Perceptions of Pregnant Women Contributing to Late Initiation in Antenatal Care during the First Trimester in the Ubungo Municipal Council in Tanzania
Authors: Kristoamani Julieth , Mahiti Gladys Reuben 
Published: December 2020

Antenatal care serves as a key entry point for a pregnant woman to receive a broad range of services and should be initiated at the onset of pregnancy. The World Health Organization recommends for the first antenatal visits to be before 12 weeks of gestation. However, many pregnant women due to various reasons attend first antenatal care services very late and little information is known on why pregnant women delay initiating antenatal care clinics during the first trimester. This study aimed to explore the perceptions of pregnant women contributing to the late initiation of antenatal care during the first trimester Ubungo Municipal Council.
The study used purposive sampling to recruit thirty pregnant women for data collection through individual in-depth interviews. Pregnant women who attended antenatal care were recruited during antenatal care clinics and were interviewed in a room at the antenatal care unit. An in-depth interview was conducted with 30 pregnant women. Data were analyzed using thematic coding analysis.
The finding of this study indicates that, lack of awareness on the appropriate time to start antenatal care first visit, pregnancy as a normal health condition which does not require health personnel attention, late identification of the pregnancy, transport cost and service cost as a barrier due to low income, long waiting hours at the facility, lack of support from the spouse and men’s working time table were major factors which pregnant women perceive to contribute late initiation in the antenatal care during the first trimester.
Results conclude that, community awareness-raising and training on the significance of early antenatal clinic (ANC) visits are needed. Stakeholders should also address factors affecting facility and service levels such as high service costs and long waiting times at healthcare facilities.

Introduction: While multiple vaccines are undergoing clinical trial across the globe, we yearn for an FDA approved drug to protect us from the devastating pandemic for the time being. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Ivermectin when administered as pre-exposure prophylaxis for COVID-19.
Method: An observational study, with 118 healthcare providers who were enrolled purposively, was conducted in a tertiary hospital in Dhaka from May 2020 to August 2020. The subjects were divided into experimental and control groups; and the experimental group received an oral monthly dose of Ivermectin 12mg for 4 months. Both groups were exposed to COVID-19 positive patients admitted in the hospital during the course of study. The symptomatic subjects were evaluated by physical examination, COVID-19 RT-PCR and/or HRCT of chest. Differences between the variables were determined using the Chi-square test and the level of statistical significance was reached when p<0.05.
Result: 73.3% (44 out of 60) subjects in control group were positive for COVID-19, whereas only 6.9% (4 out of 58) of the experimental group were diagnosed with COVID-19 (p-value < 0.05).
Conclusion: Ivermectin, an FDA-approved, safe, cheap and widely available drug, should be subjected to large-scale trials all over the world to ascertain its effectiveness as pre-exposure prophylaxis for COVID-19.
Impact of Women Empowerment on Infant Mortality Rate – Spatial Lag and Error Regression Model
Authors: Gill Kanwal Preet K. , Devgun Priyanka , Kaur Amanpreet 
Published: December 2020

Background: Despite significant progress in recent decade, the burden of infant mortality in India remains high. As women is the main caregiver to the infant, women empowerment may be the important determinant of infant mortality rate which has received little attention. Therefore, the current study was planned to study the impact of women empowerment on infant mortality and to find the best fit regression model to predict infant mortality rate in various states of India.
Methods: The National Family Health Survey (NFHS) 2015-16 data was used and infant mortality rate in various states and union territories of India was mapped. Regression analysis was performed with infant mortality rate as the dependent variable. The exploratory variables (Percentages) used for women empowerment were the literacy among women, women who opted for institutional delivery, women owning a house and/or land (alone or jointly with others), women having a bank or saving account and women having mobile phone that they themselves used. Ordinary Least Square Regression and spatial lag and error regression models were applied. Infant mortality rates predicted by using the best fit model were mapped.
Results: Institutional delivery, owning a bank account and availability of personal mobile phone showed statistically significant inverse relation with infant mortality rate. Out of three regression models, spatial lag regression model was found to be the best fit model to predict infant mortality rate. The northern and eastern states were predicted to have highest infant mortality rate.
Conclusion: As northern and eastern states were predicted to have highest infant mortality rate, further studies at individual level may be planned to find out the factors in these regions.

Published: December 2020

Donnai-Barrow syndrome is an autosomal recessive disease due to mutations in the LRP2 gene described by Donnai and Barrow in 1993. We report through this clinical case the various ophthalmologic and extraocular manifestations of Donnai Barrow syndrome which remains a very rare congenital malformation. High myopia is a risk factor for severe amblyopia and/or retinal detachment which requires a regular monitoring.
The management of this disabling disease is multidisciplinary, involving the ophthalmologist, the otorhinolaryngologist, the pediatrician and the psychiatrist.

Published: December 2020

The analytical solutions of the radial D-dimensional Schrödinger equation for the Yukawa potential plus spin-orbit and Coulomb interaction terms are presented within the framework of the Nikiforov-Uvarov method by using the Greene-Aldrich approximation scheme to the centrifugal barrier. The energy eigenvalues obtained are employed to calculate the single-energy spectrum of ⁵⁶Ni and ¹¹⁶Sn for distinct quantum states. We have also obtained corresponding normalized wave functions for the magic nuclei manifested in terms of Jacobi polynomials. However, the energy spectrum without Spin-orbit and Coulomb interaction terms precisely matches the quantum mechanical system of the Yukawa potential field at any arbitrary state.

Published: December 2020

Research background: Covid-19 pandemic had a strong impact on the economy and capital market. In times of crisis, it is important for investors to be able to diversify their investment portfolio in order to mitigate risk. However, the growing trend towards capital market integration may make it ineffective. Research on financial integration, during the Covid-19 period, has started to develop, mainly in major global capital markets. It is, therefore, important to extend this research to other capital markets.
The purpose of the article: This contribution aims to analyze financial integration in the stock indexes of the capital markets of Austria (ATX), Slovenia (SBITOP), Hungary (BUDAPEST SE), Lithuania (OMX VILNIUS), Poland (WIG), the Czech Republic (PX PRAGUE), Russia (MOEX) and Serbia (BELEX 15), in the context of the global pandemic (COVID-19).
Methods: To measure the unit roots in the time series, we used ADF, PP, and KPSS tests, and Clemente et al. (1998) test to detect structural breaks. To ana-lyse financial integration, we applied the Gregory and Hansen integration test, and to validate the robustness of results, we use the impulse-response function (IRF) methodology, with Monte Carlo simulations, as they provide a dynamic analysis generated from the VAR model estimates.
Findings & Value added: The results suggest very significant levels of integration, which decreases the chances of portfolio diversification in the long-term. Evidence shows 47 pairs of integrated stock market indexes (out of 56 possible). The stock indexes ATX, BUDAPESTE SE, BELEX 15 show financial integration with all other indexes. On the contrary, the index of OMX VILNIUS shows only 3 integrations. Results also show that most of the significant structural breaks occurred in March 2020. The analysis of the relationship between markets, in the short term, shows positive/negative co-movements, with statis-tical significance and with a persistence longer than one week.

Published: December 2020

Research background: The identification of smart specialisations should be based on information allowing the identification of resources and capital in the regions, which constitute the unique value of the area providing for the development of competitive advantages based on innovations and achievements in the research and development activities.
Purpose of the article: The key goal is to present the proposal to use an aggregate (synthetic) measure for the purpose of identifying regional development potentials and next the initial smart specialisations (RSS). This approach is particularly useful at the very initial stage of recognizing the potential in the region, and ? after some modifications ? may offer a useful tool for assembling the de-velopment of industries (services) in the region. The additional goals are: (1) to organize the knowledge regarding statistical approaches and selected methods to be used in the process of identifying initial smart specialisations in regions (RSS); (2) exemplification of the presented methodology for the initial regional smart specialisations (RSS) identification in voivodeships in Poland based on a multivariate approach.
Methods: Multivariate statistical analysis (MSA) methods are used in the identification procedure of initial regional smart specialisations (RSS), which allowed for performing the assessment in 4 areas: resources and capital; specialisation; development potential (dynamics); the involvement in research and development and innovative activities. They can also be extended with additional dimensions related to the cooperation of enterprises with social or environmental priorities.
Findings & Value added: The conducted procedure allowed identifying NACE rev. 2 divisions useful in determining development potentials in Polish regions and later the initial smart specialisations (RSS). The identified initial RSS for Polish voivodeships can be a starting point for building regional smart specialisations based on values supply chain or other premises. Due to the universal nature of the proposed methodology, it can be widely used at the level of subregions, regions and the EU countries.

The Cat Ba is one of the largest Islands offshore North Vietnam, which is characterized by an abundance of coral reefs in the East and Southeast of the island. The surface sediments are considered the basic elements for the coral ecosystem development. In this study, the authors present some new results studying pH, Eh, mineral composition, and grain size as the basic information for environmental assessment of this area. The results show that the pH value of the surface sediment varies from 6.90 to 8.09, with an average of 7.24 while the Eh value of the sediment ranges from -121.10 to -48.20mV, an average of -68.39mV, demonstrating a reducing environment. The surface sediments have been classified into 8 size classes: the coarse silt > very coarse silt > medium sand, very fine sand > very coarse sand, fine sand > coarse sand, very fine gravel. Most of the sediments are poorly sorted - very poorly sorted, only a few sedimentary samples are well sorted, moderately sorted, and moderately well sorted. The average mineral composition of the surface sediments consists of: 25% quartz, 17% illite, 16% aragonite, 13% kaolinite, 10% calcite, 5% chlorite, 4% gothite, 3% halite, 2% feldspar and less montmorillonite, and dolomite. These results allowed the researcher to interpret that the sediments have been deposited in a relatively calm environment and the terrigenous sediment sources are dominant over the marine sources. Source marine sediment groups are characterized by coarse grains, high pH, and are rich in carbonate minerals, which have been produced by biological materials. In contrast, the terrigenous sediment group is dominated by fine-grained sediments, rich clay minerals, quartz, and gothite. These fine-grained sediments are commonly distributed in the area and are favorable places for pollutant accumulation.

Published: December 2020

The seismic properties of Root Mean Square Amplitude, Maximum Amplitude, and Sum of Positive Amplitude most clearly reflect the distribution characteristics of middle Miocene carbonate sediments in ​​block 04-3, Nam Con Son basin. Middle Miocene carbonate is commonly distributed on both reflection surfaces of P1 and P2. Within each reflective surface, carbonate sediments are concentrated around the uplifting zones, such as structures of Thien Ung - Mang Cau, Dai Hung and Bo Cau. These are completely consistent with the results of the interpretation of well-log data of Vietsovpetro, VSP [1]. The wells C-2X and C-4X located at the edge of the uplifting zone should have the thickest carbonates. According to the results of amplitude attribute analysis, these wells are distributed in the high concentration area of carbonate formations. Meanwhile well C-1X and well C-3X, which are near the top of the uplifting zone and further away from the uplifting structure have thin carbonate set and belongs to a low carbonate density area.

Objetivo: Analisar as repercussões da deficiência de ferro durante a gestação e no puerpério para o binômio materno-fetal, bem como destacar a intervenção do enfermeiro frente à problemática. Revisão Bibliográfica: Deficiência de ferro em gestantes tem consequências relevantes que culminam na anemia gestacional prejudicando assim a saúde materna, acarretando prejuízos no desenvolvimento e crescimento fetal e podendo levar a perdas sanguíneas agudas no pós parto, levando a consequências irreversíveis para ambos, sendo assim, é necessário que haja uma identificação precoce da deficiência deste micronutriente na gestante, para que se possa montar estratégias de intervenção nutricional ou medicamentosa, promovendo níveis adequados dos mesmos, melhorando o prognóstico gravídico junto a gestante. O enfermeiro é fundamental para o acompanhamento e desenvolvimento de uma gestação saudável, pois deve enfatizar, priorizar e orientar as recomendações passadas pelo médico, bem como reforçar e esclarecer sobre as boas práticas alimentares, e estilo de vida adequado, para assim evitar intercorrência e garantir uma gestação sem complicações. Considerações Finais: A carência de ferro durante a gestação e puerpério para o binômio materno-fetal causa severas sequelas no desenvolvimento e crescimento fetal, além de prejudicar a saúde da mãe, podendo levar a consequências irreversíveis para ambos.

Pět přístupů k etice sexuality? Důsledky asymetrického argumentu Davida Benatara pro etiku pohlavního chování
Authors: Koumar Jan 
Published: December 2020

Tato práce se zabývá možnými přístupy k etice sexuality, jejich klady i zápory. Etikou sexuality zde není míněno moralizování, stejně tak sexualitou není míněn pouze koitus, pohlavní chování je zde míněno v širším významu tedy včetně rozlehlé oblasti lidského svádění, okolků či otálení. Popsány jsou čtyři klasické přístupy k etice sexuality: tradicionalistický, romantický, marxisticko-feministický a liberální, avšak uvážen je i přístup antinatalistický, který vyplývá z asymetrického argumentu Davida Benatara uveřejněného v jeho práci Nebýt či být. Benatarův antinatalizmus totiž vytváří etiku pohlavního chování, v níž pouze sex, který nevede k rozmnožení, může být morální. I když je tento pátý, antinatalistický přístup značně kontroverzní a zdaleka ne intuitivní, extrémnost jeho pozic se příliš neliší od tradicionalistického pohledu, v němž je morální pouze sex k rozmnožení vedoucí, tyto dva přístupy tak lze postavit do přímé opozice jako dvě krajní možnosti uvažování o etice pohlavního chování. Roli střední cesty v takovém řazení potom zaujme liberální přístup, který jako jediný etiku sexuality nevidí jako etiku odlišnou od jiných lidských činností.
Když dva dělají totéž: srovnávací tradiční rétorická analýza
Authors: Picha Marek 
Published: December 2020

Text porovnává přesvědčovací strategie využité ve velmi podobných politicky angažovaných videoklipech The Great Schlep a Přemluv bábu. Ukazuje, že přestože se klip Přemluv bábu od své americké předlohy zásadně neliší v obecné struktuře, deklarovaném cíli či motivické výbavě, v jiných persvazivně významných ohledech se původnímu klipu vzdaluje. Rozdíly jsou patrné zejména v odlišné konstrukci publika, v jiném situování mluvčích a v topickém výběru vyjádřeném jinými stylistickými prostředky.
