Published: April 2023

The purpose of this study is to investigate the association between anxiety and counseling competencies among Malaysian trainee counselors within supervision. Recently, counseling competencies have been highlighted in counselor education and training as it is one of the professional ethics to be obliged. However, there were a limited number of studies on how anxiety was affecting the competencies of counselors-in-training. Previous literature shows that most of the studies regarding this topic have been conducted more in Western countries than in Malaysia. Therefore, this study was implemented in public universities that offer bachelor counseling programs all across Malaysia. The respondents comprising n=204 final year trainee counselors undergo internship and n=62 counseling lecturers are supervisors. The result proves that anxiety has a negative significant correlation with counselor trainees’ competencies r=-.399**. The result indicated that the anxiety in the model was a significant predictor of counseling competencies, R2=.159, F (1, 202)=38.180**, p<.000. The results also reported that anxiety had contributed significantly (β=-.285**, p<.000) on the Malaysian novice counselors’ competency. This study provided supervisors and counselor educators with empirical data on the factor that may affect trainee counselors’ competencies during the training. In contrast, this study only focuses on anxiety. There might be other factors that need to be considered in future studies. All these findings bring new perspectives in response to issues regarding trainee counselors to enable them to grow and remain responsive and beneficial to the educational needs of novice counselors.

Published: April 2023

Background

Informal caregivers of patients with head and neck cancer (HNC), such as the patient’s spouse, other close relatives, or friends, can play an important role in home-based treatment and health care. Research shows that informal caregivers are usually unprepared for this responsibility and need support with taking care of patients and other daily life activities. These circumstances place them in a vulnerable position, and their well-being may be compromised. This study is part of our ongoing project Carer eSupport, which aims to develop a web-based intervention to facilitate informal caregivers in the home environment.

Objective

This study aimed to explore the situation and context of informal caregivers of patients with HNC and their needs for designing and developing a web-based intervention (Carer eSupport). In addition, we proposed a novel framework for the development of a web-based intervention aimed at promoting the well-being of informal caregivers.

Methods

Focus groups were conducted with 15 informal caregivers and 13 health care professionals. Both informal caregivers and health care professionals were recruited from 3 university hospitals in Sweden. We adopted a thematic data analysis process to analyze the data.

Results

We investigated informal caregivers’ needs, critical factors for adoption, and desired functionalities of Carer eSupport. A total of 4 major themes, including information, web-based forum, virtual meeting place, and chatbot, emerged and were discussed by informal caregivers and health care professionals for Carer eSupport. However, most study participants did not like the idea of a chatbot for asking questions and retrieving information and expressed their concerns such as a lack of trust in robotic technologies and missing human contact while communicating with chatbots. The results from the focus groups were discussed through the lens of positive design research approaches.

Conclusions

This study provided an in-depth understanding of informal caregivers’ contexts and their preferred functions for a web-based intervention (Carer eSupport). Using the theoretical foundation of designing for well-being and positive design in the informal caregiving context, we proposed a positive design framework to support informal caregivers’ well-being. Our proposed framework might be helpful for human-computer interaction and user experience researchers to design meaningful eHealth interventions with a clear focus on users’ well-being and positive emotions, especially for informal caregivers of patients with HNC.

Authors: Fang Yu-Wen , Wang Ming-Ling , Chen Shu-Fen , Wang Mei-Hua
Published: April 2023

UNSTRUCTURED

Aim of the study: Breast milk is the safest and most nutritious food for infants, and breastfeeding has many psychological and physical benefits for infants and mothers, but the problems encountered in the breastfeeding process, such as lack of milk, swelling, and other factors, are that postpartum women reduce their willingness to breastfeed themselves, if they can improve lactation through TCM auxiliary therapy, the treatment is safer than drugs and can also relieve the discomfort of postpartum breastfeeding. There are many different TCM adjuvant therapies for the treatment of milk deficiency, such as acupuncture, tuina, acupressure, moxibustion, cupping, etc., and this study wants to discuss the overall efficacy of various TCM auxiliary therapies, and sort out in detail the relevant meridians and acupuncture points for the common treatment of breast deficiency for reference.
Study Design: A systematic review up to October 2022 was conducted using electronic databases such as Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL, Cochrane, CNKI, PubMed, and Airitilibrary. One author extracted data using a pre-designed database that was reviewed by another independent author; All co-authors were included in data assessment and interpretation. These factors were summarized using MATA-Analysis. Through different therapies of traditional Chinese medicine, acupressure point stimulation has achieved clinical remarkable, showing that it can effectively improve lactation and breast fullness, thereby helping patients with milk deficiency to increase their feeding rate.
Results: The data results are statistically different. Statistics in TCM-assisted therapies, the most common is acupressure for breast massage, followed by moxibustion and ear burial beans. Through different therapies of traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture point stimulation has achieved clinical remarkable, showing that it can effectively improve lactation and breast fullness, thereby helping patients with milk deficiency to increase feeding rate.
Conclusion: Nowadays, it is still rare for patients with postpartum milk deficiency to see the use of TCM-assisted therapy clinically. The results of this systematic review can be empirically significant. Breast acupressure, ear acupuncture, and moxibustion are non-invasive treatments and can effectively help patients in lactation, and clinical should be considered and widely promoted.

BACKGROUND

In response to the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic, a convenient, rapid, and sensitive diagnostic method for detecting COVID-19 is crucial for patient control and timely treatment.

OBJECTIVE

This study aimed to validate the detection of SARS-CoV-2 with the Pluslife SARS-CoV-2 rapid test kit developed based on a novel thermostatic amplification technique called RNase hybridization-assisted amplification.

METHODS

From November 25 to December 8, 2022, patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19, close contacts, and health care workers at high risk of exposure were recruited from 3 hospitals and 1 university. Respiratory specimens were collected for testing with the Pluslife SARS-CoV-2 rapid test kit and compared with reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and a commercial antigen assay kit. Samples from 1447 cases were obtained from 3 “ready-to-test” scenarios in which samples were collected on site and tested immediately, and samples from 503 cases were obtained from a “freeze-thaw test” scenario in which samples were collected, frozen, and thawed for testing.

RESULTS

Pluslife SARS-CoV-2 rapid testing of samples from the “ready-to-test” scenario was found to be accurate (overall sensitivity and specificity of 98.3% and 99.3%, respectively) and diagnostically useful (positive and negative likelihood ratios of 145.45 and 0.02, respectively). Pluslife SARS-CoV-2 rapid testing of samples from the “freeze-thaw test” scenario was also found to be accurate (overall sensitivity and specificity of 71.2% and 98.6%, respectively) and diagnostically useful (positive and negative likelihood ratios of 51.01 and 0.67, respectively). Our findings demonstrated that the time efficiency and accuracy of the results in a “ready-to-test” scenario were better. The time required from sample preparation to the seeing the result of the Pluslife SARS-CoV-2 rapid test was 10 to 38 minutes, which was substantially shorter than that of RT-qPCR (at least 90 minutes). In addition, the diagnostic efficacy of the Pluslife SARS-CoV-2 rapid test was better than that of a commercial antigen assay kit.

CONCLUSIONS

The developed RNase hybridization-assisted amplification assay provided rapid, sensitive, and convenient detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection and may be useful for enhanced detection of COVID-19 in homes, high-risk industries, and hospitals.

Published: April 2023

UNSTRUCTURED

A female patient in her early 40s presented with a several-month history of gait unsteadiness and dragging her left leg. She had a background of congenital hydrocephalus, treated with a ventriculoatrial shunt. On examination, she had increased tone and brisk reflexes in the lower limbs and a positive Hoffmann sign. A computed tomography (CT) scan and shunt series x-rays identified hydrocephalus secondary to a disconnected shunt. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of her cervical spine was also performed as part of the workup for her presenting symptoms and demonstrated features compatible with degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM). The patient subsequently underwent a shunt revision. Following the operation, her walking and hand function deteriorated over a period of several weeks. She consequently underwent an anterior cervical decompression and fusion for DCM, which partially improved her symptoms.

Published: April 2023

From the analysis of zircon tailings using X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF), Yttrium is a rare earth element (REE) with the highest concentration compared to other REEs. The purpose of this study is to determine the best kinetic model for describing how sulfuric acid extracts Yttrium from zircon tailings. Leaching temperatures of 200, 250, and 300 °C were used to determine the kinetics. Samples were obtained at 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, and 120 min for each temperature. This study discovered that the chemical reaction model's kinetics are the most closely related to those of the leaching process. The evaluation of the model utilizing the coefficient of determination (R2) on the relationship between each model and time lends support to this conclusion. The activation energy (Ea) of the leaching process is determined by the Arrhenius plot between ln k and 1/T. In the Yttrium leaching procedure, the Ea value is 14.42 kJ/mol. The chemical reaction model was in charge of the leaching process, according to the Ea value. The premise of the chemical reaction model is that chemical reactions regulate the rate of the reaction.

Published: April 2023

Recently many organization priorities have shifted from increased efficiency and profit maximization to long-term business success. The concepts of green business, business ethics, and corporate social responsibility which were discussed in this article have shared common bridging concepts to bring sustainable business. But the writers were lacking in addressing these common bridging concepts even if more articles were done separately. The main purpose of this study was systematically reviewing the published articles to examine the bridging concepts of green business, business ethics, and corporate social responsibility to the sustainable business success. The review process was conducted with the published articles which were extracted from database of Google scholar, directory of science, Springer, JSTOR, and DOAJ for the period of 2010 to 2021. Totally 46 published articles analyzed and categorized in to eight concepts. The result show that the five bridging concepts: Social responsibility, ethical business consideration, sustainable development, organizational performance, and environmentally friendly or green practice are all negatively impacted by a company’s failure to consider sustainability issues. Firms can achieve long term business success if they can incorporate these five bridging concepts in their sustainable business strategy. Finally the writers conclude the study by forwarding future line research.

Published: April 2023

Abstract: One of today's deadliest diseases, tuberculosis (TB), is caused by "mycobacterium tuberculosis", which usually targets the lungs, due to weakening of immune system. Tuberculosis is very common, and if it is not detected, the patient's risk of death increases over time. Several computer diagnostic methods have been proposed to diagnose tuberculosis based on chest X-rays, as machine learning has been widely used in the field of image processing, especially deep learning. Adapting these machine learning techniques can provide more accurate, timely and reliable diagnostic results. Current research shows that manual diagnosis can be replaced by machine learning-based diagnosis with properly trained models, which provide more accurate results. DIP is becoming more prominent in the field of biomedicine. With image processing, a Support Vector Machine (SVM) learning model can be used to classify disabled lungs. The main objective of this paper is, to diagnose tuberculosis using machine learning trained models with chest x-ray images.
PASPORT: A Secure and Private Location Proof Generation and Verification Framework
Authors: Surjuse Prof. Vaishali , Isankar Dhushant , Kamble Mrunali
Published: April 2023

Abstract: Recently, there has been a rapid growth in locationbased systems and applications in which users submit their location information to service providers in order to gain access to a service, resource, or reward. We have seen that in these applications, dishonest users have an incentive to cheat on their location. Unfortunately, no effective protection mechanism has been adopted by service providers against these fake location submissions. This is a critical issue that causes severe consequences for these applications. Motivated by this, we propose the Privacy-Aware and Secure Proof Of pRoximiTy (PASPORT) scheme in this article to address the problem. Using PASPORT, users submit a location proof (LP) to service providers to prove that their submitted location is true. PASPORT has a decentralized architecture designed for ad hoc scenarios in which mobile users can act as witnesses and generate LPs for each other. It provides user privacy protection as well as security properties, such as unforgeability and non transferability of LPs. Furthermore, the PASPORT scheme is resilient to prover–prover collusions and significantly reduces the success probability of Prover–Witness collusion attacks. To further make the proximity checking process private, we propose P-TREAD, a privacy-aware distance bounding protocol and integrate it into PASPORT. To validate our model, we implement a prototype of the proposed scheme on the Android platform. Extensive experiments indicate that the proposed method can efficiently protect location-based applications against fake submissions

Abstract: The Secured voting machine is developed to avoid all the apparel conditioning in the election process. Results are blazoned to every individual namer who suggested in the election, this point is lacking in the being electronic voting machine. Vote counting, affect assaying, affect publications are taking further time and also more homemade crimes happens in this process when we use current Electronic Voting Machine. We concentrated on the main issue that namer have to travel to their own native for advancing in the electronlike. The namer must go to the position where their namer ID is registered, also only they allow them to bounce. To develop a compact near field communication device for the choosers to poll their vote in order to have the voting process in a secured and effective introductory conception of this charge is to produce a digital voting system as a way to help to get relieve of defrauding of the homemade voting structures like paper- grounded voting system, in this there is a chance of casting vote further than formerly and prior. The proposed machine is which includes a couple of layers of verifications to insure the trust ability of the device. With the addition of biometric point detector, every namer is entered into the contrivance simplest after being diagnosed and checked with the given database of enlisted choosers. Once the corresponding point is matched with the records handed, the namer will be allowed to do for opting their preferred seeker from the panel of buttons. The final vote is also displayed onto a Liquid Cristal Display for the pride of choosers. The proposed design displays translucency and also carries the characteristic of being independent for the duration of the path of operation.

Abstract: Several benchmarking methods are developed for validation and comparability of Battery Management System (BMS) but due to varying methods and several parameters it is very hard to compare. State of Charge (SOC) validation is proposed in this paper, where based on several parameters a load cycle is developed. Frequency analysis is performed on varying driving loads and on certain timed points. This analysis of load profile is further used to create three validation profiles. On different temperatures the behaviour of the profile is observed. Long-term tests are preferred over one set-pair of temperature range. For estimation accuracy, transient behaviour, drift, failure, and temperature, many grading techniques are utilised. stability and residual charge estimation to evaluate the performance of different state estimations

Энергетическая оптимизация объемно-планировочных решений зданий сферической формы
Authors: Горбанева Елена
Published: April 2023

Важность задачи энергосбережения в строительном секторе определяется значительной долей первичной энер­гии, потребляемой в ходе строительного производства и эксплуатации объектов капитального строительства. Энергетическая эффективность жизненного цикла объекта капитального строительства определяется геометрическими и теплофизическими характеристиками ограждающих конструкций. Особую роль в достижении энергоэффективности играют объёмно-планировочные решения. Проанализированы зарубежные проекты купольных зданий середины ХХ века, запроектированные такими архитектора­ми, как Ричардом Бакминстером Фуллером, Николасом Гримшоу, архитекторами Мерфи и Макки, Эберхардом Генрих Зейдлером и другими. В результате работы определена зависимость коэффициента компактности здания, имеющего форму шарового сегмента, от радиуса купольной части и высоты, рассчитаны мощности тепловых потерь через поверхности ограждающих конструкций, линейные и точечные теплонапряжённые элементы, определены полные потери тепловой энергии за отопительный период через ограждающие конструкции зданий, имеющих форму шарового сегмента, а также сформулированы методы энергетической оптимизации объёмно-планировочных решений таких зданий. Выявлено, что при увеличении коэффициента компактности воз­растает расход ресурсов на изготовление и монтаж ограждающих конструкций и уменьшается энергоэффективность здания[1].

Архитектурно-градостроительное наследие России: сегодня и завтра
Authors: Швидковский Дмитрий
Published: April 2023

Трудная русская история ХХ столетия оставила неиз­гладимый след в облике и характере жизненной среды нашей страны. Мы бесконечно много потеряли в ходе войн и революций и не меньше - из-за негативного от­ношения к историческому наследию в течение большей части советского времени. Исчезли десятки тысяч церквей и дворянских усадеб, почти вся индивидуальная застрой­ка старинных городов, особенно характерная для нашей страны, - деревянная, множество древних сёл. Но пока все ещё сохраняется достаточно памятников архитектуры и градостроительства, чтобы можно было спасти и сохра­нить национальное своеобразие облика нашей страны в целом, имеющее непреходящее и принципиально важное значение для представлений о человеческой культуре и передающее красоту региональных школ, существующих по всей России, замечательных у каждого из народов и каждой области, составляющих нашу Родину. Процесс восстановления полного непререкаемого суверенитета России, инициированный Президентом В.В. Путиным, может быть поддержан восстановлением и включением в современную жизнь всего исторического наследия страны.
