Authors: . Ahmad , Shah Ubaid Hussain , Khan Kaif
Published: April 2023

Abstract: Aim is to study the change in reinforcing steel (percentage change) once we change the Importance Factor during the seismic analysis of a building. Importance factor classifies various structures on the basis of value 1 or 1.5 or even more depending on the structure importance. This value is provided in the seismic analysis of a building using STAAD PRO V8i version. The current code gives the Importance Factor value as “1” in case of “general buildings” and “1.5” in case of public or we can say important buildings. It also makes important buildings as heavier sections by increasing design base shear. There is no proof that how this importance factor works or improves the seismic factors of a building. In this study, the aim is to make a simple Bay frame using STAAD PRO for the purpose of analysis under seismic conditions and varying this respective importance factor and noticing the percentage change in steel reinforcement and the type of bars that are being used.

Published: April 2023

Abstract: Predicting poverty level from satellite imagery is a challenging task that has recently been tackled using deep neural networks. The goal of this task is to use satellite images of a specific area to predict the poverty level of the inhabitants living in that area.One approach to solving this task is to use DNN, which are a type of neural network that are well-suited for image classification tasks. The DNNs take in the satellite images as input and extract features from them using a series of convolutional layers. These layers are designed to learn the patterns and features present in the images, such as the presence of roads, buildings, light. Once the DNNs have extracted the relevant features from the images, they pass them through fully connected layers to make the final poverty level prediction. To train these neural networks, a large dataset of satellite images and their corresponding poverty level labels is required. This dataset is used to train the network to make predictions on new, unseen images. The performance of the network can be evaluated using metrics such as accuracy, precision, and recall. Overall, deep neural networks are a powerful tool for predictingpoverty level from satellite imagery, as they are able to automatically learn the relevant features from the images and make accurate predictions.However, the accuracy of the predictions can be limited by the quality andsize of the training dataset.

Published: April 2023

The participation of farmers in agricultural development has been identified as a crucial component for the transfer of knowledge and technology. Access to information on innovative agricultural practices is essential for farmers to implement procedures that support farming. Although active participation can take various forms, physical involvement is not the sole determinant of successful participation. Peatland honey pineapple cultivation has been a long-standing practice, and its production has experienced fluctuations over the years. The decline in honey pineapple production from 2017 onwards poses a challenge for both farmers and the district government, given the crop's potential for development in Galang Village, Mempawah Regency. This research study utilized a sample of 73 individuals and collected data through interviews, observations, and available references. Both quantitative and qualitative analyses were conducted to examine the level of farmers' participation in the development of honey pineapple commodities across three stages: participation, implementation, and evaluation. The study revealed that farmers' participation in the development of honey pineapple commodities at the participation stage fell into the independent category (1.43 >1.96), while at the implementation and evaluation stages, it entered the independent category, with values of 5.29 (>1.96) and 2.96 (>1.96), respectively. Age, education level, and length of farming experience were identified as factors that influenced farmers' participation in the development of honey pineapple commodities.

Authors: PRAISNER T. , CERVO Michele da R.
Published: April 2023

This research presents the care strategies in Child and Adolescent Mental Health (SMIJ) in the municipality of Guamiranga, located in the south-central region of the state of Paraná. We seek to understand which strategies are used, based on the experiences of Community Health Agents (CHA), to identify and monitor children who have demands for mental health care. This research was divided into three stages: accompanying home visits, a focal group with CHAs and an analysis and data systematization utilizing Institucional Analysis. We understand that in order to produce this complex care network for CAMHC, it´s necessary to overcome the logic of personification, especialization and medicalization in the hopes that this care model for the CAMHC becomes a part of the political agenda of the city. The care needs to be based on the logic of co-responsibility and intersectoriality so that it´s not set on education as the place responsible for these issues.

Published: April 2023

Purpose - Most studies on entrepreneurial intention were focused on developed countries. In developing and agriculture-based economies like the Philippines, there is limited entrepreneurial intention studies conducted among university students, who are potential entrepreneurs in the country. This study intends to bridge this gap by providing insights about the entrepreneurial inclination and entrepreneurial intention of Bachelor of Science in Agriculture (BSA) students at the University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB).
Design/Methodology/Approach - Ajzen’s (1991) Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) was utilized to explore factors affecting the entrepreneurial intention of the BSA students. A total of 108 students were surveyed using an online questionnaire, and data analysis tools included Cronbach’s alpha, frequency analysis, chi-square, and binary logistic regression. Data analysis focused on each batch of students.
Findings - The study found that Batch 2012 and below showed a greater number of students with high personal attitude, perceived behavioral control, and entrepreneurial intention. On the other hand, Batch 2015 students exhibited the lowest entrepreneurial intention. Generally, the respondents had high entrepreneurial intention; however, low perceived behavioral control or self-efficacy was also recorded. In terms of entrepreneurial inclination, all batches showed high inclination, except for Batch 2015, where the majority of the students did not have an entrepreneurial role model and had not taken an entrepreneurship course or subject. An equation model was constructed for Batch 2015 students, wherein personal attitude and subjective norm were found to be significant with intention.
Research Implications - The study findings imply the need for certain colleges in UPLB to undertake strategies tailor-fit for addressing gaps in entrepreneurial inclination and intention for every batch.

Methods: Family physicians who graduated from residency programs with routine abortion training from 2015 through 2018 completed an anonymous electronic cross-sectional survey. We measured abortion training, intentions to provide abortion, and practice patterns, and examined differences between underrepresented in medicine (URM) and non-URM physicians using χ2 tests and binary logistic regression.
Results: Two hundred ninety-eight respondents completed the survey (39% response rate), 17% of whom were URM. Similar percentages of URM and non-URM respondents had abortion training and had intended to provide abortions. However, fewer URMs reported providing procedural abortion in their postresidency practice (6% vs 19%, P=.03) and providing abortion in the past year (6% vs 20%, P=.023). In adjusted analyses, URMs were less likely to have provided abortions after residency (OR=.383, P=.03) and in the past year (OR=.217, P=.02) compared to non-URMs. Of the 16 noted barriers to provision, few differences were evident between groups on the indicators measured.
Conclusions: Differences in postresidency abortion provision existed between URM and non-URM family physicians despite similar training and intentions to provide. Examined barriers do not explain these differences. Further research on the unique experiences of URM physicians in abortion care is needed to then consider which strategies for building a more diverse workforce should be employed.

Actualmente el mundo enfrenta una crisis sanitaria a raíz de una enfermedad respiratoria con tendencia creciente, que exige al mundo global disponer dispositivos funcionales, operativos, logísticos y humanos al servicio de la humanidad. A nivel global, la Orga-nización de las Naciones Unidas (ONU) y la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS), disponen medidas, para ampliar los conocimientos científicos sobre este nuevo virus, manifestado como pandemia el 30 de enero de 2020, no obstante, declaran que: “describir la situación como una pandemia no cambia la evaluación de la OMS” Adhanom (2020), es decir los países deben reinventarse y activar esfuerzos que den respuesta a esta crisis.
Variation in patient presentation and the use of computer tomography in the urgent care diagnosis and treatment of peritonsillar abscess
Authors: Bell Christopher , Chau Justin
Published: April 2023

Background

A peritonsillar abscess (PTA) is a collection of infectious material
within the peritonsillar space, seen most often in teenagers and young
adults. The diagnosis of a PTA is reliant on a patient’s history and
physical exam; however, CT scans continue to be used. The rationale for
imaging in the diagnosis of a PTA may be better understood based on
patient presenting symptoms and physical exam findings.

Methods

A retrospective review of adult patients diagnosed with a peritonsillar
abscess in an acute care/emergency setting at a tertiary hospital
between January 1 to December 31, 2019, was performed. Patients were
arranged into two groups: those who underwent a CT scan versus patients
who did not scan as part of their clinical work-up. Patient
demographics, and differences in the rate of subjective and objective
findings were compared.

Results

43 patients were included in the study: 19 in the CT scan group, and 23
in the no-CT scan group. There was no statistically significant
difference in the history of previous peritonsillar abscess incidence,
patient chief complaint at triage, subjective complaints, or objective
physical exam findings. The most common patient reported symptoms in
both groups were odynophagia and dysphagia. The most common objective
findings in both groups included peritonsillar fullness and erythema,
and uvular deviation.

Conclusion

Patients who underwent a CT scan as part of their work-up for a
peritonsillar abscess had no difference in symptoms or physical exam
findings when compared to patients who did not have a CT scan.
High antibiotic resistance in Indian sewage shows distinct trends and might be disjoint from in-situ antibiotic levels

Antimicrobial resistance is raging, but large size of India limits
comprehensive exploration. This demands a sample like sewage, which
could represent a large population and is often reported to harbor
resistant microbes. Here, we did pan-India sewage sampling and studied
the antibiotic resistance pattern in the microbial community. We used
culture-based antibiotic susceptibility assays and estimated the level
of antibiotics present at each site. We found high antibiotic resistance
across all cities of India with more diversity of resistance profiles in
bigger cities as compared to smaller ones. Bacillus and Pseudomonas were
the most common, predominant resistant genera across Indian cities and
many sites harbored multi-drug resistant phenotypes. Antibiotic
concentrations were below recommended limits at all sites and thus high
resistance is not likely caused solely due to antibiotics. Sewage proved
to be a good representative for rapidly studying antibiotic resistance
in a big country and for similar epidemiological strides.
Multi-scale spatial models reveal the interplay of weather and habitat effects on cold-water fish

Climate change impacts cold-water species by altering thermal and flow
regimes. These impacts may vary spatially, depending on habitat quality.
We developed a Bayesian hierarchical model to investigate the effects of
seasonal weather patterns on brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis)
populations occupying suitable and marginal habitats separated by the
Eastern Continental Divide in North Carolina, USA. We specified
weather-related coefficients separately for the Interior and Atlantic
slope populations. We also specified multi-scale random effects to
account for heterogeneity due to nested stream habitats. Our cohesive
framework accommodates depletion sampling data and allows us to infer
variation in capture probabilities between two different sampling
protocols. As expected, we found the Atlantic slope (i.e., marginal
habitats) population sizes were smaller on average than those of the
Interior (i.e., suitable habitats), and the dominant drivers differed
for either side of the Divide. Specifically, juvenile fish on the
Atlantic slope were most adversely affected by high winter flows, and
the Interior juveniles were most adversely affected by high spring
flows. We also identified higher spatial variation than temporal
variation in trout density conditioned on the covariates, where the
primary source of spatial heterogeneity was likely meso-habitat
characteristics of stream segments. Our method allowed us to partition
uncertainty between population dynamics and imperfect detection, and
facilitated scale-specific inference useful to develop management
strategies for a species of conservation concern. This approach is
widely applicable to other lotic species and ecosystems occupying
dendritic habitats.
Comparison of One-Month and Three-Month Paliperidone Palmitate Injections in Terms of Effects and Side Effects
Authors: Kuru Erkan , özdemir ilker
Published: April 2023

Background: Although clinical studies have demonstrated that paliperidon
palmitate-three-month (PP3M), which currently has the longest duration
of action, is an effective, safe and tolerable treatment in
schizophrenia, the number of studies on the long-term efficacy and side
effects (SE) are limited. We aimed to evaluate SE and symptom severity
of paliperidon palmitate-one-month (PP1M)/PP3M and whether the SE
changed in patients who switched from PP1M to PP3M. Methods: 67
individuals who were scheduled to be switched PP1M to PP3M were
consecutively selected by criterion sampling method. Patients who had
been taking PP1M regularly for at least 4 months and then switched to
PP3M at a dose equivalent to this dose and who had been stable on this
form for at least 2 doses at the same dose for at least 4 months were
included. Results: The stabilization phase of patients continued after
switching to PP1M and PP3M treatments. The most common SEs after PP1M
and PP3M were increased fatigability in psychic SEs, hypokinesia and
akathisia in neurological SEs, weight gain and diminished sexual desire
in other SEs. When SE were observed after PP1M and PP3M treatments, the
frequency of constipation decreased with medium to large effect size,
while other SEs changed with small effect size or not at all.
Conclusions: After switching to PP3M treatment no significant worsening
or increase in their SE was observed. Preferring monotherapy as much as
possible at an effective dose and duration may increase the comfort of
patients in terms of SE.
Power System Stability Assessment Method based on GAN and GRU-Attention using Incomplete Voltage Data
Authors: Deng Xuan , Hu Yufan , Jia Yiyang , Peng Mao
Published: April 2023

The social economy is growing rapidly, and the power grid load demand is
increasing. To maintain the stability of the power grid, it is crucial
to achieve accurate and rapid power system stability assessment. In the
actual operation of the power network, data loss is an unavoidable
situation. However, most of the data-driven models currently used assume
that the input data is complete, which has obvious limitations in
real-world applications. This paper suggests an IVS-GAN model to assess
power system stability using incomplete PMU measurement data with random
loss. The proposed method combines the super-resolution perception
technology based on Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) with a
time-series signal classification model. The generator adopts a
one-dimensional U-Net network and uses convolutional layers to complete
and recover missing data. The discriminator adopts a new GRU-Attention
architecture proposed in this paper to better extract voltage temporal
variation features on key buses. The result of this paper is that the
stability evaluation method outperforms other algorithms in high voltage
data loss rates on the New England 10-machine 39-bus system.
