Екологічна небезпека шахтних породних відвалів в умовах урбанізованого середовища є високою. Для її оцінювання у кожному конкретному випадку потрібно проводити екологічний моніторинг для розроблення природоохоронних заходів з мінімізації негативних їх чинників. Наголошено на чинниках, які призводять до самозаймання вугільних відвалів, та на підставі наукових джерел детально описано хімізм досліджуваних процесів. Окиснення і горіння породних відвалів супроводжується значним виділенням водяної пари, яка є мінералоутворюючим середовищем для більшої частини мінералів: сульфатів, гідрокарбонатів, карбонатів, фосфатів, арсенатів. Окрім цього, внаслідок окиснення виділяється вуглекислота, нітроген оксид (IV), який з водою утворює нітратну кислоту. У разі нестачі кисню в осередках горіння в парогазових викидах міститися сірководень, вуглеводні, амоніак, оксид карбону (II). Акцентовано увагу на тому, що важливе значення в процесах окиснення належить сірці. Окиснення вугілля посилюється на дрібних частинках, через збільшення площі поверхні, що доступна для окиснення. Висвітлено, що найнадійнішим способом захисту від самозаймання вугільних відвалів є створення на їх поверхні рослинного покриву. Процес формування рослинного покриву є дуже важливим, адже при цьому відбувається як накопичення важких металів у рослинах, так і зв'язування субстрату їхніми коренями й кореневищами, що зменшує процес вивітрювання та вимивання породи, яка містить велику кількість важких металів. Встановлено показники температури займання та самозаймання зразків деревних порід відвалів вугільних шахт згідно з ДСТУ8829:2019. Дослідження показників займання та самозаймання твердих речовин і матеріалів здійснювали у весняний та літній періоди. Досліджуваними об'єктами були проби листя та деревина з терикону шахти Нововолинського гірничопромислового району (Волинська область, м. Нововолинськ). Встановлено, що для сосни звичайної температура займання становить: +225 °C, а самозаймання +475 °C. Температура займання берези повислої +260 °C, дуба звичайного +275 °C, козячої верби +280 °C, температура самозаймання – берези повислої +470 °C, дуба звичайного +475 °C, верби козячої +473 °C. Температура займання берези повислої, дуба звичайного, верби козячої ніж сосни звичайної робить їх перспективними породами дерев для запобігання самозайманню вугільних відвалів.
Renewing the Civic and Democratic Mission of Higher Education: Perspectives of Leadership
Authors: Whitford Heidi 
Published: January 2021

University and center leaders have a strategic role in shaping higher education toward a mission that values democratic and civic engagement. A unique feature of this book is that most of the contributors are college and university presidents and center directors. Several chapters contribute to historical knowledge of the transformative role that higher education plays in civil society and public life. Many of the values espoused in these chapters are visions of ideals and calls to action that speak to the challenges of injustice, racism, and inequity embedded within higher education and societal structures. While many of these issues remain in our midst, we may still appreciate the hope and optimism within these ideals if our higher education and community leaders are progressing in a positive direction. Los líderes de universidades y de centros académicos tiene un papel estratégico en la formación de la educación superior hacia una misión que valore el compromiso democrático y cívico. Un aspecto único de este libro es que la mayoría de los colaboradores son presidentes de universidades o directores de centros académicos. Varios capítulos contribuyen al conocimiento histórico del rol transformativo que la educación superior juega en la sociedad civil y en la vida pública. Muchos de los valores compartidos en estos capítulos son visiones de ideales y llamadas a la acción que responden a los desafíos de la injusticia, el racismo y la inequidad integrados en la educación superior y en las estructuras de la sociedad. Mientras muchos de estos asuntos siguen presentes, podemos todavía apreciar la esperanza y el optimismo dentro de estos ideales si nuestros líderes en las esferas universitarias y comunitarias progresan en una dirección positiva.

Published: January 2021

Although volunteer community engagement has been recognized as promoting positive academic outcomes among college students, such experiences can be impractical for underrepresented students who often need to work. Community-engaged employment offers paid opportunities for students to earn money while participating in meaningful community initiatives. In this study, we explored the impact of community-engaged employment on the academic outcomes of underrepresented students. We created a comparison group using propensity score matching, which reduced selection bias and group differences on background characteristics, thus strengthening causal arguments. Results showed that underrepresented students who were employed in a community-engaged work program had significantly higher second-year retention rates, graduation rates, grade point averages, and number of credits completed compared to similar students not employed in the program. These findings indicate that community-engaged employment can provide positive academic outcomes similar to volunteer community engagement experiences, while also addressing financial barriers that many underrepresented students encounter. A pesar de que se reconoce que la participación comunitaria voluntaria promueve resultados académicos positivos entre los estudiantes universitarios, estas experiencias pueden resultar no muy prácticas para los estudiantes infrarrepresentados, quienes a menudo necesitan trabajar. Los empleos comprometidos con la comunidad ofrecen oportunidades pagadas para que los estudiantes ganen dinero al mismo tiempo que participan en iniciativas comunitarias significativas. En este estudio, exploramos el impacto que tienen los empleos comprometidos con la comunidad en los resultados académicos de estudiantes infrarrepresentados. Para ello, creamos un grupo de comparación utilizando el pareamiento por puntaje de propensión (‘propensity score matching’ o ‘PSM’ en inglés), lo que redujo el sesgo de selección y las diferencias de grupo basadas en el entorno social, fortaleciendo así los argumentos causales. Al comparar los resultados académicos de estudiantes infrarrepresentados empleados en programas de participación comunitaria con estudiantes similares no empleados en dichos programas, observamos que tanto la tasa de retención en el segundo año de estudios, como la tasa de graduación, los promedios de calificaciones y el número de créditos completados fueron significativamente más altos en los primeros. Estos hallazgos indican que el empleo comprometido con la comunidad puede proporcionar resultados académicos positivos similares a las experiencias de participación comunitaria voluntaria, al tiempo que ofrece una solución a las barreras financieras que enfrentan muchos estudiantes infrarrepresentados.
Perceptions of Service-Learning: Experiences in the Community
Authors: Colvin Janet W. 
Published: January 2021

Over the past 30 years, service-learning has become widespread in higher education in the United States. Service-learning has multiple aims, such as serving and helping others, motivating students, and increasing student involvement and learning in courses. Specifically in intercultural environments, service-learning has been used to help students connect to diverse populations, reduce stereotypes, and increase global awareness. However, little work has investigated students’ perceptions of their experience. Using qualitative analysis of journal entries made throughout a semester, this study demonstrates the importance of connecting course materials to community issues and increasing student interest in learning about the refugee population in their community. Students had feelings of uncertainty as well as excitement but ultimately were able to recognize the change in themselves as they connected course materials with learning about refugees through direct interaction. El aprendizaje en servicio se ha generalizado en la enseñanza superior de los Estados Unidos en los últimos 30 años. Este tipo de aprendizaje cumple múltiples objetivos: servir y ayudar a los demás, motivar a los estudiantes, incrementar su participación en clase e incentivar la adquisición de conocimientos. En entornos interculturales específicamente, el aprendizaje en servicio ha sido utilizado para ayudar a los estudiantes a conectarse con poblaciones heterogéneas, reducir los estereotipos y aumentar la conciencia global. Sin embargo, se ha investigado poco acerca de lo que piensan los estudiantes de sus experiencias. Este estudio demuestra la importancia de conectar el material curricular con los asuntos comunitarios, en aras de incentivar el interés de los estudiantes en la población de refugiados de su comunidad. Para ello se hizo un análisis cualitativo de las anotaciones en diarios realizadas a todo lo largo de un semestre. Los estudiantes mostraron sentimientos encontrados de incertidumbre y entusiasmo, pero al final fueron capaces de reconocer el cambio en sí mismos al conectar el material curricular con el conocimiento de los refugiados a través de la interacción directa.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana tata kelola arsip pada Kantor Kementerian Agama Kota Jambi dengan memanfaatkan sarana dan prasarana seadanya yang berada disekitar kita dalam mendukung pelayanan administrasi pada Kantor Kementerian Agama Kota Jambi. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif dengan data kualitatif. Pengamatan meliputi implementasi proses manajemen kearsipan, dan peran perencanaan, pengorganisasian, pengawasan serta memperhatikan faktor-faktor yang menjadi penentu dalam pelaksanaan pengelolaan arsip yaitu sumber daya manusia, sarana prasarana, anggaran, dukungan dan perhatian pimpinan. Data yang dianalisis adalah hasil observasi dan hasil wawancara dengan Kepala Kantor, Kepala Sub. Bagian Tata Usaha, Kepala Seksi, Koordinator, dan Staf pada Lingkungan Kantor Kementerian Agama Kota Jambi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tata kelola arsip pada Kantor Kementerian Agama Kota Jambi meskipun hanya didukung dengan sarana dan prasarana yang minim, tata kelola kearsipan tetap mengacu pada pola klasifikasi, pedoman pengurusan surat, dan pedoman penataan berkas. Hasil penelitian juga menunjukkan bahwa tata kelola arsip pada Kantor Kementerian Agama Kota Jambi sudah sesuai dengan standar kearsipan akan tetapi sarana dan prasarana yang digunakan belum memenuhi standar kearsipan. Faktor yang sangat menentukan bagi keberhasilan tata kelola arsip dalam mendukung pelayanan administrasi pada Kantor Kementerian Agama Kota Jambi adalah dukungan perhatian pimpinan dan anggaran, karena tanpa adanya dukungan perhatian dari pimpinan maka kegiatan pengelolaan arsip tidak dapat berjalan dengan optimal serta tanpa didukung dengan anggaran, kebutuhan sarana prasarana tidak akan terpenuhi.

Objective.The aim of this study was to develop a patient-centered quality measurement framework to address a predefined vision statement and 7 strategic objectives for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) care that was developed in prior qualitative work with arthritis stakeholders.Methods.One hundred forty-seven RA-related performance measures (PMs) were identified from a systematic review. A candidate list of 26 PMs meeting predefined criteria and addressing the strategic objectives previously defined was then assessed during a 3-round (R) modified Delphi. Seventeen panelists with expertise in RA, quality measurement, and/or lived experience with RA rated each PM on a 1–9 scale based on the items of importance, feasibility, and priority for inclusion in the framework during R1 and R3, with a moderated discussion in R2. PMs with median scores ≥ 7 on all 3 items without disagreement were included in the final set, which then underwent public comment.Results.Twenty-one measures were included in the final framework (15 PMs from the Delphi and 6 published system-level measures on access to care and treatment). The measures included 4 addressing early access to care and timely diagnosis, 12 evidence-based care for RA and related comorbidities, 1 addressing patient participation as an informed partner in care, and 4 on patient outcomes.Conclusion.The proposed framework builds upon existing measures capturing early access to care and treatment in RA and adds important PMs to promote high-quality RA care and outcome measurement. In the next phase, the authors will test the framework in clinical practice in addition to addressing certain areas where no suitable PMs were identified.

Objective.Cardiac involvement is a poor prognostic marker in systemic sclerosis (SSc). While diastolic dysfunction, myocardial fibrosis, and arrhythmias are traditionally considered features of primary cardiac involvement in SSc, the incidence of valvular heart disease (VHD) is not well reported. Our objective was to examine the prevalence of VHD at the time of SSc diagnosis and incidence of VHD during follow-up compared to non-SSc subjects.Methods.Medical records of patients with suspicion of SSc were reviewed to identify incident cases. SSc subjects were matched 1:2 by age and sex to non-SSc subjects.Results.The study included 78 incident SSc cases and 156 non-SSc comparators (56 yrs [± 15.7], 91% female). A nearly 4-fold increase in the prevalence of moderate/severe VHD prior to SSc diagnosis compared to non-SSc subjects (6% vs 0%; P = 0.004) was identified. During follow-up, 18 SSc and 12 non-SSc patients developed moderate/severe VHD. The cumulative incidence of VHD at 10 years after SSc incidence/index was 17.9% (95% CI 10.7–29.9) in patients with SSc compared with 2.3% (95% CI 0.7–7.0) in non-SSc subjects (HR 4.23, 95% CI 2.03–8.83). Coronary artery disease was the only significant risk factor for VHD.Conclusion.Patients with SSc have a 4-fold increase in the prevalence of moderate/severe VHD at diagnosis compared to non-SSc patients. They also have a 4-fold increased risk of developing moderate/severe VHD after diagnosis of SSc. Aortic stenosis and mitral regurgitation have a much higher prevalence in patients with SSc, besides secondary tricuspid regurgitation. Underlying mechanisms for this association require further elucidation.

ObjectiveWhile opioids are known to cause unintended adverse effects, they are being utilized by a number of patients with osteoarthritis (OA). The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of patient familiarity and perceptions regarding efficacy and risks with opioid medication use for OA.MethodsA total of 362 adults with knee and/or hip OA were surveyed in this cross-sectional study. Patients’ familiarity with and perceptions of benefits/risks of opioid medications were measured to evaluate potential associations with the utilization of opioid medications for OA within the last 6 months. Logistic regression models were adjusted for sociodemographic and clinical variables.ResultsIn this sample, 28.7% (100/349) reported use of an opioid medication for OA-related symptoms in the last 6 months. Those who were on an opioid medication, compared to those who were not, were younger (mean age 62.5 vs 64.8 yrs), were more likely to have a high school education or lower (48.0% vs 35.3%), and had higher mean depression (Patient Health Questionnaire [PHQ]-8 7.2 vs 4.9) and OA-related pain (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index [WOMAC] 54.8 vs 46.8) scores. After adjustment for sociodemographic and clinical variables, the following were associated with opioid medication use: higher perception of medication benefit (OR 1.68, 95% CI 1.18–2.41), lower perception of medication risk (OR 0.67, 95% CI 0.51–0.88), and having family or friends who received the medication for OA (OR 3.88, 95% CI 1.88–8.02).ConclusionAmong adults with knee/hip OA, opioid use was associated with being familiar with the treatment, as well as believing that the medication was beneficial and low-risk.

Published: January 2021

Objective.Both erectile dysfunction (ED) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are associated with increased cardiovascular (CV) risk. It is unknown if these diagnoses are associated or if their combination confers additional CV risk. We aimed to define the incidence of ED in RA, and to determine if ED correlates with increased CV risk in RA.Methods.Medical information concerning RA, ED, and CV diagnoses for men with RA (n = 260) diagnosed in Olmsted County, Minnesota, and age-matched male comparators was extracted from a comprehensive medical record system.Results.ED incidence was similar between the RA cohort and comparators (HR 0.80, 95% CI 0.55–1.16). In men with RA, ED diagnosis was associated with a trend toward an increase in peripheral arterial disease (HR 2.22, 95% CI 0.98–5.03) and a significantly decreased rate of myocardial infarction (HR 0.26, 95% CI 0.07–0.90), heart failure (HR 0.49, 95% CI 0.25–0.94), and death (HR 0.56; 95% CI 0.36–0.87). In men with RA and ED, phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor use was associated with a decreased risk of death (HR 0.35, 95% CI 0.16–0.79), with a trending decreased risk of some CV diagnoses.Conclusion.Incidence of ED was not statistically increased in RA. Although patients with both RA and ED had a similar overall CV risk to those with RA alone, men with both RA and ED had decreased risk of heart failure, myocardial infarction, and death, as well as an increased risk of peripheral arterial disease. Further studies are needed to clarify these associations and their implications for pathogenesis and therapeutics.
