Published: January 2023

IntroductionDuring the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, nearly all educational institutions globally had to eventually embrace the maneuver of transferring to nearly 100% online learning as a new routine for different curricula. Although many students in developing countries such as Kenya are only experiencing the exclusive online learning approach for the first time, research on students’ experience and satisfaction with COVID-19-imposed online learning is largely lacking. Thus, this study examined the effect of online-learning experiences on satisfaction in the setting of the COVID-19 pandemic in Kenya. The mediating role of students’ preference on the relationship between online-learning experience and satisfaction was also examined.MethodsA web-based survey involving 501 respondents was analyzed using IBM® SPSS® and AMOS software platforms. A structural equation model (SEM) was used to analyze the relationships.Results and DiscussionResults showed that 80% of participants indicated their preference for in-person learning as against 20% for online learning. Students’ satisfaction-SS had a significant positive correlation with online classroom perceived quality-OCPQ, acquisition of self-confidence-ASC, teaching performance and engagement-TPE, and preference for online learning-POL but a negative correlation with internet access and cost-IAC. Moreover, while POL positively correlated with OCPQ, ASC, and TPE, it negatively correlated with IAC. Both the structural model for the main effect and the mediation model provided a good fit and confirmed these relationships. Student preference had a significant effect on satisfaction and played a significant mediating role in the relationship between online-learning experience and satisfaction. These findings shed light on the underlying factors that explain students’ online learning satisfaction and provide guidelines for universities and policymakers to make better decisions that enhance students’ online-learning experience and satisfaction.

Published: January 2023

BackgroundMusculoskeletal conditions are common in primary care, causing significant morbidity. Intra-articular and soft tissue corticosteroid injections are commonly performed by GPs internationally. It is unknown how commonly they are performed by GPs in the Republic of Ireland.AimTo determine the frequency and type of joint and soft tissue injections performed by GPs in the Republic of Ireland and investigate factors affecting their use.Design & settingA cross-sectional online questionnaire, which was based on previous international research, was devised for completion by GPs practising in the Republic of Ireland.MethodGPs were invited to electronically complete a questionnaire on their practices and attitudes regarding joint and soft tissue injections.ResultsA total of 147 of 204 GPs (72.1%) had performed an intra-articular or soft tissue injection in the preceding year. GPs who were principals or partners, male, or worked in a rural or mixed urban and rural practice setting were more likely to perform these procedures. The most common injection sites were the shoulder and knee. Participants were confident about performing joint and soft tissue injections. It was found that 80.4% had received prior training in this treatment modality, most commonly during their GP training programme. A prolonged wait for secondary care intervention, symptom duration, and symptom severity were factors that increased the likelihood of performing injections. Difficulty maintaining skills and medicolegal concerns were common barriers to performing joint and soft tissue injections.ConclusionMost GPs surveyed carried out joint and soft tissue injections, most commonly injecting the shoulder and knee. Irish GPs experience many of the same barriers to performing intra-articular injection as experienced internationally.

BackgroundAntibiotic treatment duration may be longer than sometimes needed. Stopping antibiotics early, rather than completing pre-set antibiotic courses, may help reduce unnecessary exposure to antibiotics and antimicrobial resistance (AMR).AimTo identify clinicians' and patients' views on stopping antibiotics when better (SAWB) for urinary tract infections (UTIs), and to explore comparisons with other acute infections.Design & settingAn exploratory qualitative study with general practice clinicians and patients in England.MethodPrimary care clinicians and patients who had recent UTI experience were recruited in England. Remote one-to-one interviews with clinicians and patients, and one focus group with patients, were conducted. Data were audiorecorded, transcribed, and analysed thematically.ResultsEleven clinicians (seven GPs) and 19 patients (14 with experience of recurrent and/or chronic UTIs) were included. All participants considered SAWB unfamiliar and contradictory to well-known advice to complete antibiotic courses, but were interested in the evidence for risks and benefits of SAWB. Clinicians were amenable if evidence and guidelines supported it, whereas patients were more averse because of concerns about the risk of UTI recurrence and/or complications and AMR. Participants viewed SAWB as potentially more appropriate for longer antibiotic courses and other infections (with longer courses and lower risk of recurrence and/or complications). Participants stressed the need for unambiguous advice and SAWB as part of shared decision making and personalised advice.ConclusionPatients were less accepting of SAWB, whereas clinicians were more amenable to it. Patients and clinicians require good evidence that this novel approach to self-determining antibiotic duration is safe and beneficial. If evidence based, SAWB should be offered with an explanation of why the advice differs from the ‘complete the course’ instruction, and a clear indication of when exactly to stop antibiotics should be given.

Entangled Histories, Catholic Missions and Languages
Authors: Cattaneo Angelo 
Published: January 2023

This essay focuses on the heterogeneous missionary contexts connected to the Portuguese Empire, in the hemisphere assigned to Portugal by the Treaty of Tordesillas (1494) and Zaragoza (1529), ranging from Brasil, Sub-Saharan Africa, to India, Vietnam, China and Japan. In these plural missionary contexts, between ca. 1540 to 1650, Portuguese was used, mostly by the Jesuits and their more numerous local native mediators, as translational language for several idioms unknown in Europe. These early modern linguistic and cultural translations of living languages based on Portuguese as translational language, have largely been overlooked outside of the field of missionary linguistics. This essay highlights instead their strong documentary potential, meaning and implications, beyond linguistics, with respect to current debates on early modern global history and its periodization.

Published: January 2023

Obesity is associated with dyslipidemia and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The objective of the study was to determine the association between anthropometric parameters with lipid profiles among healthy women in Semarang. This study used a cross-sectional design with consecutive sampling. Anthropometric parameters in this research were body mass index (BMI), visceral fat, waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR). While, lipid profiles were total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and triglyceride and high-density lipoprotein ratio (TG/HDL). The association of anthropometric parameters with the lipid profiles was analyzed by Spearman correlation. Among subjects with nutritional status normal, BMI has significantly correlated with TG, HDL, and TG/HDL ratio. Moreover, WHR was significantly correlated with HDL and TG. While, among subjects overweight and obese, BMI, visceral fat, and WC were significantly correlated with TG, HDL, and TG/HDL ratio. Anthropometric parameters such as BMI, visceral fat, WC, and WHR were associated with lipid profiles among healthy women in Semarang. BMI and WHR can be used in individuals with normal nutritional status to predict lipid profiles. While, BMI, visceral fat, and WC can be used in overweight and obese individuals to predict lipid profiles

Сучасний стан ценопопуляцій кущів родини Rosaceae Juss. на залізорудних відвалах Криворіжжя
Authors: Красова О. О. , Шкута С. І. , Павленко А. О. 
Published: January 2023

Для Криворізького залізорудного басейну (Кривбас) характерна найвища в Україні концентрація гірничих робіт, що зумовило докорінні зміни в ландшафтній структурі регіону. Потужним фітомеліоративним фактором у постмайнінгових ландшафтах є рослинний покрив. В аспекті з'ясування деталей формування сучасного рослинного покриву залізорудних відвалів досліджено особливості структури ценопопуляцій Cotoneaster lucidus Schlecht, Padellus mahaleb (L.) Vassilcz та Amelanchier spicata (Lam.) K. Koch – видів з родини Rosaceae. Встановлено, що перші два види у фітоценозах є домінантами, а третій виступає як асектатор. Результати ґрунтових аналізів субстратів в екотопах, до яких приурочені ценопопуляції кущів, свідчать про їх високу кам'янистість, слабку засоленість, бідність щодо вмісту гумусу та варіативність кислотності від нейтральної до середньолужної. Морфометричні показники генеративних особин кущів відзначаються широкою варіабельністю. Досить вирівняні вони в інтродукційній популяції Cotoneaster lucidus, а найбільший діапазон варіювання характерний для параметрів Amelanchier spicata внаслідок того, що в стадію плодоношення рослини вступають вже на третій-четвертий роки життя. Стосовно специфіки самопідтримання ценопопуляцій завдяки насіннєвому розмноженню виявлено, що найбільша кількість самосіву перших років життя зафіксована у надґрунтовому покриві ділянки з насадженням Cotoneaster lucidus. Під кронами Padellus mahaleb розвиток самосіву пригнічений через затінення; велика кількість молодих рослин зростає навколо "материнської ценопопуляції" по поверхні всього відвалу. Особливістю насіннєвого відновлення популяції Amelanchier spicata є вкрай незначна кількість самосіву першого та другого років життя. Встановлено, що найвища життєвість характерна для рослин Amelanchier spicata (8 балів), помірною – Cotoneaster lucidus (5-7 балів), а найнижча – Padellus mahaleb (4-5 балів). За результатами проведених досліджень зроблено висновок, що порівняно з деревними насадженнями, ценопопуляції кущів мають кращу здатність до самопідтримання за суворих екологічних умов залізорудних відвалів.

Published: January 2023

Background: A wound is a disorder of the continuity of the epithelial layer of the skin or mucosa and can result from physical or thermal damage. Proliferation and remodeling processes are important phases in incision wound healing. Celery is believed to have the potential to regulate the inflammatory phase and accelerate the process of proliferation and remodeling of wound tissue. This study aims to evaluate the potency of celery extract (Apium graveolens (Linn)) on incision wound healing in vivo.
Methods: This study was an in vivo experimental study. A total of 24 rats were used in this study and divided into 4 treatment groups (2 control and 2 treatment groups). Analysis of epithelial thickness ratio and epithelial length was performed using SPSS using univariate and bivariate.
Results: The control group had the lowest epithelial thickness ratio, followed by 50% extract, 75% extract, and finally, the gentamicin group. The length of newly formed epithelium in wounds treated with Apium graveolens (Linn) extract group 70% (mean 1.461 mm) was similar to that treated with gentamicin 0.1% (mean 1.457 mm) and much better than those treated without extract (0.869 mm).
Conclusion: Celery extract (Apium graveolens (Linn)) has the potential to accelerate the process of reepithelialization of incision wounds in vivo studies.
Familiar objects benefit more from transsaccadic feature predictions
Authors: Goktepe Nedim , Schütz Alexander C. 
Published: January 2023

AbstractThe transsaccadic feature prediction mechanism associates peripheral and foveal information belonging to the same object to make predictions about how an object seen in the periphery would appear in the fovea or vice versa. It is unclear if such transsaccadic predictions require experience with the object such that only familiar objects benefit from this mechanism by virtue of having peripheral-foveal associations. In two experiments, we tested whether familiar objects have an advantage over novel objects in peripheral-foveal matching and transsaccadic change detection tasks. In both experiments, observers were unknowingly familiarized with a small set of stimuli by completing a sham orientation change detection task. In the first experiment, observers subsequently performed a peripheral-foveal matching task, where they needed to pick the foveal test object that matched a briefly presented peripheral target. In the second experiment, observers subsequently performed a transsaccadic object change detection task where a peripheral target was exchanged or not exchanged with another target after the saccade, either immediately or after a 300-ms blank period. We found an advantage of familiar objects over novel objects in both experiments. While foveal-peripheral associations explained the familiarity effect in the matching task of the first experiment, the second experiment provided evidence for the advantage of peripheral-foveal associations in transsaccadic object change detection. Introducing a postsaccadic blank improved change detection performance in general but more for familiar than for novel objects. We conclude that familiar objects benefit from additional object-specific predictions.
Breaking Degeneracies in Formation Histories by Measuring Refractory Content in Gas Giants

Published: January 2023

Abstract
Relating planet formation to atmospheric composition has been a long-standing goal of the planetary science community. So far, most modeling studies have focused on predicting the enrichment of heavy elements and the C/O ratio in giant planet atmospheres. Although this framework provides useful constraints on the potential formation locations of gas giant exoplanets, carbon and oxygen measurements alone are not enough to determine where a given gas giant planet originated. Here, we show that characterizing the abundances of refractory elements (e.g., silicon and iron) can break these degeneracies. Refractory elements are present in the solid phase throughout most of the disk, and their atmospheric abundances therefore reflect the solid-to-gas accretion ratio during formation. We introduce a new framework that parameterizes the atmospheric abundances of gas giant exoplanets in the form of three ratios: Si/H, O/Si, and C/Si. Si/H traces the solid-to-gas accretion ratio of a planet and is loosely equivalent to earlier notions of “metallicity.” For O/Si and C/Si, we present a global picture of their variation with distance and time based on what we know from the solar system meteorites and an updated understanding of the variations of thermal processing within protoplanetary disks. We show that ultrahot Jupiters are ideal targets for atmospheric characterization studies using this framework as we can measure the abundances of refractories, oxygen, and carbon in the gas phase. Finally, we propose that hot Jupiters with silicate clouds and low water abundances might have accreted their envelopes between the soot line and the water snow line.
Molecular Mapping of DR Tau’s Protoplanetary Disk, Envelope, Outflow, and Large-scale Spiral Arm

Published: January 2023

Abstract
DR Tau has been noted for its unusually high variability in comparison with other T Tauri stars. Although it is one of the most extensively studied pre-main-sequence stars, observations with millimeter interferometry have so far been relatively limited. We present NOEMA images of 12CO, 13CO, C18O, SO, DCO+, and H2CO toward DR Tau at a resolution of ∼0.″5 (∼100 au). In addition to the protoplanetary disk, CO emission reveals an envelope, a faint asymmetric outflow, and a spiral arm with a clump. The ∼1200 au extent of the CO arm far exceeds that of the spiral arms previously detected in scattered light, which underlines the necessity of sensitive molecular imaging for contextualizing the disk environment. The kinematics and compact emission distribution of C18O, SO, DCO+, and H2CO indicate that they originate primarily from within the Keplerian circumstellar disk. The SO emission, though, also exhibits an asymmetry that may be due to interaction with infalling material or unresolved substructure. The complex environment of DR Tau is reminiscent of those of outbursting FUor sources and some EXor sources, suggesting that DR Tau’s extreme stellar activity could likewise be linked to disk instabilities promoted by large-scale infall.
A Study of Particle Transport in Young Pulsar Wind Nebulae
Authors: Zhu Bo-Tao , Lu Fang-Wu , Zhang Li 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
The broadband emission of numerous pulsar wind nebula (PWNe) in our Galaxy can be well described by synchrotron radiation and inverse Compton scattering from relativistic particles, specifically electrons and positrons. However, the particle transport mechanism is still under debate. We use here a time-dependent model to investigate the particle transport process of the young PWN, while the particle cooling processes are also analyzed. Following applications of the model to six young PWNe, our results show that (1) the particle cooling process is dominated by adiabatic loss in the low-energy band but by synchrotron loss in the high-energy band; (2) the advection dominates the particle transport process in the low-energy band, whereas the advection and diffusion codominate in the high-energy band, indicating that both advection and diffusion play an important role in particle transport; and (3) the diffusion coefficient is (2–360) × 1024 cm2 s−1 at the electron energy of 1 TeV, i.e., about 3 orders of magnitude smaller than the value considered to be the average in the Galaxy. We conclude that a slow-diffusion mechanism may explain the multiband observation of the sample of six young PWNe considered in this study.
