilding figure. It depends on the structural, morphological and biochemical properties of one’s body. Some women who practice bodybuilding rely on strength training additionally supporting the growth of muscle mass with nutrients. This paper presents the advantages of applying strength training in everyday physical activity. These include fat reduction and a slim figure. Furthermore, the result of strength training is a relative increase in muscle mass and strength development. Another benefit of this form of activity is the strengthening of the structures which stabilize joints and bones thus reducing the risk of injury. The duration of static exercise depends on the applied load. Due to the short duration of static effort and relatively high strength commitment, energy for working muscles comes from anaerobic changes. ATP, phosphocreatine and a small amount of glycogen which are hydrolyzed. During the static exercise blood pressure and heart rate are increased. These changes are dependent on the size of the strength developed to oppose resistance. A heavy load used during the static exercise often causes reflex respiratory arrest, a dangerous phenomenon resulting in fainting during the exercise.

Published: June 2021

Досліджується залежність між офіційними показниками демографічної, соціальної і економічної статистики та кількістю надзвичайних ситуацій, які виникають на території регіонів України. У якості показників демографічної, соціальної і економічної статистики були відібрані наступні: чисельність наявного населення; утворення та поводження з відходами; загальна площа житлового фонду; посівна площа зернових та зернобобових сільськогосподарських культур; реальний наявний дохід, у відсотках до відповідного періоду попереднього року. Залежність між вказаними показниками перевірялася шляхом проведення кореляційного аналізу. У 56 % відсотках досліджуваних випадків між загальною кількістю надзвичайних ситуацій і показником чисельності наявного населення, яке проживає на території областей та в місті Києві спостерігається середня та висока сила кореляційного зв’язку. Між іншими проаналізованими в роботі показниками демографічної, соціальної і економічної статистики та загальною кількістю надзвичайних ситуацій випадків виявлення середньої та високої сили кореляційного зв’язку було значно менше. Не зрозумілою є причина отримання у 48 % випадків від’ємних значень коефіцієнтів кореляції між загальною кількістю надзвичайних ситуацій та показником утворення і поводження з відходами. При цьому, числове значення коефіцієнтів кореляції дозволяє стверджувати про середню та високу силу кореляційних зв’язків. Ймовірно це може бути випадковістю і пов’язано з невеликим об’ємом вибірки. Встановлену залежність між показниками загальної кількості надзвичайних ситуацій та чисельності наявного населення було описано рівнянням лінійної регресії. Адекватність регресійної моделі перевірялася за критерієм Фішера і забезпечує коефіцієнт кореляції не нижче 0,7, що підтверджує достовірність розробленої математичної моделі

Published: June 2021

Spontaneous subcapital fracture (SSF) of femoral neck in pre-existent osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH) is a rare presentation. Only a few cases have been reported so far and majority of them have been reported to have unilateral hip involvement.

We retrospectively reviewed clinical-radiological data of 10 patients (12 hips) with SSF complicating ONFH. All of them underwent uncemented total hip arthroplasty. All the available publications in the English language based medical literature were critically reviewed and results were summarized.

The median age of presentation was 32 years (range : 24 years to 61 years). They were followed up for a mean duration of 25 months (range : 12 months to 59 months). The most common risk factor was corticosteroid consumption (7 out of 10 patients). All except one (modified Ficat and Arlet stage II) belonged to advanced stage of ONFH {stage III 3 patients (3 hips), stage IV 6 patients (8 hips)}. The mean time lag of ONFH to presentation was 22.3 months (range : 5 months to 60 months), and SSF to presentation was 13.8 days (range : 1 day to 28 days). Mean pre- operative Harris Hip Score was 10.8 (range : 8 to 14), which improved to 93 (range : 91 to 96) after total hip arthroplasty when last followed up (p<0.05).

Corticosteroids induced ONFH has a propensity to develop SSF. This entity should find a place in existing classification system.
The partial femoral condyle focal resurfacing (HemiCAP-UniCAP) for treatment of full-thickness cartilage defects, systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Elbardesy Hany , Nagle Matthew , Simmons Lydia , Harty James
Published: June 2021

Knee osteochondral defects are a common problem among people, especially young and active patients. So effective joint preserving surgeries is essential to prevent or even delay the onset of osteoarthritis for these group of patients. This study aims to critically appraise and evaluate the evidence for the results and effectiveness of femoral condyle resurfacing (HemiCAP/ UniCAP) in treatment of patients with focal femoral condyle cartilage defect.

Using the search terms : HemiCAP, UniCAP, Episurf, focal, femoral, condyle, inlay and resur-facing, we reviewed the PubMed and EMBASE and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (CDSR) to find any articles published up to March 2020.

The short term follow-up of the HemiCAP shows (6.74 %) revision rate. However, 29.13 % loss of follow up let us consider these results with caution especially if the revision rate progressively increased with time to 19.3 % in 5-7 years with no enough evidence for the long term results except the data from the Australian Joint Registry 2018, where the cumulative revision rate was 40.6 % (33.5, 48.4) at ten years. The UniCAP that used for defect more than 4 cm 2 has a high revision rate (53.66 %) which is considered unacceptable revision rate in com-parison to another similar prosthesis such as Uni-Knee Arthroplasty (UKA).

The evidence from published studies and our meta- analysis suggests that partial resurfacing of the femoral condyle (HemiCAP) doesn’t support its usage as a tool to treat the focal cartilage defect in middle- aged patients.

The UniCAP as femoral condyle resurfacing has very high revision rate at 5-7 years (53.66 %) which make us recommend against its usage.
Proximal femoral derotation osteotomy in children with CP : long term outcome and the role of age at time of surgery
Authors: Vermuyten Lieven , Desloovere Katleen , Molenaers Guy , Van Campenhout Anja
Published: June 2021

The femoral derotation osteotomy (FDO) is seen as the golden standard treatment in children with cerebral palsy and internal rotated gait. This study provides quantitative evidence in support of the beneficial effect of FDO after long term follow up.

Retrospective clinical and kinematic evaluation of 31 CP patients (55 operated limbs) pre-, 1 and 3 years postoperatively after proximal FDO was conducted for a minimal follow-up of 3 years. This group con- sisted of 20 men and 11 women, aged 10.68±3.31 years at the time of surgery. Minimum follow up was 3 years (3.16±0.53 years), with 22 patients (38 operated limbs) having an additional follow up at 5 years (5.02±0.49 years). Age at FU3 and FU5 was 14.06±3.52 years and 15.39±3.08 years respectively.

A set of clinical and kinematic parameters were ana- lyzed and showed a significant correction of mean hip rotation and femoral anteversion after FDO. Further plotting of individual data comparing 3 or 5 year postoperative values to 1 year postoperative values showed no further significant changes, indicating sustained correction of internally rotted gait until end of our follow up. Plotting mean hip rotation in stance as well as kinematic knee parameters according to age grouped cohorts could not show age at time of surgery to be a significant factor in recurrence of internally rotated gait or preoperative disturbances of knee motion in the sagittal plane.

This study provides quantitative evidence on the beneficial effect of FDO, a surgical technique to improve internally rotated gait in cerebral palsy patients with spastic diplegia.

Pre- and postoperative clinical and kinematic parameters are compared and results are discussed.

Minimum follow up was 3 years with a mean follow up of 4.65±0.83 years. The effect of age at time of surgery on recurrence and kinematic parameters were studied.
Is the AO spine thoracolumbar injury classification system reliable and practical? a systematic review
Authors: Hwang Zion , Houston James , Fragakis Evangelos M. , Lupu Cristina , Bernard Jason , Bishop Tim , Lui Darren F.
Published: June 2021

Controversy surrounding the classification of thoracolumbar injuries has given rise to various classification systems over the years, including the most recent AOSpine Thoracolumbar Injury Classification System (ATLICS). This systematic review aims to provide an up-to-date evaluation of the literature, including assessment of a further three studies not analysed in previous reviews. In doing so, this is the first systematic review to include the reliability among non-spine subspecialty professionals and to document the wide variety between reliability across studies, particularly with regard to sub-type classification. Relevant studies were found via a systematic search of PubMed, EBESCO, Cochrane and Web of Science. Data extraction and quality assessment were conducted in line with Cochrane Collaboration guidelines. Twelve articles assessing the reliability of ATLICS were included in this review. The overall inter-observer reliability varied from fair to substantial, but the three additional studies in this review, compared to previous reviews, presented on average only fair reliability. The greatest variation of results was seen in A1 and B3 subtypes. Least reliably classified on average was A4 subtype. This systematic review concludes that ATLICS is reliable for the majority of injuries, but the variability within subtypes suggests the need for further research in assessing the needs of users in order to increase familiarity with ATLICS or perhaps the necessity to include more subtype-specific criteria into the system. Further research is also recommended on the reliability of modifiers, neurological classification and the application of ATLICS in a paediatric context.

Published: June 2021

Objective: To identify the effect of the organizational culture on patient safety in the hospital context.

Materials and methods: A systematic review, without meta-analysis, registered in PROSPERO with number CRD42020162981. Cross-sectional and observational studies were selected that assessed the safety environment and safety culture published between 2014 and 2020 in journals indexed in the EMBASE, Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (Literatura Latinoamericana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde, LILACS) via the Virtual Health Library (Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde, BVS), Medline (International Literature in Health Sciences) via PubMed, and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL).

Results: The findings show that a positive safety environment exerts a beneficial effect on the safety culture, favors the notification of events, and enables improvements in the quality of health care.

Conclusions: The effective interaction between safety culture and organizational culture is still scarce in the literature. Most of the studies carried out investigate the situational diagnosis and little progress is made in terms of deepening the implications for the professional practice and the repercussions for the safety of hospitalized patients.

Na podstawie badań ankietowych przeanalizowano opinie producentów mleka na temat ich współpracy z dostawcami pasz. Subiektywne oceny respondentów porównano z ich rzeczywistym postępowaniem. Wyniki badania wskazują, że współpraca rolników z dostawcami pasz jest z reguły długoterminowa i stabilna. Zdecydowana większość respondentów postrzega swoje relacje z dostawcą pasz jako dobre lub bardzo dobre. Relacje między rolnikiem i dostawcą paszy mają zazwyczaj charakter nieformalny (ponad 90% rolników nie zawiera pisemnej umowy na dostawy). Jako najważniejsze cechy relacji rolnicy wymienili poziom cen i jakość oferowanych pasz. Zaobserwowano jednak istotne różnice dotyczące: wybranych cech charakteryzujących gospodarstwo, otrzymywanych przez rolników rabatów oraz możliwości negocjacji cen w zależności od kanału dostaw pasz. Pomimo braku istotnych różnic w powierzchni gospodarstw, rolnicy, którzy kupują pasze bezpośrednio od producenta, prowadzą znacznie większą produkcję mleka i otrzymują większy rabat od dostawcy paszy niż rolnicy zakupujący paszę u pośredników. Ta grupa rolników również częściej negocjuje ceny i częściej rozważa zmianę dostawców.

The incidence of multiple pregnancy has increased, particularly because of the advances in assisted reproductive technologies. Multiple gestations are high risk pregnancies, especially the monochorionic ones. Two/thirds of initially twin pregnancies result in singles at birth, a condition defined as vanishing twin syndrome. The intrauterine death of one of the twins can cause direct fetal damage to the surviving one on several levels. The paper describes the case of a child born from twin pregnancy that was interrupted for one of the co-twins at early second trimester of gestation who presented with aplasia cutis congenita.
“MumCare”: An Artificial Intelligence Based Assistant

Published: June 2021

Bringing a new life to the world is a wonder to every mother. Experience faced by pregnant mothers vary from one pregnancy to another pregnancy. There is a vast amount of information available on the Internet and printed materials. Yet, this knowledge is too complex or lengthy and very few applications provide customized information to pregnant mothers. In a time where smart phones have become a necessity in our life, a mobile app is one of the easiest ways to obtain prenatal information. Hence, we have developed a mobile application to help pregnant mothers. This application includes an artificial intelligence (AI) based chatbot. AI chat bot communicates and guides the mother in a way that creates the illusion as if they are talking to their unborn child. The Spiral Model was used as the development methodology and the application was developed in an environment of continuous integration and deployment with GIT personal repository. This application was implemented using React Native and the Node.js. Chat bot was created with Dialogflow agent and integrated with the firebase through the Google cloud functions. Some existing applications were studied to identify the features and limitations of current pregnancy care mobile applications. This solution is realistic and successful and it has an upgradable model of growth. The rapid development of the Internet and mobile devices in the world has changed people's lifestyles. This mobile app will be helpful for pregnant mothers living in rural as well as in metropolitan areas alike and can enhance education and health.

Zeitungssignaturen

Warum es in der Württembergischen Landesbibliothek so vielerlei Signaturen gibt, fragt man sich bestimmt immer wieder. Wie es jedoch dazu kam, weiß man oft nach einigen Jahrzehnten nicht mehr. Die Zt-Signaturen sind so ein Beispiel. Sie führen uns z. B. auch vor Augen, warum eine Entscheidung nach Jahren zu Problemen führen kann, obwohl man sie gerade zur Vereinfachung der täglichen Arbeit einmal eingeführt hatte.

Authors: Oberhausen Birgit

Die Württembergische Landesbibliothek verfügt über einen umfangreichen Bestand sowohl an aktuellen wie auch an historischen Tages- und Wochenzeitungen.

Insgesamt bezieht sie 286 Zeitungstitel über laufende Abos, weitere 62 Zeitungen im Jahr kommen als Mikrofilm ins Haus.

große Umsortieren
Authors: Selmikeit Katja
Published: June 2021

Daheim das Bücherregal neu zu ordnen, ist eine beliebte Ausweichbeschäftigung, wenn man eigentlich putzen, die Steuererklärung machen oder eine Dissertation schreiben sollte. Entschließt sich jedoch eine große wissenschaftliche Bibliothek wie die WLB dazu, die knapp 100.000 Bücher ihrer Lesesäle umzusortieren, dann muss es für ein solches Großprojekt schon gute Gründe geben. Wir berichten im Folgenden von unserer Entscheidung für einen Umstieg auf die Regensburger Verbundklassifikation (RVK) als neuer Aufstellungssystematik und von den ersten Meilensteinen auf dem Weg dorthin.
