Are Emotion Regulation Strategies Different among 3–6–Year– Old Aggressive Children? Evidence from China
Authors: CAI Ge , YUE Yaping , HUANG Jin , LI Meifang
Published: December 2020

Background: During the long–time home quarantine due to COVID–19, preschool-age children can be easily stricken by negative emotions, which give rise to aggressive behaviors. Aggressive behaviors are of different types at the preschool stage. We aimed to investigate the differences of emotion regulation strategies among children age 3–6 yr old with different aggression types and explore the relationship between emotion regulation strategies and aggressive behaviors.
Methods: The aggressive behaviors of 1,187 children sampled (event sampling method) from 5 kindergartens in five cities in Henan Province of China were observed on the spot in 2020. Three aggression types (i.e., physical, verbal, and indirect) were selected to conduct a questionnaire survey on emotion regulation strategies and discuss the differences among aggressive children in emotion regulation strategies.
Results: Children of different genders are significantly different in aggressive behaviors and problem solving, as well as children at different age levels in self–comfort, passive reaction, and negative regulation strategies. Significant interaction exists between gender and aggression but not in negative regulation strategy; significant interaction also exists between age and aggression but not in cognitive reconstruction, substitutive activity, and aggressive behavior. Significant differences exist among children of different aggression types in positive and negative regulation strategies. The discrimination accuracy of emotion regulation strategies for aggression types is 66.5%.
Conclusion: Significant differences exist among 3-6-yr-old aggressive children in emotion regulation strategies, and emotion regulation strategies can effectively distinguish aggressive children of different types.

Authors: KIM Ka Young , LEE Eunmi , CHO Jeonghyun
Published: December 2020

Background: We aimed to investigate the factors affecting healthcare utilization among patients with single and multiple chronic diseases using the Andersen healthcare utilization model.
Methods: We used a combination of the data from the sixth and seventh Korea National Health and Nutrition Survey (2014–2016). The study population was 3,901 patients with single chronic disease and 1,829 patients with multiple chronic diseases as defined by the WHO. Participants were aged 19 yr or older. Multiple regression analysis was employed using the Andersen model to identify factors affecting healthcare utilization (inpatient and outpatient).
Results: According to the Andersen model (comprising predisposing, enabling, and need factors and health behaviors), the factors that increased outpatients with single chronic disease were female, being aged 65 yr or older, having basic livelihood security benefit, immobility, and poor subjective health status. Factors that increased inpatients with single chronic disease were being aged under 65, having private insurance, immobility, poor subjective health status, and nondrinking. Moreover, factors that increased outpatients and inpatients with multiple chronic diseases were female, being aged under 65, immobility, and poor subjective health status and immobility, poor subjective health status, nondrinking, and not engaging in physical activity, respectively
Conclusion: We identified factors affecting outpatient and inpatient care utilization among patients with single and multiple chronic diseases, using the Andersen healthcare utilization model. The findings can be used as foundational data to develop preventive and management strategies in healthcare utilization among patients with single and multiple chronic diseases.

Authors: JI Yanping , DING Qingbin , LI Tingting , TANG Renhong , ZHANG Jing
Published: December 2020

Background: Illness can provoke a crisis response that affects condition acceptance, treatment and recovery. Patients’ sense of coherence can influence this and has been explored across patient cohorts internationally. However there are few studies that examine these effects in patients with hepatic cirrhosis. This study investigated sense of coherence and social support of patients with hepatic cirrhosis.
Methods: The psychological status of 146 patients admitted to the Digestive System Department, First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University, Harbin, China from Mar 2016 to Mar 2019 with hepatic cirrhosis was assessed using the Sense of Coherence (SOC-13), Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) and crisis assessment scales.
Results: There was a low level of crisis response in patients with hepatic cirrhosis that was influenced by age, disease course, education level and Child-Pugh grade and negatively correlated with sense of coherence and social support. 
Conclusion: Liver cirrhosis patients had a low level of crisis response. As the level of crisis response in is correlated with patients' sense of coherence, social support and educational level, careful assessment, tailored educational interventions and mobilizing of family support are important to maximize responses to illness and thus improve quality of life.

Authors: Shamsoddin Erfan , Janani Leila , Ghamari Kiandokht , Kabiri Payam , Shamsi Gooshki Ehsan , Mesgarpour Bita
Published: December 2020

Assessment of scientific misconduct is considered to be an increasingly important topic in medical sciences. Providing a definition for scientific research misconduct and proposing practical methods for evaluating and measuring it in various fields of medicine discipline are required. This study aimed at assessing the psychometric properties of Scientific Research Misconduct-Revised (SMQ-R) and Publication Pressure Questionnaires (PPQ). After translation and merging of these two questionnaires, the validity of the translated draft was evaluated by 11-member expert panel using Content Validity Index (CVI) and Content Validity Ratio (CVR). Reliability of the final questionnaire, completed by 100 participants randomly chosen from medical academic members, was assessed by calculating Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. The final version was named Persian Research Misconduct Questionnaire (PRMQ) and consisted of 63 question items. The item-level content validity indices of 61 questions were above 0.79, and reliability assessment showed that 6 out of 7 subscales had alpha values higher than 0.6. Hence, PRMQ can be considered an acceptable, valid and reliable tool to measure research misconduct in biomedical sciences researches in Iran.
Neonatal end-of-life decisions and ethical perspectives
Authors: Soltani Gerdfaramarzi Madjid , Bazmi Shabnam
Published: December 2020

End-of-life decisions are usually required when a neonate is at high risk of disability or death, and such decisions involve many legal and ethical challenges. This article reviewed the processes of ethical decision-making for severely ill or terminal neonates, considering controversial issues including the followings: (i) identifying primary decision makers, (ii) the role of law and guidelines, and (iii) changes in treatment controversy, law and regulations over twenty years in several European countries such as Switzerland, Germany, Italy, United Kingdom, France, the Netherlands, Sweden, and Spain. This review study conducted on accessible articles from PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science and Scopus databases. Based on two studies in 2016 and 1996, neonatologists reported that withholding intensive care, withdrawing mechanical ventilation or life-saving drugs, and involvement of parents in decision-makings have become more acceptable as time passes, indicative of trend change. Trend of physicians on how end the life of neonates, at risk of death, varies in different countries, and cultural factors, parents’ involvement in decisions and gestational age are factors considered in end-of-life decision-making. Future investigations continuously need to identify upcoming ethical aspects of proper decision-making.
Viralizando o sistema: o movimento Gay Shame e as subversões anarquistas
Authors: Oliveira da Silva Junior Alcidesio
Published: December 2020

Como um vírus no sistema, infectando as estruturas do capitalismo e dos padrões heterossexuais de se viver/existir, assim surge o Gay Shame, movimento anarquista queer norte-americano sustentado pelos princípios clássicos da cooperação, autogestão e oposição ao Estado. Neste texto, busco tecer entrelaçamentos ousados entre a ação direta extravaganza do movimento e agenciamentos de uma educação anarquista, selvagem, subversiva e perigosamente antenada com as demandas políticas e sociais que emergem por meio da comunidade dos corpos abjetos. Para tanto, envolto nas reflexões pós-estruturalistas de Gênero, Sexualidade e do Anarquismo Queer, lanço meus olhares enviesados aos objetivos do Gay Shame e a sua intervenção na 27ª Dyke March realizada em São Francisco/EUA, percebendo que as práticas anarquistas do movimento ao provocarem dissidências e fissuras neste sistema agem como vírus corroendo a imunidade do Capital, na tentativa de enfraquecê-lo cotidianamente por meio de microações políticas nas relações de força a qual estamos inseridxs.
O mercado de trabalho para pessoas transexuais: considerações a partir da análise de duas iniciativas sociais
Authors: Ricardo Kellyane de Santana
Published: December 2020

O objetivo dessa reflexão é discutir acerca dos contornos apresentados no mercado de trabalho para pessoas transexuais no Brasil a partir da análise de duas iniciativas sociais: a plataforma ‘transemprego’ e a articulação de dois movimentos sociais em Pernambuco. O artigo se desenvolve com reflexões iniciais sobre as considerações teóricas no que tange a gênero e transexualidade, centra sua discussão em compreender e explorar teoricamente como se expressa o mercado de trabalho para as pessoas transexuais no Brasil e se propõe a expor dados sobre este acesso e discuti-los teoricamente. Para realização do objetivo foram utilizadas as técnicas metodológicas de análise de dados quantitativos e revisão bibliográfica. Observou-se que as iniciativas analisadas contribuem para ampliação do acesso dessa população ao mercado de trabalho, se apontando também para uma tendência de crescimento mesmo que ínfimo de oportunidades. Mas ao mesmo passo há reforço à lógica de estar sempre inseridos em ocupações menos valorizadas e mais precarizadas.

Published: December 2020

Os seriados televisivos têm ocupado destaque na produção cultural na contemporaneidade. Utilizá-los como recurso de investigação científica visa construir um percurso metodológico capaz de subsidiar a análise sócio-histórica de aspectos psicossociais materializados e divulgados massivamente por esse canal de produção cultural. Sua interface com os estudos de gênero e sexualidade busca construir diálogos que viabilizem avanço de viés crítico na proposição de conceitos acerca de como a assexualidade é apresentada nesses produtos. Para isso, desenvolveu-se um estudo descritivo-interpretativo, a partir da base online Internet Movie Database (IMDb). Na base de dados, os títulos “Better Half” da série House M.D. e “The Laws of Gods and Men” de Game of Thrones foram identificados como potencializadores da discussão da assexualidade. A partir dos episódios investigados foi possível aferir a assexualidade nos seguintes contextos: tratada como fenômeno desviante e patologizado; como aspecto pouco representado nos seriados; ou como parte de possibilidade de ser e existir no mundo. Por fim, os seriados são capazes de dar visibilidade a categoria assexualidade e também evidenciam a necessidade de construção de perspectivas de sexualidade mais inclusivas e menos norteadas por ideais hegemônicos, calcados na patologização e invisibilização.
Corpo feminino: análise dos reflexos das transformações corporais na capacidade decisional
Authors: Ayres Navarro Ananda , Silva Alves Heloisa , Jales Varelo Sonalyana , Gomes Garcia Loreley
Published: December 2020

A temática sobre o universo feminino permanece necessária mediante o modelo opressor vigente na contemporaneidade, no qual a sociedade sexista continua influenciando diretamente na vida das mulheres. O trabalho questiona alguns aspectos biológicos, psicológicos e comportamentais na fase de transição da infância para adolescência, tendo em vista que percebe-se a associação desses elementos com a reprodução social misógina do sodalício. Tendo em vista essa vigência, o corrente artigo objetiva discorrer acerca da discussão de gênero, pautada no processo da autonomia decisional sobre o corpo de garotas cuja faixa etária é direcionada a idade dos 14 aos 18 anos. Nessa perspectiva, a pesquisa é desenvolvida a partir da obtenção de referenciais teóricos atrelados a aplicação de questionários após as oficinas de defesa pessoal ofertadas pelo grupo de pesquisa Pandora. Tal metodologia permitiu a obtenção de dados qualitativos e quantitativos baseados no poder de decisão sobre o corpo. Com base no exposto, o corpo feminino é reflexo de agregações sociais, que carecem de compreensão e discussões para que o processo de autonomia e empoderamento feminino sejam impulsionados.
Los No Lugares
Authors: Escayola Fernanda , Ruíz Díaz Pedro
Published: December 2020

Este artículo analiza un fenómeno que en la actualidad ha cobrado cada vez más fuerza en el ámbito antropológico y sociológico; se trata del concepto de no lugar manejado por Marc Augé2, y de sus correspondientes manifestaciones en los intercambiadores, programas de gran complejidad que impactan fuertemente tanto a nivel urbano como arquitectónico. El objetivo radica en definir los principales elementos que caracterizan a estos no lugares, y analizar en el caso específico de los intercambiadores cómo se presentan. Para poder alcanzarlo, se plantea como hipótesis que los no lugares mantienen características desde el punto de vista arquitectónico y espacial que se repiten en todas partes del mundo, más allá del contexto inmediato en el que se insertan. Pero a la vez se considera que existe una articulación entre el fenómeno global y el local, que produce en los intercambiadores un proceso de hibridación en el que conviven el concepto tradicional de lugar y el de no lugar en un mismo espacio.
Neuro-gliovascular module of the corpus callosum in the diagnosis of diffuse axonal brain injury
Authors: Koludarova Ekaterina M. , Zorikov Oleg V. , Tuchik Evgeny S.
Published: December 2020

Background: Currently, there is no scientifically based diagnostic complex for diffuse axonal brain injury (DAI) which allows to reveal its morphological substrate and determine the time elapsed after it, especially in the early post-traumatic period.
Aims: The aim of the study was to identify of morphological changes in the corpus callosum in various post-traumatic periods after DAI. The material of the study is the corpus callosum of victims who died from traumatic brain injury with DAI within the first hour (group I, n=25), in the period from 1 to 12 hours (group II, n=30) and in the period from 12 to 48 hours (group III, n=17) before the death. The control group of the study comprises the corpus callosum (n=25) of those who died from various causes of non-violent and violent death (without any head trauma).
Results: The main diagnostic criterion for DAI is represented by hemorrhages in the substance of the corpus callosum truncus. The proposed complex of morphological changes in the neuro-gliovascular module will allow to determine the time elapsed after DAI.
Conclusions: DAI as a special type of traumatic brain injury is manifested by a pathognomonic complex of pathomorphological changes in the deep structures of the brain, including the corpus callosum. Objectification of the time elapsed after DAI should be based on a comparative assessment of all morphological features of the identified neuro-gliovascular module, while its individual features can not be considered as diagnostic.

Distribuição de Género em Cargos de Liderança na Área Médica em Portugal: O Exemplo das Candidaturas aos Órgãos da Ordem dos Médicos 2017-2019
Authors: Cabral Miguel , Paixão Margarida , Leite Andreia
Published: December 2020

Introdução: A igualdade de género constitui um dos objetivos de desenvolvimento sustentável. Uma manifestação de desigualdade de género é a baixa participação de mulheres em cargos de liderança. Em Portugal, são escassos os estudos sobre a desigualdade de género na liderança na área médica. Assim, o presente trabalho pretendeu analisar a distribuição de género em candidaturas aos órgãos regionais da Ordem dos Médicos.Material e Métodos: Foram extraídos da Revista da Ordem dos Médicos (número 175) os dados dos candidatos aos órgãos regionais da Ordem dos Médicos (mandato de 2017 - 2019). Obtiveram-se as percentagens de mulheres candidatas, globalmente, por lista, regiões e cargos. Calcularam-se razões observado-versus-esperado por secção regional e intervalos de confiança a 95% assumindo uma distribuição de Poisson. Foi realizada análise de sensibilidade, excluindo os candidatos a suplentes.Resultados: Trinta e sete por cento dos candidatos eram médicas (variação por região: 29% - 51%). A nível nacional a razão observado-versus-esperado foi de 0,74 (intervalo confiança a 95%: 0,58; 0,92), principalmente influenciada pela razão da região Sul de 0,58 (intervalo confiança a 95%: 0,41; 0,80). Existiu uma predominância de mulheres nas candidaturas para suplentes e secretário (56% e 54% respetivamente).Discussão: A diferença entre géneros é particularmente acentuada na região Sul, na frequência e tipo de cargos a que se candidatam. As razões apontadas na literatura relacionam-se com a maternidade, o papel social da mulher e perceções sobre o desempenho dos cargos de lideraça. Este estudo é limitado à análise de um tipo de liderança e um momento eleitoral, sendo necessárias análises mais abrangentes.Conclusão: Houve menor participação do que o expectável por parte das médicas no processo eleitoral da Ordem dos Médicos. Quando participam, as mulheres tendem a fazê-lo em cargos de menor relevância ou com menos potencial para eleição (secretário ou suplente). É necessário aprofundar o estudo e introduzir medidas de combate à desigualdade de género em cargos de liderança.
Paisajes del alma

Published: December 2020

La trayectoria pictórica realizada por el autor del ensayo a lo largo de los últimos veinte años pone de manifiesto que la pintura de paisaje ha sido tratada de un modo autónomo, con los mínimos condicionantes posibles. De manera análoga, la praxis experimental ha ido acompañada de estudios razonados o analizados sobre su concepción y desarrollo. Cuando menos, su pensamiento ha sido transferido mediante ensayos que se han publicado en distintos medios, algunos de los cuales accesibles en Corbella, 2012. El que nos ocupa propone, en síntesis, una integración o compendio de las ideas, conceptos o principios que han conformado las inquietudes y preocupaciones más destacadas sobre la pintura del hecho paisajístico, con claras evidencias por la estética oriental. En él se encontrarán algunas de las claves, constantes y nociones que quien escribe este ensayo considera fundamentales para llegar a redefinir el paisaje pictórico contemporáneo. Dos capítulos de binomios estéticos e interculturales, seguidos de treinta y tres pensamientos del autor sobre la pintura, nos muestran el perfil vivencial que hace posible la plasmación de un paisaje pintado, que emana o sigue la vía del alma del pintor a partir del espíritu del lugar.
Mapa em ruína
Authors: Fortunato Lima Luís
Published: December 2020

Este artigo apresenta um conjunto de reflexões direta ou indiretamente relacionadas com uma imagem da autoria de Giovani Batista Piranesi: um conjunto de fragmentos de mármore pertencentes a um mapa da Roma Antiga (Fig. 1). O tema da ruina emerge neste contexto preciso e singular. No ato de coligir os fragmentos do mapa, em si mesmo revelador de uma atenção de ordem diferente da habitual, constitui-se uma valorização da ruina e da sua aptidão evocativa e simbólica, mas também do seu poder apelativo da imaginação.  A investigação do fundo concetual sobre o qual desponta esta imagem - considerando as áreas protocientífica, estética e artística em que ela se inscreveu no séc. XVIII- possibilita-nos a sua leitura enquanto metáfora sobre a perceção, representação e reinvenção da ruinas, no contexto urbano da cidade de Roma, naquela época. Por um lado, a imagem citada reflete a perceção da cidade como território desfigurado, por outro, a compreensão das ruinas como valor secular, configurando uma estrutura da identidade cultural e estética. Além disso, a ruina surge, neste artigo, como imensurável repositório da imaginação e como agente catalisador de movimentos psicológicos sobredeterminados. A conclusão imaginativa, inerente aos processos de contemplação estética das ruinas e, eventualmente, das construções, parece relacionar-se com características formais e visuais destes tipos de tema, visualmente caracterizados pela incompletude das formas e por aspetos de descontinuidade e interrupção.

El presente articulo analiza distintas estrategias narrativas presentes en la cartografía artística contemporánea como medio para reflejar las diferentes temporalidades y espacialidades presentes en el paisaje. Estos espacios se han visto sometidos alo largo de los últimos años al flujo migratorio de la globalización, y a la disolución de fronteras espacio temporales derivadas de un proceso de intercomunicación a escala global, donde lo local ha ido perdiendo relevancia frente a lo global.El objeto de este análisis es esbozar un breve panorama de distintas estrategias de reconstrucción espacio temporales y de delimitación de cronologías presentes en la imagen del paisaje artístico. Y para ello se realiza una revisión de determinadas obras pictóricas, fotográficas y audiovisuales que pueden se consideradas representativas y que van a revelar las distintas estrategias utilizadas para reflejar de diferentes formas la memoria líquida del lugar.
A Psicologia na Atenção Básica e a Saúde Coletiva
Authors: Lemos Vanessa Santos , Lhullier Cristina
Published: December 2020

O objetivo do artigo é descrever os desafios do profissional da psicologia na atenção básica à saúde. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de delineamento qualitativo, exploratório e descritivo. Foram analisados 10 artigos publicados entre 2001 e 2017 em revistas científicas pertencentes às bases de dados do Portal de Periódicos da Capes. Os artigos apresentavam relatos de experiência de profissionais da psicologia que atuam na atenção básica à saúde e foram analisados na perspectiva da análise de conteúdo proposta por Laville e Dionne. Os resultados apontam a necessidade de o profissional da psicologia adotar uma visão ampliada de saúde na perspectiva da saúde coletiva. Deste modo, pode se desenvolver um atendimento integral à saúde por meio de atuação humanizada, preventiva e ampliada na atenção básica. Mais ainda, busca-se a transformação na formação dos profissionais da psicologia e a elaboração de diretrizes norteadoras mais claras e objetivas para a saúde mental na atenção básica.
Deschampsia antarctica extract (Edafence®) as a powerful skin protection tool against the aging exposome

Published: December 2020

The impact of the interaction of all combined environmental agents to which an individual is exposed during his/her lifetime, as well as how his/her organism responds to these influences, defines health, aging, and disease. The systematic, integrative characterization of the different elements making up the “exposome” is thus necessary to identify and exploit the potential of compounds capable of conferring protection with minimal side effects. Extracts from the natural world, containing synergistic combinations of compounds with antioxidant and protective properties, have long been used in traditional medicine. Modern science has the opportunity to leverage these substances honed by evolution and use them safely and reliably, with a profound mechanistic knowledge and guaranteeing standardization and absence of toxicity. Here, we discuss our current knowledge regarding the potential of a soluble extract of the hair grass Deschampsia antarctica (as its standardized commercial preparation Edafence®) to counteract the skin exposome and its impact on skin aging and disease.
Sublobar minimally invasive surgery vs. stereotactic ablative radiotherapy for early stage non-small cell lung cancer
Authors: Galvez Carlos , Bolufer Sergio , Corcoles Juan-Manuel , Lirio Francisco , Sesma Julio , Mafe Juan Jose , Cerezal Jorge
Published: December 2020

Although lobectomy has been traditionally considered the standard treatment for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), lung-sparing resections usually called “sublobar resections” have exponentially increased in their use in the age of minimally-invasive surgery. Sublobar resection, especially anatomical segmentectomy, has shown comparable oncological outcomes in tumors less than 2 cm in diameter without nodal involvement and distant metastasis. On the other hand, more advanced radiation techniques such as stereotactic ablative radiotherapy, have shown excellent local control rates in stage I NSCLC, with low rates of post-treatment complications, so not only is its role growing in inoperable patients, but also in standard-risk stage I patients. There is a need for multicenter randomized trials addressing specifically this issue. This review aims to collect comparative data about the outcomes of both treatment strategies in early stage NSCLC.

Second, the article analyzes the role of journalists, experts and politicians in instigating or curbing the COVID-19-driven ― infodemic‖ in the United States as coronavirus paved the way for global spread.
Foreign policy of Belarus and the evolution of its domestic political environment
Authors: Skriba A. , Drozdova A.
Published: December 2020

For a long time, the research of Belarusian foreign policy evolved within the framework of neorealism, with the main attention paid to structural factors (external environment) and, to a very limited extent, to internal environment. The specifics of the Belarusian political system – the so-called superpresidential personalist republic, where power is concentrated primarily in hand of one person – made it meaningless to study the vast variety of other domestic actors, who hardly influenced the foreign policy decision-making process. Nevertheless, the political crisis in Belarus in the second half of 2020 has raised a critical question of inevitable evolution and transformation of the domestic socio-political environment. The result will be greater involvement in the foreign policy making of those “hidden actors” who haven’t yet come into the spotlight. It is not possible to predict the format or timing of this to happen. However, new political circumstances in Belarus increase the relevance of studying such actors, their demands, interests, and potential links to the current or future foreign policy of Belarus.
New big war in the South Caucasus and prospects for peace in Karabakh
Authors: Valiyev A. , Gafarova N.
Published: December 2020

The 2020 military escalation in Nagorno-Karabakh became the worst one since the 1994 ceasefire. The new war lasted over a month and resulted in more than 5,000 people dead and over 10,000 wounded from both sides. Meanwhile, South Caucasus occupies a specific place in the Russian foreign policy, due to Moscow's economic, political and military presence in the region. Moscow abstained from active involvement in the war, called for humanitarian ceasefire and for an end to hostilities and helped strike the November 10 ceasefire agreement. It seems that after the war Russia will need to deal with new situation in the South Caucasus, quite different from what it was before.
Emergent and recurrent transboundary infection diseases in human life
Authors: Blokhin A.
Published: December 2020

Natural outbreaks of transboundary infectious diseases and pandemics are global threats posing international challenges of medical, veterinary, social, and economic character. These diseases have their specific sources and are driven by a range of factors and mechanisms that ensure their transboundary spread. The main driver of transnational spread of infectious diseases is human activity that violates and distorts ecological and climate balance. This disbalance leads to emergence of new pathogens and to expansion of geographical areas of already known diseases and of the range of their host organisms that increasingly include humans. Understanding these aspects is critical for countering existing and future outbreaks of transboundary infections. There is also a risk that infectious potential of microorganisms may be used by armed actors, including parties to politicalmilitary conflicts and terrorists, for their own purposes. While emergence and spread of transboundary infections give rise to a number of problems that reduce the effectiveness of measures for preventing and eliminating them, adequate knowledge about transboundary infections makes it possible to develop a strategy for the management of such diseases at the international level.

This paper discusses approaches to the numerical integration of the coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations system in case of few-mode wave propagation. The wave propagation assumes the propagation of up to nine modes of light in an optical fiber. In this case, the light propagation is described by the non-linear coupled Schrödinger equation system, where propagation of each mode is described by own Schrödinger equation with other modes interactions. In this case, the non-linear coupled Schrödinger equation system solving becomes increasingly complex, because each mode affects the propagation of other modes. The suggested solution is based on the direct numerical integration approach, which is based on a finite-difference integration scheme. The well-known explicit finite-difference integration scheme approach fails, due to the non-stability of the computing scheme. Due to this fact, the combined explicit/implicit finite-difference integration scheme, based on the implicit Crank–Nicolson finite-difference scheme, is used. It allows ensuring the stability of the computing scheme. Moreover, this approach allows separating the whole equation system on the independent equation system for each wave mode at each integration step. Additionally, the algorithm of numerical solution refining at each step and the integration method with automatic integration step selection are used. The suggested approach has performance gains (or resolutions) up to three or more orders of magnitude in comparison with the split-step Fourier method due to the fact that there is no need to produce direct and inverse Fourier transforms at each integration step. The main advantage of the proposed method is the ability to calculate the propagation of an arbitrary number of modes in the fiber.
Integrated Simulation-based Optimization of Operational Decisions at Container Terminals
Authors: Kastner Marvin , Nellen Nicole , Schwientek Anne , Jahn Carlos
Published: December 2020

At container terminals, many cargo handling processes are interconnected and take place in parallel. Within short time windows, many operational decisions need to be taken considering both time and equipment efficiency. During operation, many sources for disturbance exist. These are the reason why perfectly coordinated processes are possibly unraveled. An approach that considers disturbance factors while optimizing a given objective is simulation-based optimization.
This study analyses simulation-based optimization as a procedure
to simultaneously scale the number of utilized equipment
and to adjust the choice and tuning of operational policies.
The four meta-heuristics Tree-structured Parzen Estimator, Bayesian Optimization, Simulated Annealing, and Random Search guide the simulation-based optimization process. The results show that simulation-based optimization is suitable to identify the amount of required equipment and well-performing policies. Thereby, there is no clear ranking which of the meta-heuristics finds the best approximation of the optimum. The approximated optima suggest that pooling terminal trucks as well as a yard block assignment close to the quay crane is preferable. With an increasing number of quay cranes, the number of optimal terminal trucks for each quay crane decreases as well as the range of truck utilization within one experiment.
Probabilistic Inference with Interval Probabilities
Authors: Uzhga-Rebrov Oleg , Kuleshova Galina
Published: December 2020

Probabilistic inference problems have very broad practical applications. To solve this kind of problems under conditions of certainty, an effective mathematical apparatus has been developed. In real situations, obtaining deterministic estimates of relevant probabilities is often difficult; therefore, problems with handling uncertain estimates of probabilities appear. This paper examines the problem of probabilistic inference with probability trees provided that the initial probabilities are given in the form of intervals of their possible values.
Changing Fertilizer Management Practices in Sugarcane Production: Cane Grower Survey Insights
Authors: Hasan Syezlin , Smart James C. R. , Hay Rachel , Rundle-Thiele Sharyn
Published: December 2020

Research focused on understanding wider systemic factors driving behavioral change is limited with a dominant focus on the role of individual farmer and psychosocial factors for farming practice change, including reducing fertilizer application in agriculture. Adopting a wider systems perspective, the current study examines change and the role that supporting services have on fertilizer application rate change. A total of 238 sugarcane growers completed surveys reporting on changes in fertilizer application along with factors that may explain behavior change. Logistic regressions and negative binomial count-data regressions were used to examine whether farmers had changed fertilizer application rates and if they had, how long ago they made the change, and to explore the impact of individual and system factors in influencing change. Approximately one in three sugarcane growers surveyed (37%) had changed the method they used to calculate fertilizer application rates for the cane land they owned/managed at some point. Logistic regression results indicated growers were less likely to change the basis for their fertilizer calculation if they regarded maintaining good relationships with other local growers as being extremely important, they had another source of off-farm income, and if they had not attended a government-funded fertilizer management workshop in the five years preceding the survey. Similar drivers promoted early adoption of fertilizer practice change; namely, regarding family traditions and heritage as being unimportant, having sole decision-making authority on farming activities and having attended up to 5 workshops in the five years prior to completing the survey. Results demonstrated the influence of government-funded services to support practice change.

Few data are available on the health impact of tobacco heating products (THPs) at the population level. We used systems dynamics modelling to estimate effects in the established THP market in Japan. We projected effects of THP use in overall mortality up to 2100 and compare those projections against a baseline scenario based on smoking rates pre-THP launch, i.e., smoking only. The model was informed using data from publicly available sources and the literature, including population size, yearly deaths and smoking prevalence with initialisation year (2004) and, births and migration from 2004 to 2065. Transitions between products were estimated from cross-sectional population surveys in Japan. Potential life-years saved with the introduction of THPs was 13 million by 2100 compared with smoking only. In worst-case scenario, population health gains would be seen with THPs risk 10–50% lower risk than smoking. Assuming equal risk for dual use and smoking, THP risk would need to be at least 10% lower than smoking to achieve a population health benefit by 2100. In credible scenarios, substantial population health gains will follow the introduction of THPs in Japan in a relatively short time frame.

Atlantic salmon (Salmo Salar) is one of the fish species that rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Consumption of omega-3 fatty acids can lower down the risk of cardiovascular disease and coronary heart disease. The extraction of omega-3 fish oil from Atlantic salmon by using hexane and isopropanol was conducted in this research. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was used to study the impact of parameters which were temperature (50-90°C), centrifuge speed (1000-3000rpm) and solvent ratio of hexane to isopropanol (0.5-1.5) to the percentage of oil yield. The results obtained shows that 15.23%± 0.61 of oil yield from Atlantic salmon under an optimum condition of 70°C, 3000 rpm and solvent ratio of hexane to isopropanol of 1.5. The acid value, peroxide value and p-anisidine value of the fish oil obtained were 7.48 mg KOH/g, 1.94 meq/kg and 5.56 respectively which were all within the acceptable limit which stipulated by Global Organization for EPA and DHA (GOED) and Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations (FAO). The FTIR analysis proved the presence of alkane and carboxylic acid in the fish oil. Furthermore, GC-MS analysis showed that the fish oil contains higher monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) contents followed by polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and 4.5525% of total omega-3 fatty acids.
