Authors: Woods Leanna Sarah , Eden Rebekah , Duncan Rhona , Kodiyattu Zack , Macklin Sophie , Sullivan Clair
Published: December 2021

BACKGROUND

Digital health maturity models allow healthcare organizations to evaluate current digital state and develop roadmaps for improving patient care through digital change. Currently, there is limited capacity to assess the quality, utility, and efficacy of maturity models to select one for use.

OBJECTIVE

To work in partnership with researchers, governments, and health services to design and develop an assessment framework to facilitate recommendations for digital maturity models to use in practice.

METHODS

Underpinned by design science research, a systematic, consultative, and iterative process was used. The first step involved literature analyses and stakeholder needs analysis to develop content and design considerations. In the second step, these considerations were incorporated into a draft framework developed by researchers in a design workshop. The third step involved external stakeholder review to strengthen and finalize the framework.

RESULTS

The assessment framework to evaluate digital health maturity models provides healthcare stakeholders with a consistent and objective methodology to compare maturity models identified by different vendors. The sections in the framework include assessment of healthcare context, feasibility, integrity, completeness and actionability. Calculating subtotals across the sections enables identification of the strengths and weaknesses of the maturity model. After completing the assessment for several maturity models, users can compare their performance to provide recommendations for which maturity model to use.

CONCLUSIONS

We have developed an evidence-based framework to enable assessment and comparison of digital health maturity models. This work will inform an approach to implementing a suitable suite of digital health maturity models. This is a critical step as healthcare evolves towards a digital health system focused on improving the quality of care, reducing costs and improving the provider and consumer experience.

ERP System for Digitalization of NGO Operations
Authors: Bhatt Yatharth
Published: December 2021

Abstract: This project is concerned with the digitalization of NGO operations and the entirety of its working operations including making of an ERP system which streamlines the working of the NGO. It includes the working of the NGO, the financial aspects. NGOs face a multitude of issues when it comes to management and those issues include, tracking volunteer activity, financial transparency, volunteer id database etc. The above problems have been identified with a substantial survey of people working in such organization and our own personal experience. Manual processes and unwieldy amounts of knowledge are the norms for several non-profits, which makes human error and security oversights more likely. Subsequent surveys are conducted about these problems. Hence, we can discuss on improving on these problems and completion of a fully working website with its implementation concluding a better system and digitalization of the NGO program.

Published: December 2021

As sementes são essenciais para a manutenção da diversidade biológica. No Brasil, a prática de seleção, guarda e plantio de sementes é um traço cultural identitário de muitas comunidades tradicionais do campo. Nestes contextos, as sementes crioulas, em suas múltiplas denominações, fazem parte de um amplo repertório de conhecimentos relacionados a tradicionais práticas sociais, perfazendo ainda um patrimônio genético e símbolo cultural de resistência. Na perspectiva da integração de conhecimentos tradicionais no Ensino de Ciências, este artigo analisa a partir de pesquisa qualitativa sobre a própria prática docente, os pontos de articulação ou desarticulação da temática sementes crioulas aos conteúdos do Ensino de Ciências em um contexto de formação de professores para o campo. Discute-se a possibilidade de assumir, quando possível, aproximações e complementaridades entre os sistemas de conhecimento tradicional e científico no âmbito da temática sementes crioulas, e por outro lado reconhecer que há pontos de distanciamentos em que os sistemas de conhecimento caminharão em paralelo. Argumenta-se ainda que tais aproximações possibilitam o enriquecimento mútuo entre conhecimentos reduzindo a visão sobre os saberes tradicionais como algo exótico ou folclórico.

OBJECTIVE  To determine the overall survival (OS) and
prognostic factors influencing outcomes in children and adolescents with
malignant extracranial germ cell tumours (MEGCTs) in preparation for the
development of a harmonised national treatment
protocol.METHODS A retrospective folder review was undertaken
at nine South African paediatric oncology units to document patient
profiles, tumour and treatment-related data and outcomes for all
children with biopsy proven MEGCTs from birth up to and including 16
years of age. RESULTS Between 1 January 2000 and 31 December
2015, 218 patients were diagnosed with MEGCTs. Female sex (HR 0.284
p=0.037) and higher socio-economic status (SES) (HR 0.071; p=0.039) were
associated with a significantly lower risk of death. Advanced clinical
stage at diagnosis significantly affected 5-year OS: stage I -96%;
stage II - 94.3%; stage III -75.5%; (p=0.017) and stage IV (60.1%;
p<0.001). There was a significant association between earlier
stage at presentation and higher SES (p=0.03). Patients with a serum AFP
level of more than 33,000 ng/ml at diagnosis had significantly poorer
outcomes (p=0.002). The use of chemotherapy significantly improved
survival, irrespective of the regimen used
(p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS The cohort demonstrated a
5-year OS of 80.3% with an EFS of 75.3%. Stage, the use of
chemotherapy and an elevated serum AFP level of more than 33,000ng/ml
were independently predictive of outcome. The relationship between SES
and outcome is important as the implementation of the new national
protocol hopes to standardise care across the socio-economic divide.
The impact of lymphadenectomy on survival outcomes of ovarian clear cell carcinoma: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Liu Yan , Huang Changzhen , Chu Ran , Yang Xingsheng , Kong Beihua , Song Kun
Published: December 2021

Background: The treatment strategies for ovarian clear cell carcinoma
(OCCC) are the same as those for epithelial ovarian cancer. Due to the
rarity of OCCC, no prospective studies of its surgery have been
reported. Therefore, the therapeutic significance of lymphadenectomy for
OCCC needs to be further clarified. Objectives: To assess the
effectiveness of lymphadenectomy in patients with ovarian clear cell
carcinoma by a meta-analysis. Search Strategy: The Web of Science,
Scopus, PubMed, and other sources (e.g. Google Scholar) were searched
from each database’s earliest inception to June 2021. Selection
Criteria: English-language publications of observational studies that
investigated the role of lymphadenectomy in patients with OCCC were
included. Data Collection and Analysis: The pooled hazard ratio (HR) and
95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. Main Results: The
analysis demonstrated that lymphadenectomy is associated with
significantly improved disease-specific survival (DSS) (HR=0.76;
95%CI=0.60-0.95; P=0.02; I2= 0.0%) and disease-free survival (DFS)
(HR=0.58; 95%CI=0.33-1.00; P=0.05; I2=61%), but not for overall
survival (OS) (HR=0.80; 95%CI=0.60-1.06; P=0.12; I2= 19%) and
progression-free survival (PFS) (HR=0.95; 95%CI=0.64-1.42; P=0.79; I2=
0.0%). But it is worth noting that several single studies indicated a
tendency of improved OS, PFS, DFS, DSS with lymphadenectomy.
Conclusions: Lymphadenectomy could not significantly improve OS and PFS
for OCCC, but is associated with improved DFS and DSS. Gynecologic
oncologists should tailor treatment to patients to achieve optimal
outcomes. And further studies are necessary to validate the impact of
lymphadenectomy on OCCC. Keywords: ovarian clear cell carcinoma,
lymphadenectomy, survival, systematic review, meta- analysis
Development and Validation of a QTc-Prolongation Risk Score to Optimize Interruptive Medication Alerts
Authors: Aboujaoude Emily , Mathew Jesni , Sobocinski Stacey , Villanueva Mara , Feng Chun
Published: December 2021

Introduction: Drug-drug interaction (DDI) warnings are employed in many
institutions when more than one QTc-prolonging medication is prescribed;
however, this leads to alert fatigue where alerts are frequently
overridden by clinicians due to patient non-specificity or low risk.
This study aimed at reducing alert fatigue through developing a custom
alert triggered by a patient-specific QTc-prolongation risk score, and
validating it against database-driven DDI warnings for QTc prolongation.
Methods and Results: Between November 23, 2019 and January 31, 2020,
inpatients with a baseline and a follow-up 12-lead ECG reading within 14
days were identified. Each time a QTc-prolonging medication order was
signed or verified, the QTc-prolongation risk score was calculated in
the electronic health record (EHR), triggering a custom alert in the
background. Follow-up 12-lead ECG readings were used to calculate
sensitivity and specificity for both the custom alert and the DDI
warning. A total of 100 patients had a risk score calculation and were
included in our analysis, representing 521 custom alerts and 449 DDI
warnings. The preliminary QTc-prolongation risk score did not achieve a
reduction in false positive alerts with a cutoff of 10 points. A
multiple logistic regression was performed to re-arrange the components
and optimize the risk score. Conclusion: Our adjusted QTc-prolongation
risk score, with a cutoff of 5 points, achieved a specificity of 66%
and a negative predictive value of 83%. These results will allow us to
integrate the risk score into the EHR as a guidance tool to predict
QTc-prolongation.

A diverse Miocene fish assemblage (Chondrichthyes and Osteichthyes) from the Pécs-Danitzpuszta sand pit (Mecsek Mts, Hungary)

Published: December 2021

Chondrichthyans and osteichthyans are widely reported from marine sediments of the Central Paratethys, not only by sporadic occurrences, but also by complex, diverse fish assemblages. Here we present a rich fish fauna from the upper Miocene (Pannonian, Tortonian) lacustrine sediments exposed in the Pécs-Danitzpuszta sand pit, in the SW Pannonian Basin. Altogether 22 227 specimens were investigated, and they could be classified into 17 chondrichthyan and 16 osteichthyan taxa. Among the chondrichthyans Odontaspididae (55.51%) and Myliobatidae (14.4%) are the most abundant, while the bony fishes are dominated by the Sparidae (77.07%). The limonitic, yellow, coarse-grained, gravelly sands yielded an extremely large amount of isolated fish fossils. A considerable part of the vertebrate material of the sands is likely reworked from older, middle Miocene (Badenian and Sarmatian, i.e. Langhian and Serravallian) sediments. The late Miocene calcareous marls underlying the sands also yielded a variety of fish remains. From these remains, associated and articulated latid bones are coeval with the sediment and suggest freshwater and brackish conditions in the area, in accord with other biotic data. Other, isolated fossils, namely teeth, otoliths, cycloid scales and jaw elements of Gadidae, Gobiidae, Sparidae and Latidae could be reworked and thus have a very limited paleoecological significance. Based on habitat preferences of extant relatives, all chondrichthyans and most osteichthyan taxa found in the sands must be of Badenian origin. The abundant remains allow for some conclusions on the environmental conditions during the Badenian. They refer to a shallow, coastal environment with tropical-subtropical climate with connection to more open water habitats. Remains of some osteichthyan taxa were found in coprolites, showing that these taxa were part of the food chain as prey items. Sirenian ribs and odontocete limb bones bearing tooth marks refer to trophic relations between marine mammals and large sized macropredatory sharks. The Pécs-Danitzpuszta record of shark-attributed bite marks on bones of marine mammals is the second of the Badenian of the Central Paratethys. Acipenserids and latids of the sands, linked to brackish and/or freshwater environments, could originate from any Miocene stratigraphic units.
Applying Blockchain Technology to Security-Related Aspects of Electronic Healthcare Record Infrastructure
Authors: Adlam Ryno , Haskins Bertram
Published: December 2021

The centralised architecture employed by electronic health records (EHRs) may constitute a single point of failure. From the perspective of availability, an alternative cloud-based EHR infrastructure is effective and efficient. However, this increased availability has created challenges related to the security and privacy of patients’ medical records. The sensitive nature of EHRs attracts the attention of cyber-criminals. There has been a rise in the number of data breaches related to EHRs. The infrastructure used by EHRs does not assure the privacy and security of patients’ medical records. Features of blockchain platforms, such as decentralisation, immutability, auditability, and transparency, may provide a viable means of augmenting or improving services related to the security of EHRs. This study presents a series of experimental data flow configurations to test the application of blockchain technology to aspects of EHRs. The insights gained from these experiments are founded on a theoretical base to provide recommendations for applying blockchain technology to services related to the security of EHR infrastructure. These recommendations may be employed by developers when redesigning existing EHR systems or deploying new EHR systems.

An Analysis on Newly Introduced English Verb in Oxford English Dictionary in 2016-2018: Levin’s Taxonomy of Verb Classification and Verbnet
Authors: Zainuddin Kamilah , Hussein Noor Asmaa'
Published: December 2021

Levin (1993) argues that the behaviour of verbs is determined by word meaning which is directly linked to the expression and interpretation of its argument. Based on this statement, Levin classified verbs into 48 classes and VerbNet, an English verb lexicon was created based on the extension of Levin’s taxonomy of verb classification (VC). Therefore, this study presents the classification of the updated English verbs of 2016 to 2018 in the online version of the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) to examine the relevance of Levin’s VC and VerbNet in the recently added repertoire of verbs. In Addition, the study seeks to find out the new verb classes introduced in this study. This study uses a mixed-method to identify and classify the verbs. To conclude, this study found that both classifications were applicable and relevant in 14 new main verb classes introduced to classify the verbs that did not belong to Levin’s VC and VerbNet. Hence, this contributes to the body of knowledge as the newly introduced verb classes could be used based on the given semantic and syntactic conditions.

Numerical Assessment of a Sustainable Blast Protection Wall
Authors: Ghalib Ali , Hussein Assal
Published: December 2021

Terrorist attacks have increased in the past few years in different countries. Explosions are problem that has significant impact on human life, as well as the social and economic situations. Engineers have designed targeted structures to mitigate blast effects. However, design blast-resistant systems is pricey and not suitable choice in most cases. Therefore, install blast barriers to protect occupants and instructed can reduce casualties and losses. Most current studies have investigated the performance of multi-layer composite blast barriers composed of advanced materials, which is not only costly, but require skilled labour to construct. The present study conducts numerical analysis of eco-friendly composite blast protection wall to mitigate blast. The wall structure consists of two face-sheet of adobe brick and core layer of crushed recycled aggregate. The analysis framework includes three different blast wall models using ABAQUS®. The explosive charge of 1-kilogram TNT is placed at different standoff distances from 0.25 to 4.0 meter in front of the wall. The authors conclude sustainable materials to design blast barriers could be effective in reducing the intensity of explosions in certain blast scenarios. The thickness of the core layer and standoff distance have the main contribution to identify the blast response of the blast wall. For instance, the calculated out-of-plane displacement results showed when 1- kg TNT place at 0.5-m from the wall, and thickness of the core increases from 30-cm to 60-cm, the displacement decreases by 38.74%. While the acceleration decreases by 75% for the same range of increase of thickness of the core layer. The present study calls researchers to investigate the performance of low-cost, and environment-friendly materials to attenuate abnormal loads wether are man-made or natural hazards.

The construction of airport infrastructures usually consumes huge amount of energy. In fact, the airport buildings are among the largest energy consumers entities due to their huge size and special operation pattern as well as their unique configuration that facilitate the large number of accommodated passengers. Despite the local energy shortage in Iraq in the last two decades, there is a quite scarce number of researches that deal with sustainable airport buildings. The aim of this research is to analyze the terminal building in Baghdad International Airport in order to find out the best set of modifications that result in an optimal energy consumption and least carbon dioxide emissions. The analysis was conducted by the use of Building Information Modelling (BIM) technology and the associated programs such as; Auto desk Revit 2021 and Auto desk Insight 360, in order to determine the optimal strategies by which the most applicable alternative construction materials and procedures are considered in order to obtain an environmentally and economically sustainable airport terminal buildings. By applying this analysis on Nineveh terminal building in Baghdad International Airport revealed that many alternatives are capable of making tangible reduction in the Energy Use Intensity (EUI). Such reductions are noticed when altering, in the optimum manner, the windows configurations in terms of size, glazing type, and shadings. The alteration of construction materials for walls and roofs also reduces the EUI. It was also found out that the change in lighting control systems and lighting efficiency may reduce EUI. But the major impact could be resulted when altering the Heating/Ventilating/ Air conditioning Systems (HVAC) in the optimum manner which reduces the EUI by 67.15kw/m2/year, and the proper use of photovoltaic panels which provides a sustainable electricity and reduces EUI by 57.08 kWh/m2/year.  Accordingly; in the quest of the best procedure to develop a sustainable terminal building, it is highly recommended to alter the HVAC systems and the utilization of the photovoltaic panels on rooftops.

Authors: Salah Hassan Nabaa
Published: December 2021

The structural element within the whole structure contains structural elements like beams, slabs, columns and reinforced concrete walls. One of the most vertical structural elements is shear wall that built to giving stability to the building, resisting lateral force such as earthquake and wind and to reduce the building deformations.  In present study, the analysis of corrugated vertical steel plate shear walls using finite element method by ABAQUS software is examined. Four different modes are analysed in which the first model is vertical corrugated steel shear wall plate, second is the composite shear wall with full interaction, third is the composite shear wall and finally the fourth model is composite shear wall with gap between concrete panel and steel frame to check out the full performance of different shear wall under the effects of cyclic loadings. Displacement, drift and energy dissipation will investigate throughout analysis.  Analysis results indicated that the gap and composite action between steel and concrete panel play an important role on the performance of shear wall under cyclic loading. The decrease in displacement of composite shear wall as compared with the steel shear wall reach 11.86%.

Jacobsthal numbers are a special case of numbers defined recursively by the second order linear relation and for these reasons they are also named as numbers of the Fibonacci type. They have many interpretations, representations and applications in distinct areas of mathematics. In this paper we present the Jacobsthal representation hybrinomials, i.e. polynomials, which are a generalization of Jacobsthal hybrid numbers.

Published: December 2021

In this article, we set up a new nonlinear dynamical system which is derived by combining logistic map and sine square map in Mann orbit (a two step feedback process) for ameliorating the stability performance of chaotic system and name it Standard Logistic Sine Square Map (SLSSM). The purpose of this paper is to study the whole dynamical behavior of the proposed map (SLSSM) through various introduced aspects consisting fixed point and stability analysis, time series representation, bifurcation diagram and Lyapunov exponent. Moreover, we show that our map is significantly superior than existing other one dimensional maps. We investigate that the chaotic and complex behavior of SLSSM can be controlled by selecting control parameters carefully. Also, the range of convergence and stability can be made to increase drastically. This new system (SLSSM) might be used to achieve better results in cryptography and to study chaos synchronization.

Let I be a homogeneous ideal in a polynomial ring S. In this paper, we extend the study of the asymptotic behavior of the minimum distance function δI
of I and give bounds for its stabilization point, rI
, when I is an F -pure or a square-free monomial ideal. These bounds are related with the dimension and the Castelnuovo–Mumford regularity of I.
КОМПЛЕКСНЫЙ АНАЛИЗ СОСТОЯНИЯ РЕГИОНАЛЬНОЙ СОЦИО-ЭКОЛОГО-ЭКОНОМИЧЕСКОЙ СИСТЕМЫ (НА ПРИМЕРЕ НИЖЕГОРОДСКОЙ ОБЛАСТИ)

In order to assess the state of affairs in a region with account for the economic, socio-demographic and environmental aspects, to find out the causes of backwardness, and to work out ameliorating measures, it is reasonable to regard each administrative-territorial unit (ATU) as an integral socio-environmentally-economic system (SEES). ATUs in the Nizhegorodskaya Oblast were chosen to evaluate the suggested approach to integral analysis of SEES conditions and developmental degree. The approach implies calculating the values of the generalized desirability function (GDF) and their assessment using principal components and SWOT analyses. The calculated GDF values for the years 2016–2018 made it possible to distinguish leaders and outsiders among ATUs. Among all ATUs, 78% fall into the two lower classes of GDF gradation, which means that conditions are poor there. The results were confirmed by statistical analysis and were interpreted analytically using SWOT analysis. The suggested methodology makes it possible to distinguish “pain spots” and “points of increase” and correct decision making aimed to promote sustainable development at a regional level.
Non-Darcian-Bènard Double Diffusive Magneto-Marangoni Convection in a Two Layer System with Constant Heat Source/Sink
Authors: Manjunatha N. , Sumithra R.
Published: December 2021

The problem of non-Darcian-Bènard double diffusive magneto-Marangoni convection   is considered in a horizontal infinite two layer system. The system consists of a two-component fluid layer placed above a porous layer, saturated with the same fluid with a constant heat sources/sink in both the layers, in the presence of a vertical magnetic field.   The lower porous layer is bounded by rigid boundary, while the upper boundary of the fluid region is free with the presence of Marangoni effects.  The system of ordinary differential equations obtained after normal mode analysis is solved in a closed form for the eigenvalue and the Thermal Marangoni Number (TMN) for two cases of Thermal Boundary Combinations (TBC); these are type (i) Adiabatic-Adiabatic and type (ii) Adiabatic-Isothermal.  The corresponding two TMNs   are obtained and the impacts of the porous parameter, solute Marangoni number, modified internal Rayleigh numbers, viscosity ratio, and the diffusivity ratios on the non-Darcian-Bènard double diffusive magneto - Marangoni convection are studied in detail.

Published: December 2021

Background: Drug provocation test (DPT) without skin tests is increasingly recommended in the evaluation of children with low-risk beta-lactam (BL) allergies. However, risk definitions are unclear. Objective: The aim of this study was to compose a clinical
predictive model that could identify the children at low risk who could safely undergo direct DPT. Methods: The clinical data of 204 children who underwent a full diagnostic algorithm for suspected BL allergy were analyzed. Clinical data were used to construct mathematical
predictive model for confirmed BL allergies. A prospective new sample was used for external validation of the final model. Results: The presentations during the index reaction were anaphylaxis in 5.9% and cutaneous reactions in the majority. BL allergy was confirmed in
15.7% of suspected cases. A backward multiple logistic regression model showed that a family history of drug allergy (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 5.52), anaphylaxis (aOR, 5.14), any atopic disease other than asthma (aOR, 4.38), and a reaction interval of 0‐6 hours during the index reaction
(aOR, 5.32) were significantly associated with a confirmed BL allergy. A mathematical combined model based on these factors showed a sensitivity of 77.8% and a negative predictive value (NPV) of 94.3%. The validation study replicated sensitivity and NPV values of the main cohort.
Conclusion: The risk definition in BL allergies should depend on population-specific predictive models, including a combination of significant risk factors rather than empiric risk approaches. This may help to accurately determinate children at low risk who may safely proceed to
direct DPT.

Background:There are conflicting data with regard to the impact of respiratory and allergic comorbidities on the course of novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in children.Objective:This study aimed to investigate the relationship between allergic diseases and COVID-19 severity in pediatric patients.Methods:Seventy-five pediatric patients with COVID-19 were classified according to clinical severity and evaluated in the allergy/immunology and pulmonology departments 1 to 3 months after the infection resolved. Blood was collected from the patients for a complete blood cell count and assessment of immunoglobulin and total immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels, and skin-prick tests and spirometry tests were performed.Results:A total of 75 patients ages 5‐18 years were evaluated. COVID-19 was asymptomatic/mild in 44 patients and moderate/severe/critical in 31 patients. Based on allergy evaluation, allergic rhinitis was diagnosed in 19 patients (25.3%), asthma in 10 patients (13%), and atopic dermatitis in 3 patients (4%). Aeroallergen sensitivity was detected in 26 patients (34.7%). COVID-19 infection was asymptomatic/mild in 15 patients with allergic rhinitis (78.9%) and in 21 with aeroallergen sensitivity (80.8%) (p = 0.038 and p = 0.005, respectively). There was no difference in severity between the patients with and without asthma (p = 0.550). The median (interquartile range) total IgE level was significantly higher in the asymptomatic/mild group (71.8 [30.7‐211.2]) (p = 0.015). There were no differences in terms of spirometry parameters.Conclusion:Aeroallergen sensitization and allergic rhinitis in children may be associated with a milder course of COVID-19. The knowledge that atopy is associated with less-severe COVID-19 outcomes in children may guide clinical risk classification.
