Published: April 2021

Potentially inappropriate prescriptions of antipsychotics for patients with dementia Background/objectives:Dementias are neurodegenerative and progressive diseases of the central nervous system. The objective of this study was to determine the frequency of potentially inappropriate prescriptions of antipsychotics in a group of patients diagnosed with dementia in Colombia. Design: A cross-sectional study. Setting: A population database for drug dispensing of outpatients in Colombia. Participants: All patients with a diagnosis of dementia in the database. Measurements: Potentially inappropriate prescriptions of antidementia drugs, antipsychotics agents were identified. Descriptive statistics and bivariate and multivariate analyses were performed. Results: A total of 11372 patients with dementia were identified; 66.6% were women, and the mean age was 80.5 ± 9.6 years. Alzheimer's disease was the most frequent diagnosis (76.6%). A total of 69.0% of patients received antidementia drugs. A total of 37.1% of patients received some antipsychotic, especially atypical antipsychotics (31.0%). Increased age, being treated with memantine, simultaneously presenting with anxiety, depression, and psychotic disorders, and concomitantly receiving anticonvulsants, bronchodilators and benzodiazepines were associated with a greater probability of being prescribed antipsychotics. Conclusions: More than one-third of patients with dementia received antipsychotic prescriptions, which are considered potentially inappropriate because they can worsen cognitive decline and favor the occurrence of adverse events.
Embedding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander LGBTIQ+ Issues in Primary Initial Teacher Education Programs
Authors: Rhodes David , Byrne Matt
Published: April 2021

Existing research has explored inclusion in education, however, issues related to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander LGBTIQ+ young people, with some notable exceptions, have, until recently, seldom been included in any meaningful academic discussion. Issues of youth race, gender and sexuality have been interrogated as discrete issues. This small but growing body of research demonstrates the potential impacts of intersectional disadvantages experienced by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander LGBTIQ+ young people in Australia (Uink, Liddelow-Hunt, Daglas, & Ducasse, 2020). This article seeks to explore the existing research and advocate for the embedding of a critical pedagogy of care in primary Initial Teacher Education (ITE) curricula, inclusive of diversity of race, ethnicity, socio-economic-status, gender and sexuality. Employing intersectionality theory, this research will examine the specific disadvantages that arise as the result of occupying multiple minority demographic categories, which are relational, complex and shifting, rather than fixed and independent. Primary educators are well positioned to name disadvantage, racism and heterosexism, make them visible and, through culturally responsive pedagogical approaches and inclusive curricula, challenge the status quo. To ensure that learning and teaching moves beyond stereotypes, primary curricula should be representative of all students and present alternate ways of being human in culturally appropriate, positive ways, to the benefit of all students. ITE programs provide the ideal arena to equip teachers with the knowledge and competency to respond to the needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander LGBTIQ+ young people.

Implementation of strategies to counteract the consequences of the pandemic in the tourism sector
Authors: I. Yu. Shvets
Published: April 2021

The purpose of the article is to analyze the implementation of strategies to mitigate the socio-economic impact of Covid-19 and restore the tourism sector. Estimates at the national level are quite complex and reflect the scale of the impact on tourism, as well as the challenges associated with predicting a rapidly changing and uncertain situation. Quantifying the current and future impacts of the crisis on tourism is challenging, as the crisis has exposed weaknesses in tourism statistical information systems, including the lack of reliable, comparable and timely data to support political and business decisions. A number of forecasts presented in the spring and summer of 2020 did not come true. Forecasting the impact of the pandemic on the tourism economy is faced with a high degree of uncertainty, a rapidly changing epidemiological situation at the level of national states and regions. The article analyzes the implementation of the main strategies recommended by the UNWTO to overcome the consequences of the pandemic: 1) crisis management and mitigation; 2) providing incentives and accelerating recovery; and 3) preparing for tomorrow and developing tactics to overcome the crisis in the tourism sector using the example of the countries analyzed. The recovery of tourism will depend on the interrelated effects of the economic crisis and the health crisis on overcoming the pandemic, the influence of supply and demand factors. The peculiarity of the current crisis lies in the global nature of its scale, duration, continuing uncertainty and the interconnectedness of economic, social and medical factors of influence.

Published: April 2021

Opinion Mining or Sentiment Analysis is a task in the processing of natural language to find the customers' mood about buying a specific product or subject. It involves developing a framework in many online shopping sites to gather and review opinions about the product made. Opinion mining is a sub-field of the mining of web content. Data mining is a branch of Web content mining. Opinions are statements that reflect the opinion or sentiment of individuals. Opinion on objects or events is also given in this statement. For any person, reviewing consumer review is more relevant in making the right buying product and organization decision. CS is the best search algorithm inspired by cuckoos' breeding behavior. It provides a short overview of the nature-inspired algorithm's applications. The CS algorithm is used in various fields, such as business, image processing, wireless sensor networks, flood forecasting, document clustering, speaker recognition, distributed system shortest path, health sector, job scheduling. In terms of better efficiency and less processing time, the Cuckoo algorithm performs various nature-inspired algorithms. Therefore, this research paper proposes a hybrid feature selection which is a combination of cuckoo search and mRMR (Minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance) algorithm. Due to the subjective nature of social media reviews, hybrid feature selection technique outperforms the traditional technique. The performance factors like f-measure, recall, precision, and accuracy tested on Amazon dataset using Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier.

Primary Layout Of The Earliest Shophouses In The Small Towns (1880s - 1930s) – A Case Study In Perak
Authors: Bin Mamat Mohd Jaki
Published: April 2021

The layout of the shophouse combined two main functions, as a residence and commercial building.  The living and business activities were main influences on how these spaces were designed in the shophouse that first made its appearance in the small towns and surrounding areas in the early 19th and 20th centuries.  In Malaysia, in particular Perak, these shophouses are still intact and have enabled the opportunity to identify and record the layout features of interior space for this study.  From interviews and measured drawing of the early shophouses in 16 small towns in Perak, a complete set of layout plans were produced and analysed.  This study has found that the domestic (or family) space was given prominence in terms of size; thus, the lifestyle was a determining factor in the building's layout for interior space. Yet, the importance of business sets its relevant space at the forefront where customers are received.

Authors: Dr. Harikiran Jonnadula Sitanaboina S L Parvathi,
Published: April 2021

The spatial and temporal resolution is dramatically increased due to the quick development of medical imaging technology, which in turn increases the size of clinical imaging data. Typically, it is very challenging to do small blob segmentation as of Medical Images (MI) but it encompasses so many vital applications. Some examples are labelling cell, lesion, along with glomeruli aimed at disease diagnosis. Though various detectors were suggested by the prevailing method for this type of issue, they mostly used 2D detectors, which may render less detection accuracy. To trounce this, the system has developed an efficient small Blob Detection (BD)as well as classification in 3D Magnetics Resonance Imaging (MRI) human kidney images utilizingImproved Mini Batch K-Means (IMBKM)and Enhanced Deep Convolutionals Neural Network (EDCNN) classifier. To segment the blob portions,the image is first ameliorated via Enhanced Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (ECLAHE) followed by the IMBKM algorithm. After that, to determine the segmentation performance, the pixels’ percentage in the detected blob portion is gauged. In addition, statistical, GLCM, together with shape features are extracted as of the segmented blob potions. Lastly, the EDCNN takes care of the classification, which classifies '4' classes, say, Normal, Glomerulonephritis, Stone, and Pyelonephritis. The experimental outcomes exhibit that IMBKM and EDCNN have the potential to automatically detect blobs and classify the blobs efficiently than the top-notch methods.

An Analysis of the Appropriate Number of Workers in Elderly Care Hospital by Pathfinder in Korea
Authors: Ha-Sung Kong Hong-Sang Lee,
Published: April 2021

: This study estimated the appropriate number of employees that are able to evacuate all occupants during the day time and nighttime through an evacuation simulation. During the daytime, 200 patients and 44 workers evacuated after 416 se This result showed that the number of workers was greater than the standard number of daytime worker placements because this record was faster than the Korean Fire Department’s average arrival time of 430 seconds. Therefore, the appropriate number of workers during the daytime for all occupants to escape within the Korean Fire Department’s average arrival time of 430 seconds is 30 persons, 25 persons for the standard evacuation time of 480 seconds, and 20 persons for the average time of flashover of 540 seconds. During the nighttime, a total of 205 people, including 200 patients and 5 workers, needed 1,475 seconds to evacuate. As this time exceeds the average time of flashover, it was shown that the number of workers was fewer than the standard number of nighttime worker placements. Therefore, the appropriate number of workers at nighttime is 35 persons for 430 seconds, 30 persons for 480 seconds, and 25 persons for 540 seconds
Analysis of the Impact of Decreasing the Width of Direct Stairs in Apartments on RSET for All Occupants in Korea
Authors: Ha-Sung Kong Sang Im Lee,
Published: April 2021

This study analyzed the RSETs for 11-story or less apartments where the building-related laws were not retroactively applied, with consideration of the decrease of direct stairs width due to obstacles piled up on the direct stairs. The RSET was shown to be 631.8 seconds when the width of the direct stairs was 1,260mm. The evacuation time exceeded 5 minutes even when there were no obstacles due to the delayed evacuation start time. The risk increased when the width of the direct stairs was decreased to 960mm, 760mm, and 560mm because of obstacles, and the RSETs were 768.8 seconds, 803.3 seconds, and 834.4 seconds respectively. There are various ways to eliminate the occurrence of obstacles on direct stairs which increase RSET : First, it is necessary to remove the exception that permits the placement of obstacles on the stairs. Second, penalties for the placement of obstacles on the direct stairs should be enforced as written. Third, the fire safety managers need the authority to act on behalf of the fire officials. Lastly, it is necessary to encourage residents to report instances of obstacle accumulation. Henceforth, more research is needed on the spread speed of smoke and toxic gases depending on whether fire doors are installed through fire simulation.

Published: April 2021

Purpose and objectives: analysis of legal regulation of cryptocurrency mining in the Russian Federation and abroad, identification of problems and gaps in this area and development of proposals aimed at their resolution. Scientific significance: the article reveals the current state and established doctrinal approaches to the legal regulation of cryptocurrency mining in Russia. For the first time, the necessity of strengthening and developing state regulation of mining is substantiated. The main attention in the article is paid to the system of legal regulation of the process of creating cryptocurrencies in the territory of the Russian Federation, taking into account the law of the Eurasian Economic Union. Methods: a dialectical approach to the cognition of social phenomena, allowing them to be analyzed in their historical development and functioning in the context of a set of objective and subjective factors, which determined the choice of the following research methods: formal logical, comparative legal, sociological, which allowed the author to ensure the reliability and validity of the conclusions. Key findings: The legal vacuum in the regulation of mining acts as a serious inhibiting factor at the current stage of its improvement and often itself becomes an offense. At the same time, cryptocurrency mining is one of the new types of entrepreneurial activity, in connection with which in the near future it is necessary to introduce state regulation of cryptocurrency mining in the Russian Federation, for which it is necessary: to develop a law regulating the organization and implementation of the production of cryptocurrencies using cryptographic algorithms; to supplement the classifier of the main type of carried out economic activity with a new type of activity — mining; to create a unified electronic register of crypto farms operating on the territory of the Russian Federation; supplement the existing legislation of the Russian Federation and the Eurasian Economic Union with the norms regulating the import of mining equipment. Thus, the important results of the study are: the development of the problems posed, which for a long time remained outside the attention of specialists, as well as the significant novelty of the factual material introduced into circulation.

Authors:   Kutafin Moscow State Law University (MSAL), Mikheeva Irina
Published: April 2021

The article deals with the issues of customer identification using new modern technologies that make it possible for banks to carry out more effective measures to counteract the legalization (laundering) of proceeds from crime. The author analyzes the current Russian legislation and regulations of the Bank of Russia in terms of remote identification of individual customers for individual banking operations. The mechanism of remote identification is considered, within which a technological infrastructure has been developed, including a Single biometric system and a Single identification and authentication system. The article notes that the introduction of remote identification provides advantages for both banks and Bank clients. The ability of banks to use identification data obtained by other credit institutions is the main goal of changes to the remote identification procedure. At the same time, credit organizations in such cases, taking into account the recommendation of the Basel Committee, should not forget to implement the “know your customer” policy. The paper examines the practice of Russian banks in the framework of pilot projects on the use of blockchain technology for remote identification and storage of information in relation to customers, in particular, on the example of a pilot KYC Project based on Masterchains. The author identifies the main legal risks of using new digital technologies, and emphasizes the need to ensure the safety of personal data.

Authors: Chernyadjeva Marija A. , Vasyura Aleksandr S. , Novikov Vyacheslav V.
Published: April 2021

BACKGROUND: Today, the question of the tactics of surgical treatment of patients with idiopathic scoliosis during active bone growth, namely, the need for ventral interventions due to the emergence of modern dorsal instruments, remains open.
AIM: This study aims to evaluate the role of ventral interventions in the surgical treatment of patients with progressive idiopathic scoliosis Lenke type 1, 2, 3 during the period of active bone growth.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The long-term results of operational correction 352 patients with thoracic idiopathic scoliosis aged from 10 to 14 years old operated in Novosibirsk Research Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics n.a. Ya.L. Tsivyan from 1998 to 2018 using various methods and different instrumentation types.
RESULTS: Among patients (352 people) aged 10 to 14 years with idiopathic thoracic scoliosis (Lenke type 1, 2, 3), statistically significant postoperative progression was observed in patients who underwent surgical deformity correction using laminar (hook) fixation. At the same time, additional ventral stage conduction could not prevent deformity progression in the postoperative period. In those groups where hybrid fixation was used combined with the ventral stage and total transpedicular fixation, no significant progression was observed in the postoperative period.
CONCLUSION: Modern dorsal systems for transpedicular fixation narrow the indications for using additional mobilizing and stabilizing ventral interventions in the surgical treatment of progressive idiopathic scoliosis in patients with active bone growth. Total transpedicular fixation provides excellent main curve and anti-curvature arch correction in the absence of scoliotic deformity progression in the postoperative long-term follow-up.

Yapılan görüşmeler, öğretmen ve öğrenciler ile bireysel olarak, çevrim içi ortamda araştırmacı tarafından gerçekleştirilmiştir. Görüşmelerde elde edilen verilerin analizinde içerik analizi tekniği kullanılmıştır. Öğretmen ve öğrenci görüşlerine göre araştırmada elde edilen en genel sonuç ise, LGS’nin anlama, muhakeme yapma, uygulama, yorumlama, analiz etme gibi üst düzey bilişsel becerilere ihtiyaç duyulan, günlük hayat durumları içeren, matematiksel kavramların ve bilgilerin belirli bir kurgu ile verildiği problemler içerdiği söylenebilir. Diğer taraftan öğretmenlerin LGS matematik problemlerine yönelik farkındalık düzeylerinin yüksek olmasına rağmen, algılanan öğretimsel yaklaşımlarının olması gereken ideal yaklaşımlar ile uyumlu olmadığı görülmektedir. Öğretmenlerin yaşadığı bilgi eksikliklerin giderilmesi adına bir takım adımların atılması gerektiği söylenebilir.

Deconstructive Analysis of Netflix Series Hollywood
Authors: KILIÇ Emir Orhan , ÇAKIR Ezgi
Published: April 2021

Deconstruction, put forward by Jacques Derrida, is a theory that combines literature and philosophy to reveal the structural hegemonies, hierarchies in the language, and to find alterations and instabilities in the language called “logos”. The Netflix miniseries Hollywood (2020) is created and produced by Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan. It is suitable for deconstructive analysis, as it tells about a permanent displacement, inconsistencies, changes and plays in meaning, gender confusions and the establishment of new hierarchies instead of the fallen ones. Deconstruction technique has been conducted on film criticism in various ways. Case study of this research; the Hollywood series, which has claimed itself to have been a production against sexist and racist discrimination in the 1940s Hollywood, will be shown to have unconsciously constructed new hierarchies and hegemonies while fighting the existing taboos. The aim of this study is to contribute former practices of the use of deconstruction in film criticism. As a result of this study, it has been revealed that Netflix series Hollywood feeds the hegemonies it criticizes and serves those structures.

O Amigo da Onça: continuidade e reapropriação do personagem de Péricles
Authors: Carmelino Ana Cristina
Published: April 2021

El objetivo del texto es mostrar la permanencia en el imaginario social de una de las principales referencias en la historia del humor gráfico y de las historietas en Brasil, “O Amigo da Onça”, un personaje creado por Péricles Maranhão en 1943 y publicado como un dibujo humorístico en la revista O Cruzeiro. La hipótesis es que la supervivencia del personaje a lo largo del tiempo, que se reanuda a veces por continuidad, a veces por apropiación, se explica por algunas relaciones intertextuales específicas. Es una narración fluida, que, además de reescribirse siempre, se desborda de su continente, asumiendo diferentes formatos
Watchmen: héroes y terapia del shock. Un diálogo entre Damon Lindelof y Alan Moore
Authors: Bartual Roberto
Published: April 2021

El artículo tiene como propósito establecer un diálogo entre Watchmen, el cómic de Alan Moore y Dave Gibbons, y su continuación televisiva, realizada bajo la dirección creativa de Damon Lindelof. Este diálogo se establece sobre el contenido político de ambas obras, puntualmente en su crítica al neoliberalismo como régimen político y económico. Argumentamos que el espacio temático y narrativo tanto del cómic como de la serie es similar porque ambos construyen su narración como una crítica a este conjunto de ideas, y que sus diferencias proceden del modo en que se vinculan y comentan sobre los cambios experimentados por el neoliberalismo a lo largo de 30 años. Finalmente, proponemos una interpretación anarquista de ambas obras.
Identifying the oppurtunities for the design of digital platforms: a topic modelling approach

Published: April 2021

Aquaculture is one of the fast-growing food-producing agriculture subsectors. However, the digital infrastructures developed in aquaculture are self-organising platforms i.e. they do not rely on a centralized intermediary for monitoring, coordinating activities or for overseeing transactions. Hence, the main objective of this research paper is to identify the challenges farmers face in an entire supply chain for designing a digital platform for the aquaculture domain. The main problems faced by the farmers include water quality issues, disease outbreak, lack of proper information regarding suitable insurance policies etc. We have identified eight such issues that the farmers face in an entire harvest period and also prioritized them. The results from our study could be used for the further advancement of an integrative perspective in the design and implementation of the digital platform for aquaculture.
El golpe de la injusticia distributiva de las áreas verdes a las poblaciones menos favorecidas en el contexto del Covid-19
Authors: Tang Valdez Andrea
Published: April 2021

El presente trabajo consta de tres partes. En la primera se introduce la necesidad de un estándar en metraje por habitante de área verde en las ciudades de Perú. Adicionalmente, que los sucesos como la pandemia por el Covid-19 pueden afectar a la población sobremanera debido al manejo de espacios públicos, específicamente las áreas verdes sin planificar. En la segunda parte se extiende una reflexión sobre la nueva tipología de rediseño de espacios verdes como respuesta ante la pandemia y prevención ante futuros escenarios que sometan a las poblaciones al aislamiento social obligatorio y como nueva mirada del concepto de desarrollo urbano sostenible. En la tercera parte se trata la afectación de las poblaciones, sobre todo las menos favorecidas, a situaciones de aislamiento social debido a la injusticia distributiva de las áreas verdes en las ciudades.
Estimating School Race/Ethnic Enrollment Effects on Student Mental Health: Density and Diversity as a Risk or Protective Factor

Objective: To investigate effects of school race/ethnic enrollment on mental health in early adolescence by examining both race/ ethnic density (percent non-Latinx [NL] White enrollment) and diversity (range/size of all race/ethnic groups enrolled). Variation by student race/ethnic identity is examined as minority stressors are uniquely experi­enced by race/ethnic minority students.Design: Longitudinal cohort from a broader mental health study.Setting: Fourteen schools in Texas (2011- 2015).Participants: Sixth-grade participants (mean age 11.5 years) linked to publicly available data about their school (N=389).Methods: Generalized estimating equations tested main effects of density/diversity on depressive-anxious symptoms across stu­dent-reported race/ethnic identity, adjusting for student/school factors. Owing to statisti­cally significant Latinx-group differences by acculturative stress, four unique identities were generated: NL-Black, low-stress Latinx, high-stress Latinx, and NL-White—referent. Points of convergence of student mental health profiles across density/diversity were explored.Main Outcome Measures: Self-reported depressive-anxious symptoms over a two-year period.Results: A significant interaction between density and student race/ethnicity was found (P<.01), with NL-Black and low-stress Latinx vs NL-White students experi­encing higher symptoms over the two-year period, net of covariates. In contrast, greater diversity was associated with higher symp­toms, net of controls (P<.05). A marginally significant interaction (P=.06) revealed fewer symptoms for high-stress Latinx vs NL-White students. At about 25%, NL-White density and diversity of .5-.6, all students experienced similar mental health profiles.Conclusions: Greater NL-White density increases mental health risk for NL-Black and low-stress Latinx students, while school diversity lowers risk for high-stress Latinx students. These findings demonstrate how educational settings may produce or lessen minority stress.Ethn Dis. 2021;31(2):205- 216; doi:10.18865/ed.31.2.205
