ABSTRACT
Military forces and the recreational industry rely on the repellent properties of permethrin-treated fabrics and N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide (deet)–based lotions to provide protection from disease vectors and hematophagous organisms. Concerns regarding efficacy have been raised as pyrethroid resistance becomes more common and recent publications present contradictory conclusions. In this preliminary study, consenting volunteers were exposed to pyrethroid-susceptible and pyrethroid-resistant Aedes aegypti strains while wearing sleeves of untreated or permethrin-treated army uniform fabric as well as with untreated or deet-treated exposed forearms. Deet was nearly 100% effective against both susceptible and resistant strains. However, permethrin treatment provided no significant protection against the resistant Puerto Rico strain relative to untreated control sleeves. These results confirm that pyrethroid-resistant vectors can negate the efficacy of permethrin-treated uniforms. Additional testing with resistant field strains is needed to better understand the risk to service members.

ABSTRACT
Herein we report the first recorded arrival of Aedes aegypti on Trindade Island, approximately 1,140 km from the Brazilian coast, posing potential health risks to the human inhabitants thereof. The collection of mosquitoes was done from August to October 2019 via an active search for adults, eggs, and larvae by surveying objects with accumulated water and implantation of 23 ovitraps in different regions of the island. As a result, we collected 33 adults of Ae. aegypti via active search inside buildings. A total of 433 eggs of Ae. aegypti were also obtained from the ovitraps, all of which subsequently reached the adult stage. No other species of Culicidae was found.

ABSTRACT
To improve detection and assessment of Aedes aegypti abundance, we investigated whether microhabitat factors of the location of autocidal gravid ovitraps (AGO traps) influenced captures of gravid females in 2 locations in southern Puerto Rico. One location had been under vector control for several years using mass AGO trapping (intervention site), where Ae. aegypti abundance was several times lower than in the other study site without mosquito control (nonintervention site). We observed 10 environmental factors describing trap microhabitat location, and monitored water volume and minimum, maximum, and average temperature in AGO traps. Air temperature, relative humidity, and rainfall were recorded at each site. We conducted a hot-spot analysis of AGO traps to understand whether trap captures were influenced by the local abundance of mosquitoes rather than or in addition to trap microhabitat factors. AGO traps were classified using a 2-step cluster analysis based on attributes of trap microhabitats, water temperature, and water volume. Captures of female Ae. aegypti in each cluster per site were compared between resulting clusters to determine whether trap microhabitat factors defining the clusters were associated with trap captures. Trap captures in both study sites were mostly correlated with captures in nearby traps regardless of trap microhabitat factors, possibly reflecting the influence of the spatial aggregation of mosquitoes coming from nearby aquatic habitats or the concentration of dispersing adults. These results indicated that AGO traps can be located at places that can be easily reached during periodic inspections, such as in front of houses, without much regard to local microhabitat conditions.

Published: October 2020

Objective: This study aimed to describe the perception of cultural competence (CC) among nurses of four Asian countries. Material and Methods: A descriptive qualitative study was carried out, including fourteen nurses for in-depth interviews and 63 nurses for 8 focus group discussions being purposively selected from four Asian countries. Data were analyzed based on content analysis. Results: The participants defined CC as similar to cultural care, and described their CC in four main themes: (1) caring focus for patients with different cultures, (2) valuing holistic care/ patient-centered nursing, (3) preparing for living with God or Buddha, and (4) considering the social norms and patient rights. Assessment of the patient’s cultural background and myths contrary to medicine, along with having professional nursing knowledge, skills, and experience were the components of CC. Conclusion: The participants have addressed their CC in providing culturally, congruent care with a universal, holistic, and empathetic approach. Nurses should be trained to develop skills in multicultural care and language and made aware of their patients’ cultural beliefs. Further, CC scales for nurses working in the selected, four Asian countries should be developed.

Published: October 2020

Research of issues related to financial leasing has occupied a prominent position in economic science since the mid-20th century in countries with market economies due to the growing role of financial capital and formation of the stock market. Due to its significance, the concept of financial rent was investigated in the context of the development of neoclassical economic theory, its modern modifications, as well as the management theory. Some issues of financial rent were developed within the classical theory - the concept of ideal capital markets. The issues of the nature and types of financial rent are covered from the standpoint of financial mathematics. Some scientists believe that financial rent is a type of economic rent, so it should be reflected in the accounting. Inadequate attention to rent significantly increases the risk of an uncertain estimate of the financial condition of enterprises, and affects the objectivity and efficiency of making managerial decisions. As a result, there is a need for the development of theoretical and methodological, organizational and practical provisions of rent accounting, which will allow forming comprehensive and reliable information for management of a business entity.

Published: October 2020

Recognition of criteria for all assets of an enterprise based on the study of normative and methodological documents were investigated and summarized in this article. The approaches to the criteria for recognition and depreciation of such objects of long-term assets as capital expenditures on land improvement and land use rights are explored. The depreciation charge for capital expenditures on land improvement should be carried out using the straight-line method, the method of reducing the residual value or cumulative, since the tax law does not use the method of accelerated reduction of residual value, and it is inappropriate to apply the production method of depreciation. Using the method of reducing the residual value or cumulative, will allow in the shortest possible time to accumulate depreciation deductions, keeping them from inflation depreciation. The straight-line method should be applied for the right to use a land plot because it is possible for use for the objects that were recognized as intangible assets. In accounting for monitoring the formation and use of depreciation deductions for reproduction of the above-mentioned objects of long-term assets, it is recommended for the calculation of the amounts to collect the required settlement information on accounts using the MS Excel table processor. The practical application of this table processor will simplify the calculation and promptness of providing information to investors, shareholders and others, and it will enable them to strategically approach the formation of depreciation policy of the enterprise.

Global issues of the modern world related to environmental pollution, climate change, military conflicts, epidemics, social inequality have recently exacerbated. The existence of these issues and the need for their solution affect the policies of countries, enterprises, as well as economic and social development. Society gradually begins to realize the need for responsibility towards the environment, to create the necessary conditions for sustainable development of the world. Due to these circumstances, financial mechanisms are needed to ensure sustainable economic development, social integration and economic interests. Socially responsible investment (SRI) is one of such mechanism that emerged as an independent branch of investment activity in the second half of the XX century. The authors analyze the features of SRI. In particular, the article analyzes the main trends of SRI both globally and in Ukraine, taking into account the hybrid war. The existing methods of quantitative and qualitative estimation of social investments of the enterprise have been investigated.

Published: October 2020

With the development of urbanization, the application of GIS technology is more and more extensive. This study mainly discusses the development of urban planning intelligent management information system based on GIS. To design and build a rule-detailed spatial data model, provide the physical model and the data model corresponding to the logical layer from top to bottom in all steps, based on the attribute information stored in the Geodatabase model. According to the parameters set, connect to the database through the Oracle Connection class. The defined query criteria are converted into SQL statements that are executed using the Oracle Command class. Multi-source data integration middleware integrates various data formats with a GIS software format conversion tool or direct reading tool and then uses the geometric encoding semantics of data dictionary to represent the integrated data of system data model after merging. Property queries use the interactive search function for properties and spatial information to query the land use index for a particular area of the chart. If there is a scene roaming request from the input device, the 3D scene needs to be adjusted according to the input. Display the scene effects of a 3D virtual demonstration on a computer monitor. Start the GIS management operation function to deal with the case, and realize the user’s management of the urban planning system function with the concept of stratification. Fuzzy recognition mode is applied to identify the degree of the environmental impact of eco-city planning. The impact of urban planning on the environment is H ≈ 0.11 (0.1 < H < 1), which meets the expected standard. The results show that the system demand evaluation designed in this study is good, and the overall operation of the system is relatively stable, which plays a promoting role in urban planning.

Published: October 2020

Objetivo: Analisar e comparar a atividade eletromiográfica (domínio temporal e espectral) dos músculos reto do abdome, oblíquo externo do abdome, oblíquo interno do abdome, eretor da espinha e multífido no exercício prancha ventral em superfície instável: bosu normal e invertido, durante 45 segundos de contração isométrica.
Método: Quinze voluntários, adultos jovens, saudáveis e fisicamente ativos (21.73 ± 1.31 anos, estatura 177.10 ± 3.90 cm; 74.27 ± 5.38 kg, e 10.97 ± 1.60 % gordura corporal), sem histórico de lombalgia. O sinal eletromiográfica foi analisado no domínio temporal e espectral em três etapas distintas em cada exercício: Início (ETAPA A: 5 a 10 segundos), meio (ETAPA B: 20 a 25 segundos) e fim (ETAPA C: 40 a 45 segundos) e normalizado pela contração isométrica voluntária máxima. Utilizou eletrodos de superfície diferenciais simples com ganho de 20 vezes. No tratamento estatístico foi aplicado teste ANOVA two-way, com post hoc de Sidak (p<0.05).
Resultados: Foi demonstrada similaridade na atividade eletromiográfica no domínio temporal de todos os músculos comparando bosu normal e invertido. Além disso, os resultados exibiram aumento da atividade eletromiográfica e redução da frequência mediana (slope negativo) durante as diferentes etapas em ambos os exercícios.
Conclusão: Devido à similaridade de atividade eletromiográfica, a escolha da utilização da bosu normal ou invertido não se difere para indivíduos treinados, entretanto, a escolha do tempo de 45 segundos é uma estratégia interessante para aumentar a atividade eletromiográfica dos músculos do core e trabalhar a resistência à fadiga muscular, fatores imprescindíveis para prevenção de lombalgia.

Relación entre la eco-intensidad y el espesor muscular del cuádriceps con la potencia de salto vertical en niños escolares: Una Prueba piloto.
Authors: Giraldo García Juan Carlos , Hernández Hernández María Elena 
Published: October 2020

Objetivo: Correlacionar la ecointensidad, el espesor muscular del recto femoral y el vasto intermedio (EVI) con la potencia del salto vertical y el porcentaje de fibras rápidas en niños en edad escolar.
Método: Se evaluaron 47 niños entre 6 y 10 años. La ecointensidad y el espesor del muslo anterior (recto femoral y vasto intermedio) fueron medidos usando una ecografía en modo-B. La potencia del salto vertical y el porcentaje de fibras rápidas fueron medidos por el salto vertical con contramovimiento y saltos continuos durante 15 segundos.
Resultados: La potencia del salto vertical tipo salto vertical con contramovimiento y el espesor del vasto intermedio longitudinal y transversal presentaron una moderada correlación (0.3644 y 0.3694, v.p.< 0.05). La prueba de X² de independencia (v.p. Fisher= 0.0236) muestra asociación entre la potencia del salto vertical con contramovimiento y el espesor del vasto intermedio longitudinal y transversal. El porcentaje de fibras rápidas y la diferencia entre la ecointensidad grasa menos la ecointensidad del recto femoral sumada a la del vasto intermedio indican una moderada correlación (0.3555, v.p. 0.0142). La prueba de X² de independencia (v.p. Fisher = 0.07003) no muestra asociación entre el porcentaje de fibras rápidas y la diferencia entre la ecointensidad grasa menos la ecointensidad del recto femoral sumada a la del vasto intermedio.
Conclusión: La evaluación ecográfica del músculo cuádriceps (específicamente recto femoral y vasto intermedio) puede ser una herramienta útil para evaluar el desempeño físico anaeróbico en niños escolares sanos.

Published: October 2020

Objetivo: Este estudio experimentó un protocolo de post-activación potenciación estimulada en 16 nadadores de competición.
Método: En primer lugar, se aplicaron ejercicios de acondicionamiento para extremidades superiores e inferiores y se exploraron los efectos producidos tras 5, 8, 12 y 20 minutos de descanso en un test que implicaba tres saltos verticales y tres flexiones explosivas. En una sesión posterior, se aplicaron ejercicios de acondicionamiento específico en ambas extremidades proporcionando el mismo tiempo de descanso que había inducido los mejores resultados en la evaluación exploratoria (8 min), y sus efectos se evaluaron en una prueba de natación sprint (50 m). Finalmente, también se obtuvo el índice de fuerza relativa de los participantes y se estudió su relación con el rendimiento.
Resultados: Las variables relacionadas con la salida de natación mejoraron. La velocidad en el despegue fue mayor debido al incremento de las fuerzas desarrolladas en el poyete. El tiempo de nado en la prueba de 50-m se mantuvo igual a la situación estándar aunque la velocidad fue mayor en los primeros metros.
Conclusiones: Los sujetos con mayor índice de fuerza obtuvieron mejores resultados y reaccionaron mejor a la post-activación potenciación estimulada posiblemente porque sus efectos son más efectivos en las fibras tipo II y estas, son más comunes en sujetos entrenados.

Published: October 2020

Objective: To quantify and compare the electromyographic activity of 10 muscles in three pullover exercises.
Methods: 15 healthy men, with at least two years of experience in resistance training, executed in random order six repetitions with 60% of 1 Maximum Repetition for three different pullover exercises: lying on a step with a barbell, grip 100% biacromial (E1); lying on a step with a barbell, grip 150% (E2); lying on a Swiss ball with a barbell, grip 100% (E3). Surface electromyography was recorded from the Deltoideus (Clavicular and Spinalis Pars), Pectoralis Major (Clavicular and Sternocostalis Pars), Serratus Anterior, Triceps Brachii (Long Head), Latissimus Dorsi, Infraspinatus, Rectus Abdominis, Obliquus Internus Abdominis and Transversus Abdominis. The normalized Maximum Repetition electromyographyc of each muscle was calculated for each exercise.
Results: The most engaged muscles were Infraspinatus (51-53%) and Posterior Deltoid (49-51%). Surface electromyography activity was similar between the E1, E2 and E3 exercises.
Conclusions: This study quantified muscular solicitation during pullover exercises performed with 60% Maximum Repetition. The muscles with higher level of activation were the Posterior Deltoid and the Infraspinatus, suggesting that pullover may be a valid option for strengthening the dynamic stabilizing muscles of shoulder joint in trained individuals. No significant differences in muscle electromyography intensity were observed when grip distance and trunk stabilization were altered, showing that these conditions do not influence muscle activation levels. However, the 1 Maximum Repetition was lower when the pullover was performed on a Swiss ball, suggesting that it is possible to obtain higher level of muscle recruitment with lower weights in unstable exercises.
