Aggression by patients and their relatives against mental health nurses in the workplace
Authors: Gudonytė Rūta , Palinauskienė Liucija Ramunė
Published: August 2023

Investigation problem. Violence in healthcare facilities has become a global phenomenon that requires immediate attention. The nursing profession is particularly affected, and the vulnerability of nurses to workplace violence is particularly evident in mental health nursing. Aggression at work is a big problem for both nurses and patients and their relatives. Communication with patients deteriorates, attention and concentration to solve the patient's health problems decreases, the quality of life of the family and the nurse deteriorates, and the opportunity to improve.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the aggression of patients and relatives against mental health nurses in the workplace.

Methodology of investigation. A quantitative study using an anonymous survey in online. Study participants 118 mental health nurses.

Research results and conclusions. The most common types of aggression at work are verbal and physical, and the least common is sexual harassment. The main risk factors for aggression depended on patients and relatives, on the status and personal characteristics of the caregiver, and on the work environment. When nurses encountered an aggressor, they usually tried to calm him down by communicating, removing stimuli from the environment that promote aggression.
Patients' anxiety and its causes in the pre-operative period
Authors: Buivydienė Agnė , Jakavonytė-Akstinienė Agnė
Published: August 2023

Anxiety is usually caused by even minor surgery.  The necessity of the procedure, the high pre-operative emotional arousal, the post-operative pain, the difficult and lengthy recovery process, the hospital environment, the diagnostic and preparatory tests, the attending and nursing staff-these are all factors that can influence the pre-operative anxiety a patient feels.

The aim of this study is to analyse the anxiety and its causes in the preoperative period.

Methods. A quantitative study was conducted.

Results and conclusions the sample was random. 110 respondents participated in the study. The respondents often felt anxiety in the preoperative period, which was caused by intrusive thoughts about the surgery, the length of the postoperative period and the pain of the disease. In contrast, factors such as possible drug allergy, lack of information and negative postoperative outcomes were seen as minor contributors to anxiety. It was observed that the respondents were less likely to experience physical symptoms of anxiety. In contrast, psychological symptoms were more frequent in the preoperative period. Although the vast majority of respondents stated that they did not need psychological support, the study showed that some respondents tended to communicate actively with both relatives and nurses.

Authors: Uche Ifeanyi A. , Noke Ugo Chinedu , John Udeigwe O.
Published: August 2023

The issue of fossilization has been a concern for researchers, in the area of second language acquisition, many of whom have investigated its possible causes, in what form they appear, and at what age. However, it is evident that second language learners fail to reach native-like competence in the target language. Consequently, this study examines the issues of fossilization in relation to ultimate attainment. It compares two main hypotheses, pointing out their underlying focus. The methodology used in this study is documentary derived from extensive reading of extant literatures in the area of second language acquisition. The findings, here, point to the fact that the crux of the discussion on fossilization is ultimate attainment drawing from the UG theory. Finally, the study concludes, aligning with Han’s position, that fossilization is inevitable, and also that it has great significance on second language acquisition.

Project quality management in a competency-based approach
Authors: Berényi László
Published: August 2023

The Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) standard and guide has offered a comprehensive approach to project management for decades. The seventh edition, published in 2021, embodies significant changes by switching from process orientation to competencies. Project quality management is a knowledge area where process monitoring and documentation must have special attention. Competencies lead to a broader interpretation of quality-related activities, with reduced weight on quality assurance but an increased focus on quality inspection and management. The paper aims to evaluate the main changes in quality-related regulation. The evolution of the approach is radical, but the benefits are available only for organizations with well-established methodological knowledge. The support of process-oriented project management may not be abandoned.
A review on MWCNTS: the effect of its addition on the polymer matrix
Authors: Taha Taha Zoubeida , Ádámné Major Andrea
Published: August 2023

In recent years, it has been realized that nanocomposite materials are candidates for many applications in all fields due to their unique properties. This review aims to study the possibility of modifying some properties of polymers by adding carbon nanotubes to improve their properties by taking advantage of the large surface area of MWCNTs to volume ratio. For this purpose, multi-walled carbon nanotubes were used at different ratios and by different mixing methods. Then the effect of this addition was monitored by the procedure of some mechanical, electrical and thermal measurements of the resulting nanocomposite materials. The results of the tests showed that the quality of the filling depends on the way it is distributed within the polymer matrix, where the homogeneous dispersion of MWCNTs will reflect on the properties of the nanocomposite material thus benefit from the special properties of it. Also, the results showed that the addition of MWCNTs at low ratios achieved uniform distribution and dispersion, so improved the properties of the materials such as tensile strength, elongation at break and young's modulus. The ratio of 0.5 wt % of MWCNTs represented an average value for adding MWCNTs to various types of polymers. These composite nanomaterials can replace other industrial materials in many applications.

Published: August 2023

The COVID-19 coronavirus, an infectious disease originating in Wuhan, has become an outbreak worldwide, leading to unprecedented measures restricting social and physical activities in many countries. The subsequent social distancing of COVID-19 has significantly resulted in many psychological consequences. The current study examines the impact of social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health symptoms of Selangor State, Malaysia residents. An online survey was conducted through social media platforms targeting residents of Selangor State in Malaysia. A convenience sampling method was led to include 258 respondents in the study. The questionnaire on the symptoms of mental health related to fear of COVID-19 included 13 items developed from the existing studies. The results showed that symptoms of mental health problems related to fear of COVID-19 are negatively associated with the likelihood of social interaction. The overall score of symptoms of mental health related to the fear of COVID-19 showed moderate symptoms of mental problems related to the fear of COVID-19. The factor of age was also associated with higher symptomatology of mental health problems related to fear of COVID-19. Thus, related measures and guidelines must consider the mental well-being of the at-risk person as the pandemic continues. The current study’s findings contribute to the knowledge gaps in behavioural health during biological disasters. It also provides a reference for professionals and policymakers to develop programs and measures to handle the psychosocial status of the affected people.

Published: August 2023

Integrated infrastructure has been considered the key to the development of the urban transport system. Studies have rarely focused on the benefits and issues related to the urban integrated transport system, including mobility hubs. The present study attempts to analyze different aspects concerning the urban integrated infrastructure with a special focus on the Kochi Rail Metro and the Vyttila Mobility Hub in Kerala. The study reveals that 41 percent of commuters rely on Hub and Metro for occupation-induced traveling, followed by education (28 percent) and health (20 percent). It is revealed that the existing fare of Kochi Metro does not appear to be attractive to passengers. Almost 90 percent of passengers consider fares as not reasonable. Most of the commuters of Metro Train services and Mobility Hub share the view that these are ‘inclusive.’ The most noteworthy aspect of Metro and Hub is that they are eco-friendlier and sustainable. However, as an integrated infrastructure mode, it has to travel a long way yet. The study shows that the metro rail services must be accessible and affordable to the people. The study suggests that metro authorities need to make policy decisions to rationalize the fare rates in accordance with different parameters to attract more passengers to the Metro services. As the commuters from the city area are averse to using the metro services, steps need to be taken to encourage the urban passengers to use the metro services.

The Romanized writing of Vietnamese: A unique case in the Far East
Authors: Phạm Thị Kiều Ly , Albano Mariangela
Published: August 2023

Historical circumstances have left the Vietnamese language with a legacy of three written systems: sinograms, introduced at the same time as the Chinese Empire’s political control and the classical Confucian books; the nôm script, sinograms adapted to the Vietnamese language; and Romanized writing, created by Jesuit missionaries, which has had official status since 1945. The Vietnamese use of a Latin-type alphabet is a unique phenomenon among countries marked by Confucian doctrine in the East Asian cultural sphere. In this chapter, we retrace the creation of the Romanized writing ([chữ] quốc ngữ) since 1615 and its subsequent evolution. We analyze the historical and literary context and the opinions of the relevant figures in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to show the extent to which quốc ngữ has occupied the role of the official script of Vietnam.

Authors: Kimutai Isaiah K. , Kimutai Dr. Stephen  K.
Published: August 2023

The industrial sector is seriously threatened by high energy costs brought on by inefficient energy use. Energy, together with labor and raw materials, make up the majority of production costs in the textile industry. As a result, the only real way for the textile industry to turn a profit and maintain its competitiveness is to reduce its energy costs through energy conservation measures and energy management strategies. The main objective of the study was to investigate energy utilization in textile manufacturing plant and identify energy saving and conservation measures that help reduce energy costs. In the current work, energy investigation was carried out to determine performance of high energy consuming utility systems and equipment such as compressed air systems, boilers, motors, lighting systems and steam distribution systems. Boiler flue gas analysis test, air compressor air leak test, heat loss analysis for steam distribution system, motor load assessment and load variation trends in air compressor were done. Energy utilization analysis showed that high electricity consumption occurs in spinning (48%), followed by weaving (26%) and wet processing (22%). Statistical analysis of energy consumption in spinning, weaving and wet processing showed linear relationship between production and energy consumption with correlation coefficients (R2) of 0.782, 0.708 and 0.637 respectively which reveals that there continues to be a large potential of energy efficiency across all the major textile manufacturing processes in the plant. The study found potential savings in electric energy to be approximately 367,784 kWh/year, wood fuel savings 1,219 tones/year and furnace oil savings to be 22,275 L/year. The results displayed 31.6% overall energy cost saving potential with an average simple payback period of 0.5 years on the investigated high energy consuming utility systems and equipment. In conclusion, significant energy savings in the sector might be attained by implementing free or inexpensive investments including sealing air and steam leaks, insulating bare pipes, and properly drying wood fuel.
Dapagliflozin
Authors: CADTH
Published: August 2023

The CADTH Formulary Management Expert Committee (FMEC) concluded there was an unmet need to reduce the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially for those patients without diabetes, given the lack of reimbursed options.

Evidence from the DAPA-CKD trial, the largest trial with the longest follow-up identified by a systematic review, demonstrated that patients with CKD treated with dapagliflozin had a slower decline of estimated glomerular filtration rate, a reduction in the urinary albumin to creatinine ratio, and increased time to cardiovascular and renal events compared with placebo.

FMEC concluded that reimbursement should be restricted to patients eligible for the DAPA-CKD trial, which included meeting diagnostic criteria for CKD and treatment with an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor or angiotensin II receptor blocker at the maximum-tolerated dose.

Abstract. Four adjacent lakes (Arco, Budd, Deming, and Josephine) within Itasca State Park in Minnesota, USA are reported to be meromictic in the scientific literature. However, seasonally persistent chemoclines have never been documented. We collected seasonal profiles of temperature and specific conductance and placed temperature sensor chains in two lakes for ~ 1 year to explore whether these lakes remain stratified through seasonal mixing events, and what factors contribute to their stability. The results indicate that all lakes are predominantly thermally stratified and are prone to mixing in isothermal periods during spring and fall. Despite brief, semi-annual erosion of thermal stratification, Deming Lake showed no signs of complete mixing from 2006 to 2009 and 2019–2022 and is likely meromictic. Geochemical data indicate that water in Budd Lake, the most dilute lake, is predominantly sourced from precipitation. The water in the other three lakes is calcium-magnesium bicarbonate type, reflecting a source of water that has interacted with the landscape. δ18OH2O and δ2HH2O measurements indicate the lakes are supplied by precipitation modified by evaporation. The water residence time in meromictic Deming Lake is short (100 days), yet it maintains a large reservoir of dissolved iron. Josephine, Arco, and Deming lakes sit in a valley with likely permeable sediments and may be hydrologically connected through wetlands, and recharged with shallow groundwater, as no streams are present. All four lakes develop subsurface chlorophyll maxima layers during the summer. All lakes also develop subsurface oxygen maxima that may result from oxygen trapping in the spring by rapidly developed thermoclines. Documenting the mixing status and general chemistry of these lakes enhances their utility and accessibility for future biogeochemical studies.

Abstract. Reducing oil and gas methane emissions is crucially important for limiting
the rate of human-induced climate warming. As the capacity of multi-scale
measurements of global oil and gas methane emissions has advanced in recent
years, including the emerging ecosystem of satellite and airborne remote
sensing platforms, a clear need for an openly accessible and regularly
updated global inventory of oil and gas infrastructure has emerged as an
important tool for characterizing and tracking methane emission sources. In
this study, we develop a spatially explicit database of global oil and gas
infrastructure, focusing on the acquisition, curation, and integration of
public-domain geospatial datasets reported by official government sources and by industry, academic research institutions, and other non-government entities. We focus on the major
oil and gas facility types that are key sources of measured methane
emissions, including production wells, offshore production platforms,
natural gas compressor stations, processing facilities, liquefied natural
gas facilities, crude oil refineries, and pipelines. The first version of
this global geospatial database (Oil and Gas Infrastructure Mapping
database, OGIM_v1) contains a total of ∼ 6 million features, including 2.6 million point locations of major oil and gas
facility types and over 2.6×106 km of pipelines globally. For
each facility record, we include key attributes – such as facility type,
operational status, oil and gas production and capacity information,
operator names, and installation dates – which enable detailed methane
source assessment and attribution analytics. Using the OGIM database, we
demonstrate facility-level source attribution for multiple airborne remote-sensing-detected methane point sources from the Permian Basin, which is the
largest oil-producing basin in the United States. In addition to source attribution,
we present other major applications of this oil and gas infrastructure
database in relation to methane emission assessment, including the
development of an improved bottom-up methane emission inventory at high
resolution (1 km × 1 km). We also discuss the tracking of changes in
basin-level oil and gas activity and the development of policy-relevant
analytics and insights for targeted methane mitigation. This work and the
OGIM database, which we anticipate updating on a regular cadence, help fulfill
a crucial oil and gas geospatial data need, in support of the assessment,
attribution, and mitigation of global oil and gas methane emissions at high

Abstract. This study aims to identify common hydrogeological patterns and to gain a deeper understanding of the underlying similarities and their link to physiographic, climatic, and anthropogenic controls of coastal groundwater. The most striking aspects of GWL dynamics and their controls were identified through a combination of statistical metrics, calculated from about 8,000 groundwater hydrographs, and pattern recognition, classification, and explanation using machine learning techniques and SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP). Overall, four different GWL dynamics patterns emerge, independent of the different seasons, time series lengths, and periods. We show in this study that similar GWL dynamics can be observed around the world with different combinations of site characteristics, but also that the main factors differentiating these patterns can be identified. Three of the identified patterns exhibit high short-term and interannual variability and are most common in regions with low terrain elevation and shallow groundwater depth. Climate and soil characteristics are most important in differentiating these patterns. This study provides new insights into the hydrogeological behavior of groundwater in coastal regions and guides systematic and holistic groundwater monitoring and modelling, motivating to consider various aspects of GWL dynamics when, for example, estimating climate-driven GWL changes – especially when information on potential controls is limited.
ANÁLISE DE 1 CORÍNTIOS 2,1-5: PAULO DE TARSO EM COMPARAÇÃO COM OS ESTOICOS SOBRE “SABEDORIA”
Authors: Da Luz Diogo
Published: August 2023

Neste artigo elaboramos um estudo exegético de 1Coríntios 2,1-5 com o objetivo de cotejar com a visão estoica de sabedoria. Na perícope em questão, assim como no contexto de 1 Coríntios, Paulo torna explícita sua defesa de superação do ideal de sabedoria, pois defende que esta ainda se encontra no nível humano, não divino. Ao fazer isso, o apóstolo se opõe a uma das principais linhas filosóficas de sua época, o estoicismo, uma vez que os estoicos têm por finalidade justamente a sabedoria, ou mais objetivamente, a vida sábia.

The employment of social workers in the health sector, who work in different institutions in terms of service areas, increased with the Health Transformation Program that started in the 2000s. There are some regulations that are accepted as a turning point in terms of the existence of social work in health institutions. The Patient Rights Regulation published in 1998 is one of them. Between 1998 and 2011, social workers were actively engaged in patient rights practices. In the process that started with the publication of the Medical Social Work Implementation Directive in 2011, the way for social workers to engage in professional interventions within the scope of medical social work has been paved. Today, there are issues regarding the units that social workers will take part in, in the published guidelines for the delivery of specific health services and in the standards determined for total quality management in health. Therefore, the need for specialization in the field of medical social work is increasing day by day. In this study, explanations about the field in the medical social work literature, the legislation on palliative care services and the standards regarding total quality management practices were examined. With this study, it is aimed to bring up the specialization and supervision needs of the social work profession, whose existence is accepted in the field of palliative care, and to emphasize the necessity of improving the professional infrastructure for the planned services.

Regional characterization of the vulnerability of the unconfined groundwaters in Bulgaria
Authors: Vasileva Tanya , Valtchev Simeon , Toteva Aglaida
Published: August 2023

Groundwater vulnerability to contaminant infiltration from the surface, and to state deterioration, is related to the spatial distribution of rocks with diverse porosities, flow characteristics and unsaturated zone thickness. For the present regional assessment of groundwater vulnerability, it is considered most appropriate to adopt a method based on spatial differences in the geological and tectonic, and related hydrogeological, conditions in Bulgaria. The objective of the present study is to compile a vulnerability map of the unconfined groundwater in the country. This groundwater type is very important for drinking water supply, and it is at the highest risk of contamination. The groundwater on the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria has been divided into seven vulnerability classes, based on the corresponding hydrogeological units. The map is based on the geological map of Bulgaria in scale 1:100 000. It shows that groundwater is of low vulnerability over a large part of the country’s area (57%). Medium to medium-high groundwater vulnerability is defined for approximately 31% of the total area, while high and very high vulnerability are defined for 7% and 5%, correspondingly.
Detrital zircon age constraint on the low-grade sedimentary succession along the Mareshnitsa River Valley, eastern Circum-Rhodope Belt, Bulgaria
Authors: Bonev Nikolay , Filipov Petyo
Published: August 2023

We focused on the eastern Circum-Rhodope belt (CRB) low-grade sequence along the Mareshnitsa River Valley in Bulgaria. U-Pb detrital zircon geochronology revealed latest Late Jurassic maximum depositional age of a metasandstone. A major Jurassic zircon cluster in the metasandstone is consistent with a provenance from the CRB-related Evros arc, whereas the minor cluster of Triassic zircons come from the high-grade basement. The results indicate mostly latest Late Jurasic sedimentation proximal to the Evros arc (CRB) and minor detrital input from the continental margin of Eurasia (Rhodope). The results further support the presence of Mesozoic (Jurassic) oceanic lithosphere mantle remnants within the metamorphic basement of the eastern Rhodope Massif.
Regional application of complex groundwater quality indices and mapping for the territory of Bulgaria with possibilities for their use
Authors: Vasileva Tanya
Published: August 2023

The aim of this study is to perform a spatial complex hydrochemical analysis of groundwater quality in Bulgaria and compile a map. For this purpose, data for the chemical composition (Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, Cl–, SO42–, NO3–, HCO3–, TDS, EC) of fresh groundwater (having shallow circulation) for the year 2015 have been summarized. These are the waters most vulnerable to incoming contaminants infiltrating from the surface and, at the same time, these are the waters of importance for the provision of potable water supply. The Groundwater Quality Index has been used to assess the water quality for domestic usage. An assessment of the potential groundwater’s corrosive activity has also been made. For this purpose, the Langelier Saturation Index and the Potential to Promote Galvanic Corrosion were determined as well. The galvanic corrosion of water in respect to lead (expressed as the chloride-sulphate mass ratio) has not been determined and mapped on the territory of Bulgaria, nor has the Langelier index for fresh groundwater. For the year of 2015, the groundwater of the territory was classified as being in acceptable (76 to 90), and good (90 to 95) condition in terms of the Groundwater Quality Index. In terms of the Langelier Saturation Index and the Potential for Galvanic Corrosion, the territory of the country can be characterized by low to moderate potential (for galvanic corrosion), and according to LSI it can be classified in three categories – potentially corrosive, indeterminate, and scale forming.

Published: August 2023

SARS CoV-2 was discovered in Wuhan, China, in December 2019 and has since mutated into new variants. One of the genes that mutated in SARS CoV-2 is RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), a gene playing roles in viral replication and transcription. This study aimed to determine the variation of the RdRp gene in the SARS CoV-2 variant. We used VTM-preserved biological samples from positive nasopharyngeal swabs confirmed by qRT-PCR testing stored at -80°C. We isolated samples using the QIAamp Viral RNA Mini Kit and determined their concentration with Qubit RNA HS Assay reagents. After amplifying the RNA using qRT-PCR, we prepared the samples for sequencing with the Illumina RNA prep kit. Sequencing was carried out with the Miseq system and results were produced in FASTQ format.
This study identified 251 samples, and analysis of the RdRp gene showed 69 substitution mutations and one deletion mutation. The highest point mutation was found in the C14408T nucleotide sequence, almost in all study samples of all variants (98.4%). There were 28 missense mutations, including C14408T, which converts the amino acid proline to leucine. Four research samples that did not have mutations in C14408T were samples in the early period of the COVID-19 pandemic before various variants were reported. In summary, our study on the variation of the RdRp gene in the SARS CoV-2 variant demonstrated remarkable C14408T mutations. Utilizing this mutation is a crucial genetic indicator for tracking alterations in the SARS-CoV-2 and comprehending its evolutionary patterns.
