Porin Karjarannan asuntomessualueen taidekilpailu
Authors: Hovi-Assad Pia Mirjami 
Published: January 2021

Asuntomessuja on järjestetty Suomessa vuodesta 1970 lähes vuosittain. Vuonna 2018 asuntomessut järjestettiin Porin Karjarannan alueella. Jo messujen järjestelyn alkuvaiheessa mukaan suunnitteluprosessiin haluttiin ottaa kuvataiteilijoita. Tavoitteena oli, että yhdessä kaupunkisuunnittelijoiden kanssa taiteilijat kehittäisivät alueen asuin- ja elinympäristöä. Tätä tukemaan järjestettiin taidekilpailu Satakunnan alueen taiteilijoille. Tässä artikkelissa kohteenani on Karjarannan alueen suunnitteluprosessi. Tarkastelen sitä, toteutuiko Karjarannan taidekilpailun kautta yhteissuunnittelua, ja jos näin tapahtui, missä vaiheessa taide sisällytettiin suunnitteluprosessiin. Kyselyn avulla tutkin sitä, kuinka asukkaat suhtautuvat asiantuntijavetoiseen taidekilpailuun. Millaista julkista taidetta asukkaat tahtoisivat asumisympäristöönsä? Viittaan Tarja Kekäläisen, Laura Uimosen, Malcolm Milesin, Cher Kraus Knightin ja Sharon Zukinin julkista taidetta koskeviin teoriakeskusteluihin. Tutkimusmateriaalina olen käyttänyt kirjallista ja kuvamateriaalia Karjarannan taidekilpailusta sekä haastatteluja.Tutkimus osoittaa, että Karjarannan taidekilpailu edustaa Suomessa yleisesti käytettävää mallia siitä, kuinka julkisen taiteen suunnittelu ja kilpailut yleensä etenevät. Yhteissuunnittelu toteutui kilpailun työryhmän ja osallistuvien taiteilijoiden välillä. Kyselytutkimuksen tuloksen puolestaan osoittavat, että korkea osuus vastaajista kannattaa kansalaisten oikeutta ilmaista mielipiteensä taidekilpailuista. Vastaajat näkisivät asuinalueella mieluiten sellaista taidetta, joka viittaa alueen historiaan. Parhaimmillaan julkinen taide luo ainutkertaisen tarinan, joka tukee alueen identiteettiä.

Rupture Process of the Mainshock of the 2019 Ridgecrest Earthquake Sequence from Waveform Inversion with Empirical Green’s Functions
Authors: Wu Shuang-Lan , Nozu Atsushi , Nagasaka Yosuke 
Published: January 2021

ABSTRACTThe 2019 Mw 7.1 mainshock of the Ridgecrest earthquake sequence, which was the first event exceeding Mw 7.0 in California since the 1999 Hector Mine earthquake, caused near-fault ground motions exceeding 0.5g and 70  cm/s. In this study, the rupture process and the generation mechanism of strong ground motions of the mainshock were investigated through waveform inversions of strong-motion data in the frequency range of 0.2–2.0 Hz using empirical Green’s functions (EGFs). The results suggest that the mainshock involved two large slip regions: the primary one with a maximum slip of approximately 4.4 m was centered ∼3  km northwest of the hypocenter, which was slightly shallower than the hypocenter, and the secondary one was centered ∼25  km southeast of the hypocenter. Outside these regions, the slip was rather small and restricted to deeper parts of the fault. A relatively small rupture velocity of 2.1  km/s was identified. The robustness of the slip model was examined by conducting additional inversion analyses with different combinations of EGF events and near-fault stations. In addition, using the preferred slip model, we synthesized strong motions at stations that were not used in the inversion analyses. The synthetic waveforms captured the timing of the main phases of observed waveforms, indicating the validity of the major spatiotemporal characteristics of the slip model. Our large slip regions are also generally visible in the models proposed by other researchers based on different datasets and focusing on lower frequency ranges (generally lower than 0.5 Hz). In particular, two large slip regions in our model are very consistent with two of the four subevents identified by Ross et al. (2019), which may indicate that part of the large slip regions that generated low-frequency ground motions also generated high-frequency ground motions up to 2.0 Hz during the Ridgecrest mainshock.

Published: January 2021

AbstractThe primary aim of this study is to use microseismic events to perform a stress inversion, which has often been excluded in past studies. New insights on the seismogenic structures and stress state in northeastern Taiwan can be acquired by applying 3D velocity structure relocation, raytracing techniques, and stress inversion methods to an entire database, which permits objective and reliable selection of data for analysis. This aforementioned approach allows us to avoid the influence of a subjective selection of seismic events. Confidence intervals are also used to show the uncertainty in stress orientation. Our results show that the seismogenic structure in northeastern Taiwan is subject to complex influences from the subduction of the Philippine Sea plate and the ongoing opening of the Okinawa trough. In addition, we observed that the seismic activity of northeastern Taiwan is rather complicated. By incorporating microearthquakes and the zonation that is obtained from microearthquake sources, it becomes possible to thoroughly understand the spatial distribution of seismogenic structures in this region. Furthermore, our results also provide essential details on background stresses that can be used to study stress transfer in future studies.

Published: January 2021

Background: The olive ridley sea turtle also known as the Pacific ridley sea turtle is a medium-sized species of turtle found in warm and tropical waters, primarily in the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Sea Turtles are an integral part of coastal and marine ecosystems, they have also been fundamental to the culture of coastal societies for millennia. But human activities over the past 200 years have massively tipped the scales against the survival of these ancient mariners, despite its conservation status the olive ridley are considered vulnerable. The aim of the study was to collect biochemical data on olive ridley sea turtles while drawing comparisons with previous published data on sea turtles. Methods: This research work was carried out in rescued Olive Ridley Sea Turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) which were stranded or rescued during various periods of breeding season from September, 2017 to April, 2018 by Trust for Environmental and Education (TREE) foundation, Vettuvankeni, Chennai, Tamil Nadu. The Clinical samples were collected from 7 sea turtles in rescue centers and examined for biochemical parameters analysis. The biochemical parameters measured were Glucose, cholesterol, Total protein, albumin and globulin, Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN), Creatinine, Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT), Calcium and Phosphorus. The statistical analyses of data were carried out by using student’s t-test. Result: The results of this study were more or less unfailing with previous studies but variations with other studies may result from values depends upon the geospatial distribution such as species, age, sex, season, sample site, nutrition and management condition. The data in this research was more specific to olive ridley sea turtles, indicating need to standardize reference values because of little know data on these turtle species, which are intended for health evaluation for free-ranging and captive/rescued sea turtles.
IMAGENS ARQUETÍPICAS NA OBRA DE ERNESTO SABATO: UM ESTUDO COMPARADO ENTRE SUA PINTURA E O ROMANCE O TÚNEL
Authors: Rodrigues Mascarenhas Vilma , Lima Torres José Wanderson 
Published: January 2021

RESUMO: O presente artigo apresenta uma análise intertextual das imagens arquetípicas do romance O Túnel (1948), do escritor argentino Ernesto Sabato, transpostas para suas pinturas, oportunizando, dessa forma, uma análise comparativa ainda não explorada da obra. Este estudo fundamenta-se na perspectiva da Psicologia Analítica aplicada à metodologia da Literatura Comparada como instrumento da Crítica Literária, com base na imagem arquetípica da sombra como fio condutor da narrativa sabatiana, pois trata-se da confissão de um crime passional narrada por Juan Pablo Castel, protagonista do romance. O apoio teórico provém dos estudos de Jung (2002), Hillman (2018), Jacobi (2016), Ulson (1988) e Von Franz (2002), e no diálogo com as pinturas de Sabato: Algo ocorrido em meu Ateliê (1994) e Alguém observa o ateliê de um pintor ausente (1981), que ressignificam as sombras arquetípicas do texto literário para o texto pictórico, expressas no uso excessivo de tonalidades escuras, no caráter expressionista e perturbador dos personagens e no simbolismo da morte nas pinturas do autor. Portanto, o processo intersemiótico do texto literário de O Túnel (1948) para o universo pictórico configura-se como extensão da narrativa do autor, revelando a simbologia arquetípica das imagens como instrumento crítico na interpretação das linguagens literária e visual.

Abstract
Background Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) affects more than 200 million of the global population. PAD represents a marker for premature cardiovascular events. Patients with PAD, even in the absence of a history of myocardial infarction or ischemic stroke, have approximately the same relative risk of death from cardiovascular causes as patients with a history of coronary or cerebrovascular disease. Despite the high prevalence of PAD and the strong association with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, patients with PAD are less likely to receive appropriate treatment for their atherosclerotic risk factors than those who are being treated for coronary artery disease. Atherosclerotic risk factor identification and modification play an important role in reducing the number of adverse outcomes among patients with atherosclerosis. Risk reduction therapy decreases the risk of cardiovascular mortality and morbidity in patients with PAD. In this study we aim to evaluate the effectiveness of a lifestyle and risk factor modification intervention programme in achieving treatment goals for PAD risk factors Methods This is a randomised, parallel group, active-control trial to compare the effectiveness of the risk factor modification intervention programme to standard healthcare in a tertiary vascular care centre, in the reduction of modified risk factors in PAD patients. The primary outcome of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a lifestyle and risk factor modification intervention programme in achieving treatment goals for PAD risk factors at 3 and 12 months. The secondary outcomes are to compare the impact of the programme on clinical outcomes in PAD patients at 12 months. Secondary outcomes include amputation-free survival, clinical improvement, haemodynamic improvement, need for revascularisation procedures, outcomes of revascularisation procedures, changes in quality of life and the incidence of adverse events. Discussion This study will provide clear evidence on the effectiveness of a lifestyle and risk factor modification intervention programme in achieving treatment goals for PAD risk factors, through a high quality, well-powered clinical trial. Trial registration This trial was registered (11/07/2017) on the European Clinical Trials Database (EudraCT number 2017-002964-41) and ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03935776) which was registered on 02 May 2019.
How does the self-reported health of undergraduate nursing students change during their degree programme? Survey results from a Scottish University
Authors: Evans Josie , Andreis Federico , Cameron Dawn M , Eades Claire E 
Published: January 2021

Abstract
Background: The lifestyle behaviours, and the physical and mental health of nurses, are poorer than those of other allied health professionals, and of the general population. However, these were no less favourable among first year undergraduate nursing students at a Scottish Higher Education Institution (HEI) than among similar people of the same age. We compared health and health behaviours among the same cohort of undergraduate nursing students over the course of their degree. Methods: An anonymous self-complete repeat cross-sectional survey was administered during a timetabled teaching session at three time-points to undergraduate nursing students at the start of Years 1, 2 and 3 of their programme. They had received written information about the study previously. Results: Self-reported health did not change significantly over time, but there was a clear decline over the three years in the proportions of students rating their mental health as excellent/very good/good and a concomitant increase in those rating their mental health as fair/poor. Correspondingly, the mean WEMWBS wellbeing score declined over the three years, with the proportion of students with a score of <46 (indicating either high risk of major depression, or in high risk of psychological distress and increased risk of depression) increasing from one quarter to one half. This effect was captured and described using a Bayesian regression analysis. The most noticeable change in health behaviours was a decline in physical activity levels over the study period. The proportion of students managing 150 minutes of weekly physical activity decreased from three quarters to two thirds. This was reflected in higher self-reported sedentary time, although there were no observable trends over time in mean BMI, or proportions of students categorised as overweight or obese. Conclusions: This paper suggests that there may be a decline in mental health and in participation in physical activity among nursing students over the course of their degree. We recommend the incorporation of an intervention into the undergraduate nursing curriculum that promotes and encourages regular physical activity, offering students the opportunity to learn about health promotion and lifestyle change in practice, to improve their own physical health, and to address mental wellbeing.

Published: January 2021

Abstract
Background: As a complex phenomenon, sleep quality is difficult to objectively define and measure, and multiple factors related to sleep quality, such as age, lifestyle, physical activity, and physical fitness, feature prominently in older adult populations. The aim of the present study was to evaluate subjective sleep quality using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and to associate sleep quality with health-related physical fitness factors, depressive symptoms, and the number of chronic diseases in the middle-aged and elderly.Methods: We enrolled a total of 283 middle-aged and elderly participants from a rehabilitation clinic or health examination department. The PSQI was used to evaluate sleep quality. The health-related fitness assessment included anthropometric and physical fitness parameters. Depressive symptoms were measured with the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) short form. Data were analyzed with SPSS 18.0, and descriptive statistics and logistic regression analysis were used for the analyses.Results: Overall, 27.9% of participants in this study demonstrated bad sleepers (with a PSQI score of >5), 10.2% of study participants frequently used sleep medication to help them fall asleep, and 6.0% reported having significant depressive symptoms (with a CES-D score of ≥10). There are two major findings: (1) depression symptoms, the number of chronic diseases, self-rated health, and arthritis were significantly associated with a poor sleep quality, and (2) the 2-min step test was associated with longer sleep latency. These results confirmed that the 2-min step was associated with a longer sleep latency among the health-related physical fitness items.Conclusions: Our study found that depressive syndrome, chronic disease numbers, a poor self-rated health status, and arthritis were the main risk factors that influenced subjective sleep quality.

Abstract
Viviparity is an evolutionary innovation that enhances maternal protection of developing embryos relative to egg-laying ancestors. The behavioral, physiological, morphological, and life history pathways underpinning this innovation, however, remain unclear. We capitalized on the repeated origin of viviparity in phrynosomatid lizards to tease apart the phenotypic patterns associated with evolutionary transitions to live birth. We detected tandem reductions in mass-specific metabolic rate and mass-specific production in viviparous lineages, in turn reflecting decreases in thermal physiology and fecundity, respectively. These pathways reduce the energetic burden of viviparity without concomitant reductions in offspring body size. Although viviparous lizards are more prevalent in cold environments, transitions in thermal habitat only weakly predict parity mode evolution. Likewise, only cold tolerance adapts rapidly to thermal environment. Heat tolerance and preferred body temperatures track the thermal environment, but with a lag at million-year timescales. This lag likely reflects behavioral buffering: viviparous lizards thermoregulate to low body temperatures, regardless of ambient conditions. Rather than representing an adaptation to cold climates, the lower thermal and metabolic physiology of viviparous species are likely an energetic adjustment for reproduction that facilitated their prolific colonization of cooler environments.
