Comparison of cold snare polypectomy and endoscopic mucosal resection for 3–10-mm colorectal polyps in end-stage renal disease patients
Authors: Oh Chang Kyo , Choi Ho Soon , Cho Young-Seok 
Published: November 2021

Background:
Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) have a higher incidence of clinically relevant complications, such as bleeding and perforation after polyp resection, compared to patients without underlying diseases. Cold snare polypectomy (CSP) is increasingly used for the removal of small polyps and diminutive polyps due to its shorter procedure time and low risk of bleeding and perforation. However, there have been few studies on the effectiveness and safety of CSP in patients with ESRD. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of CSP and endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) in ESRD patients.

Methods:
This study was a retrospective study. We performed propensity score-matched analysis in patients with ESRD who underwent endoscopic resection for 3–10-mm-sized colorectal polyps at Seoul St. Mary's Hospital, from January 2014 to December 2019.

Results:
After 1:1 ratio matching, 406 polyps were included: 203 polyps were resected with CSP and 203 polyps with EMR. There was no difference between the CSP group and EMR group in incomplete resection rate (4.43% vs. 1.97%, P = 0.16). There were no differences between the CSP and EMR group for immediate bleeding (5.42% vs. 7.88%, P = 0.32) and delayed bleeding (0% vs. 0.49%, P = 1.00). No perforation occurred in either group.

Conclusions:
There were no differences between the CSP and EMR group in terms of efficacy and safety. CSP can be one of the standard methods for the removal of 3–10-mm-sized colorectal polyps in patients with ESRD.
Modelling the episodes of care for iron deficiency anemia patients in a secondary-care center using continuous-time multistate Markov chain
Authors: Almilaji Orouba 
Published: November 2021

Background:
Despite the high prevalence of gastro-intestinal (GI) cancer in iron deficiency anemia (IDA), some IDA patients do not complete all the necessary GI investigations at the initial referral. As a result, existing cancers are diagnosed at a later referral with worse prognosis. The potential to detect GI cancer early depends on minimizing the delay time spent between the two consecutive referrals, where a patient did not complete investigations at the first referral, but at the second is diagnosed with positive GI cancer. This retrospective longitudinal study aims to highlight the proper methods to model these referrals.

Methods:
Using anonymized data of 168 episodes of care for IDA patients at an IDA clinic in a secondary care setting, continuous-time multi-state Markov chain is employed to determine the transition rates among three observed states for IDA patients at the IDA clinic, “incomplete investigations,” “negative GI cancer,” and “positive GI cancer” and to estimate the delay time.

Results:
Once in the state of incomplete investigations, an estimated mean delay time of 3.1 years (95% CI: 1.2, 5) is spent before being diagnosed with positive GI cancer. The probability that a “positive GI diagnosis” is next after the state of “incomplete investigation” is 17%, compared with 11% when it is followed in the state of negative GI cancer. Defining the survival as the event of not being in the state of “positive GI cancer,” the survival rate of IDA patients with negative GI cancer is always higher than those with incomplete investigations. Finally, being diagnosed with positive GI cancer is always preceded by the prediction of being considered “very high risk” at the earlier visit.

Conclusion:
A baseline model was proposed to represent episodes of care for IDA patients at a secondary care center. Preliminary results highlight the importance of completing the GI investigations, especially in IDA patients, who are at high risk of GI cancer and fit to go through the investigations.

Attitudes toward Psychological Help and Coping Behavior of Senior High School Students
Authors: Musni Ralph Vendel Emborgo 
Published: November 2021

Senior High School students are further uncovered to numerous shapes of psychological trouble (i.e. enthusiastic, social and scholastic issues) that can lead to passionate precariousness and sadness (Peterson, 2002). With this situation, guidance services are regarded vital. This study seeks to investigate among senior high school students on their attitude towards psychological help and their coping behavior. The study used the descriptive survey method among the Grade-11 and 12 students in one of the Universities in Cagayan de Oro City. Finding of the study revealed that Grade 11 and Grade 12 respondents were mostly 18 years of age and dominated by males. STEM strand was the biggest in group and most respondents came from the Public schools. Of the ATSPPHS four factor measurements, Factor-3 Interpersonal Openness got the highest mean value. Factor-4 Confidence in Mental Health Professional got the lowest mean value. Thus, the Grade -11 and 12 respondents have slight tendency and somehow positive attitude to seek professional and psychological help when they are confronted with problems and issues in life. Grade-11 coping response was through listening to music while the Grade-12 students’ coping response would to apologize to people whom they have in conflict with. Moreover, the result showed no significant difference on the respondents’ attitudes toward psychological help based on the four factors of ATSPPHC. However, there was a significant difference on students’ attitude sunder HUMMS and GAS strands toward psychological help particularly on factors two and three namely: Tolerance of Stigma Associated with Psychological Help and Interpersonal Openness respectively. The study revealed that there was no significant difference on the respondents’ coping behavior and attitude towards psychological help. It is imperative to conclude that there is a strong need to promote more awareness on the guidance related programs to encourage more Grade 11 and 12 students to trust and submit themselves for counseling whenever they face personal problems and issues in life. It therefore recommended the following: Develop a program that will address the student’s attitude and coping behavior toward seeking psychological help; Enrich the general guidance services program of the school; School personnel, teachers and counselors must undergo enrichment trainings, seminars to better understand why some students display high anxiety, fear, and depression in the campus.

Published: November 2021

As COVID-19 pandemic hit the world since early 2020, one business sector in many countries that struggling to survive is tourism and its derivatives, such as restaurants and hotels. This study aims to examine the accuracy of the Springate and Grover models in predicting bankruptcy, as well as the effect on stock prices of tourism, restaurant, and hotel sector in Indonesia. The results show that all sample tourism, restaurant, and hotel companies are bankrupt under the Springate model, whilst according to Grover's model the findings are varied during the study period. Furthermore, the Grover model is implied to be more accurate than the Springate model. The effect of both prediction models on stock price appears dissimilar. Springate's prediction model suggests a positive and significant effect on stock prices, whereas there is no strong evidence about the effect of Grover’s prediction model.

This research aims to assess the impact of the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Baltic stock market. To reach this aim, the methods of bivariate (OLS) regression and VAR-based impulse response functions are employed. We use daily new cases of COVID-19 as well as the cumulative number of COVID-19 cases as independent and OMX Baltic Benchmark GI index as dependent variables for our research. The research period, covering data from 2020 March 1st to 2020 November 21st, is divided into three separate periods, reflecting the different phases of the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. The results of the research revealed that the market reaction differs depending on the period; moreover, the Baltic stock market index was affected by new cases and total cases in a slightly different manner.
Organic Amendment Effects on Soil Carbon and Microbial Biomass in the Root Zone of Three Landscape Tree Species

Published: November 2021

AbstractThere is increasing interest in amending degraded soils with organic matter to improve soil quality, especially in urban areas where rehabilitation of damaged soils may enhance tree growth and provision of ecosystem services. To assess the potential of such organic amendments for producing a sustained alteration in soil biological characteristics, researchers studied the effects of three organic amendments incorporated into the root zone of three tree species on root development, soil carbon dynamics, and soil microbial biomass over one year beginning 20 months after amendment application. Soil amendment with leaf-based, and to a lesser extent, biosolids-based composts increased root length within the amended root zone of red maple (Acer rubrum), but not of pin oak (Quercus palustris) or chestnut oak (Q. montana). There was a concomitant increase in microbial biomass carbon for red maple. Across all species, sphagnum peat moss amendment reduced microbial biomass carbon by 47% compared to unamended root zones and suppressed maximum seasonal soil respiration relative to composts. In contrast, leaf-based compost increased microbial biomass carbon by 12% (P= 0.0989) compared to unamended root zones. Carbon/nitrogen ratios remained stable throughout most of the year except in the root zones of chestnut oak and pin oak amended with peat, where it declined 44%–85%. Total soil carbon was stable in all treatments, although unamended soils averaged about 40% lower than amended soils. Across all species and treatments, cumulative fine root length explained 19% of the variation in microbial biomass carbon. The study authors conclude that soil microbial activity can be increased by compost amendment of the root zone and that this increase is mediated to some degree by tree roots. In addition, stable C/N ratios suggest this alteration in the root zone may be sustainable. Further research may clarify whether compost amendment combined with tree planting can accelerate soil restoration.

AbstractSapwood may be lost due to wood decay fungi or mechanical damage. Assessing the impact of sapwood loss on the likelihood of tree failure has not been empirically tested. The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of the loss of sapwood on the flexural stiffness of tree trunks for different species and trunk sizes. Three tree species (Acer rubrum, Liquidambar styraciflua, andQuercus acutissima) were tested at two sites using pull testing techniques. A portion of the stem was mechanically removed and the trees were again pull tested. As the percent reduction in cross-sectional area increased, the percent reduction in stress to deflect trunks decreased linearly, regardless of species. Stress from sapwood loss was compared to an equivalent calculated loss in heartwood with the same cross-sectional area. The calculated loss of heartwood to cause an equivalent magnitude of stress was almost twice as large as cut area of sapwood. Trees were also tested by pulling in opposite directions with respect to sapwood loss. The percentage reduction in stress was greater for trees tested in compression.

Abstract. In 2009, the International Soil Moisture Network (ISMN) was initiated as a community effort, funded by the European Space Agency, to serve as a centralised data hosting facility for globally available in situ soil moisture measurements (Dorigo et al., 2011b, a). The ISMN brings together in situ soil moisture measurements collected and freely shared by a multitude of organisations, harmonises them in terms of units and sampling rates, applies advanced quality control, and stores them in a database. Users can freely retrieve the data from this database through an online web portal (https://ismn.earth/en/, last access: 28 October 2021). Meanwhile, the ISMN has evolved into the primary in situ soil moisture reference database worldwide, as evidenced by more than 3000 active users and over 1000 scientific publications referencing the data sets provided by the network. As of July 2021, the ISMN now contains the data of 71 networks and 2842 stations located all over the globe, with a time period spanning from 1952 to the present. The number of networks and stations covered by the ISMN is still growing, and approximately 70 % of the data sets contained in the database continue to be updated on a regular or irregular basis. The main scope of this paper is to inform readers about the evolution of the ISMN over the past decade, including a description of network and data set updates and quality control procedures. A comprehensive review of the existing literature making use of ISMN data is also provided in order to identify current limitations in functionality and data usage and to shape priorities for the next decade of operations of this unique community-based data repository.
Very early identification of a bimodal frictional behavior during the post-seismic phase of the 2015 Mw 8.3 Illapel, Chile, earthquake

Abstract. It is well-established that the post-seismic slip results from the combined contribution of seismic and aseismic processes. However, the partitioning between these two modes of deformation remains unclear due to the difficulty of inferring detailed and robust descriptions of how both evolve in space and time. This is particularly true just after a mainshock when both processes are expected to be the strongest. Using state-of-the-art sub-daily processing of GNSS data, along with dense catalogs of aftershocks obtained from template-matching techniques, we unravel the spatiotemporal evolution of post-seismic slip and aftershocks over the first 12 h following the 2015 Mw 8.3 Illapel, Chile, earthquake. We show that the very early post-seismic activity occurs over two regions with distinct behaviors. To the north, post-seismic slip appears to be purely aseismic and precedes the occurrence of late aftershocks. To the south, aftershocks are the primary cause of the post-seismic slip. We suggest that this difference in behavior could be inferred only a few hours after the mainshock. We finish by showing that this information can potentially be obtained very rapidly after a large earthquake, which could prove to be useful in forecasting the long-term spatial pattern of aftershocks.
