Introduction: Historically, CHW trainings have been developed to support community-based CHWs. When CHWs have been trained to engage with patients, typically such trainings have been for short term grant funded projects, focusing on a specific health intervention and not for long term, ongoing engagement of CHWs employed in clinical settings. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first such effort to describe the development of a standards-based training curriculum for clinic-based CHWs using a novel conceptual framework.Methods: Our conceptual approach for curricular development has several innovative features including: (1) a foundational consultation process with CHW national experts to inform curricular development approach, process and content; (2) utilization of the CHW Consensus Project (C3 Project) to provide curricular standards and guide learning objectives; (3) integration of three key stakeholder group perspectives (patients, healthcare teams, and healthcare systems); (4) use of popular education principles, aiming to foster a collaborative learning process; (5) integration of adult learning principles which build on learners' experiences, culminating in a modified apprenticeship model and (6) collaboration with clinical partners throughout planning and development of the curriculum.Results: The resulting standards-based curriculum is comprised of 10 modules, which span three areas of focus: (1) Establishing a professional CHW identity and competencies; (2) Outlining the context, processes and key actors in health care settings with whom CHWs will engage; and (3) Identifying the main forces that shape health and health care outcomes of patients/families and communities.Discussion: We highlight four lessons from our curriculum development process that may help other such efforts. First, curricular development should utilize CHW standards, existing training materials, and community-focused principles to inform curricular content and learning outcomes. Second, curricula should support training delivery using experience-based, participatory approaches, consistent with adult education and popular education principles. Third, training development for clinical settings should also draw from clinical CHW experiences and input. Fourth, curricula should support training for key stakeholders and champions in clinical organizations to improve organizational readiness for integrating CHWs into healthcare teams and health systems. Our results contribute to growing research on effective CHW training methods for clinical settings.

Background: Currently, the association between sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT-2i) and malignancy risk has yet to be fully elucidated. This meta-analysis aimed to determine the relationship between SGLT-2i and malignancy risk in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients.Methods: We searched PubMed, ScienceDirect, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Web of Science to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published up to August 2020 related to T2D patients treated with SGLT-2i vs. placebo or other hypoglycemic agents. The meta-analysis's primary outcome was malignancies' incidence, and the results were evaluated using risk ratio (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI).Results: We reviewed 76 articles (77 RCTs), comprising 45,162 and 43,811 patients in SGLT-2i and control groups, respectively. Compared with the control group, SGLT-2i had no significant association with augmented overall malignancy risk in T2D patients (RR = 1.05, 95% CI = 0.97–1.14, P = 0.20), but ertugliflozin may upsurge the risk (RR = 1.80, 95% CI = 1.02–3.17, P = 0.04). Compared with active hypoglycemic agents, dapagliflozin may increase (RR = 2.71, 95% CI = 1.46–6.43, P = 0.02) and empagliflozin may decrease (RR = 0.67, 95% CI = 0.45–0.98, P = 0.04) the malignancy risk. Compared with placebo, empagliflozin may exhibit risk increase (RR = 1.25, 95% CI = 1.05–1.49, P = 0.01), primarily in digestive system (RR = 1.48, 95% CI = 0.99–2.21, P = 0.05).Conclusions: Our results proposed that in diverse comparisons, ertugliflozin and dapagliflozin seemed to increase the malignancy risk in T2D patients. Empagliflozin may cause malignancy risk reduction compared with active hypoglycemic agents but increase overall risk primarily in the digestive system compared with placebo. In short, the relationship between SGLT-2i and malignancy in T2D patients remains unclear.
Propaganda protestante e imprentas en Barcelona. El colportor James Graydon y los impresos de Antonio Bergnes de las Casas (1835-1840)
Authors: Moreno Doris , Rueda Ramírez Pedro 
Published: June 2021

Las sociedades bíblicas y misioneras comenzaron a distribuir Biblias y textos protestantes en España de manera regular a través de agentes en los años treinta del siglo XIX. En esta estrategia de distribución jugó un papel clave James Graydon. En Barcelona publicó el Nou Testament en catalán (1836) y la Biblia (1837) en español. Ambos fueron impresos en el taller de Antonio Bergnes de las Casas, además de otros impresos protestantes, de tono polémico y apologético, que el colportor distribuyó por toda la costa mediterránea. La red de agentes de Bergnes y el papel jugado por la publicidad en prensa fueron esenciales para la distribución de estos impresos protestantes, generando una importante respuesta católica en los diarios y en textos antiprotestantes, contribuyendo a profundizar el debate sobre la libertad religiosa y la libertad de cultos.

Algorithmic jingle jungle: A comparison of implementations of principal axis factoring and promax rotation in R and SPSS
Authors: Grieder Silvia , Steiner Markus D. 
Published: June 2021

AbstractA statistical procedure is assumed to produce comparable results across programs. Using the case of an exploratory factor analysis procedure—principal axis factoring (PAF) and promax rotation—we show that this assumption is not always justified. Procedures with equal names are sometimes implemented differently across programs: a jingle fallacy. Focusing on two popular statistical analysis programs, we indeed discovered a jingle jungle for the above procedure: Both PAF and promax rotation are implemented differently in the psych R package and in SPSS. Based on analyses with 247 real and 216,000 simulated data sets implementing 108 different data structures, we show that these differences in implementations can result in fairly different factor solutions for a variety of different data structures. Differences in the solutions for real data sets ranged from negligible to very large, with 42% displaying at least one different indicator-to-factor correspondence. A simulation study revealed systematic differences in accuracies between different implementations, and large variation between data structures, with small numbers of indicators per factor, high factor intercorrelations, and weak factors resulting in the lowest accuracies. Moreover, although there was no single combination of settings that was superior for all data structures, we identified implementations of PAF and promax that maximize performance on average. We recommend researchers to use these implementations as best way through the jungle, discuss model averaging as a potential alternative, and highlight the importance of adhering to best practices of scale construction.

The Effect of Increasing Music Volume on Reaction Time
Authors: Farrell Jane 
Published: June 2021

The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact that music volume has on reaction time. The significance of this study is that music volume is often suggested to be one of the factors and/or distractions that lead young drivers under the age of 25 to experience a high rate of vehicular accidents, and the goal of this study was to quantitatively assess the effect of increasing music volume on the reaction time of subjects in this demographic. Tactile reaction time, using the Brain Gauge, was used to record simple reaction time and choice reaction time data for 20 college students while the Neil Diamond classic “Sweet Caroline” was played at approximately 0dB, 20dB, 40dB, and 80dB. The results demonstrate a significant increase in simple reaction time with increased music volume and shows that louder music impacts an individual’s capacity to react to a stimulus. Although the study was not conducted while the individual was driving, the results strongly suggest that high music volume could significantly impair a driver’s response time.
Inductively Coupled Electrical Stimulation - Part 5: How many types of PEMF are there? A model and Excel Calculator
Authors: Dennis Robert 
Published: June 2021

To intelligently study anything, the first step is to intelligently define exactly what it is that you are studying. This has been a perennial challenge for the field of PEMF research. The most basic question in the field of PEMF research is: exactly what is PEMF, and if it is more than one thing, how many different things is it?
At the simplest level, PEMF is exactly what it stands for: Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Fields. But in common usage, it is more nuanced than that. This is a term not used by physicists, for example, to describe the pulses that are observed emanating from outer space. These are described by detailed spectral analysis of the electromagnetic emission being studied, but physicists do not generally use the generic term “PEMF”. It is also not a term used by electrical engineers to describe the electromagnetic fields emanating as a byproduct of the clocking of digital electronics or control of motors, even though, technically, these could be called pulsed electro-magnetic fields. The term and abbreviation “PEMF” is used almost exclusively to describe a specific type of electro-magnetism that is known or believed to have beneficial or therapeutic effects when applied to living systems.
In this study, we first address the fundamental weakness of the ubiquitous question “Does PEMF work?”
We then begin by re-framing the question with clearly defined terminology. Then we finish by presenting a model for dividing PEMF into tractable subsets based on quantifiable PEMF parameters. A spreadsheet is developed to model and calculate the total number of all possible forms of well-defined PEMF that could be tested for biological effects. The spreadsheet is available for use to aid research in this area.
Using default parameters selected by the author, it is concluded that there are about 1 quadrillion different variations of PEMF, which far exceeds the number of identified and theorized chemical species in the known universe. While this number by itself is intractable, when modeled in detail it does allow the variations of PEMF to be estimated and organized in a way that it becomes possible to approach the problem of the scope of PEMF within a tractable experimental or regulatory framework.
CDCP1 on Dendritic Cells Contributes to the Development of a Model of Kawasaki Disease

Published: June 2021

Abstract
The etiology and pathology of Kawasaki disease (KD) remain elusive. Cub domain–containing protein 1 (CDCP1), a cell-surface protein that confers poor prognosis of patients with certain solid tumors, was recently identified as one of the most significantly upregulated genes in SARS-CoV-2–infected children who developed systemic vasculitis, a hallmark of KD. However, a potential role of CDCP1 in KD has not previously been explored. In this study, we found that CDCP1 knockout (KO) mice exhibited attenuated coronary and aortic vasculitis and decreased serum Candida albicans water-soluble fraction (CAWS)–specific IgM/IgG2a and IL-6 concentrations compared with wild-type mice in an established model of KD induced by CAWS administration. CDCP1 expression was not detectable in cardiomyocytes, cardio fibroblasts, or coronary endothelium, but constitutive expression of CDCP1 was observed on dendritic cells (DCs) and was upregulated by CAWS stimulation. CAWS-induced IL-6 production was significantly reduced in CDCP1 KO DCs, in association with impaired Syk–MAPK signaling pathway activation. These novel findings suggest that CDCP1 might regulate KD development by modulating IL-6 production from DCs via the Syk–MAPK signaling pathway.
EQUILIBRI MUTEVOLI NELLA POLITICA ESTERA DELL'INDIA: FATTORI INTERNAZIONALI E INTERNI IN GIOCO

Published: June 2021

Dalla seconda vittoria elettorale di Narendra Modi, nel maggio 2019, le relazioni bilaterali USA-India sono state segnate da una cordialità senza precedenti toni. "Howdy, Modi!" è stato lo slogan usato alla cerimonia di ricevimento tenuta dal presidente Trump al Houston Strong Stadium il 22 settembre 2019, per accogliere il primo ministro indiano Narendra Modi, in visita negli Stati Uniti. In questa occasione, per la prima volta nelle relazioni bilaterali USA-India un presidente degli Stati Uniti ha elogiato sontuosamente un primo ministro indiano. Trump ha descritto Modi come un "amico leale" e ha celebrato i suoi risultati, in particolare "l'incredibile numero" di quasi 300 milioni di persone sollevate dalla povertà e 140 milioni di indiani elevati al rango di classe media. Trump ha sottolineato il processo elettorale democratico dell'India e i suoi tratti comuni comuni con la democrazia americana.
COVID–19 and Job Losses: Should Affirmative Action and Preferential Hiring still be Applicable in South Africa?
Authors: Nwosimiri Ovett 
Published: June 2021

The SARS-COVID-2 virus that causes the Coronavirus (COVID-19) has been having a challenging and devastating impact on finances and jobs worldwide. More specifically, in South Africa, the COVID-19 pandemic is having a crippling effect on jobs. Companies and businesses are struggling to operate and retain workers as revenue streams are drying up. Owners of companies and businesses have been forced to make difficult decisions. An example is the retrenchment of workers by some organizations because of the financial fall-out due to the coronavirus pandemic. Also, before the pandemic, South Africa had unemployment challenges, economic downgrading, and high levels of inequality (within the employment sector). These challenges bring to mind what the employment method and strategy will look like during the (post)-COVID-19. In view of these challenges, one question that comes to mind is: given the COVID-19pandemic and the fact that the job losses affected people of all races, should the policies of affirmative action and preferential hiring still be considered in South Africa? Thus, this paper is a philosophical reflection on COVID-19, job losses, affirmative action, and preferential hiring in South Africa. In reflecting on the above, this paper aims to show that affirmative action and preferential hiring should not be considered in South Africa during the (post)-COVID-19. I conclude that in the face of this tragedy, for the sustainability of the economy, everyone needs to work together to re-establish and reconstruct the country and build an inclusive economy.
