Pandemic and Family Caregiving in Rural Areas. Reflections After a Participatory Digital Health Intervention in Valle Camonica
Authors: Morelli Niccolò
Published: March 2022

The current pandemic has resulted in the withdrawal of all social and health services not aimed at combatting COVID-19. This has led to a weakening of care services for family caregivers, especially in remote areas. Moreover, the pandemic has revealed all the frailties of a socio-health system that rarely involves caregivers in the co-design of services. However, in recent years, there has been a debate about the importance of promoting participatory interventions to support carers. Digital health (DH) intervention has been suggested as a successful tool to as-sist remote carers and engage them. This article reflects on the outcomes of a participatory DH intervention in Valle Camonica for family caregivers. The results indicated how DH could be a valid solution to train caregivers safely and effectively, but also how these interventions could not be considered as a panacea for all the weaknesses of health and social services. Mutual psychological support and community belonging among caregivers are not optimal in a remote connection dimension. This article contributes to the literature on the engagement of caregivers in the co-design of care interventions, with particular attention to DH, by pointing out by pointing out certain aspects that need to be considered in the implementation amongst a fragile population in a rural setting.
Salute attraverso le sbarre. Percorsi di cura tra carcere e territorio
Authors: Rodelli Maddalena , Sterchele Luca
Published: March 2022

This article presents a study on consequences of the Italian prison health care reform in rela-tion to the issue of prisoners' continuity of care. The research relies on qualitative data collected through semi-structured interviews conducted with 25 health care professionals working in eight prison facilities in northern Italy. From data analysis three themes particularly relevant for the research question emerged. The first theme concerns the difficulties in managing the specific needs of detained patients; the second concerns the role of the National Healthcare System for the most vulnerabilized prisoners; and the last explore the relationship between prison and local health services after prison release. Results highlight some critical issues in the treatment of detained patients and in the relationship between prisons and local health ser-vices. The role of this issues in hindering continuity of care for the prison population are critically discussed.
Ne plus pouvoir aimer: le récit de Tristan «vieux, Pd, handicapé»
Authors: Brasseur Pierre
Published: March 2022

Cet article propose la présentation et l'analyse d'un entretien, une «étude d'un cas», autour des interactions entre handicaps, sexualité, sentiments, et vieillesse afin de donner à voir ce que peut-être, et ce qu'a été, la sexualité et l'amour de Tristan qui se décrit lui-même comme un «vieux Pd handicapé». Cet article cher-che à interroger la destinée des trentenaires homosexuels masculins français, dont le portrait avait été dessiné par Pollak et Schiltz au cours des années 80. Il ne s'agit évidemment pas sur cette base d'analyser les comportements moyens de l'homosexuel âgé de plus de 50 ans, qui plus est handicapé, mais plutôt d'étudier, à travers un entretien riche et euristique, la sexualité de Tristan et ses significations, et notamment la façon dont il traite cette impression de sortir d'un marché matri-monial et sexuel. Mots clés: handicap; vieillesse; Michael Pollak; homosexualité; étude de cas.

El impacto de la era digital en los archivos históricos estatales españoles. Una visión personal en la encrucijada del III milenio
Authors: F. Gómez Vozmediano Miguel
Published: March 2022

«el uso o aplicación de las tecnologías digitales es absolutamente imprescindible pero no suficiente, pues, además, es necesario realizar las transformaciones culturales que implica la digitalización, ya que es una nueva forma de vivir, de trabajar y de relacionarse; es un cambio cultural consecuencia de la Revolución Digital en la que nos encontramos»1. Nel contesto di una società sempre più tecnologica, l'autore riflette sui significativi sviluppi e progressi di cui gli archivi spagnoli sono stati protagonisti lungo la loro storia, concentrando poi l'attenzione sull'attuale situazione della gestione dei patrimonio documentario custodiale per tali istituzioni pubbliche. Dopo aver affrontato i risultati ottenuti attraverso la piattaforma PARES 2.0, strutturata nella rete degli Archivi Statali dipendenti dal Ministero della Cultura e dello Sport, egli fornisce una visione personale dei risultati raggiunti fino a oggi, soffermandosi sulle principali sfide poste dall'immediato futuro.
La dimensione urbana delle epidemie: riflessioni su città e malattie in Europa nel xix secolo
Authors: Maria Oteri Annunziata , Tiganea Oana Cristina
Published: March 2022

Il saggio analizza gli effetti di epidemie e malattie nell'organizzazione e nell'uso degli spazi urbani in età contemporanea in ambito europeo. L'obiettivo è di indagare, in una prospettiva storica, la relazione tra città e malattie e riflettere sui cambiamenti che le epidemie hanno comportato nel tempo nei modi di percezione e fruizione della città. Il saggio indaga inoltre le resistenze al cambiamento che in molti casi hanno compromesso l'efficacia dei provvedimenti adottati, sottolineando quella propensione alla ‘dimenticanza' che l'umanità sempre manifesta di fronte alle catastrofi.Il contributo analizza strategie, metodi e pratiche, talvolta rivoluzionari, posti in atto dal tardo Settecento per prevenire e contrastare il dilagare di epidemie e mali contagiosi, nonché gli esiti indotti, e propone una riflessione finale su similitudini e differenze tra le esperienze del passato e quanto sta accadendo nell'attuale stagione pandemica.

Published: March 2022

Quale impatto avrà la pandemia in relazione al ritorno nei territori marginali e al conseguente ripopolamento dei borghi storici che a questi territori appartengono?Il recente e intenso dibattito, nonché le opportunità che potranno scaturire dal Next Generation EU, sembrano dare qualche segnale positivo per tornare ad abitare questi luoghi grazie alla soluzione di almeno alcuni dei problemi che ne avevano aggravato lo spopolamento.Ciò che non sembra ancora sufficientemente indagato, invece, è il ruolo che in questo processo potrebbe giocare proprio la consistenza storica dei borghi cosiddetti marginali, il loro costruito e opportuna conservazione.L'analisi di alcune strategie nate pre-pandemia, che a causa di essa hanno avuto un impulso, è occasione per avviare alcune riflessioni sul tema.
Fragilità urbane, mobilità e politiche di contrasto al Covid in Africa
Authors: Mazzolini Anna , Fedeli Valeria , Concilio Grazia
Published: March 2022

Alcuni contesti urbani necessitano di una mobilità permanente e flessibile di beni e persone come condizione per la vita collettiva e il sostentamento di base. Per questi contesti la pandemia ha concretizzato sfide che non possono essere analizzate con paradigmi cognitivi di origine americo-euro-centrica.Per la città di Maputo, l'articolo riflette sulle fragilità urbane dell'Africa subsahariana, analizzando le misure di prevenzione della pandemia in relazione alla mobilità come fattore di co-produzione della città. In tal senso si ridefiniscono i concetti di urbano e dimobilità e si propongono strategie di analisi e strumenti di osservazione capillari da supportare con una oculata governance dei dati.
Un modello di ripartenza post Covid per i territori fragili di montagna. Il caso di twin
Authors: Giudici Diana , Dezio Catherine , Donadoni Ettore , Fera Anna
Published: March 2022

La recente pandemia ha riportato i territori montani al centro dei dibattiti politici e accademici, fornendo un'importante occasione per pensare a un progetto di ripartenza. Con la prospettiva di valorizzare il potenziale montano, il turismo post-Covid può farsi promotore di una rigenerazione complessiva, di luoghi e comunità. In quest'ottica il binomio turismo lento su linea (sentieri, cammini e ciclabili) e inclusione sociale può diventare un'opportunità per una strategia unitaria di rilancio dei territori. Per esplorare questa possibilità vieneanalizzato il caso del progetto Trekking Walking Cycling for Inclusion (TWIN), un modello replicabile, pensato per trasformare le fragilità in punto di forza.
Dal mito dell'efficienza all'obiettivo della transizione energetica. Una sfida per gli edifici storici
Authors: del Curto Davide
Published: March 2022

Il DL ‘Rilancio' n. 34 del 19 maggio 2020 combina gli obiettivi della transizione energetica con il sostegno al settore delle costruzioni. Inoltre, promuovendo il recupero e il riuso degli edifici esistenti, contribuisce a contrastare lo spopolamento dei territori marginali. D'altra parte, migliorare l'efficienza energetica spesso richiede di aggiungere strati isolanti o impianti di generazionelocale, incompatibili con i caratteri tipologici e il valore culturale di un edificio storico.Partendo da una riflessione sul rapporto tra cultura della tutela e cultura della sostenibilità, questo articolo discute l'impatto atteso di queste misure sugli edifici storici e sui processi di marginalizzazione nei territori fragili.

Attività di ricerca sul possibile contributo del teatro sociale per la tutela e promozione della salute
Authors: Pasetto Roberto , Pizzi Enrica , Possenti Valentina
Published: March 2022

Il presente contributo ha la finalità di porre le basi per attività di ricerca volte allo sviluppo di laboratori di teatro sociale che abbiano come macro-obiettivo la tutela e promozione della salute. Inizialmente, si descrivono le caratteristiche dei laboratori di teatro sociale che li identificano come contesti privilegiati per condurre attività di ricerca; segue quindi una disamina epistemologica sul concetto di salute e della sua promozione, e sono poi rappresentate le dimensioni di salute associate all'ambiente di vita. Infine, si traduce quanto trattato nella traccia di sviluppo di un percorso di ricerca, i cui elementi qualificanti sono: a) l'obiettivo salute in termini di "abilità funzionale"; b) l'adozione dell'approccio life-course per fasi di vita; c) la considerazione delle relazioni con l'ambiente naturale tra i domini propri della tutela e promozione della salute, oltre che delle dimensioni del modello bio-psico-sociale.
Le pratiche teatrali nella formazione degli operatori sociali per costruire relazioni di ben-essere
Authors: Tesauro Tiziana , Tarsia Tiziana
Published: March 2022

Il contributo descrive e analizza un'esperienza di teatro dell'oppresso organizzata in ambito universitario e la usa come pretesto per ragionare sullo stretto legame che esiste tra il benessere psico-sociale degli operatori sociali, la loro formazione come professionisti e le tecniche del teatro sociale. Nel testo viene valorizzata la circolarità tra il sapere dell'esperienza e quello teorico in un frame che promuove il teatro come spazio di potenzialità e di consapevolezza. In questo spazio i social workers possono sperimentare la possibilità di gestire il proprio potere ed esplorare i conflitti che emergono nella relazione di aiuto per restituire benessere a se stessi e alle persone accolte nei servizi. Le conclusioni, infine, sollecitano domande e riflessioni che mirano a sottolineare l'importanza della formazione degli operatori sociali nella costruzione di politiche sociali che partono dalle comunità e veicolano relazioni di interdipendenza e, allo stesso tempo, tendono all'emancipazione delle persone.
Teatro sociale e psicologia transculturale: un approccio multidisciplinare per il benessere individuale e delle comunità
Authors: Ortuso Luisa
Published: March 2022

All'interno del dialogo tra teatro sociale e psicologia l'autrice esplora alcuni livelli di intervento che possono portare a una ricaduta positiva sul benessere dell'individuo e della collettività. La dimensione artistica, strutturandosi come terreno di azione comune, di confronto e critica sociale, offre in sé uno strumento culturale alternativo che permette di sviluppare una posizione di decentramento e trasformazione. In particolare si farà riferimento ad un'area di crescente interesse dell'Applied Theatre: il lavoro nell'area della migrazione. La riflessione, supportata dall'esperienza pratica, è orientata ad identificare criticità e buone prassi in un ambito trasversale al teatro e alla psicologia transcul-turale.
Life-history Parameters of Shield-Head Catfish Synodontis Schall (Bloch and Schneider, 1801) in the Nile River, Egypt
Authors: Mehanna Sahar Fahmy
Published: March 2022

Age and growth, mortality, and exploitation level of the shield-head catfish Synodontis schall inhabiting River Nile, Egypt are studied to evaluate its fishery status and proposed some reference points for its sustainability. A total number of 805 specimens comprising of 306 males and 499 females with the size range of 16.7 - 37.8 cm TL (mean = 26.71 ± 3.58) were investigated. The weight of specimens ranged from 60.0 to 650 g (mean = 194.88 ± 26.58). Statistically, there is no difference between males and females in the longevity and population parameters so all parameters were estimated for sexes combined. The maximum life span of this species was 4 years based on the pectoral fin spine sections. Asymptotic total length (L∞) was 42.25 cm, growth coefficient (K) was 0.42 yr-1, and theoretical age at zero-length (t0) was -0.36 yr, while the growth performance index (Ø’) was 2.87. The instantaneous total, natural, and fishing mortality coefficients were 1.23, 0.54, and 0.69 yr-1, respectively. The Exploitation rate (E) was 0.56. The body length at first sexual maturity (Lm) and mean selection length (Lc) were estimated at 24.1 and 23.6 cm, respectively. There is selective fishing mortality towards smaller fish sizes reflecting the adverse impact of fishing effort. Therefore, for management purposes, it is recommended to increase the length at first capture to maintain sufficient spawning biomass for recruitment and monitoring the exploitation level to control the fishing effort.
Kutnohorite CaMn(CO3)2 crystal growth at high pressure-temperature
Authors: Li Rui , Li Lin , Bai Jie , Liang Wen , Tang Hongfeng
Published: March 2022

High quality kutnohorite CaMn(CO3)2 single crystals up to 100 μm in size were successfully achieved under high pressure-temperature (P-T) conditions. Electron microprobe analyses revealed the average wt% of CaO was 25.98% and that of MnO was 32.88%, correspondingly well to the ideal formula of Ca1.0Mn1.0(CO3)2. Accurate crystalline structural data were determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), with the R3 space group and R3c space group used to refine the crystal structure of CaMn(CO3)2. The Ca-O and Mn-O bond lengths were slightly different when using the R3 space group, which were clearly distinguished from those in the dolomite structure. Therefore, R3c is the most probable space group for the CaMn(CO3)2 crystal structure. Thermogravimetric (TG) analysis and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) showed that CaMn(CO3)2 decomposed from 620–750 °C, but only one endothermic peak was observed during the decomposition process. It indicated that the octahedral units in CaMn(CO3)2 have the same thermal stability due to the complete miscibility of Ca and Mn. The results of single crystal XRD and thermal analysis provided direct evidence that CaMn(CO3)2 has a calcitetype structure, not dolomite-type layered structure, which was in good agreement with the rigid model of rhombohedral carbonates.
The role of rubber rheology in tire tread extrusion: a review
Authors: Hopmann Ch. , Limper A. , Kammer S. , Sch�n M. , Drach M. , Facklam M.
Published: March 2022

The purpose of this review paper is to demonstrate the importance of rheology in rubber processing. Using the economically significant example of the extrusion of treads for vehicle tires, typical challenges in the processing of rubber are presented and their rheological origins are examined. The structure-property relationships between the components of a rubber compound and the rheological properties are considered in order to understand the cause-and-effect relationships. The most important mathematical models are presented to describe the complex flow behaviour of rubbers. In this context, shear and elongation viscosity, viscoelasticity, time-temperature superposition, wall slip and crosslinking kinetics are discussed. Important methods for characterizing the rheological properties are then discussed in the context of the rheological phenomena relevant for tread extrusion. Particular attention is paid to phenomenological rheometry in laboratory extrusion, high pressure capillary rheometry, oscillation rheometry and elongation rheometry. Finally, it is summarised what the causes of the typical processing problems are, with which parameters these can be described and with which methods these can be characterised. It is shown, that the typical processing problems, such as die swell and melt fracture, cannot be explained by the frequently used shear viscosity alone. Rather, the normal stresses occurring under the complex stress conditions of the viscoelastic rubber must be taken into account to explain these phenomena.

Authors: TAHU MARIA EMERENSIANA
Published: March 2022

Penelitian ini pada dasarnya merupakan suatu studi penelitian kelembagaan pada organisasi pemerintahan di dalam sistem pemerintahan negara. Pilihan terhadap studi penelitian kelembagaan dikarenakan berbagai temuan-temuan dan kajian terhadap organisasi-organisasi tersebut kurang maksimal.

Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode deskriptif kualitatif. Teknik pengumpulan data yakni observasi dan wawancara. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa upaya pemerintah sebenarnya sudah dilaksanakan dengan baik namun belum optimal. Belum optimalnya upaya pemerintah ini disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor penghambat yaitu antara lain: faktor minimnya sarana prasarana penunjang, kawasan perbatasan yang belum  dikelola dengan baik dan belum adanya konsep pembangunan yang jelas, komprehensif dan integratif, serta minimnya dorongan aktivitas ekonomi membuat hampir sebagian besar daerah perbatasanbelum optimal, sehingga mengakibatkan terjadinya perdagangan ilegal.

Dengan demikian disimpulkan bahwa upaya pemerintah pada hakekatnya sangat dibutuhkan   dalam   pembangunan   dan   perkembangan   suatu   Bangsa   dan   Negara.   Upaya pemerintah adalah suatu keputusan yang diambil oleh pemerintah dalam melakukan sesuatu atau tidak melakukan untuk tujuan tertentu. Alternatif solusi dalam penyelesaian masalah di  perbatasan,  disarankan  agar  pihak  pemerintah  dapat  berkoordinasi  dengan  instansi terkait dalam hal pemenuhan sarana pasar sebagai pasar perbatasan dan meningkatkan pengamanan perbatasan sehingga perdagangan ilegal dapat diminimalisir di wilayah perbatasan NKRI-RDTL Motamasin Kabupaten Malaka.

Ecological roles and importance of sea cows (Order: Sirenia): a review and prospectus
Authors: Wirsing AJ , Kiszka JJ , Allen AC , Heithaus MR
Published: March 2022

Sirenians (manatees Trichechus spp. and the dugong Dugong dugon) are large-bodied and almost exclusively herbivorous aquatic mammals occurring in coastal and freshwater habitats of most tropical and subtropical regions. Although sirenian ecology, habitat use, and abundance have been investigated across their range, little is known about the roles and impacts of these megaherbivores outside of the trophic relationships of 2 relatively well-studied species (T. manatus, D. dugon). This knowledge gap limits our understanding of how sirenians affect communities and ecosystem dynamics. We review the literature on the ecological roles and importance of sirenians in aquatic ecosystems, including the extinct Steller’s sea cow Hydrodamalis gigas. Our review reveals that sirenian herbivory and disturbance can markedly affect species biomass, productivity, and composition in macrophyte communities, thereby indirectly influencing other community members (e.g. invertebrates) and carbon storage in macrophyte biomass and sediments. Sirenians may also couple disparate ecosystems via their movements, compete with other herbivores, and serve as prey for, and be responsive to, predators, including humans. We also identify key knowledge gaps, including (1) the ecology of Amazonian T. inunguis and African T. senegalensis manatees, (2) experimental investigations of the magnitude of trophic impacts and their potential to cascade to other species and carbon dynamics, (3) the roles and impacts of sirenians as omnivores, and (4) the non-consumptive effects of predators on sirenians other than dugongs. Finally, we highlight crucial avenues for future sirenian research, including changes to their ecology in the face of ongoing seagrass declines and climate change.
Passive Sensing of Electrically Conductive Concrete for Lateral Vehicle Positioning
Authors: Dahal Sachindra , Roesler Jeffery
Published: March 2022

Autonomous vehicles (AV) offer multiple safety benefits for drivers and road agencies. Current AV technology allow for vehicle control, guidance, and navigation as well as communication with other vehicles and roadside infrastructure. To see significant penetration of Level 4 or 5 AV without compromising safety, redundant vehicle to infrastructure sensing capabilities are necessary especially during severe weather conditions. Existing vehicle technology is not able to communicate with the concrete and asphalt pavements without embedded sensors. An eddy current technique is proposed that detects local changes in the concrete's electrical conductance so that AV can determine their lateral lane position. Concrete slab specimens with varying dimensions and dosages of steel-fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) were tested under normal and adverse surface conditions (standing water or ice) as well as separation distance from the transmitter coil. The longitudinal segment of SFRC's material was successfully located as the coil moved laterally across the surface even under these adverse surface conditions. This pilot study demonstrates a reliable and robust technique using changes in the concrete's electrical conductance to provide lateral positioning redundancy to AV control and guidance.
Accounting of Strain Cycles Sustained by Airfield Rigid Pavements
Authors: Ioannides Anastasios M. , Harrison J. Andrew , Gonzalez Carlos R. , Bly Peter G.
Published: March 2022

The so-called 72-in. rule, employed in U.S. Department of Defense rigid pavement design for establishing the number of strain cycles arising under a pass of any aircraft on a particular pavement system, is re-examined using mechanistic tools, particularly layer elastic theory and dimensional analysis. Field data collected at Denver International Airport are reproduced using analytical simulations, which permit the generation of analogous synthetic results pertaining to different pavement systems and aircraft gear configurations. The analysis affirms the expectation that the criterion for establishing the number of strain cycles cannot be simply a fixed value, defined exclusively by the tandem wheel spacing. Rather, the dual wheel spacing and the radius of each tire-print must also be taken into consideration. In addition, the radius of relative stiffness of the pavement system needs to be accounted for. In this study, these variables are accommodated in the form of three dimensionless independent input parameters. The single dependent variable is the ratio (trough strain / maximum strain), denoted herein as υ. A process is formulated to ascertain whether υ is positive or negative: if υ>
0, then one strain cycle may be expected; if υ<0, then two strain cycles may be expected. Comparisons of the process outcomes to those from the 72-in. rule show excellent agreement for the Denver conditions, testifying to the admirable simplicity and laudable wisdom of the latter. The process may be further refined for application to more complex gear configurations, e.g., tridems.
Optimized Design Details for Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavements
Authors: Tayabji Shiraz , Plei Mike
Published: March 2022

Continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) is widely used by several highway agencies in the United States, typically for heavily-trafficked roadways. CRCP has the potential to provide long-term "zero-maintenance" service life under heavy traffic loadings and challenging environmental conditions, provided that proper design and quality construction practices are utilized. CRCP design focuses on managing the cracking that develops so as to reduce the structural distresses that may develop as a result of traffic and environmental loadings. These distresses include punchouts, steel rupture, and crack spalling. CRCP design involves determining the proper combination of slab thickness, concrete mixture constituents and properties, and steel reinforcement content and location; providing for sufficient slab-edge support; strengthening or treating the existing soils; and providing non-erodible bases that also provide friction, which leads to desirable transverse cracking patterns. In addition, CRCP design details must ensure that the large movement that can occur at CRCP terminal ends is managed adequately. Over the years, many improvements in the best practices in the design of CRCP have been implemented to improve long-term performance. These improvements have resulted from experience from the field, better understanding of CRCP behavior, improved structural modeling of CRCP, improved materials, and improved construction processes. This paper provides guidance on optimizing several key design features based on the information included in the previously cited references and recent refinements implemented in the field. These key design features include: optimizing longitudinal steel content, simplified details for terminal ends, improved transverse construction joint detail, shoulder type, and concrete slab/base interface.

Milletvekilleri büyük oranda lisans ve lisansüstü dereceden mezundur. Yaş ortalamaları ise 50 olup, yasama dönemleri arasında anlamlı bir farklılık bulunmamaktadır. Kuşaklar bazında yapılan değerlendirmeler kapsamında ise Türkiye Büyük Millet Meclisi’ne hâlihazırda X kuşağının hâkim olduğu, ilerleyen dönemlerde ise Y kuşağının çoğunluğu oluşturacağı belirtilebilir. Ulaşılan bir diğer sonuç ise Meclis’te İstanbul Üniversitesi ile Ankara Üniversitesinden mezun milletvekillerinin ağırlıkta olduğudur. Sonuç olarak seçilme yeterliliklerinde ayrıntılı düzenlemeler olmasa da uygulamada ülke yönetiminde söz sahibi olan kişilerin benzer özelliklere sahip olduğu söylenebilir.
(Un)constructed, Reconstructed and Deconstructed Again. An Examination of the Context, Reconstruction and Display Possibilities of Five Lace Panels for Use on a Gown, c. 1900–1910, at the MoMu Fashion Museum in Antwerp
Authors: Debackere Dries
Published: March 2022

This article studies five shaped panels of Duchesse de Bruxelles lace, part of the collection of the MoMu Fashion Museum in Antwerp. These handmade panels were created c. 1900 but never fashioned into a gown and, consequently, never worn. The first part of this article uses an object-based approach to examine how the panels might have looked if they had been constructed into a gown, what type of gown this would have been, to what occasions it would have been worn and by whom. In 2021, the renovated MoMu reopened with, in addition to its space for temporary exhibitions, a permanent display showing highlights from the museum collection. This unconstructed gown being a highlight of its historical lace collection, the museum is currently considering how to best exhibit it. The second part of this article therefore examines different display possibilities, ranging from a full reconstruction, to a deconstructed display, to the possibility of replication — all the while keeping in mind the ethics of conservation-restoration and display, and what it means to exhibit fashion.
A Regional Study of Women's Emotional Attachments to the Consumption and Making of Ordinary Clothing, Drawing on Archives in Leeds, West Yorkshire, 1939–1979
Authors: Almond Kevin , Evans Elaine
Published: March 2022

This research takes an interdisciplinary approach, investigating dress through the lens of regional social history by exploring women's emotional experiences related to making and consuming ordinary clothing in the period 1939–1979. A case study encouraged Yorkshire-based participants to reveal diverse stories associated with ordinary clothing. This brought the technical knowledge of making clothes and material-based research methodologies into dialogue with regional social history and helped us understand how ordinary people shaped the way women dressed. The research was funded by a grant from Leeds Museums and Galleries and University of Leeds Cultural Institute. It aimed to build a relationship between the users of the dress and textiles collection at Leeds Museums and Galleries and the Yorkshire Fashion Archive, housed at University of Leeds, which is a regionally focused collection of (mainly) twentieth-century garments and accessories. The collaboration allowed the museum curators and academics to discover how ordinary clothes can be used to engage the community with dress collections to discover and document untold stories of material culture in practice.
Assessment of impact of COVID-19 lockdown on air quality in national capital region of New Delhi, India

After the World Health Organization declared COVID-19
as pandemic on 11th March 2020, the Indian government adopted a complete phased lockdown strategy
starting from 23rd March until 31st May 2020. During this
period, road/rail/air traffic, industrial operations and offices were
completely restricted except for the essential services. Here, an attempt was
made to assess the effect of the lockdown period on five pollutants: PM10,
PM2.5, SO2, NOx, and ozone at three sites,
Jahangirpuri in North Delhi and Sonipat and Panipat townships located along the
national highway leading to north India. These pollutants, except ozone, decreased
at all sites during lockdown phase 1 compared to before lockdown. PM2.5
load reduced by 28.1, 33.5, and 40.8 % at Jahangirpuri, Sonipat and Panipat,
respectively. PM10 remained either close to or higher than National
Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) due to prevailing high-speed winds. NO2,
a precursor for formation of O3 decreased consistently at all sites,
except an increase in phase 3 at Panipat whereas O3 consistently
increased. This was a
paradoxical situation as O3 is formed by photochemical reactions
among NOx and volatile organic compounds, which require further
detailed studies. These observations indicate that air pollutants decreased
specific to the site(s) and pollutant(s). Such restriction can be applied in the
future to control air pollution in this region.
Lifestyles Under Lockdown: A Scoping Review of International Studies on Type 2 Diabetes Self-Management Behaviors During COVID-19
Authors: Cummings Caroline , Seng Kagnica , Tweet Ryan , Wagner Julie
Published: March 2022

Background

The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on diabetes self-management behaviors is unclear.

Objectives

This paper is a scoping review of studies examining health behaviors among people with type 2 diabetes during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Eligibility Criteria

We searched articles available in English using the Search terms “COVID” and “diabetes”, and, separately, each of the following terms: “lifestyle”, “health behavior”, “self-care”, “self-management”, “adherence”, “compliance”, “eating”, “diet”, “physical activity”, “exercise”, “sleep”, “self-monitoring of blood glucose”, or “continuous glucose monitoring”.

Sources of Evidence

We searched PubMed, PsychInfo, and Google Scholar databases from December 2019 through August 2021.

Charting Methods

Data were extracted by 4 calibrated reviewers and study elements were charted.

Results

The search identified 1,710 articles. After screening for relevance and eligibility, 24 articles were included in this review. Findings show the strongest evidence for reduced physical activity and stable glucose monitoring and substance use. There was equivocal evidence for deleterious changes in sleep, diet, and medication intake. With one minor exception, there was no evidence for favorable changes in health behaviors. Limitations of the literature include small samples, predominantly cross-sectional study designs, reliance on retrospective self-reports, sampling through social media, and few standardized measures.

Conclusions

Early studies of health behaviors among people with type 2 diabetes during the COVID-19 pandemic suggest a need for novel interventions to support diabetes self-management, especially targeting physical activity. Future studies should go beyond documenting changes in health behaviors and examine predictors of change over time.
Characterization of the Different Subtypes of Immune Cell Infiltration to Aid Immunotherapy
Authors: Li Zhenqing , Mao Kai , Ding Bo , Xue Qun
Published: March 2022

Background?PD-1 ablation or PD-L1 specific monoclonal antibody against PD-1 can recruit the accumulation of functional T cells, leading to tumor rejection in the microenvironment and significantly improving the prognosis of various cancers. Despite these unprecedented clinical successes, intervention remission rates remain low after treatment, rarely exceeding 40%. The observation of PD-1/L1 blocking in patients is undoubtedly multifactorial, but the infiltrating degree of CD8+T cell may be an important factor for immunotherapeutic resistance.

Methods:We proposed two computational algorithms to reveal the immune cell infiltration (ICI) landscape of 1646 lung adenocarcinoma patients. Three immune cell infiltration patterns were defined and the relative ICI scoring depended on principal-component analysis.

Results:A high ICI score was associated with the increased tumor mutation burden and cell proliferation-related signaling pathways. Different cellular signaling pathways were observed in low ICI score subtypes, indicating active cell proliferation, and may be associated with poor prognosis.

Conclusion:Our research identified that the ICI scores worked as an effective immunotherapy index, which may provide promising therapeutic strategies on immune therapeutics for lung adenocarcinoma.

Sensorineural hearing loss is caused by the loss of sensory hair cells and/or their innervating neurons within the inner ear and affects millions of people worldwide. In mammals, including humans, the underlying cell types are only produced during fetal stages making loss of these cells and the resulting consequences irreversible. In contrast, zebrafish produce sensory hair cells throughout life and additionally possess the remarkable capacity to regenerate them upon lesion. Recently, we showed that also inner ear neurogenesis continues to take place in the zebrafish statoacoustic ganglion (SAG) well into adulthood. The neurogenic niche displays presumptive stem cells, proliferating Neurod-positive progenitors and a high level of neurogenesis at juvenile stages. It turns dormant at adult stages with only a few proliferating presumptive stem cells, no proliferating Neurod-positive progenitors, and very low levels of newborn neurons. Whether the neurogenic niche can be reactivated and whether SAG neurons can regenerate upon damage is unknown. To study the regenerative capacity of the SAG, we established a lesion paradigm using injections into the otic capsule of the right ear. Upon lesion, the number of apoptotic cells increased, and immune cells infiltrated the SAG of the lesioned side. Importantly, the Neurod-positive progenitor cells re-entered the cell cycle displaying a peak in proliferation at 8 days post lesion before they returned to homeostatic levels at 57 days post lesion. In parallel to reactive proliferation, we observed increased neurogenesis from the Neurod-positive progenitor pool. Reactive neurogenesis started at around 4 days post lesion peaking at 8 days post lesion before the neurogenesis rate decreased again to low homeostatic levels at 57 days post lesion. Additionally, administration of the thymidine analog BrdU and, thereby, labeling proliferating cells and their progeny revealed the generation of new sensory neurons within 19 days post lesion. Taken together, we show that the neurogenic niche of the adult zebrafish SAG can indeed be reactivated to re-enter the cell cycle and to increase neurogenesis upon lesion. Studying the underlying genes and pathways in zebrafish will allow comparative studies with mammalian species and might provide valuable insights into developing cures for auditory and vestibular neuropathies.
