Examining the Mental Workload Associated With Digital Health Technologies in Health Care: Protocol for a Systematic Review Focusing on Assessment Methods
Authors: Kremer Lisanne , Lipprandt Myriam , Röhrig Rainer , Breil Bernhard 
Published: June 2021

Background
The workload in health care is high; physicians and nurses report high stress levels due to a demanding environment where they often have to perform multiple tasks simultaneously. As a result, mental health issues among health care professionals (HCPs) are on the rise and the prevalence of errors in their daily tasks could increase. Processes of demographic change are partly responsible for even higher stress levels among HCPs. The digitization of patient care is intended to counteract these processes. However, it remains unclear whether these health information systems (HIS) and digital health technologies (DHT) support the HCPs and relieve stress, or if they represent a further burden. The mental construct that describes this burden of technologies is mental workload (MWL). Work in the clinic can be viewed as working in safety-critical environments. Particularly in this sensitive setting, the measurement methods of MWL are relevant, mainly due to their strongly differing levels of intrusiveness and sensitivity. The method of eye tracking could be a useful way to measure MWL directly in the field.

Objective
The systematic review aims to address the following questions: (1) In which manner do DHT contribute to the overall MWL of HCPs? (2) Can we observe a direct or indirect effect of DHT on MWL? (3) Which aspects or factors of DHT contribute to an increase in MWL? (4) Which methods/assessments are applied to measure MWL related to HIS/DHT? (5) What role does eye tracking/pupillometry play in the context of measuring MWL? (6) Which outcomes are being assessed via eye tracking?

Methods
Following the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis) statement, we will conduct a systematic review. Based on the research questions, we define keywords that we then combine in search terms. The review follows the following steps: literature search, article selection, data extraction, risk of bias assessment, data analysis, and data synthesis.

Results
We expect results as well as a finalization of the review in the summer of 2021.

Conclusions
This review will evaluate the impact of DHT on the MWL of HCPs. In addition, assessment methods of MWL in the context of digital technologies will be systematically analyzed.

Authors: Rodrigues Xavier da Cruz Uilmer , Alexandrino Garcia Ricardo 
Published: June 2021

Resumo
Ao longo dos anos, a Geografia demonstra grande preocupação com a relação inerente entre o homem e a natureza. Não é possível deixar de notar a associação existente entre a degradação ambiental, a desigualdade social e as práticas capitalistas de exploração e esgotamento dos recursos naturais. Tal ligação evoca o conceito de justiça social e seus aspectos, discutidos neste ensaio, o qual considera as relações sociais, de poder, e o meio ambiente, observa a possibilidade de equidade na distribuição de recursos, e compreende a perspectiva que conecta a desigualdade ambiental à desigualdade social.
Palavras-chave: Ecologia política. Meio ambiente. Justiça ambiental.
Abstract
Over the years, Geography has shown great concern upon the inherent relationship between man and nature. One cannot fail to notice the relationship between environmental degradation, social inequality, and capitalist practices of exploitation and depletion of natural resources. Such association evokes the social justice concept and its aspects, discussed in this essay, which considers social and power relations and the environment, observes equity possibility in resources distribution, and understands the perspective that connects environmental inequality to social inequality.
Keywords: Political Ecology. Environment. Environmental Justice.
Resumen
A lo largo de los años, la Geografía ha demostrado gran preocupación por la relación inherente entre el hombre y la naturaleza. No es posible dejar de percibir la asociación entre la degradación del ambiente, la desigualdad social y las prácticas capitalistas de explotación y agotamiento de los recursos naturales. Tal vínculo evoca el concepto de justicia social y sus aspectos, discutidos en este ensayo, que considera las relaciones sociales de poder y el medioambiente, observa la posibilidad de equidad en la distribución de recursos y comprende la perspectiva que conecta la desigualdad ambiental a la desigualdad social.

La Universidad en su redefinición epistemológica institucional
Authors: Cortez Schall Carolina 
Published: June 2021

En este ensayo se aborda, como objeto de estudio, la definición de la Universidad Argentina y sus funciones desde sus orígenes, a través de una mirada analítica, focalizada en la transformación de la ciencia, la tecnología y su vínculo con el medio socio-productivo. Para luego concluir sobre las situaciones sociales emergentes que establecen la redefinición de las funciones de la universidad, visibilizadas en sus políticas, estrategias y prácticas concretas; en primer lugar,enlazadas a resolver las problemáticas sociales, para luego llegar al sector productivo y económico de un país.Frente a una transformación continua y dinámica de las estructuras configurantes de la universidad que se conoce, se evidencia un proceso de constantes cambios sociales y culturales, los cuales demandan otras funciones y acciones de las instituciones enmarcadas en un contexto político, social y económico; en medio de este, indefectiblemente la universidad, además de buscar su propio financiamiento, debe vincularse por medio de la empatía y la responsabilidad social.
La situación emergente que se suscita, de una profunda crisis social, económica y sanitaria, lleva ante la inminente necesidad de pensar y repensar en la generación de políticas desde la gestión universitaria, que le ofrezcan centralidad y sustento al conocimiento para el desarrollo y el acompañamiento actual y futuro de la sociedad. Todo esto, por medio de la innovación, la tecnología y la transferencia de la ciencia de la mano con el medio socio productivo desde una profunda convicción de responsabilidad y calidad social universitaria.
Differences in U.S. Rural-Urban Trends in Diabetes ABCS, 1999–2018

Published: June 2021

OBJECTIVE
To examine changes in and the relationships between diabetes management and rural and urban residence.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
Using National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1999–2018) data from 6,372 adults aged ≥18 years with self-reported diagnosed diabetes, we examined poor ABCS: A1C &gt;9% (&gt;75 mmol/mol), Blood pressure (BP) ≥140/90 mmHg, Cholesterol (non-HDL) ≥160 mg/dL (≥4.1 mmol/L), and current Smoking. We compared odds of urban versus rural residents (census tract population size ≥2,500 considered urban, otherwise rural) having poor ABCS across time (1999–2006, 2007–2012, and 2013–2018), overall and by sociodemographic and clinical characteristics.

RESULTS
During 1999–2018, the proportion of U.S. adults with diabetes residing in rural areas ranged between 15% and 19.5%. In 1999–2006, there were no statistically significant rural-urban differences in poor ABCS. However, from 1999–2006 to 2013–2018, there were greater improvements for urban adults with diabetes than for rural for BP ≥140/90 mmHg (relative odds ratio [OR] 0.8, 95% CI 0.6–0.9) and non-HDL ≥160 mg/dL (≥4.1 mmol/L) (relative OR 0.45, 0.4–0.5). These differences remained statistically significant after adjustment for race/ethnicity, education, poverty levels, and clinical characteristics. Yet, over the 1999–2018 time period, minority race/ethnicity, lower education attainment, poverty, and lack of health insurance coverage were factors associated with poorer A, B, C, or S in urban adults compared with their rural counterparts.

CONCLUSIONS
Over two decades, rural U.S. adults with diabetes have had less improvement in BP and cholesterol control. In addition, rural-urban differences exist across sociodemographic groups, suggesting that efforts to narrow this divide may need to address both socioeconomic and clinical aspects of care.
Effects of potential confounding variables on accuracy of a commercially available veterinary point-of-care hematocrit meter in the evaluation of blood samples from dogs and cats

Published: June 2021

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To assess the agreement in measurements of Hct values and hemoglobin (Hgb) concentrations in blood samples from dogs and cats between a commercially available veterinary point-of-care (POC) Hct meter and a laboratory-based (LAB) analyzer and to determine the effects of various conditions (ie, lipemia, hyperbilirubinemia, hemolysis, autoagglutination, and reticulocytosis) on the accuracy of the POC meter.

SAMPLES
Blood samples from 86 dogs and 18 cats

PROCEDURES
Blood samples were run in duplicate on the POC meter, which reported Hgb concentration, measured via optical reflectance, and a calculated Hct value. The POC meter results were compared with results from a LAB analyzer. Blood samples with grossly visible lipemia, icterus, hemolysis, and autoagglutination were noted.

RESULTS
Mean ± SD values for LAB Hct were 33.9 ± 15.73% (range, 3.9% to 75.8%), and for LAB Hgb were 11.2 ± 5.4 g/dL (range, 1 to 24.6 g/dL). Mean bias between POC Hct and LAB Hct values was–1.8% with 95% limits of agreement (LOAs) of–11.1% to 7.5% and between POC Hgb and LAB Hgb concentrations was–0.5 g/dL with 95% LOAs of–3.8 to 2.8 g/dL. There was no influence of lipemia (14 samples), icterus (23), autoagglutination (14), hemolysis (12), or high reticulocyte count (15) on the accuracy of the POC meter. The POC meter was unable to read 13 blood samples; 9 had a LAB Hct ≤ 12%, and 4 had a LAB Hct concentration between 13% and 17%.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE
Overall, measurements from the POC meter had good agreement with those from the LAB analyzer. However, LOAs were fairly wide, indicating that there may be clinically important differences between measurements from the POC meter and LAB analyzer. (J Am Vet Med Assoc 2021;259:49–55)
Role of an ABCB1 1930_1931del TC gene mutation in a temporal cluster of macrocyclic lactone–induced neurologic toxicosis in cats associated with products labeled for companion animal use
Authors: Mealey Katrina L. , Burke Neal S. , Connors Rebecca L. 
Published: June 2021

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To determine whether ABCB11930_1931del TC predisposed cats to macrocyclic-lactone toxicosis and the frequency of the ABCB11930_1931del TC gene mutation in banked feline DNA samples.

SAMPLE
DNA samples from 5 cats presented for neurologic clinical signs presumed to be caused by exposure to macrocyclic lactones and 1,006 banked feline DNA samples.

PROCEDURES
The medical history pertaining to 5 cats was obtained from veterinarians who examined, treated, or performed necropsies on them. The DNA from these 5 cats and 1,006 banked feline samples were analyzed for the presence of the ABCB11930_1931del TC genotype.

RESULTS
4 of the 5 cats with neurologic signs presumed to be associated with macro-cyclic-lactone exposure were homozygous for ABCB11930_1931del TC. The other cat had unilateral vestibular signs not typical of macrocyclic-lactone toxicosis. The distribution of genotypes from the banked feline DNA samples was as follows: 0 homozygous for ABCB11930_1931del TC, 47 heterozygous for ABCB11930_1931del TC, and 959 homozygous for the wild-type ABCB1 allele. Among the 47 cats with the mutant ABCB1 allele, only 3 were purebred (Ragdoll, Russian Blue, and Siamese).

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE
Results suggested a strong relationship between homozygosity for ABCB11930_1931del TC and neurologic toxicosis after topical application with eprinomectin-containing antiparasitic products labeled for use in cats. Although this genotype is likely rare in the general cat population, veterinarians should be aware of this genetic mutation in cats and its potential for enhancing susceptibility to adverse drug reactions.

Abstract
The article presents discussion on the state and prospects of bioenergy development in the context of rationalization of energy crops application as resource potential of Ukraine. Along with the development of society and increase of life intensity, the needs of mankind with regard to energy resources are increasing. The reduction rates of traditional types of energy resources are progressively growing, and their shortage is increasing. In addition, Ukraine belongs to import-dependent countries in the energy sector. At the expense of its own sources, our country provides only about half of the energy needs, while domestic national economy is one of the most energy-intensive industries in the world. In this regard, there is an urgent need to search for new, alternative sources of energy. Taking into account the potential present in Ukraine, the biomass use for energy production is the most attractive option. However, along with this, there is a problem of purposeful use of the agricultural land and a competitive struggle between agricultural products for nutrition and energy purposes. At the same time, many problems arise, which concerdevelopment of an appropriate legislative framework, methodological approaches to the economic, environmental and social efficiency of production and use of biological types of energy.
Feature Reinforcement Learning: Part II. Structured MDPs
Authors: Hutter Marcus 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
The Feature Markov Decision Processes ( MDPs) model developed in Part I (Hutter, 2009b) is well-suited for learning agents in general environments. Nevertheless, unstructured (Φ)MDPs are limited to relatively simple environments. Structured MDPs like Dynamic Bayesian Networks (DBNs) are used for large-scale real-world problems. In this article I extend ΦMDP to ΦDBN. The primary contribution is to derive a cost criterion that allows to automatically extract the most relevant features from the environment, leading to the “best” DBN representation. I discuss all building blocks required for a complete general learning algorithm, and compare the novel ΦDBN model to the prevalent POMDP approach.

Published: June 2021

Abstract
The article focuses on the issue of the prospects of municipal organic wastes management in Ukraine in the context of the applicable EU practices in the field. The investigation was made according to the SWOT analysis. The general scientific and specific scientific methods were used at all the three stages of the investigation. The peculiarities of the Ukrainian legislation and their compliance with the EU directives and policies were analysed. The key problems of the Ukrainian wastes legislation, political and legal relations in the field were reviewed. The New Ukrainian Wastes Management Strategy was analysed. The main principles and priorities of the EU wastes strategies were presented. The best (and the most applicable for Ukraine) European practices were examined, including the five-step hierarchy and features of the national wastes collecting, sorting and disposal systems. Wastes composting technologies were discussed in detail. Possibilities of using wastes as bio fuel for refuelling municipal equipment, air transport, etc. were determined. The futility of expanding landfill areas for solving wastes management issues was noted. The main requirements to be met for regulating wastes management market in accordance with the Association Agreement with the EU were outlined. Recommendations on implementing circular economy principles and extended producers’ responsibility to encourage the public society to sort wastes, businesses to minimize wastes generation and draw interest to recycling were suggested.

Transliteracias: A Terceira Onda Informacional nas Humanidades Digitais
Authors: Passarelli Brasilina , Gomes Ana Claudia Fernandes 
Published: June 2021

A partir do conceito de “ondas informacionais” cunhado por Brasilina Passarelli para representar os diferentes momentos históricos de acesso Ã Internet, apropriação, produção de conteúdos digitais interativos nas literacias de mídia e informação, participação, compartilhamento até chegar Ã conectividade contínua e Ã s transliteracias, o objetivo central deste artigo consiste na construção teórica das três ondas informacionais propostas pela pesquisadora e suas relações com especialistas no tema. Passarelli (2010) distinguiu, inicialmente, duas “ondas informacionais” na sociedade em rede: a primeira cujo núcleo central foi definido pelas preocupações políticas e programas de acesso para inclusão digital; a segunda concentrava-se nas diferentes formas de apropriação e produção de conhecimentos na Web a reboque das literacias de mídia e informação. Atualmente vivenciamos o imbricamento da internet das coisas, big data e inteligência artificial e, a reboque desta nova ecologia das redes emerge uma “terceira onda informacional” protagonizada pelo conceito das transliteracias, que abarca as interações entre humanos e não-humanos, recria formas de sociabilidade e rompe os limites da rede, alastrando-se por todas as esferas da vida social contemporânea.
Humanidades digitais na ciência da informação brasileira: análise da produção científica
Authors: Andrade Laura Mariane de , Dal'Evedove Paula Regina 
Published: June 2021

A tecnologia digital nas atividades humanas mobiliza contribuições e atenção de diferentes campos científicos. Como ferramenta contemporânea, altera significativamente as práticas na vida cotidiana, além de congregar inovações em diferentes segmentos sociais, sendo o fenômeno caracterizado como humanidades digitais. Apesar de ainda não ser um campo de estudo totalmente consolidado, sua inserção em diversas áreas do conhecimento é notória por trazer benefícios amplos para a sociedade. Apesar disso, observa-se uma exígua exploração sobre como as humanidades digitais podem atuar no que concerne Ã sua transversalidade com a ciência da informação. Neste sentido, objetiva-se analisar os trabalhos de autores brasileiros da ciência da informação que contemplam as humanidades digitais como objeto de estudo. A partir de um estudo teórico-bibliográfico, verifica-se como a ciência da informação tem incorporado o conceito transdisciplinar das humanidades digitais, traçando um panorama conceitual e epistemológico sobre a convergência dos campos. Para tanto, a pesquisa analisa trabalhos apresentados no Encontro Nacional de Pesquisa em Ciência da Informação (ENANCIB), em razão de sua relevância na promoção da pesquisa e estudos avançados da área no Brasil. A metodologia adotada possui caráter qualitativo, sendo aplicada a técnica de análise de conteúdo para interpretação e produção de inferências. Como resultados principais, verifica-se que a inserção das humanidades digitais na pesquisa brasileira de ciência da informação é escassa, mas que colabora com o desenvolvimento do tema de forma consistente. Conclui-se que existem diversas vertentes dentro das humanidades digitais em convergência com o campo da informação que podem ser interessantes, com provável crescimento exponencial nos próximos anos.
A prática da pesquisa documental em Psicologia
Authors: Nunes Denise Bacellar , Simeão Elmira , Pereira Ondina 
Published: June 2021

A prática da pesquisa documental tem sido um desafio para diversas áreas do conhecimento, pois para executá-la é preciso observar além do documento e de seu conjunto organizado. A prática de uso da documentação depende de certas condições para sua apropriação enquanto objeto. Para possibilitar a aproximação entre a Psicologia e área de informação por meio da apropriação de registros descreve-se então a caracterização geral da produção científica que marca a construção epistemológica da produção da pós-graduação em Psicologia da Universidade Católica de Brasília. Com a organização da produção científica decorrentes da formação em nível mais avançado e a análise quantitativa e qualitativa de trabalhos (teses e dissertações), sua distribuição anual e orientadores em 16 anos de Programa, foi possível identificar algumas aproximações epistemológicas de cunho teórico-ontológico. Para essa pesquisa foram analisados 252 trabalhos produzidos por alunos do Programa da universidade. O trabalho se insere numa investigação mais ampla que propõe como desafio um planejamento mais assertivo na formação a partir de estratégias de uso da documentação e das competências em informação para sua disseminação e uso. Para melhor elucidar a questão, abordaremos o papel do documento na compreensão da realidade e sua inserção na formação e prática clínica do psicólogo. Ademais mostraremos como a documentação relaciona-se com a subjetividade humana e seu papel na arquitetura da informação. Dessa forma é possível dar maior visibilidade Ã documentação e seu papel na pesquisa integrada da Psicologia e Ciência da Informação, contribuindo com informações relevantes nessa aproximação.
