Factors Affecting Patient and Physician Engagement in Remote Health Care for Heart Failure: Systematic Review
Authors: Al-Naher Ahmed , Downing Jennifer , Scott Kathryn A , Pirmohamed Munir
Published: January 2022

Background

Adult chronic heart failure mainly affects an elderly population with multiple comorbidities that often require frequent medical visits to prevent poor health outcomes. However, the heart failure disease process reduces their independence by reducing mobility, exercise tolerance, and cognitive decline. Remote care technologies can bridge the gap in care for these patients by allowing them to be followed up within the comfort of their home and encourage their self-care. However, patients, carers, and health care professionals need to engage with the technology for it to be useful.

Objective

This systematic review explores qualitative primary studies of remote care technologies used in heart failure, to determine the factors that affect user engagement with the technology. This is explored from the perspective of patients, carers, and health care professionals.

Methods

Relevant studies published between January 1, 1990, and September 19, 2020, were identified from EMBASE, Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Scopus. These studies were then synthesized using thematic analysis. Relevant user experiences with remote care were extracted using line-by-line coding. These codes were summarized into secondary codes and core concepts, which were further merged into overarching themes that encapsulate user experience with remote care.

Results

The review included 47 studies, which led to the generation of 5 overarching themes that affect engagement: (1) “Convenience” relates to time saved by the intervention; (2) “Clinical Care” relates to perceived quality of care and health outcomes; (3) “Communication” involves feedback and interaction between patients, staff, and carers; (4) “Education” concerns the tailored information provided; and (5) “Ease of Use” relates to accessibility and technical barriers to engagement. Each theme was applied to each user base of patient, carer, and health care professional in a different manner.

Conclusions

The 5 themes identified highlight aspects of remote care that facilitate engagement, and should be considered in both future design and trials evaluating these technologies.
The Impact of Savings and Credit Cooperatives (SACCOs) on Sustainable Livelihoods in Rural Communities
Authors: W. Moyo, , D. Gasva,
Published: January 2022

This study sought to assess the impact of savings and credit cooperatives (SACCOs) on rural sustainable livelihoods using the case of Nekatambe Ward 13 in Hwange district of Matabeleland North province in Zimbabwe. The study adopted a qualitative approach and a descriptive research design which were consistent with the research problem. Using convenience and purposive sampling, local leaders, non-governmental organisation (NGO) officials and members of the existing SACCOs were selected as respondents. The major findings were that SACCOs played a significant role in sustaining rural livelihoods particularly through enabling members to fend for themselves and their families. In addition, NGOs helped cooperatives through capacitating members with knowledge and technical skills and that SACCOs impacted positively on sustaining rural livelihoods. However, quite a number of challenges are associated with SACCOs in their bit to sustain rural livelihoods; with the major ones being failure to recover loans, competition from more established cooperatives, lack of start-up capital, poor financial and managerial skills and the general national economic meltdown. From the study findings, the researchers concluded that, despite the challenges associated with SACCOs, their existence under members’ resilience, has generally improved the lives of people in rural communities to generate employment, boost food production, send their children to school and empower the marginalized among other positive developments. Accordingly, the researchers recommend that SACCOs should diversify their operations and invest in fixed assets in order to curtail challenges and make lucrative benefits that can sustain their families and communities. On the other hand, the government and other concerned stakeholders should support SACCOs in order to alleviate the possible challenges that cripple them in their bid to promote rural livelihood sustainability.

Abstract: In todays world during this pandemic situation Online Learning is the only source where one could learn. Online learning makes students more curious about the knowledge and so they decide their learning path . But considering the academics as they have to pass the course or exam given, they need to take time to study, and have to be disciplined about their dedication. And there are many barriers for Online learning as well. Students are lowering their grasping power the reason for this is that each and every student was used to rely on their teacher and offline classes. Virtual writing and controlling system is challenging research areas in field of image processing and pattern recognition in the recent years. It contributes extremely to the advancement of an automation process and can improve the interface between man and machine in numerous applications. Several research works have been focusing on new techniques and methods that would reduce the processing time while providing higher recognition accuracy. Given the real time webcam data, this jambord like python application uses OpenCV library to track an object-of-interest (a human palm/finger in this case) and allows the user to draw bymoving the finger, which makes it both awesome and interesting to draw simple thing.

Optimization Techniques to Solve Travelling Salesman Problem Using Machine Learning Algorithms
Authors: S Prince Nathan
Published: January 2022

Abstract: Travelling Salesmen problem is a very popular problem in the world of computer programming. It deals with the optimization of algorithms and an ever changing scenario as it gets more and more complex as the number of variables goes on increasing. The solutions which exist for this problem are optimal for a small and definite number of cases. One cannot take into consideration of the various factors which are included when this specific problem is tried to be solved for the real world where things change continuously. There is a need to adapt to these changes and find optimized solutions as the application goes on. The ability to adapt to any kind of data, whether static or ever-changing, understand and solve it is a quality that is shown by Machine Learning algorithms. As advances in Machine Learning take place, there has been quite a good amount of research for how to solve NP-hard problems using Machine Learning. This reportis a survey to understand what types of machine algorithms can be used to solve with TSP. Different types of approaches like Ant Colony Optimization and Q-learning are explored and compared. Ant Colony Optimization uses the concept of ants following pheromone levels which lets them know where the most amount of food is. This is widely used for TSP problems where the path is with the most pheromone is chosen. Q-Learning is supposed to use the concept of awarding an agent when taking the right action for a state it is in and compounding those specific rewards. This is very much based on the exploiting concept where the agent keeps on learning onits own to maximize its own reward. This can be used for TSP where an agentwill be rewarded for having a short path and will be rewarded more if the path chosen is the shortest.

Self-service versus human interaction in private consumption: The moderating role of brand personality
Authors: Lee Seojin Stacey , Park Kiwan , Kim Yaeri
Published: January 2022

We explored how consumer attitudes toward service delivery types (selfservice technology vs. face-to-face) differ in a private consumption context depending on the brand personality (underdog brand vs. topdog brand). Using banking service (Study 1) and hotel service (Study 2) scenarios,
we empirically investigated the interaction effects between service delivery types and brand personalities on consumer attitudes. The results indicate that for humanized underdog brands consumers showed a more positive attitude toward self-service technologies than toward face-to-face services.
However, for the top-dog brands there were no significant moderation effects. Thus, when managers in the marketing field are planning to regulate new directions for their service policy, they need to be very cautious by considering both consumption context and brand personality. We have theoretically
and practically expanded the existing literature on service delivery by focusing on private consumption services.
Gandhi King Ikeda - Peacebuilders Exhibition
Authors: Andrea Moneta
Published: January 2022

This exhibition was designed by the author at Nottingham Trent University, Newton Building (2-5 May 2017) and Broadway Cinema Gallery (6-12 May 2017) in Nottingham, UK. Commissioned and funded by the UK branch of Soka Gakkai International, a worldwide network of lay Buddhists; it was inaugurated by the Lord Mayor of Nottingham, Councillor Mohammed Saghir, NTU Vice Chancellor Edward Peck and SGI-UK General Director Robert Harrap.
The exhibition, originally conceptualised by Dr. Lawrence Carter, Dean of Martin Luther King Jr. International Chapel, USA, has not been just focused on the life and work of these three extraordinary men, but was especially aimed at realising a physical space to start a process of inner transformation as an individual, as an initial to act to change society and the environment.
Moneta selected and designed for two locations as places for dialogues about peace: Nottingham Trent University, for its fundamental role in education as a key to improve social cohesion; the Broadway Gallery in the Lace Market, to promote an active role for peace in the heart of social and cultural life of Nottingham.
Featuring photos and information about Mohandas K. Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., and Daisaku Ikeda, viewers had the chance to engage with lofty ideals and principles within the grasp of their own daily existence, but also to explore the significance of true dialogue with an opportunity to listen, meet and share thoughts with others.
Based on Ikeda’s philosophy of ‘inner disarmament’ and ‘human revolution’, a Conversation Cafe’ has been designed as an invitation to partake in ‘Dialogues’, for listening to self and others in a safe environment. The number and quality of these ‘Dialogues’ and their feedback demonstrated the importance of establishing a direct connection with each single person visiting the Exhibition to promote action for peace.

Published: January 2022

Objectives: Women with Down syndrome (DS) suffer from several health
issues, however, their fecundity is not affected. Despite that, there
are no studies in the literature to address pregnancy, delivery, or
neonatal outcomes among women with DS. Design: We conducted a
retrospective study using the Health Care Cost and Utilization
Project-Nationwide Inpatient Sample Database over 11 years from 2004 to
2014. Methods: A delivery cohort was created using ICD-9 codes. ICD-9
code 758.0 was used to extract the cases of maternal DS. Pregnant women
with DS (study group) were matched based on age and health insurance
type to women without DS (control) at a ratio of 1:4. A multivariant
logistic regression model was used to adjust for statistically
significant variables (P-value < 0.5). Results: There were a
total of 9,096,788 deliveries during the study period. Of those, 185
pregnant women were found to have DS. The matched control group was 740.
Maternal pregnancy risks mostly did not differ between those with and
without DS including pregnancy-induced PIH, gestational diabetes,
preeclampsia, PPROM, chorioamnionitis, cesarean section, operative
vaginal delivery, or blood transfusion (P >0.05, all).
However, they were at extremely increased risk of delivering prematurely
(aOR 3.86, 95% CI 1.25-11.93), and to have adverse neonatal outcomes
such as small for gestational age (aOR 13.13, 95% CI 2.20-78.41),
intrauterine fetal demise (aOR 20.97, 95% CI 1.86-237.02), and
congenital anomalies (aOR 9.59, 95% CI 1.47-62.72). Conclusion: Women
with DS should be counseled about their increased risk of premature
delivery and adverse neonatal outcomes.
Identification of novel miRNA targets in CHO cell lines and characterization of their impact on protein N-glycosylation

Published: January 2022

CHO cell lines are a workhorse for the production of pharmaceutical
proteins, but show some limitations in the variability and stability of
N-glycosylation profiles. One promising approach to addressing this at
the required systems-level is miRNA, which can regulate a large number
of genes and have predictable targets. Herein, we first identified de
novo 656 potential miRNAs in the CHO genome based on a combination of
literature, database searching, and miRNA sequencing. We further
sequenced mRNA from the same cultures, and used a combination of
mRNA-miRNA correlation analysis, target prediction and literature
searches to find miRNAs potentially targeting N-glycosylation. Our ten
best miRNA candidates were subjected to miRNA overexpression, knockdown,
or knock-out in CHO cell lines. Out of the ten candidates, four
(miR-128, miR-34c, miR-30b, and miR-449a) showed positive effects on
N-glycosylation and could be applied directly for CHO cell engineering.
The fact that 40% of the screened targets had a desired effect, and the
prediction of 656 miRNAs illustrates the massive potential of miRNA
engineering in CHO.
Excavated farmland with plastic mulching as a strategy in saving water and controlling soil salinization in dryland agricultural areas

Published: January 2022

Water shortage and soil salinization in gully farmland comprising
sediment deposited farmland (SF) and excavated farmland (EF) have become
a widespread concern in the loess hilly region. A two-year field
experiment was conducted to assess the soil water content (SWC) and salt
content (SSC) and their effect on the spring maize yield and water use
efficiency in SF and EF. Eight treatments comprising flat cropping
without mulching (1), ridge planting without mulching (2), ridge
planting with plastic mulching (3), and ridge planting with straw
mulching (4) were tested in the SF and EF plots, respectively. The
results showed that the yield was higher in SF than EF, whereas the
water use efficiency was significantly higher in EF because the bottom
water flux was 117.4% higher in SF than EF (P < 0.01). A
significant positive correlation was found between the average SWC and
yield (P < 0.01), thereby indicating that the yield was
severely limited by the SWC. Thus, the higher water use efficiency in EF
has important implications for alleviating water scarcity during
agricultural production in this region. The risk of soil salinization
was decreased greatly by treatment 3 where the SSC was decreased in EF
and SF were 0.09 g kg–1 and 0.08 g kg–1, respectively. In addition,
treatment 3 had the most significant impacts on the yield and water use
efficiency. Our study provided appropriate land type and effective
tillage measure for the sustainable development in dryland agricultural
areas.
Two antagonistic effects of flow/mixing on reactive polymer blending
Authors: HU Guo-Hua , JI Wei-Yun , LI Tian-Tian , Cheng Si-Bo , FENG Lian-Fang , GU Xue-Ping , Zhang Cai-Liang
Published: January 2022

Reactive polymer blending is basically a flow/mixing-driven process of
interfacial generation, interfacial reaction for copolymer formation and
morphology development. This work shows two antagonistic effects of
mixing on this process: while mixing promotes copolymer formation by
creating interfaces and enhancing collisions between reactive groups at
the interfaces, excessive mixing may pull the in-situ formed copolymer
out of the interfaces to one of the two polymer components of the blend,
especially when the copolymer becomes highly asymmetrical. As such, the
copolymer may loss its compatibilization efficiency. The mixing-driven
copolymer pull-out from the interfaces is a catastrophic process (less
than a minute), despite the high viscosity of the polymer blend. It
depends on the molecular architecture of the reactive compatibilizer,
polymer blend composition, mixing intensity and annealing. These
findings are obtained using the concept of reactive
tracer-compatibilizer and a model reactive polymer blend.
