Authors: Puskaric Miroslav , Chandramouli Balasubramanian , Osmo Thomas , Gusinow Roy , Dellacasa Chiara , Rossi Elisa , Cataudella Salvatore , Górska Anna , Rinaldi Eugenia
Published: August 2024

The motivation behind this research is to perform a privacy-preserving analysis of data located at remote sites and in different jurisdictions with no possibility of sharing individual-level information. Here, we present key findings from requirements analysis and a resulting federated data analysis workflow built using open-source research software, where patient-level information is securely stored and never exposed during the analysis process. We present additional improvements to further strengthen the security of the workflow. We emphasize and showcase the use of data harmonization in the analysis. The data analysis is done using the R language for statistical computing and DataSHIELD libraries for non-disclosive analysis of sensitive data. The workflow was validated against two data analysis scenarios, confirming the results obtained with a centralized analysis approach. The clinical datasets are part of the large Pan-European SARS-Cov-2 cohort, collected and managed by the ORCHESTRA project. We demonstrate the viability of establishing a cross-border federated data analysis framework and conducting an analysis without exposing patient-level information, achieving results equivalent to centralized non-secure analysis. However, it is vital to ensure requirements associated with data harmonization, anonymization and IT infrastructure to maintain availability, usability and data security.

Published: August 2024

Medical errors contribute significantly to morbidity and mortality, emphasizing the critical role of Clinical Guidelines (GLs) in patient care. Automating GL application can enhance GL adherence, improve patient outcomes, and reduce costs. However, several barriers exist to GL implementation and real-time automated support. Challenges include creating a formalized, machine-comprehensible GL representation, and an episodic decision-support system for sporadic treatment advice. This system must accommodate the non-continuous nature of care delivery, including partial actions or partially met treatment goals. We describe the design and implementation of an episodic GL-based clinical decision support system and its retrospective technical evaluation using patient records from a geriatric center. Initial evaluation scores of the e-Picard system were promising, with a mean 94% correctness and 90% completeness based on 50 random pressure ulcer patients. Errors were mainly due to knowledge specification, algorithmic issues, and missing data. Post-corrections, scores improved to 100% correctness and a mean 97% completeness, with missing data still affecting completeness. The results validate the system’s capability to assess guideline adherence and provide quality recommendations. Despite initial limitations, we have demonstrated the feasibility of providing, through the e-Picard episodic algorithm, realistic medical decision-making support for noncontinuous, intermittent consultations.
Open Data-Driven Decision Making: Observations from COVID-19 Minimal Essential Data, Canton Zürich, Switzerland
Authors: Louw Candice
Published: August 2024

This research delves into the relationship between open data and decision making, drawing insights from the utilization of Minimal Essential Data (MED) during the COVID-19 pandemic in Canton Zürich, Switzerland. It examines observations and lessons learned, emphasizing the pivotal role of open data in response to an emergency. Through a case study approach, this article sheds light on the practical implications and observed strategies in publishing open data from digital public health surveillance software. While it is arguable that open data has the potential to enhance data quality in the context of a public health emergency, our findings indicate that it is firstly essential that a Minimal Essential Dataset (MED) is defined and publicly published, an open data publication platform and procedure are secondly in place (ideally following FAIR data principles), and thirdly, that regular data quality reviews are conducted.

Published: August 2024

Due to the importance of COVID-19 control, innovative methods for predicting cases using social network data are increasingly under attention. This study aims to predict confirmed COVID-19 cases using X (Twitter) social network data (tweets) and deep learning methods. We prepare data extracted from tweets by natural language processing (NLP) and consider the daily G-value (growth rate) as the target variable of COVID-19, collected from the worldometer. We develop and evaluate a time series mixer (TSMixer) predictive model for multivariate time series. The mean squared error (MSE) loss on the test dataset was 0.0063 for 24-month Gvalue prediction when using the MinMax normalization with recursive feature elimination (RFE) and average or min aggregation method. Our findings illuminate the potential of integrating social media data to enhance daily COVID-19 case predictions and are applicable also for epidemiological forecasting purposes.
Formalizing and validating Wikidata’s property constraints using SHACL and SPARQL
Authors: Ferranti Nicolas , De Souza Jairo Francisco , Ahmetaj Shqiponja , Polleres Axel
Published: August 2024

In this paper, we delve into the crucial role of constraints in maintaining data integrity in knowledge graphs with a specific focus on Wikidata, one of the most extensive collaboratively maintained open data knowledge graphs on the Web. The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) recommends the Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL) as the constraint language for validating Knowledge Graphs, which comes in two different levels of expressivity, SHACL-Core, as well as SHACL-SPARQL. Despite the availability of SHACL, Wikidata currently represents its property constraints through its own RDF data model, which relies on Wikidata’s specific reification mechanism based on authoritative namespaces, and – partially ambiguous – natural language definitions. In the present paper, we investigate whether and how the semantics of Wikidata property constraints, can be formalized using SHACL-Core, SHACL-SPARQL, as well as directly as SPARQL queries. While the expressivity of SHACL-Core turns out to be insufficient for expressing all Wikidata property constraint types, we present SPARQL queries to identify violations for all 32 current Wikidata constraint types. We compare the semantics of this unambiguous SPARQL formalization with Wikidata’s violation reporting system and discuss limitations in terms of evaluation via Wikidata’s public SPARQL query endpoint, due to its current scalability. Our study, on the one hand, sheds light on the unique characteristics of constraints defined by the Wikidata community, in order to improve the quality and accuracy of data in this collaborative knowledge graph. On the other hand, as a “byproduct”, our formalization extends existing benchmarks for both SHACL and SPARQL with a challenging, large-scale real-world use case.

The properties of polymer mixtures obtained by various methods in solid phase, solution and emulsion have been investigated. It has been shown that it is possible to obtain composite materials with different properties based on mixtures of polymers obtained in the solid phase as a result of thermal-mechanical effects. It has been determined that the addition of PVC of 5–10 k.h. leads to an increase in the unsaturation of the elastomers and the amount of chlorine combined in them. The increase in the reactivity of elastomers makes it possible to obtain compositions resistant to various effects based on them. Properties of mixtures obtained from separately diluted solutions with elastomers - SKEP-50 and SKEPT-60 and functional polymers - PVC and CAPP have been investigated. It has been shown that despite the absence of chemical bonding in such mixtures, physical bonding occurs in the resulting mixtures. As a result, it has been confirmed by various methods that there is combined chlorine in the mixtures and that a new structure is formed, different from the structure of the initial components. Emulsions of SKEP-50, SKEP-60 and PVC have been obtained and mixed. The physical-chemical properties of the mixture of emulsions and IR spectrum and stability of the polymer layer obtained from the mixtures have been investigated. It has been shown that, unlike emulsions of initial polymers, the emulsion mixture has high physical-chemical and durability properties and can be used as a protective coating

Experimental results of studying the morphology, phase composition, magnetic and catalytic properties of vanadium-antimony-containing aluminum oxide samples in the reaction of oxidative dehydrogenation of propane (ODP) with carbon dioxide are presented. It has been shown that in the X-ray diffraction patterns of vanadium-aluminum and antimony-vanadium-aluminum oxide catalysts with a vanadium content of less than 15 and an antimony content of less than 5 wt.%, respectively, only peaks belonging to γ-Al2O3 are observed. It is assumed that the absence of V2O5 peaks is due to the presence of vanadium oxide in these catalysts in a highly dispersed amorphous state in the form of polymer structures (VOx)n. In the X-ray diffraction patterns of the catalyst with the composition 5%Sb-15%V/Al2O3, peaks characteristic of the Sb2O3 and SbVO4 phases are observed. According to the EPR spectra, vanadium ions in the +4 oxidation state are identified as vanadyl ions VO2+. It has been shown that the introduction of antimony into the composition of a vanadium-aluminum oxide catalyst increases the amount of vanadyl ions VO2+ and its activity in the ODP reaction. It was found that samples of the used γ-Al2O3 carrier are inactive in the ODP reaction and acquire this activity after introducing vanadium into them. The introduction of antimony into vanadium-containing aluminum oxides enhances the catalytic activity and significantly increases their selectivity in the ODP reaction. The thermodynamics of the reactions of formation of vanadium-antimony oxide structures and ODP with their participation have been studied
Longitudinal effects of marital conflict on children’s executive function difficulties: Mediating effects of co-parenting
Authors: Lee Heajin , Lee Soyean
Published: August 2024

This study aimed to investigate the longitudinal effects of marital conflict and co-parenting on children's executive function difficulties. Data collected from 1,169 children and their parents were analyzed using data from the 5th, 8th, and 11th of the Panel Study on Korean Children. Correlation analysis and structural equation modeling were performed using SPSS 25.0 and AMOS 25.0 programs. Indirect effects were tested through Bootstrapping and Sobel-tests. The results showed that firstly, the marita conflict did not have an effect on children's executive function difficulties. Secondly, marital conflict had an effect on co-parenting. Thirdly, mother's marital conflict had an effect on children's executive function difficulties through mother’s co-parenting. This study confirms that mother's co-parenting is a protective factor in preventing marital conflict and executive function difficulties in early childhood and highlights the importance of improving the quality of mother's co-parenting.
The effects of parenting attitudes perceived by high school students on their interpersonal problems: Mediating effects of internalized shame and rejection sensitivity
Authors: Suh Mounghee , Choi Jinah
Published: August 2024

This study was conducted to investigate the mediating effects of internalized shame and rejection sensitivity on the relation between parenting attitude and interpersonal problems. The participants of the study were 714 high school students in first and second grade in G metropolitan city in Korea. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS and AMOS. The results of the study were as follows. First, parental warmth attitude was negatively correlated with interpersonal problems. And rejection and overprotective parenting attitudes were positively correlated with interpersonal problems. Second, in the effect of parents’ emotional warmth on interpersonal problems, internalized shame and rejection sensitivity influenced interpersonal problems through dual mediation. Third, Internalized shame and rejection sensitivity were fully mediated in the process in which parental rejection attitude, and overprotection attitude affected interpersonal problems, This study is significant in that it showed that not only parents' warmth, rejective, and overprotective parenting attitudes but also internalized shame and rejection sensitivity are important factors in adolescents' interpersonal problems.
