Authors: Dankoly Usman Sani , Vissers Dirk , El Farkouch Zainab , Kolasa Esther , Ziyyat Abderrahim , Rompaey Bart Van , Maamri Abdellatif 
Published: November 2020

Background::
The need for a multidisciplinary team approach to provide physical exercise,
diet, behavioral change, and insulin therapy in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) treatment has
long been recognized. However, often patients with T2DM do not have access to a multidisciplinary
team.

Introduction::
In developing countries, most patients with T2DM receive their diabetes care in the
office of an internist or family practice physician or in a primary level health center with a general
practitioner. Knowledge of healthcare professionals regarding the perceived barriers, attitudes, facilitators,
and benefits of a multidisciplinary team approach in T2DM treatment can help facilitate
the implementation of multidisciplinary care in T2DM.

Methods::
A systematic search strategy was performed in six databases (PubMed, Web of Science,
CINAHL, EMBASE, MEDLINE, and Cochrane) using different keyword combinations to identify
studies describing the healthcare professionals’ views of multidisciplinary team care in T2DM. A
textual narrative synthesis was used to analyze data. The Critical Appraisals Skills Programme
(CASP) tool for qualitative studies was used to assess the risk of bias and transferability.

Results::
The views of health professionals about multidisciplinary team care in T2DM were categorized
into six major factors, namely working collaboratively to foster supportive relationships;
strong committed organizational and team leadership; diversity in expertise, with team members
tailored to local circumstances; shared goals and approaches to ensure consistency of message;
clear and open communication with the team and with patients; and the patient at the center of decision-
making.

Conclusions::
There is a huge gap in shared roles among health professionals in T2DM therapy.
Hence, there is a need for allied health professionals such as physiotherapists, dieticians, and psychologists
with expertise in diabetes to explore primary healthcare, barriers and facilitators to the
successful integration of multidisciplinary team, seamlessly distributedinto three hierarchal levels,
namely health management, health professionals, and diabetic patients.

Published: November 2020

Background:
Establishing R, S-enantiomer (S-KT and R-KT) chiral resolution and determination
methods for KT are of great significance.

Objective:
This study aimed to establish a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)
method for the resolution and determination of ketorolac tromethamine (KT) enantiomers.

Methods:
A CHIRALPAK AGP column (0.4 × 10 cm, 5 μm) was used with 10 mmol/L ammonium
acetate (pH 5.5) and isopropanol (97:3) as the mobile phase. The detection wavelength was
324 nm, the flow rate was 1.0 mL/min, the column temperature was 25°C, and the injection volume
was 5 μL.

Results:
The resolution between S-KT and R-KT was 2.8. S-KT and R-KT demonstrated a good
linear relationship in the range of 3-60 μg/mL (r > 0.999). The average recoveries of S-KT and RKT
were 99.2% and 99.8%, with relative standard deviations of 2.0% and 2.4%, respectively.

Conclusion:
The established method can be used for the resolution and determination of S-KT and R-KT.
Health Care Providers’ Perceptions of Quality, Acceptance, and Satisfaction With Telebehavioral Health Services During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Survey-Based Study
Authors: Wright Jesse , Dewan Shyam , Hilty Donald , Dewan Naakesh A 
Published: November 2020

Background
Due to rapidly increasing rates of COVID-19 across the country, system-wide changes were needed to protect the health and safety of health care providers and consumers alike. Technology-based care has received buy-in from all participants, and the need for technological assistance has been prioritized.

Objective
The objective of this study was to determine the initial perceptions and experiences of interprofessional behavioral health providers about shifting from traditional face-to-face care to virtual technologies (telephonic and televideo) during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods
A survey-based study was performed at a large, integrated medical health care system in West-Central Florida that rapidly implemented primary care provision via telephone and televideo as of March 18, 2020. A 23-item anonymous survey based on a 7-point Likert scale was developed to determine health care providers’ perceptions about telephonic and televideo care. The survey took 10 minutes to complete and was administered to 280 professionals between April 27 and May 11, 2020.

Results
In all, 170 respondents completed the survey in entirety, among which 78.8% (134/170) of the respondents were female and primarily aged 36-55 years (89/170, 52.4%). A majority of the respondents were outpatient-based providers (159/170, 93.5%), including psychiatrists, therapists, counselors, and advanced practice nurses. Most of them (144/170, 84.7%) had used televideo for less than 1 year; they felt comfortable and satisfied with either telephonic or televideo mode and that they were able to meet the patients’ needs.

Conclusions
Our survey findings suggest that health care providers valued televideo visits equally or preferred them more than telephonic visits in the domains of quality of care, technology performance, satisfaction of technology, and user acceptance.
Recommendations for Designing Health Information Technologies for Mental Health Drawn From Self-Determination Theory and Co-design With Culturally Diverse Populations: Template Analysis
Authors: Cheng Vanessa Wan Sze , Piper Sarah E , Ottavio Antonia , Davenport Tracey A , Hickie Ian B 
Published: November 2020

Background
Culturally diverse populations (including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, people of diverse genders and sexualities, and culturally and linguistically diverse people) in nonurban areas face compounded barriers to accessing mental health care. Health information technologies (HITs) show promising potential to overcome these barriers.

Objective
This study aims to identify how best to improve a mental health and well-being HIT for culturally diverse Australians in nonurban areas.

Methods
We conducted 10 co-design workshops (N=105 participants) in primary youth mental health services across predominantly nonurban areas of Australia and conducted template analysis on the workshop outputs. Owing to local (including service) demographics, the workshop participants naturalistically reflected culturally diverse groups.

Results
We identified 4 main themes: control, usability, affirmation, and health service delivery factors. The first 3 themes overlap with the 3 basic needs postulated by self-determination theory (autonomy, competence, and relatedness) and describe participant recommendations on how to design an HIT. The final theme includes barriers to adopting HITs for mental health care and how HITs can be used to support care coordination and delivery. Hence, it describes participant recommendations on how to use an HIT.

Conclusions
Although culturally diverse groups have specific concerns, their expressed needs fall broadly within the relatively universal design principles identified in this study. The findings of this study provide further support for applying self-determination theory to the design of HITs and reflect the tension in designing technologies for complex problems that overlap multiple medical, regulatory, and social domains, such as mental health care. Finally, we synthesize the identified themes into general recommendations for designing HITs for mental health and provide concrete examples of design features recommended by participants.

The overall results show that, the alpha activity have their values below WHO recommended practical screening level of 0.5 Bq/L radioactivity for drinking water.
Wskaźniki rentowności jako miary efektywności gospodarowania w spółkach węglowych w latach 2014–2018
Authors: GOŁĘBIOWSKI Grzegorz , KRÓLIKOWSKA Elżbieta 
Published: November 2020

W artykule poruszone zostały problemy oceny efektywności funkcjonowania kopalń węgla kamiennego notowanych na rynkach kapitałowych przy wykorzystaniu wskaźników rentowności. Zmienność cen węgla determinuje w dużym stopniu wyniki finansowe co powoduje, że w okresach dekoniunktury spółki ponoszą straty. Wskaźniki deficytowości sprzedaży, aktywów i kapitałów własnych wskazują, jak głębokie straty ponoszą spółki węglowe w okresie dekoniunktury. W niektórych z nich, kapitały własne mają wartości ujemne wynikające z nierozliczonych strat. W okresie koniunktury, spółki generują zyski i wykazują wysoką rentowność we wszystkich ocenianych obszarach. Wskaźniki rentowności klasycznie wykorzystywane do oceny efektywności funkcjonowania przedsiębiorstw przez kapitałodawców w spółkach węglowych nie stanowią w krótkim okresie czasu wyznacznika tej efektywności. Mogą natomiast być wykorzystane do oceny w dłuższym okresie.

With the rapid change of the macro environmental factors, the operations and organizations of Taiwan's overall construction industry have also been greatly affected, and in retrospect, the publicly-listed construction companies in Taiwan have often encountered the phenomenon of Bermuda Effect of Real Estate. Hence, can good product planning and design adapt to the above-mentioned adverse environmental changes? The main purposes of this study are to verify the impact of Product- Planning-and Design on Financial Performance with Macro Environmental Factors as an intervening variable for the publicly-listed construction companies in Taiwan; besides, the directors or above of Taiwan publicly-listed construction companies as the research interview object, and this study uses the database of Taiwan Economic Journal (TEJ) to obtain the company's EPS information and adopts Purposive sampling to sample the population. In addition, this study firstly establishes the SEM model and then verifies the fitting effect of the Structural model, Measurement model and Whole model. These Findings Show that as Below •	Product Planning and Design (PD) has a positive impact on Financial Performance (FP), but not significant; •	Macro Environmental Factors (ME) have a positive impact on Financial Performance (FP), but not significant; and •	Product Planning and Design (PD) and Macro Environmental Factors (ME), both of which have a positive interactive effect on Financial Performance (FP), but not significant. This implies that Macro Environmental Factors (ME) plays an important role in promoting Financial Performance (FP), which is also influenced by other factors. Keywords: Product Planning and Design (PD), Macro Environmental Factors (ME), Financial Performance (FP).
Effect of Oxyethylene Groups on Adsorption Properties of Fatty Alcohol Polyoxyethylene Ether Sodium Sulfate with Narrow Ethylene Oxide Distribution
Authors: Wang Xingang , Yang Xiaoyi , Sun Yongqiang , Guo Chaohua , Li Ping , Li Jianbo 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
The effect of oxyethylene groups on the adsorption properties of fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether sodium sulfate with narrow ethylene oxide distribution (AEmS, m = 3, 5, 7, 9) was characterized by means of the equilibrium surface tension, the dynamic surface tension and the contact angle. The results show that at a concentration lower than the critical micelle concentration (CMC) the oxyethylene groups act like hydrophobic groups to change the absorption properties. If the concentration is higher than the critical micelle concentration, the oxyethylene groups act as hydrophilic groups to change the absorption properties. The long polyoxyethylene chain of AE9S is very curly, which means that AE9S does not strictly follow the rule derived from AEmS (m = 3, 5, 7). The adsorption process of AEmS is a mixed diffusion-kinetic adsorption mechanism.
Investigation on Heavy Metal Removal from a Crude Oil Contaminated Soil using Rhamnolipid Biosurfactant as a New Eco-Friendly Method

Published: November 2020

Abstract
Many studies have been conducted on the removal of heavy metals from industrial wastewater using biosurfactants, but few papers have been published on the removal of heavy metals from soil contaminated with crude oil using this method. The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of rhamnolipid biosurfactants in removing nickel, chromium, and cadmium from soil contaminated with crude oil. In this study, first rhamnolipid was produced from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PTCC1340 and then confirmed by Thin-Layer-Chromatography (TLC) and Fourier-Transformation-Infrared-Spectroscopy (FTIR). In the next step, a sandy soil (2 mm diameter) was mixed with the crude oil (API = 32.83, viscosity = 6.21cp) at 258C for 2 weeks. The washing parameters included temperature, pH and rhamnolipid dosage. Based on our results, the heavy metal removal of nickel, chromium and cadmium from soil contaminated with crude oil at the optimum condition (258C, 0.8 g/L and pH 11) was 43.05%, 34.73% and 52.81%, respectively. Based on the results, rhamnolipids are found to have considerable potential for removing heavy metals especially cadmium, and the soil washing by the produced biosurfactant leads to the removal of heavy metals without the destructive effects of chemical surfactants and subsequently reduces environmental pollution. Therefore, this biosurfactant rhamnolipid may have a good potential for application in bioremediation of crude oil contamination.

Published: November 2020

Abstract
The Cloud Point Extraction (CPE) of Pb(II) ion, using Triton X-114/ alanine and Triton X-114/phenyalanine as biodegradable systems, was carried out. The experimental results are expressed by four responses to surfactant concentration, amino acid concentration and temperature variations: extent of solute extraction (E), remaining solute (Xm,w) and surfactant (Xt,w) concentrations in dilute phase and volume fraction of coacervate (}C) at equilibrium. An empirical smoothing method was used, where the results were represented on three dimensional plots using the Box-Behnken design (BBD) and the response surface methodology (RSM). High extraction efficiencies (94% with alanine and 98% with phenylalanine) are reached in optimal conditions. Thereby, solute concentration reduction in the dilute phase is about 4 and 12 times with alanine and phenylalanine, respectively. The pH effect is also studied. Finally, the possibility of recycling the surfactant/amino acid system by pH change is proved.

Published: November 2020

Introduction: In December 2019, China faced the COVID-19 outbreak. COVID-19 is a disease caused by the pathogen, SARS-CoV-2 which is a single stranded RNA virus that spreads person to person via direct contact or respiratory droplets. Since this disease has been found to be highly contagious, prevention from virus exposure seems to be a reasonable approach especially due to lack of an effective vaccination up till now. Our study is aimed at proposing the prophylactic strategies that can be implemented in Pakistan to help flatten the disease curve in order to provide more time for healthcare professionals to fight the disease better and to hopefully come up with an effective vaccination for long term disease control. Methods: We conducted a systematic literature review based on PRISMA guidelines. Only those articles were included which met the inclusion criteria. Results: The results gathered by the literature search suggested that due to the lack of any licensed vaccine or effective treatment, adopting personal and environmental protective measures, isolation and quarantine, and other community mitigation measures like temporary lockdown can help flatten the peak of the ongoing pandemic. Conclusion: Since there has not been any breakthrough in finding an effective vaccine, our review aims to devise an effective preventive strategy to curb this pandemic according to the present socio-economic conditions of Pakistan.
