Η συνεργασία σχολείου-οικογένειας μέσω της γονικής συμμετοχής στο πλαίσιο του αειφόρου σχολείου
Authors: Ναούμ Έλλη 
Published: November 2023

Η Εκπαίδευση για το Περιβάλλον και την Αειφορία (ΕΠΑ) προτείνεται ως μια μετασχηματιστική παιδαγωγική διαδικασία, η οποία προσβλέπει στη δημιουργία ενός νέου εκπαιδευτικού πλαισίου αναφοράς. Το αειφόρο σχολείο υιοθετεί τις αρχές της ΕΠΑ και αναπτύσσεται ως οργανισμός μάθησης, σε τρία αλληλοεξαρτώμενα επίπεδα λειτουργίας, ενθαρρύνοντας συνεργατικές διεργασίες και προωθώντας το άνοιγμα του σχολείου στην κοινότητα. Η συνεργασία σχολείου-οικογένειας μέσω της γονικής εμπλοκής μπορεί να αποτελέσει το όχημα που θα διευκολύνει το «άνοιγμα» αυτό. Η ερευνητική δραστηριότητα αναφορικά με τους παράγοντες που επηρεάζουν τη γονική συμμετοχή και τα οφέλη της στην εκπαίδευση των παιδιών, εξετάζεται σε συνδυασμό με το σφαιρικό μοντέλο και την τυπολογία γονικής εμπλοκής που προτείνει η Epstein και οι συνεργάτες της (2019). Τύποι, όπως, γονική μέριμνα, για τον προσδιορισμό κάθε οικογενειακού πλαισίου, επικοινωνία, υποστήριξη του σχολείου στη μελέτη στο σπίτι, εθελοντική συμμετοχή των γονέων στα εκπαιδευτικά δρώμενα, διευκολύνουν τόσο την υπέρβαση των εμποδίων που δυσχεραίνουν τη συνεργασία σχολείου-οικογένειας όσο και τη δυνατότητα όλων των γονέων να συμμετέχουν στην εκπαίδευση των παιδιών τους με θετικά αποτελέσματα για όλους τους εμπλεκόμενους. Παρόμοια αποτελέσματα αναδείχτηκαν και στη διδακτορική διατριβή που υλοποιήθηκε με επιβλέπουσα την Ομότιμη Καθηγήτρια κ. Ε. Φλογαΐτη, με τίτλο, «Η συνεργασία σχολείου-οικογένειας στο πλαίσιο του αειφόρου σχολείου. Μια έρευνα δράσης σε νηπιαγωγείο».

Authors: Ramanathan Venkateswaran , Pari Thenmozhi Hariswar , Singh Rakesh , Bheemanathi Hanuman Srinivasan , Adithan Subathra 
Published: November 2023

Background: During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic, an increase in the incidence of fungal infections was observed. However, the real magnitude of these fungal infections and their risk factors among COVID-19 patients in the Indian population is unknown. Aim: To study the frequency, and spectrum of invasive fungal infections (IFI) among hospitalized COVID-19 patients, and the risk factors associated with invasive fungal infections. Methods: We performed a retrospective, cross-sectional study; including all adult patients, admitted to Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research (JIPMER), a tertiary care hospital in Southern India between April 2020 and August 2021, with COVID-19. Based on clinical-radiological features, patients with fungal infections were grouped into three diagnostic categories. Demographics, clinical, and laboratory features of patients with fungal infections were analyzed to identify the risk factors. Results: About 10% (449 out of 4650) of the admitted patients with recent COVID-19, had some form of IFI. Among the patients with IFI, 80% (366 out of 449) were hospitalized for active COVID-19, whereas almost all the patients admitted with post-COVID complications had IFI. Of the 449 patients with IFI, 377 had mold infections and 88 had invasive candidiasis. Mucormycosis was the most common mold infection. Diabetes and diabetic ketoacidosis were strong independent predictors of IFI. We also found an association between end-stage renal disease, central venous catheterization, antibiotic usage, prior stroke, and corticosteroid therapy with IFI. Conclusions: The frequency of fungal infections among hospitalized COVID-19 patients was high. Special precautions in COVID-19 patients with diabetes mellitus, corticosteroid therapy, and prior antibiotic usage may help to reduce invasive fungal infections.
Family Farm Succession of the First Post-Socialist Generation in the Czech Republic
Authors: Zagata Lukas , Lošťák Michal , Swain Nigel 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The main goal of the paper is to provide insights into the family succession processes in terms of the first inter-generational renewal that has been re-started in the Czech agricultural sector. We want to understand how major transformation processes (i.e., collectivisation, restitution, the post-socialist economic transformation and EU membership) constituted social structures that framed inter-generational change on Czech farms. Such a framework includes the “farm succession gap” that has resulted from the long-term societal changes and that is still reflected in the ongoing succession processes.
Unexpected Counter-Movements to Nationalism: the Hidden Potential of Local Food Communities
Authors: Svensson Sara , Balogh Péter , Cartwright Andrew 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
This article identifies a hitherto understudied element of local food communities, namely their potential as counter-movements to nationalist discourses, practices and policies. This potential should be particularly valuable in Eastern Europe, where European integration has been severely contested over the past years by political elites. We support our argument by a closer qualitative inquiry into two cases; one with urban-rural dimensions in the metropolitan area of Budapest and one in a more sparsely populated cross-border region at the Slovak-Hungarian border. Based on 18 interviews with coordinators, producers and consumers, numerous visits to both sites, and studying the organisations’ documents we conclude that the growth of local food communities contributes to strengthened solidarity in local communities. Although nationalist discourses on buying domestic are rarely contested explicitly, the lack of any reference to national movements and discourses testifies to the primary importance of the local.
Some Experience of the Complex, National Human Resource Development Programmes in the Hungarian Rural Regions
Authors: Tésits Róbert , Alpek Levente , Hoványi Gábor 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The key objective of this paper is the structural-regional examination of disadvantaged job seekers’ employability in the convergence regions of Hungary. One element of the comparative evaluation of the EU-supported, complex, national employability-enhancing programmes is the exploration of successful and unsuccessful factors and the formulation of recommendations for future projects of this kind. While the evaluation of the previous programme beginning nearly a decade ago was based on document analysis (technical procedures, budget summaries, communications plans, action and progress schedules and reports), in-depth interviews with the employment departments staff provided assistance in the evaluation accomplished five years later. The assessment of interviews was completed by the public, follow-up data about people successfully passing the programme and still being employed half a year after the closing of the programme. This data was the basis for the measurement of regional impact, which necessitated the development of two regional reintegration indicators. The group-specific evaluation pointed to the fact that low-skilled people can be involved with much less efficiency into employability-enhancing programmes. The present study also shows that the expected marginal utility of an employability programme is greater, which is realised in an economic environment driven by labour market demand.
Credit Risk Modeling with Graph Machine Learning

Published: November 2023

Accurate credit ratings are an essential ingredient in the decision-making process for investors, rating agencies, bond portfolio managers, bankers, and policy makers, as well as an important input for risk management and regulation. Credit ratings are traditionally generated from models that use financial statement data and market data, which are tabular (numeric and categorical). Using machine learning methods, we construct a network of firms using U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings (denoted CorpNet) to enhance the traditional tabular data set with a corporate graph. We show that this generates accurate rating predictions with comparable and better performance to tabular models. We ensemble graph convolutional networks with highly-performant ensembled machine learning models using AutoGluon. This paper demonstrates both transductive and inductive methodologies to extend credit scoring models based on tabular data, which have been used by the ratings industry for decades, to the class of machine learning models on networks. The methodology is extensible to other financial machine learning models that may be enhanced using a corporate graph. History: David Martens served as the senior editor for this article. Data Ethics & Reproducibility Note: No data ethics considerations are foreseen related to this article. The paper deals with corporate credit risk and not consumer credit, which usually entails issues around privacy and bias.

Effectiveness of Nutrient Management for Reducing Phosphorus Losses from Agricultural Areas
Authors: Kamrath Brock , Yuan Yongping 
Published: November 2023

Highlights

Dissolved reactive P concentration increased with an increased fertilization rate.

Subsurface placement of P fertilizer can reduce acute DRP export regardless of fertilization rates.

More research connecting P fertilizer use and P export at the field-scale is needed.

Abstract. Dissolved reactive phosphorus (DRP) export from agricultural areas is a leading cause of nutrient pollution in freshwater systems (e.g., the North American Great Lakes). A potential solution to mitigate the excessive release of DRP is the use of nutrient management. To evaluate the effectiveness of nutrient management for phosphorus (P) in the United States, we conducted a review to synthesize P management and DRP export data from peer-reviewed articles published between 2000 to 2022. We identified 15 publications and extracted 113 and 90 observations from plot- and field-scale studies, respectively. At the plot scale, mean DRP concentrations were approximately 60% lower when P application rates were below the maximum recommended rate. In addition to the lower mean value, more extreme DRP export events occurred when the P fertilization rate was greater than the maximum recommended rate. In terms of application method, subsurface placement reduced mean DRP concentrations during rainfall simulations by 88% relative to surface placement (i.e., broadcasting). For fertilizer sources, mean DRP concentrations were similar between inorganic and organic fertilizers. However, at high application rates, organic fertilizers had a greater potential to produce extreme DRP export events. At the field-scale, organic fertilizers applied at high rates had the potential to produce extreme DRP export events. However, field-scale results for the other nutrient management techniques were generally inconclusive due to a limited number of studies and confounding factors. Overall, these results displayed the potential adverse impacts of overfertilization and the surface application of P fertilizers and highlighted the need for further research into the influence of nutrient management on P losses.

Authors: Wu X , Chen M , Yu X , Wu B 
Published: November 2023

Introduction We aimed to evaluate the effect of continuous quality improvement on modified gastrointestinal decompression under abdominal computed tomography (CT) in patients with intestinal obstruction. Methods The CT images of 74 patients with intestinal obstruction who underwent gastrointestinal decompression in our hospital from 1 January 2018 to 31 December 2019 were analysed retrospectively (Control group). Factors influencing unsatisfactory decompression effects were analysed, and corresponding improvement measures were formulated and implemented. A total of 77 patients from 1 January 2020 to 31 March 2022 were enrolled prospectively (Study group). The position of the nasogastric tube end, the amount of gastric drainage within 24h and the degree of abdominal distension relief were compared before and after the improvement. Results After implementation of continuous quality improvement, the proportion of the end of the nasogastric tube reaching the antrum, the amount of gastric fluid drainage within 24h and the degree of abdominal distension relief were better than those before improvement (p<0.001, respectively). The execution rate and accuracy rate of CT interpretations by nurses reached 100% and 82%, respectively. Conclusions Modified gastrointestinal decompression based on abdominal CT scans can increase the success of gastrointestinal decompression and effectively reduce the discomfort of patients.

Objective
Despite the significant advances in healthcare, people living with HIV still face challenges that affect their quality of life (QoL), both in terms of their physical state as represented by frailty and of their illness perceptions (IP). The aim of this study was to unravel the associations between these constructs (QoL, frailty, IP).

Methods
This multicenter, cross-sectional study included 477 people living with HIV (93% male; median age = 43 years, IQR = 51.7) from six HIV clinics in Greece. Frailty phenotype, QoL and IP were assessed using Fried’s criteria, EuroQoL (EQ-5D-5L) and Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (BIPQ), respectively. Network analysis model was utilized.

Results
Among frailty criteria, exhaustion had the highest expected influence, while the strongest correlation concerns exhaustion and weak grip strength (pr = 0.14). Regarding the QoL items, usual activities displayed the highest expected influence. The correlations of pain/discomfort with mobility (pr = 0.31), and usual activities with self-care (pr = 0.34) were the strongest. For the BIPQ items, the strongest correlation was found between illness concern and emotional response (pr = 0.45), whereas the latter item was the one that displayed the highest expected influence. Three communities were formed: 1) personal control, treatment control and coherence, 2) the frailty items with mobility, self-care, usual activities, and pain/discomfort, and 3) the rest BIPQ items with anxiety/depression. Identity displayed the highest bridge strength, followed by pain/discomfort, usual activities and consequences.

Conclusions
The interplay between QoL, frailty, and IP in people living with HIV requires clinical attention. Self-reported exhaustion, slow walking speed, and low physical activity affect the physical QoL dimensions, while anxiety/depression is strongly associated with illness-related concern and perceived emotional effects, leading to psychological distress. Symptom management can improve QoL, and information on the disease and treatment can enhance control over the disease. Developing interventions to address QoL, frailty, and IP is crucial.

Published: November 2023

Background
Mental disorders among adolescents represent a high burden and early onset. They compromise their physical health, survival, and future potential. On the other hand, young people have inadequate access to essential health services in sub-Saharan Africa. We aimed to review school-based psychological interventions, contents, delivery, and evidence of effectiveness designed to treat depression, anxiety, or posttraumatic stress symptoms among adolescents and young adults aged 10–24.

Method
We searched articles on the following databases: PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Science Direct from 17/10/2022 to 30/12/2022. Furthermore, relevant studies were searched from advanced google scholar, google and identified reference lists. We used MeSH browser for key words: psychological interventions, depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress disorder and lists of Sub-Saharan Africa countries. We combined words using standard Boolean operators (OR, AND). The quality of studies was evaluated using the Cochrane Collaboration’s risk of bias tool and the results were presented as a narrative synthesis since the interventions were very heterogenous.

Results
Fourteen randomized controlled trials were included for systematic review and more than half (57.14%) were from Kenya and Nigeria. Common school-based psychological interventions were cognitive behavioral therapy and Shamiri interventions (an intervention that focuses on youths to cultivate a growth mindset, practice gratitude and take the value). More than half (57.14%) of the interventions were delivered by non-specialists like teachers, lay providers and community health workers. Nearly one-fifth of the interventions were used individual modality. School-based psychological interventions provided by non-specialists also produced a greater reduction in adolescents’ depressive, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress symptoms compared to the control groups.

Conclusion
Cognitive behavioral therapy and Shamiri interventions were the common treatment delivered in school settings. The range of interventions could be effectively delivered by non- professionals that promote task-shifting of psychological interventions from very scarce mental health specialists in these countries.

Impact on clinical outcomes of renin-angiotensin system inhibitors against doxorubicin-related toxicity in patients with breast cancer and hypertension: A nationwide cohort study in South Korea
Authors: Hwang Hui-Jeong , Lee Taek-Gu 
Published: November 2023

Background
Although doxorubicin (DOX) is a commonly used potent chemotherapeutic agent in patients with breast cancer, its cardiotoxic effect is a concern, particularly in patients with hypertension. Antihypertensive renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors may potentially play a role in preventing overt heart failure (HF) due to DOX toxicity. This study aimed to evaluate whether the use of RAS inhibitors improves clinical outcomes in patients with hypertension and breast cancer undergoing DOX-containing chemotherapy.

Methods
A total of 54,344 female patients who were first diagnosed with breast cancer and initiated into DOX therapy between 2008 and 2015 were recruited from a nationwide Korean cohort. Patients were divided into two groups: with and without hypertension (HT, n = 10,789; non-HT, n = 43,555), and the RAS inhibitor group (n = 1,728) was sub-classified from the HT group. Two propensity score-matched cohorts were constructed to compare the clinical outcomes between non-HT and HT groups and between non-HT and RAS inhibitor groups. The primary outcome was the composite of HF and death.

Results
After propensity score matching, the HT group had a higher risk for HF (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] = 1.30, 95% confidence intervals [95% CI] = 1.09–1.55) compared to the non-HT group, but there was no significant difference in primary outcome between the two groups. The RAS inhibitor group had a lower risk for primary outcome (adjusted HR = 0.78, 95% CI = 0.65–0.94) and death (adjusted HR = 0.81, 95% CI = 0.66–0.99) compared to the non-HT group.

Conclusions
Hypertension is a risk factor for HF in patients with breast cancer undergoing DOX chemotherapy. However, the RAS inhibitors used to treat hypertension may contribute to decreased mortality and improved clinical outcomes.

Published: November 2023

Penelitian ini merupakan bentuk kepedulian warga Semarang Utara terhadap banjir rob yang terus meningkat pertahunnya. Tujuan Penelitian ini mengetahui tingkat kenaikan muka air laut dan analisis yang dilakukan dengan pengamatan dan perhitungan, kemudian untuk menentukan laju penurunan muka tanah menggunakan citra satelit SAR Sentinel-1, dan untuk mengetahui nilai prediksi lantai bangunan tinggi pada tahun berikutnya. Kenaikan muka air laut diperoleh dengan cara menghitung dengan metode admiralty untuk mendapatkan nilai MSL dan HHWL dalam kurun waktu 5 tahun. Penentuan penurunan tanah menggunakan citra satelit sentinel-1 dengan mengolah citra menggunakan aplikasi snap yang menghasilkan penurunan tanah setiap tahunnya. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bagaimana penurunan muka tanah dari tahun ke tahun meningkat secara signifikan ditambah MSL dan HHWL yang mengakibatkan wilayah pesisir mengalami penenggelaman terus menerus. Oleh karena itu solusi untuk menambah tinggi lantai bangunan sebesar 1,6 meter dalam jangka waktu 5 tahun merupakan solusi yang dapat digunakan warga Semarang Utara dalam menghadapi banjir rob yang terus meningkat setiap tahunnya. Kata kunci: Land Subsidence, Kota Semarang, Lantai Bangunan Abstract This research was as a form of concern for the residents of North Semarang towards tidal flooding which continued to increase every year. The objectives of this study were to determine the level of sea level rise with analysis carried out by observations and calculations, then to determine the rate of land subsidence based on SAR Sentinel-1 satellite imagery, and to determine the predicted value of high-rise floors in the following year. The sea level rise was obtained by calculating the admiralty method to get the MSL and HHWL values within a period of 5 years. The determination of land subsidence using sentinel-1 satellite imagery by processing images using a snap application resulted in land subsidence every year. The results of this study showed how land subsidence from year to year increased significantly plus MSL and HHWL which caused coastal areas to sustain continuous submergence. Therefore, the solution to increase the floor height of the building by 1.6 meters in a period of 5 years was a solution that could be used by the residents of North Semarang to deal with tidal floods, which continued to increase every year.
