Sharing intermediate datasets from systematic reviews
Authors: Lubiana Tiago , Amaral Olavo Bohrer , Neves Kleber
Published: November 2021

Thousands of systematic reviews are published every year. To conduct a systematic review,researchers spend hours of work extracting data from and about the individual papers that areincluded. This step often leads to the production of spreadsheets with structured data andmetadata about scientific publications, which are the basis for later steps in the project. Thesedatasets will often remain hidden in local folders and unavailable, despite the time invested inproducing them and their potential value. We argue that this is a great opportunity, where asmall amount of additional planning to make these intermediate datasets publicly available canbe valuable to the scientific community, while also allowing authors to be cited and recognized.
Sensitivity of horizontal surface deformation to mantle dynamics from 3D instantaneous dynamics modeling of the eastern Mediterranean region
Authors: Glerum Anne , Spakman Wim , van Hinsbergen Douwe , Thieulot Cedric , Pranger Casper
Published: November 2021

Geodetically estimated surface motions contain contributions to crustal deformation from coupled geodynamic processes active at all spatial scales and constitute key data for lithosphere dynamics research. Data interpretation methods should therefore account for the full range of possible processes, otherwise risking misinterpretation of data signal and incorrect estimation of lithosphere rheology, stress, or deformation fields. Here we explore the sensitivity of surface deformation to sub-lithospheric processes such as viscous plate-mantle and slab-mantle coupling, variations in slab pull, and buoyancy-driven mantle flow. To this end, we perform 3D instantaneous-dynamics numerical modelling of an elaborately structured compressible crust-mantle system designed for the Eastern Mediterranean Aegean-Anatolian region. We first determine a reference model driven by the absolute motions of the major plates, regional slab pull, a 3D mantle buoyancy field, and modulated by plate boundary coupling and mantle viscosity. The RMS motion data fit of ~5.9 mm/yr of predicted and observed Aegean-Anatolian horizontal surface motions demonstrates that the bulk amplitude of surface motion can be explained by these combined mantle processes. Next, by systematically perturbing reference model features, we assess the crustal sensitivity to each geodynamic driver and to mantle rheology. We find significant changes in crustal velocity gradient amplitudes, often between 10% and 40% of the reference model, with slab morphology effects of up to 93%. This demonstrates the key importance of carefully accounting for each process in modelling lithosphere dynamics. For the Aegean-Anatolia region, we present geodynamic evidence that the Aegean slab pull is the primary driver of the crustal motion field, as was previously suggested from kinematic analysis.
Paramedics’ confidence and perceived competence when attending to varied patient presentations: A mixed-method study.
Authors: Waltrich Nicholas , Sheen Jade , Ling Mathew
Published: November 2021

Objective: Paramedics are routinely called to patients presenting with mental health concerns. Previous literature suggests paramedics find this patient group challenging. However, no study has investigated whether paramedics find mental health presentations (MHP) more challenging relative to other patient presentations, or whether certain paramedic variables relate to their perceived ability to manage MHP. This study investigates differences in paramedics’ perceived ability to attend to MHP compared to other patient presentations, and whether their perceived ability is related to their level of experience or location of work (metropolitan or rural). The study also explores paramedic’s experiences and perspectives of MHP. Method: Operational paramedics in Australia (n = 138) completed a survey assessing their perceived ability to respond to mental health, cardiac, respiratory and trauma-related presentations. A repeated measures ANOVA tested differences in perceived ability between these patient presentations. T-tests and Pearson’s correlations were conducted to determine whether years of experience or location of work related to their perceived ability for MHP. Nine paramedics were also interviewed and a thematic analysis conducted to gain insight into paramedic’s experiences and perspectives of MHP.Results: Paramedics reported a significantly lower perceived ability to respond to MHP relative to each other patient presentation measured. No relationships were found between a paramedic’s perceived ability to respond to MHP and their length of work experience or location of work. Interviews with paramedics revealed four superordinate themes: 1) inconsistent conceptualization of their role, 2) feelings of helplessness and frustration, 3) stigmatized views of patients with a mental illness, and 4) inconsistent views of knowledge and learning relating to MHP. Conclusion: Paramedics believe they have a significantly poorer ability to respond to MHP relative to other patient presentations. Education and training focused on defining a paramedic’s role for MHP as well as reducing stigmatized views of patients with a mental illness may improve paramedic’s care of this cohort of patients.

The Covid-19 pandemic has significant socio-economic impacts for all regions in Indonesia, one of which is in Bantul Regency. In anticipation of this impact, Mayungan Hamlet government officials and the community service team made several programs related to the development of grape cultivation in their home yard. With this activity, it is hoped that the community will be able to improve the family economy which was originally declining. The series of activities carried out were mapping of village potentials, outreach, practice, mentoring, and technical guidance. This activity was chosen in order to make it easier for the community to accept new technology with the formulation of planting media made from compost and coconut shell biochar. The obstacle faced during the service was that all activities were carried out during a pandemic where there were restrictions on community activities so that not all participated in this activity. However, all activities were successfully carried out, as evidenced by the 14 invited community representatives, all of whom were present in every activity and there was an increase in community (cognitive) knowledge about grape cultivation.

Published: November 2021

The RF reservoir is a dry gas reservoir located in Northeast java offshore that has been produced since 2018.  The RF reservoir has produced 2 wells with cumulative production until December 2019 is 31.83 BSCF. In January 2018 the gas production rate from the two wells was 36 MMSCFD and the reservoir pressure at the beginning of production was 2449.5 psia, peak production occurred in April 2019 with a gas flow rate of 98 MMSCFD but in December 2019 the gas production rate from both wells decreased to 30 MMSCFD with reservoir pressure decreased to 1607.8 psia. Changes in gas flow rate and pressure in the RF reservoir will affect changes in reservoir performance, so it is necessary to analyze reservoir performance to determine reservoir performance in the future with the material balance method. Based on the results the initial gas in place (IGIP) is 80.08 BSCF. The drive mechanism worked on the RF reservoir until December 2019 was a depletion drive with a recovery factor up to 88% and a current recovery factor (CRF) is 40%. The remaining gas reserves in December 2019 is 39 BSCF and the reservoir will be made a production prediction until December 2032. Based on production predictions of the four scenarios, scenario 2 was chosen as the best scenario to develop the RF reservoir with a cumulative production is 66.1 BSCF and a recovery factor of 82.6%.
Burnout and Race-Related Stress among BIPOC Women K–12 Educators

Published: November 2021

Understanding how best to recruit and retain Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) in the education workforce is critical for human resource practice and scholarship. BIPOC educators are consistently shown to positively influence student outcomes, but leave the workforce at a rate 25% higher than their White colleagues. Emerging research points to school climate as a reason that BIPOC educators leave. Relatedly, researchers find that race-based and gender-based discrimination impact job burnout. Guided by the intersectionality scholarship that acknowledges how women of color experience marginalization across multiple identities, the current study examines how race-based stressors, both in daily life and in the work environment, are associated with job burnout for BIPOC women K–12 educators. Multivariate analyses of data disaggregated from an original survey distributed to BIPOC educators in a predominantly White and rural state ( n = 145, 54.6% women) consistently isolate the effect of a racialized school climate on the burnout of BIPOC women educators. Specifically, when BIPOC women educators perceive their schools to be less open to discussing racial conflict, they report greater job burnout. Although there were no differences in the amount of burnout reported across racial groups, there were differences in the levels of daily racial microaggressions experienced. Notably, only school-based racial stressors emerged as a significant predictor of burnout. We discuss implications for organizational policies on diversity, equity, and inclusion as well as the hiring, retention, and promotion of women of color.

The analysis of existing methods and systems of management of the greenhouse complex is carried out. It has been determined that the most expedient is the development of new methods and control systems that would take into account the mutual influence of microclimate parameters, predicted changes in external natural disturbances and determine the most energy efficient modes of functioning of the greenhouse economy. A systematic analysis of the greenhouse complex at the stages of structural, functional, informational and parametric analysis was carried out. A system of goals and a tree of goals for the energy efficient functioning of the greenhouse complex has been built using the decomposition of goals and objectives and synthesis with the definition of the components of the greenhouse economy. The quantitative and qualitative characteristics of information flows between subsystems have been determined and a model of information flows has been built. For the purpose of carrying out functional analysis and synthesis, the method of mathematical description is used - the theory of graphs. The quantitative and qualitative characteristics of information flows between subsystems have been determined using the construction of a model of information flows. A parametric analysis and synthesis were carried out to determine the main controlled and regulated parameters of the greenhouse complex in order to ensure the maximum efficiency of the control system. Structural analysis and synthesis were carried out with the definition of the components of the greenhouse economy, the interrelationships of the subsystems of the greenhouse complex were analyzed and it was proved that the object under study is a complex system. The directions of further research have been formed for the processes of self-organization and management of information flows of the greenhouse complex, which provide for a plurality of scenarios for further development.

Published: November 2021

Objective: The aim of the current study was to improve the understanding of emotions evoked by food pictures in women with an eating disorder (ED), by distinguishing anorexia nervosa (AN) and bulimia nervosa (BN) diagnoses, while taking into account the caloric content of food and the influence of participants’ nutritional knowledge. Methods: Thirteen AN, 9 BN and 22 healthy controls (HC) women participated in the study. In a laboratory setting, participants first completed self-report questionnaires regarding their affective state. Then, an emotional rating task of food and non-food pictures was performed in order to examine participants’ emotional reactions to these pictures, depending on the caloric value of the food depicted and controlling for internal state. Finally, an energy density ranking task of food pictures was completed to investigate participants’ nutritional knowledge and its influence on their reactions to food. Results: Compared to HC, ED participants experienced more fear towards food, which was neither due to their internal state nor to their nutritional knowledge. In AN, fear occurred towards all food, whereas in BN, fear was observed for high-calorie products only. Conclusion: The key role of food-induced fear in ED was highlighted, particularly in AN.

Sacral insufficiency fractures are a risk of massive bleeding during sacrectomy: patient series
Authors: Kieser David C. , Soltani Scheherezade , Hammer Niels , Koutp Amir , Hughes Eleanor , Reynolds Jeremy J.
Published: November 2021

BACKGROUND

Sacrectomy carries significant risk of bleeding; however, specific risk factors, apart from medical comorbidities and tumor type, for this life-threatening complication remain unclear. This study describes two cases of massive bleeding, including one death during sacrectomy attributable to adherence of the internal iliac vein (IIV) and its neuroforaminal tributaries from sacral insufficiency fractures.

OBSERVATIONS

The authors presented two cases involving patients who received sacrectomy for a chordoma and experienced massive bleeding from the IIV due to adherence of the IIV and its neuroforaminal tributaries around sacral insufficiency fractures. They assessed their institution’s previous two decades’ experience of sacrectomies to determine risk factors for massive bleeding and performed anatomical dissection of 20 hemipelvises, which revealed the close proximity of the IIV to the sacral foraminae and the consistency of neuroforaminal tributaries arising from the foraminae.

LESSONS

Sacral insufficiency fractures may cause scarring that adheres to the IIV and its neuroforaminal tributaries, which risks massive bleeding during sacrectomy.
Results of Comparative Evaluation of Algorithms for Calculating Scaling Factors of Difficult-To-Measure Nuclides in CHNPP Wastes at 241Am Example
Authors:   Institute for Safety Problems of Nuclear Power Plants, NAS of Ukraine, Mykhailov O. V.
Published: November 2021

The criteria for radwaste acceptance valid in the Exclusion Zone of SSE “Chornobyl NPP” require that each batch (package) of solid radioactive waste (SRW) sent for burial be certified. For the radionuclides that are difficult to measure (DTM) with using standard control systems directly in a package, the IAEA recommends using the Scaling Factors (SF). In the course of special studies to determine their quantitative values, some difficulties were encountered when analyzing laboratory data on the DTM nuclide in SRW, which largely consisted of so-called nondetectable (ND) results declared in the reports as <MDA (less than the minimum detectable activity). The work was aimed to evaluate the known algorithms for SF determination used in the world practice of radwaste management, in terms of acceptability of their application to laboratory data sampling with different proportions of ND results (<MDA) on the example of 241Am content in ChNPP historical waste. Three data sampling were formed with the share of ND results equaling to 18, 42 and 55 percent. This work addresses several methods for SF calculation, which are used in radwaste management systems of the countries with developed nuclear fuel cycle. Among the selected algorithms for data process testing, the most powerful one of methods for ND results censoring is included — the method of maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), which allows by restoring the normal law of distribution of random data to most accurately adjust the value of mean contaminant content according to the probability of appearance of each of measurement results, with taking into account the added ND results after their censoring by a numerical value multiple of MDA. The possibilities of selected algorithms, from the viewpoint of accuracy of statistical indicators’ reproduction in the initial arrays of experimental data sampling with SF application, were investigated on “problematic” data sampling related to 241Am content in ChNPP historical waste. The studied algorithms are ranked according to the quantitative scale of acceptability (reliability) assessment for each of them for the use in radwaste management system of ChNPP for certification of DTM activity contained in the SRW packages. The data obtained allowed drawing conclusions on the most acceptable algorithms that can be recommended for SF calculation, depending on the content of experimental data collected after laboratory control. The influence of data censoring on the accuracy of reproduction of the original spectrum of experimental data for different algorithms is estimated. The validity of use of Mean Activity Method recommended by the IAEA for data sampling, which contains a significant proportion of ND results, was confirmed.
Adaptive Structures and Biomimetic Robots – A Perspective

Published: November 2021

This paper gives an overview of some recent full-scale demonstrations of morphing devices capable of providing innovative capabilities to general systems in changing shape and improving performance significantly during operations. In aeronautics, large progress has been observed over the last few years, meaning that this technology is rapidly transitioning from laboratory scale to high TRL demonstrators. The most advanced concepts already proved to withstand loads with minimal deformation while having the capability to change their geometry to attain additional benefits with respect to their original mission. In the same way, robotics has become one of the most prominent technological trends of the current century. The rapid increase in their use and development has significantly changed our society by gradually replacing a large share of human jobs. Such an evolution is also rapidly accelerating, as technological advances in automation, engineering, artificial intelligence, and machine learning converge. Since both domains involve the integration of actuators, sensors and controllers and face integrity challenges in harsh environments, they may be seen somehow related and probably share a common future. In this article, the authors propose an original view of a possible future scenario that is likely to consider a unique development path for research on adaptive structures and robotics.

Abstract. This study discusses the problem of phytoplankton classification using computer vision methods and convolutional neural networks. We created a system for automatic object recognition consisting of two parts: analysis and primary processing of phytoplankton images and development of the neural network based on the obtained information about the images. We developed software that can detect particular objects in images from a light microscope. We trained a convolutional neural network in transfer learning and determined optimal parameters of this neural network and the optimal size of using dataset. To increase accuracy for these groups of classes, we created three neural networks with the same structure. The obtained accuracy in the classification of Baikal phytoplankton by these neural networks was up to 80%.
politische Ökonomie des Fallpauschalensystems zur Krankenhausfinanzierung

Published: November 2021

Der Artikel befasst sich mit der Vermarktlichung und der Kostensenkungspolitik in den Krankenhäusern. Er zeigt, dass die Zusammenfassung dieser Prozesse unter dem Begriff der »Ökonomisierung« zu kurz greift. Zwar sind die entsprechenden Politiken eng miteinander verbunden. Jedoch stellt die Vermarktlichung eine spezifische Form einer Regierungstechnik dar, in deren Mittelpunkt die Zurückdrängung des demokratischen Einflusses auf die Krankenhauspolitik steht. Abschließend wird argumentiert, dass die Regierungsweise der marktförmigen Steuerung sich aktuell in einer Krise befindet, die dominante Krankenhauspolitik vom Ziel der Kostensenkung und Kapazitätsreduzierung jedoch nicht ablässt.

Das pharmazeutische Forschungs- und Produktionsregime ist strukturell auf Gewinnmaximierung ausgerichtet. Das hat zur Folge, dass bestimmte Bereiche oder Patient*innengruppen mit ihren tatsächlichen oder vermeintlichen Bedarfen fokussiert und andere massiv vernachlässigt werden. Die extremen Ungleichheiten in der Bedarfsdeckung, die bereits vor der Pandemie bestanden, werden durch die Krise noch verschärft. Prozesse der Finanzialisierung führen zu einer weiteren Aufwertung von geistigen Eigentumsrechten und gehen zu Lasten der Verfügbarkeit und Erschwinglichkeit dringend benötigter pharmazeutischer Produkte.

Ansar al-Sharia, established in April 2011, is the most prominent Salafist jihadist organization in Tunisia. At the beginning the movement, which sympathizes with the ideology of al-Qaeda, focused its attention on humanitarian and missionary works. Later it did not balk at using violence to enforce religious norms. The conflict between the Ennahda Government and the organization culminated between May and July, 2013.

The Role of Nuclear Weapons in NATO’s Early Cold War Strategies (1949–1957)
Authors: Kiss Petra
Published: November 2021

Since August 1945 atomic weapons have become significant factors in international relations, every state with great ambitions has aspired to get atomic secrets. The primary goal of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) created in 1949 was – possessing the United States’, a nuclear power’s, security guarantee – to deter the Soviet agression. The first strategic documents of the Alliance were written with this very purpose. However, in the 1950s there was a shift in the allied nations’ policies, which influenced NATO’s strategic thinking as well, so in 1957 a real different strategic concept was adopted. Gaining technological superiority became the most important goal, which led to development and intense production of nuclear weapons. This article examines the emerging role of nuclear weapons and the changing strategy of the Alliance between 1949 and 1957.
Explaining the Evolutionary Dynamics of an Insurgency : T. E. Lawrence and the Art of Tribal Warfare
Authors: Jobbágy Zoltán , Bakos Csaba A.
Published: November 2021

Despite the advances made in social and industrial life hundreds of millions of people world-wide live in social groups that can be described as tribes. These groups translate into segments of societies that have little to do with political entities. Enemies with tribal identity are difficult to defeat, which is due to the inherent dynamics of primitive or tribal warfare that feature a strong similarity with biological evolution. In the case favourable conditions exist, these dynamics can accumulate into victory of the weaker and defeat of the stronger. In order to support this statement the authors use the Arab Revolt (1916–18) as an example, which is excellently explained in the “Seven Pillars of Wisdom” written by T. E. Lawrence.

STEM is the abbreviation of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, and S-STEM is with the addition of the Social Studies discipline. It is thought that getting the views of teachers who have made practical studies on STEM about S-STEM will shed light on both policy-makers and researchers. The aim of the research is to get the views of the primary teachers about S-STEM. This research is a phenomenological study within the scope of basic qualitative research method. Participants of this study are eight primary school teachers. Telephone interviews were used in the interview technique used in this phenomenological study. The data obtained in the research were evaluated by qualitative data analysis. Results were obtained such as the definition of STEM, STEM implementations, dimensions which integrate to STEM, suggestions on integrating social studies to STEM, values and skills which handled with STEM, suggestions for effective S-STEM implementations.
İzmir Cumhuriyet Eğitim Müzesi: 19. Yüzyıldan Günümüze Bir Yapının Hayatta Kalma Serüveni
Authors: ŞİMŞEK ÖZEL Heval
Published: November 2021

Tanzimat Fermanı’nın (1839) ilanını takip eden dönemdeki değişimler, pek çok alanda yenileşmeye gidilmesini gerektirmiştir. Bu dönemde yapılan yasal düzenlemelerin verdiği sivil haklar ve sağladığı olanaklardan yararlanan yabancı, Levanten ve gayrimüslimler kendi eğitim kurumlarını oluşturmuşlardır. 19. yüzyılın ikinci yarısında, geniş ticaret hacmi ile dönemin önemli liman kentlerinden biri olan İzmir’de, belirgin bir fiziksel dönüşümün yanı sıra, başkentte uygulanan pek çok yeniliğin gerçekleştiğini söylemek mümkündür. Kentlerde her millete eşit mülk edinme hakkı tanınmasıyla özellikle sermayenin el değiştirerek artması sayesinde burjuvalaşan gayrimüslimlerin ve yabancılar ile Levantenlerin tercih ettikleri bölgelerde kendi kentsel çevrelerini yaratırken pek çok eğitim yapısı da inşa ettikleri görülür. Aynı zamanda özellikle tüccar kesiminden varlıklı gayrimüslimlerin de küçük ölçekli okullar yaptırdıkları ya da özel konutlarını eğitim amaçlı kullanılmak üzere cemaatlerine bağışladıkları bilinmektedir. Bu çalışmada; söz konusu süreçte İzmir’de inşa edilmiş, ancak banisi ve ilk işlevi tartışmalı olan, hakkında çok az bilgi bulunan, bugün Cumhuriyet Eğitim Müzesi olarak kullanılan bina tanıtılacaktır. Günümüze ulaşan yapının, dönemin mimari faaliyetleri içindeki yeri, İzmir kenti özelindeki önemi ve geçirdiği evreler irdelenecek, koruma süreci ve bugünkü işlevi tartışılacaktır.
uso do galego nas organizacións non gobernamentais para o desenvolvemento
Authors: Domínguez Dono Xesús
Published: November 2021

Neste traballo preténdese ofrecer unha visión xeral do uso da lingua galega nas Organizacións Non Gobernamentais para o Desenvolvemento (ONGD) asentadas en Galicia. Para tal fin realizouse un estudo descritivo a partir dun cuestionario enviado ás ONGD rexistradas oficialmente en terrritorio galego. Os resultados que se obtiveron indican un escaso nivel de galeguización das ONGD asentadas en Galicia. En xeral, a orixe da organización, ou o lugar de asentamento da súa sede central, condicionan un maior uso do galego ou do castelán nas súas actividades, detectándose que entre as de sede galega o emprego do galego está próximo ao 70%, fronte a tan só un aproximado 43% nas de sede con orixe non galega. Sen diferenciar o lugar de asentamento das sedes centrais, a utilización de ambas as linguas está moi parella: arredor dun 57% para o galego e dun 43% para o castelán.
'Olla e mira', dous marcadores discursivos en tres linguas: portugués, galego e español
Authors: Domínguez Portela Soraya
Published: November 2021

Neste traballo preséntase unha descrición do funcionamento dos marcadores discursivos (MD) olla / olha en galego e portugués e mira en galego e español. Polo tanto, este é un traballo encadrado na liña de investigación da análise do discurso, combinada coa lingüística contrastiva. Nestas páxinas trátanse de maneira principal a cuestión de por que certas formas dos verbos de percepción adoitan desenvolver unha función discursiva, o funcionamento e os valores dos MD olla / olha e mira nun corpus exemplos das tres linguas, e mais os contrastes existentes entre elas. De maneira máis específica, analizaranse as diferenzas entre olla e mira en galego e as súas causas.
Gallaica lingua: Quo vadis?
Authors: González González Manuel
Published: November 2021

Na primeira parte deste texto faise unha revisión dos puntos débiles máis importantes da lingua galega neste momento, tanto no que se refire ao status, coma ao corpus. Analízanse, entre outros, aspectos como a perda de transmisión familiar, o aumento do monolingüísmo castelán, o proceso de urbanización, o papel da escola, a situación nos medios de comunicación e no mundo empresarial, a percepción social de que o galego é unha lingua pouco útil ou a baixa calidade do galego utilizado por sectores que actúan como referentes sociais. Fronte a isto contrapóñense iniciativas normalizadoras postas en marcha nos últimos anos, que, aínda sendo moi positivas, son insuficientes para frear o proceso de desgaleguización da nosa sociedade.
voltas con 'cerca de', a valoración aproximativa e os complementos de medida
Authors: Domínguez Noya Eva María
Published: November 2021

O intento de axustar a categorización de cerca seguido de frase preposicional con de no ámbito da localización espacial, en contra-posición co da localización temporal e a valoración aproximativa, lévame a profundar sobre estes últimos usos no galego actual. A súa presenza, ademais, en expresións cuantitativas con verbos de medida, distancia e duración provoca que revise a problemática clasificación sintáctica dos denominados complementos de medida e que cuestione tanto a catalogación preposicional de cerca de como a de complemento directo, cuestións ambas para as que creo que o galego achega datos interesantes.
