Authors: Al-khateeb Tala A. , Mahdi Ayat H.
Published: February 2020

Introduction:

Pollution with oil products considered one of the most environmental problems that need to be treated significantly.Artificial polluted mixtures of pollutants and soil had been bio-treated via aerated bioreactor.

Methods:

Mixtures of used lubricating oil, crude oil and petroleum sludge had been mixed individually with soil in pre-determined ratio and treated via the bioreactor. The living microorganisms existed in soil were reinforced with enzymatic accelerating reagent to examine their activity in relatively cold ambient temperature.

Results and Conclusion:

Percentage of removal for the total organic hydrocarbons was recorded to be 74.4 %, 77.7 % and 68.2 % at the end of the fifth week of treatment of the three studied mixtures, respectively. This gives a significant indication of the ability of the used reagent combined with existing microorganisms to dissolute heavy hydrocarbon substances contaminates the soil in extreme ambient conditions.

Preferences for Sun Protection With a Self-Monitoring App: Protocol of a Discrete Choice Experiment Study
Authors: Nittas Vasileios , Mütsch Margot , Puhan Milo Alan
Published: February 2020

Background

The incidence of sun-exposure-related skin conditions, such as melanoma, is a gradually increasing and largely preventable public health problem. Simultaneously, the availability of mobile apps that enable the self-monitoring of health behavior and outcomes is ever increasing. Inevitably, recent years have seen an emerging volume of electronic patient-generated health data (PGHD), as well as their targeted application across primary prevention areas, including sun protection and skin health. Despite their preventive potential, the actual impact of these apps relies on the engagement of health care consumers, who are primarily responsible for recording, sharing, and using their PGHD. Exploring preferences is a key step toward facilitating consumer engagement and ultimately realizing their potential.

Objective

This paper describes an ongoing research project that aims to elicit the preferences of health care consumers for sun protection via app-based self-monitoring.

Methods

A discrete choice experiment (DCE) will be conducted to explore how healthy consumers choose between two alternative preventive self-monitoring apps. DCE development and attribute selection were built on extensive qualitative work, consisting of the secondary use of a previously conducted scoping review, a rapid review of reviews, 13 expert interviews, and 12 health care consumer interviews, the results of which are reported in this paper. Following D-optimality criteria, a fractional factorial survey design was generated. The final DCE will be administered in the waiting room of a travel clinic, targeting a sample of 200 participants. Choice data will be analyzed with conditional logit and multinomial logit models, accounting for individual participant characteristics.

Results

An ethics approval was waived by the Ethics Committee Zurich. The study started in September 2019 and estimated data collection and completion is set for January 2020. Five two-level attributes have been selected for inclusion in the DCE, addressing (1) data generation methods, (2) privacy control, (3) data sharing with general practitioner, (4) reminder timing, and (5) costs. Data synthesis, analysis, and reporting are planned for January and February 2020. Results are expected to be submitted for publication by February 2020.

Conclusions

Our results will target technology developers, health care providers, and policy makers, potentially offering some guidance on how to design or use sun-protection-focused self-monitoring apps in ways that are responsive to consumer preferences. Preferences are ultimately linked to engagement and motivation, which are key elements for the uptake and success of digital health. Our findings will inform the design of person-centered apps, while also inspiring future preference-eliciting research in the field of emerging and complex eHealth services.

Formulation of Composite Flour with Antioxidant from Goroho Plantain Flour (Musa Acuminafe, sp) and Yellow Pumpkin Flour (Cucurbita moschata) and Its Application on Biscuit Making
Authors: Pasanda Imanuel Medy , Suryanto Edi , Djarkasi Gregoria
Published: February 2020

Locally grown crops with phytochemical antioxidant content i.e. goroho plantain and yellow pumpkin were used to develop composite flour. Mixture experiment with simplex lattice design was used for formulation to study the effect of blending goroho plantain flour (GF) with yellow pumpkin flour (PF) on phytochemical content and antioxidant capacity of developed composite flours. Responses measured including phytochemical content (total phenolic and carotenoid), antioxidant capacity (DPPH assay, FRAP assay, phosphomolybdenum assay, and reducing power assay), colour values of flours, proximate components, and sensory quality of biscuits made from composite flours. The results showed that increase in proportion of PF improved the phytochemical content, antioxidant capacity, and proximate components with the exception of carbohydrates. However, substitution of GF with PF reduced sensory ratings for all the sensory attributes of biscuits developed from composite flours. Among biscuits made from composite flours, sensory ratings for aroma, colour, texture, and taste were not statistically different (p>0.05). PF can be used as fortification material to improve the phytochemical antioxidant content in composite flours prepared from GF and PF, or flours from other locally grown plants.

Strategic Approaches to SoEL Inquiry Within and Across Disciplines: Twenty-year Impact of an International Faculty Development Program in Diverse University Contexts
Authors: Webb Andrea S. , Hubball Harry T. , Clarke Anthony , Ellis Simon
Published: February 2020

Educational leaders on university campuses around the world are increasingly required to account for the effectiveness, efficiency and quality of their undergraduate and graduate degree programs. The S Scholarship of Educational Leadership (SoEL) in higher education is a distinctive form of strategic inquiry for educational leaders with an explicit transformational agenda of educational practices within and across the disciplines in diverse university contexts. This paper examines complex institutional challenges and strategic approaches to SoEL inquiry. In an international faculty development context, data suggests that educational leaders from a variety of disciplines face significant challenges when undertaking SoEL inquiry. Strategic institutional supports and customised professional development are key to facilitating SoEL inquiry in higher education. Further, SoEL is inherently situated, socially mediated, and responsive to the professional learning needs and circumstances of educational leaders within and across the disciplines in diverse university contexts.

Study of preparatory activities on using BIM-technologies in the medical enterprise design
Authors: Karakozova Irina V. , Malykha Galina G. , Pavlov Alexander S. , Panin Andrey S. , Tesler Nadezhda D.
Published: February 2020

Introduction. When designing buildings and installations, Building Information Modeling (BIM) is spread more and more widely. The adoption of national and international standards and classifications is of great importance for the implementation of information technology. Application of the BIM-technologies for constructing public buildings, in the first turn, medical ones, seems to be very promising. The paper discusses the problems of developing indigenous parametric blocks (families) and preparatory activities in using the BIM-technology.

Materials and methods. One of the information technology tasks is to develop equipment specifications and transfer them through the technological chain of the construction facility life cycle. The creation and application of classifiers are necessary to prepare for using the BIM-technologies.

Results. A project of an academic health science centre with an extensive equipment range is analysed. The project of a modern medical building contains a description of several hundreds of specific medical equipment types. The specifications should contain information, including denominations and quantities of the equipment units, data on overall dimensions and weights of the units, connection interfaces to the power supply, water supply, water drainage. When creating parametric blocks, the international classifiers Uniclass-2015 and OmniClass are often used. However, they do not cover the necessary equipment range and contradict the domestic practice of purchasing equipment and services for state demand.

Conclusions. The cost of preparing for the design process as creating parametric blocks can make a total of tens or hundreds of man-days that should be taken into account when planning design activities. In terms of procurement for state and municipal demand, it is necessary to make design specifications following the available range of medical equipment.
Impact of horizontal loads on the work of stud bolts in combined floor slabs
Authors: Fattakhova Alsou I.
Published: February 2020

Introduction. Combined slabs are often applied in civil buildings. Such methods of slab calculation are described in detail in internal and international normative documents. The work of the slabs under vertical loads is studied minutely. However, additional shear forces in stud bolts from horizontal load are not considered in domestic design practice. The usage of profiled sheeting as the main reinforcement limits the application of international foreign methods is limited by. Besides that, the profiled sheeting types used abroad differ from domestic ones.

Materials and methods. The paper studies the horizontal load impact on the flexible anchors in combined slabs using profiled sheeting. The article considered an example of an existing building structure modelled using a LIRA-SAPR software system.

Results. The results of numerical experiments were described in terms of wind load and temperature effect on the structure. The values of stud bolt forces from the applied loads were obtained for various working conditions. Further, these forces were compared with the ones from the vertical loads and bearing capacity of a single stud bolt. The bearing capacity determining issue was separately considered according to domestic and foreign design standards as well as stud manufacturers’ regulatory documents. As a result, different bearing capacity values were obtained. Possible reasons for the large discrepancy of the values are given based on calculation formulae taken from documents for determining a load that a single bolt is capable of bearing.

Conclusions. A necessity of further studying the issue of providing shear rigidity of stud bolts under horizontal loads was revealed. The distribution of forces in the flexible anchors is affected by the arrangement of floor beams and ties.
Statistical and spatial variability of climate data in the Mareb-Gash river basin in Eritrea
Authors: Ghebrehiwot Anghesom A. , Kozlov Dmitriy V.
Published: February 2020

Introduction. Global reanalysis products are extensively used for hydrologic applications in sparse data regions. The establishment of inputs for hydrologic modelling from such global reanalysis requires prior checking and analyses.

Materials and methods. The present study attempts to utilize Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) datasets for the Mereb-Gash river basin in Eritrea, to prepare the input data for forthcoming hydrological modelling studies. The activities include statistical analyses, computation of PET, and drought indices using different methods so as to understand basin characteristics through the use of geospatial and geostatistical tools.

Results. The results of statistical analyses indicated that there was predominantly a significant monotonic trend in the majority of the data. Precipitation (P) and relative humidity tend to decrease, whereas temperature (T) and potential evapotranspiration (PET) tend to increase. Among the PET estimation methods, the Thornthwaite method gave inconsistent results as compared to Hargreaves and Penman-Monteith methods, the former being highly dependent on the elevation of the station. In most cases, it was found that Penman-Monteith produced the highest PET values.

Conclusions. Besides, Standardized Precipitation and Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) analyses in the basin indicate persistent dry conditions over the period 2000–2013 and predominantly humid conditions over the period 1979–2000. The study concluded that the presence of a significant trend in most of the climatic variables and persistent drought conditions in recent years were found to be congruent with global and regional climatic studies that are highly likely linked to human and climate influence on the environment.

Why Are We Stuck? Therapeutic Inertia in Diabetes Education
Authors: Cox Carla , Isaacs Diana
Published: February 2020

Diabetes educators can be challenged by therapeutic inertia, as has been documented with other health care providers. There are many contributing factors related to the educators themselves, their patients, and the health care system in which they operate. To address this potentially significant barrier to quality patient care, diabetes educators can adopt numerous strategies to maximize their impact and address the factors contributing to therapeutic inertia in their practices.
Therapeutic Inertia: Still a Long Way to Go That Cannot Be Postponed
Authors: Mata-Cases Manel , Franch-Nadal Josep , Gratacòs Mònica , Mauricio Dídac
Published: February 2020

In the context of type 2 diabetes, the definition of therapeutic inertia should include the failure not only to intensify therapy, but also to deintensify treatment when appropriate and should be distinguished from appropriate inaction in cases justified by particular circumstances. Therapy should be intensified when glycemic control deteriorates to prevent long periods of hyperglycemia, which increase the risk of complications. Strategic plans to overcome therapeutic inertia must include actions focused on patients, prescribers, health systems, and payers. Therapeutic inertia affects the management of glycemia, hypertension, and lipid disorders, all of which increase the risk for cardiovascular diseases. Thus, multifactorial interventions that act on additional therapeutic goals beyond glycemia are needed.
A Behavioral Perspective of Therapeutic Inertia: A Look at the Transition to Insulin Therapy
Authors: Guzman Susan J.
Published: February 2020

From a behavioral perspective, therapeutic inertia can happen when obstacles to changing a diabetes treatment plan outweigh perceived benefits. There is a complex interaction of important treatment-related obstacles for people with diabetes (PWD), their treating health care professional (HCP), and the clinical setting in which they interact. Tipping the scales toward more effective action involve strategies that increase perceptions of the benefits of treatment intensification while addressing important obstacles so that treatment changes are seen by both PWD and HCPs as worthwhile and achievable.

Protection of the marine environment within the framework of international law is actually an accumulation of The Principle of National Sovereignity and The Freedom of High Sea. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) states that "a right on the part of an astat threatened with the environmental injury from sources beyond its territorial jurisdiction, at least where those sources are located on the high seas, to take reasonable action to prevent or abate that injury ". The general principle of good neighbor liness can be found in international customary law as well as in Article 74 of the UN Charter. This principle is reflected in several international treaties and is supported by the country's main practices in dangerous and emergency activities. Cooperation is contained in the 24th Principle of the Stockholm Declaration and the 27th Principle of the Rio Declaration which states that countries must cooperate in the principles of good faith and the spirit of partnership as efforts to protect the environment. Keywords: protection of the marine environment, principles of good faith, International Maritime Organization (IMO)

На основании оценок и мнений представителей цифрового поколения, выявленных в результате проведения серии полевых исследований в рамках исследовательского проекта, посвященного изучению сетевой культуры поколения Z, описывается содержательное наполнение комплекса следующих лингвистических, коммуникативных и прагматических компетенций, образующих социально-сетевую цифровую грамотность: лингвистической компетенции по продуцированию разножанрового социально-сетевого контента и эффективной обратной связи; коммуникативной компетенции по организации контекстов социально-сетевой коммуникации с различными аудиториями пользователей; практиконормативной компетенции по соблюдению этических норм и требований этикета и поддержанию бесконфликтного социально-сетевого общения; компетенции социальносетевой самопрезентации.

The key approaches to the conceptualization of the concept of digital literacy in foreign and Russian research discourse are considered. Along with the classical interpretation of P. Gilster of digital literacy as the understanding and use of information using a computer, the author analyzes functionalistic and cognitive approaches to the interpretation of digital literacy. There is a shortage of approaches to the analysis of competencies associated with effective communication and adaptation to the social network communication culture of youth. New conceptualization proposed social and network digital literacy as an element of network digital culture and digital literacy of generation Z. Based on the estimates and opinions of representatives of the digital generation identified as a result of a series of field studies in the framework of a research project devoted to the study of the network culture of generation Z, the content of the following complex is revealed, communicative and pragmatic competencies that form social network digital literacy: linguistic competency in the production of multi-genre social network content and effective feedback; communicative competencies in organizing contexts of social network communication with various user audiences; practical and normative competencies to comply with ethical standards and etiquette requirements and to maintain conflict-free social network communication; the competencies of social network self-presentation. It is concluded that a discussion of the need to educate and acquire competencies related to adaptation to generation Z network communication culture can serve as a key to bridging the digital divide between generations.

Увеличение числа детей с общим недоразвитием речи и повышение современных требований ФГОС к эффективности обучения грамоте позволяют актуализировать проблему подготовки к обучению чтению дошкольников с общим недоразвитием речи. Предложен комплексный подход к процессу формирования функционального базиса чтения у дошкольников с общим недоразвитием речи, который основан на использовании полисенсорного подхода.

The increase in the number of children with general speech underdevelopment and the increase in the current requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard to the effectiveness of literacy training make it possible to actualize the problem of preparing preschoolers with general speech underdevelopment to learn reading. The article proposes a comprehensive approach to the process of forming the functional basis of reading in preschoolers with general underdevelopment of speech, which is based on the use of a polysensory approach. The influence of the use of the polysensory approach in the formation of the functional basis of reading in preschoolers with General underdevelopment of speech is investigated. The significance of the study is to supplement the theoretical ideas about the originality of speech and non-speech processes of teaching reading to children with general underdevelopment of speech. The expediency of an alternative approach to the training of preschool children with general underdevelopment of speech, including a polysensory approach, is substantiated. The speech therapy program is based on the polysensory approach in the formation of the functional basis of reading in preschool children with general underdevelopment of speech, using all units of reading and including work on the development of attention, visual perception, memory, phonemic hearing and speech.

Published: February 2020

Introduction: Spina bifida is a spine malformation that appears as an incomplete closure of the spine during development. Most frequently it involves lumbosacral vertebrae. There are two types of spina bifida: spina bifida aperta and spina bifida occulta. In most of the cases spina bifida occulta is asymptomatic, and it is identified by accident.

Objectives: the aim of this study was to correlate localization of spina bifida occulta with age and sex of the patients.

Materials and methods: Between July 2017 and January 2019 there have been 108 patients diagnosed with spina bifida occulta at the Radiology Department of Dora Medicals Tîrgu Mureș. The diagnoses were based on thoracolumbar spine x-ray, pelvic x-ray and chest x-ray studies requested by specialist physicians. Radiologic diagnosis was followed by data processing and statistical analysis.

Results: In 81% of the cases the lesion was localized to vertebra S1, and in 15% to vertebra L5; we identified other five cases of rare localizations: C7- T1- T2, T1, T2, S2. This lesion was diagnosed most frequently at ages from 11 to 15 years (44.4%). Spina bifida localized to L5 was more frequent in males (11/16, 68.7%). Cases localized to S1 were more frequent in females (60/88, 68.1%). All spina bifida cases in females localized to vertebra L5 were diagnosed before 20 years of age.

Conclusions: Our results partially correspond to those reported in other published studies.

Diet has a major role in the treatment of acute diarrhea in children, along with a minimal drug therapy, but not necessarily using antimicrobials. Children can successfully pas a diarrheal episode with diet and symptomatic treatment.

It is important to know how to properly choose foods to introduce in ill children diet. There is a lack of statistical data in our region regarding dietary treatment in child diarrhea. This study was realized by completing a questionnaire regrading nutritional management in children with diarrhea. 110 persons from Dobrogea region completed this questionnaire. We analyzes demographic and clinical issues, people preferences in choosing different foods appropriate to this pathology and minimal knowledge about medication.

Our results evidenced that general population knowledges regarding nutritional management of acute diarrheal disease in children and infants are appreciable. Foods like rice, toast, applesauce/baked apple, mint/figs/bilberry leaves teas, vegetables soup, bananas were found among people preferences, proving appropriate information. Antimicrobial drugs misusage is not reported, 83 out of 110 people avoiding them.
Live-Ticker: Zu Der Neuen Multimodal-Hypertextuellen Form Der Live-Berichterstattung
Authors: Smułczyński Michał
Published: February 2020

The live broadcast of different, socially important events is nowadays no longer reserved only for radio and television. The live-ticker, a result of various media convergence processes, is a multimodal and interactive set of institutional reports, journalists’ and politicians’ opinions, pictures, short films and social media posts, that 24/7 provides the most up-to-date information on a specific topic. The article is an investigation into the media genre live-ticker with a focus on its multimodal structure, the language-image relations, as well as aspects of hypertextuality. Finally, I want to show what the live ticker differs from similar forms of online broadcasting. The corpus are three Danish live-tickers that provided the most detailed report on the trial of the Danish entrepreneur and designer Peter Madsen: bt.dk, ekstrabladet.dk and jyllands-posten.dk. Madsen murdered in 2017 a Swedish journalist Kim Wall, for which he was sentenced in April 2018 to life imprisonment.

Tourism statistic data can is an important source for measuring touristic patterns. As this area became more and more dynamic with the globalisation process, business owners, business analysts, policy makers as well as researchers are highly interested in having accurate, reliable and diverse data on tourism in order to perform analysis. Seasonal adjustment presents a real challenge for all researchers that operate with data sources from tourism sector. Usage of time series presents both opportunities and may contribute to improvement of forecasting touristic specifics relaying on demand and supply side of seasonality phenomenon. However, seasonally adjusted data is viewed as major challenge for businesses operating in the touristic sector. The present research focuses on a methodology that includes monthly tourist data arrivals in Romania. The seasonal adjustment process is performed with JDemetra+, both considering and excluding calendar effect. JDemetra+ is the software officially recommended by Eurostat for seasonal adjustment, being tested extensively by many experts in the field, from various organisations. The seasonal adjustment process pointed out promising and qualitative results, as no Easter and trading days effect were present, suggesting effect of calendar omission from the process. Our obtained results showed up significantly better results for the 5 years series span. The similarities for TRAMO-SEATS and X13 obtained results indicate that in order to minimise sensitivity and choose correctly between the two packages, further revisions may be considered. This paper provides an excellent starting point for further research aimed at improving data on tourism. The methodology tested in this research can be further improved and applied on other data regarding tourism.
