Awareness, Attitude, and Current Practices Toward Influenza Vaccination Among Physicians in India: A Multicenter, Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Vora Agam , Shaikh Ashfaque 
Published: August 2021

Background:Although annual influenza vaccination is recommended for healthcare providers (HCPs), vaccination rate among HCPs in India is generally low. This cross-sectional survey was conducted to evaluate physicians' awareness, attitude, and current practices toward influenza vaccination in high-risk groups in India.Methods:The survey was performed in June–July 2020, wherein consulting physicians, pulmonologists, diabetologists, obstetricians/gynecologists, or cardiologists across 14 cities completed a 39-item questionnaire consisting of 3 sections, one each on awareness, attitude, and practice patterns. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the study results. Statistical analysis was performed for comparison of subgroups by physician specialty, city of practice (metro/non-metro), and zone of practice (north/south/east/west). Level of statistical significance was set atp&lt; 0.05.Results:In all, 780 physicians completed the survey. Of these, 3.97, 53.08, and 42.95% had high, medium, and low level of awareness about influenza/influenza vaccination, respectively. Statistically significant (p&lt; 0.05) between-group differences were found by physician specialty and zone of practice. In terms of attitude toward vaccination of high-risk group subjects, only 0.9% physicians were “extremely concerned,” while the majority (92.56%) were “quite concerned” and 6.54% were a “little concerned,” with no reported significant differences between different subgroups. With regard to practice patterns, 82.82% of physicians offered influenza vaccines to their patients, 32.69% vaccinated 10–25% of patients per month, and 38.85% required and offered the vaccine to their office staff. Physicians' reasons for not prescribing influenza vaccines to patients included fear of side effects (16.54%), cost (15.64%), lack of awareness about availability (15.38%), absence of belief that it is beneficial (14.36%), history of side effects (13.46%), and patients' fear of needles (11.28%).Conclusion:These findings suggest the need to implement educational strategies among physicians to enhance their awareness about influenza vaccination and improve their attitudes and current practices toward influenza vaccination especially in high-risk groups in India.

In this contribution, we present results of non-linear dimensionality reduction and classification of the fs laser ablation ionization mass spectrometry (LIMS) imaging dataset acquired from the Precambrian Gunflint chert (1.88 Ga) using a miniature time-of-flight mass spectrometer developed for in situ space applications. We discuss the data generation, processing, and analysis pipeline for the classification of the recorded fs-LIMS mass spectra. Further, we define topological biosignatures identified for Precambrian Gunflint microfossils by projecting the recorded fs-LIMS intensity space into low dimensions. Two distinct subtypes of microfossil-related spectra, a layer of organic contamination and inorganic quartz matrix were identified using the fs-LIMS data. The topological analysis applied to the fs-LIMS data allows to gain additional knowledge from large datasets, formulate hypotheses and quickly generate insights from spectral data. Our contribution illustrates the utility of applying spatially resolved mass spectrometry in combination with topology-based analytics in detecting signatures of early (primitive) life. Our results indicate that fs-LIMS, in combination with topological methods, provides a powerful analytical framework and could be applied to the study of other complex mineralogical samples.

Background: The T1 substaging of bladder cancer (BCa) potentially impacts disease progression. The objective of the study was to compare the prognostic accuracy of two substaging systems on the recurrence and progression of primary pathologic T1 (pT1) BCa and to test a nomogram based on pT1 substaging for predicting recurrence-free survival (RFS) and progression-free survival (PFS).Methods: The medical records of 204 patients affected by pT1 BCa were retrospectively reviewed. Substaging was defined according to the depth of lamina propria invasion in T1a−c and the extension of the lamina propria invasion to T1-microinvasive (T1m) or T1-extensive (T1e). Uni- and multivariable Cox regression models evaluated the independent variables correlated with recurrence and progression. The predictive accuracies of the two substaging systems were compared by Harrell's C index. Multivariate Cox regression models for the RFS and PFS were also depicted by a nomogram.Results: The 5-year RFS was 47.5% with a significant difference between T1c and T1a (p = 0.02) and between T1e and T1m (p &lt; 0.001). The 5-year PFS was 75.9% with a significant difference between T1c and T1a (p = 0.011) and between T1e and T1m (p &lt; 0.001). Model T1m−e showed a higher predictive power than T1a−c for predicting RFS and PFS. In the univariate and multivariate model subcategory T1e, the diameter, location, and number of tumors were confirmed as factors influencing recurrence and progression after adjusting for the other variables. The nomogram incorporating the T1m−e model showed a satisfactory agreement between model predictions at 5 years and actual observations.Conclusions: Substaging is significantly associated with RFS and PFS for patients affected by T1 BCa and should be included in innovative prognostic nomograms.

Thymomas are the most frequent adult mediastinal cancers. Their etiology is unknown and their pathogenesis poorly understood. Racial, ethnic and environmental factors influence tumorigenesis in many cancers, but their role in thymomas remains unclear to date. In this study that included pretreatment thymoma cases from India and Germany (n = 37 and n = 77, respectively) we compared i) the prevalence of the thymoma-specific chromosome 7 c.74146970T &gt; A mutation of the GTF2I gene in type A and AB thymomas; ii) epidemiological features; and iii) the frequency of myasthenia gravis (MG). Due to a known predominance of GTF2I mutation in A and AB histotypes, we included only a marginal number of type B thymomas as a control group in both cohorts. While the distribution of histological types between the cohorts was similar (p = 0.1622), Indian patients were strikingly younger (p &lt; 0.0001; median age 50 vs. 65 years) and showed significantly lower tumour stage (Masaoka-Koga stage I) at primary diagnosis (p = 0.0005) than the German patients. In patients with known MG status (n = 17 in Indian and n = 25 in German cohort), a clear trend towards more frequent MG was observed in the Indian group (p = 0.0504; 48 vs. 82%). The prevalence of the GTF2I mutation (analysed in n = 34 Indian and n = 77 German patients) was identical in the two cohorts. We conclude that racial-ethnic and environmental factors do not significantly influence the most common molecular feature of thymomas but may have an impact on the timing of clinical presentation.
Antymuzyka i antyinstrumenty w tradycji kulturowej Polski
Authors: Przerembski Zbigniew Jerzy 
Published: August 2021

W tradycji muzycznej należącej do jej niepisanego nurtu, przekazywanego międzypokoleniowo, w relacji mistrz – uczeń, bez pośrednictwa pisma (zwłaszcza nutowego), oprócz manifestacji dźwiękowych mieszczących się w szeroko pojętym zakresie muzyki, istniało zjawisko określane mianem antymuzyki, rozbrzmiewającej zazwyczaj podczas różnego rodzaju rytuałów przejścia. Antymuzyka zawiera się w szerszym pojęciu wrzawy obrzędowej, rozumianej jako aktywność akustyczna inicjowana w celu apotropaicznym. Stanowi ona odwrotny biegun zjawisk dźwiękowych, które konwencjonalnie przyjęło się uważać za muzykę, stanowiąc wobec niej swego rodzaju opozycję. Antymuzyka związana jest w kulturze tradycyjnej z czasem obrzędowym, będącym odwróceniem czasu „normalnego”, nieobrzędowego.
W kulturze polskiej i europejskiej (ale też innych kontynentów) od wieków utrzymywało się przekonanie, że różnego rodzaju głośne manifestacje akustyczne należą do szerokiego spektrum zabiegów ochronnych przeciwko złym mocom, które, jak wierzono, miały wykazywać wzmożoną aktywność w czasie i miejscach interpretowanych w etnologii i antropologii kulturowej jako graniczne, przejściowe, znamienne zawieszeniem dotychczasowego porządku, powrotem do pierwotnego chaosu i otwarciem kontaktu z zaświatami. Obrzędowa wrzawa mogła też być wzniecana podczas sprawowania różnych zwyczajów i obrzędów cyklu rocznego, m.in. kolędowania, rytuałów zapustnych, śródpościa, wielkopostnych, wielkanocnych, wiosennych, sobótkowych, dożynkowych czy zaduszkowych. W cyklu ludzkiego życia przejściowe były: czas narodzin, inicjacja seksualna, ślub, zgon. Za miejsca przejścia uważano lokalne granice, rozstaje dróg, ale też pustkowia, cmentarze, wzgórza czy duże drzewa.
Wrzawa obrzędowa, antymuzyka może mieć postać wokalną lub instrumentalną, a częściej quasiinstrumentalną, z użyciem narzędzi dźwiękowych czy nawet różnych przypadkowych przedmiotów antyinstrumentów, a także antyinstrumentów, będących parodią czy zaprzeczeniem „normalnych” instrumentów. Należały do nich przede wszystkim diabelskie skrzypce i burczybas.
Piosenka religijna na festiwalu Sacrosong w latach 1969–1978
Authors: Śnieżek Barbara 
Published: August 2021

Festiwal Pieśni i Piosenki Religijnej Sacrosong (1969–1999) powstał w czasie, gdy stopniowo wchodziły w życie postanowienia Soboru Watykańskiego II, a wśród nich to dotyczące otwierania Kościoła katolickiego na nowe formy ewangelizacji. Równocześnie olbrzymią popularność w świecie zyskiwała muzyka rockandrollowa. Znalazła ona entuzjastów także wśród muzyków chrześcijańskich, którym rockowe brzmienia posłużyły do przekazywania treści religijnych. Lata 60. XX wieku to również czas, w którym znacząco wzrosło zainteresowanie gatunkiem piosenki, której w twórczości religijnej dały wyraz m.in. utwory francuskiego jezuity Aimé Duvala.
Pomimo trudnej sytuacji społeczno-politycznej PRL, zarówno moda na muzykę młodzieżową jak i na piosenkarstwo religijne bardzo szybko dotarły do grona zainteresowanych. Pierwszą sceną dla repertuaru religijnego w Polsce był festiwal Sacrosong, który w założeniach miał nie tylko sprzyjać powstawaniu i promocji nowych utworów w języku polskim, lecz również angażować w działalność religijną środowisko artystów i młodzież i w ten sposób przeciwdziałać ateizacji społeczeństwa.
W ciągu trzydziestu lat podczas ogólnopolskich Sacrosongów można było usłyszeć zarówno piosenki konkursowe, jak i pieśni, kantaty czy oratoria powstałe na zamówienie organizatorów. Wydarzeniom muzycznym towarzyszyły spektakle teatralne, wystawy, wieczory poezji, konferencje i dyskusje. W jury konkursu zasiadały takie osobistości, jak Wojciech Kilar czy Stefan Kisielewski, muzykę na zamówienie pisali m.in. Jerzy Bauer, Marian Sawa, a teksty – Roman Brandstaetter, Ernest Bryll czy ks. Jan Twardowski.
Artykuł porusza zagadnienia dotyczące historii Sacrosongów, repertuaru oraz społecznej i kulturotwórczej roli tego wydarzenia. Całości dopełniają refleksje związane z samym gatunkiem „głównej bohaterki” festiwalu – piosenki religijnej.

Published: August 2021

Background: Topological superconductivity emerging in one- or two-dimensional hybrid materials is predicted as a key ingredient for quantum computing. However, not only the design of complex heterostructures is primordial for future applications but also the characterization of their electronic and structural properties at the atomic scale using the most advanced scanning probe microscopy techniques with functionalized tips.Results: We report on the topographic signatures observed by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) of carbon monoxide (CO) molecules, iron (Fe) atoms and sodium chloride (NaCl) islands deposited on superconducting Pb(111). For the CO adsorption a comparison with the Pb(110) substrate is demonstrated. We show a general propensity of these adsorbates to diffuse at low temperature under gentle scanning conditions.Conclusion: Our findings provide new insights into high-resolution probe microscopy imaging with terminated tips, decoupling atoms and molecules by NaCl islands or tip-induced lateral manipulation of iron atoms on top of the prototypical Pb(111) superconducting surface.
Public-Private Partnerships for Elder Empowerment through Economic Productivity
Authors: Hoang Pham , Lang Cheng Ho 
Published: August 2021

Social Service and the Social Welfare Institution have a mutualistic partnership model. There are still a significant number of old individuals whose UDB IDs (unified database identifiers) have not been registered, according to Social Service and the Social Welfare Institution. Production Economic Enterprises (PEEs) is a program of the Social Service aimed at empowering communities. The Social Service and the Elderly Social Welfare Institution share responsibility for empowering communities. It is important to provide favorable conditions and an attractive environment for the elderly both inside the family and across the community as a way of demonstrating care for them. Using a productive economic business program, the social welfare institution establishes an activity group that enables the elderly to be more productive while still being able to make crafts in accordance with their abilities, thereby relieving the elderly of their burden on other communities, their families, and the government. It is being attempted to empower the elderly by developing profitable economic entrepreneurial activities in order for them to be self-sufficient. As one of the recreational activities, this lucrative economic business activity is carried out alongside other income-generating recreational activities to create a successful economic business enterprise
Variation of the Interplanetary Shocks in the Inner Heliosphere
Authors: Hajra Rajkumar 
Published: August 2021

Abstract
Observations of the solar wind plasma and interplanetary magnetic field in the ecliptic plane by the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft are utilized to study the variation of the interplanetary shocks (with magnetosonic Mach number >1) encountered in the inner heliosphere, between ∼1 and ∼15 au from the Sun. The overwhelming majority (∼76%) of the shocks are fast forward (FF) moving at an average shock speed (V
sh) of ∼458 km s−1 away from the Sun, and only ∼24% are fast reverse (FR) shocks with an average V
sh of ∼323 km s−1 toward the Sun. About ∼89% of the shocks are quasi-perpendicular with an average shock angle (θ
Bn) of ∼72° relative to the ambient magnetic field, and only ∼11% are quasi-parallel with an average θ
Bn of ∼32°. While the interplanetary coronal mass ejections are the major (∼89%) driver of the FF shocks, a significant part (∼41%) of the FR shocks are associated with the corotating interaction regions. The shock occurrence rate, with a peak at the heliocentric distance (R

h
) of ∼5 au, exhibits a clear decrease with the increasing R

h
. While the shock strength and propagation angle do not exhibit any systematic change with R

h
, V
sh increases with the increasing R

h
at a rate of ∼11 km s−1 au−1.
Spiral Structure Boosts Star Formation in Disk Galaxies

Published: August 2021

Abstract
We investigate the impact of spiral structure on global star formation using a sample of 2226 nearby bright disk galaxies. Examining the relationship between spiral arms, star formation rate (SFR), and stellar mass, we find that arm strength correlates well with the variation of SFR as a function of stellar mass. Arms are stronger above the star-forming galaxy main sequence (MS) and weaker below it: arm strength increases with higher

, where SFRMS is the SFR along the MS. Likewise, stronger arms are associated with higher specific SFR. We confirm this trend using the optical colors of a larger sample of 4378 disk galaxies, whose position on the blue cloud also depends systematically on spiral arm strength. This link is independent of other galaxy structural parameters. For the subset of galaxies with cold gas measurements, arm strength positively correlates with H i and H2 mass fraction, even after removing the mutual dependence on

, consistent with the notion that spiral arms are maintained by dynamical cooling provided by gas damping. For a given gas fraction, stronger arms lead to higher

, resulting in a trend of increasing arm strength with shorter gas depletion time. We suggest a physical picture in which the dissipation process provided by gas damping maintains spiral structure, which, in turn, boosts the star formation efficiency of the gas reservoir.
