Published: September 2020

With the development of urbanization, the construction of the subway has been greatly developed. Meanwhile, the public concern of terrorist attacks on subway stations keeps driving the related research. In this paper, the representative subway station of Wuhan Metro Line 8, Mafangshan station, which is now under construction, is taken as a case, the dynamic finite element numerical simulation software ANSYS/LS-DYNA is employed to establish finite element model. The propagation law transmitting through the station structure and the dynamic response of the station under different TNT charges are analyzed. It is indicated that the propagation of shock wave is complicated due to the semi-closed environment of the station as well as the reflection and transmission of the stress wave in the structure. Specifically, in the station structure, the displacement of the platform plate was the largest, under the explosive action of different TNT charge, the displacement of platform plate is 13.6 mm (5 kg), 22. 8mm (10 kg), 35.2 mm (20 kg), 45.6 cm (30 kg), 68.8 cm (40 kg), respectively. The middle part of the pillar was the largest displacement on the pillar. Based on the dynamic stress response analysis of the station pillar, it shows that the maximum value of the stress value in the pillar is located at the junction of the pillar and the plate. Under the explosive action of 40 kg TNT charge, the maximum tensile stress of the junction of the pillar and the plate reached 45.1 MPa. Therefore, more attention should be paid to anti-explosion measures herein. Besides, through the analysis of the tensile stress value at the bottom of the pillar under different charge quantity, the TNT charge quantity for the crack at the bottom of the pillar is determined to be 6.77 kg by the formula fitting.

Abstract
Flood scaling theory is important for flood predictions in data-scarce regions but is often applied to quantile-based floods that have no physical mechanisms. In this study, we propose a framework for flood prediction in data-scarce regions by event-based flood scaling. After analyzing the factors controlling the flood scaling, flood events are first simulated by a hydrological model with different areally averaged rainfall events and curve number (CN) values as inputs, and the peak discharge of each subcatchment is obtained. Then, the flood scaling is analyzed according to the simulated peak discharge and subcatchment area. Accordingly, the relationship curves between the scaling exponent and the two explanatory factors (rainfall intensity and CN) can be drawn. Assuming that the flood and the corresponding rainfall event have the same frequency, the scaling exponent with a specific flood frequency can be interpolated from these curves.
Incidence of enterococci resistant to clinically relevant antibiotics in environmental waters and in reclaimed waters used for irrigation
Authors: Monteiro Silvia , Santos Ricardo 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
Treated wastewater discharged into the environment or reused in different activities can be a major vehicle for the transmission of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and antibiotic-resistance genes. In this study, environmental and wastewater samples, collected at different stages of treatment, were studied to identify the possibility of a positive selection of antibiotic-resistant organisms in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Enterococci were isolated, characterized into the main human species, and subjected to the Kirby–Bauer test using seven antibiotics (five classes): ampicillin, chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, linezolid, tetracycline, and vancomycin. Furthermore, vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), a major cause of nosocomial infection, was identified, and the genes vanA and vanB detected directly in the samples and in all confirmed VRE. Data showed that WWTPs were able to reduce the levels of antibiotic resistance, although 72% of the disinfected wastewaters still presented antibiotic-resistant enterococci. VRE were detected in 6% of the samples, including in reclaimed waters. UV disinfection was not effective at removing VRE and multiple antibiotic-resistant (MAR) enterococci, most commonly Enterococcus faecalis. The use of reclaimed water containing VRE and MAR enterococci in crop production, irrigation of urban gardens, and street cleaning increases immensely the potential risk to human health.
Experimental study on the adsorption of dissolved heavy metals by nano-hydroxyapatite
Authors: Zheng Yang , Zhang Jianmin 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
Bioretention system is an effective way to solve the problem of urban water environment pollution. In this paper, the difficulty of the existing biological retention system to effectively remove dissolved heavy metals was studied. By comparing the adsorption effect of acid quartz sand filler layers with nano-hydroxyapatite (N-HAP), medical stone, nano-carbon, and biochar, the conclusion is drawn from the static and cylinder dynamic experiments that N-HAP has the best effect of removing Cu2+ and Zn2+, and the effect is long lasting. The scanning electron microscopy results showed that the N-HAP particles were rough and the surface was more rod-shaped, which increased the specific surface area of the N-HAP particles, promoted the complexation and electrostatic interaction of the additives and heavy metal solutions, and facilitated the adsorption of heavy metals. The research results help to improve the technology of filler matrix modification.

Authors: Jia Mengmeng , Tang Jie , Xie Sumei , He Xiaokuo , Wang Yingmin , Liu Ting , Yan Tiebin , Li Kun 
Published: September 2020

Background
The International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) is a unified system of functioning terminology that has been used to develop electronic health records and assessment instruments. Its application has been limited, however, by its complex terminology, numerous categories, uncertain operationalization, and the training required to use it well. Together is a mobile health app designed to extend medical support to the families of spinal cord injury (SCI) patients in China. The app’s core framework is a set of only 31 ICF categories. The app also provides rating guidelines and automatically transforms routine assessment results to the terms of the ICF qualifiers.

Objective
The goal of the research is to examine the suitability of the ICF set used in the app Together for use as an instrument for assessing the functioning of SCI patients.

Methods
A cross-sectional study was conducted including 112 SCI patients recruited before discharge from four rehabilitation centers in China between May 2018 and October 2019. Nurses used the app to assess patient functioning in face-to-face interviews. The resulting data were then subjected to Rasch analysis.

Results
After deleting two categories (family relationships and socializing) and one personal factor (knowledge about spinal cord injury) that did not fit the Rasch model, the body functions and body structures, activities and participation, and contextual factors components of the ICF exhibited adequate fit to the Rasch model. All three demonstrated acceptable person separation indices. The 28 categories retained in the set were free of differential item functioning by gender, age, education level, or etiology.

Conclusions
Together overcomes some of the obstacles to practical application of the ICF. The app is a reliable assessment tool for assessing functioning after spinal cord injury.
Impact of Remote Titration Combined With Telemonitoring on the Optimization of Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy for Patients With Heart Failure: Internal Pilot of a Randomized Controlled Trial
Authors: Artanian Veronica , Ross Heather J , Rac Valeria E , O'Sullivan Mary , Brahmbhatt Darshan H , Seto Emily 
Published: September 2020

Background
To improve health outcomes in patients with heart failure, guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) should be optimized to target doses. However, GDMT remains underutilized, with less than 25% of patients receiving target doses in clinical practice. Telemonitoring could provide reliable and real-time physiological data for clinical decision support to facilitate remote GDMT titration.

Objective
This paper aims to present findings from an internal pilot study regarding the effectiveness of remote titration facilitated by telemonitoring.

Methods
A 2-arm randomized controlled pilot trial comparing remote titration versus standard care in a heart function clinic was conducted. Patients were randomized to undergo remote medication titration facilitated by data from a smartphone-based telemonitoring system or standard titration performed during clinic visits.

Results
A total of 42 patients with new-onset (10/42, 24%) and existing (32/42, 76%) heart failure and a mean age of 55.29 (SD 11.28) years were randomized between January and June 2019. Within 6 months of enrollment, 86% (18/21) of patients in the intervention group achieved optimal doses versus 48% (10/21) of patients in the control group. The median time to dose optimization was 11.0 weeks for the intervention group versus 18.8 weeks for the control group. The number of in-person visits in the intervention group was 54.5% lower than in the control group.

Conclusions
The results of this pilot study suggest that remote titration facilitated by telemonitoring has the potential to increase the proportion of patients who achieve optimal GDMT doses, decrease time to dose optimization, and reduce the number of clinic visits. Remote titration may facilitate optimal and efficient titration of patients with heart failure while reducing the burden for patients to attend in-person clinic visits.

Informing the Development of a Digital Health Platform Through Universal Points of Care: Qualitative Survey Study
Authors: Craven Michael P , Andrews Jacob A , Lang Alexandra R , Simblett Sara K , Bruce Stuart , Thorpe Sarah , Wykes Til , Morriss Richard , Hollis Chris ,   The RADAR-CNS Consortium
Published: September 2020

Background
Epilepsy, multiple sclerosis (MS), and depression are chronic conditions where technology holds potential in clinical monitoring and self-management. Over 5 years, the Remote Assessment of Disease and Relapse - Central Nervous System (RADAR-CNS) consortium has explored the application of remote measurement technology (RMT) to the management and self-management of patients in these clinical areas. The consortium is large and includes clinical and nonclinical researchers as well as a patient advisory board.

Objective
This formative development study aimed to understand how consortium members viewed the potential of RMT in epilepsy, MS, and depression.

Methods
In this qualitative survey study, we developed a methodological tool, universal points of care (UPOC), to gather views on the potential use, acceptance, and value of a novel RMT platform across 3 chronic conditions (MS, epilepsy, and depression). UPOC builds upon use case scenario methodology, using expert elicitation and analysis of care pathways to develop scenarios applicable across multiple conditions. After developing scenarios, we elicited views on the potential of RMT in these different scenarios through a survey administered to 28 subject matter experts, consisting of 16 health care practitioners; 5 health care services researchers; and 7 people with lived experience of MS, epilepsy, or depression. Survey results were analyzed thematically and using an existing framework of factors describing links between design and context.

Results
The survey elicited potential beneficial applications of the RADAR-CNS RMT system as well as patient, clinical, and nonclinical requirements of RMT across the 3 conditions of interest. Potential applications included recognition of early warning signs of relapse from subclinical signals for MS, seizure precipitant signals for epilepsy, and behavior change in depression. RMT was also thought to have the potential to overcome the problem of underreporting, which is especially problematic in epilepsy, and to allow the capture of secondary symptoms that are not generally collected in MS, such as mood.

Conclusions
Respondents suggested novel and unanticipated uses of RMT, including the use of RMT to detect emerging side effects of treatment, enable behavior change for sleep regulation and activity, and offer a way to include family and other carers in a care network, which could assist with goal setting. These suggestions, together with others from this and related work, will inform the development of the system for its eventual application in research and clinical practice. The UPOC methodology was effective in directing respondents to consider the value of health care technologies in condition-specific experiences of everyday life and working practice.

A study of the universal sequence in construction works
Authors: Karakozova Irina V. 
Published: September 2020

Introduction. The focus on transferring design information to experts, builders, building maintenance personnel, rather than on design in itself differs information modeling from computer-aided design (CAD) systems. The number of research papers focused on transformation of architectural and civil engineering constituents of projects into a sequence of construction and installation works is insufficient. This transformation requires methods of immediate correlation between elements and items of construction works, as well as the matching of on-site work performance schedules. The article addresses development of such a work performance sequence that will facilitate automated planning and scheduling of construction works using information modeling.
Materials and methods. A classification of construction and installation works, resources and elements must encompass principal construction-related notions. However foreign classifiers, used in building information modelling (BIM), frequently fail to comprise notions, technologies and techniques widely spread in the Russian construction industry. For example, such OmniClass sections as “Products” and “Work Results” have about 7 thousand entries each, while the Russian classifier of construction resources has in excess of 120 entries, and the number of versatile regulatory standards that apply to types of works is close to 180 thousand. Having analyzed the legal framework, the author identifies domestic technical rules and regulations that contain information on design and survey, construction and assembly, commissioning, renovation, maintenance and operation of buildings, structures and process equipment.
Results. The author synthesized information on technical rules and regulations and developed an overall sequence of versatile processes that comprise the life cycle of a building (a structure). The author proved that actual labour costs slightly differ from itemized standard labour inputs.
Conclusions. The list of work items, broken down by priorities by the author, enables automated work scheduling based on the list of elements and building constructions. In some cases, a designer can modify the sequence by rescheduling particular work items or adding a work cluster. Further, a dictionary must be compiled to enable identification of particular construction processes on the basis of a set of parameters of a structural element.

Se describe que la música contiene una influencia explícita y directa sobre los procesos afectivos, cognitivos y conductuales en los deportistas, que permiten ajustar la motivación y la emoción, así como reducir el esfuerzo percibido, acrecentar la cantidad de ejercicio realizado, focalizar la atención y mejorar la recuperación posejercicio. En el trabajo se señalan las ventajas y también las posibles desventajas y las limitaciones del uso de la música en el deporte. Se constató que la música es un elemento importante en la regulación de los estados emocionales previos a las competencias. Los resultados muestran la complejidad de los métodos de selección de la música y los relacionados para evaluar sus repercusiones. Adicionalmente, sugieren que se requiere un modelo teórico que resuelva las contradicciones sobre las tendencias del empleo de la música en el deporte. Finalmente, también demuestran que se ha estudiado poco sobre temas como el uso de la música acompañada de otras intervenciones psicológicas, el efecto de la letra de las canciones y las consecuencias de la música sobre el desempeño deportivo al combinarla con tareas adicionales de la musicoterapia. Abstract:This article is a theoretical review. It is intended to present the ways of using music as an intervention in psychological preparation for sports competitions. Music is described as holding an explicit and direct influence on affective, cognitive and behavioral processes in athletes. It allows regulation of motivation and emotion, reduces perceived exertion, increases the amount of exercise performed, focuses the attention and improves recovery after exercise. The paper points out the advantages, possible disadvantages and limitations to the use of music in sports. It was found that music is an important element for regulation of emotional states before competitions. The results show the complexity of the methods for selecting music, as well as the instruments for assessing their impact. Additionally, they suggest that a theoretical model is required to resolve the contradictions in music use trends in sports. Finally, it also demonstrates that some topics have hitherto been poorly investigated. These subjects are the use of music in combination with other psychological interventions, the effect of song lyrics and the consequences of music on athletic performance when combined with additional tasks related to music therapy.
