A Refinement-by-Superposition hp-Method for H(curl)- and H(div)-Conforming Discretizations
Authors: Harmon Jake , Corrado Jeremiah , Notaros Branislav
Published: June 2021

We present an application of refinement-by-superposition (RBS) hp-refinement in computational electromagnetics (CEM), which permits exponential rates of convergence. In contrast to dominant approaches to hp-refinement for continuous Galerkin methods, which rely on constrained-nodes, the multi-level strategy presented drastically reduces the implementation complexity. Through the RBS methodology, enforcement of continuity occurs by construction, enabling arbitrary levels of refinement with ease and without the practical (but not theoretical) limitations of constrained-node refinement. We outline the construction of the RBS hp-method for refinement with H(curl)- and H(div)-conforming finite cells. Numerical simulations for the 2-D finite element method (FEM) solution of the Maxwell eigenvalue problem demonstrate the effectiveness of RBS hp-refinement. An additional goal of this work, we aim to promote the use of mixed-order (low- and high-order) elements in practical CEM applications.

Authors: Dagli Rishit , Shaikh Ali Mustufa , Mahdi Hussain , Nanivadekar Sameer
Published: June 2021

In this paper, we focus on creating a keywords extractor especially for a given job description job-related text corpus for better search engine optimization using attention based deep learning techniques. Millions of jobs are posted but most of them end up not being located due to improper SEO and keyword management. We aim to make this as easy to use as possible and allow us to use this for a large number of job descriptions very easily. We also make use of these algorithms to screen or get insights from large number of resumes, summarize and create keywords for a general piece of text or scientific articles. We also investigate the modeling power of BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) for the task of keyword extraction from job descriptions. We further validate our results by providing a fully-functional API and testing out the model with real-time job descriptions.

Las prácticas evaluativas docentes y la pregunta por el sujeto
Authors: Ibarguen Córdoba Claudia Lineth
Published: June 2021

Las prácticas de evaluación docentes han sido un asunto problemático en las instituciones educativas y en las comunidades académicas. Tales vicisitudes han quedado consignadas en determinados periodos básicos desde el punto de su contextualización histórica. Sin embargo, también ha sido tema de reflexión el papel que juegan los sujetos que aprenden dentro de las prácticas de evaluación con las que los docentes definen sus horizontes de posibilidad. Hay diversas preguntas que este artículo busca polemizar y para ello se sirve, entre otras cosas, de la contextualización histórica de la evaluación y las prácticas de evaluación docentes evidenciadas en esa historia, reconociendo en ella muchos síntomas que evidencian el problema de investigación, que bien se puede expresar a través de las siguientes preguntas: ¿Cuál es el sentido de la evaluación? ¿Cómo se posiciona el sujeto que aprende dentro de la evaluación? ¿Para que evalúan las escuelas? ¿Realmente todo tiene que ser evaluado? ¿Todo lo que se evalúa mejora? ¿Realmente mejora?
¿Qué opinan los alumnos con discapacidad intelectual sobre la educación inclusiva?
Authors: Cañabate Reyes Ernesto José , De la Herrán Gascón Agustín
Published: June 2021

La investigación se aproxima al conocimiento de la educación inclusiva desde una perspectiva axiológica y Bioética, a partir de la mirada de adultos con discapacidad intelectual que participan en un programa formativo. Los objetivos aspiran a comprender en profundidad cómo valoran los participantes el proceso inclusivo que desarrollan, la educación inclusiva y el logro de su calidad de vida. Para ello, se realizan catorce entrevistas en la que participan 14 estudiantes adultos con discapacidad. El análisis de los resultados permitió concluir que hay sectores y personas que no comparten el enfoque de la educación inclusiva. Por otro lado, se necesita que la educación inclusiva, como objeto mismo de la educación y la Pedagogía, se construya desde la reflexión y los factores necesarios para que la familia, la sociedad y la escuela, converjan. Finalmente, se concluye con que, para mejorar la calidad de vida de las personas con discapacidad intelectual, se debe incidir en un ambiente escolar óptimo en sus relaciones humanas y en un ambiente de confianza, donde se propenda al bienestar y desarrollo de estos estudiantes. A su vez, implica que instituciones y maestros deben estar preparados para desarrollar las acciones necesarias para cumplir este objetivo.

El modelo de justicia transicional y su relación con la justicia retributiva en Colombia
Authors: Torres Vásquez Henry , Echeverry Beltrán Claudia Rocío , Ortiz Vargas Danilo Alfredo
Published: June 2021

En este trabajo se analiza la justicia transicional como una forma diferente de hacer justicia, que se aplica de manera excepcional y durante un determinado tiempo. Históricamente se ha entendido como el conjunto de acciones de todo tipo a las que el Estado acude para superar situaciones largas de conflicto armado, y en las que la solución es el diálogo entre partes.

Es una justicia muy distinta al modelo clásico de derecho penal ordinario, el cual es se emplea en todo tiempo y lugar del territorio nacional; es claro que, a pesar de existir una jurisdicción especial para la paz, el derecho penal sigue vigente. Aun así, a raíz del Acuerdo de Paz entre las Farc Ep y el gobierno de Juan Manuel Santos en la actualidad la preferencia la tiene la Jurisdicción Especial para la Paz para conocer conductas criminales cometidas con anterioridad al 1 de diciembre de 2016 perpetradas con ocasión y en desarrollo del conflicto armado interno en Colombia.

Este artículo se enfoca en analizar las tensiones y estudia si se complementan la justicia restaurativa en la justicia penal convencional y la justicia de transición y su componente de justicia restaurativa, modelos actualmente vigentes en Colombia. Se concluye que no existe tensión y que ambas formas de justicia integran un hibrido que es un modelo de justicia específicamente destinada a solventar los problemas derivados de haber vivido décadas de conflicto armado no internacional en los que hubo millones de víctimas y en las que el derecho penal ha resultado insignificante.

JAK Be Nimble: Reviewing the Development of JAK Inhibitors and JAK Inhibitor Combinations for Special Populations of Patients with Myelofibrosis
Authors: Kuykendall Andrew T. , Komrokji Rami S.
Published: June 2021

Myelofibrosis (MF) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm hallmarked by uncontrolled blood counts, constitutional symptoms, extramedullary hematopoiesis, and an increased risk of developing acute myeloid leukemia. Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors are the most common treatment for MF due to their ability to reduce spleen size and improve disease-related symptoms; however, JAK inhibitors are not suitable for every patient and their impact on MF is limited in several respects. Novel JAK inhibitors and JAK inhibitor combinations are emerging that aim to enhance the treatment landscape, providing deeper responses to a broader population of patients with the continued hope of providing disease modification and improving long-term outcomes. In this review, we highlight several specific areas of unmet need within MF. Subsequently, we review agents that target those areas of unmet need, focusing specifically on the JAK inhibitors, momelotinib, pacritinib, itacitinib, and NS-018 as well as JAK inhibitor combination approaches using CPI-0610, navitoclax, parsaclisib, and luspatercept.
The Impact of Baseline Risk Factors on the Incidence of Febrile Neutropenia in Breast Cancer Patients Receiving Chemotherapy with Pegfilgrastim Prophylaxis: A Real-World Data Analysis
Authors: Li Edward , Schroader Bridgette Kanz , Campbell David , Campbell Kim , Wang Weijia
Published: June 2021

Background: There are sparse data addressing whether standard risk factors for febrile neutropenia (FN) are relevant in patients receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy and primary prophylaxis for FN, which would have implications for variables to consider during real-world comparative analyses of FN incidence. Objective: To assess the impact of baseline patient-specific risk factors and regimen risk on the incidence of FN in patients receiving pegfilgrastim primary prophylaxis. Methods: This was a retrospective observational study in patients with breast cancer (BC) who received myelosuppressive chemotherapy and prophylactic pegfilgrastim identified January 1, 2017-May 31, 2018 from MarketScan® research databases. The outcomes were defined as incidence of FN in the first cycle and among all cycles of chemotherapy using three different definitions for FN. Logistic regression and generalized estimating equations models were used to compare outcomes among patients with and without patient-specific risk factors and among those receiving regimens categorized as high-, intermediate-, or other-risk for FN (low-risk or undefinable by clinical practice guidelines). Results: A total of 4460 patients were identified. In the first cycle of therapy, patients receiving intermediate-risk regimens were at up to 2 times higher risk for FN across all definitions than those receiving high-risk regimens (P<0.01). The odds ratio for main FN among patients with ≥4 versus 0 risk factors was 15.8 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.5, 169.4; P<0.01). Patients with ≥3 FN risk factors had significantly greater risks for FN across all cycles of treatment than those with no risk factors; this was true for all FN definitions. Discussion: The choice of FN definition significantly changed the impact of risk factors on the FN outcomes in our study, demonstrating the importance of evaluating all proxies for true FN events in a database study. This is particularly important during real-world study planning where potential missteps may lead to bias or confounding effects that render a study meaningless. Conclusions: In patients with BC receiving chemotherapy with pegfilgrastim prophylaxis, patient-specific risk factors and regimen risk levels are determinants of FN risk. In real-world studies evaluating FN incidence, it is imperative to consider and control for these risk factors when conducting comparative analyses.

The purpose of this article is to study the factors that have a direct impact on improving the quality of life through improving public administration in the field of health care. In the course of our research are considered the following aspects: significant economic and social aspects of the medical sphere that affect the quality of life; a list of public services that are of significant public interest and have the greatest impact on quality of life, methodological approaches to assessing the quality of life, the main problems and possible ways to improve public health policy to improve the quality of life. To achieve the objectives of the study, several statistical indicators were selected and a number of statistical methods of analysis were used: pairwise correlation, regression analysis, methods of comparison, synthesis and comparison. Statistical analysis was conducted according to the countries of the European continent, which belong to different social models. An economic-mathematical model of the dependence of the Quality of Life Index on the factors of public management of medical services has been built, which shows that the increase in the Quality of Life Index by 70.2% is due to the level of state funding, insurance and the number of hospital beds. One of the main conclusions is the fact that the Health Index, along with the Purchasing Power Index, have the greatest positive impact on the quality of life of the population. According to the results of the regression analysis, it was found that that the most statistically and practically significant factor of the linear dependence of the studied indicators of public health services management on the Quality of Life Index is public expenditures in the field of health care. In this context, public policy should be mainly aimed at addressing the problems of efficient allocation of resources and fragmentation of policies and strategies for the development of effective socio-economic systems for providing quality health services to ensure a high level of quality of life.

Background: Helminthiases are health problems worldwide including Thailand. People with helminth infections can develop gastrointestinal symptoms, general malaise and weakness, malnutrition, and impaired growth and physical development. Early detection of behaviors are necessary to prevent helminthiasis and the improve the quality of life further. This study aimed to investigate the risk behaviors and its association with their history regards helminthiasis.Methodology: A cross sectional study was conducted among 15,253 people in 76 provinces, Thailand during January and July 2019. A cluster random sampling was used to select the participants. Constructive questionnaire was used to measure demographic data, risk behavior, past medical history of helminthiases. Multiple logistic regression was used to analyze associations.Results: The risk behaviors regard helminthiases in Thai people were agriculture working with barefoot (19.44%), unsanitary defecation (15.61%), outside walking barefoot (8.96%), consumption of papaya salad mixed with raw fermented fish (11.99%), raw pickled cyprinoid fish (1.67%), and raw minced cyprinoid fish (1.53%), respectively. Raw cyprinoid fish consumption was significantly associated with increased risk of liver fluke infection. Barefoot during works or contact soils was significantly associated with hookworm infection. Unwashed hand and unsanitary defecation were significantly associated with A. lumbricoidesinfection.Conclusion: The rate of some risk behaviors was relatively high in Thailand. National survey for all risk factors are important to improve in access to service, optimization of public health management, reduction in risk factors, and increased quality of life in Thai people.

Published: June 2021

Background: Limited access to health services can occur because an area is difficult to reach, lack of health personnel and facilities, and due to social changes such as during a pandemic. This systematic review aims to study the effectiveness of telemedicine as an antenatal care supplement in increasing the knowledge of pregnant women.Methods: Perform a search for PubMed, ProQuest, and Scopus data sources with population-based keywords, intervention, comparison, and predefined results. The assessment of article quality used the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) critical assessment tool.Results: Four studies were synthesized in this systematic review, 2 were experimental studies and the other 2 were descriptive studies. The intervention that was given was the use of telemedicine as a tool to deliver health education or a tool to monitor the physical condition of the mother from a distance. The message given can be in the form of a written message, voice message, or video. Interactive communication between mothers and health care providers can be done with this technology.Conclusion: The application of telemedicine as an effort to increase the knowledge of pregnant women in settings with difficult access to health facilities and pandemic conditions is quite developing, but still requires further study regarding pregnancy outcomes. Further research is needed on the use of telemedicine concerning health costs and costs incurred by both parties. In Indonesia, there are still opportunities to develop telemedicine conceptually and the technology that will be used.

Published: June 2021

Background: Hypertension is one of the most important causes for cardiovascular disease (CVD) which poses a major public health challenge. Rule of Halves in hypertension has long been used as a standard referral point for level of awareness, treatment& control of blood pressure in general population considering it to be 50 percent at each level. Aim and Objectives: To validate “Rule of Halves”, for updated teaching to medical and nursing students and formulation of appropriate strategies for prevention and control of Hypertension at community level. Methodology: A cross section survey was conducted covering all households in the randomly selected 30 villages of district Dehradun, Uttarakhand by house-to-house visit. A pre-validated, structured questionnaire was used for capturing data.Hypertension was defined as Systolic Blood pressure -140mmHg or greater &/or Diastolic Blood pressure of 90mm Hg or greater or both or treatment with antihypertensives.Result: Out of 1946 screened, 39 percent (749) were found hypertensive. Out of them, less than half (43.5%) were aware,more than 2/3rd(87.1%) were under treatment and approximately one third were well controlled (36.2%) with given treatment.Age more than 40 years, female gender and self-employment were found significant factors after adjusting the confounding factors for hypertension in binary logistic regression analysis.Conclusion: Hypertension was more among younger age group and females had better control of Hypertension. Awareness regarding hypertensive status is still less than fifty percent, but those who are aware, majority of them are on treatment, but control on given treatment is far from optimal.

Algorithms for the automated correction of vertical drift in eye-tracking data
Authors: Carr Jon W. , Pescuma Valentina N. , Furlan Michele , Ktori Maria , Crepaldi Davide
Published: June 2021

A common problem in eye-tracking research is vertical drift—the progressive displacement of fixation registrations on the vertical axis that results from a gradual loss of eye-tracker calibration over time. This is particularly problematic in experiments that involve the reading of multiline passages, where it is critical that fixations on one line are not erroneously recorded on an adjacent line. Correction is often performed manually by the researcher, but this process is tedious, time-consuming, and prone to error and inconsistency. Various methods have previously been proposed for the automated, post hoc correction of vertical drift in reading data, but these methods vary greatly, not just in terms of the algorithmic principles on which they are based, but also in terms of their availability, documentation, implementation languages, and so forth. Furthermore, these methods have largely been developed in isolation with little attempt to systematically evaluate them, meaning that drift correction techniques are moving forward blindly. We document ten major algorithms, including two that are novel to this paper, and evaluate them using both simulated and natural eye-tracking data. Our results suggest that a method based on dynamic time warping offers great promise, but we also find that some algorithms are better suited than others to particular types of drift phenomena and reading behavior, allowing us to offer evidence-based advice on algorithm selection.
Critical analysis of the regulatory requirements for carbon dioxide fire extinguishing in the tanks with oil products
Authors: Копылов Сергей Николаевич , Смирнов Николай Васильевич , Казаков Алексей Васильевич
Published: June 2021

Показана недостаточность обоснования расчетных параметров установок углекислотного пожаротушения, приведенных в нормативной документации для случая противопожарной защиты резервуаров с нефтью и нефтепродуктами. Применение углекислоты для пожаротушения в резервуарах с нефтью и нефтепродуктами приведет к формированию больших зон загазованности, опасных для присутствующих людей и выводящих из строя технику, участвующую в тушении.

Experimental background of the regulatory requirements for carbon dioxide automatic fire extinguishing systems to protect fuel tanks is analyzed. It is shown that justification of the design parameters of such systems is not sufficient. Experimental data on carbon dioxide fire extinguishing in the fuel tanks having a volume of more than 5000 m are unknown, so there is an unjustified normative expansion of the scope of application of CO fire extinguishing systems for the protection of big tanks with oil and petroleum products. There has not been investigated the issue of CO efficiency at high air temperature and in the presence of wind. It is also shown that there is a very short period of time since the moment of ignition till the moment of activation of extinguishing system during which automatic carbon dioxide fire suppression has conditionally confirmed effectiveness. Even a small delay in activation of the system or late detection of a fire will make CO ineffective. The use of carbon dioxide to extinguish fires in tanks with oil and petroleum products will lead to formation of large areas of gas contamination which are dangerous for people and also disable the equipment involved in fire fighting. Thus, it is possible to conclude that the design parameters of carbon dioxide fire extinguishing systems specified in the regulatory documentation for the case of fire protection of tanks with oil and petroleum products are insufficiently justified.

Research Question (RQ): What are the advantages and disadvantages of teamwork at distance? Purpose: To explore the advantages and disadvantages of teamwork at a distance and to find the reasons for successful or unsuccessful work at a distance. Method: With the help of an integrative review of the literature or already done research in this field and with the collection of data, we investigated the advantages and disadvantages of teamwork at a distance. To obtain data, we used a qualitative method, a compilation method with which we summarized the results of other authors on this topic, a comparative method for comparing the advantages and disadvantages of teamwork at a distance and a deductive method with which we infer individual cases in general. Results: The results of all surveys do not differ significantly, as the advantages and disadvantages of teamwork at a distance of employees depend on similar parameters: working hours, age, position in the company, infrastructure, possibilities of combining work and family. Organization: The impact on the organization is strong as it allows the organization to achieve better employee productivity, they can have a flexible work schedule, the organization does not have high costs with physical offices and with the cost of transporting employees to work. It is also important that organizations are aware of the importance of the benefits of teleworking and encourage productivity, innovation, and that the leader rewards them accordingly. Society: Theoretical part starting points guide society to the use of telework and teamwork, as more people together can do much more, improve, innovate. Teleworking has a positive effect on employees. Originality: The originality of the research is reflected in the breakdown of the advantages and disadvantages of teamwork at a distance. The topic focused on highlighting the benefits of teamwork at a distance, which greatly contributes to the development of the company. Limitations/Future Research: To get a broader view of the advantages and disadvantages of teamwork at a distance, more literature would need to be examined. For further research, we should explore the various costs that threaten companies in terms of introducing telework and ways to help companies and employees work remotely in a team.

In this study, the intracellular β-galactosidases of Bacillus subtilis 4NK and Bacillus paralicheniformis 5NK isolated from Bingöl Binkap hot spring was partially purified and characterized. As a result of purification, the yield of the enzyme for B. subtilis 4NK was 85.2% and the purification fold was 2.8. The yield for B. paralicheniformis 5NK was 76.8% and the purification fold was 2.0. The optimum temperature of the enzyme was determined as 45 oC for B. subtilis 4NK and 55 oC for B. paralicheniformis 5NK and the optimum pH was 6.0 for both. In addition, in the thermal stability experiments even at the end of 120 min both enzymes were stable at 50 oC. It was determined that the partially purified enzyme activity increased in the presence of iodoacetamide and phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride for B. subtilis 4NK, dithiothreitol, N-ethylenemaleimide and phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride for B. paralicheniformis 5NK. The metals were found to activate the enzyme at low concentrations of Co2+, Cd2+ and Mn2+ for B. subtilis 4NK, Cu2+ and Cd2+ were found to inhibit the enzyme at high rates for B. paralicheniformis 5NK. Km and Vmax values for 4NK and 5NK, respectively; 23.80 mM, 1.978 μmol/min and 5.61 mM, 1.869 μmol/min.

FROM VALUE CO-CREATION TO POSITIVE EXPERIENCES AND CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. A CUSTOMER PERSPECTIVE IN THE HOTEL INDUSTRY
Authors: Solakis Konstantinos , Peña-Vinces Jesús , Lopez-Bonilla Jesús M. , Aguado Luis F.
Published: June 2021

This study evaluates whether the Value Co-creation (VCC) process in hotels contributes to positive guest experience and satisfaction. This paper utilizes the DART model (Dialogue, Access, Risk, and Transparency) as the main framework to explore VCC in hotels. This research is the first to both adjust the DART model to a customer’s viewpoint and evaluate it in the hotel context. The included data is derived from 484 international tourists lodged in Greek hotels and is analyzed with the structural equation modeling technique. Results suggest that the Dialogue component of DART does not affect the positive experience, while Access, Transparency, and Risk Assessment do, in fact, strongly influence tourist satisfaction. The current study enriches and consolidates VCC–DART theory in the hotel context.

We present molecular line observations of 13CO and C18O J = 3 − 2, CN N = 3 − 2, and CS J = 7 − 6 lines in the protoplanetary disk around TW Hya at a high spatial resolution of ∼9 au (angular resolution of 0.″15), using the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array. A possible gas gap is found in the deprojected radial intensity profile of the integrated C18O line around a disk radius of ∼58 au, slightly beyond the location of the au-scale dust clump at ∼52 au, which resembles predictions from hydrodynamic simulations of planet–disk interaction. In addition, we construct models for the physical and chemical structure of the TW Hya disk, taking account of the dust surface density profile obtained from high spatial resolution dust continuum observations. As a result, the observed flat radial profile of the CN line intensities is reproduced due to a high dust-to-gas surface density ratio inside ∼20 au. Meanwhile, the CO isotopologue line intensities trace high temperature gas and increase rapidly inside a disk radius of ∼30 au. A model with either CO gas depletion or depletion of gas-phase oxygen elemental abundance is required to reproduce the relatively weak CO isotopologue line intensities observed in the outer disk, consistent with previous atomic and molecular line observations toward the TW Hya disk. Further observations of line emission of carbon-bearing species, such as atomic carbon and HCN, with high spatial resolution would help to better constrain the distribution of elemental carbon abundance in the disk gas.
Diffusion of Cosmic Antiprotons Generated throughout the Dark Matter Halo—A Semianalytical Solution for a Linear Galactic Wind Model
Authors: Yang Kwei-Chou
Published: June 2021

The public GALPROP code gives a fully numerical solution for the spectrum of cosmic rays propagating through a linear Galactic wind directed outward from the Galactic plane in the framework of a cylindrical diffusion model. Alternatively, for the linear Galactic wind case, we present a semianalytical solution of the two-zone cylindrical model that describes the spectrum of cosmic-ray antiprotons produced from the primary sources throughout the dark matter (DM) halo. While the secondary antiprotons can be generated by, e.g., the GALPROP WebRun, consistently using this semianalytical solution for the primary ones would be helpful to build a suited DM model, which may be sophisticated, and then to perform a statistical analysis when comparing it with data. As an example, using the obtained formula, we study the possible DM signal through the channel

and its constraint from the measurement of the AMS-02 antiproton-to-proton ratio. The indication of the DM signal is discussed. The advantages of the semianalytical approach and its comparison with the GALPROP model are presented.
Intestacy Laws and the Influences of Colonialism – The Case of Kenya, in Comparison with the English and Australian Laws of Succession
Authors: Kaunda Kodiyo Kenneth
Published: June 2021

Intestacy law is derived from the traditional values, but it can be also under the influences of societies across the world. As a field of private law, the law of intestate succession can, in the long run, resist the non-voluntary, i.e., imposed reception of such rules of and forced by a coloniser. Compared to the flexible regulations, e.g., of the law of obligations, which are therefore more capable of legal transplant, intestate succession is based on deeply enrooted customs of a nation. Thus, these rules can rigidly persist under the pressure of colonisation. Kenya and Australia, two countries with significant differences in their cultural and legal traditions, were, in a diverse way, colonised by England. The article analyses the intestacy laws in these three countries, with the emphasis on Kenya. It especially discusses the reasons for pushing for strong intestacy laws to protect the widow in Kenyan Laws compared with the Australian and English Laws.
