Technopolisation and metropolisation in Western Europe. Technological transfers and regional environment
Authors: Dezert Bernard 
Published: February 2020

In the regions of Western Europe, the capital cities, transactional poles, play a certain role in the development policies of new technologies and innovations. The technopolis or technoparks or scientific parks have been multiplied to favour research and development.
But all national and regional cities have well to be mark representation in organising a~ promotional urban planning and festivities and will be a continuous shop-window of its realisation. Technopolisation has been a partnership between local municipalities, builders , universities and research workers.The old manufacturing cities and metropolitan areas well provided in training and research centres fit well for a new technological cycle.
The proximity or distance of metropolis plays a role on employment conversion . But it's success requires a good working climate where workers make little claims. This requirement is unfair to the employment basins of preceding cycle with a strong tradition of workers' solidarity ; and gives preference to new towns over old cities.
The role of local environment is not negligible. The taking into account of mentalities is very important, as well as that of access to banking facilities in the regional capital and to all communications. Accordingly, it is necessary to take a global view of the environment to succeed in a lasting technopolisation.
Telecommunications and economic development. The role of local access networks in economic integration
Authors: Berlage Michael 
Published: February 2020

Telecommunications is a vital prerequisite for economic development in the countries of Eastern and Central Europe. So far, investment has concentrated on the international and trunk networks, whereas investment in the local networks, the most expensive part of the telecommunications infrastructure, is lagging behind Local networks are necessary for local development and the integration of the regions into the changing national economies as well as the integration into the world economy and the reorientation of external trade.
Some Eastern European countries are trying out new models for the development of local networks. They are often based on country-specific initiatives from the local or regional level. Their role as a model for other Eastern European countries is discussed with regard to their risks and chances . Taking the existing financial constraints for telecommunications operators into account, an innovative regulatory policy , such as it can be observed in many countries of the region is necessary in Eastern Europe despite or even because of the problems of the lack of "institutional capital". One of the main benefits in the regulatory strategies to be realised is the close link between regional economic initiatives and the investment into telecommunications.
Digital cities : public policies and the development of the intelligent metropolis
Authors: Corey Kenneth E. , Wilson Mark I. 
Published: February 2020

Analysis of information technology often is divided into two spheres that tend not to overlap, the engineering oriented application of hardware, and the social impact of new technology.
In contrast, cities represent concentrations of many social, economic, and political spheres that constantly overlap. The opportunities offered by information technology for exchange, interaction, and development bring together engineering and social forces. Thus, the benefits of new information technology also demand their successful integration into urban society. Merging complex technologies into complex social and economic environments is a challenge faced by many cities and metropolitan areas as they plan for the next millennium. The transition from analog to digital is an engineering challenge, and the digital city is an even greater social and policy challenge.
This paper addresses the rationale and structure of public policy designed to introduce and incorporate information technology into exciting and new cities. In particular, public policy initiatives in Southeast Asia and the U.S. are presented. The paper includes discussion of the information technology and telecommunication policies of Singapore, including the city-state’s technology corridors concept, and other urban and regionalization development strategies in Malaysia and the U.S.
Mobilité de quartier, mobilité de ville ? Les déplacements quotidiens des pauvres à Ouagadougou et Bamako

Neighborhood or city mobility ? The daily mobility of the poor in Ouagadougou and Bamako.
High rates of demographic growth, plus weak and irregular incomes are the main characteristics of urban populations in sub-Saharan Africa. The spatial development resulting from this situation has been rather uncontrolled and a double phenomenon has appeared, on the one hand, a high increase of population density in some zones and on the other hand a rapid and anarchical extension of urban space. Using data collected from two household surveys carried out in Bamako and Ouagadougou, the aim of this article is to analyse the daily mobility of the mostly disadvantaged urban populations by focusing on the localisation of urban spaces they go to. A typology of these poor populations reveals strongly differentiated behaviours, distinguishing old and young, men and women, central zone dwellers and peripheral area dwellers. To accomplish their different daily activities some must travel all through the city while others are confined within the area close to their home. Thus, the improvement of transport services does not have the same impact on the various groups of poor urban dwellers.

Abstract
Beam focusing is one of the most important elements for the stable and safe operation of high power negative ion beams, such as neutral beam injection into magnetically confined fusion plasmas. In order to investigate impacts of the source plasma fluctuation on beam focusing, a simultaneous measurement of the source plasma fluctuation and the beam current profile has been carried out in the research-and-development negative ion source at the National Institute for Fusion Science. The responses of beam width and of the beam centre deviation are observed for the first time, indicating the importance of the source plasma stability for the negative ion beam focusing.

Published: February 2020

Introduction: Postpartum depression (PPD) is a common disorder and a type of clinical depression that affects mothers during the first 4 weeks after childbirth. Considering the destructive effects of this disease on mothers' behavior, identifying the factors affecting PPDand using proper methods in normal delivery is important. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between regional anesthesia (RA) during labor and the incidence of PPDin women referred to hospitals affiliated to Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences.
Methodology: In this study, 200 pregnant women referred to hospitals of Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences during 2015 to 2017 entered into two equal groups, Group R, administered RA, and Group C; control group without RA according to their desire. Each group consisted of 100 parturients, and the two groups were compared for the incidence of PPD and the association of depression with RA during labor.
Results: Based on the obtained data, the participants in the two groups did not differ significantly in terms of age, body mass index (BMI), duration of delivery phases and depression in the first week of postpartum. However, the severity of pain in different phases of delivery was different due to the use of anesthetic for one of the groups. No significant relationship between RA and depression was observed in the first week after childbirth. However, RA has a significant relationship with PPD in the 4th week, so that the use of RA reduces the incidence of PPD in the 4th week (p = 0.066).
Conclusion: We conclude that the use of regional anesthesia will not have a significant effect on postpartum depression in the first week, but it reduces the incidence of postpartum depression in the 4th week after childbirth.

Two oral sedation regimens in pediatric dentistry: a randomized controlled trial
Authors: Hammadyeh Awj , Altinawi Mohamed , Rostom Faten 
Published: February 2020

Objectives: Dental procedures are always associated with some degree of anxiety, and children are usually more prone to it. General anesthesia may have to be used in more complex procedures, but many dental procedures can successfully be undertaken with therapeutic sedation. The aim of this trial was to evaluate the effectiveness of oral sedation using dexmedetomidine in comparison with ketamine in the management of uncooperative pediatric patients during dental treatment.
Methodology: A randomized clinical trial was carried out on 40 ASA physical status-I children aged 2-6 y to investigate the effect of using dexmedetomidine and ketamine with atropine for sedation.
The children were equally and randomly divided into two groups: Group K: received oral ketamine 5 mg/kg with atropine 0.01 mg/kg, and Group D: received oral dexmedetomidine 3 µg/kg. Recovery time, vital signs, and side effects were all recorded. Behavior rating was also assessed using the Ohio State University Behavioral Rating Scale (OSUBRS).
Results: The children in Group D were more sedated than in Group K, but the difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.22). The median recovery time was significantly shorter in Group D than in Group K (p = 0.003). No adverse effects, episodes of respiratory or cardiovascular instability were noted in either groups.
Conclusions: Oral dexmedetomidine is equally effective to oral ketamine for sedation in children undergoing outpatient dental procedures, but has relatively a shorter recovery time.

Comparison between intrathecal nalbuphine and butorphanol as adjuvants to isobaric ropivacaine in elective lower limb orthopedic surgeries: A prospective, randomized, double blind study
Authors: Nirmal Akash , Singh Yashpal , Mathur Sharad Kumar , Patel Satish 
Published: February 2020

Background: Intrathecal ropivacaine is now routinely used for lower limb surgery. Adjuvants e.g. fentanyl, dexmedetomidine or morphine etc. are commonly used to prolong the intraoperative anesthesia or postoperative analgesia. The available literature lacks information on use of butorphanol and nalbuphine as adjuvants with 0.75% isobaric ropivacaine. We aimed to compare nalbuphine and butorphanol as adjuvant with isobaric ropivacaine in lower limb orthopedic surgeries.
Methodology: After institutional ethical committee approval and informed written consent, a total of 108 patients of ages between 18 to 65 y, of either sex, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grade ӏ & ӏӏ, scheduled for elective lower limb orthopedic surgeries, were enrolled and randomly allocated into two groups: Group RN; to receive isobaric ropivacaine (0.75%, 7.5 mg/ml) 2.5 ml plus nalbuphine 500 µg (0.5 ml), and Group RB; to receive isobaric ropivacaine 2.5 ml plus butorphanol 100 µg (0.5 ml) intrathecally. Primary outcome measure was the duration of sensory‑motor blockade from the time of intrathecal drug administration. Statistical analysis was performed by using t-test and chi-square test as applicable. A p < 0.05 was considered as significant.
Results: Duration of sensory (p < 0.001) and motor blockade (p = 0.02) was significantly prolonged in nalbuphine group than butorphanol group. Onset of blockade was earlier in nalbuphine group. Duration of motor block and sensory analgesia was prolonged in group RN (p < 0.001). Perioperative hemodynamic parameters and the observed side effects including bradycardia, hypotension, nausea and vomiting, sedation and shivering were comparable between the two groups (p = 0.77).
Conclusion: Intrathecal nalbuphine produces prolonged motor blockade as well as postoperative analgesia than intrathecal butorphanol when used as adjuvants to isobaric 0.75% ropivacaine.

A case report of a complicated fatal percutaneous valve implantation
Authors: Sampaio Ana , Norte Gustavo , Godinho Liliane , Raimundo Ana , Cuervo Manuel 
Published: February 2020

Pulmonary valve dysfunction, also called right ventricle outflow tract dysfunction, is one of the known anomalies in patients with congenital heart disease. Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) has been developed as an alternative to surgical correction. Although it is largely considered a safe procedure, life-threatening complications can happen and institutions must be able to resolve these immediately and adequately.
We present a case of pulmonary valve migration to the right ventricle during a PPVI. This complication needed immediate cardiac surgery due to resulting hemodynamic instability. The percutaneous valve prosthesis was removed and a bioprosthetic valve was surgically implanted in the correct position.
This case emphasizes the need of prompt cardiac surgery support and the readiness of the anesthesia team to deal with emergency open cardiac surgery.

Regression is a statistical technique used to describe the relationship between response variables with one or more predictor variables. The development of classical regression analysis that is influenced by the effects of space or location of a region is called spatial regression analysis. The purpose of this study is to conduct Spatial Durbin Model (SDM) regression analysis for poverty modeling in East Java in 2017. Poverty is a classic problem that occurs in almost all countries and is multidimensional, which is related to social, economic, cultural and other aspects. In 2017, poverty in East Java declined compared to the previous year. Therefore it is necessary to identify the factors that influence poverty. The variables used are the percentage of poor people as the response variable (Y) and predictor variables including Education does not finish elementary school (X1), Literacy Rate age 15 -55 years (X2), informal sector workers (X3), unemployment rate open (X4), household users of land as the widest floor (X5), and households using improper sanitation (X6), and households using drinking water sources are not feasible (X7).

Regresi merupakan teknik statistik yang digunakan untuk menggambarkan hubungan antara variabel respon dengan satu atau lebih variabel prediktor. Pengembangan dari analisis regresi klasik yang dipengaruhi oleh efek ruang atau lokasi wilayah disebut analisis regresi spasial. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk melakukan analisis regresi Spatial Durbin Model (SDM) untuk pemodelan kemiskinan di Jawa Timur tahun 2017. Kemiskinan merupakan masalah klasik yang terjadi hampir diseluruh negara dan bersifat multidimensional, dimana berkaitan dengan aspek sosial, ekonomi, budaya dan aspek lainnya. Pada tahun 2017, kemiskinan di Jawa Timur mengalami penurunan jika dibandingkan dengan tahun sebelumnya. Oleh karena itu perlu dilakukan identifikasi faktor-faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap kemiskinan. Variabel yang digunakan yaitu persentase penduduk miskin sebagai variabel respon (Y) dan variabel prediktor antara lain Pendidikan tidak tamat SD (X1), Angka Melek Huruf (AHM) usia 15 -55 tahun (X2), pekerja sektor informal (X3), tingkat pengangguran terbuka (X4), rumah tangga pengguna tanah sebagai lantai terluas (X5), dan rumah tangga pengguna sanitasi tidak layak (X6), dan Rumah tangga pengguna sumber air minum tidak layak (X7).
