Authors: Xue Yannan , Zhang Minghong , Zhu Mulan , Chen Zhengwei 
Published: August 2024

ABSTRACT

As China's economy grows rapidly, there is a growing problem of rural water pollution, particularly regarding black and odorous water bodies. However, the current treatment technologies have proven inadequate in both nitrogen and phosphorus removal, primarily due to the insufficient carbon-to-nitrogen ratio in these black and odorous water bodies, resulting in low nitrogen removal efficiency. To address this challenge, the study proposes a novel treatment process, namely ‘aeration + sulfur-iron autotrophic denitrification MBBR’. This innovative approach was compared with the traditional ‘aeration + MBBR’ treatment process and blank control group over an 18-day experimental period. Ten water quality indicators were monitored and compared, including odor, turbidity, DO, pH, COD, BOD5, NH3-N, NO3-N, TN, and TP. The results revealed satisfactory performance of both treatment processes in terms of odor, turbidity, DO, COD, BOD5, and NH3-N indicators. However, significant disparities were observed in denitrification and phosphorus removal, with the new process achieving removal rates of 85.65 and 78.02%, respectively, compared to −2.30 and −4.05% for the existing process. Furthermore, the new process met the surface water class IV quality standard for all 10 monitored indicators, indicating its potential for effectively addressing the issue of black and odorous water in rural China.

Published: August 2024

ABSTRACT
Urban flooding intensifies with escalating urbanization. This study focuses on Xiong'er river as the study area and couples a 1D/2D urban flooding model using InfoWorks ICM (Integrated Catchment Modeling). Ten scenarios are set respectively with a rainfall return period of 5a 10a, 20a, 50a, and 100a, alongside rainfall durations of 1 and 24 h. Subsequently, the H-V (hazard–vulnerability) method was applied to evaluate urban flooding risk. Three indicators were selected for each of hazard factors and vulnerability factors. The relative weight values of each indicator factor were calculated using the AHP method. The result shows that (1) flood depth, rate, and duration escalate with longer rainfall return periods, yet decrease as the duration of rainfall increases; (2) as the rainfall return period lengthens, the proportion of node overflow rises, whereas it diminishes with longer rainfall durations, leading to an overall overloaded state in the pipeline network; and (3) the distribution in the research area is mainly low-risk areas, with very few extremely high-risk. Medium to high-risk areas are mainly distributed on both sides of the river, in densely built and low-lying urban areas. This study demonstrates that the model can accurately simulate urban flooding and provide insights for flood analyses in comparable regions.

Published: August 2024

Background
Adverse childhood experiences are strongly associated with mental disorders in young people. Parenting interventions are available through community health settings and can intervene with adverse childhood experiences that are within a parent’s capacity to modify. Technology can minimize common barriers associated with engaging in face-to-face parenting interventions. However, families experiencing adversity face unique barriers to engaging with technology-assisted parenting interventions. Formative research using co-design methodology to provide a deep contextual understanding of these barriers can help overcome unique barriers and ensure these families can capitalize on the benefits of technology-assisted parenting interventions.

Objective
This study aims to innovate the parenting support delivered by a community health and social service with technology by adapting an existing, evidence-based, technology-assisted parenting intervention.

Methods
Staff (n=3) participated in dialogues (n=2) and co-design workshops (n=8) exploring needs and preferences for a technology-assisted parenting intervention and iteratively developing a prototype intervention (Parenting Resilient Kids [PaRK]-Lite). Parents (n=3) received PaRK-Lite and participated in qualitative interviews to provide feedback on their experience and PaRK-Lite’s design.

Results
PaRK-Lite’s hybrid design leverages simple and familiar modes of technology (podcasts) to deliver intervention content and embeds reflective practice into service provision (microcoaching) to enhance parents’ empowerment and reduce service dependency. A training session, manuals, session plans, and templates were also developed to support the delivery of microcoaching. Feedback data from parents overall indicated that PaRK-Lite met their needs, suggesting that service providers can play a key role in the early phases of service innovation for parents.

Conclusions
The co-designed technology-assisted parenting intervention aims to offer both parents and clinicians a novel and engaging resource for intervening with maladaptive parenting, contributing to efforts to respond to childhood adversity and improve child mental health. Future research in the field of human-computer interaction and health service design can consider our findings in creating engaging interventions that have a positive impact on the well-being of children and families.
A Chatbot (Juno) Prototype to Deploy a Behavioral Activation Intervention to Pregnant Women: Qualitative Evaluation Using a Multiple Case Study

Published: August 2024

Background
Despite the increasing focus on perinatal care, preventive digital interventions are still scarce. Furthermore, the literature suggests that the design and development of these interventions are mainly conducted through a top-down approach that limitedly accounts for direct end user perspectives.

Objective
Building from a previous co-design study, this study aimed to qualitatively evaluate pregnant women’s experiences with a chatbot (Juno) prototype designed to deploy a preventive behavioral activation intervention.

Methods
Using a multiple–case study design, the research aims to uncover similarities and differences in participants’ perceptions of the chatbot while also exploring women’s desires for improvement and technological advancements in chatbot-based interventions in perinatal mental health. Five pregnant women interacted weekly with the chatbot, operationalized in Telegram, following a 6-week intervention. Self-report questionnaires were administered at baseline and postintervention time points. About 10-14 days after concluding interactions with Juno, women participated in a semistructured interview focused on (1) their personal experience with Juno, (2) user experience and user engagement, and (3) their opinions on future technological advancements. Interview transcripts, comprising 15 questions, were qualitatively evaluated and compared. Finally, a text-mining analysis of transcripts was performed.

Results
Similarities and differences have emerged regarding women’s experiences with Juno, appreciating its esthetic but highlighting technical issues and desiring clearer guidance. They found the content useful and pertinent to pregnancy but differed on when they deemed it most helpful. Women expressed interest in receiving increasingly personalized responses and in future integration with existing health care systems for better support. Accordingly, they generally viewed Juno as an effective momentary support but emphasized the need for human interaction in mental health care, particularly if increasingly personalized. Further concerns included overreliance on chatbots when seeking psychological support and the importance of clearly educating users on the chatbot’s limitations.

Conclusions
Overall, the results highlighted both the positive aspects and the shortcomings of the chatbot-based intervention, providing insight into its refinement and future developments. However, women stressed the need to balance technological support with human interactions, particularly when the intervention involves beyond preventive mental health context, to favor a greater and more reliable monitoring.

Background. Unilateral bi-portal endoscopic discectomy (UBED), as other surgical methods of treatment, may require the use of additional rehabilitation interventions in the recovery process of patients. Unfortunately, studies on the effectiveness of nonpharmacological methods in the postoperative period for these patients are insufficient. The study purposed to evaluate the effectiveness of a rehabilitation intervention program in the patients who have undergone UBED. Materials and methods. The study was conducted at the Department of Neurosurgery of the Spine and Spinal Cord of the Ivano-Frankivsk Regional Clinical Hospital in 2022–2023. The sample consisted of the main group (MG, n = 74) — patients who underwent removal of the hernia of the intervertebral disc used UBED and complex rehabilitation and control group (CG, n = 68) — UBED was performed without a rehabilitation course. Study methods: we used visual-analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry questionnaire before surgery and after it (in 1 day and 1, 6 and 12 months). Results. In the preoperative period, the back pain index was 5.3 ± 1.4 and 5.6 ± 1.1 cm in MG and CG, respectively. In the postoperative period the back pain index according to the VAS decreased to 1.5 ± 0.4 cm in one day after surgery in the MG with its positive dynamics during the year of observation. In CG this index also decreased to 1.4 ± 0.9 cm with a gradual improvement to 0.3 ± 0.1 cm in 12 months. At the 12 months after the surgery the Oswestry index demonstrated that quality of life was better in the subjects of MG compared to the CG (5.4 ± 3.2 and 17.4 ± 3.3 %, respectively). Conclusions. The use of physical ­exercises in combination with massage and hardware physiotherapy in patients who have UBED improved the quality of life of the patients in the long-term observation period, but did not affect the reduction of pain after the surgery in both short-term and long-term observation

Key Points

Intake of whole grains was not associated with CKD mineral and bone disorder biomarkers.Intake of whole grains in relation to refined grains was associated with lower risk of cardiovascular disease, kidney failure, and mortality.The restriction of whole grains among people with CKD may be unwarranted.

Background
Patients with CKD are encouraged to choose refined grains instead of whole grains as part of the low-phosphorus diet for managing CKD-mineral and bone disorders (CKD-MBD). However, there is no direct evidence indicating that limiting whole grains has a beneficial impact on CKD outcomes.

Methods
This study analyzed Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort data in two ways, namely cross-sectional examination of CKD-MBD biomarkers and prospective examination of health outcomes. A total of 4067 (cross-sectional) and 4331 (prospective) participants were included. The primary exposure was reported intake of whole grains (analyzed as servings/d, servings/1,000 kcal, and refined grain servings/whole grain servings). CKD-MBD biomarkers included serum phosphorus, fibroblast growth factor-23, parathyroid hormone, calcitriol, and calcium. Outcomes included cardiovascular events, kidney failure, and all-cause mortality.

Results
In adjusted models, reported intake of whole grains was associated with higher phosphorus intake and serum phosphorus when assessed crudely (serving/d), but not when analyzed in relation to energy. Higher intake of refined grain relative to whole grains was associated (all models) with higher risk of kidney failure (model 4: 1.01; 95% confidence interval, 1.00 to 1.02; P = 0.01, all-cause mortality (model 4: 1.01; 95% confidence interval, 1.00 to 1.01; P = 0.01), and cardiovascular disease except for the fully adjusted model. Higher dietary density was associated with lower mortality in models adjusted for demographic and clinical factors including kidney function, but not in the fully adjusted model that further adjusted for dietary factors.

Conclusions
Intake of whole grains was not associated with CKD-MBD biomarkers. Intake of whole grains in relation to refined grains was associated with lower risk of cardiovascular disease, kidney failure, and mortality. The results of this study put into question the long-standing practice of restricting whole grains in patients with CKD.
