Authors: Srivastava Gitanjali , Paris Chelsea , Johnson Jessica , Barnes Emma , Cunningham Brittany , Stimson C J , Niswender Kevin D. , Poon Sabrina J.
Published: July 2021

Background: Bundled payments are services rendered at pre-determined costs with the goal of providing high value care. Our institution’s Episodes of Care team partnered with its tertiary care obesity center to design a novel medical weight management bundle for employers that would collectively deliver high value obesity services.

Objective: As a first step, we sought to evaluate short-term medical weight loss outcomes over 6 months at the obesity center.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed weight loss outcomes on 157 patients with commercial insurance coverage over a period of 6 months.

Results: Patients ranged in age from 18-72 years, and 77.7% were female. Patients ranged in weight from 160-443 pounds, with a mean body mass index (BMI) of 42.7 kg/m2 (Class 3a severe obesity; BMI range 28.4-74.5). The prevalence of any obesity-related medical condition was 54.1%; at least a quarter of the patients had either prediabetes or Type 2 diabetes mellitus, approximately a third had hypertension, and over 8% had hyperlipidemia. Mean weight loss from the initial program start date was 6.28% (+/-0.48% standard error of mean [SEM]; 95% confidence interval [CI] 5.34-7.23%). Completers (defined as having at least 6 visits with a medical provider) achieved a higher percentage of weight loss (7.06%) from the initial program start compared to non-completers (4.68%; at least 4-5 visits with a medical provider; P<0.0158). Approximately 50% of patients were able to achieve >7% weight loss, with over 55% of patients achieving at least 3% weight loss or higher irrespective of BMI classification.

Conclusions: Specialized medical weight intervention is effective in treating high-risk obesity with complications. This has implications for enhanced long-term cost savings related to employer coverage of such programs for their employees with obesity.

Published: July 2021

The work aimed to characterize the flammability of different forest species. The combustible materials were collected in two places with different phytophysiognomies, both in the state of Paraíba, Brazil. The plant materials used were: Poincianella bracteosa, Aspidosperma pyrifolium, Luetzelburgia auriculata, Croton sonderianus and Pinus sp. acicles and branches were used as a control. The burns were carried out in an open area located in the forest nursery, where approximately 0.5 kg of material was weighed on a precision scale. After the organization of the plots, the thickness of each pile was measured with the aid of a ruler graduated in centimeters. To determine the speed of fire propagation, the average time spent by the fire front (m s-1) to travel pre-established distances during the fires was measured. It is observed that among the studied materials, Pinus was the one that presented the lowest weight after burning the material and was the species that presented the highest temperature after burning, followed by C. sonderianus and A. pyrifolium. Before burning, all species showed behaviors, ranging from 30 to 33 °C. It is extremely important to replicate this type of study in forest areas, since the variations found can influence the results. The effect of burning combustible materials on soil temperature was greater in treatments with Pinus and C. sonderianus.

Published: July 2021

In tropical forests, different physiological characteristics of leaves in tree species are evidenced by variations in different incident light conditions. We aim to evaluate gas exchange and organization of leaf vascular system in Guazuma ulmifolia Lam. seedlings under different light conditions. Seedlings were obtained from seeds germinated under greenhouse conditions with controlled environment. Ninety days after germination, seedlings in 8kg pots were transferred to the experimental site to allow acclimatization under sun and shade conditions. The experimental design was completely randomized, with two treatments: full sunlight and artificial shading, limiting the luminosity to about 5% of irradiance. Seedlings were maintained under these conditions for 120 days before measuring gas exchange parameters. We measured photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, sub-stomatic CO2 concentration, transpiration, and chlorophyll content. Anatomical analysis measured distance between veins, distance from veins to abaxial epidermis, distance from veins to adaxial epidermis, distance from veins to stomata, total leaf thickness, abaxial epidermis thickness, adaxial epidermis thickness, palisade parenchyma thickness, and spongy parenchyma thickness of foliar gas exchange of G. ulmifolia which presented significant differences between light environments. Photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance were reduced by 78% and 39%, respectively, in shade, while stomatal conductance increased by 31% in full sunlight. Transpiration showed no significant difference between the two treatments, but chlorophyll content was 30% lower in full sunlight. Distance between veins and distance from veins to stomata showed no difference between treatments, but the other parameters increased in full sunlight. Thus, the results showed that the pioneer species G. ulmifolia presented leaf gas exchange acclimated to environments with high luminosity.

Published: July 2021

Cotton varieties develop differently because they present different physiological characteristics in production environments. This study aimed to know the physiological characteristics of cotton. The experiment was carried out at the São Paulo Agribusiness Technology Agency (APTA), Alta Paulista region. The experimental design used was Entirely Randomized (DIC), with six cotton cultivars: IMA5801B2RF; FM975WS; TMG47B2RF; TMG81WS; FM944GL and IACRDN. Where the following physiological parameters were determined: Assimilation rate CO2, leaf transpiration, stomatal conductance, internal concentration of CO2 in the substomatic chamber and efficient use of water. The cotton varieties showed different physiological characteristics, the IMA5801B2RF variety had the lowest performance, which may reflect low productivity. Further physiological studies are needed to understand the Cotton varieties behavior

O objetivo desta nota científica é relatar a contribuição das cultivares da Embrapa para a produção de arroz no Tocantins. Cultivares de arroz são tecnologias de importância primária na produção, por isso deveriam ser consideradas no planejamento de plantios das lavouras pelos orizicultores tocantinenses. São anos de pesquisa, desde os cruzamentos iniciais de plantas, avaliações e selecão das linhagens para se obter um material com as características genéticas e fenótipicas desejáveis em uma cultivar de arroz melhorada. Na semente de uma cultivar desenvolvida pelo programa de melhoramento da Embrapa estão contidas características e fatores importantes como a pureza genética e fisíca, qualidade fisiológica e fitossanitária. A pureza genética garante ausência de misturas de outras cultivares no lote, cujos resultados são tolerância a doenças, uniformidade de plantas, melhor qualidade dos grãos e maior potencial produtivo. A pureza física garante ausência de impurezas como partículas de solo, restos vegetais, pedras, sementes danificadas, sementes de plantas daninhas e de outras espécies. A qualidade fisiológica trata-se da capacidade das sementes em gerarem plantas sadias, com maior vigor e germinação. Já a qualidade fitossanitária é garantia de uso de sementes livres de micro-organismos causadores de doenças. As principais contribuições das cultivares de arroz da Embrapa para a produção de arroz no Tocantins são aumento de 30% da produtividade nos últimos 10 anos, melhoria da qualidade industrial dos grãos com rendimento de grãos inteiros tipo 1 superior a 60% e tolerância às doenças, ocasionando uma redução de 50% na aplicação de produtos fitossanitários.

Aim: To study the nutritional quality and its impact on the health of the students of higher education institutions.
Material and methods: 647 students were interviewed. A questionnaire, which contains 17 questions and is aimed at studying the quality of students’ nutrition, was created by authors. Experimental (EG, n = 60) and control (CG, n = 60) groups were formed. The EG included the students whose diet was rational while studying, the CG included the students whose diet was irrational. The level of students’ health was examined at the end of studying according to the methodology of professor G.L. Apanasenko.
Results: It was found that only 30.6% of students ate 3-4 times a day, 14.4% – twice a day, 49.8% did not follow any dietary regimen, and 7.9% of students would not eat breakfast at al 43.7% of male students and 53.3% of female students did not follow a dietary regimen at all. A comparative analysis of the physical health of students of EG and CG showed that among both male and female students, the students whose diet was rational had significantly better (p<0.001) level of health.
Conclusions: It was determined that the majority of students had low nutritional quality while studying: nutrition was irrational, incomplete, and not varied. This does not contribute to a healthy lifestyle of modern students and can negatively affect the efficiency of their future professional activities.

Published: July 2021

Background: Canadian specialist residency training programs are implementing a form of competency-based medical education (CBME) that requires frequent assessments of entrustable professional activities (EPAs). Faculty struggle to provide helpful feedback and assign appropriate entrustment scores. CBME faculty development initiatives rarely incorporate teaching metrics. Dashboards could be used to visualize faculty assessment data to support faculty development.
Methods: Using a design-based research process, we identified faculty development needs related to CBME assessments and designed a dashboard containing elements (data, analytics, and visualizations) meeting these needs. Data was collected within the emergency medicine residency program at the University of Saskatchewan through interviews with program leaders, faculty development experts, and faculty participating in development sessions. Two investigators thematically analyzed interview transcripts to identify faculty needs that were audited by a third investigator. The needs were described using representative quotes and the dashboard elements designed to address them.
Results: Between July 1, 2019 and December 11, 2020 we conducted 15 interviews with nine participants (two program leaders, three faculty development experts, and four faculty members). Three needs emerged as themes from the analysis: analysis of assessments, contextualization of assessments, and accessible reporting. We addressed these needs by designing an accessible dashboard to present contextualized quantitative and narrative assessment data for each faculty member.
Conclusions: We identified faculty development needs related to EPA assessments and designed dashboard elements to meet them. The resulting dashboard was used for faculty development sessions. This work will inform the development of CBME assessment dashboards for faculty.

Donkey Kong's Legacy
Authors: Bruder Johannes
Published: July 2021

The article discusses forms of contamination between human and artificial intelligence in computational neuroscience and machine learning research. I begin with a deep dive into an experiment with the legacy microprocessor MOS 6502, conducted by two engineers working in computational neuroscience, to explain why and how machine learning algorithms are increasingly employed to simulate human cognition and behavior. Through the strategic use of the microprocessor as “model organism” and references to biological and psychological lab research, the authors draw attention to speculative research in machine learning, where arcade video games designed in the 1980s provide test beds for artificial intelligences under development. I elaborate on the politics of these test beds and suggest alternative avenues for machine learning research to avoid that artificial intelligence merely reproduces settler-colonialist politics in silico.

The storage duration can increase up to 20 minutes if there is repetition of information. To increase the effectiveness of speed limit signs, a simulation of the installation of speed limit signs is carried out repeatedly.
Bending-gravity waves in the sea with an ice cover from moving disturbances
Authors: Маленко Ж.В. , Ярошенко А.А.
Published: July 2021

В статье проводятся исследования колебаний плавающего ледяного покрова под действием движущихся возмущений. В основу колебаний плавающего ледяного покрова положены линеаризованные уравнения гидромеханики и линейная классическая теория колебаний пластин. Ледяной покров рассматривается как тонкая упругая изотропная пластинка. Анализируются образующиеся при этом трехмерные изгибно-гравитационные волны. Показано, что при движении источника возмущений со скоростью 0<v<v0 изгибно-гравитационные волны не образуются, а наблюдается статический прогиб. Здесь v0 – минимальное значение фазовой скорости. При скорости движения v0<v<v1 образуется одна система изгибно-гравитационных волн. Эти волны распространяются как впереди, так и за источником возмущений. Волны, бегущие впереди источника, обусловлены упругими и массовыми силами пластинки. Волны, распространяющиеся за источником, имеют характер гравитационной волны для чистой воды. При v1<v<(gH)1/2 образуется три системы волн. Упругие волны распространяются впереди источника. Две другие волны распространяются за источником и носят характер поперечной и продольной корабельных волн. При v>(gH)1/2 образуются впереди источника упругие волны, а за источником продольные корабельные волны. Исследовано влияние скорости перемещения нагрузки на амплитуды образующихся волн.

The article studies the fluctuations of the floating ice cover under the action of moving perturbations. The vibrations of the floating ice cover are based on the linearized equations of hydro-mechanics and the linear classical theory of plate vibrations. The ice sheet is considered as a thin elastic isotropic plate. The resulting three-dimensional bending-gravity waves are analyzed. It is shown that when the source of disturbances moves at a speed of 0<v<v0, bending-gravitational waves are not formed, but a static deflection is observed. Here v0is the minimum value of the phase velocity. At the speed of motion v0<v<v1, a single system of bending-gravitational waves is formed. These waves propagate both ahead and behind the source of the disturbances. The waves traveling ahead of the source are caused by the elastic and mass forces of the plate. The waves propagating behind the source have the character of a gravitational wave for pure water. At v1<v<(gH)1/2, three wave systems are formed. Elastic waves propagate ahead of the source. The other two waves propagate behind the source and have the character of transverse and longitudinal ship waves. At v>(gH)1/2, elastic waves are formed in front of the source, and longitudinal ship waves are formed behind the source. The influence of the load displacement velocity on the amplitudes of the generated waves is investigated.

В статье рассматривается способ применения методов сверхбыстрого сканирования в радиолокационных технических соседствах обнаружения систем охраны объектов транспортной инфраструктуры. В основе предлагаемого подхода использована возможность формирования требуемого ракурса зондирования пространства однопозиционной системой со сверхбыстрым сканированием луча антенны в угловом секторе обзора. Опыт эксплуатации систем охраны показывает, что для обеспечения зон безопасности морских терминалов, гидротехнических сооружений, акваторий морских портов и т.п. существенным является организация пространственных зон контроля. Разработана математическая модель формирования требуемой конфигурации зоны обнаружения радиолокационным средством со сверхсканированием на примере участка порта Новороссийск. Полученные аналитические зависимости законов сверхсканирования позволяют учесть сценарии различных ситуаций нарушения безопасности, по которым тревожными считаются факты появления или движения объектов в запрещённом направлении относительно условно заданных границ контролируемой территории.

The article considers a method of applying ultra-fast scanning methods in radar technical neighborhoods for detecting security systems for transport infrastructure objects. The proposed approach is based on the possibility of forming the required perspective of space sensing by a single-position system with ultra-fast scanning of the antenna beam in the angular sector of the view. The experience of operating security systems shows that the organization of spatial control zones is essential for ensuring the security zones of sea terminals, hydraulic structures, seaports, etc. A mathematical model of the formation of the required configuration of the detection zone by radar means with superscanning is developed on the example of the port of Novorossiysk section. The obtained analytical dependences of the laws of superscanning allow us to take into account scenarios of various security violation situations, according to which the facts of the appearance or movement of objects in the prohibited direction relative to the conditionally defined boundaries of the controlled territory are considered alarming.

Perfil Sociodemográfico e iniciação esportiva na corrida Orientação no Brasil: um estudo transversal
Authors: Solagaistua de Matos Fábio , Corrêa Gustavo
Published: July 2021

Introdução: A Orientação, praticada no Brasil desde os anos 70, encontra dificuldades na popularização e no aumento consistente de participantes em suas principais competições. Nessa condição, torna-se um esporte subestimado no que diz respeito à busca por recursos financeiros e aspectos de visibilidade midiática, visto que possui um altíssimo grau de atratividade envolvendo fatores físicos e cognitivos, tendo como local de prática os cenários naturais que por si só despertariam interesse instantâneo como acontece em vários países do continente europeu.Objetivo: Descrever as características sociodemográficas do atleta brasileiro da Orientação e examinar a temporalidade do início nessa prática esportiva. Métodos: Estudo observacional, transversal, no qual foi utilizado um questionário online por meio do Formulários Google, contendo 68 perguntas. Participaram da pesquisa 638 atletas do Esporte Orientação, de ambos os sexos. Foram realizadas análises estatísticas descritivas em termos de média, desvio padrão e porcentagem.Resultados: Os praticantes, com a faixa etária variando dos 13 aos 77 anos(média 39,3 ±13,7), pertenciam a uma classe social mais elevada, com formação acadêmica privilegiada e teve a iniciação no esporte após os 21 anos de idadeConclusão: Os praticantes de Orientação no Brasil fazem parte de uma faixa socioeconômica mais alta, destoando da média da população nacional. Os resultados indicam que pode haver necessidade de estratégias de desenvolvimento da modalidade que promovam a inclusão esportiva de pessoas de camadas sociais de renda mais baixa.

Published: July 2021

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are a mesodermal stem cell population, with known self-renewal and multilineage differentiation properties. In the last century, MSCs have been widely used in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering approaches. MSCs initially were isolated from bone marrow aspirates, but currently have been identified in a great number of tissues of the human body. Besides their utilization in regenerative medicine, MSCs possess significant immunoregulatory/immunosuppressive properties, through interaction with the cells of innate and adaptive immunity. MSCs can exert their immunomodulatory properties with either cell-cell contact or via paracrine secretion of molecules, such as cytokines, growth factors and chemokines. Of particular importance, the MSCs’ immunomodulatory properties are explored as promising therapeutic strategies in immune-related disorders, such as autoimmune diseases, graft versus host disease, cancer. MSCs may also have an additional impact on coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19), by attenuating the severe symptoms of this disorder. Nowadays, a great number of clinical trials, of MSC-mediated therapies are evaluated for their therapeutic potential. In this review, the current knowledge on cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in MSC-mediated immunomodulation were highlighted. Also, the most important aspects, regarding their potential application in immune-related diseases, will be highlighted. The broad application of MSCs has emerged their role as key immunomodulatory players, therefore their utilization in many disease situations is full of possibilities for future clinical treatment.
Angiotensin peptides in the regulation of adrenal cortical function
Authors: Rossi Gian Paolo , Lenzini Livia , Caroccia Brasilina , Rossitto Giacomo , Seccia Teresa Maria
Published: July 2021

The adrenal cortex plays a key role in the regulation of metabolism, salt and water homeostasis and sex differentiation by synthesizing glucocorticoid, mineralocorticoid and androgen hormones. Evidence exists that angiotensin II regulates adrenocortical function and it has been contended that angiotensin peptides of the non-canonical branch of the renin angiotensin system (RAS) might also modulate steroidogenesis in adrenals. Thus, the aim of this review is to examine the role of the RAS, and particularly of the angiotensin peptides and their receptors, in the regulation of adrenocortical hormones with particular focus on aldosterone production.
A framework for big data integration within the strategic management process based on a balanced scorecard methodology
Authors: Alnoukari Mouhib
Published: July 2021

The purpose of this research is to study the impact of big data initiatives on strategic management processes. While the majority of strategic management disciplines have had research dedicated to the use of strategic management theories to understand how big data affect organizational performance, the body of research on big data lacks academic work capable of examining how to integrate big data into the strategic management process. The main contributions of this work are: (1) it highlights the strategic use of big data; (2) it analyses the main frameworks/models proposed by scholars that support the use of big data as a strategic management tool, and outlines this research gap; and (3) it proposes a new framework that integrates big data within the strategic management process based on a balanced scorecard methodology.
Integrating science and technology metrics into a competitive technology intelligence methodology
Authors: Rodriguez-Salvador Marisela , Castillo-Valdez Pedro F.
Published: July 2021

For years, the appropriate interpretation and application of metrics have enabled scientists to assess science and technology dynamics. Consequently, diverse disciplines have emerged, such as bibliometrics, scientometrics and patentometrics, offering important theoretical and methodological contributions. However, the current accelerated technological advances require researchers to implement a superior approach to detect continuous changes in the external environment identifying opportunities and vulnerabilities to strengthen the decision-making process regarding R&D and innovation. In this context, competitive technology intelligence (CTI) offers a strategic approach based on a continuous cycle where information is transformed into an actionable result. This research provides a broader scope to science and technology metrics, incorporating them into a CTI global methodology of eight steps. Metrics add value throughout the entire CTI process, from project planning to decision-making stages, having the most significant role in the information analysis stage, mainly to process information from sources such as scientific documents, patents, and social networks. Particularly, this approach considers recent studies in CTI in which quantitative tools such as patentometrics and scientometrics were successfully used. This proposal can be applied to predict upcoming technologies, movements of competitors, disrupting activities, market changes, and future trends. Accordingly, this research adds value to the assessment of science and technology dynamics, aiming to improve the decision-making process of R&D and innovation.

History of Jirga Laws in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa - Do Islamic Law and Jirga Laws had the same Historical Jurisprudential Approach?
Authors: Lutfullah Saqib  , Rasheed Ahmad Faizy
Published: July 2021

Jirga, a historical legal antique has been an informal adjudication of Pakhtūns. In the present research endeavor conventional Jirga and its various facets had been critically examined from Sharī’ah perspective i.e. whether such Jirga and its procedure is based on Islamic law or not. Jarga bears a very close resemblance in terms of structure and procedure with Qad̝ā and Taḥkīm. Jirga has been simple with no binding implementation. Since 18th century and on-wards, Jirga has evolved into an informal institution of dispute resolution. The criterion for Jirga-Mārān, and Qād̝ī or Ḥākim, astonishingly, have been identical. Besides the free consent, justice dispenser (Jarga-Mār/Qād̝ī or Ḥākim) was supposed not be relative or party (himself) in the matter at all. The fuqahā, both classical and contemporary, have discussed the intermediation through Jirga. This study focuses on compliance and non-compliance of Jirga to Qad̝ā.
Quantificar, padronizar e planejar: registros de câncer e atenção oncológica no Brasil (1960-1980)
Authors: Alves Araújo Neto Luiz
Published: July 2021

Este artigo discute o processo de criação dos primeiros registros de câncer no Brasil e os debates sobre quantificação, padronização e planejamento da atenção oncológica relacionados à estruturação desses serviços. Argumento que a trajetória conflituosa dos registros de câncer no país exemplifica a tensão entre uma estrutura conceitual da medicina, em mudança durante a segunda metade do século XX, e a realidade institucional da atenção oncológica. A discussão é circunscrita ao intervalo entre 1960 e 1980, período em que os primeiros registros foram criados em São Paulo e Pernambuco, em 1967, seguidos de outros em Porto Alegre, Fortaleza, João Pessoa e Rio de Janeiro. Além disso, esse intervalo foi marcado pelos debates sobre a importância da notificação e registro dos casos de câncer para a construção de uma política de atenção oncológica eficaz, permitindo visualizar as tensões mencionadas no argumento. O artigo dialoga com os Estudos Sociais da Medicina e a Sociologia da Quantificação, utilizando fontes de caráter técnico, como publicações em periódicos especializados em câncer, relatórios e publicações de instituições médicas e de saúde e documentos institucionais.
Jupiter’s Dynamical Love Number
Authors: Lai Dong
Published: July 2021

Recent observations by the Juno spacecraft have revealed that the tidal Love number k
2 of Jupiter is 4% lower than the hydrostatic value. We present a simple calculation of the dynamical Love number of Jupiter that explains the observed “anomaly.” The Love number is usually dominated by the response of the (rotation-modified) f-modes of the planet. Our method also allows for efficient computation of high-order dynamical Love numbers. While the inertial-mode contributions to the Love numbers are negligible, a sufficiently strong stratification in a large region of the planet’s interior would induce significant g-mode responses and influence the measured Love numbers.
