Abstract
Background
Active travel to and from a transit station may provide significant amounts of physical activity and improve health. The ease with which people can traverse the distance to the transit station may impede or support active travel. Therefore, transit stations that have features that are supportive of utilitarian physical activity would be desirable. This study aimed to characterize the built environment surrounding new light rail transit (LRT) stations in the City of Houston, Texas.

Methods
In 2014, we used a series of systematic protocols and a standardized environmental audit instrument, the Analytic Audit Tool, to collect data on segments (streets) that surround 22 LRT stations that were being newly built. Using Geographic Information System (GIS), we assembled all the segments that intersect a 0.25-mile circular buffer around each station for the audit exercise. Several 3- to 4-member teams of trained auditors completed the audit exercise on a subset of these identified segments. Our analysis were descriptive in nature. We provided the frequency distributions of audited features across the study area. We also followed an original algorithm to produce several composite index scores for our study area. The composite index score is indicative of the prevalence of physical activity friendly/unfriendly features in the study area.

Results
In all, we audited a total of 590 segments covering a total of 218 US Census blocks, and eight City of Houston super neighborhoods. Findings suggest the environment around the new LRT stations may not be supportive of physical activity. In general, the audited segments lacked land use integration; had abandoned buildings, had uneven sidewalks; were not bike-friendly, had minimal presence of public-recreational facilities that would support physical activity; and had significant physical disorder. Notably, certain attractive and comfort features were frequently to usually available.

Conclusions
Current findings, which will be compared to follow-up audit data, can be useful for future researchers and practitioners interested in the built environment around LRT stations.
RETRACTED ARTICLE: The sustainable development information management of Winter Olympics based on Internet-based wireless sensor network
Authors: Zhang Maomao , Zhai Feng 
Published: February 2019

AbstractEnvironment is the foundation for human survival. Sustainable development is the main direction of social progress and the common choice of human progress. The development of the Winter Olympic Games is closely related to the progress of mankind and society. Therefore, it is particularly important to study the sustainable development of the Winter Olympic Games. Based on this, an Internet-based wireless sensor for Winter Olympic environment information acquisition scheme is proposed. The hardware and sensor modules of the wireless sensor are designed, and the adaptive weighting algorithm is used to fuse several wireless sensor nodes. By testing and analyzing the communication ability of a single wireless sensor node and the error rate under different distance, the data is collected for the environment information of a Winter Olympic sports field. The results of the data collection are very close to the actual environmental parameters. It shows that the wireless sensor network system based on the Internet has strong stability and reliability in data collection. It can provide effective data support for the information management research of sustainable development of Winter Olympic Games.
Burn image segmentation based on Mask Regions with Convolutional Neural Network deep learning framework: more accurate and more convenient

Abstract

Background
Burns are life-threatening with high morbidity and mortality. Reliable diagnosis supported by accurate burn area and depth assessment is critical to the success of the treatment decision and, in some cases, can save the patient’s life. Current techniques such as straight-ruler method, aseptic film trimming method, and digital camera photography method are not repeatable and comparable, which lead to a great difference in the judgment of burn wounds and impede the establishment of the same evaluation criteria. Hence, in order to semi-automate the burn diagnosis process, reduce the impact of human error, and improve the accuracy of burn diagnosis, we include the deep learning technology into the diagnosis of burns.

Method
This article proposes a novel method employing a state-of-the-art deep learning technique to segment the burn wounds in the images. We designed this deep learning segmentation framework based on the Mask Regions with Convolutional Neural Network (Mask R-CNN). For training our framework, we labeled 1150 pictures with the format of the Common Objects in Context (COCO) data set and trained our model on 1000 pictures. In the evaluation, we compared the different backbone networks in our framework. These backbone networks are Residual Network-101 with Atrous Convolution in Feature Pyramid Network (R101FA), Residual Network-101 with Atrous Convolution (R101A), and InceptionV2-Residual Network with Atrous Convolution (IV2RA). Finally, we used the Dice coefficient (DC) value to assess the model accuracy.

Result
The R101FA backbone network gains the highest accuracy 84.51% in 150 pictures. Moreover, we chose different burn depth pictures to evaluate these three backbone networks. The R101FA backbone network gains the best segmentation effect in superficial, superficial thickness, and deep partial thickness. The R101A backbone network gains the best segmentation effect in full-thickness burn.

Conclusion
This deep learning framework shows excellent segmentation in burn wound and extremely robust in different burn wound depths. Moreover, this framework just needs a suitable burn wound image when analyzing the burn wound. It is more convenient and more suitable when using in clinics compared with the traditional methods. And it also contributes more to the calculation of total body surface area (TBSA) burned.

PURPOSE Cancer survivors may be at increased risk for opioid-related harms. Trends in opioid use over time since diagnosis are unknown. METHODS Using data from SEER and Medicare, we conducted multilevel logistic regression analyses to compare chronic opioid use (≥ 90 consecutive days) among opioid-naïve survivors of colorectal, lung, and breast cancers diagnosed from 2008 to 2013 and matched with noncancer controls. Among cases and controls with chronic use, we compared rates of high-dose opioid use (average ≥ 90 morphine milligram equivalents daily). RESULTS We included 46,789 survivors and 138,136 noncancer controls. In the first year after the index date (survivor’s diagnosis date), chronic use among colorectal and lung cancer survivors exceeded chronic use among controls (colorectal cancer: odds ratio, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.22 to 1.47; lung cancer: odds ratio, 2.55; 95% CI, 2.34 to 2.77). Differences in chronic use between survivors and controls declined each year after the index date. Chronic use among breast cancer survivors was less than that of controls each year after the index date. Survivors with chronic use were more likely to have a high daily dose than controls with chronic use in the first 3 to 5 years. CONCLUSION Among three large populations of older cancer survivors, chronic opioid use varied by cancer. However, by 6 years after diagnosis, survivors were no longer more likely to be chronic users than controls. Strategies for appropriate pain management during and after cancer treatment should take into account the risks associated with chronic high-dose opioid use.

Published: February 2019

The ageing population is rapidly increasing worldwide, and the alcohol-related disease burden in most Western countries is on the rise. However, very few studies assess alcohol use in older people. Here, a self-reported questionnaire was administered to all individuals aged 70 years or more who visited a social centre for older people in western France. The average age of the 98 subjects included in the survey was 79 years (range, 70–97 years; SD=6), and 57.1% (n=56) reported weekly alcohol consumption. An average consumption of over two standard units each day during weekends was reported by 53% subjects (n=52), and the same on each weekday was reported by 34% (n=33). Thus, a significant proportion of subjects aged 70 years or over consumed more alcohol than is recommended in current guidelines. The participants also reported that they rarely discussed alcohol consumption with their general practitioners. Alcohol use should be assessed regularly. District nurses and members of the primary care team should recommend strategies to help older people reduce their alcohol consumption.

Published: February 2019

Background/Aims The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of individualised physical rehabilitation programmes aimed at improving cardiovascular function in women with post-mastectomy syndrome. Methods The following methods were applied: theoretical analysis of scientific and methodologic literature data, impedance cardiography, and mathematical statistical methods. A total of 115 women with late symptoms of post-mastectomy syndrome who completed the interventions were included in this study. The participants were randomly enrolled into three groups for the first individualised programme (Group 1, n=45), for the second individualised programme (Group 2, n=40) and for the third individualised programme (Group 3, n=30). The first programme included aqua aerobics (aqua jogging, aqua building, aqua stretching), conditional swimming and recreational aerobics; the second programme included conditional swimming and Pilates exercises; the third programme included yoga-based exercises and stretching. The study was conducted during the ambulatory rehabilitation stage and lasted for 12 months. Results It was found that most of the investigated hemodynamic parameters in all groups steadily improved during the year of rehabilitation. The average values of stroke volume, cardiac output, left ventricular work, left ventricular power after 12 months of rehabilitation were statistically better (P<0.05) in the first main group compared with the second and third main groups. Conclusions Individualised programmes of physical rehabilitation were effective in improvement of cardiovascular function of all studied patients with post-mastectomy syndrome.

Published: February 2019

Caelifera is one of the largest and most diverse group of insects, and they are the dominant Orthoptera in agriculture ecosystems. We present here an inventory of Acridid fauna of the agricultural ecosystems in the Mzab valley (Septentrional Sahara, Algeria). Grasshoppers were sampled with quadrats in Béni Isguen, Ghardaïa and El-Atteuf, and we have expressed the species richness, sampling effort and relative abundance. The method used is that of quadrats sampling. The results revealed the presence of 27 species, divided into three families, Acrididae, Pyrgomorphidae and Tetrigidae. Among these families, we found that Acrididae are most diverse with six subfamilies. The subfamily Oedipodinae with 10 species was the most abundant, while the subfamily Tetriginae was the least abundant (represented by a one species). The value of the diversity index showed that the cultivated area of Béni Isguen is the most favorable for the development of many Caelifera. The abundance of grasses and low intensity of agricultural activity in this environment favors the presence of Acridid. We found that the Acridid community depends mainly on the nature and richness of vegetation cover, the intensity of agricultural activity and the type of irrigation.

Published: February 2019

Aims The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential for achieving local and systemic control after local recurrence of a chondrosarcoma of bone Patients and Methods A total of 126 patients with local recurrence (LR) of chondrosarcoma (CS) of the pelvis or a limb bone were identified from a prospectively maintained database, between 1990 and 2015 at the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital, Birmingham, United Kingdom. There were 44 female patients (35%) and 82 male patients (65%) with a mean age at the time of LR of 56 years (13 to 96). The 126 patients represented 24.3% of the total number of patients with a primary CS (519) who had been treated during this period. Clinical data collected at the time of primary tumour and LR included the site (appendicular, extremity, or pelvis); primary and LR tumour size (in centimetres); type of operation at the time of primary or LR (limb-salvage or amputation); surgical margin achieved at resection of the primary tumour and the LR; grade of the primary tumour and the LR; gender; age; and oncological outcomes, including local recurrence-free survival and disease-specific survival. A minimum two years’ follow-up and complete histopathology records were available for all patients included in the study. Results For patients without metastases prior to or at the time of local recurrence, the disease-specific survival after local recurrence was 62.5% and 45.5% at one and five years, respectively. After univariable analysis, significant factors predicting disease-specific survival were grade (p < 0.001) and surgical margin (p = 0.044). After multivariable analysis, grade, increasing age at the time of diagnosis of local recurrence, and a greater time interval from primary surgery to local recurrence were significant factors for disease-specific survival. A secondary local recurrence was seen in 26% of patients. Wide margins were a good predictor of local recurrence-free survival for subsequent recurrences after univariable analysis when compared with intralesional margins (p = 0.002) but marginal margins did not reach statistical significance when compared with intralesional margins (p = 0.084) Conclusion In cases of local recurrence of a chondrosarcoma of bone, we have shown that if the tumour is non-metastatic at re-staging, an increase in disease-specific survival and in local recurrence-free survival is achievable, but only by resection of the local recurrence with a wide margin.

Published: February 2019

CONTEXTAlthough an association between gender equality and contraceptive use has been confirmed among adult samples, few studies have explored this relationship among adolescents. An examination of whether adolescents’ contraceptive use is more prevalent in countries with higher levels of gender equality is needed to fill this gap.METHODSNationally representative data from 33 countries that participated in the 2013–2014 Health Behaviour in School‐Aged Children study and country‐level measures of gender equality—using the 2014 Global Gender Gap Index—were analyzed. Multilevel multinomial logistic regression analyses were employed to assess associations between gender equality and contraceptive use (condom only, pill only and dual methods) at last intercourse as reported by 4,071 females and 4,110 males aged 14–16.RESULTSIncreasing gender equality was positively associated with contraceptive use among both males and females. For every 0.1‐point increase on the equality scale, the likelihood of condom use at last intercourse rose (odds ratio, 2.1 for females), as did the likelihood of pill use (6.5 and 9.6, respectively, for males and females) and dual method use (2.1 and 5.6, respectively). Associations with pill use and dual use remained significant after national wealth and income inequality were controlled for. Overall, associations were stronger for females than for males.CONCLUSIONSMore research is needed to identify potential causal pathways and mechanisms through which gender equality and adolescents’ contraceptive use may influence one another.
Walk This Way: Fitbit and Other Kinds of Walking in Palestine
Authors: Meneley Anne 
Published: February 2019

This essay examines how meanings and practices of walking, particularly quantified walking, change according to place. Drawing together my own experience with a wearable computing device called a Fitbit at home and in my field site, East Jerusalem and the occupied West Bank of Palestine, I compare quantified walking and its focus on the self with other forms of walking that highlight place. I examine the relationship between self-monitoring and other-monitoring, especially in relation to walking in Palestine, and I explore how genres of mobility like nature walking or playing Pokémon GO might unfold differently in an occupied territory where the right to move is highly contested. I also explore Palestinian genres of walking, including the wander (sarha). In Palestine, walking becomes an important means not for pursuing personal health, but for cultivating a wider health of the land and knowledge of the nurturing relationship between land and the people who walk across it. Such practices of walking with or walking together can, I conclude, function as forms of kinwork.
خلاصة
يعالج هذا المقال طرائق تغير معاني وممارسات المشي على الأقدام، ولا سيما المشي المكمم (quantified walking)، وفقا للمكان. فاعتمادا على تجربتي الخاصة في استخدام جهاز حاسوب يدعى Fitbit والذي يمكن ارتداؤه ، في المنزل وفي مواقع بحثي الميداني في القدس الشرقية والضفة الغربية المحتلة في فلسطين، أقارن بين المشي المكمم واعتماده على الذات وبين أنواع أخرى من المشي التي تبرز المكان. كما وأقوم بفحص العلاقة بين المراقبة-الذاتية ومراقبة-الآخر، وخاصة فيما يخصّ المشي في فلسطين . وأستكشف أيضا إمكانية تجلّي أنواع متعددة من التنقل مثل التنزّه في الطبيعة ولعب بيكومون-غو (Pokémon GO) في منطقة محتلة حيث تخضع حرية الحركة إلى محدودية كبيرة. وأكاشف أيضا أنواعا من المشي على الأقدام في فلسطين بما في ذلك التنزّه (سرحة). إذ أصبح المشي على الاقدام في فلسطين بعيدا عن أن يكون وسيلة لتحسين الصحة الفردية، بل تحول إلى وسيلة هامة لتنمية علاقة راعية بين الأرض والناس الذين يسيرون عليها. وأخلص في نهاية المقال إلى النتيجة التي ترى أن الممارسات كالمشي معا أو كالمشي جماعةً تقوم مقام عمل-الأقارب (kinwork).

Published: February 2019

Abstract Buddhism taught by Sidhartha Gautama in India about two thousand years B.C. has spread throughout the world. From India to Tibetan Buddhism evolved, China and into Japan. Buddhism in Japan has distinct characteristics compared to Buddhism elsewhere. In Japan, Buddhism is mixed with a strong Japanese spirituality. This paper is the result of a brief research on the book, as well as the Buddhists by means of dialogue. The general objective of this paper is to get a general idea of the concept of Nichiren cosmology, particularly on the subject of the universe (environment) and life. The specific objective of this paper is the growing awareness to be open to understand other religions. It takes an attitude to want to investigate a religion without fanaticial attitude or prejudice. Key words: Nichiren Daishonin, Universe, Life
Eye tracking student strategies for solving stoichiometry problems involving particulate nature of matter diagrams
Authors: Baluyut John Y. , Holme Thomas A. 
Published: February 2019

Abstract
This study compared how students obtained and used information from particulate nature of matter (PNOM) diagrams as well as balanced chemical equations when asked questions about stoichiometry concepts such as limiting and excess reagents, and yield. The comparisons were made in terms of visual behaviors by examining eye fixations while students responded to a 30-item online instrument. Statistically significant differences were found between visual behaviors of high- and low-performers on seven items, mostly those that dealt with correctly identifying the limiting reagent for each diagram. High-performing students were found to have spent more time examining PNOM diagrams and transitioned more frequently between parts of the diagrams and other areas of interest (AOIs) than low-performing students did. This study gives an example of how underlying strategies students used to respond to conceptual stoichiometry questions may be triangulated by the use of both quantitative and qualitative techniques in relation to eye tracking visual behaviors.
