Abstract

Objective:The study sought to compare the predictive accuracy of clinical and ultrasound fetal weight estimation in predicting the actual birth weight of pregnant women at term at the FMC, Keffi, North central Nigeria.Materials and Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study that enrolled 360 consecutive pregnant women at term (37 weeks + 0day - 41weeks +6days), who met the inclusion criteria between 10thDecember 2018 to 25thJuly 2019. Informed consent was obtained from participants and a proforma was interviewer-administered. The clinical estimate was done using the Dare’s formula in the lying- in ward and labour ward. The ultrasound fetal weight estimation was done using an ultrasound scan machine imputed with the Hadlock formula mode (BPD, HC, AC, and FL) while the actual birth weight was measured in the labour room using the infant weighing scale. The data collected were analyzed using the Pearson’s Chi- square or Fisher’s exact test as appropriate, Pearson’s correlation analysis and student’s t test. Accuracy was determined using percentage error, absolute error, and proportion of estimates within 10% of actual birth weight; and compared using the Poisson’s z-test for two proportions. All analyses were performed, using the IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, version 20.0. (IBM Corp., Armonk, N.Y., USA) and Minitab, version 18.Results:Analysis showed that the clinical fetal weight estimation within 10% of the actual birth weight was not significantly lower than that of ultrasound fetal weight estimation for babies of all birth weight ( 41.5% vs. 55.0%, P = 0.064). The actual birth weight had a strong correlation with both clinical and ultrasound fetal weight estimation (r = 0.53, P <0.001 and r = 0.55, P < 0.001 respectively). The mean percentage error and mean absolute percentage error for normal weight babies (2.5- 3.99kg) was significantly higher in clinical method than ultrasound method (-13.29kg vs. 4.49 kg, P< 0.001) and (14.14kg vs. 9.47 kg, P< 0.001) respectively. Overall in most cases, the clinical method of fetal weight estimation overestimated the actual birth weight.Conclusion: It was concluded that, ultrasound method of fetal weight estimation is a better predictor of actual birth weight than the clinical method. However, clinical weight estimation can still be used in a low-resource setting such as ours.
Transition analysis of boundary-based active configurations in temporal simplicial complexes for ingredient co-occurrences in recipe streams
Authors: Fujisawa Koudai , Kumano Masahito , Kimura Masahiro 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Aiming at knowledge discovery for temporal sequences of cooking recipes published in social media platforms from the viewpoint of network science, we consider an analysis of temporal higher-order networks of ingredients derived from such recipe streams by focusing on the framework of simplicial complex. Previous work found interesting properties of temporal simplicial complexes for the human proximity interactions in five different social settings by examining the configuration transitions before and after triplet interaction events corresponding to 2-simplices. In this paper, as an effective extension of the previous work to the case of higher dimensional n-simplices corresponding to newly published recipes, we propose a novel method of configuration transition analysis by incorporating the following two features. First, to focus on changes in the topological structure of temporal simplicial complex, we incorporate analyzing the transitions of boundary-based configurations. Next, to focus on the temporal heterogeneity in usage activities of ingredients, we incorporate analyzing the transitions of active configurations by introducing the activity degree of configuration. Using real data of a Japanese recipe sharing site, we empirically evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, and reveal some characteristics of the temporal evolution of Japanese homemade recipes published in social media from the perspective of ingredient co-occurrences.
Multi-granularity three-way decision scheduling optimization based on cloud cluster bursty load
Authors: Wang Hui 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
In this paper, we analyze, predict and classify the load information in a multi-granular way based on the information of cloud platform cluster data released by Google 2019 to build three burst load prediction models. By analyzing the load on a single cloud machine, we predict its burst load in some future period. We combine the three-way decision theory to classify the machines into calm, intermediate, and active states based on the prediction results. We summarize the load characteristics of three machine states to establish three burst load models and propose different scheduling optimization strategies for the three models using the Colocation method to achieve the overall load balancing of cloud services.

Authors: Jones Elwin , Jones Ronald 
Published: March 2023

The purpose of this study was to examine the correlation between the leadership styles and the career success of women in nonprofit organizations. The Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire served as the instrument to identify transformation, transactional, and passive leadership styles. The development of a career success index through summing the coded values of data regarding job satisfaction, work-life balance, tenure in the nonprofit industry, tenure in current position, and compensation level facilitated correlational analysis with leadership style. The Gulf Coast region of the United States was the geographic region for the study. The results indicated a significant and positive correlation between the transformational and transactional leadership styles and the career success index, p = 0.024 for Pearson's Product Moment; p = 0.038 for Spearman's rho, and p = 0.012 for Pearson's Product Moment; p = 0.022 for Spearman's rho, respectively. No significant relationship existed between passive leadership style and the career success index, with p = 0.81 for Pearson's Product Moment and p = 0.983 for Spearman's rho. Keywords: Women in leadership, leadership style, career success of women, nonprofit leadership
Women Leaders and Narratives: The Power of Reflecting on Purpose and Career
Authors: Smith Deborah Nelson , Suby-Long Sallie 
Published: March 2023

This qualitative study explored ten women leaders' perspectives about the processes associated with constructing their leadership and purpose stories or narratives. The study participants first wrote, and then talked about their stories in a semi-structured interview. An overarching theme emerged from the data - narrative sharing was a challenging, yet beneficial process for the participants. Three sub-themes also emerged from the collective narratives. First, the process of reflection helped women identify times when their actions and decisions were purposeful, even though they may not have recognized it at the time. Second, reflection on purpose led participants to a clearer identification and articulation of leadership philosophy. Third, citing that sharing their narratives helped them identify times of leadership authenticity, participants indicated they intended to use similar practices to make current and future leadership/career decisions. Recommendations are included for organizations, educational institutions, and individuals who are interested in using narrative sharing as a leadership development tool.

Authors: Delisa Johnson  , Delmas Peggy 
Published: March 2023

The professional experiences and career advancement perceptions of Black, female, higher education professionals were examined in an effort to obtain qualitative and quantitative data that could positively impact practice and policy in higher education leadership. Data were collected using a mixed questionnaire that included survey items, open-ended questions, and demographic inquiries. One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVAs) was conducted to assess the difference in mean perception career advancement scores based on participants’ professional classification, highest level of education, and years of professional experience. No statistically significant differences (p > .05) were found. The lack of differences across demographics indicates that Black, female, higher education professionals have similar perceptions of career advancement, regardless of professional classification, education achieved, or years of experience.
A comparison of struvite precipitation thermodynamics and kinetics modelling techniques
Authors: Natividad-Marin Leynard , Burns Max William , Schneider Phil 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Solution thermodynamics and kinetic modelling applied to struvite crystallisation–precipitation were reviewed from diverse references to determine proximity between predicted and cited experimental measurements. These simulations show the expected variability range of struvite saturation calculation when only limited solution compositional information is given, showing acceptable agreement between predicted and experimental struvite mass. This work also compares results from struvite crystallisation kinetic studies on liquid phase species depletion, crystallisation induction time, primary nucleation, secondary nucleation, crystal growth, and crystal aggregation. Large inconsistencies between reported kinetics were observed in many scenarios. Variations in species depletion models highlighted that they are only suitably applied to the specific system from which they were regressed. Spontaneous primary nucleation was predicted to occur in the range of SI = 0.237–0.8. Predicted primary nucleation rates vary over at least 10 orders of magnitude (depending on supersaturation) because of uncertainties in interfacial tension and maximum achievable nucleation rate. Secondary nucleation rates are more agreeable, varying over approximately two orders of magnitude. Growth rates varied over five orders of magnitude due to variations in experimental conditions. Aggregation rates are not thoroughly examined enough to make any inferences.

Authors: Yang Zhang , Yang Song , Shiqiao Yang , Yuanhong Ding 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Rhodamine B (RhB) wastewater could be degraded by a three-dimensional electrolytic reactor with surface-modified titanium anodes, and a variety of materials had been tried to prepare for particles electrodes to enhance its removal effects, among them, granular activated carbon (GAC) with large specific surface areas and stable chemical properties was selected as particles materials and coated by manganese oxidation (Mn) as the main active ingredient. The experimental results showed that 98.3% of RhB and 60.7% of chemical oxygen demand were removed respectively, and the RhB wastewater's biodegradability was improved either. On the superficial sites of GAC/Mn–Sn particles, hydroxyl radicals were generated, and some absorbed RhB molecular was initially decolored by hypochlorite removing the two ethyl groups on both sides of the molecular, then oxidized by hydroxyl, and continually decomposed by these strong oxidants into a variety of intermediates.
Sugammadex versus Neostigmine for Reversal of Neuromuscular Blockade
in Adults and Children: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of
Randomized Controlled Trials
Authors: Chhabra Ridhi , Gupta Rachna , Gupta Lalit K. 
Published: March 2023

Background:
Cholinesterase inhibitors, such as neostigmine and edrophonium, commonly
used to reverse the residual effects of nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking drugs at the
end of surgery are associated with a high rate of residual neuromuscular blockade (NMB). Due to
its direct mechanism of action, sugammadex is associated with rapid and predictable reversal of
deep NMB. The current analysis compares the clinical efficacy and risk of postoperative nausea
and vomiting (PONV) on using sugammadex or neostigmine for routine NMB reversal in adult and
pediatric populations.

Methods:
PubMed and ScienceDirect were searched as the primary databases. Randomized controlled
trials comparing sugammadex with neostigmine for routine NMB reversal in adult and pediatric
patients have been included. The primary efficacy endpoint was the time from initiation of
sugammadex or neostigmine to the recovery of a time-of-four ratio (TOF) ≥ 0.9. PONV events
have been reported as secondary outcomes.

Results:
A total of 26 studies have been included in this meta-analysis, 19 for adults with 1574 patients
and 7 for children with 410 patients. Sugammadex, when compared to neostigmine, has
been reported to take a shorter time to reverse NMB in adults (mean difference = -14.16 min; 95%
CI [-16.88, -11.43], P < 0.01), as well as in children (mean difference = -26.36 min; 95% CI [-
40.16, -12.57], P < 0.01). Events of PONV have been found to be similar in both the groups in
adults, but significantly lower in children treated with sugammadex, i.e., 7 out of 145 with sugammadex
versus 35 out of 145 with neostigmine (odds ratio = 0.17; 95% CI [0.07, 0.40]).

Conclusion:
Sugammadex is associated with a significantly shorter period of reversal from NMB
in comparison to neostigmine in adult and pediatric patients. Regarding PONV, the use of sugammadex
for NMB antagonism may offer a better option for pediatric patients.

Critical Criteria and Countermeasures for Mobile Health Developers to Ensure Mobile Health Privacy and Security: Mixed Methods Study
Authors: Rezaee Rita , Khashayar Mahboobeh , Saeedinezhad Saeed , Nasiri Mahdi , Zare Sahar 
Published: March 2023

Background
Despite the importance of the privacy and confidentiality of patients’ information, mobile health (mHealth) apps can raise the risk of violating users’ privacy and confidentiality. Research has shown that many apps provide an insecure infrastructure and that security is not a priority for developers.

Objective
This study aims to develop and validate a comprehensive tool to be considered by developers for assessing the security and privacy of mHealth apps.

Methods
A literature search was performed to identify papers on app development, and those papers reporting criteria for the security and privacy of mHealth were assessed. The criteria were extracted using content analysis and presented to experts. An expert panel was held for determining the categories and subcategories of the criteria according to meaning, repetition, and overlap; impact scores were also measured. Quantitative and qualitative methods were used for validating the criteria. The validity and reliability of the instrument were calculated to present an assessment instrument.

Results
The search strategy identified 8190 papers, of which 33 (0.4%) were deemed eligible. A total of 218 criteria were extracted based on the literature search; of these, 119 (54.6%) criteria were removed as duplicates and 10 (4.6%) were deemed irrelevant to the security or privacy of mHealth apps. The remaining 89 (40.8%) criteria were presented to the expert panel. After calculating impact scores, the content validity ratio (CVR), and the content validity index (CVI), 63 (70.8%) criteria were confirmed. The mean CVR and CVI of the instrument were 0.72 and 0.86, respectively. The criteria were grouped into 8 categories: authentication and authorization, access management, security, data storage, integrity, encryption and decryption, privacy, and privacy policy content.

Conclusions
The proposed comprehensive criteria can be used as a guide for app designers, developers, and even researchers. The criteria and the countermeasures presented in this study can be considered to improve the privacy and security of mHealth apps before releasing the apps into the market. Regulators are recommended to consider an established standard using such criteria for the accreditation process, since the available self-certification of developers is not reliable enough.
