Abstract

A recommender system is a model that automatically recommends some meaningful cases (such as clips/films/goods/items) to the clients/people/consumers/users according to their (previous) interests. These systems are expected to recommend the items according to the users’ interests. There are two traditional general recommender system models, i.e., Collaborative Filtering Recommender System (ColFRS) and Content-based Filtering Recommender System (ConFRS). Also, there is another model that is a hybrid of those two traditional recommender systems; it is called Hybrid Recommender System (HRS). An HRS usually outperforms simple traditional recommender systems. The problems such as scalability, cold start, and sparsity belong to the main problems that any recommender system should deal with. The memory-based (modeless) recommender systems benefit from good accuracies. But they suffer from a lack of admissible scalability. The model-based recommender systems suffer from a lack of admissible accuracies. But they benefit from good scalability. In this paper, it is tried to propose a hybrid model based on an automatically improved ontology to deal with the scalability, cold start, and sparsity problems. Our proposed HRS also uses an innovative approach of clustering as an augmented section. When there are enough ratings, it uses a collaborative filtering approach to predict the missing ratings. When there are not enough ratings, it uses a content-based filtering approach to predict the missing ratings. In the content-based filtering section of our proposed HRS, ontology concepts are used to improve the accuracy of ratings’ prediction. If our target client is severely sparse, we can not trust even the ratings predicted by the content-based filtering section of our proposed HRS. Therefore, our proposed HRS uses additive clustering to improve the prediction of the missing ratings if the target client is severely sparse. It is experimentally shown that our model outperforms many of the newly developed recommender systems.

Published: October 2023

Abstract

Background
Physicians need to possess not only clinical knowledge and skills, but also appropriate communication with patients and other healthcare professionals, as well as professionalism. Physicians in training should naturally develop these competencies and should strive to do so. Describing their development process is very important. Previous research has shown that experience, helping relationships and reflection are key to personal development. However, few studies have shown which experiences are important for personal growth and how medical residents specifically use their experiences for personal growth. The aim of this study was to identify from the residents' perspective which clinical experiences contribute to their personal development.
Method
A qualitative study using semi-structured interviews was conducted with Japanese post-graduate year two medical residents working at a teaching hospital. Interviews were transcribed in interview memos, anonymized, and coded inductively. General themes were identified.
Results
Ten medical residents participated in the study. Their ages ranged from 26 to 30 years, five were women and five were men. They had various backgrounds to aspiring departments. Autonomy and responsibility in clinical management were shown to be essential points for personal development as a physician. Autonomy was defined as the attitude of making one's own choices when managing patients. Responsibility is the ability to oblige the resident to take charge of a patient.
Conclusion
Medical residents develop themselves through successful clinical experiences with autonomy in decision-making and a sense of responsibility for patient care. The realization of what experiences and concepts influence medical residents’ personal growth and development will make their personal development more effective. Clinical training for medical residents will be better if the clinical experience with autonomy and responsibility is successfully incorporated within the clinical education setting.

Abstract

Evaluating routine HIV testing and treatment and use of services for people who inject drugs (PWID) is critical to curb the ongoing HIV epidemic. We analyzed data from the 2018 National HIV Behavioral Surveillance of PWID aged 18 years or older, recruited using respondent-driven sampling and offered anonymous HIV testing after survey. We performed bivariate and multivariable analyses with log-linked Poisson regression of the generalized linear models to examine the associations between demographics and PWID service use, past-year HIV testing, and current antiretroviral therapy (ART) use. Among 10,311 HIV-negative PWID, 56% reported past-year HIV testing, and of the 553 HIV-positive PWID, 69% reported current ART use. Of the HIV-negative PWID, 64% (2874/4482) in drug treatment and 62% (3386/5440) who used syringe service programs (SSPs) reported past-year HIV testing. Among HIV-positive PWID, 75% (187/248) in drug treatment and 67% (200/298) SSP participants were on ART. In the adjusted multivariable model, past-year HIV testing was associated with drug use treatment (aPR 1.26, 95% CI 1.23–1.31) and SSP participation (aPR 1.19, 95% CI 1.13–1.26) among HIV-negative PWID. Current ART use was associated with drug use treatment (aPR 1.13, 95% CI 1.00-1.28) but the link was not significant probably due to small sample size. Findings support the expansion and improvement of PWID-targeted services, into comprehensive programs, including drug use treatment, SSP, and HIV testing and treatment.

Abstract
Rivers are important freshwater sources. They provide water for domestic and recreational use and serve as ecological sites for various microorganisms. Free-living amoebae are considered naturally occurring organisms in freshwater. However, their prevalence can suggest the water quality at a given source. Forty-five surface water samples from nine different sites were collected from the Marikina River. Samples were processed and cultured in non-nutrient agar (NNA) lawned with Escherichia coli, and were observed for 14 days using a light microscope. Thirty-six (80%) samples yielded a positive amoebic growth. Further molecular testing confirmed the presence of Acanthamoeba spp. using specific primer sets, JDP1 and JDP2. The current results of this study have shown a remarkable jump in the detection rate for free-living amoebae (FLAs). The continued deterioration of the Marikina River due to several human and non-human factors may have been the reason for this phenomenon. River clean-up, resettlement programs, and strict implementation of laws on waste disposal should be considered to rehabilitate the Marikina River.

Published: October 2023

Abstract:
A heterocyclic scaffold-like benzodiazepine (BZD) has shown a wide variety of
medicinal values and utmost importance in pharmaceutical industries. BZDs are sevenmembered
heterocyclic molecules and have many structural isomers, such as 1,2; 1,3; 1,4;
1,5; 2,4; and 2,3. Among these BZDs, 1,5-BZDs play a significant role in pharmacological
activities like anti-anxiety, anti-convulsion, antimicrobial, sedative, and hypnotics. These
moieties have been the subject of extensive research with the development of synthetic
methods, leading to the generation of numerous useful molecules over the last few decades.
Therefore, we have further explored the recent literature on the 1,5-BZDs synthesis and associated
biological activities to expand the role and utility of newer 1.5-BZDs. This review
article gives a recent and insightful thought about the synthetic methods and therapeutic
applications of 1,5-BZDs.
Coexistence of Cryptococcal Fungemia and Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia in an HIV-Infected Patient: A Case Report
Authors: TATLI KIŞ Tuba , Yildirim Süleyman , Biçmen Can , Yücel Nur , Kirakli Cenk 
Published: October 2023

Introduction:
Opportunistic infections caused by bacteria and fungi are common in human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients. Cryptococcus neoformans and Pneumocystis
jirovecii are the most common opportunistic infections in immunosuppressed individuals, but
their coexistence is rare. To our knowledge, this is the first case presented in Turkey involving the
coexistence of C.neoformans fungemia and P.jirovecii pneumonia.

Case Presentation:
A 26-year-old male patient presented with a cachectic appearance, cough, sputum,
weakness, shortness of breath, and a weight loss of 15 kg in the last three months. It was
learned that the patient was diagnosed with HIV three years ago, did not go to follow-ups, and did
not use the treatments. CD4 cell count was 7/mm3 (3.4%), CD8 cell count was 100 (54%) mm3,
and HIV viral load was 5670 copies/mL. In thorax computed tomography (CT), increases in opacity
in diffuse ground glass density in both lungs and fibroatelectasis in lower lobes were observed.
With the prediagnosis of P. jiroveci pneumonia, the HIV-infected patient was given trimethoprim--
sulfamethoxazole 15 mg/kg/day intravenously (i.v.). On the 4th day of the patient's hospitalization,
mutiplex PCR-based rapid syndromic Biofire (Film Array) blood culture identification 2 (BCID2)
test (Biomerieux, France) was applied for rapid identification from blood culture. C. neoformans
was detected in the blood culture panel. The treatment that the patient was taking with the diagnosis
of C. neoformans fungemia was started at a dose of liposomal amphotericin B 5 mg/kg/-
day + fluconazole 800 mg/day.

Conclusion:
While the incidence of opportunistic infections has decreased with antiretroviral therapy
(ART), it remains a problem in patients who are unaware of being infected with HIV or who
fail ART or refuse treatment. High fungal burden, advanced age, low CD4+ cell count, and being
underweight are risk factors for mortality in HIV-positive patients. Our case was a cachectic patient
with a CD4 count of 7 cells/mm3. Despite the early and effective treatment, the course was fatal.
Identification of Emotional Spectrums of Patients Taking an Erectile Dysfunction Medication: Ontology-Based Emotion Analysis of Patient Medication Reviews on Social Media
Authors: Noh Youran , Kim Maryanne , Hong Song Hee 
Published: October 2023

Background
Patient medication reviews on social networking sites provide valuable insights into the experiences and sentiments of individuals taking specific medications. Understanding the emotional spectrum expressed by patients can shed light on their overall satisfaction with medication treatment. This study aims to explore the emotions expressed by patients taking phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors and their impact on sentiment.

Objective
This study aimed to (1) identify the distribution of 6 Parrot emotions in patient medication reviews across different patient characteristics and PDE5 inhibitors, (2) determine the relative impact of each emotion on the overall sentiment derived from the language expressed in each patient medication review while controlling for different patient characteristics and PDE5 inhibitors, and (3) assess the predictive power of the overall sentiment in explaining patient satisfaction with medication treatment.

Methods
A data set of patient medication reviews for sildenafil, vardenafil, and tadalafil was collected from 3 popular social networking sites such as WebMD, Ask-a-Patient, and Drugs.com. The Parrot emotion model, which categorizes emotions into 6 primary classes (surprise, anger, love, joy, sadness, and fear), was used to analyze the emotional content of the reviews. Logistic regression and sentiment analysis techniques were used to examine the distribution of emotions across different patient characteristics and PDE5 inhibitors and to quantify their contribution to sentiment.

Results
The analysis included 3070 patient medication reviews. The most prevalent emotions expressed were joy and sadness, with joy being the most prevalent among positive emotions and sadness being the most prevalent among negative emotions. Emotion distributions varied across patient characteristics and PDE5 inhibitors. Regression analysis revealed that joy had the strongest positive impact on sentiment, while sadness had the most negative impact. The sentiment score derived from patient reviews significantly predicted patient satisfaction with medication treatment, explaining 19% of the variance (increase in R2) when controlling for patient characteristics and PDE5 inhibitors.

Conclusions
This study provides valuable insights into the emotional experiences of patients taking PDE5 inhibitors. The findings highlight the importance of emotions in shaping patient sentiment and satisfaction with medication treatment. Understanding these emotional dynamics can aid health care providers in better addressing patient needs and improving overall patient care.

El problema de la representación (Vorstellung). Su impacto en el inicio de la fenomenología husserliana
Authors: Xolocotzi Yáñez Ángel 
Published: October 2023

La irrupción de la fenomenología a inicios del siglo XX con las Investigaciones lógicasde Husserl se comprende cabalmente a partir de los problemas discutidos en la última década del siglo XIX, especialmen- te en la Escuela de Franz Brentano. La tesis de que a toda representación corresponde un objeto, por parte de Brentano, contrasta con lo señalado previamente por Bolzano sobre las representaciones sin objeto. Los tratados husserlianos alrededor de 1894, en particular el texto sobre «objetos intencionales», se insertan en esta discusión que conducirá a planteamientos centrales en torno a la conformación de la fenomenología. El presente artículo muestra una revisión de elementos determinantes en la representación moderna, así como de la postura de Twardowski, para luego diferenciarla en la discusión de la paradoja Bolzano-Brentano y, finalmente, indicar la propuesta husserliana.
Discipline and Punish: A Study Exploring the Adoption of NPM-Inspired Accounting Reforms in the Provincial Governments in the Solomon Islands
Authors: Oru Marianne 
Published: October 2023

This presentation aims to illustrate part of my findings which capture the adoption of New Public Management (NPM)-inspired reforms at the provincial government level in the Solomon Islands. The overall aim of the study was to examine the adoption of two NPM-inspired accounting reforms (cash-based IPSAS – or International Public Sector Accounting Standards – and performance-based budgeting) and a participatory budgeting system in the Solomon Islands. The paucity of attention given to Public Sector Accounting Research (PSAR) in socio-cultural settings in developing countries motivated this study. Drawing on Foucault’s disciplinary power (Foucault, 1977) the study demonstrated how accounting as a ‘calculative infrastructure’ was able to transform the provincial governments in the Solomon Islands. The study applies the interpretive methodology that integrates with a critical theory to interpret the data (Chua, 1986b; Power & Laughlin, 1992). A total of 60 semi-structured interviews were held at both levels of government (national and provincial). Documents were also gathered, including historical data. Thematic analysis was employed and was guided by Foucault’s principles of critical interpretation. The presentation concludes by highlighting how accounting as a ‘calculative infrastructure’ plays an instrumental role in mediating conflict between political groups. In doing so, the study supports prior calls for an in-depth analysis of neoliberal reforms such as those inspired by the NPM in order to better understand the manifold implications of accounting in a wider social context.
Sino-Foreign Co-Production in the Post-Pandemic Era: Effects of Policies on Facilitating Film Co-Production
Authors: Wang Xinmu 
Published: October 2023

At this symposium, I will present my research findings which explore the implications of film co-production policies for practitioners engaged in Sino-foreign co-production projects. The research is guided by the theoretical framework of Richard Peterson's production of culture perspective (2004) and John Thornton Caldwell's production culture (2008). Specifically, my presentation will concentrate on film policies and relevant industry documents that have direct relevance to film practitioners in the Australasian region. The dynamics of government relationships are likely to exert an influence on policy-making processes. New Zealand was the first Oceanic country to sign the Memorandum of Agreement with China on the Maritime Silk Road in early 2017. Since then, it has brought opportunities and challenges for New Zealand film industry practitioners. Six official co-production projects with China have been approved since 2019 (New Zealand Film Commission, 2023). For New Zealand film industry practitioners keen to collaborate with their Chinese counterparts in the post-pandemic era, the Belt and Road Initiative presents an opportunity to seize the advantages of the current times. Therefore, filmmakers in both countries should understand the impact of these policies on the Chinese film industry and Sino-foreign co-productions. This qualitative research collected primary data from semi-structured interviews with film practitioners from New Zealand, Australia, and China, and secondary data from documents, government policies, and reports, as well as publically available online industry interviews. A thematic analysis is conducted to examine the data and answering and exploring one of PhD research questions: what would industry policies and documents mean for film practitioners working in co-productions. My research finding shows, through acquiring comprehensive knowledge, film industry practitioners can make informed choices and select collaboration methods that align with the needs of their projects, thus avoiding unnecessary complications or challenges.
Untitled Grief: An Application of Heuristic Inquiry
Authors: Hoyle Elizabeth 
Published: October 2023

In this presentation I investigate the methods and tools enmeshed in the creation of the short hybrid animated documentary Untitled Grief (Hoyle, 2023). Untitled Grief is one film of a suite of films which are being produced for a practice-led doctoral study (Smith & Dean, 2009). The films seek to document and visualise the human phenomena of loss in order to answer the question: How might a documentary filmmaker heighten resonance in narratives of grief through the use of animated images and sound? The project is underpinned by heuristic inquiry (Moustakas, 1990). Heuristic inquiry bolsters my examination of loss through tapping into autobiographical narratives as a way to uncover meaning while sustaining the focused search to expand the investigation. Potential is released to reveal universal significance of the phenomenon being explored. This type of inquiry is flexible, open and immersive. Tacit knowledge (Polanyi, 1967) is extracted and utilised. The researcher is guided by phases beginning with a focused initial encounter with the topic or question. Heuristic inquiry suggests a system of phases which guides the researcher throughout the research path. As an adaptation to this methodology and being led by practice, a series of principles of engagement have emerged; embracing uncertainty as a tool for creativity; utilising serendipity as a structured occurrence, emboldening the researcher’s poetic self; returning to indwelling with creative projects; aroha (love, respect, empathy) at the core of research practice.
