Prediction of Infection and Death Ratio of COVID-19 Virus in Turkey by Using Artificial Neural Network (ANN)
Authors: Çolak Andaç Batur 
Published: September 2020

Background:
For the first time in December 2019, as reported in the Wuhan city of China,
COVID-19 deadly virus spread rapidly around the world and the first cases were seen in Turkey on
March 11, 2020. On the same day, a pandemic was declared by the World Health Organization due to
the rapid spread of the disease throughout the world.

Methods:
In this study, a multilayered perception feed-forward back propagation neural network has
been designed for predicting the spread and mortality rate of the COVID-19 virus in Turkey. COVID-19
data from six different countries were used in the design of the artificial neural network, which has 15
neurons in its hidden layer. 70% of these optimized data were used for training, 20% for validation, and
10% for testing.

Results:
The simulation results showed that the COVID-19 virus in Turkey, between day 20 and 37, was
the fastest to rise. The number of cases for the 20th day was predicted to be 13.845.

Conclusion:
As for the death rate, it was predicted that a rapid rise would start on the 20th day and a
slowdown around the 43rd day and progress towards the zero case point. The death rate for the 20th day
was predicted to be 170 and for the 43rd day it was 1,960s.
Artificial Intelligence for COVID-19: Rapid Review
Authors: Chen Jiayang , See Kay Choong 
Published: September 2020

Background
COVID-19 was first discovered in December 2019 and has since evolved into a pandemic.

Objective
To address this global health crisis, artificial intelligence (AI) has been deployed at various levels of the health care system. However, AI has both potential benefits and limitations. We therefore conducted a review of AI applications for COVID-19.

Methods
We performed an extensive search of the PubMed and EMBASE databases for COVID-19–related English-language studies published between December 1, 2019, and March 31, 2020. We supplemented the database search with reference list checks. A thematic analysis and narrative review of AI applications for COVID-19 was conducted.

Results
In total, 11 papers were included for review. AI was applied to COVID-19 in four areas: diagnosis, public health, clinical decision making, and therapeutics. We identified several limitations including insufficient data, omission of multimodal methods of AI-based assessment, delay in realization of benefits, poor internal/external validation, inability to be used by laypersons, inability to be used in resource-poor settings, presence of ethical pitfalls, and presence of legal barriers. AI could potentially be explored in four other areas: surveillance, combination with big data, operation of other core clinical services, and management of patients with COVID-19.

Conclusions
In view of the continuing increase in the number of cases, and given that multiple waves of infections may occur, there is a need for effective methods to help control the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite its shortcomings, AI holds the potential to greatly augment existing human efforts, which may otherwise be overwhelmed by high patient numbers.

Objetivo: analisar como as questões políticas (primeiros anos de mandato versus últimos anos de mandato) influenciam nos gastos públicos dos senadores.

Fundamento: Teoria dos Ciclos Políticos como elemento para analisar a influência do Mandato Eleitoral sobre os Gastos Públicos.

Método: O estudo se caracteriza como descritivo, com abordagem quantitativa do problema. Apresenta-se a amostra da pesquisa com 78 senadores, dividida em dois grupos: mandato um são os senadores da legislatura 2011-2018, 2/3 do total (52), e o mandato dois são os da legislatura 2015-2022, 1/3 do total (26). Foram realizadas Análises Descritivas, Correlações de Pearson e Parciais, Teste de Levene e Teste da estatística T para duas amostras independentes (Teste de Médias).

Resultados: Observa-se que a maior parte dos gastos públicos analisados não demonstram diferença significativa em relação ao mandato em que os senadores estão exercendo. Apesar dos senadores que exercem o primeiro mandato apresentarem maior média de gastos, para aluguel e serviços, estes dois gastos são significativamente maiores para os senadores que atuam no segundo mandato.

Contribuições: No âmbito de implicações teóricas, o estudo contribui com a literatura sobre ciclos políticos, abarcando os gastos públicos com senadores brasileiros, em específico ao analisar a diferença de gastos em relação aos senadores que estão no primeiro ou segundo mandato. Sob a ótica de implicações práticas, a pesquisa espera instigar o acompanhamento social da aplicação dos recursos públicos, em especial aos gastos executados por políticos e em específico, senadores.

Feeling GILTI: Tax Strategies for U.S. Multinational Corporations to Navigate the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
Authors: Bueltel Brett L. , Duxbury Andrew 
Published: September 2020

ABSTRACT
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act made significant changes to the U.S. taxation of foreign earnings. The most significant change is the 100 percent dividends-received deduction that generally applies to income earned by foreign subsidiaries. This represents a shift from U.S. tax deferral to U.S. tax exemption of foreign profits, which increases the potential benefit to shifting U.S. income to low-tax foreign jurisdictions. To limit this potential income shifting, Congress enacted new rules, known as GILTI, to supplement the already existing Subpart F rules. In this article, we briefly review the history of U.S. international tax policy and analyze the technical aspects of GILTI. We then discuss some general tax planning strategies and propose four specific tax strategies for companies to consider for minimizing the increased tax burden associated with GILTI. Last, we consider whether GILTI is good tax policy and make recommendations to improve the legislation.

Published: September 2020

OBJECTIVE
As diabetes technology use in youth increases worldwide, inequalities in access may exacerbate disparities in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). We hypothesized that an increasing gap in diabetes technology use by socioeconomic status (SES) would be associated with increased HbA1c disparities.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
Participants aged &lt;18 years with diabetes duration ≥1 year in the Type 1 Diabetes Exchange (T1DX, U.S., n = 16,457) and Diabetes Prospective Follow-up (DPV, Germany, n = 39,836) registries were categorized into lowest (Q1) to highest (Q5) SES quintiles. Multiple regression analyses compared the relationship of SES quintiles with diabetes technology use and HbA1c from 2010–2012 to 2016–2018.

RESULTS
HbA1c was higher in participants with lower SES (in 2010–2012 and 2016–2018, respectively: 8.0% and 7.8% in Q1 and 7.6% and 7.5% in Q5 for DPV; 9.0% and 9.3% in Q1 and 7.8% and 8.0% in Q5 for T1DX). For DPV, the association between SES and HbA1c did not change between the two time periods, whereas for T1DX, disparities in HbA1c by SES increased significantly (P &lt; 0.001). After adjusting for technology use, results for DPV did not change, whereas the increase in T1DX was no longer significant.

CONCLUSIONS
Although causal conclusions cannot be drawn, diabetes technology use is lowest and HbA1c is highest in those of the lowest SES quintile in the T1DX, and this difference for HbA1c broadened in the past decade. Associations of SES with technology use and HbA1c were weaker in the DPV registry.
Comparative Effectiveness of SGLT2 Inhibitors, GLP-1 Receptor Agonists, DPP-4 Inhibitors, and Sulfonylureas on Risk of Kidney Outcomes: Emulation of a Target Trial Using Health Care Databases
Authors: Xie Yan , Bowe Benjamin , Gibson Andrew K. , McGill Janet B. , Maddukuri Geetha , Yan Yan , Al-Aly Ziyad 
Published: September 2020

OBJECTIVE
To examine the comparative effectiveness of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1), dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP-4), and sulfonylureas on risk of kidney outcomes among people with type 2 diabetes.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
U.S. veterans initiated on SGLT2i (n = 18,544), GLP-1 (n = 23,711), DPP-4 (n = 39,399), or sulfonylureas (n = 134,904) were followed for up to 3 years to evaluate the risk of the composite outcome of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline &gt;50%, end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), or all-cause mortality. Risks were estimated using survival models adjusted for predefined covariates as well as covariates identified by a high-dimensional variable selection algorithm through application of generalized propensity scores.

RESULTS
Compared with those treated with sulfonylureas, treatment with SGLT2i, GLP-1, and DPP-4 was associated with a lower risk of the composite outcome (hazard ratio 0.68 [95% CI 0.63, 0.74], 0.72 [0.67, 0.77], and 0.90 [0.86, 0.95], respectively). While we did not observe a statistically significant difference in risk between the SGLT2i and GLP-1 arms (0.95 [0.87, 1.04]), both SGLT2i and GLP-1 had a lower risk of the composite outcome than DPP-4 (0.76 [0.70, 0.82] and 0.79 [0.74, 0.85], respectively). Analyses by eGFR category suggested that compared with the sulfonylurea arm, those in the SGLT2i and GLP-1 arms exhibited a lower risk of the composite outcome in all eGFR categories, including eGFR &lt;45 mL/min/1.73 m2. Compared with DPP-4, both SGLT2i and GLP-1 exhibited a reduced risk of the composite outcome in eGFR &lt;90 to ≥60, &lt;60 to ≥45, and &lt;45 mL/min/1.73 m2.

CONCLUSIONS
In type 2 diabetes, treatment with SGLT2i or GLP-1 compared with DPP-4 or sulfonylureas was associated with a lower risk of adverse kidney outcomes.

OBJECTIVE
To assess the use of a portable retinal camera in diabetic retinopathy (DR) screening in multiple settings and the presence of associated risk factors among children, adolescents, and young adults with type 1 diabetes.

DESIGN AND METHODS
Five hundred youth with type 1 diabetes of at least 1 year’s duration were recruited from clinics, diabetes camp, and a diabetes conference and underwent retinal imaging using a nonmydriatic fundus camera. Retinal characterization was performed remotely by a licensed ophthalmologist. Risk factors for DR development were evaluated by a patient-reported questionnaire and medical chart review.

RESULTS
Of the 500 recruited subjects aged 9–26 years (mean 14.9, SD 3.8), 10 cases of DR were identified (nine mild and one moderate nonproliferative DR) with 100% of images of gradable quality. The prevalence of DR was 2.04% (95% CI 0.78–3.29), at an average age of 20.2 years, with the youngest affected subject being 17.1 years of age. The rate of DR was higher, at 6.5%, with diabetes duration &gt;10 years (95% CI 0.86–12.12, P = 0.0002). In subjects with DR, the average duration of diabetes was 12.1 years (SD 4.6, range 6.2–20.0), and in a subgroup of clinic-only subjects (n = 114), elevated blood pressure in the year before screening was associated with DR (P = 0.0068).

CONCLUSION
This study in a large cohort of subjects with type 1 diabetes demonstrates that older adolescents and young adults (&gt;17 years) with longer disease duration (&gt;6 years) are at risk for DR development, and screening using a portable retinal camera is feasible in clinics and other locations. Recent elevated blood pressure was a risk factor in an analyzed subgroup.

El SARS-CoV-2 más conocido como COVID 19 ha evidenciado de forma radical como el sistema capitalista neoliberal, nos ha llevado a una serie de maquillajes de la realidad que no permitían ver la gravedad de su construcción de inequidad, pero lo que es peor, al convertir en una empresa rentable todo lo que toca, termino por desdibujar la democracia, la justicia, y el estado mismo. El presente texto que obedece al programa de investigación “proyecto 29-000029 Dinámicas urbano-regionales, economía solidaria y construcción de paz territorial en Antioquia” de UNAULA, para demostrar lo inicialmente planteado se procederá primero mostrando como el sistema de salud al ser convertido en un negocio, no tuvo capacidad para enfrentar la pandemia en ninguna parte del mundo, ello tuvo como consecuencia la parálisis de la economía mundial, pero adicionalmente genero un escenario perfecto para el encumbramiento de dictadores disfrazados de mesías, bien sea por el temor de los parlamentos a enfermarse o su cierre simbólico por su ausencia, eliminando de tajo la escasa democracia representativa, sumado a la parálisis de la justicia, además de la pobreza, el racismo, desigualdad y la estigmatización, que se vio controlada por la represión armada y la vigilancia que reino en el mundo y especialmente en Colombia con diferentes facetas.
