A review of myopia treatment methods and their research progress
Authors: Tian Jiaxin
Published: August 2022

Myopia is a refractive error in which light is focused in front of the retina. In recent years, with the change of people's lifestyle and the widespread use of electronic products, the number of people suffering from myopia is on the rise year by year. Therefore, how to effectively prevent and treat myopia has attracted a lot of attention. At present, the common treatments for myopia mainly include five major categories, such as drug therapy, optical correction, surgery, Chinese medicine treatment and environmental behavior therapy. In this paper, we summarize the latest research advances in myopia through the above five levels in order to provide a reference basis for the development of a more comprehensive and personalized myopia treatment plan in the future.
PLIOCENE AND PLEISTOCENE DEPOSITIONAL ENVIRONMENTS IN THE PESCULUSE AREA (SALENTO, ITALY)
Authors: D'ALESSANDRO ASSUNTA , MASSARI FRANCESCO
Published: August 2022

An integrated sedlmentologic and palaeoecologic approach is used to define the evolving Pliocene, Early and Middle Pleistocene depositional environments in the Pesculuse area. Lower Pliocene deposits show evidence of a quiet outer-shelf setting, apparently not affected by the physiography of the transgressed palaeotopography. In contrast, the onlap of Upper Pliocene carbonate deposits onto topographic highs testifies that sedlmentation was preceded by a block-faulting event. The Late Pliocene transgression flooded a subaerial karstic landscape. A ridge of Cretaceous limestone created a protected enuronment, In which wavy bedforms of exceptional scale, which are thought to result from tsunami surges, were generated and preserved. At this stage, different palaeocommunities settled in several shallow-water micro-environments.
«Tutto parla in termini sessuali»: educazione sessuale, adolescenza e verginità in "Domani è troppo tardi" (1950)
Authors: Busetta Laura
Published: August 2022

This paper analyzes the debate on sexual education emerged in the Italian press following the release of the film “Domani è troppo tardi” (Léonide Moguy, 1950). In Post-War Italy, the theme of sexual knowledge occupies the public discourse, with an emphasis on the control of female sexuality and the affirmation of virginity. Even the iconographic and textual representations of the main character, the sixteen-year-old Anna Maria Pierangeli, trace the stereotypes of virtue and female sacrifice, in line with a traditional morality and the Catholic conception of femininity. The intense debate catalyzed by the film describes adolescence as a hybrid territory: an asphyxiating place characterized by precepts, opinions, clinical observations, and control schemes; but also a transitional stage stimulated by the new sexualization of the cultural industry.
Monitoraggio clinico e complessità assistenziale dei pazienti nel Dipartimento di Emergenza-Accettazione (DEA): aspetti assistenziali e organizzativi
Authors: Trionfetti Erika , Di Pietro Giovanni
Published: August 2022

BACKGROUND: L’analisi della complessità assistenziale si è rivelata necessaria per rispondere al meglio ai bisogni di cura e di assistenza del paziente a livello del pronto soccorso; da qui nasce l'esigenza di monitorare la complessità assistenziale nel Dipartimento di emergenza-accettazione (DEA), in quanto non esistono studi né strumenti che trattano tale argomento in questo contesto.
OBIETTIVI: Mappare la complessità assistenziale dei pazienti ricoverati in DEA presso l'ospedale San Paolo di Milano, verificando l'applicabilità dello strumento e dei metodi già utilizzati per lo studio in pronto soccorso, eventualmente adattandoli al contesto oggetto di studio. A tale scopo l'elaborato presenta una validazione di uno strumento per la rilevazione della complessità assistenziale dei pazienti in DEA, discutendone le implicazioni per la pratica infermieristica.
METODI:Studio osservazionale prospettico, monocentrico su campione di convenienza, con arruolamento di tutti i pazienti con età ≥ 18 anni, ricoverati all'interno del DEA e provenienti dal pronto soccorso del presidio San Paolo.
RISULTATI: Sono stati reclutati 203 pazienti. Lo strumento proposto ha mostrato una soddisfacente consistenza interna (0.71). L'analisi statistica inoltre ha permesso di vedere i bisogni più compromessi dei pazienti presi in esame, in base alla diagnosi di accesso e alle comorbilità.
CONCLUSIONI:Lo strumento proposto può essere dunque utilizzato per monitorare la complessità assistenziale in DEA con integrazione da parte dell'infermiere, di valutazioni che emergono durante il contatto con la persona assistita. In Italia risulta essere l'unico studio che si occupa della complessità assistenziale nel DEA di I° livello.

Vaikuttavuutta yhteisöllisyydellä? Työpaikan tuen merkitys tietojenkäsittelytieteen MOOC-kursseilla
Authors: Salovuori Anton , Pesonen Joonas A. , Polso Kukka-Maaria , Ihantola Petri
Published: August 2022

Aikaisemman tutkimuksen perusteella työpaikan tuki liittyy työssäoppimisen tuloksiin. Avointen ja skaalautuvien (MOOC) verkkokurssien osalta ilmiötä on kuitenkin tutkittu vasta vähän. Selvitimme, miten työssäkäyvät avoimille verkkokursseille osallistuneet opiskelijat erosivat toisistaan työpaikan tuen suhteen, miten osallistujat kuvasivat kurssien vaikutuksia, ja miten työpaikan tuki oli yhteydessä kokemuksiin kurssien vaikutuksista. Kysymyksiin vastattiin analysoimalla noin kuudensadan työssäkäyvän ICT-alan MOOC-kursseja suorittaneen vastaukset sähköpostitse lähetettyyn kyselyyn.

Klusterianalyysin perusteella vastaajat jakautuivat Laajasti tuettuihin, jotka saivat suorittaa kurssia työajallaan ja joiden työyhteisö oli kiinnostunut aiheesta, Työyhteisön huomioimiin, Työaikaa hyödyntäviin, ja Ei-tuettuihin. Näistä Laajasti-tuetut ja Työyhteisön huomioimat kokivat kurssit hyödyllisemmiksi kuin Työaikaa hyödyntävät ja Ei-tuetut. Kurssien vaikutusten laadullisessa analyysissä tunnistettiin mm. seuraavat teemat: ymmärryksen lisääntyminen, hyöty nykyisessä työssä (Ei-tuetut raportoivatodotusarvoa vähemmän), hyöty opinnoissa, halu opiskella lisää, hyöty työuralla jakiinnostuksen lisääntyminen.

Tulokset korostavat työyhteisön sosiaalisen tuen merkitystä avoimilla verkkokursseilla: työajan hyödyntäminen ilman laajempaa yhteisön tukea ei kurssien koetunhyödyn kannalta eroa tilanteesta, jossa tukea ei saa lainkaan. Työyhteisön tuen merkitykseen tulisi kiinnittää huomiota sekä työpaikoilla että verkkokurssien suunnittelussa.

Published: August 2022

Tässä artikkelissa tarkastellaan sitä, millaisia työssä koettuun hyvinvointiin ja työssä suoriutumiseen liittyvät psykologisten perustarpeiden (autonomia, kompetenssi, yhteenkuuluvuus) täyttymisen kokemukset ovat. Haastatteluaineisto (N = 30) kerättiin keväällä 2020 kahdessa tekniikan alan yrityksessä. Analyysimenetelmänä käytettiin temaattista analyysiä. Kolmeksi keskeiseksi työhyvinvointiin liittyväksi teemaksi muodostuivat: 1) Mahdollisuus toimia yksilöllisten arvojen mukaan työssä (autonomia), 2) Työn sopivaksi koettu haastetaso ja mahdollisuus onnistua työssä (kompetenssi); ja 3) Mahdollisuus kokea kuuluvansa joukkoon työelämässä (yhteenkuuluvuus). Kolmeksi keskeiseksi työssä suoriutumiseen liittyväksi teemaksi muodostuivat: 1) Mahdollisuus kehittää työhön liittyviä käytänteitä (autonomia); 2) Mahdollisuus kehittää asiantuntijuutta haasteellisten työtehtävien kautta (kompetenssi); ja 3) Työtehtäviin liittyvän henkisen ja ammatillisen tuen saaminen työtovereilta (yhteenkuuluvuus). Tulokset luovat syvällisempää ymmärrystä psykologisista perustarpeista asiantuntijatyön kontekstissa sekä vahvistavat näkemystä psykologisten perustarpeiden huomioimisen tärkeydestä työelämässä.

La Familia versus The Family: Matriarchal Patriarchies in Peruvian Mormonism
Authors: Palmer Jason
Published: August 2022

By sacralizing the Western categories of gender and kinship and by exalting the husband-centric, nuclear version of family, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints not only alienated its transgender and feminist members, but also its Peruvian families. This study employs ethnographic encounters, kinterm linguistics, and home décor analysis to situate the existence of Peruvian Mormon matriarchies in the context of a phallocentric religion that spanned two strikingly different, patriarchal societies: one in the Southern Andes of Peru and the other in the US state of Utah. Thus situated, the article then dwells on the transcribed oral history of Ofelia, a Peruvian single mother who utilized the power of the male-only Mormon priesthood to preside over her household as the acting matriarch. Ofelia’s fealty to patriarchy during the very enactment of forbidden priestesshood brings to the fore the profound contradictions that some Peruvian Mormons in the late 2010s disentangled as they sought to become legible to their church as participants in eternal families.

Authors:   University Department of Computer Science, University of Mumbai, India, M. G. Mohanan , Ambuja Salgaonkar ,   University Department of Computer Science, University of Mumbai, India
Published: August 2022

A collision-free path to a destination position in a random farm is determined using a probabilistic roadmap (PRM) that can manage static and dynamic obstacles. The position of ripening mushrooms is a result of picture processing. A mushroom harvesting robot is explored that uses inverse kinematics (IK) at the target position to compute the state of a robotic hand for grasping a ripening mushroom and plucking it. The Denavit-Hartenberg approach was used to create a kinematic model of a two-finger dexterous hand with three degrees of freedom for mushroom picking. Unlike prior experiments in mushroom harvesting, mushrooms are not planted in a grid or design, but are randomly scattered. At any point throughout the harvesting process, no human interaction is necessary.

Authors:   Department of Management, Namibia University of science and technology, Windhoek, Namibia, Nikodemus Angula
Published: August 2022

The project sought to provide a paradigm for improving African education systems through the use of the IOT . The created IOT  model for Africa will enable African countries, notably Namibia, to exchange educational content and resources with other African countries. The objective behind the IOT  paradigm in Africa's education sectors is to provide open access to knowledge and information. The study revealed that there are no recognised platforms in African education systems that are utilised by African governments to interact, communicate, and share educational material directly with African institutions. As a result, the current research developed a model for transforming African education systems using the IOT  in the Namibian context, which will serve as a centralised online platform for self-study, new skill acquisition, and self-improvement using materials provided by African institutions of higher learning. Everyone is welcome to use the platform, including students, instructors, and members of the general public

Accounting for people is the first step of every manpower-based organization in today's world. Hence, it takes up a signification amount of energy and value in the form of money from respective organizations for both implementing a suitable system for manpower management as well as maintaining that same system. Although this amount of expenditure for big organizations is near to nothing, rather just a formality, it does not hold as much truth for small organizations such as schools, colleges, and even universities to a certain degree. This is the first point. The second point for discussion is that much work has been done to solve this issue. Various technologies like Biometrics, RFID, Bluetooth, GPS, QR Code, etc., have been used to tackle the issues of attendance collection. This study paves the path for researchers by reviewing practical methods and technologies used for existing attendance systems.

The problem of unemployment among youths has remained unabated. This has cast doubt on the methods of instructions by lecturers. This study takes a critical review of some of the previous studies with an emphasis on employment statistics and employability skills. The paper x-ray the basic elements of employability skills and the latest statistics of youth unemployment in Africa particularly, Nigeria. The aim is to sensitize education managers of higher institutions in Nigeria about the danger inherent in turning out graduates massively without the corresponding skills to match them adequately with the world of work. Findings show that there is a persistent rise in the rate of youth unemployment because what the schools offered is not compliant with the labour market demand. The resulting skills played a significant role in increasing unemployment among Tertiary Education graduates. Therefore, the higher education curriculum needs to be modified to reflect the skills required of employers.

Catholic moral argumentation in favour of absolute prohibition of all types of direct (intentional) abortions is vulnerable in one point, i.e. in case of therapeutic abortions. It is based on the identification of all direct abortions with a direct killing, which the author deems a wrong presupposition based on faulty analysis of an intention of action and distinction between the intention and the side-effect. Following the line of argumentation of New Natural Law Theory, this paper tries to propose modified conservative natural law position in which not all direct abortions are automatically identified with direct killing (although it admits the majority of non-therapeutic abortions involve direct killing). It criticizes the G. E. M. Anscombe?s (and D. Černý?s) objection of closeness of result or immediate result as unsound and her analysis of an example of stuck pot-holer as analogy to craniotomy. The paper presents the author?s own analysis of the stuck pot-holer example and craniotomy based on the argumentation of New Natural Lawyers, particularly of G. Grisez, J. Finnis and J. Boyle (with conviction the analysis is formally in line with conception of intention and doube-effect of Catholic moral tradition including Aquinas and encyclical Veritatis Splendor). Subsequently after the consultation with specialist, gynecologist-obstetrician, it generalizes the conclusion to all therapeutic abortions of vital-conflict type.

This study aimed to determine the relationship between pain intensity and anxiety levels related to surgery in patients scheduled for lumbar surgery due to low back pain. Fifty-seven patients (30 females, 27 males) scheduled for lumbar surgery for various reasons were included in the study. Demographic and clinical information of the patients were recorded. The state of being informed about the surgery and the reasons for anxiety about the surgery were questioned. Pain intensity at rest, in activity, and at night were evaluated using the Visual Analogue Scale and surgery-related anxiety levels with the Spielberg State-Trait Anxiety Inventory preoperatively, postoperatively, and at discharge. Mean age of the patients was 55.00±9.37 years. A statistically significant positive correlation was found between the intensity of rest, activity, night pain, and the anxiety level in the preoperative period (p<0.05). Patients who were informed about surgery had lower anxiety levels (p<0.05). In the postoperative and pre-discharge evaluations, it was observed that there was a significant decrease in pain intensity and anxiety levels compared to the preoperative term (p<0.05). When evaluating the patient in the preoperative period, assessment of the level of anxiety related to surgery and informing about the surgical intervention will decrease the anxiety level and positively affect the postoperative clinical situation.

La pandemia como oportunidad. El Jefe de Gobierno de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires en TikTok
Authors: Acosta Marina
Published: August 2022

La investigación analiza el ingreso del Jefe de Gobierno de Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires a TikTok durante la pandemia. Esta red social representa una novedad para la política, lo que la convierte no solo en un territorio a explorar sino y, fundamentalmente, en un nuevo espacio a conquistar. Desde el punto de vista conceptual, la investigación recupera, por un lado, las discusiones teóricas de la sociología política vinculada a la estructura de oportunidades y, por otro, los desarrollos de la teoría de la comunicación que buscan echar luz sobre el fenómeno del infoentretenimiento. El trabajo se configura como un estudio de caso. Como esta metodología posibilita la utilización de distintas técnicas de recolección de datos y análisis, se ha optado por la triangulación de datos primarios y secundarios. Se utilizaron dos técnicas de recolección de datos: encuesta con cuestionario estructurado, a través del formato IVR, y recolección manual de información del perfil en TikTok. Dentro de los principales hallazgos, se destaca, por un lado, que los usos que les dieron los habitantes del Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires (Amba) a las redes sociales durante el contexto pandémico y las opiniones políticas de los usuarios de TikTok fueron los factores determinantes que le permitieron al Jefe de Gobierno porteño ingresar muy cómodo a la plataforma; y, por otro, que en todas las publicaciones de su cuenta se excluye el contenido formal y serio y se lo reemplaza por formatos cercanos a la informalidad, la simplicidad, la emocionalidad y el humor.
