Authors: AbdulHadi Fahd , Al-Ajeel Fatemah , Sierra Tomas , Mohamed Assem , Heshmat Kareem 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
The manuscript focuses on benefits realized in sucker rod pump system performance, number of workovers, downtime periods, and overall production efficiency as a result of continuous steam injection (steam flooding) on a heavy oil pilot field. It also presents benefits on production performance as a result of real-time well optimization of sucker rod pump systems.
Implementation of real-time production optimization techniques to record behavioral changes provide for up-close field operational surveillance (allowing for faster response time).
The steam injection effect varies from between locations, based on the distance between injector and producer wells, along with the degree of down-hole interference.
The objective was to study steam injection effects on a group of wells and adjust the operational parameters of sucker rod pump systems based on individual well performance conditions. Real-time wellsite monitoring (including creating notifications, warnings and alarms to identify troublesome or non-optimized wells) and data-trend analysis allowed us to make necessary corrective actions continuously, which led to an improvement in well performance since steam injection started (thus optimizing productivity).
The continuous steam injection, supported by real-time optimization and constant sucker rod pump system performance adjustments, led to the following operational efficiency improvements: Reduced downtime related to troubleshooting activitiesReduced pump replacements (obtaining longer run life of downhole equipment)Improved pump efficiency (measured by improvements in production rates)Created a workflow for sucker rod pump system performance review and optimization opportunitiesImproved field-wide overall productionImprovement in sucker rod pump system efficiency (pump efficiency dyna card analysis was significantly improved in wells with low pump submergence after steam injection)
Maintaining the same downhole pump configuration, we found that pump efficiency (calculated by measured production rates) changed significantly: from low efficiency before steam injection (on colder periods) to higher efficiency (after steam injection). We also studied pump performance during the production phase and adapted the sucker rod pump system operational parameters to the wellbore's changing operation conditions, driven mainly by wellbore's temperature changes.
Applying continuous steam injection in a heavy oil area supported in improving pump performance, reducing downtime, and improving overall production from a specific number of wells, compared to lower production and higher downtimes (with larger number of wells), but without continuous steam injection.
Masking agent efficiency on odor removal from WWTP sludge drying process
Authors: Rousseille F. , Ventura A. 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
A study was executed in 2016 to determine the efficiency of two different neutralizers on odor perception from a sludge drying process. One of the products was injected by fogging system at the inlet of the odor control unit while the other was added directly to the washing solution of the last stage of the odor control unit, according to supplier recommendations.
Performance evaluations encompassed complementary approaches including both sensorial analyses and analytical measures. Odor analyses were performed via dynamic olfactometry according to European Standard EN 13725 coupled with hedonic tone approach according to VDI 3882. Additional analyses on VOC emissions were conducted using gas chromatography screening. In parallel, several odor panels composed of site operators and plant neighbors carried out observations on the WWTP and its perimeter. The main conclusions of this study illustrates:
• Only one test leads to a reduction of the odor concentration at the stack,
• Overall, neither of the two masking agents significantly reduce the odor concentration at the stack,
• The addition of masking agent seems to increase foul odor persistency,
• The local odor panel observed no significant improvement in odor reduction within the environment around the WWTP.
Grey water footprint of a dairy industry wastewater treatment plant: a comparative study
Authors: Yapıcıoğlu Pelin Soyertaş 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
Available fresh water demand of a growing population is a fundamental concern of water resource sustainability. Dairy industry wastewater treatment plants have been considered a major polluter due to the high organic content and large wastewater discharges. Grey water footprint (GWF) was developed by the Water Footprint Network (WFN) as a measure of the water pollution loading. In this study, four treatment scenarios including no treatment process (Scenario-1), primary treatment using Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) (Scenario-2), secondary treatment using DAF and a Upflow Sludge Bed (UASB) reactor (Scenario-3), and a DAF and UASB with a reuse application applying reverse osmosis (RO) (Scenario-4) have been studied for a full-scale dairy industry wastewater treatment plant. For these four scenarios, GWF assessment was undertaken using the WFN method by taking into consideration three pollutant parameters, chemical oxygen demand (COD), fats, oil and grease (FOG) and total suspended solids (TSS). The results show that the GWF of Scenario-4 for COD was lowest with the value of −5,609 m3/d and Scenario-1 has the highest GWF for TSS with the value of 41,026 m3/d. According to the assessment results, reuse applications decrease the GWF values.

Published: December 2018

Background
With a wide range of use cases in both research and clinical domains, collecting continuous mobile health (mHealth) streaming data from multiple sources in a secure, highly scalable, and extensible platform is of high interest to the open source mHealth community. The European Union Innovative Medicines Initiative Remote Assessment of Disease and Relapse-Central Nervous System (RADAR-CNS) program is an exemplary project with the requirements to support the collection of high-resolution data at scale; as such, the Remote Assessment of Disease and Relapse (RADAR)-base platform is designed to meet these needs and additionally facilitate a new generation of mHealth projects in this nascent field.

Objective
Wide-bandwidth networks, smartphone penetrance, and wearable sensors offer new possibilities for collecting near-real-time high-resolution datasets from large numbers of participants. The aim of this study was to build a platform that would cater for large-scale data collection for remote monitoring initiatives. Key criteria are around scalability, extensibility, security, and privacy.

Methods
RADAR-base is developed as a modular application; the backend is built on a backbone of the highly successful Confluent/Apache Kafka framework for streaming data. To facilitate scaling and ease of deployment, we use Docker containers to package the components of the platform. RADAR-base provides 2 main mobile apps for data collection, a Passive App and an Active App. Other third-Party Apps and sensors are easily integrated into the platform. Management user interfaces to support data collection and enrolment are also provided.

Results
General principles of the platform components and design of RADAR-base are presented here, with examples of the types of data currently being collected from devices used in RADAR-CNS projects: Multiple Sclerosis, Epilepsy, and Depression cohorts.

Conclusions
RADAR-base is a fully functional, remote data collection platform built around Confluent/Apache Kafka and provides off-the-shelf components for projects interested in collecting mHealth datasets at scale.

Published: December 2018

Background
Regular consumption of take-out and fast foods with sugary drinks is associated with poor quality diets and higher prevalence of obesity. Among the settings where such food is consumed is the food court typically found in shopping malls prominent in many countries.

Objective
The objective of this research was to develop a virtual reality food court that could be used to test food environmental interventions, such as taxation, and ultimately to facilitate the selection of healthier food choices.

Methods
Fourteen food courts in Sydney, Australia were selected to include those in the city center and suburbs of high and low socioeconomic status. Researchers visited the courts to collect information on number and type of food outlets, all menu items for sale, cost of foods and beverages and sales promotions. This information was used to assemble 14 food outlets typically found in food courts, and representative menus were compiled. The UNITY gaming platform was used to design a virtual reality food court that could be used with HTC VIVE goggles. Participants navigated the virtual reality food court using the head-mounted display, keyboard, and mouse and selected a lunch meal, including food and beverage. A validated questionnaire on presence within the virtual reality food court and system usability was completed at the end of the session. The constructs for presence included a sense of control, sensory fidelity, realism, distraction, and involvement. Questions were rated on a scale from 1 (worst) through 7 (best) for each of 28 questions giving a maximum total score of 196. The systems usability scale (SUS) that gives a final score out of 100 was also assessed.

Results
One hundred and sixty-two participants with a mean age of 22.5 (SD 3.1) years completed the survey. The mean score for total presence was 144 (SE 1.4) consisting of control: 62.1 (SE 0.8), realism: 17.5 (SE 0.2), involvement: 9.6 (SE 0.2), sensory fidelity: 34.9 (SE 0.4), and distraction: 24.0 (SE 0.3). The mean SUS was 69 (SE 1.1).

Conclusions
Virtual reality shows promise as a tool to study food choice for test interventions to inform practice and policy.

Terra Estrangeira: "as cores do desterro" da era Collor
Authors: Lopes Denise 
Published: December 2018

Terra Estrangeira, realizado em 1995, foi o primeiro filme brasileiro da safra pós-Collor a colocar o dedo diretamente na ferida sobre a condição de estrangeiro em que nos encontrávamos logo após o início do governo Collor, em 1990. Esse "estrangeirismo" de quem não se reconhece mais em seu próprio solo, não faz mais parte, não percebe perspectivas de ser, brechas de se estar, será representado esteticamente no filme de diversas formas, mas, principalmente, através de uma belíssima fotografia em preto e branco de Walter Carvalho, que se insere, literalmente, quase que como mais um personagem, no contexto do filme, preservando elementos ora amplos, ora dissonantes. como forma de expor sentimentos de perda, vazio, delírio e desterro. A narrativa é, em tom poético, também fragmentada. E algumas destas primeiras medidas decretadas por Collor, como o confisco da poupança, anunciado de uni aparelho de tevê pela então Ministra Zélia
Cardoso de Mello, vão mesmo servir de ponto de partida para o desenrolar da história.

pretendemos entender como que a memória da descoberta
do Brasil estará sujeita a um jogo variado de reformulações, por vezes se filiando num movimento parafásico a essa memória já dada, ao visar manter uma regularização com os implícitos que ela veicula. Ou, rompendo com a mesma numa direção polissêmica, instituir uma rede de filiações, uma memória do descobrimento, formulada pelo Carnaval e que nos remete tanto a ordem do verbal, quanto a ordem do icônico.

Corpo e Identidade - medicina e imaginação no thriller hollywoodiano contemporâneo Uma análise de A Outra Face (Face/Off), de John Woo
Authors: Ramos Lécio Augusto 
Published: December 2018

Este trabalho examina uma das formas da representação da Medicina moderna no cinema de ficção hollywoodiano e, em particular, o questionamento da identidade que as tecnologias médicas propiciam, através de Face/Off (A outra face), realizado em 1997 por John Woo, mestre chinês do cinema de ação coreografada e violência estilizada. A escolha de Face/Off se deve, em primeiro lugar, a um fascínio um tanto 1. escandalizado" pela forma como o filme trata a tecnologia médica no interior de um gênero nada realista que é o thriller policial, e, em segundo, por um certo desconforto causado pela exacerbação do
questionamento da identidade que o filme promove.

Abstract
Cause of death statistics is one of key indicators to determine the health status of Gianyar community for 3 years (2010-2012) as part of Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) study. The instruments used were Verbal Autopsy (AV) questionnaire and Causes of Death Form (FKPK). Data were collected from 13 puskesmas and 4 hospitals and analyzed descriptively according to ICD 10. Based on demoghraphic characteristics, the number of deaths is higher among males and older groups, and mostly occurred at home. The highest cause of death is non- communicable diseases (stroke, COPD, IHD, and malignant neoplasm of cervix uteri) followed by communicable diseases (TB and diarrhoea) and transportation accidents. The top ten causes of death in Gianyar show that a non-communicable and communicable diseases would be a double burden for health services. It is essential to establish integrated posts for elderly and NCD, and measures for prevention of TB transmissions and treaments as well as early detection malignant neoplasm of cervix uteri for women had married or sexually active, and to increase the implementation of safe traffic programs. Keywords : cause of death, vital registration, Gianyar
