Pandemic-Related Experiences and Psychosocial Risk Associations Among U.S. Medical Students
Authors: Nathaniel A. Jenkins  , Damion J. Grasso
Published: January 2022

Background: Since the start of the COVID-19 global pandemic there has been a profound impact on the psychosocial health of medical professionals, with heightened risk reported on measures of depression, anxiety, and stress relative to non-healthcare professionals. However, there is limited data on the impact of COVID-19 on the psychosocial health of U.S. undergraduate medical students. The current cross-sectional study aims to examine associations between pandemic-related experiences and psychosocial risk among a sample of medical students attending a Northeastern U.S. allopathic medical school.
Methods: One-hundred and seventy-nine students (42.6% of the study body) completed an online survey during the COVID-19 pandemic that included sociodemographic characteristics, the 30-item Brief Epidemic-Pandemic Impacts Inventory (EPII-B), the 2-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-2), the 2-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-2), and the Primary Care PTSD Screen for DSM-5 (PC-PTSD-5).
Results: Rates of serious adverse pandemic-related experiences (e.g., increased conflict, less physical activity, frequent substance use) were as high as 37.5%. Students with a greater number of adverse pandemic-related experiences reported more time with COVID-19 positive patients and were more likely to screen positive for depression, anxiety, and PTSD (rs from 0.25 – 0.34, all ps < 0.01).
Conclusion: These findings suggest the need for other U.S. medical schools to evaluate and address medical student mental health during the COVID-19 public health crisis.

Authors: Odeyemi Olubunmi , Eyitayo James , Ogunfolaji Oloruntoba , Williams Shekinah , Akande Michael , Akinola Onaopemipo
Published: January 2022

Background: Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, efforts have been aimed at promoting preventive measures towards curtailing the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The effectiveness of measures put in place by the government are mostly determined by the Knowledge, Attitude, and Practices (KAP) of the citizenry. We sought to determine the KAP of young Nigerian adults towards preventive strategies against COVID-19.
Methods: An online survey was prepared using an 18-question questionnaire to assess the KAP of each participant that satisfied predefined criteria. Data obtained were screened for error and analyzed with SPSS version 23. The level of significance was set at p<0.05.
Results: A total of 925 valid responses were received with a 96.25% response rate. Females made up 52.4% of the respondents, 62.4% were aged between 21-24, and 88.4% were from South-western Nigeria. The mean knowledge score was 9.02 (SD 1.18) with a maximum possible knowledge score of 13. Most of the participants (91.7%) agreed that COVID-19 will eventually be successfully controlled. Only 31.1% however had been wearing masks when leaving home. The confidence of winning the battle against COVID-19 differed significantly across the ethnic groups (p<0.01). Ages between 15 and 24 were more likely to visit crowded places (p<0.01).
Conclusion: This study revealed a good knowledge level and an optimistic attitude towards the control of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, much more work is needed by government and health officials to translate these to better practices towards prevention and control as the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic continues.
Assessing Medical Students’ Self-Perceived Preparedness to Care for Gender Diverse Patients: A Survey Study
Authors: Bonasia Kyra L , Morgan Allie , Solomon Christina Grace , Damiano Ella A
Published: January 2022

Background: Many transgender patients report avoiding healthcare due to discrimination, lack of provider knowledge, and perceived lower quality of care related to their gender identity. One factor contributing to these disparities may be a lack of preparation in medical school related to gender diversity.

Methods: This cross-sectional survey study assessed third- and fourth-year medical students’ self-perceived preparedness to provide medical care for gender diverse patients, at one medical school in the United States. Mixed methods were used with both quantitative analyses and qualitative analyses using grounded theory.

Results: 54 of 216 eligible students completed the survey (response rate 25%). 53.7% rated themselves as prepared to take a complete medical history from transgender patients compared to 94.4% for cisgender patients. 51.9% rated themselves as prepared to discuss cervical cancer screening with transmasculine patients. Only 31.5% rated themselves as prepared to provide inclusive preconception counselling. Concerns included using the wrong language and lacking appropriate medical knowledge. The most cited sources of learning about gender diversity were independent learning and fellow students. Five themes emerged in qualitative analyses, two of which included a request for greater opportunities to practice working with gender diverse patients and longitudinal integration of transgender medicine across the curriculum.

Conclusion: Medical students who completed this survey rated themselves as less prepared to care for gender diverse patients compared to cisgender patients. Their current knowledge was largely based on learning outside of the medical school curriculum. The respondents highlighted many opportunities for improvement in medical school curricula.
Risk, uncertainty & decisions about australian retirement village residency for seniors
Authors:   Macquarie University, Kyng Timothy , Li Ling ,   Macquarie University, Bilgin Ayse ,   Macquarie University
Published: January 2022

“Retirement Villages” (RVs) are a common form of housing for older people in Australia. RV contracts are very complex. RV residency terminates on death or ill health. At Macquarie we developed a free online RV financial calculator. This is designed to help consumers with understanding the contracts, comparison shopping, and avoiding costly mistakes. It takes account of longevity / health and financial risks. It converts the complex fee structure to a comparison rent payable monthly over the consumers expected healthy lifespan. RVs are much costlier than most consumers expect. The cost varies by gender and increases with age. This tool uses actuarial modelling utilising publicly available data on mortality and disability. The contracts have much in common with insurance policies. This is the first RV calculator available in Australia. The underlying actuarial model is very original and the calculator can handle the vast majority of contract designs.

Teachers with a positive attitude towards statistics and good statistical knowledge are important in preparing students to learn statistics effectively. This study explores 49 mathematics teachers’ attitude and knowledge in teaching statistics at selected secondary schools in Selangor. Forty- nine mathematics teachers from the urban and rural secondary schools were surveyed using the attitude toward statistics questionnaire and statistics assessment form. Data collected was subjected to an analysis based on the Rasch measurement model. Wright map shows that slightly over 50% of the teachers with positive attitude towards statistics perceived well in their knowledge in teaching certain statistical concepts. Differential item functioning indicates no significance difference in the attitude of teachers between rural and urban schools. Teachers with less than 10 years experience have better knowledge in graph representation and measures of central tendency while teachers with more than 10 years have better knowledge in measures of dispersion and probability.

The article considers the main types of processes that lead to corrosion of the chemical composition of raw materials that were obtained in the development of oil and gas fields.The graph shows the influence on corrosion rates of steels with different quantitative ratio of layer and fresh water (salt concentration) and speed of environment motion (oxygen). Corrosion aggressiveness of two-phase environmentally-determined physico-chemical propertiesof the hydrocarbon and water components of the system, their composition, quantitative ratio, the presence of dissolved gases (hydrogen sulfide oxygen carbon dioxide). Corrosion of metals is the spontaneous destruction of metals due to their chemical or electrochemical interaction with the external environment. When a metal is subjected to corrosion, there is not only a loss of its mass, but also a decrease in its mechanical strength, elasticity and other properties. Metal corrosion causes significant damage to the economy. For the conditions of oil and gas production enterprises, metal corrosion of oil equipment and Communications is characterized by a number of features. First of all, it affects the system of underground and surface equipment of wells, oil and water treatment plants, which is huge in terms of metal consumption and affects a wide network of oil pipelines, gas pipelines and water pipelines. Secondly, the corrosion process of all equipment usually occurs in a heterogeneous system, i.e. in the system of two non - mixed liquids: oil - water, gasoline - water, waste water-petroleum products.

Motivaciones y efectos sociales de la Economía Colaborativa: el sector del transporte en España como estudio de caso
Authors: Gil de Gómez Pérez-Aradros Carlos , Imaz Montes María del Mar
Published: January 2022

Durante los últimos años, los modelos de negocio surgidos al amparo del paradigma que abre la Economía Colaborativa han experimentado un notable crecimiento, al tiempo que el propio fenómeno de la Economía Colaborativa ampliaba la heterogeneidad de su contenido y, en gran medida, se profesionalizaba. Los efectos de este acontecimiento se perciben en muchos ámbitos, de forma especialmente notoria en el social, donde se clasifican en efectos positivos por un lado y efectos negativos por otro para, utilizando la Teoría del Triple Balance, ponderar la sostenibilidad de estas dinámicas. Paralelamente surge la cuestión: ¿Por qué se participa en los sectores colaborativos? De forma general, un análisis de la literatura académica existente nos conducirá a entender qué motivaciones de tipo social pueden subyacer a la decisión de convertirse en usuario colaborativo; de forma particular, se analiza el sector del transporte colaborativo en España a través de la encuesta “Panel de Hogares” realizada por una institución solvente como es la Comisión Nacional de los Mercados y la Competencia para comprobar qué mueve a estos consumidores, distinguiendo entre los usuarios de un modelo B2C y otro C2C, y proveedores de servicios a serlo, y esbozamos a continuación un breve perfil del consumidor para mejor comprensión de los matices de esta realidad. El resultado de este análisis proporcionará un marco de trabajo a investigaciones teóricas futuras, en tanto construye matrices sociales que contraponen los aspectos positivos frente a los efectos negativos de este paradigma; al tiempo que podría consistir una herramienta práctica en tanto perfila al usuario de transporte colaborativo en España, así como qué le mueve a participar, lo que facilitaría el lanzamiento de campañas destinadas a los grupos sociodemográficos de interés en cuestión.
Hydrochemical characterization of shallow groundwater from the Mesta River basin
Authors: Vasileva Tanya , Toteva Aglaida
Published: January 2022

Groundwater is a valuable natural resource and an important source of drinking and domestic water supply. There are two types of groundwater in the Mesta River Basin: HCO3- > Ca2++Mg2+ (1st type waters) and HCO3- < Ca2++Mg2+ < HCO3-+SO42- (2nd type waters). The waters of the first type formed in the silicate rocks, are widespread in the high mountain, mountain and low mountain area. These waters are attached to the region of regional fracturing of the Precambrian metamorphic complex represented by gneisses, granitogneisses, amphibolites and to the fractured environment of the southern Bulgarian granites and granitoids, quartzites, conglomerates and marls of the Paleozoic. The waters of the second type are characteristic of the valleys covered by Pliocene and Quaternary sediments with minimal precipitation. Groundwater from the Mesta River catchment area is mainly hydrocarbonate-calcium-magnesium with high sodium content in the southern part of the catchment area. The content of anions in groundwater is in the sequence: HCO3- > SO42-> Cl-. The cations are arranged in the order: Ca2++Mg2+ > (Na++K+) or Ca2+ > (Na++K+) > Mg2+. Groundwater is very soft to moderately hard, fresh, with TDS content up to 0.5 g/l and chloride content below 10 mg/l.

The prevalence and the genetic diversity of grapevine virus D (GVD) isolates from rootstocks, wine and table grape varieties grown in Tunisia were studied. RT-PCR assays performed on the coat protein gene (CP) showed the presence of GVD in 31.5% of the 403 samples tested. The highest rate of infection was found in table grapes (56.5%), followed by autochthonous table grapes (24.1%), wine grapes (20.8%) and rootstocks (12.5%). Sequences and phylogenetic analyses of the partial CP genes 14 GVD isolates showed nucleotide identities that ranged from 84% to 99%. The Tunisian GVD-isolates segregated in 3 phylogenetic groups together with international isolates reported in GenBank. The present study extends our knowledge of the presence of GVD in Tunisian vines and on its genetic diversity, which is useful for developing broad-spectrum molecular diagnostics (RT-PCR) capable of detecting the different isolates infecting vines.
Professor Alexander E. Rauer – one of the founders of maxillofacial plastic surgery in the USSR (on the 150th anniversary of birthday)
Authors: Morgoshiia T. Sh. , Trishkina A. R.
Published: January 2022

The paper presents the main years of the life and scientific work of the prominent Russian surgeon and scientistinnovator Professor A.E. Rauer (1871–1948). Little-known milestones from the scientist's life are marked. The paper analyzes the fact that from 1922 to the end of life (26 years) Alexander Eduardovich headed the maxillofacial department of the Central Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics (CITO). Since 1932, Professor A.E. Rauer was the head of the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery of the CIU, organized by him on the basis of the maxillofacial department of the CITO (Moscow). It is noted that Alexander Eduardovich is the author of about  100 scientific works. He summarized all his rich experience in his final work “Plastic Surgery on the face”, awarded in 1946. The Stalin Prize. The range of scientific and surgical interests of A.E. Rauer was wide and diverse. His main works were devoted to the problems of maxillofacial surgery. Rauer proposed a number of valuable ways to eliminate facial disfigurement, which have become widespread (for example, oblique osteotomy for ankylosis of the jaws, surgery for habitual dislocations, plastic surgery of through facial defects, etc.). Under the leadership of Alexander Eduardovich, the clinic also developed methods of plastic surgery for fan-shaped neck scars after thermal injuries and restoration of the pharyngeal arches with soft palate defects. It is noted that he worked a lot on plastic surgery of other organs and proposed methods of interventions for congenital malformations of the bladder, limbs, etc. During the Great Patriotic War, A.E. Rauer introduced into practice a method of treating granulating surface wounds by forming secondary plate ligatures. It is shown that after him there were many worthy students who continued his work on the further development of maxillofacial surgery, which has become an important and necessary branch of clinical medicine.
A Naive and Semantic Approach for Detecting Face Mask Region Based Convolutional Neural Networks (R-CNN)
Authors: Swaroop Shashank
Published: January 2022

Due to Covid-19, most of the health care organizations and governments has ordered their citizens to wear face mask to protect themself. This novel research presents a tactical methodology for rapid detection whether a person is wearing a face mask or not. It is entirely different from the existing system; the singular aim of the proposed system is to train the deep learning model with a minimum number of image samples and to operate face mask instance segmentation and along with object box detection. In this work, we proposed a novel and semantic pixel-to-pixel region based deep network which can detect no of face mask instances in different categories pixel wise to organize the segment bounding box and the confidence of the various categories for each pixel. This system experimental output demonstrate that this approach can effectively and precisely detect the face mask with multi-feature combination. It is also reported that our application performance outperforms the existing system.
Assessment of the pulp quality of some rare indigenous mango (Mangifera indica L.) varieties of West Bengal, India
Authors: De Mitu , Dey Santi Ranjan
Published: January 2022

The mango (Mangifera indica L.) varieties in India are some of the most diverse in the world. Fruit makes a substantial contribution to the world's economy and food supply. There has been a rapid shift in the natural habitat of the local mango in recent years owing to changes in the species' economic, biotic, and other conditions. Indigenous mango varieties need to be documented and characterised to use the genetic resource better and plan future breeding programmes. It is clear from the descriptions that there are several distinct types available. The mango pulp has varying degrees of juiciness, ranging from mild to high. Because of their limited availability in the local market, four unique, rare indigenous mango types were chosen for this research. The pulp of their fruits differed somewhat from one another. Mango variety must be saved and kept in field gene banks in order to make the most of genetic heterogeneity on the farm and maximize yields. As a result of the fact that this is just preliminary research, future investigations should concentrate on analysing the genetic variation of the mango fruit in its pulp.

Published: January 2022

This study is an empirical study that aims to determine the effect of the fraud triangle proxies on the potential on fraudulent financial statements of go-public companies on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. This study uses 22 companies that are members of the LQ-45 company for the 2016-2020 period. The test results with multiple linear regression showed that simultaneously financial targets, financial stability, external pressure, nature of industry, and change in auditors had a significant positive effect on fraudulent financial statements. Partially, the Pressure Factor with the Financial Stability proxy has a significant positive influence on the potential for financial statement fraud. However, the results of the simultaneous test of proxies for pressure factors, namely financial target, financial stability, and external pressure, did not have a significant effect. The partial test results on each variable state that the other hypotheses, namely financial targets, external pressure, nature of industry, and change in auditors, do not have a significant positive effect on potential fraud in financial statements.
 
Keywords: Fraudulent financial statement, pressure, opportunity, rationalization.

Rhythms of Nature
Authors: Carter Ian
Published: January 2022

Time outdoors is always well spent. It raises the spirits, sparks the imagination and, as research increasingly shows, measurably improves our physical and mental wellbeing. Rhythms of Nature celebrates this fundamental relationship with the natural world, and considers some ways we might rediscover it. After a career in conservation, Ian Carter moves to a secluded farmhouse tucked away in the low hills of mid-Devon between Exmoor and Dartmoor. Here he tries new approaches to exploring the local countryside. He learns the edible species, follows streams (wherever they may lead) and slips unseen through private estates. He experiments with rewilding the garden, goes on night-time rambles and watches the changing seasons in super high definition. Following on from the author’s acclaimed Human, Nature, this engaging and thought-provoking book offers simple suggestions for how to enliven a sense of wonder in our surroundings. A paean to the ‘neglected’ and untidy places that can enrich our lives, it will appeal to anyone wishing to develop a deeper connection with wildlife or who has a desire to seek out the wilder corners of our landscape.

Authors: Modi Sejal
Published: January 2022

Background: Iron deficiency is the most common cause of anemia, especially in reproductive-aged women. If not treated, it leads to weakness, fatigue, menorrhagia, amenorrhea in females and can cause serious consequences such as heart problems and complications in pregnant ladies such as premature births and low birth weight babies. Thus, it is necessary to prescribe iron supplementation in iron-deficient women to avoid complications in the later stage. Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of ferric pyrophosphate and folic acid in reproductive-aged women who suffered from iron deficiency. Methods: Electronic medical records of 100 reproductive-aged women deficient in iron were analyzed. The baseline hemoglobin and iron parameters were noted. They were prescribed a 30 mg tablet combination of ferric pyrophosphate and folic acid, and the parameters were noted at 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks. The data was statistically analyzed by SPSS version 26.0. Results: The hemoglobin (hemoglobin, total erythrocytes, mean corpuscular volume, red cell distribution width, haematocrit) and iron parameters (serum iron, ferritin, transferrin saturation, serum transferrin) showed significant improvement in week 4, which continued till week 12. The RDW levels showed much improvement after week 4 till week 12. Conclusion: Our study concluded that the combination of ferric pyrophosphate and folic acid in tablet form significantly improves the hemoglobin and iron parameters within 4 weeks and showed further improvement until 12 weeks without any complaint of side effects.

Among the forms of crystalline silica (silicon dioxide minerals) that are most common in the natural and work environments are quartz and cristobalite. They are used in various industries, including in the ceramics, glass and construction industries and pose a serious health risk to workers. The respirable of crystalline silica (RCS), which penetrates into the gas exchange area of the lungs causes chronic inflammatory reactions, followed by fibrotic changes in the lung tissue and, as a result, silicosis pneumoconiosis, often leading to lung cancer. Both employers and health and safety managers have great difficulties with the interpretation and application of legal provisions concerning the measurement of RCS concentrations (for the purpose of occupational exposure assessment) and the classification of work involving exposure to respirable dust generated during technological processes. The information in this article should help you resolve these issues.

In Tunisia, energy saving in construction has become a necessity. Currently, it occupies third place of 27% of the final national consumption. It will be the first in the head with a percentage of 33% in 2030. The decision-making of the climatic parameters at the preliminary design stage by the designer can reduce CO2 production and improve energy conservation. Therefore, the solar design must take advantage of solar radiation in an arid climate. A horizontal glass surface known as passive solar heating in the winter in which contributes to heating the space and reducing artificial lighting. This paper focuses to study skylight design using Revit architecture. The two conceptual mass modes with separated and grouped skylight are investigated. This study is based on based on Energy Use Intensity, Annual Energy Cost, and Life Cycle Energy Cost parameters to assess performance energetic and environmental of skylight system. The found results show that the skylight system improves the energy efficiency and life cycle of the building only if certain parameters of design are considered.
