O doméstico e o internacional como discurso normativo: a legitimação do uso da força
Authors: Succi Junior David Paulo
Published: April 2020

O objeto deste artigo é o emprego das forças armadas no interior das fronteiras estatais. Este fenômeno é caracterizado pela bibliografia especializada como uma ruptura com as funções normais dos instrumentos de força. Defendemos, porém, que o parâmetro de normalidade pressuposto pela literatura não reflete a descrição de um padrão histórico, mas consiste no modelo teórico normativo fundante das Relações Internacionais, que divide o mundo em unidades políticas pacificadas internamente e um espaço internacional anárquico. Esta abordagem teórica pressupõe a sobreposição entre território, autoridade política e comunidade, que dificulta a compreensão da recorrência histórica do emprego interno das forças armadas, assim como dos casos em que a atuação militar no âmbito doméstico está incorporada à normalidade jurídica e social. Analisamos cada um dos elementos que compõem este modeloteórico, tensionando sua coalescência. Com o objetivo de preencher a lacuna identificada, propomos uma abordagem pautada no processo de legitimação, através do qual o uso dos militares no interior das fronteiras do Estado torna-se aceitável.
A ZOPACAS como a manifestação de um projeto de construção regional Brasileiro para o Atlântico Sul: uma leitura crítica (1986-2013)
Authors: Novelli Douglas , Pereira Alexsandro
Published: April 2020

O artigo insere-se em um conjunto de estudos sobre construção de regiões, entendidas aqui como construtos cognitivos atrelados a projetos políticos, manifestadas por meio do discurso dos atores. Busca verificar a hipótese de que a Zona de Paz e Cooperação do Atlântico Sul (ZOPACAS) foi criada e mantida como um projeto de construção regional brasileiro para o espaço oceânico em questão. É aplicado o método da análise de conteúdo qualitativa a 27 documentos, divididos entre discursos de representantes brasileiros nas Reuniões Ministeriais da ZOPACAS e circulares internas do Ministério das Relações Exteriores Brasileiro, datadas dos anos de 1986 a 2013 e coletados diretamente no Arquivo Histórico do MRE entre os dias 22 e 25 de agosto de 2017. Os dados sugerem que a ZOPACAS de fato se trata da manifestação de um projeto regional brasileiro para o Atlântico Sul, cujo momento de maior relevância ocorreu em sua primeira década, caindo no ostracismo desde então. Embora a retomada da iniciativa em 2007 tenha sinalizado um potencial renascimento do projeto, os dados coletados sugerem que o espaço oceânico comum continua sendo de baixa relevância no discurso do governo brasileiro, sobretudo se comparado ao seu período áureo.
The Expression Pattern of Prostaglandin-Endoperoxide Synthase-2 in Immature Oocytes and Surrounding Cumulus Cells May Explain A Disrupted Oocyte Maturation Process
Authors: Kuspinar Goktan , Avcı Berrin
Published: April 2020

Objective: To evaluate the correlation between the gene expression of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase-2 in the cumulus-oocyte complex with the level of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase-2 in follicular fluid and follicle diameter, oocyte maturation, and fertilization capacity.Study Design: As the study group, 26 cumulus-oocyte complexes and 26 follicular fluids obtained from immature (n=10) or unfertilized mature oocytes (n=16) and as the control group, 26 cumulus complexes and 26 follicular fluids surrounding mature and fertilized oocytes were retrieved one by one totally from 32 patients in 32 intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles. Results: There was no significant efficacy of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase-2 gene expressions in cumulus complexes and the level of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase-2 in follicular fluids in terms of oocyte maturation stage. The level of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase-2 in follicular fluids and follicle diameters showed a significantly positive correlation in the mature and fertilized oocyte group (r=0.414; p=0.035). Conclusions: Although the prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase-2 gene expressions in immature oocytes and their cumulus cells were similar to those in oocytes that have completed their nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation, the level of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthases-2 in the follicular fluid and follicle diameter correlation may lead to new clinical approaches in cases of premature follicular rupture before oocyte maturation is completed.
Is household water insecurity a link between water governance and well-being? A multi-site analysis
Authors: Miller Joshua D. , Vonk Jaynie , Staddon Chad , Young Sera L.
Published: April 2020

Improving water governance is a top priority for addressing the global water crisis. Yet, there is a dearth of empirical data examining whether better water governance is associated with lower water insecurity and improved well-being. We, therefore, pooled household data from two Sustainable Water Effectiveness Reviews conducted by Oxfam GB in Zambia (n = 997) and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC, n = 1,071) to assess the relationship between perceived water governance (using a 12-item indicator), water insecurity [using the Household Water Insecurity Experiences (HWISE) Scale], and four indicators of well-being: life satisfaction, drinking unsafe water, diarrhea, and resilience to cholera outbreak. Using generalized structural equation models controlling for wealth and primary water source, each point increase in water governance score was associated with a 0.69-point decrease in HWISE Scale scores. Good water governance was also directly associated with greater odds of life satisfaction (aOR 1.24) and lower odds of both drinking unsafe water (aOR 0.91) and severe cholera impact (aOR 0.92). Furthermore, the relationships between water governance and drinking unsafe water, diarrhea, and cholera impact were mediated by household water insecurity. Improving water governance has the potential to meaningfully impact entrenched public health issues through changes in water insecurity.
Trace metal requirements for anaerobic co-digestion of sewage sludge from rural areas and food waste in Japan
Authors: Nakamura Masato , Shibata Hirohiko , Yamaoka Masaru , Oritate Fumiko
Published: April 2020

For small-scale wastewater treatment plants in rural areas (WWTPRs) of Japan, reducing sludge disposal costs is an important issue. Co-digestion of sludge from WWTPRs and food waste is a promising method of reducing maintenance costs and producing energy resources such as methane. In this study, co-digestion experiments using sludge and kitchen garbage were conducted to investigate the stability of the co-digestion from the perspective of trace metal requirements. The gas production rate and pH were stable in the digester with HRTs of 140–70 days. With a HRT of 30 days, the pH gradually dropped from 7.0 to 6.5, and VFA accumulated up to a concentration of 2,200 mg/L, indicating process failure. Cobalt (Co) concentration was approximately one-tenth of the required amount reported by a previous study. When Co was added to the digester, the pH and gas production rate became stable even with a higher VS loading rate. Therefore, the unstable situation was attributed to a lack of Co in the sludge. The Co concentration of sludge from WWTPRs in Japan is generally low, similar to the sludge used in this study. The addition of Co is required for stable co-digestion of sludge from WWTPRs and food waste.

La territorialidad del indígena americano de la tierra alta del norte de la Baja California
Authors: Michelsen Ralph
Published: April 2020

Ralph Michelsen explora la idea de territorialidad entre los indígenas de Baja California como sujetos de otro tipo de realidad; un tiempo cuando el usufructo de la tierra se ceñía a reglas aborígenes particulares en contraste con las formas de tenencia de la tierra actuales y la noción de "país" que en el mundo prevalece. Su finalidad se logra mediante una reconstrucción histórica que le permite hacer propuestas sobre la percepción del espacio geográfico por los miembros de unidades lingüísticas y/o de parentesco.
Sociedades prehistóricas o históricas en las Californias. Ensayo de un momento de su historicidad
Authors: Echenique March Felipe I.
Published: April 2020

En la actualidad un buen número de textos que refieren descripciones de tiempos pretéritos son considerados como obras historiográficas de primera mano. Lo anterior los cubre con un halo de intocabilidad en cualquiera de sus partes, hasta no dejamos distinguir lo que son apreciaciones convertidas en dogma y juicios de valor de lo que sólo son descripciones más o menos plausibles de lo visto. El autor de este ensayo pretende desprenderse de esos prejuicios y se arriesga a proponer otra lectura de los clásicos, donde rescata de los textos las partes y referencias que considera alumbran una nueva manera de ver la historia de los naturales que poblaban y dominaban las Californias antes de la llegada de los españoles.
Applicability of the approximation of Stokes for calculating the velocity of a steam-air jet over a locally heated water surface
Authors: Aktaev Nurken E. , Penkina Tatiana A.
Published: April 2020

This paper presents a mathematical model of an air steam flow arising above a locally heated water surface. The model is based on the system of equations of free convection in the Boussinesq approximation and is implemented as a computer program in C language. Numerical simulation aided in obtaining the velocity fields of the jet are obtained at various values of the water surface temperature. The values of the flow velocities obtained in the framework of the Stokes approximation are compared with the calculated values based on the results of experiments on the levitation of water droplets. As a result of the comparison, the condition of the applicability of the approximation of Stokes to estimate the velocity of an air steam flow is formulated.

Published: April 2020

Dengue Fever (DF) has emerged as a significant public health problem of international concern with its high prevalence in the tropic and subtropical regions. Dengue Virus (DENV), which is the cause of DF, consists of four serotypes of antigenically distinct viruses. The immense variation and limited identity similarity at the amino acid level lead to a problematic challenge in the development of an efficacious vaccine. Fortunately, the extensively available immunological data, the advance in antigenic peptide prediction, and the incorporation of molecular docking and dynamics simulation in immunoinformatics have directed the vaccine development towards the rational design of the epitope-based vaccine. Here, we point out the current state of dengue epidemiology and the recent development in vaccine development. Subsequently, we provide a systematic review of our validated method and tools for B- and T-cell epitope prediction as well as the use of molecular docking and dynamics in evaluating epitope affinity and stability in the discovery of a new tetravalent dengue vaccine through computational epitope-based vaccine design.
Impact of a Health System's Three-Pronged Strategy to Address the Opioid Epidemic in DE, PA, and WV, 2013-2017
Authors: DeShazer Charles , Dominic Oralia , DeLeo Caesar , Johnson Rhonda
Published: April 2020

Background:

In the past two decades, from 1999-2017, more than 700,000 people have died from a drug overdose in the United States. In 2017, more than 68% of the drug overdose deaths involved an opioid, and the opioid death rate was six times higher than in 1999. Although treatable, opioid addiction has significant health consequences; and evidence-based, data-driven models addressing these opioid-related factors remain sparse.

Objectives:

To help stem this epidemic, Highmark Inc., a national health plan as well as the second largest integrated delivery and financing system in America, developed, implemented and evaluated a series of quality management-focused opioid interventions utilizing a three-pronged public health approach. We focused on more effectively managing pain to reduce the need for opioids (primary prevention); when needed, prescribing opioids according to safe prescribing guidelines (secondary prevention); and for those with Opioid Use Disorder (OUD), ensuring access to effective treatment to reduce morbidity/mortality (tertiary prevention) for our members.

Methods:

We deployed a series of evidence-based and data-driven interventions utilizing clinical guidelines, integrated and coordinated infrastructures, and community-based participatory research frameworks within our service areas of Delaware, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. We examined medical and pharmacy claims for combined data years 2013-2017 by age, product (commercial, diagnosis with OUD), total Opioid prescription (RX) fill rate (per 1,000 members), opioid use by dose (dosage level by Morphine Milligram Equivalents), opioid use by duration (number days of opioid use), rate per 1,000 members diagnosed with OUD, and geography.

Results:

Improvements in total Opioid RX fills, opioid use by dose and duration for members diagnosed with OUD. Over these years, a decrease of 19% of total Opioid RX fills; shorter durations and the majority of these members switched to 7 days or less of opioid use; and a reduction by 13 percentage point of the number of members on higher strength 20+ MMEs opioids resulted.

Conclusion:

These findings may help inform nationwide opioid-focused efforts and set priorities.

Frutos modernos de árvores barrocas: estratégias de adaptação de sermões do padre António Vieira para banda desenhada
Authors: Thimóteo Saulo Gomes
Published: April 2020

O Padre António Vieira, em seus sermões, busca a cadência verbal e um jogo de imagens, ideias e conceitos para criar um texto em fluidez que se constrói aos olhos do leitor. Contudo, em muito se distancia a sociedade do século XXI daquela que viu e ouviu tais textos, no século XVII. Assim, é necessário que novas abordagens para os textos vieirianos sejam apresentadas, no sentido de problematizá-lo às novas gerações. Utilizando processos de adaptação, é possível dar nova roupagem à obra do jesuíta português, ilustrando os raciocínios de argumentação e as alegorias e exemplos dados em forma de banda desenhada. Com isso, esse trabalho pretende examinar conceitos como adaptação, transposição e intermedialidade, elementos constitutivos do pensamento e da estrutura verbal de Vieira e sua aplicabilidade nas novas Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação. Tomando como exemplo as produções de banda desenhada desenvolvidas no âmbito do projeto de pesquisa Leituras da obra do padre António Vieira: A arquitetura lógica, a construção retórica e a atualidade argumentativa, especialmente a baseada no Sermão do bom ladrão, mostra-se como, por meio da articulação entre linguagem verbal e não verbal, é possível construir caminhos para novos leitores da obra do Padre Vieira.
Estudando textos em redes sociais: Do ensino de leitura à utilização de materiais didáticos
Authors: Da Silva Williany Miranda
Published: April 2020

A constatação de que os textos são materializados em gêneros promove uma perspectiva de estudo sobre a linguagem que não a dissocia desse objeto –seja para o estudo seja para o ensino em suas múltiplas particularidades. Para o presente artigo, apresentamos uma reflexão sobre as práticas de leitura escolarizadas e não escolarizadas a partir da relação que se estabelece entre a fotografia (texto imagético) e os comentários decorrentes. A análise dos objetos em foco destaca que as estratégias de compreensão ativadas de forma mais recorrente pelos leitores se baseiam na superficialidade das evidências. Além disso, as escassas manifestações de estratégias que mobilizam outras evidências, nem sempre aparentes, apontam para a necessidade de um redimensionamento no tratamento dado aos textos e à leitura, em outros moldes, considerando-se, por exemplo, a multimodalidade.
Intertextualidade multimodal
Authors: Garcia Carlos Eduardo Nunes
Published: April 2020

A intertextualidade é um conceito que está presente nos estudos linguísticos desde Kristeva (1969). Assim, a noção de que os textos podem acontecer em intertextos é pacífica na área de linguística textual (Koch &Elias2010; entre outros). É inegável também que o desenvolvimento de novas tecnologias no século XXI, especialmente as do mundo digital, tem possibilitado o surgimento de novos gêneros textuais, como os memes(Marcuschi2008), que, por sua vez, tendem a fazer uso de diversos modos de linguagem, nos termos de Kress e Van Leeuwen (2001). O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar a Intertextualidade como um fenômeno multimodal cuja abordagem em ambientes pedagógicos é uma ferramenta de temas geradores (Freire2014 [1968]).

DETERMINATION OF THE OPTIMAL DISTRIBUTION OF SUPPORTS IN THE FLOOR SLABS OF IN-DUSTRIAL BUILDINGS USING STOCHASTIC METHODS
Authors: Efimenko E. A. , Bekkiev M. Yu. , Mayilyan D. R. , Chepurnenko A. S.
Published: April 2020

Abstract. Aim. The purpose of the study is to determine the optimal location of supports used in the floor slab of an industrial building.

Method. In order to determine the optimal arrangement of the columns, a Monte Carlo algorithm was used in combination with the finite element method. The calculation was carried out on the basis of the theory of elastic thin plates.

Results. The article presents a solution to the problem of determining the optimal location of a given number of point-supports of a floor slab n from the condition of minimum objective function. For the objective function, the maximum deflection of the slab, the potential energy of deformation and the flow rate of reinforcement were selected as variables. The selection of reinforcement was carried out in accordance with current generally-accepted standards for the design of reinforced concrete structures. The calcu-lations were performed using a program developed by the authors in the MATLAB computing environment. The results are given for n = 3,4,5. The algorithm, which has been modified for a large num-ber of supports n, is presented alongside a comparison of the basic and modified algorithm with n = 25. The possibility of a significant reduction in plate deformations with an irregular arrangement of supports compared to a regular distribution is shown.

Conclusion. A method is proposed for finding the rational locations of point supports for a floor slab for a given quantity from the condition of min-imum deflection, potential strain energy and consumption of reinforcement materials based on the Monte Carlo method. This technique is suitable for arbitrary slab configurations and arbitrary loads. A modification of the algorithm is presented that is suitable for a large number of supports. The test example shows that the maximum deflection can be reduced by 42% when using an irregular support configuration compared to regular column spacing. In the considered examples, the position of all the supports was previously considered unknown, but the developed algorithm easily allows for stationary supports, whose position does not change.

Abstract. Aim. The aim of the study is to develop algorithmic support based on a frame model for information retrieval and selection of a flexible manufacturing system (FMS), as well as its technical units and control system in accordance with a process flow diagram.

Method. An intelligent method based on a frame model is used in order to create a search and selection algorithm. The FRL programming language was used for programming the frame model.

Results. In accordance with the published guidelines for ensuring the management and operation of archival design work, a comparative analysis of information support algorithms was carried out to in order to select flexible production systems (FPS) comprising standard elements, production modules, layout schemes and a set of information about their parameters or the location of documents. The model for creating algorithmic support was based on the modelling frame for the effective search and selection of the FMS, while its production modules and active elements were implemented in accordance with the scope of production and the purposes of each technical unit.

Conclusion. To ensure the reliable functioning of the FMS automatic control system, an algorithm is proposed for searching sensors based on frame slots and achievable positioning errors of industrial robots and technological equipment. An algorithm for locating sensors and controlling the active elements of an FMS production module is presented.
Aangeboren afwijkingen van de wervels bij de hond
Authors: De Rycke L. , Saunders J. H.
Published: April 2020

In dit artikel wordt een overzicht gegeven van aangeboren afwijkingen van de wervels bij honden. Vertebrale anomalieën komen geregeld voor bij deze dieren en kunnen onderverdeeld worden in twee grote groepen, namelijk spinaal dysrafisme zoals spina bifida met of zonder meningocoele en dermale sinus, en anomalieën van de vertebrale kolom. Deze laatste groep kan worden opgesplitst in malformaties die hun ontstaan vinden in de embryonale ontwikkelingsperiode, zoals vlinderwervels, medio-laterale wigwervels en transitionele wervels, of in de foetale periode, zoals blokwervels en dorsoventrale wigwervels. Aangeboren anomalieën van de wervels kunnen toevalsbevindingen zijn op RX of CT, maar soms zijn ze de onderliggende oorzaak van klinische, meestal neurologische problemen. Door druk op het ruggenmerg kunnen symptomen zoals ataxie van de achterste ledematen, parese, verlies van spinale reflexen, kyfose, lordose, scoliose, incontinentie en atrofie van de spieren van de achterste ledematen optreden.

In deze retrospectieve studie wordt het gebruik van desoxycorticosterone-pivalaat beschreven bij acht honden met primair hypoadrenocorticisme die aangeboden werden op de vakgroep Kleine Huisdieren (Faculteit Diergeneeskunde, UGent). Uit de resultaten bleek dat desoxycorticosteronepivalaat adequaat was voor de supplementatie van mineralocorticoïden in alle gevallen, ook bij de honden die voordien behandeld werden met fludrocortisone-acetaat. Een aanvangsdosis van 1,5 – 2,2 mg/kg SC werd gegeven met een vast doseringsinterval van 28 dagen in de meeste gevallen. Ter supplementatie van de glucocorticoïden werd aan de behandeling telkens prednisolone toegevoegd. Er werden geen bijwerkingen gezien die aan desoxycorticosterone-pivalaat konden worden toegeschreven en de eigenaren van de honden waren allen tevreden over de behandeling met desoxycorticosteronepivalaat en prednisolone.

The paper theoretically and experimentally investigates the fundamental limitations imposed by spin (or atomic) quantum projection noise on the sensitivity of optical quantum sensors based on thermal atoms (this class of devices includes frequency standards, magnetometers, and gyroscopes using optical detection of electron paramagnetic resonance). The effect of increasing the rms amplitude of the projection noise in the magnetometric scheme under the influence of strong optical pumping is demonstrated, its explanation is proposed and experimentally tested - it is shown that in a wide range of pump intensities this effect is explained by the invariance of the projection noise integral power with respect to the magnetic resonance line width. An experimental study of the parameters of projection noise in a magnetometric quantum sensor was carried out, recommendations were given for optimizing the sensor parameters.

The heat transfer in a water droplet with eosin and ablative silver nanoparticles under laser visible stationary (λ = 532 nm) and infrared pulsed (λ = 10.6 μm) exposure (Vis-IR double laser exposure) in the temperature range from 0.2 to 50 ° C was studied. It was found that after Vis-IR exposure, the vibrational system of triplet states of dye molecules in the droplet was excited with the generation of thermoluminescence, the decay kinetics of which reflects the new distribution of the electron-vibrational modes in the fluorescence spectrum of dye molecules. For small droplet sizes with silver nanoparticles (d <1.0 mm) after infrared exposure (τ = 50 ms), a thermal front was generated with thermoluminescence radiation and it was travelling at a speed of 0.85 cm / s in an aqueous medium. The simulation study of heat transfer processes in a drop during the formation of a heat wave was carried out.

Theoretical study of the radiated FEL power and bunching is conducted in single-pass free electron laser (FEL) with repetitive shift of the photon pulse with respect to the electron bunch in between the sections of the undulator with field harmonics. Using the analytical calculations, the asymmetric elliptic and planar undulator fields are identified for the undulators to be able to reduce the fundamental tone and enhance the harmonic radiation. This effect is amplified by the phase shift kπ/n, k=2,4,6… of the electrons and photons between the undulator sections. This allows n-th FEL harmonic reach its peak power beyond the fundamental saturation FEL length. It is not possible to achieve in a common FEL due to fast increase of the energy spread, induced by the fundamental tone along FEL and its early saturation. The phenomenological model of the FEL is used for the analysis of the bunching coefficients and harmonic powers evolution in the FEL. The model describes the debunching between the undulator sections, where the phase shift is imposed, and accounts for the higher sensitivity to losses of the electron-photon interaction at high harmonic wavelengths. The losses are due to the beam energy spread and emittance, deviation off the axis, diffraction etc. Explicit expressions for the Bessel coefficients of the planar and elliptic undulators with field harmonics are obtained and analyzed. The combination of the undulator field harmonics is identified, which reduces the fundamental tone and enhances the 3rd and 5th UR harmonics as compared with the radiation from a planar undulator. We propose the use of these undulators in a FEL with the electron-photon phase shift, which increases high harmonic powers in X-ray band by ~100 times with respect to common FELs.

Results of numerical simulation of the supersonic gas flow past a fin-body mounted on the flat plate with developing laminar boundary layer are presented. The calculations cover flow cases with the freestream Mach number of 6.7 and two different Reynolds numbers: Re=12500, 15600. The structure of the horseshoe vortices arising in the body leading-edge region is analyzed. It has been revealed that for both the Reynolds numbers there exist two stable solutions, which correspond to different metastable states of the flow. The solutions differ in the number of the vortices forming in the separation region, as well as in the separation region length. In the smaller Reynolds number case, both solutions are steady-state, whereas in case of the larger Re value, one of the solutions remains steady-state, and the other one becomes quasi-periodic.

Electroluminescence spectra and the open circuit voltage vs photogenerated current characteristics for GaAs solar cells with different number of rows (r) of In0.4Ga0.6As quantum objects have been studied. For all samples with quantum objects, saturation current (J0), quantum object energy gap ), and the open circuit voltage drop (ΔVoc) have been obtained. A model is proposed that adequately describes the J0 – r and ΔVoс – r dependences. The model parameters have been found, including the current invariant Jz=1.4∙105 A/cm2, which uniquely connects the solar cell saturation current and a quantum object energy gap.

A new method is proposed for wave drag reducing of a supercritical airfoil at transonic speeds, which is associated with the organization of a microwave section in a local supersonic zone on the upper surface. Simultaneously with optical studies, aerodynamic loads acting on a model were obtained. It is experimentally established that the proposed approach leads to the formation of a system of weak compression waves, to consecutive deceleration of the supersonic flow, to decrease of the Mach number in front of the shock wave, and, as a consequence, to weakening of its intensity and to reducing of the airfoil wave drag

Mobile Health Apps for Improvement of Tuberculosis Treatment: Descriptive Review
Authors: Keutzer Lina , Wicha Sebastian G , Simonsson Ulrika SH
Published: April 2020

Background

Mobile health (mHealth) is a rapidly emerging market, which has been implemented in a variety of different disease areas. Tuberculosis remains one of the most common causes of death from an infectious disease worldwide, and mHealth apps offer an important contribution to the improvement of tuberculosis treatment. In particular, apps facilitating dose individualization, adherence monitoring, or provision of information and education about the disease can be powerful tools to prevent the development of drug-resistant tuberculosis or disease relapse.

Objective

The aim of this review was to identify, describe, and categorize mobile and Web-based apps related to tuberculosis that are currently available.

Methods

PubMed, Google Play Store, Apple Store, Amazon, and Google were searched between February and July 2019 using a combination of 20 keywords. Apps were included in the analysis if they focused on tuberculosis, and were excluded if they were related to other disease areas or if they were games unrelated to tuberculosis. All apps matching the inclusion criteria were classified into the following five categories: adherence monitoring, individualized dosing, eLearning/information, diagnosis, and others. The included apps were then summarized and described based on publicly available information using 12 characteristics.

Results

Fifty-five mHealth apps met the inclusion criteria and were included in this analysis. Of the 55 apps, 8 (15%) were intended to monitor patients’ adherence, 6 (11%) were designed for dosage adjustment, 29 (53%) were designed for eLearning/information, 3 (6%) were focused on tuberculosis diagnosis, and 9 (16%) were related to other purposes.

Conclusions

The number of mHealth apps related to tuberculosis has increased during the past 3 years. Although some of the discovered apps seem promising, many were found to contain errors or provided harmful or wrong information. Moreover, the majority of mHealth apps currently on the market are focused on making information about tuberculosis available (29/55, 53%). Thus, this review highlights a need for new, high-quality mHealth apps supporting tuberculosis treatment, especially those supporting individualized optimized treatment through model-informed precision dosing and video observed treatment.
Analyzing the Adherence of a Mobile App in a Smoke-Quitting Program (Preprint)
Authors: Pifarre Marc , Vilaplana Jordi , Solsona Francesc , Abella Francesc , Alves Rui , Rius Josep
Published: April 2020

BACKGROUND

Many mobile apps have been made to quit smoking. Many do not have the support of specialists, and often are apps for self-guidance.
There is no record of any study looking at the apps' adherence to patient treatments from hospitals, and therefore it is not known for sure if they serve to increase the adherence of treatments.

OBJECTIVE

Analyzing and evaluating the adherence of using a mobile app (TControl) on a smoking cessation program.

METHODS

TControl, an app to follow up and assist smoke-free patients. 197 patients to measure the effectiveness of the app for decreasing the number of relapses were analysed.

RESULTS

Actually, the difference between those using TControl is the number of relapses (7.7%), which is much lower than among those not using it (33.9%), and which could retain considerably more patients on the program than the conventional treatment.

CONCLUSIONS

TControl increased adherence in a smoke-quitting program. However, no correlation between adherence and success was found.

Authors: Laestadius Linnea , Wang Yang , Ben Taleb Ziyad , Kalan Mohammad Ebrahimi , Cho Young , Manganello Jennifer
Published: April 2020

BACKGROUND

The rapid global spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has compelled national governments to issue guidance on the use of face masks for members of the general public. To date, no work has assessed how this guidance differs across governments.

OBJECTIVE

This study seeks to contribute to a rational and consistent global response to infectious disease by determining how guidelines differ across nations and regions.

METHODS

A content analysis of health agency mask guidelines on agency websites was performed in late March 2020 among 25 countries and regions with large numbers of COVID-19 cases. Countries and regions were assigned across the coding team by language proficiency, with Google Translate used as needed. When available, both the original and English language version of guidance were reviewed.

RESULTS

All examined countries and regions had some form of guidance online, although detail and clarity differed. Although 9 countries and regions recommended surgical, medical, or unspecified masks in public and poorly ventilated places, 16 recommended against people wearing masks in public. There were 2 countries that explicitly recommended against fabric masks. In addition, 12 failed to outline the minimum basic World Health Organization guidance for masks.

CONCLUSIONS

Online guidelines for face mask use to prevent COVID-19 in the general public are currently inconsistent across nations and regions, and have been changing often. Efforts to create greater standardization and clarity should be explored in light of the status of COVID-19 as a global pandemic.
