Abstract

Background
Adolescences/youth (A/Y) make the transition to adulthood in good health, but there are particular public health challenges within this age group, such as injuries from accidents or violence, mental health problems, problems from substance use, problems from undernutrition and overnutrition, endemic diseases (e.g. malaria), and sexual and reproductive health (SRH) problems. Adolescent and youth-friendly health services (AYFHSs) provide access to information and services on prevention, diagnosis, counselling, treatment, and care and allow all people to safely reach services without travelling long distances. This study aimed to describe the existing services provided for A/Y at PHCs, assess the knowledge, perceptions, and practices of AYFHS among the healthcare providers (HCPs), and understand the medical officers of health (MOHs) perceived facilitators and barriers to integration of AYFHS at PHCs in Ogun State.
Methods
The study was a descriptive cross-sectional with a mixed-method approach. A checklist, questionnaire, and interview guide were used to collect data from the PHCs, HCPs and MOHs, respectively. The quantitative data were analysed via SPSS version 27. Qualitative data were transcribed verbatim, analysed manually and presented in narrations using rapid, deductive thematic analysis. The level of significance was set at a P-value < 0.05.
Results
Ten model PHCs, 32 HCPs, and ten MOHs participated in the study. In the assessment of the facility readiness for AYFHSs, basic amenities, medical equipment, etc., were available or adequate, but there was a lack or absence of clearly visible signboards, comfortable waiting areas, displays of IEC materials, and confidentiality procedures and practices.
More than 80% and 62.5% of the HCPs had good knowledge and positive perceptions of providing AYFHS, respectively. There were statistically significant associations between the overall perception scores of the respondents and the practices of some AYFHSs, such as A/Y having a consultation without an appointment (p=0.020). In the interviews with the MOHs, some factors were identified as facilitators (e.g. existing relationships with NGOs for support) and barriers (e.g. inadequate staffing) to the AYFHS.
Conclusion
Most of the PHCs in this study are inadequately prepared to provide AYFHSs and fall short of national recommendations. Most of the identified barriers to AYFHS integration were health system-related.
A Study of Privacy-Related Data Collected by Android Apps

Abstract

Many Android apps collect data from users, and the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) mandates clear disclosures of such data collection. However, apps often use third-party code, complicating accurate disclosures. This paper investigates how accurately current Android apps fulfill these requirements.
In this work, we present a multi-layered definition of privacy-related data to correctly report data collection in Android apps. We further create a dataset of privacy-sensitive data classes that may be used as input by an Android app.
This dataset takes into account data collected both through the user interface and system APIs. Based on this, we implement a semi-automated prototype that detects and labels privacy-related data collected by a given Android app. We manually examine the data safety sections of 70 Android apps to observe how data collection is reported, identifying instances of over- and under-reporting. We compare our prototype’s results with the data safety sections of 20 apps revealing reporting discrepancies. Using the results from two Messaging and Social Media apps (Signal and Instagram), we discuss how app developers under-report and over-report data collection, respectively, and identify inaccurately reported data categories.
A broader study of 7,500 Android apps reveals that apps most frequently collect data that can partially identify users. Although system APIs consistently collect large amounts of privacy-related data, user interfaces exhibit some more diverse data collection patterns. A more focused study on various domains of apps reveals that the largest fraction of apps collecting personal data belong to the domain of Messaging and Social Media. Our findings show that location is collected frequently by apps, specially from the E-commerce and Shopping domain. However, it is often under-reported in app data safety sections. Our results highlight the need for greater consistency in privacy-aware app development and reporting practices.

Published: December 2024

Abstract

Background: The potential positive effects of mass media stakeholders in health promotion have long been recognized. Health promotion interventions may benefit from exposure in mass media by attracting public attention and political support. More formal and partnership-based engagement of mass media may have even larger impact potentials. Nevertheless, few projects have included mass media as formal partners in health promotion interventions. The aim of the present study is to identify potentials and barriers for the engagement of mass media stakeholders in health promotion
Methods: Project SoL, a community-based health promotion intervention carried out in two municipalities in Denmark, applied the supersetting approach to establish a formal partnership with local mass media, supermarkets, childcare centres, and primary schools in efforts to promote healthier eating and physical activity among families with young children.
Six semi-structured in-depth interviews with mass media stakeholders involved in Project SoL were carried out to identify barriers and drivers for engagement of local mass media in health promotion.
Results: Thematic data analysis revealed that engagement of mass media stakeholders was promoted by potentials for 1) exercising corporate social responsibility, 2) adopting a broad and positive understanding of the concept of health and 3) attracting the attention of a large audience. In contrast, barriers for their engagement included 1) inflexible organizational structures of mass media, 2) lack of financial and human resources and 3) a demand to maintain a disseminating and neutral role in the mediascape.
Conclusions:The findings suggest that engagement of mass media stakeholders as formal partners may strengthen health promotion interventions and aid the development of new health promotion strategies in local community settings

Published: December 2024

Abstract

Background
Multiple studies have demonstrated the association between Quality of Life (QoL) and the prevalence of caries, periodontitis, and tooth loss. However, the role of the position and location of tooth loss in impacting QoL remains unclear.
Aim
Evaluate the effect of tooth loss, including anterior losses, on Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) and Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) in Chileans aged 15 years and older who participated in the ENS 2016–2017.
Methods
A total of 5473 individuals participated in this study. HRQoL was measured using the EQ-5D questionnaire, while OHRQoL was assessed through a general question (GQ/ENS) and five specific questions (SQ/ENS). An analysis of variance test was performed to determine how difference or variation in number(s) of teeth in study participants affected their HRQoL Odds ratios with corresponding 95% confidence intervals were calculated using multinomial logistic regression to determine how, and to what degree, anterior tooth loss was associated both with HRQOL and OHRQOL in the study sample.
Results
The number of remaining teeth was significantly higher in the 'No problems' group across all EQ-5D dimensions, except Anxiety/Depression. The largest difference was in Self-care, where ‘No problems’ had a mean of 20.18 teeth compared to 6.43 in the ‘Problematic’ group. Anxiety/Depression showed higher odds of ‘Some problems’ with upper anterior tooth loss, while 'Usual Activities' showed higher odds of ‘problematic’ with lower anterior tooth loss. In OHRQoL, participants with an ‘Excellent’ perception had a mean of 24.32 teeth, and both upper and lower anterior tooth loss increased the odds of poor oral health self-perception.
Conclusions
Tooth loss significantly impacts both HRQoL and OHRQoL, with more remaining teeth associated with better outcomes, while anterior tooth loss is linked to worse self-perceived oral health.
A Comprehensive Assessment of Decision Making, Communication and Data Extraction in Multi-Agent System

Published: December 2024

Abstract

This research focuses on assessing the application of agent-based communication and self-navigation to achieve tasks such as image fusion. In this multi-agent system experiment, agents are tasked with a common goal: accessing a shared environment with no more than a 5% overlap between each other. The resulting data—whether images, video, or other types of recordings—are fused or merged to create a comprehensive view of the accessed area. Various communication patterns (topologies) are employed within the multi-agent system to minimize communication delays. Agents utilize Mesh, Star, or Ring topologies as needed, and based on the topology applied at any given instance, a lead agent assists with baseline orientation, referencing the positions and angles of other agents for efficient navigation and data collection. Through this collective effort, the system aims to create a comprehensive representation of the object or dataset by combining multiple images. This synthesis enhances the system's capacity for thorough analysis and informed decision-making. At its core, the primary objective of this endeavor is to address existing research gaps concerning communication self-navigation and image (data) fusion within multi-agent systems. The focus lies in developing a methodology that enables agents to autonomously navigate and communicate, guided by their specific interests in target objects. This autonomy empowers agents to efficiently gather data and collaborate towards identifying and analyzing objects of interest. Central to achieving this objective is the optimization of communication protocols within the multi-agent system. This optimization involves transitioning between different topology systems, each meticulously designed to handle delays caused by specific perturbations affecting the system. By adapting the communication topology to the prevailing conditions, the research aims to enhance the efficiency and reliability of data exchange among agents. Moreover, the research endeavors to strengthen coordination within the multi-agent system, particularly in scenarios where communication is challenged or contested. This is achieved through the implementation of refined data pooling strategies, wherein agents collaborate to aggregate and analyze data effectively. By optimizing data pooling methodologies, the research aims to improve the accuracy and reliability of decision-making processes within the system. An essential aspect is conducting a comprehensive literature review to identify potential enhancements in agents' communication strategies based on the importance of the data being exchanged. By leveraging insights from existing research, the development of robust communication protocols tailored to the specific needs and objectives of the multi-agent system is presented.
ИДЕОЛОГИЯ КОНСЕРВАТИВНОЙ АЛЬТЕРНАТИВЫ РЕФОРМЫАНГЛИЙСКОГО УГОЛОВНОГО ПРАВОСУДИЯ В XVIII ВЕКЕ
Authors: С.А. Васильева , И.М. Эрлихсон 
Published: December 2024

Авторы анализируют трактат «Размышления об исполнительном производстве относительно наших уголовных законов, в особенности на выездных судебных сессиях» (1784), принадлежащий перу известного английского общественного деятеля XVIII в. Мартина Мэдана. Его интеллектуальное наследие является важным элементом дискуссии о путях и методах реформирования уголовно-исполнительной системы Англии XVIII в. уже после принятия Пенитенциарного акта 1779 г. В статье также реконструируется биография М. Мэдана, показано его профессиональное становление сначала как юриста, а затем блестящего методистского проповедника. Именно доскональное знание им английских правовых норм и виртуозное владение теологической риторикой стало тем фактором, который обеспечил его трактату широкое общественное признание, выразившееся не только в коммерческом успехе, но и конкретной юридической практике. Анализ трактата Мэдана в рамках современного ему историко-правового контекста с опорой на методологический аппарат «социальной истории культурных практик» и «интеллектуальной истории» позволил рассмотреть проблему общественного отношения к преступности на трех уровнях исследования: юридических механизмов отправления правосудия, институциональных отношений и общественного дискурса.
The article presents the analysis of the treatise by Martin Madan, a famous English public figure of the 18th century, under the title “Thoughts on Executive Justice: With Respect to Our Criminal Laws, Particularly on the Circuits. Dedicated to the Judges of Assize; ...By a Sincere Well-wisher to the Public” (1784). Madan’s intellectual heritage, factually unstudied in Russia, is a crucial element of the discussion on ways and methods to reform English criminal and penal system after the adoption of the Penitentiary act in 1779. The article reconstructs the biography of Madan, shows his professional formation, at first as a lawyer, and then as a brilliant Methodist preacher. In fact, it was his thorough knowledge of English legal regulations and virtual skills in theological rhetoric, that brought him public recognition, commercial success and profitable law practice. Madan’s treatise is analyzed in its modern historical and legal context on the base; methodological instruments of social history of culture practices and intellectual history have been used. This led us to observe the issue of public attitude to criminality on several research levels: law mechanisms of administration of justice, institutional relations and public discourse.
ОТ КРЕСТЬЯНИНА ДО АРХАНГЕЛА: ОБРАЗ НЕМЕЦКОГОМИХЕЛЯ В ГОДЫ ПЕРВОЙ МИРОВОЙ ВОЙНЫ
Authors: А.С. Медяков 
Published: December 2024

В статье исследуется аллегорическая фигура немецкого Михеля как наиболее распространенная форма визуализации немецкой нации в годы Первой мировой войны. Рассматривается эволюция образа Михеля, а именно появившаяся под влиянием военных событий тенденция к его героизации и сакрализации. В качестве основного источника выступают почтовые открытки – наиболее востребованный и массовый визуальный медиум своего времени, который позволяет изучать как публично распространявшиеся пропагандистские послания, так и частный отклик на них. На основании анализа текстов личных посланий делаются выводы о различающейся востребованности предлагавшихся пропагандой образов Михеля. В результате срав-нения места фигуры Михеля в пропагандистских открытках стран Антанты выдвигается тезис о неполноценности образа германского врага в России.
The article examines the allegorical figure of the German Michel as the most common form of visualization of the German nation during the First World War. It deals with the evolution of the image of Michel, namely, the tendency to its heroization and sacralization, which appeared under the influence of military events. The main source of study are postcards - the most popular and massive visual medium of its time, which allows to study both publicly disseminated propaganda messages, and a private response to them. Based on the analysis of the texts of personal messages, conclusions are drawn about the differing relevance of the images of Michel proposed by the propaganda. The comparison of the role of Michel in the postcard propaganda of the Entente countries leads to the conclusion that the image of the German enemy in Russia was defective.
ПРОШЛОЕ, КОТОРОЕ НЕ УХОДИТПАМЯТЬ О ВОЙНЕ И ХОЛОКОСТЕ В ЛИТВЕ
Authors: А.А. Линченко 
Published: December 2024

Автор рецензирует монографию Екатерины Махотиной о взаимодействии официальной исторической политики и мемориальных культур в Литве[2]. Е. Махотина стремится преодолеть тезис радикального конструктивизма о тотальной конструируемости исторической памяти, раскрывая важную роль альтернативных культур памяти. Показано, что в историческом сознании современного литовского общества Холокост является «выученной», но не «пережитой памятью», «чужой» историей.
The article is a review of the monograph by E. Makhotina (Makhotina E. «Erinnerungen an den Krieg – Krieg der Erinnerungen: Litauen und der Zweite Weltkrieg». Gottingen, Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 2017. 478 p.).The monograph is the first fundamental study of the holistic context of the interaction of official historical policy and various memorial cultures in Lithuania throughout its half-century history (1945-2015). The author of the book seeks to overcome the thesis of radical constructivism about the total construction of historical memory, showing the important role of alternative versions of historical memory, counter-memory and memorial cultures that do not fit into the space of influence of official historical policy. The idea that the contradictions and conflicts of memory in post-Soviet Lithuania can hardly be productively studied outside of a detailed study of the hidden and obvious contradictions in the historical policy of the Soviet period, its degradation and devaluation in the era of gaining independence, is substantiated. One of the most important conclusions of the monograph is the recognition of the fact that in the historical consciousness of modern Lithuanian society the Holocaust is a "learned", but not experienced memory, an "alien" history, the mourning of the dead neighbours.

Authors: Li Yong , Guan Changsheng , Wang Hui 
Published: December 2024

Introduction
Considering the influence of the shrinkage and creep of high-strength concrete on the vertical deformation and stress of structures, the mechanical behaviour during the construction of the giant column frame-core tube-extension arm truss structure system was simulated by using finite element analysis software.

Methods
For the engineering example of the Wuhan Center, and the safety of the construction channel under a moving load was analysed numerically. The results indicated that that there was a difference in deformation between the elevation position and design position of floor; the maximum deformation difference occurred in the middle of the tower.

Results
Under moving loads, the displacement and stress of the channel were 0.5 times that under full load.

Conclusion
As the load moved, the maximum displacement and stress of steel beam and plate changed, while the displacement and stress of the supports and the placed beam and plate remained unchanged and maintained the minimum value.

This chapter explores the significant contribution of the Vincentian charism to the mission of the Church. The Vincentian charism is a continually evolving and deepening reality. The uniqueness and specificity of the Vincentian family cannot be fully understood without considering the involvement of St. Louise de Marillac and numerous laypersons. According to Vincentian spirituality, the salvation of the poor is central to the Church’s mission. Not only are the weak and poor served, but they also evangelize – they are “lords and masters” to those journeying toward the Kingdom of God.
Perspectives of Clients and Health Care Professionals on the Opportunities for Digital Health Interventions in Cerebrovascular Disease Care: Qualitative Descriptive Study
Authors: Härkönen Henna , Myllykangas Kirsi , Kärppä Mikko , Rasmus Kirsi Maaria , Gomes Julius Francis , Immonen Milla , Hyvämäki Piia , Jansson Miia 
Published: December 2024

Background
Cerebrovascular diseases (CVDs) are a major and potentially increasing burden to public health. Digital health interventions (DHIs) could support access to and provision of high-quality health care (eg, outcomes, safety, and satisfaction), but the design and development of digital solutions and technologies lack the assessment of user needs. Research is needed to identify opportunities to address health system challenges and improve CVD care with primary users of services as the key informants of everyday requirements.

Objective
This study aims to identify opportunities for DHIs from clients’ and health care professionals’ perspectives to address health system challenges and improve CVD care.

Methods
This study used a qualitative, descriptive approach. Semistructured, in-person interviews were conducted with 22 clients and 26 health care professionals in a single tertiary-level hospital in Finland between August 2021 and March 2022. The data were analyzed using a deductive and inductive content analysis.

Results
Identified opportunities for DHIs in CVD care were organized according to clients, health care professionals, and data services and classified into 14 main categories and 27 generic categories, with 126 subcategories of requirements. DHIs for clients could support the long-term management of health and life changes brought on by CVD. They could provide access to personal health data and offer health information, support, and communication possibilities for clients and their caregivers. Health care professionals would benefit from access to relevant patient data, along with systems and tools that support competence and decision-making. Intersectoral and professional collaboration could be promoted with digital platforms and care pathways. DHIs for data services could enhance care planning and coordination with novel predictive data and interoperable systems for data exchange.

Conclusions
The combined study of client and health care professional perspectives identified several opportunities and requirements for DHIs that related to the information, availability, quality, acceptability, utilization, efficiency, and accountability challenges of health systems. These findings provide valuable social insights into digital transformation and the emerging design, development, and use of user-centered technologies and applications to address challenges and improve CVD care and health care.
