Published: January 2023

Background and objective
Recently, Electronic Health Records (EHR) are increasingly being converted to Common Data Models (CDMs), a database schema designed to provide standardized vocabularies to facilitate collaborative observational research. To date, however, rare attempts exist to leverage CDM data for healthcare process mining, a technique to derive process-related knowledge (e.g., process model) from event logs. This paper presents a method to extract, construct, and analyze event logs from the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP) CDM for process mining and demonstrates CDM-based healthcare process mining with several real-life study cases while answering frequently posed questions in process mining, in the CDM environment.

Methods
We propose a method to extract, construct, and analyze event logs from the OMOP CDM for process types including inpatient, outpatient, emergency room processes, and patient journey. Using the proposed method, we extract the retrospective data of several surgical procedure cases (i.e., Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (TLH), Total Hip Replacement (THR), Coronary Bypass (CB), Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI), Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD)) from the CDM of a Korean tertiary hospital. Patient data are extracted for each of the operations and analyzed using several process mining techniques.

Results
Using process mining, the clinical pathways, outpatient process models, emergency room process models, and patient journeys are demonstrated using the extracted logs. The result shows CDM’s usability as a novel and valuable data source for healthcare process analysis, yet with a few considerations. We found that CDM should be complemented by different internal and external data sources to address the administrative and operational aspects of healthcare processes, particularly for outpatient and ER process analyses.

Conclusion
To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to exploit CDM for healthcare process mining. Specifically, we provide a step-by-step guidance by demonstrating process analysis from locating relevant CDM tables to visualizing results using process mining tools. The proposed method can be widely applicable across different institutions. This work can contribute to bringing a process mining perspective to the existing CDM users in the changing Hospital Information Systems (HIS) environment and also to facilitating CDM-based studies in the process mining research community.

Background
Several sub-Saharan African countries use digital financial services to improve health financing, especially for maternal and child health. In cooperation with the Malagasy Ministry of Health, the NGO Doctors for Madagascar is implementing a mobile health wallet for maternal health care in public-sector health facilities in Madagascar. Our aim was to explore the enabling and limiting factors related to the usability and acceptance of the Mobile Maternal Health Wallet (MMHW) intervention during its implementation.

Methods
We conducted a cross-sectional, mixed methods study with mothers and pregnant women and facility- (FBHWs) and community-based (CHWs) health workers from public-sector health facilities in three districts of the Analamanga region in Madagascar. We used a convergent design in collecting and analyzing quantitative and qualitative data. We performed one-stage proportional sampling of women who had signed up for the MMHW. All FBHWs and CHWs at primary care facilities in the intervention area were eligible to participate.

Results and significance
314 women, 76 FBHWs, and 52 CHWs were included in the quantitative survey. Qualitative data were extracted from in-depth interviews with 12 women and 12 FBHWs and from six focus group discussions with 39 CHWSs. The MMHW intervention was accepted and used by health workers and women from different socioeconomic backgrounds. Main motivations for women to enroll in the intervention were the opportunity to save money for health (30.6%), electronic vouchers for antenatal ultrasound (30.2%), and bonus payments upon reaching a savings goal (27.9%). Main motivation for health workers was enabling pregnant women to save for health, thus encouraging facility-based deliveries (57.9%). Performance-based payments had low motivational value for health workers. Key facilitators were community sensitization, strong women-health worker relationship, decision making at the household level, and repetitive training on the use of the MMHW. Key barriers included limited phone ownership, low level of digital literacy, disinformation concerning the effects of the intervention, and technical problems like slow payout processes.

Authors: Şahin Mustafa , Yılmaz Uğur , Kaya Ebru , Taşdelen Arzum 
Published: January 2023

The purpose of this research is to examine the image of women in “The Civics Book for Turkish Children”, which was written for the fifth grade civics course of primary school and taught since the academic year 1931-1932. This study has a qualitative research model. The data were collected through document review and analyzed using content analysis. The book was examined with the document analysis technique and all the images related to “woman” were noted in both the texts and images and marked by coloring on the screen. In the second reading, meticulous encodings were made and expressions with temporary theme names were classified according to their similarities, adhering to their essence. The form of expression of each content was concluded with the decision of four researchers. At this stage, direct phrases appropriate to each of the themes were determined in order to further elaborate on or support the theme. In the texts and visuals of the textbook “The Civics Book for Turkish Children”, the image of women was shaped according to the social and political structure of the period, and an attempt was made to reflect the role of women in the atmosphere of that period. This situation has parallels with the evaluation results encountered in the research literature related to textbooks and children's books.

Experimenty ve výuce fyziky: Kde se čeští učitelé inspirují?
Authors: Marounová Jana , Kácovský Petr 
Published: January 2023

Hlavním cílem této studie, která je součástí rozsáhlého výzkumu role experimentu ve výuce fyziky, je zmapovat zdroje inspirace pro experimentální aktivity, které do svých hodin zařazují čeští středoškolští učitelé. K tomuto účelu byl použit online dotazník rozeslaný v listopadu roku 2020 učitelům fyziky na středních školách a v odpovídajících ročnících gymnázií; své odpovědi poskytlo 309 z přibližně dvou tisíc oslovených respondentů. Vyhodnocením vybraných dvou otázek dotazníku bylo zjištěno, že nejvýznamnějším zdrojem inspirace ve většině věkových skupin je internet, výjimku tvoří pouze nejstarší učitelé s více jak třicetiletou praxí, kteří preferují tištěné sbírky a učebnice. Mezi fyzikáři-muži je oproti fyzikářkám-ženám téměř dvojnásobný podíl těch, kteří deklarují, že si některé experimenty do výuky vymýšlejí sami. Velké rozdíly při volbě inspirace k experimentům můžeme vidět v závislosti na typu školy, na které respondenti působí. Gymnaziální učitelé v porovnání s učiteli z odborných středních škol ke své inspiraci výrazně více využívají tištěné zdroje a své kolegy. Mezi konkrétně zmiňovanými internetovými zdroji dominují především videa na YouTube, ale i elektronická sbírka pokusů http://fyzikalnipokusy.cz a stránky výrobce měřicích čidel http://vernier.cz. Často zmiňované jsou akce pro učitele zastřešené projekty Elixír do škol a Heuréka.
Enlarged Details and Close-up Views: Art Reproduction in 1930s Czechoslovakia
Authors: Buddeus Hana 
Published: January 2023

Each photograph captures an artwork within a particular frame of space and time, providing a perspective that is contingent and dependent on the era the photograph was made in (Bergstein 1992). Moreover, every photograph is always embedded in specific material conditions and has its own social life (Edwards–Hart 2004). The aim of this article is to show the particularity of reproductions of artworks in 1930s Czechoslovakia and the motivations and discussions behind the extensive use of detail. I argue that the pronounced interest in close-up views is a result of a series of circumstances specific to the period. There is an important pre-condition in the development in the field of art photography and graphic design that took place in the late 1920s, bringing about an interest in sharp and faithful images and full bleed prints, as well as a recognition of the social impact of the medium. As a result, photographers, artists, art historians, and graphic designers living in Czechoslovakia also began to rethink the use of photography in the art field. This was manifested in period publications such as the well-known Fotografie vidí povrch (Photography Sees the Surface), published in 1935. In terms of art reproductions, it shows the importance of close-up views for providing an insight into individual artistic approaches and into the history of the respective artwork. The same year saw the publication of the 31st volume of the art magazine Volné směry, which enables us to follow several micro-histories that can also be applied more generally to the period discussions. As illustrated by a text by Bohuslav Slánský and the reproduced photographs of medieval panel portraits from Karlštejn Castle attributed to Master Theodoric, one of the purposes behind the commissions of enlarged photographic details of artworks were planned restorations. Moreover, examples from the photographic campaigns led by the company of Jan Štenc, the State Photo-Measurement Institute, or the project by Karel Šourek, Alexandr Paul, and František Illek (Documenta Bohemia Artis Phototypica) show that detail is generally used for showing the structure and texture of the work, for zooming in on otherwise distant works, or for the purpose of comparison. According to Volné směry editor-in-chief Emil Filla and his manifesto article “Práce oka”, the new method of working with reproductions and the frequent use of photographic detail precipitated a change in the observational habits of the audience. This intention was materialised through his long-term collaboration with the photographer Josef Sudek, who helped him show the artworks in a new light. It is evident that by the mid-1930s, the synergic work of individuals from different fields brought the use of detail in art-related publications to an unprecedented level.
The Case for a European Credit Council: Historical and Constitutional Fine-Tuning
Authors: van ’t Klooster Jens 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
Eric Monnet’s European Credit Council (ECC) is an innovative, historically-grounded institutional proposal for supporting the ECB in the design of its monetary policy operations. In this commentary, I seek to strengthen the case for the European Credit Council drawing on work in progress on the history of the ECB. I first discuss the tradition of moderate interventionism as it appears in Monnet’s (Monnet, E. (2018). Controlling credit: Central banking and the planned economy in Postwar France, 1948–1973. Cambridge University Press) study Controlling Credit. I show that the model of moderate interventionism was well-known to the drafters of the ECB statutes and efforts to categorically rule such policies out were simply unsuccessful. I suggest that this fortuitous choice has left ample legal space in the EU treaties for an ECC.

Abstract

Objectives
Hyponatremia is the most frequent electrolyte disorder in hospitalized patients with increased mortality and morbidity. In this study, we evaluated the follow-up diagnostic, the risk of inadequate fast correction and the outcome of patients with profound hyponatremia (pHN), defined as a blood sodium concentration below 120 mmol/L. The aim was to identify a promising approach for a laboratory-based clinical decision support system (CDSS).

Methods
This retrospective study included 378,980 blood sodium measurements of 83,315 cases at a German tertiary care hospital. Hospitalized cases with pHN (n=211) were categorized into two groups by the time needed for a follow-up measurement to be performed (time to control, TTC) as either <12 h (group 1: “TTC≤12 h”, n=118 cases) or >12 h (group 2: “TTC>12 h”, n=93 cases). Length of hospital stay, sodium level at discharge, ward transfers, correction of hyponatremia, and risk of osmotic demyelination syndrome (ODS) due to inadequate fast correction were evaluated with regard to the TTC of sodium blood concentration.

Results
pHN was detected in 1,050 measurements (0.3%) in 211 cases. Cases, in which follow-up diagnostics took longer (TTC>12 h), achieved a significantly lower sodium correction during their hospitalization (11.2 vs. 16.7 mmol/L, p<0.001), were discharged more frequently in hyponatremic states (<135 mmol/L; 58 (62.4%) vs. 43 (36.4%), p<0.001) and at lower sodium blood levels (131.2 vs. 135.0 mmol/L, p<0.001). Furthermore, for these patients there was a trend toward an increased length of hospital stay (13.1 vs. 8.5 days, p=0.089), as well as an increased risk of inadequate fast correction (p<0.001).

Conclusions
Our study shows that less frequent follow-up sodium measurements in pHN are associated with worse outcomes. Patients with a prolonged TTC are at risk of insufficient correction of hyponatremia, reduced sodium values at discharge, and possible overcorrection. Our results suggest that a CDSS that alerts treating physicians when a control time of >12 h is exceeded could improve patient care in the long term. We are initiating a prospective study to investigate the benefits of our self-invented CDSS (www.ampel.care) for patients with pHN.
Analysis of standard systems with solar monitoring systems

Published: January 2023

AbstractWith the increase in the need for electrical energy in the world, electricity is tried to be generated by various methods. Some of these methods cause global warming and environmental pollution to increase. Therefore, it is aimed to generate electricity using renewable energy sources instead of fossil fuels. The sun is one of these renewable energy sources. Electricity generation with solar energy is one of the methods that have become quite common in recent years. One of the most important considerations required to achieve maximum efficiency in solar power and electricity generation is to ensure that the rays are perpendicular to the panel. When this is achieved, the depreciation time of the system will be reduced and electricity generation will be carried out with high efficiency from these panels with limited service life. To achieve this, various solar tracking systems are designed. In this study, the analysis of fixed systems was performed by comparing them with single- and dual-axis solar tracking systems. Comparisons were made using a design and simulation software (PVSOL) program for photovoltaic systems. In these comparisons, the effects of single- and dual-axis solar tracking methods on depreciation time compared to fixed systems were examined.

Abstract

Objectives
Isolated ovarian agenesis in the absence of Mullerian duct anomalies are rare events which are usually discovered after menarche and incidentally in the context of an intervention for other indications, such as laparoscopy or assisted reproduction techniques.

Case presentation
We hereby present a case of unilateral ovarian agenesis in the presence of the ipsilateral fallopian tube.

Conclusions
Older studies had reported an incidence of true congenital unilateral ovarian agenesis to be 1 in 11,241 females Sivanesaratnam V. Unexplained unilateral absence of ovary and fallopian tube. Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol 1986;22:103–5, but this is likely an understatement given the increase of relevant literature in recent years and the frequency of laparoscopy nowadays.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
The development of subways in cities has provided great comfort to the citizens, but it has brought adverse effects to the residents of the buildings adjacent to the subway lines. The main effects are Structure Borne Noise (SBN) and Structure Borne Vibration (SBV), which are identified as environmental challenges. In this research, the extent and seriousness of SBV and SBN annoyances to people were investigated. This is made in two steps; first a thorough field test was made to evaluate the level of train-induced noise and vibration; then, a comprehensive investigation was made on the level of people annoyance from train-induced vibration and noise, using results obtained from interviews and questionnaires. The results obtained indicate that health concerns, economic losses, building damages and social harms were the most important factors, which cause annoyance of the citizens. These annoyances caused citizens to take their complaints to judiciary system in the world. In the second part of this research, the effectiveness and sufficiency of the current laws and legislation to protect the citizen against SBV/SBN annoyance are evaluated. The results indicate that there are limitations in the current laws in regard to crime determination, criminal identification, estimation of damages to citizens, citizen rights regarding the annoyance caused by SBV/SBN. Also, there is a lack of legal awareness among the citizens who do not know how to get their legal rights. The results of this research showed that the judicial bodies should improve and extend the current laws and make more low-enforcement to protect people against the growing problem of SBV/SBN. Also, there is a need to make people more familiar with their civil rights in regard to SBN and SBV.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
Hookah smoking has become very popular in Iraq among women and men. Hookah tobacco contains natural radioactive elements, such as radon, radium, and uranium, as well as toxic elements, such as polonium, which are released during the combustion of tobacco and are inhaled by smoking. Most reviews focus on hookah tobacco, and only a few have investigated the blood of hookah smokers. In this study, a CR-39 detector was used to measure radon, radium, and polonium concentrations and conduct risk assessments in female hookah smokers of different ages. The results show that the concentrations of radon-222, polonium-218, and polonium-214 varied between 61.62 and 384.80, 5.45–33.64 on the wall of the can, and 2.43–15.00 Bq/m3 on the surface of the detector, respectively. The effective radium-226 concentration varied between 4.52 and 56.31 Bq/kg. The absorbed effective dose varied between 1.55 and 9.71 mSv/y, which is within the recommended limit (3–10 mSv/y) by International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP). The average case of lung cancer 107.91 cppp, which exceeds the European Union (EU) limit (96.9–104.8 cppp). The rates of radon activity and radon exhalation from the intake of a natural radionuclide due to hookah smoking in a female’s blood were calculated and discussed. This study aimed to establish preliminary results on the risks of radioactivity concentrations and assess the dose in the blood of women who smoke hookah and assess the possibility of developing cancer.
