An appendix on ethical research guidelines, along with a glossary and reference list comprehensively round up the book contents.

It gives students and practitioners a multidisciplinary understanding of the concepts and techniques involved in designing, monitoring, and analyzing various types of studies. The book's balanced set of homework assignments and in-class exercises are appropriate for students and researchers in the areas of biostatistics, epidemiology, medicine, pharmacy, and public health.
Transfer Learning for Fault Detection with Application to Wind Turbine SCADA Data
Authors: Simani Silvio , Farsoni Saverio , Castaldi Paolo
Published: March 2023

The installed wind power capacity is growing worldwide. Remote condition monitoring of wind turbines is employed to achieve higher uptimes and lower maintenance costs. Machine learning models can detect developing damages in wind turbines. Therefore, this paper demonstrates that cross–turbine transfer learning can drastically improve the accuracy of fault detection models in turbines with scarce SCADA data. In particular, it shows that combining the knowledge from turbines with scarce and turbines with plentiful data enables earlier detection of faults than prior art methods. Training fault detection models require large amounts of past and present SCADA data but these data are often unavailable or not representative of the current operation behavior. Newly commissioned wind farms lack SCADA data from the previous operation. Due to control software updates or hardware replacements, older turbines may also lack representative SCADA data. After such events, a turbine’s operation behavior can change significantly so its SCADA data no longer represent its current behavior. Therefore, the work highlights how to reuse and transfer knowledge across wind turbines to overcome this lack of data and enable the earlier detection of faults in wind turbines.

The Effect of Implementation of Guideline Order Bundles Into a General Admission Order Set on Clinical Practice Guideline Adoption: Quasi-Experimental Study
Authors: Mrosak Justine , Kandaswamy Swaminathan , Stokes Claire , Roth David , Gorbatkin Jenna , Dave Ishaan , Gillespie Scott , Orenstein Evan
Published: March 2023

Background

Clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) and associated order sets can help standardize patient care and lead to higher-value patient care. However, difficult access and poor usability of these order sets can result in lower use rates and reduce the CPGs’ impact on clinical outcomes. At our institution, we identified multiple CPGs for general pediatrics admissions where the appropriate order set was used in <50% of eligible encounters, leading to decreased adoption of CPG recommendations.

Objective

We aimed to determine how integrating disease-specific order groups into a common general admission order set influences adoption of CPG-specific order bundles for patients meeting CPG inclusion criteria admitted to the general pediatrics service.

Methods

We integrated order bundles for asthma, heavy menstrual bleeding, musculoskeletal infection, migraine, and pneumonia into a common general pediatrics order set. We compared pre- and postimplementation order bundle use rates for eligible encounters at both an intervention and nonintervention site for integrated CPGs. We also assessed order bundle adoption for nonintegrated CPGs, including bronchiolitis, acute gastroenteritis, and croup. In a post hoc analysis of encounters without order bundle use, we compared the pre- and postintervention frequency of diagnostic uncertainty at the time of admission.

Results

CPG order bundle use rates for incorporated CPGs increased by +9.8% (from 629/856, 73.5% to 405/486, 83.3%) at the intervention site and by +5.1% (896/1351, 66.3% to 509/713, 71.4%) at the nonintervention site. Order bundle adoption for nonintegrated CPGs decreased from 84% (536/638) to 68.5% (148/216), driven primarily by decreases in bronchiolitis order bundle adoption in the setting of the COVID-19 pandemic. Diagnostic uncertainty was more common in admissions without CPG order bundle use after implementation (28/227, 12.3% vs 19/81, 23.4%).

Conclusions

The integration of CPG-specific order bundles into a general admission order set improved overall CPG adoption. However, integrating only some CPGs may reduce adoption of order bundles for excluded CPGs. Diagnostic uncertainty at the time of admission is likely an underrecognized barrier to guideline adherence that is not addressed by an integrated admission order set.
The use of tele-education in medicine, during and beyond the COVID-19 pandemic: A commentary (Preprint)
Authors: Masud Sarwat
Published: March 2023

UNSTRUCTURED

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a disease caused by a novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), emerged initially as an isolated illness in December 2019 and later progressed into a global pandemic. Hard-hit areas were in lockdown, massively disrupting medical education activities. Tele-education, previously used as a means of long-distance education emerged as a solution in the field of medical education. Tele-rotations for medical students, journal clubs and lectures via Microsoft teams, medical conferences via zoom, residency, and fellowship interviews online, all emerged during this pandemic. Some medical students and trainees found it enjoyable, cost-effective, time-saving, feasible, unbiased, and preferred mode of education. Challenges related to supervision, availability, affordability, diminished communication, disturbance of streaming, or distractions due to environment. Tele-education has had a boom in the era of COVID-19. Research is needed further on effective mentoring and supervision of trainees via tele educational teaching models.

Authors: Fan Xinrui
Published: March 2023

Admiring Silence is Gurna’s fifth novel, in which the protagonist has been in exile in British for nearly 20 years, traumatized by family and society and trapped in an identity dilemma, and finally reconstructs his own identity by recovering from traumas. This paper analyzes the individual trauma experienced by the protagonist and its deep-seated causes in Admiring Silence from the perspective of Trauma and Recovery Theory and explains how the protagonist recovers from trauma in the reconstruction of family and social identity. The thesis points out that the abandonment of self-values by the African diaspora in a foreign country will go no return, and that only by constantly reconstructing oneself can one truly mend one’s inner trauma.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Heo Jin-young , Kim Jeong-ryeol
Published: March 2023

Objectives The effects of individual studies on using games in elementary school English classes are synthesized to confirm or deny the individual result against the average effect sizes. Recommendations follow for the design of games in elementary school English classes using an optimal combination of modulated variables. Methods Twenty domestic academic publications in the subject of English education made up the set of papers to be examined. The data were arranged in Excel, and the effect size was determined using the meta-analysis program CMA. According to the composition time and type of the game, organizational form, and the 2022 updated curriculum, the results of comparing and assessing the effects of elementary school English curriculum games were separated into knowledge-understanding, process-function, and value-attitude categories. Results The benefits of learning new words have been established in terms of knowledge and comprehension. In terms of process and function, understanding was more important than expressing, and in terms of value and attitude, interest was more important than attitude and confidence. Regarding the length of the game's configuration, utilizing it for the entire 40 minute class was more efficient than using it only in part (about 10 to 30 minutes). The use of online games, followed by bingo and cards, has the biggest impact in terms of game types. Group sessions, followed by individual and paired tasks, had the most positive impacts on game organization. Conclusions Textbook analyses on attention level improvement(Lee, Jung-Hyeon & Ihm, Hee-Jeong, 2014; Jang, Jin-Kyung & Lee, Seong-Won, 2014; Kim, Sung-Shin & Boo, Kyung-Soon, 2009; Choi, Hye-Wook, 2006), game types(Eun, Ji-Seon & Lee, Je-Young, 2018; Hwang, Hui-Jae, 2006), and pair impact studies(Han, Mi-Yun & Kim, Hye-Ryun, 2014) are only a few examples of the individual or textbook analysis studies that may be seen in earlier research. These individual studies presents limitations to understand the full impacts of using games to teach English in elementary school despite the fact that these researches are significant as individual studies. By synthesizing the results of previous experimental studies, this study comprehensively examined the effects of knowledge, understanding, process function, and value attitude according to the 2022 revised curriculum. An additional significant conclusion was attained as to how the effects of games are varied depending on categories like organization type, duration and types of games in elementary school English classes.

Published: March 2023

Objectives This study presented the necessity and specific action plans for maritime exchange education according to the perception that marine exchange education is insufficient in elementary social studies in the era of increasing marine exchange. Methods Since Korea has three sides of the sea, it has been developing maritime exchanges with various countries for a long time. Therefore, in this study, how Korea has developed maritime exchanges from the past to the present was examined through various literature. In this process, I looked for what is easy to present to elementary school students. In addition, the maritime exchange section presented in the current elementary social studies textbook was analyzed and problems and alternatives were presented. Results Currently, there is no content related to marine exchange in elementary social studies textbooks. The textbook identifies the ocean with the topography of the sea. Accordingly, the focus is on the lifestyle of people living in the sea. Through this, students cannot find the importance and meaning of marine exchange. Accordingly, the specific steps and methods of marine exchange education in the elementary social studies department were presented from the perspective of marine ethics, multicultural perspective, convergent thinking ability cultivation, and recognition of regional identity in the historical transformation process. In addition, the specific steps and methods of marine exchange education presented were presented and generalized by presenting cases of applying them to international exchange classes. Conclusions With globalization, maritime exchanges are increasing. Accordingly, elementary social studies departments should actively include contents related to marine exchange education in textbooks. However, the field does not know what marine exchange education is and how to practice it. Therefore, in this study, the necessity of marine exchange education and specific practical steps were presented. In addition, it was possible to generalize by showing actual practice cases according to the research results. It is meaningful that this research is the first attempt in the elementary social studies department, and we hope that complementary research will be actively conducted in the future.

Introduction of BIM-modeling methodology and geoinformation technologies in the construction industry causes the need of taking into account the specific customer requirements for the accuracy of building 3D-models in engineering-geodetic surveys. The author analyzes the requirements to the exactness of the technological stages of the current regulatory document on aerial photographic survey. The represented concept of approaches to precision standards corresponds to the outdated analogue model. The need for a different method of determining normative tolerances in obtaining modern types of products is noted. The relevance of requirements to the accuracy of building 3D-models without reference to the scale of the topoplan and the height of the relief section is shown. The method of designing the regulatory admissions for the accuracy of technological stages is proposed. They are designed for a particular object before the beginning of fieldwork with controlled variations of error accumulation coefficients and expressed as average errors in centimeters and fractions of a pixel on the ground. The obtained allowances are the substantiating requirements for the chosen technology and accuracy control of the work results in the technical design of aerial photographic survey. Practical calculation of tolerances for constructing a 3D model of the urban development object to meet the customers’ requirements was carried out. Conclusions are given on the prospects of the method in areas that use remote sensing materials with any technology of their processing and a variety of user’s needs.

Developing the reservoirs’ coastal strip in the Moscow oblast is an acute problem, and it has become especially critical during the recent three decades. To assess the impact of the coastal landscape structure transformation on the reservoirs eutrophication, we employed the vegetation index NDVI, which correlates with the chlorophyll A content in the water. Five water bodies were chosen as research objects and the materials of the Landsat 5 and 7 missions for the period from 1985 to 2020 with five-year intervals were used. The spatial and temporal dynamics of biotopes were monitored in 1 km wide coastal strip, and the values of the vegetation index were counted in the area. We have created time series of average index values with the increasing trend approximated through linear and polynomial functions. The dynamics of open and forest biotopes are not the same, and only the built-up area constantly expands. Regression analysis has shown the relationship between the coastal landscape structure and NDVI values. Growing development of areas significantly causes an enhancement of the mentioned amounts.

Authors: YAKUT Önder
Published: March 2023

Diabetes is getting more and more common around the world. People suffer from diabetes or live at risk associated with this disease. It is necessary to prevent health problems caused by diabetes, to reduce the risk of diabetes and to reduce a load of diabetes on the health system. Therefore, it is important to diagnose and treat diabetic patients early. In this study, Pima Indian Diabetes (PID) database was used to predict diabetes. Random Forest Classifier, Extra Tree Classifier and Gaussian Process Classifier machine learning methods have been used to predict whether individuals have diabetes or not. In this study, the method with the highest prediction accuracy was determined as the Random Forest Classifier. The accuracy of the recommended method was 81.71%. The proposed method was developed to assist clinicians in predicting diabetic patients using diagnostic measurements. The machine learning methods developed in this study were applied using Colab Notebook a Google Cloud Computing service.

A 5-year-old girl had poor growth and unresolving pneumonia. There was
persistent collapse-consolidation of the right middle lobe. CT thorax
revealed bilateral bronchial wall thickening and dilatation.
Bronchoscopy showed numerous endobronchial mucosal nodules, consisting
of dense lymphoid infiltrates. Bacterial culture of the nodule biopsy
suggested endobronchial actinomycosis. She had T-cell lymphopenia.
Genetic test confirmed the diagnosis of activated phosphatidylinositol
3-kinase delta syndrome (APDS), an immunodeficiency condition.

Introduction: Periodic breathing (PB) is considered
physiological in the neonatal period but must disappear in the first
months of life. Few data regarding PB after the neonatal period are
available. The objective of this study was to describe the clinical and
polysomnographic characteristics of infants presenting with PB after the
age of 1 month. Methods: This French multicenter retrospective
case series included infants born at term between 2012 and 2021, without
underlying disease, and who presented during a polysomnography (PSG)
recording more than 1% of PB after 1 month of life. Results:
Overall, 10 infants were included, they underwent a PSG for brief
resolved unexplained event, desaturation, pauses in breathing, cyanosis,
and/or signs of respiratory distress. The percentage of total sleep time
spent with PB was 18.1% before 3 months (n=7), 4.7% between 3 and 6
months (n=10), 7.1% between 7 and 12 months (n=2), and 0% after 12
months (n=2). During the first PSG, ≥ 3% desaturations were observed in
77% to 100% of the PB episodes. At the first PSG, 9/10 infants had an
obstructive apnea hypopnea index > 10/h and 5/10 had a
central apnea index > 5/h. Gastro-esophageal reflux (GER)
was suspected in 8/10 infants. All infants showed improvement in initial
symptoms during the first year of life. Conclusion: Although PB
is rare after 1 month of age, the present study shows that when present,
PB is most frequently associated with obstructive and/or central apnea
syndrome in term infants without comorbidities other than GER.
A novel mosquito species identification method based on PCR and capillary electrophoresis

In the Anopheles genus, various mosquito species are able to transmit
Plasmodium parasites responsible for malaria, while others are
non-vectors. In an effort to better understand the biology of Anopheles
species and to quantify transmission risk in an area, the identification
of mosquito species collected on the field is an essential but
problematic task. Morphological identification requires expertise,
well-preserved specimens and high-quality equipment, and it does not
allow any subsequent verification when samples are later used in a
destructive treatment. Moreover, it involves physical manipulations that
are not compatible with experiments requiring fast sampling and
processing of specimens, hence species identification is often based on
DNA sequencing of reference genes or region such as the Internal
Transcribed Spacer 2 (ITS2) region of nuclear ribosomal DNA. Sequencing
ITS2 for numerous samples is costly, but the design of species-specific
PCR primers is not always possible when local species diversity is high.
Here, we introduce a molecular technique of species identification based
on precise determination of ITS2 length combined with a simple visual
observation, the color of mosquito hindleg tip. DNA extracted from
field-collected Anopheles mosquitoes was amplified with universal
Anopheles ITS2 primers and analyzed with a capillary electrophoresis
device, which precisely determines the size of the fragments. We defined
windows of amplicon sizes combined with fifth hind tarsus color, which
allow to discriminate the major Anopheles species found in our
collections. We validated our parameters via Sanger sequencing of the
ITS2 amplicons. This method can be particularly useful in situations
with a moderate species diversity, i.e. when the number of local species
is too high to define species-specific primers but low enough to avoid
individual ITS2 sequencing. This tool will be of interest to evaluate
local malaria transmission risk and this approach may further be
implemented for other mosquito genera.
Temporal Configuration -- Unlocking Hidden Streamflow Properties
Authors: Koehler Richard
Published: March 2023

Analytical tools are needed to identify and quantify artificial short-
and long-term discharge fluctuations, which can disrupt the natural
processes of a river. To measure the properties of discharge magnitude,
frequency, duration, timing and flow change, such tools typically use a
subset of metrics selected from over 170 descriptive statistical
indices. Many metrics are based on multi-day mean or median discharges
with associated variance or use a single value to describe the entire
dataset. However, these source indices do not quantify the temporal
configuration of streamflow, an additional hydrologic property that is
often overlooked. To address this situation, a non-index approach to
quantify all streamflow properties has now been developed using analysis
methods based on the lag (1) temporal autocorrelation signature of the
streamflow. The discharge (Q), discharge change (dQ/dt), and rate of
discharge change (d Q/dt ), along
with sequential summations, are presented in novel infographics. A dam
release river impact case study for the Colorado River at Lees Ferry,
Arizona, is included to demonstrate this innovative way of analyzing
streamflow datasets. The result is a set of new tools which yield
detailed information about the hydrologic regime, are highly
customizable, and can either be used as a stand-alone analysis or be
integrated into other existing data analysis techniques. The end result
is a better understanding of the hydrologic regime, more focused
research, and more effective management planning.
