We present observations of the J = 1 – 0 transition lines of 12CO, 13CO, and C18O toward the Galactic region of 153.°60 ≤ l ≤ 156.°50 and 1.°85 ≤ b ≤ 3.°50, using the Purple Mountain Observatory 13.7 m millimeter telescope. Based on the 13CO data, one main filament and five subfilaments are found together as a network structure in the velocity interval of [−42.5, −30.0] km s−1. The kinematic distance of this molecular cloud is estimated to be ∼4.5 kpc. The median length, width, excitation temperature, and line mass of these filaments are ∼49 pc, ∼2.9 pc, ∼8.9 K, and ∼39 M
⊙ pc−1, respectively. The velocity structures along these filaments exhibit oscillatory patterns, which are likely caused by the fragmentation or accretion process along these filaments. The maximum accretion rate is estimated to be ∼700 M
⊙ pc−1. A total of ∼162 13CO clumps and ∼103 young stellar objects are identified in this region. Most of the clumps are in gravitationally bound states. Three H ii regions (G154.359+2.606, SH2-211, and SH2-212) are found to be located in the apexes of the filaments. Intense star-forming activity is found along the entire filamentary cloud. The observed results may help us to better understand the link between filaments and massive star formation.

In addition to the extended main-sequence turnoffs widely found in young and intermediate-age (∼600 Myr to 2 Gyr old) star clusters, some younger clusters even exhibit split main sequences (MSs). Different stellar rotation rates are proposed to account for the bifurcated MS pattern, with red and blue MSs (rMS and bMS) populated by fast and slowly rotating stars, respectively. Using photometry from Gaia Early Data Release 3, we report a Galactic open cluster with a bifurcated MS, NGC 2422 (∼90 Myr). We exclude the possibilities that the bifurcated MS pattern is caused by photometric noise or differential reddening. We aim to examine if stellar rotation can account for the split MS. We use spectra observed with the Canada–France–Hawaii Telescope and the Southern African Large Telescope and directly measured

values are weakly correlated with their loci in the color–magnitude diagram because of contamination caused by a large fraction of rMS stars with low projected rotational velocities. Based on the spectral energy distribution fitting method, we suggest that these slowly rotating stars at the rMS may hide a binary companion, which breaks the expected

Binary Interaction Dominates Mass Ejection in Classical Novae
Authors: Shen Ken J. , Quataert Eliot
Published: October 2022

Recent observations suggest our understanding of mass loss in classical novae is incomplete, motivating a new theoretical examination of the physical processes responsible for nova mass ejection. In this paper, we perform hydrodynamical simulations of classical nova outflows using the stellar evolution code MESA. We find that, when the binary companion is neglected, white dwarfs with masses ≳0.8 M
⊙ successfully launch radiation-pressure-driven optically thick winds that carry away most of the envelope. However, for most of the mass-loss phase, these winds are accelerated at radii beyond the white dwarf’s Roche radius assuming a typical cataclysmic variable donor. This means that, before a standard optically thick wind can be formed, mass loss will instead be initiated and shaped by binary interaction. An isotropic, optically thick wind is only successfully launched when the acceleration region recedes within the white dwarf’s Roche radius, which occurs after most of the envelope has already been ejected. The interaction between these two modes of outflow—a first phase of slow, binary-driven, equatorially focused mass loss encompassing most of the mass ejection and a second phase consisting of a fast, isotropic, optically thick wind—is consistent with observations of aspherical ejecta and signatures of multiple outflow components. We also find that isolated lower-mass white dwarfs ≲0.8 M
⊙ do not develop unbound optically thick winds at any stage, making it even more crucial to consider the effects of the binary companion on the resulting outburst.
High-redshift Galaxies from Early JWST Observations: Constraints on Dark Energy Models

Here we show that—under the most conservative assumptions and independently of the baryon physics involved in galaxy formation—such galaxy abundance is not only in tension with the standard ΛCDM cosmology but provides extremely tight constraints on the expansion history of the universe and on the growth factors corresponding to a wide class of Dynamical Dark Energy (DDE) models.

Published: October 2022

In 2022 September, the DART spacecraft (NASA’s contribution to the Asteroid Impact & Deflection Assessment (AIDA) collaboration) will impact the asteroid Dimorphos, the secondary in the Didymos system. The crater formation and material ejection will affect the orbital period. In 2027, Hera (ESA’s contribution to AIDA) will investigate the system, observe the crater caused by DART, and characterize Dimorphos. Before Hera’s arrival, the target properties will not be well-constrained. The relationships between observed orbital change and specific target properties are not unique, but Hera’s observations will add additional constraints for the analysis of the impact event, which will narrow the range of feasible target properties. In this study, we use three different shock physics codes to simulate momentum transfer from impactor to target and investigate the agreement between the results from the codes for well-defined target materials. In contrast to previous studies, care is taken to use consistent crushing behavior (e.g., distension as a function of pressure) for a given porosity for all codes. First, we validate the codes against impact experiments into a regolith simulant. Second, we benchmark the codes at the DART impact scale for a range of target material parameters (10%–50% porosity, 1.4–100 kPa cohesion). Aligning the crushing behavior improves the consistency of the derived momentum enhancement between the three codes to within +/−5% for most materials used. Based on the derived mass–velocity distributions from all three codes, we derive scaling parameters that can be used for studies of the ejecta curtain.

The search for exploitable deposits of water and other volatiles at the Moon’s poles has intensified considerably in recent years, due to the renewed strong interest in lunar exploration. With the return of humans to the lunar surface on the horizon, the use of locally available resources to support long-term and sustainable exploration programs, encompassing both robotic and crewed elements, has moved into focus of public and private actors alike. Our current knowledge about the distribution and concentration of water and other volatiles in the lunar rocks and regolith is, however, too limited to assess the feasibility and economic viability of resource-extraction efforts. On a more fundamental level, we currently lack sufficiently detailed data to fully understand the origins of lunar water and its migration to the polar regions. In this paper, we present LUVMI-X, a mission concept intended to address the shortage of in situ data on volatiles on the Moon that results from a recently concluded design study. Its central element is a compact rover equipped with complementary instrumentation capable of investigating both the surface and shallow subsurface of illuminated and shadowed areas at the lunar south pole. We describe the rover and instrument design, the mission’s operational concept, and a preliminary landing-site analysis. We also discuss how LUVMI-X fits into the diverse landscape of lunar missions under development.
The Horizontal Wavelength Spectrum of Gravity Wave Activity in Mars’s Lower Atmosphere: The Perspective from MGS–TES Nadir Observations
Authors: Heavens Nicholas G. , Pankine Alexey , Battalio J. Michael , Wright Corwin
Published: October 2022

Connecting upper-atmospheric gravity waves (GW) to their lower- and middle-atmospheric (0–30 and 30–100 km altitude) origins can improve understanding of the evolution of Mars’s atmosphere as well as its present thermal structure and general circulation. A recent study using observations from the Mars Climate Sounder (MCS) on board the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) characterized the climatology of lower-atmospheric GW with 10–100 km horizontal wavelengths, but GW observed in the upper atmosphere have horizontal wavelengths of up to 500 km, motivating more careful attention to the horizontal wavelength spectrum of lower-atmospheric GW. A previous study of observations by the Thermal Emission Spectrometer (TES) on Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) reported substantial interannual variability in the horizontal wavelength spectrum of wave activity defined broadly, including GW. Here, we derive the horizontal wavelength spectrum of wave activity from the brightness temperature variance spectrum of MGS–TES observations resampled to the MRO–MCS spectral channels during L

s
= 120°–150°, Mars Years 24 and 25. Lower-atmospheric wave activity is strongest at wavelengths <200 km, a population which resembles that observed by MRO–MCS and is likely GW activity. This short-wavelength population is distinct from a wave population with wavelengths >1000 km, which appears to be a mixture of tides and planetary waves. We find that interannual variability in GW activity previously identified using MGS–TES data largely arises from a change in the instrumental noise characteristics of MGS–TES during the first quarter of MY 25.
Developing Data-driven Artificial Neural Network for a High Throughput Retrieval of Aerosol Optical Depth and Surface Temperature of Mars
Authors: Moreno Rafael , Smith Michael D. , Atwood Samuel A. , Mason Emily L. , Nehmetallah George
Published: October 2022

In this work, we aim to develop artificial neural network (ANN) techniques to reproduce the retrieval results of physical quantities from spacecraft observations of solar system bodies using radiative transfer methods. The particular application here is the retrieval of dust optical depth, water ice optical depth, and surface temperature on Mars using daytime observations obtained by the Thermal Emission Spectrometer on board the Mars Global Surveyor. Compared against the results obtained from traditional radiative transfer retrieval techniques, our ANN successfully recovered the three quantities using daytime observations. The principal advantage of these machine-learning algorithms is their complete automation and high throughput. Therefore, the algorithms presented here would be useful for very large data sets and would make practical the sampling of many different approximations or boundary conditions related to a given observation data set and retrieval problem.

Published: October 2022

Introduction: The goal of this study was to evaluate the side effects of application of the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine on the workers at a Mexican hospital.

Methodology: A cross-sectional study was carried out, in which 1351 workers from a tertiary care center in the Mexican southeast were included. Sociodemographic data, comorbidities, and side effects after the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine were obtained through an online survey. The variables were analyzed through descriptive statistics. The presence or absence of side effects was analyzed through the Chi-square test or t-test, as appropriate. The result was considered statistically significant at p < 0.05.

Results: A total of 1351 health workers participated in the online survey. The mean age was 37.8 ± 10.9 years and 56.4% were women. Among them, 8.2% suffered from high blood pressure. In addition, 76.7% manifested pain in the application area. The presence of side effects was associated with the female gender (p < 0.01). Side effects were more prevalent in younger age (37.2 ± 10.7) than older age (41.5 ± 10.8) (p < 0.01). There was no association with the presence of comorbidities (p > 0.05).

Conclusions: The data suggest that pain in the application area is the most frequent side effect among workers in a Mexican hospital who received the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine against COVID-19. In addition, we observed sialorrhea as a side effect in the studied population and this had not previously been reported. The highest number of adverse events occurred between 24 to 72 hours after application.
COVID-19 infection among dentists in Iraqi Kurdistan Region
Authors: Hosoglu Salih , Mahmood Mohammed Khalid
Published: October 2022

Introduction: COVID-19 incidence was relatively high among dentists in Iraq, reflecting the high number of cases in the community. Therefore, possible epidemiological features of COVID-19 infection were investigated among dentists in Iraqi Kurdistan Region.

Methodology: A cross-sectional study has been conducted among dentists using a structured questionnaire. The questionnaire included demographic and working characteristics, self-reported COVID-19 history, and prevention practices toward SARS-CoV-2 during the pandemic. An online questionnaire was developed and spread with a snowball method among dentists.

Results: We analyzed the responses of 83 participants (31 women and 52 men, mean age 33.8 ± 6.8 years). They had a mean of 10.6 ± 6.5 years of work experience and 20.2 ± 12.6 hours of weekly working time. In total, 46 (55.4%) of the participants reported COVID-19 infection. Only 29 (34.9%) participants always followed the hygiene rules. The most common personal precautions were mask-wearing (98.8%) and hand hygiene as a part of institutional protective precaution (51.8%). Of the infected dentists, 24 (52.2%) did not know the source of infection. Of the remaining 16 (34.8%) were infected from family and/or friends circle, and five (10.9%) from patients. Eleven of them (23.9%) reported transmitting the infection to at least one person. In the multivariate analyses, working in Sulaymaniyah Province (p = 0.031) and working only in a public hospital (p = 0.029) were significant risk factors for COVID-19 infection.

Conclusions: The high risk of COVID-19 infection among dentists in the Iraqi Kurdistan Region relates to their family and friends rather than their occupation.

FAIR Points: From sdo:LearningResource to FAIR Digital Object
Authors: El-Gebali Sara , Erdmann Christopher , Winston Donald
Published: October 2022

The FAIRPoints organization, co-founded by the authors, aims to provide a platform for conversations to take place around realistic and pragmatic implementations of the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) principles. The uniqueness of the FAIRPoints effort stems from an additional aim: to capture conversation contributions in the form of “bite-sized” objects – “points” – in a way that facilitates dynamic composition by instructors for the delivery of audience-customized training experiences. Thus, FAIRPoints aims to cultivate pragmatic learning resources to help realize the FAIR principles in practice, both through

inviting speakers to prime and lead discussions focused on choices/challenges regarding FAIR, and

amplifying downstream value potential by serializing “points” made during such events as FAIR resources.

inviting speakers to prime and lead discussions focused on choices/challenges regarding FAIR, and

amplifying downstream value potential by serializing “points” made during such events as FAIR resources.

Currently, event outcomes are serialized as LearningResource-typed JSON-LD objects in the schema.org sense, i.e. sdo:LearningResource, where @prefix sdo:  ., and conform to the bioschemas.org TrainingMaterial profile. However, any differences in participant perspectives must be reconciled, via git revision control, towards a single “view” of a sdo:LearningResource. This situation is at odds with other explicit aims of the FAIRPoints organization such as including diverse voices and collecting heterogeneous input from a global perspective.

Using the FAIR Digital Object (FDO) approach, a FAIRPoints sdo:LearningResource instance may be the Object to which an Identifier points, through an FDO Identifier Record, and sdo:LearningResource may be the FDO Type. Crucially, there may be a multiplicity of Metadata records pointed to by an FDO Identifier Record and thus a formal mechanism to cultivate and publish diverse perspectives.

This presentation will outline FAIRPoints’ approach to FDO implementation for learning resources and its relation to published practice. Specifically, in relation to the FAIR Digital Twins approach*1, our approach may be seen as the stewardship of a “fluid graph” of learning-resource “knowlets” with support for “qua” projection in service of e.g. an instructor’s dynamic composition of training material for a targeted workshop.

Au moment de préparer un cours ou une formation sur l’évaluation de la famille pour les étudiants gradués ou les cliniciens, la question est de savoir quel modèle théorique ou quelle école de thérapie devrait-on enseigner. L’objectif général du présent article est de répondre à cette question. Il vise plus spécifiquement à proposer les définitions des principales composantes à prendre en considération lors de l’évaluation du fonctionnement d’une famille et de proposer un modèle explicatif permettant d’illustrer comment ces composantes sont inter-reliées. Cette démarche de recherche s’appuie sur une méthode de recension critique des écrits publiée par Grant & Bootht (2009), concernant l’ensemble des composantes du fonctionnement familial proposées par les cliniciens et les chercheurs dans le domaine de la thérapie familiale systémique.

Sa proposition comporte un déplacement d’attention de la psychologie des hagiographes vers la dimension corporative de l’Église apostolique et une distinction entre l’action de Dieu « Auctor » de celle des hommes « auteurs ». Si la contribution de Rahner peut constituer un point de repère sur un sujet apparemment oublié dans les dernières décennies, l’article évoque aussi des nouvelles pistes qui demandent à être explorées aujourd’hui, notamment le rôle des lecteurs dans le processus d’inspiration.
L’assurance chômage de 1979 à 2021 : quelles évolutions des droits ?
Authors: Grégoire Mathieu , Vivés Claire
Published: October 2022

Cet article porte sur l’évolution des droits des salariés à l’assurance chômage de  1979 à  2021 étudiée au moyen d’un simulateur déterminant les droits générés, pour toute trajectoire d’emploi, par les différentes réglementations successives. Il montre que les droits des salariés à l’emploi discontinu ont beaucoup varié alors que ceux des salariés à l’emploi stable ont connu une remarquable constance et que l’idée d’une amélioration linéaire des droits des salariés à l’emploi discontinu s’avère constituer un mythe. En revanche, en 40  ans, la logique de l’indemnisation a été profondément bouleversée en passant d’une logique d’assurance à une logique de compte épargne. Il convient ainsi de distinguer deux catégories de salariés à l’emploi discontinu souvent confondues  : les «   précaires  » (en intermittence permanente) et les « chômeurs activés  » (au passé d’emploi stable) dont les droits ont évolué différemment.
Comment contenir l’inégalité dans des limites socialement acceptables ?
Authors: Concialdi Pierre
Published: October 2022

Cet article discute certaines propositions avancées dans le débat public pour contenir l’inégalité des revenus dans des limites socialement acceptables. La première partie dresse un rapide panorama historique qui montre que la question de l’inégalité se pose aujourd’hui en des termes renouvelés, assez sensiblement différents de ceux dans lesquels elle a été posée depuis le début de la Révolution industrielle. On précise ensuite la contribution que les différentes formes de revenus et de patrimoines peuvent apporter à la satisfaction des besoins matériels, en soulignant notamment les limites de substituabilité entre ces différents types de ressources. La dernière partie discute plus précisément diverses propositions de transferts – ciblés ou non ciblés – ainsi que certaines mesures visant à agir directement sur l’inégalité de marché, notamment à travers la création directe d’emplois et le niveau du salaire minimum.
Le capitalisme est-il un système intrinsèquement violent ? Une lecture benjaminienne du concept d’accumulation primitive chez Karl Marx, Rosa Luxemburg et David Harvey

La théorie économique marxiste rend compte des rapports entre capitalisme et violence à l’aide notamment du concept d’accumulation primitive. Cet article se propose de montrer comment ce concept s’est construit et étoffé en analysant trois étapes : d’abord son élaboration initiale par Karl Marx (l’accumulation primitive comme préhistoire du capital), ensuite une première extension par Rosa Luxemburg (l’accumulation primitive comme mouvement actuel d’extension géographique de la logique du capital du centre vers la périphérie), et enfin une seconde extension par David Harvey (l’accumulation primitive comme mouvement de recolonisation « intérieure » et d’« accumulation par dépossession »). L’article propose d’articuler ces trois étapes à partir de la dialectique entre droit et violence telle que l’a problématisée le philosophe Walter Benjamin (2018). Codes JEL  : B14, B24, B5.
Éducation précoce pour les enfants Sourds : les effets du dépistage à Saint-Étienne

Published: October 2022

Introduction : Lancé en 2014, le Programme national de dépistage de la surdité permanente néonatale a reconfiguré la prise en charge des enfants Sourds. En avançant l’âge du début de prise en charge, il favorise le développement du langage et permet d’orienter plus rapidement ces enfants vers les services dédiés. Objectif : Dans ce contexte de remaniement épidémiologique et de mutation technologique (implantation cochléaire, notamment), le Service d’accompagnement familial et d’éducation précoce Loire (Safep 42) propose une réflexion de type « évaluation des pratiques professionnelles » autour des médiations proposées dans son service et du dispositif « Jardin éducatif ». Méthode : Ce travail en méthode mixte associe des données composites : rapports d’activité, observations, entretiens, captation d’expériences, évaluation des pratiques professionnelles. Résultats : Une diminution de l’âge d’entrée (liée au dépistage précoce) et une augmentation de l’âge de sortie (du fait de la prévalence d’enfants présentant des troubles associés ou des facteurs de complexité) conduisent le Safep 42 à s’adapter en créant de nouvelles médiations, tout en conservant les accompagnements prévus pour les plus grands, notamment le jardin éducatif. Actuellement, le Safep atteint sa capacité maximale d’accueil : s’ajoutent à cette tension la pénurie d’orthophonistes ambulatoire et l’augmentation des situations de surdité associées au polyhandicap. Le service a dû renoncer à certaines missions afin de pouvoir continuer à prendre en charge correctement les enfants accueillis. Discussion : Le programme de rééducation et d’accompagnement familial s’accompagne d’une durée de soins plus longue des enfants et ces données doivent être enregistrées par les tutelles.

La voix, témoin du partage. Une lecture de Michel Henry
Authors: Dussert Jean-Max
Published: October 2022

En dépit de la présence massive de la voix dans la Bible, l’exégèse semble avoir laissé de côté la manifestation dernière de celui qui meurt sur la Croix : une « grande voix », un ancrage biblique singulier. La théologie fondamentale pour sa part n’a pas cru devoir prendre en compte le phénomène – singulier lui aussi – de la voix comme telle. « De qui est-ce la voix ? », demande ici Michel Henry. Lisant celui pour qui la question de l’Incarnation aura été question ultime, nous voulons rendre à ce qui se montre en dernier la première place. Signe qui n’est entendu dans le monde que parce que d’abord silence vivant, la voix ne témoigne de rien d’autre que du partage de la vie, de son épreuve. Phénomène des phénomènes ainsi, c’est le seul passage dont nous disposons pour, sans nous en passer, pouvoir dépasser analogies ou métaphores. Le seul passage toujours ouvert « du phénomène au fondement  » ( Fides et ratio ).

Published: October 2022

The variable fractional Lozi map (VFLM) and the variable fractional flow map are two separate systems that we propose in this inquiry. We study several key dynamics of these maps. We also investigate the sufficient and necessary requirements for the stability and asymptotic stability of the variable fractional dynamic systems. As a result, we provide VFLM with the necessary criteria to produce stable and asymptotically stable zero solutions. Furthermore, we propose a combination of these maps in control rules intended to stabilize the system. In this analysis, we take the 1D- and 2D-controller laws as givens.

How do We Know the Ancient Slavs also Knew Gnomons?
Authors: Bilić Tomislav
Published: October 2022

I will attempt to demonstrate that the ‘sacred triangles based on the solar angle’ hypothesis cannot be regarded as a serious scientific proposition because it seems uncorroborated by any solid evidence. It is more an example of circular reasoning, which entails supporting the idea that the ancient Slavs knew about the obliquity of the ecliptic by pointing to the purported existence of ‘sacred triangles’, while also proving the existence of these ‘sacred triangles’ by demonstrating the ancient Slavs were familiar with the value for the obliquity. Certain structures portrayed as gnomons in ancient Slavic contexts are shown to have been overzealously interpreted by modern scholars. This is revealed in a detailed analysis of several of these ‘gnomons’. Finally, it is observed that the ‘sacred triangles’ scholarship engages with neither the modern history of science nor modern studies of myth, the very disciplines that could provide the scholars involved with a better perspective on the subjects to which they are so passionately committed.
ZERO-ACREAGE FARMING DRIVING SUSTAINABLE URBAN DEVELOPMENT: A SPATIAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL COMPARISON OF URBAN AGRICULTURE FARMS
Authors: Hugo Jan , du Plessis Chrisna , van den Dobbelsteen Andy
Published: October 2022

Zero-Acreage Farming (ZAF) recently developed as a novel land-use form and is aimed at addressing food security and sustainable urban development. While it is often lauded as a sustainable land-use form with potential to improve resource consumption and urban sustainability, little research into the spatial and technological requirements of this land-use form is available. This study undertakes a comparative analysis of ZAF and ground-based urban agriculture (UA) farms in diverse countries to differentiate their technical and spatial implementation parameters and uncover ZAF-specific characteristics and their implementation feasibility in rapidly developing cities. This qualitative study uses semi-structured interviews, triangulated with observational studies, to document ZAF and UA farms in South Africa, Belgium, the Netherlands and Singapore. The findings reveal UA as highly flexible, modular landuse forms while, contrastingly, the technological focus of ZAF farms often results in monofunctional and inflexible once implemented, isolated, and non-contextual solutions. While ZAF farms are appropriate to improve livelihoods and food security in dense urban contexts, the study highlights trends that must be addressed to promote the implementation of ZAF in poorer rapidly developing cities.
RESIDENTS’ EXPERIENCE IN TIMBER APARTMENT BUILDINGS IN FINLAND
Authors: Karjalainen Markku , Ilgın Hüseyin Emre
Published: October 2022

Residents’ attitudes towards new bio-based products such as wood play an important role in the anticipated transition towards a forest-based bioeconomy. Timber apartment buildings (over two-story) represent a modern bio-based business opportunity for endorsing low-carbon urban housing. This paper investigated residents’ experience in timber apartment buildings in Finland. In this study, a questionnaire was conducted among residents. The 308 received responses highlighted that: (1) residents were mostly quite satisfied with their current residence, living environment, and apartment’s functionality, (2) respondents had generally a positive attitude towards overall appearance and architecture of their buildings, (3) the majority thought that ecological issues would influence their own choice of residence, (4) presence of fire alarm system and automatic sprinkler system were assessed as the factors that improve life safety, (5) participants mostly drew attention to the properties of timber apartment buildings regarding good sound insulation and good indoor climate, and (6) surveyed residents would most like to move into two-story residential buildings and apartment buildings. These results will help provide a better understanding of the contemporary timber residential market and constitute a basis for interested parties e.g. policymakers, developers, and construction companies to pave better ways for future housing development in Finland.

The traditional construction industry has a significant and far-reaching impact on the environment, economy, and society. Green-certified buildings, with LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method), DGNB (Deutsches Gütesiegel Nachhaltiges Bauen), or other certifications during the design stage, have great potential for increasing the effective use of resources and energy, reducing pollution, etc., and so their number has increased greatly in recent years. The post-occupancy evaluation (POE) of green buildings involves assessing whether they meet expected performance during the in-use phase and comprises four steps: (i) carrying out the research purpose/goal; (ii) determining the research objectives; (iii) conducting data collection, analysis, and visualization; and (iv) obtaining the results and drawing conclusions. However, there is a lack of reviews of POE research and analysis of reasons for actual performance gaps. In response and through a comprehensive literature review/analysis, this article summarizes the actual performance gaps of various greencertified projects, analyzes the reasons for failures, and proposes potential solutions. It is found that 74%, 12%, and 14% of the projects perform better, similar, and worse, respectively, than their non-green counterparts. Future POE green building projects can be optimized from the perspective of the building, user, and POE system. To optimize green building actual performance, it is important to ensure the sufficient education of installation and maintenance personnel and occupants’ green behavior, while interior design and decoration, the impact of user demographics, and POE performance indicators are key factors to be considered in green building design strategies and lifecycle evaluation systems.

Background. Case detection is essential for the management of human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), which is caused by Trypanosoma brucei gambiense. Prior to parasitological confirmation, routine screening using the card agglutination test for trypanosomiasis (CATT) is essential. Recently, individual rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for the serodiagnosis of HAT have been developed.Objective. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the contribution of SD Bioline HAT to the serological screening of human African trypanosomiasis in Cameroonian foci. Methods. Between June 2014 and January 2015, blood samples were collected during surveys in the foci of Campo, Yokadouma, and Fontem. The sensitivity (Se) and specificity (Sp) of SD Bioline HAT were determined using the CATT as the gold standard for the detection of specific antibodies against Trypanosoma brucei gambiense.Results. A total of 88 samples were tested: 59.1% (n=52) in Campo, 31.8% (n=28) in Yokadouma, and 9.1% (n=8) in Fontem. There were 61.4% (n=54) males and 38.4% (n=34) females, and the average age was 35.4 19.0 years. In probed foci, the overall seroprevalence was 11.4% (95% confidence interval: 6.3-19.7) with the CATT method and 18.2% (95% confidence interval: 11.5-27.2%) with the SD Bioline HAT RDT method. The SD Bioline HAT’s Se and Sp were 80.0% and 89.7%, respectively.Conclusions. This study demonstrated that the overall performance of the SD Bioline HAT was comparable to that of the CATT, with high specificity in the serological detection of HAT.

The pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), for which there does not appear to be an approved cure, the primary treatment options consist of non-pharmacological preventive measures and supportive treatment that are aimed at halting the progression of the disease. Nuclear factor kappa B (NFkB) presents a promising therapeutic opportunity to mitigate COVID-19-induced cytokine storm and reduce the risk of severe morbidity and mortality resulting from the disease. However, the effective clinical application of NFkB modulators in COVID-19 is hampered by a number of factors that must be taken into consideration. This paper therefore explored the modulation of the NFB pathway as a potential strategy to mitigate the severe morbidity and mortality caused by COVID-19. The paper also discusses the factors that form the barrier, and it offers potential solutions to the various limitations that may impede the clinical use of NFkB modulators against COVID-19. This paper revealed and identified three key potential solutions for the future clinical use of NFkB modulators against COVID-19. These solutions are pulmonary tissue-specific NFkB blockade, agents that target common regulatory proteins of both canonical and non-canonical NFkB pathways, and monitoring clinical indicators of hyperinflammation and cytokine storm in COVID-19 prior to using NFkB modulators.

Background. Breast disorders (BD) during pregnancy and postpartum cause anxiety and reduce women’s quality of life. The study examined BD risk factors during pregnancy and six months after delivery.Methods. Women attending antenatal clinics at 26 weeks gestation were recruited. 1248 pregnant women were followed six months postpartum. During recruitment, a validated questionnaire was used to collect participant characteristics and risk factors. Palpable lumps, inflammation, persistent pain, and abnormal nipple discharge were classified breast disorders. Statistical analysis used multiple logistic and cox regression models at p0.05.Results. Women with benign breast disease were more likely to develop BD (aOR = 2.63, 95% CI = 1.50–4.88). One pregnancy increases the risk of BD more than three times (aOR=0.52, 95%CI: 0.29–0.95). History of breast trauma (aHR=3.59, 95%CI: 1.40–9.17) and 3 miscarriages vs. none (aHR=2.23, 95%CI: 1.04–4.23) were also risk factors for BD. The second quartile of physical activity was associated with a lower risk of BD (aHR=0.35, 95%CI: 0.15–0.78).Conclusion. Women with breast trauma and miscarriage are more likely to develop breast disorders during pregnancy and six months after delivery. Our findings highlight the need for additional longitudinal research to validate these findings and plans for prevention and control.
Purposeful Course Planning: Considering Student Self-Efficacies When Selecting an Online, Hybrid, or Face-to-Face Course Delivery Modality
Authors: Fukunaga Marissa M. , Kasamatsu Tricia M.
Published: October 2022

Context

Self-efficacy (SE) can affect athletic training students' progression during their professional education and transition to autonomous clinical practice. It is unclear how course delivery may affect athletic training students' SE in various injury evaluation courses.

Objective

Determine the relationship of course delivery modality and athletic training students' injury evaluation SE.

Design

Cross-sectional investigation.

Setting

Web-based survey.

Patients or Other Participants

Ninety-five noncertified National Athletic Trainers' Association student members (38/95 undergraduate athletic training students; 57/95 graduate athletic training students).

Data Collection and Analysis

A 2-part survey including participant characteristic questions and piloted adapted General Self Efficacy (GSE) scales were distributed using the National Athletic Trainers' Association's Research Survey Service. The adapted GSE scales asked participants to rate their agreeance from 1 (not at all true) to 4 (exactly true) for 10 statements focused on injury evaluations in 6 areas. Descriptive statistics were calculated, and nonparametric tests were used to determine the differences in GSE scores based on course delivery modality (online model, hybrid model, and traditional face-to-face model). Measures of central tendencies were also calculated.

Results

Only completed surveys (66.4%; 95/143) were included in the analysis (access rate = 14.3%). A significant difference existed between course delivery modality and upper extremity GSE scores (P = .001). No significant differences were found between GSE scores for courses with delivery modalities affected or not affected by the COVID-19 pandemic as well as between athletic training students who had or did not have previous online or hybrid course experiences.

Conclusion(s)

As health care education continues to shift toward technology-rich environments, educators can consider offering courses through various delivery modalities to promote didactic and clinical education. However, consideration of the content area and difficulty may be warranted while purposefully planning courses to best address learning objectives and students' SE.
Association of hormonal and reproductive risk factors with breast cancer in Indian women: A systematic review of case–control studies
Authors: Maurya Ajeet P. , Brahmachari Swagata
Published: October 2022

The incidence of breast cancer in India has seen a rapid increase in recent years. Hormonal and reproductive risk factors for breast cancer have been affected by socioeconomic development. Studies on breast cancer risk factors in India are limited by the small sample size and specific geographical area. The current systematic review was carried out to assess the association of hormonal and reproductive risk factors with breast cancer in Indian women. A systematic review of MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, and Cochrane database of systematic reviews were done. Relevant case–control studies published in peer-reviewed indexed journals were analyzed for hormonal risk factors such as age at menarche, menopause, and first childbirth; breastfeeding; abortion; and oral contraceptive pills use. Younger age (<13 years) at menarche was associated with high risk (odds ratio 1.23–3.72). Other hormonal risk factors with strong association were age at first childbirth and menopause, parity, and duration of breastfeeding. Abortion and the use of contraceptive pills did not have a clear association with breast cancer. Hormonal risk factors have a higher association in premenopausal disease and estrogen receptor–positive tumors. There is a strong association between hormonal and reproductive risk factors and breast cancer in Indian women. The protective effect of breastfeeding is related to the cumulative duration of breastfeeding.
