Context: Children with life-limiting diseases suffer from gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms. Since the introduction of specialized palliative home care (SPHC) in Germany, it is possible to care for these children at home. In phase 1 of care the aim is to stabilize the patient. In phase 2, terminal support is provided.Objectives: Analysis were performed of the differences between these phases. The causes and modalities/outcome of treatment were evaluated.Methods: A retrospective study was performed from 2014 to 2020. All home visits were analyzed with regard to the abovementioned symptoms, their causes, treatment and results.Results: In total, 149 children were included (45.9% female, mean age 8.17 ± 7.67 years), and 126 patients were evaluated. GI symptoms were common in both phases. Vomiting was more common in phase 2 (59.3 vs. 27.1%; p &lt; 0.001). After therapy, the proportion of asymptomatic children in phase 1 increased from 40.1 to 75.7%; (p &lt; 0.001). Constipation was present in 52.3% (phase 1) and 54.1% (phase 2). After treatment, the proportion of asymptomatic patients increased from 47.3 to 75.7% in phase 1 (p &lt; 0.001), and grade 3 constipation was reduced from 33.9 to 15% in phase 2 (p &lt; 0.05).Conclusion: Painful GI symptoms occur in both palliative care phases but are more common in phase 2. The severity and frequency can usually be controlled at home. The study limitations were the retrospective design and small number of patients, but the study had a representative population, good data quality and a unique perspective on the reality of outpatient pediatric palliative care in Germany.

Published: March 2021

Introduction:The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), is profoundly affecting the mental health status. Although the burden of mental health problems has been reported in the general population and health care workers, little is known about the prevalence of mental health disorders among recovered COVID-19 patients and their associated factors.Methods:A cross-sectional telephonic-study of recovered COVID-19 patients with and without a history of hospitalization was conducted from April 20 to June 20, 2020, in Tehran, Iran. We assessed the anxiety symptoms, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among participants, using the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-4) and PTSD checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5). Logistic regression analyses were used to explore the risk factors associated with mental health problems.Results:A total of 602 individuals with a mean age of 53.2 years (SD: 14.7), completed the study. The rates of mental health symptoms among the respondents were 5.8% (95% CI: 4.2–7.8%) for anxiety, 5.0% (95% CI: 3.5–7.0%) for depression, and 3.8% (95% CI: 2.3–5.3%) for PTSD disorders. Moreover, being younger than 50 years and female gender was significantly associated with a higher probability of reporting anxiety (p&lt; 0.01), and depression (p&lt; 0.001 for being younger than 50 years,p&lt; 0.02 for female gender).Conclusions:The current study indicated that patients with COVID-19 presented features of anxiety, depression, and PTSD. These results may help implement appropriate mental health intervention policies for those at risk and minimize the mental health consequences of the COVID-19.

Purpose: So far, it has not been described whether the perioperative course and the pathologic outcome of patients who undergo radical cystectomy (RC) with orthotopic bladder substitution differs if nerve sparing (NS) is performed or not.Material and Methods: In all, there were 472 patients who underwent RC between 2012 and 2019 at our department. We performed a retrospective analysis of 116 patients who underwent RC with ileal neobladder. We analyzed perioperative complications according to the Clavien–Dindo classification system, as well as the pathological outcome.Results: Of 116 patients, 68 (58.6%) underwent RC, and 48 (41.4%) underwent NS RC. Clavien–Dindo complications ≥3b occurred in 15 (12.9%) of all patients. Only infectious complications differed among the groups [NS RC: 25 patients (52.1%) vs. RC: 20 patients (29.4%); p = 0.02]. There was no significant difference concerning tumor stage. Concomitant Cis was present in 24 patients (35.3%) of the RC group and in 27 patients (56.3%) of the NS RC group (p = 0.036). Nodal status and positive surgical margin status of the bladder tumor did not differ among the groups. In all, 42 of all male patients (45.7%) had an incidental prostatic carcinoma. Positive surgical margins concerning the prostate carcinoma occurred in six patients, with all cases in the RC group (p = 0.029).Conclusions: Our data suggest that performing NS during RC in carefully selected patients is a safe procedure and does not impair perioperative outcome. Pathological outcome of NS RC is comparable as well.

Authors: Carrión José , Tierra Alfonso , Del Cogliano Daniel 
Published: March 2021

Alturas niveladas pertenecientes a las Redes de Nivelación Fundamental (RNF), sirven de base para el establecimiento de la referencia vertical fundamental de cada país. Cuando estas alturas no están asociadas a observaciones del campo de gravedad terrestre, teniendo por tanto características puramente geométricas, pierden utilidad en la solución de problemas relacionados con fenómenos de carácter regional y global vinculados con la dinámica del Sistema Tierra. Adicionalmente, diferentes Data Verticales Locales (DVL) no materializan la misma referencia, debido a que el NMM determinado en cada DVL presenta discrepancias en relación a un Sistema de Referencia Vertical Global (SRVG). Alturas geométricas provenientes de posicionamiento satelital (GNSS), podrían ser usadas para la determinación de alturas físicas si fuese conocida la relación entre el elipsoide de nivel (superficie de referencia para las alturas geométricas) y una superficie de referencia basada en el campo de la gravedad terrestre. Una aproximación a dicha relación es obtenida de la diferencia entre las alturas elipsoidales y niveladas (h-Hn). Los resultados obtenidos en el presente trabajo muestran que las Redes Neuronales Artificiales (RNA) son un método promisorio en la predicción de la relación geométrica h-Hn. El entrenamiento de una RNA multicapa ha sido realizado, la información de base proviene de registros de la RNF de Ecuador (RNFE) asociados a observaciones GPS (GPS/nivelación), los resultados muestran que la predicción de h-Hn puede ser realizada registrando errores máximos de 7 cm.
Comparing the Thiessen’s Method against simpler alternatives using Monte Carlo Simulation
Authors: Guelfi Marcelo , López-Vazquez Carlos 
Published: March 2021

Estimating the expected value of a function over geographic areas is problem with a long history. In the beginning of the XX-th century the most common method was just the arithmetic mean of the field measurements ignoring data location. In 1911, Thiessen introduced a new weighting procedure measuring influence through an area and thus indirectly considering closeness between them. In another context, Quenouville created in 1949 the jackknife method which is used to estimate the bias and the standard deviation. In 1979 Efron invented the bootstrap method which, among other things, is useful to estimate the expected value and the confidence interval (CI) from a population. Although the Thiessen’s method has been used for more than 100 years, we were unable to find systematic analysis comparing its efficiency against the simple mean, or even to more recent methods like jackknife or boostrap. In this work we compared four methods to estimate de expected value. Sample mean, Thiessen, the so called here jackknifed Thiessen and bootstrap. All of them are feasible for routine use in a network of fixed locations. The comparison was made using the Friedman’s Test after a Monte Carlo simulation. Two cases were taken for study: one analytic with three arbitrary functions and the other using experimental data from daily rain measured with a satellite. The results show that Thiessen’s method is the best estimator in almost all the cases with a 95% of confidence interval. Unlike the others, the last two considered methods supply a suitable CI, but the one obtained through jackknifed Thiessen was even more accurate, opening the door for future work.

Actualmente, los temas más centrales de Geodesia se vinculan a la provisión de un Sistema de Referencia Global único, al que puedan vincularse de forma unívoca y con exactitud los cambios globales de carácter geométrico y físico. El Global Geodetic Reference Frame tiene como objetivo la mejor estructuración de los Sistemas de Observación de la Tierra actualmente con perspectivas de la determinación de los cambios globales al nivel de una parte por mil millones, considerando varios parámetros geométricos y físicos. En este contexto, se pretende que el International Height Reference Frame, realizado por International Height Reference System, posea consistencia global de, por lo menos, un centímetro en su realización y control espacio/temporal en el orden del milímetro por año. Considerando estos aspectos, análisis y evolución temporal del Datum Vertical Brasileño de Imbituba utilizando datos mareográficos del nivel del mar de: Permanent Service for Mean Sea Level (1948 a 1968), University of Hawaii Sea Level Center (2001 a 2007) y Red Mareográfica Permanente para Geodésia (2006 a 2016), y datos de distintas misiones altimétricas del período 1991 a 2015 obtenidos del Banco de Datos del Deutsches Geodätisches Forschungsinstitut. Así como, datos de posicionamiento continuo GNSS del período de 2007 a 2016, de la Red Brasileña de Monitoreo Continuo, los cuales fueron utilizados para modelado de los movimientos locales de la corteza. Los resultados permitirán discriminar los movimientos de la corteza en relación al nivel del mar. Para esto, se utilizó la tendencia de variación del nivel del mar evidenciado por el mareógrafo, así como la variación del componente vertical obtenido con el procesamiento GNSS y de la Sea Surface Height obtenida de los datos de los satélites altimétricos.

The article concerns the research on the properties of core-shell superparamagnetic nanoparticles in the context of their use in medicine for diagnostics and therapy. The article presents a system for impedance (AC) spectroscopy of nanoparticles with a new arrangement of receive coils. A significant modification was the position of the reference coil in relation to the receive coils as well as the method of winding and routing the wires on the carcass. The 3D printing technique was used in the production of the measuring coil system. The aim of the work was to experimentally verify the developed measurement system and analyze its properties. The system tests were carried out at low frequencies ranging from 2 to 50 kHz. Complex magnetic susceptibility was measured for superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles in polymer shells in a physiological saline solution. The obtained results confirmed the relevance of the concept of the measurements. In summary, the observed properties of the realized system are discussed and further directions of its development are proposed.

Published: March 2021

Abstract
We developed a single ultrasound probe to simultaneously measure blood pressure and changes in the diameter of the radial artery to estimate the wall viscoelasticity during flow-mediated dilatation (FMD). This probe can be used for the early diagnosis of arteriosclerosis. This paper introduces the pulse transit time method to accurately measure changes in blood pressure during FMD. Using the single ultrasound probe and the proposed method, in vivo experiments involving three subjects were conducted, and reasonable results on blood pressure were obtained. Thus, the usefulness of the pulse transit time method was experimentally confirmed.

<p><strong><span lang="IN">PLN </span><span>Unit Induk Pembangunan Kalimantan Bagian Timur</span><span lang="IN"> (PLN UIP Kalbagtim) is a company that is responsible for electricity needs in the East Kalimantan region. PLN UIP Kalbagtim covers three types of projects. There are power projects, substation projects, and transmission projects. However, many of these projects experienced delays in their Commercial Operation Date (COD). PLN UIP Kalbagtim only measures the risk level generally and does not measure the root causes of the possible occurrence of this risk. Based on these problems, a study was conducted to identify the projects that experienced delays the most using the Pareto diagram, then analyzed the factors and root causes of the delay using a fish-bone diagram, then using the Analytical Hierarchy Process method, data processing was done to obtain the probability value of each root event. Furthermore, using the Fault Tree Analysis method, the probability value of delay is calculated until the smallest value is found. From the research that has been done, it can be concluded that the transmission project in the form of SUTT is the project that most often experiences delays due to machine, man, material, method, and money factors. The factor that must be set as the priority or focus of the company is the money factor and the root of the incident in it will also be automatically deleted so that the possibility of delays is reduced from 52.71% to 25.28%. </span></strong></p><p><strong><em>Keywords -</em></strong><em> Analytical Hierarchy Process, Fault Tree Analysis, Pareto Chart, Fish-bone Diagram</em></p><p><strong><span lang="IN"><br /></span></strong></p>
