Published: February 2023

Introductions: Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) is a condition where the mother suffers from a chronic shortage of food which results in health problems for the mother. CED can occur in women of childbearing age and in pregnant women. Someone is said to be at risk of CED if the Mid Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) is < 23,5 cm. A state of prolonged energy deprivation in women of childbearing age and pregnant women is characterized by a MUAC of 23,5 cm.
Aims: The purpose of this case study is to carry out midwifery care for pregnant women with Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) with a midwifery care management approach, starting with a basic data review, data interpretation, identification of diagnoses or potential problems, determine the need for immediate action, midwifery care planning, implementation of midwifery care as needed and evaluation.
Methods: The method used in this article is a descriptive method in the form of a case study with a midwifery approach. This case study uses a descriptive-analytical method,
Results: The midwifery care process lasts for 6 months, with intensive assessment and monitoring of the client's condition to get good results. The formation of an understanding of the dangers of CED in pregnancy has succeeded in making the client comply with the consumption of the given and balanced food intake as recommended.
Conclusions: The results of this care indicate that there is an increase in body weight and Mid Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) in pregnant women with Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) conditions influenced by proper midwifery care, especially in supplementary feeding and can be improved by providing correct and effective information according to client needs.
How time consuming are general practitioners’ home visits? Insights from a cross-sectional study in Switzerland
Authors: Fritz Rafael D. , Merlo Christoph , Essig Stefan 
Published: February 2023

BACKGROUND: Worldwide, the number of home visits has been decreasing over past decades. Lack of time and long journeys have been reported to hinder general practitioners (GPs) from conducting home visits. In Switzerland also, home visits have declined. Time constraints in a busy GP practice could be one reason. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyse the time requirements of home visits in Switzerland.
METHODS: A one-year cross-sectional study involving GPs from the Swiss Sentinel Surveillance System (Sentinella) was conducted in 2019. GPs provided basic information on all home visits performed throughout the year and additionally detailed reports of up to 20 consecutive home visits. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were run to identify factors affecting journey and consultation duration.
RESULTS: In total, 95 GPs conducted 8489 home visits in Switzerland, 1139 of which have been characterised in detail. On average, GPs made 3.4 home visits per week. Average journey and consultation duration were 11.8 and 23.9 minutes, respectively. Prolonged consultations were provided by GPs working part-time (25.1 minutes), in group practice (24.9 minutes) or in urban regions (24.7 minutes). Rural environments and short journey to patient’s home were both found to lower the odds of performing a long consultation compared to a short consultation (odds ratio [OR] 0.27, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.16–0.44 and OR 0.60, 95% CI 0.46–0.77, respectively). Emergency visits (OR 2.20, 95% CI 1.21–4.01), out-of-hours appointments (OR 3.06, 95% CI 2.36–3.97) and day care involvement (OR 2.78, 95% CI 2.13–3.62) increased the odds of having a long consultation. Finally, patients in their 60s had markedly higher odds of receiving long consultations than patients in their 90s (OR 4.13, 95% CI 2.27–7.62), whereas lack of chronic conditions lowered the odds of a long consultation (OR 0.09, 95% CI 0.00–0.43).
CONCLUSION: GPs perform rather few but long home visits, especially for multimorbid patients. GPs working part-time, in group practice or in urban regions devote more time to home visits.

INTRODUCTION: Increasing life expectancy raises concerns whether the years gained will be spent free of disability. Lately, trends across countries have been heterogeneous. This work examined recent trends in disability-free life expectancy and life expectancy with mild or severe disability in Switzerland.
METHODS: Life expectancy was estimated using national life tables, by sex and 5-year age groups. Based on Sullivan’s method, disability-free life expectancy and life expectancy with disability were computed using information from the Swiss Health Survey on age- and sex-specific prevalence of mild and severe disability. Life expectancy, disability-free life expectancy and life expectancy with disability were estimated in 2007, 2012, and 2017, at 65 and 80 years of age, for both sexes.
RESULTS: Between 2007 and 2017, disability-free life expectancy at 65 and 80 years of age increased by 2.1 and 1.4 years, respectively, in men and by 1.5 and 1.1 years, respectively, in women. Meanwhile, life expectancy with mild disability decreased by 6 months in both sexes at age 65 and in men at age 80, but only 1 month in women at age 80. Life expectancy with severe disability also decreased at both ages, by approximately 6 months in women but only 2 to 3 months in men. The proportion of disability-free life expectancy increased significantly in both sexes and ages. For example, disability-free life expectancy / life expectancy at age 65 increased from 67% (95% confidence interval [CI] 66‒69) to 73% (95% CI 71‒74) in women and from 77% (95% CI 75‒79) to 82% (95% CI 81‒84) in men.
CONCLUSION: From 2007 to 2017, disability-free life expectancy at age 65 and 80 increased in Swiss women and men. These gains outweighed those in life expectancy, reflecting some compression of morbidity.

The results of the ground-based absolute gravity and space geodetic measurements for the Altai Mountains were considered in combination with EIGEN-6C4 Global Geopotential Model (ETOPO1 Global Relief Model) generated from the satellite data. Analysis was made on different kinds of data: model values for the vertical component of gravity, values of Bouguer and Faye gravity reductions, variations of the vertical gravity gradient, and changes in altitude of the measurement sites. With EIGEN-6C4 model for Bouguer reduction, the crustal thickness curve was drawn along the Novosibirsk (southern West Siberia) – Ukok Plateau (Altai Mountains) line with a length of 800 km. The Moho depth increases from 40 km in the northwest of the area to 51 km in the southeast. For the homogeneous crust model, there was obtained the Moho depth distribution in the Altai Mountains and their foothills.The analysis of the results of modeling Bouguer and Faye reductions, the data on quasigeoid heights and the relationship between relief height and Bouguer anomalies implies that the Altai Mountains area as a whole is isostatically compensated. Non-compensated are some intermountain basins, such as, for example, the Kurai and Chuya valleys.

En este escenario, el presente artículo explora los discursos sobre la protección de la privacidad de los usuarios de las plataformas digitales en las escuelas y el cuidado de los derechos de la infancia por parte de los principales actores del campo educativo. El estudio, de corte cualitativo, se basa en la realización de 14 entrevistas a informantes clave y analiza el discurso de sus posicionamientos y manifestaciones en relación con el uso de plataformas digitales comerciales en la escuela, la gestión de datos masivos, los derechos de la infancia y el derecho a la privacidad. Los resultados de esta investigación arrojan luz sobre las tensiones discursivas existentes entre los distintos actores del campo educativo alrededor de la entrada de plataformas digitales de corporaciones tecnológicas en la escuela pública.
Five copper homeostasis gene clusters encode the Cu-efflux resistome of the highly copper-tolerant Methylorubrum extorquens AM1
Authors: Dávalos Araceli , García-de los Santos Alejandro 
Published: February 2023

Background
In the last decade, the use of copper has reemerged as a potential strategy to limit healthcare-associated infections and to control the spread of multidrug-resistant pathogens. Numerous environmental studies have proposed that most opportunistic pathogens have acquired antimicrobial resistance in their nonclinical primary habitat. Thus, it can be presumed that copper-resistant bacteria inhabiting a primary commensal niche might potentially colonize clinical environments and negatively affect the bactericidal efficacy of Cu-based treatments. The use of copper in agricultural fields is one of the most important sources of Cu pollution that may exert selection pressure for the increase of copper resistance in soil and plant-associated bacteria. To assess the emergence of copper-resistant bacteria in natural habitats, we surveyed a laboratory collection of bacterial strains belonging to the order Rhizobiales. This study proposes that Methylorubrum extorquens AM1 is an environmental isolate well adapted to thrive in copper-rich environments that could act as a reservoir of copper resistance genes.

Methods
The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of CuCl2 were used to estimate the copper tolerance of eight plant-associated facultative diazotrophs (PAFD) and five pink-pigmented facultative methylotrophs (PPFM) belonging to the order Rhizobiales presumed to come from nonclinical and nonmetal-polluted natural habitats based on their reported source of isolation. Their sequenced genomes were used to infer the occurrence and diversity of Cu-ATPases and the copper efflux resistome of Mr. extorquens AM1.

Results
These bacteria exhibited minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of CuCl2 ranging between 0.020 and 1.9 mM. The presence of multiple and quite divergent Cu-ATPases per genome was a prevalent characteristic. The highest copper tolerance exhibited by Mr. extorquens AM1 (highest MIC of 1.9 mM) was similar to that found in the multimetal-resistant model bacterium Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34 and in clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii. The genome-predicted copper efflux resistome of Mr. extorquens AM1 consists of five large (6.7 to 25.7 kb) Cu homeostasis gene clusters, three clusters share genes encoding Cu-ATPases, CusAB transporters, numerous CopZ chaperones, and enzymes involved in DNA transfer and persistence. The high copper tolerance and the presence of a complex Cu efflux resistome suggest the presence of relatively high copper tolerance in environmental isolates of Mr. extorquens.

This study aims to determine the effect of different priming methods on the viability and early growth of upland rice under drought stress. Priming is an important approach to improve the resistance of upland rice plants to drought stress from the germination phase to growth, especially on sub-optimal land. There are several efficient priming methods as seed pretreatment to increase germination and tolerance to drought stress. An effective priming method is needed to increase the germination and growth of upland rice seedlings for application in dryland agriculture. Therefore, an experiment was conducted at the Seed laboratory of Pangkep State Polytechnic of Agriculture, Indonesia, from September to October of 2022 to investigate the effect of several priming methods on the germination and growth of upland rice seedlings under drought stress. The experiment consisted of 2 stages, germination testing and seedling growth phase testing with the addition of water stress treatment. Experiment 1 was conducted in a completely randomized design (CRD) with four replications, including Control (no priming), Osmopriming with 15% and 20% PEG solution, Redox Priming with 3% and 6% H2O2 solution, and Organic Priming using 50% and 75% Moringa leaf extract. Experiment 2 was conducted using a two-factor of factorial in Randomized Block design (RBD) with three replications. The first factor is the Seedling results of stage 1 experiments (selected the best of each priming method) includes 4 treatments each Control treatment, Osmopriming with 15% PEG solution, Redox Priming with 3% H2O2 solution, and Organic Priming with 50% Moringa Leaf Extract. The second factor is the level of Drought Stress conducted by 100%, 60%, and 30% of Field Capacity. The results showed that the priming method with Osmopriming 15% PEG solution gave the best results on Seed germination percentage (87.5%) followed by Organic priming with 50% Moringa Leaf Extract (SGP 85%). Under drought stress conditions with 30% field capacity, the highest increase in proline levels was observed with H2O2 redox priming 3% (10.3 µ-mol. g-1 ), while the average root growth of all primed seedlings showed better root growth than seeds without priming treatment. Seed priming gives better results on the growth and physiological activities of upland rice at several levels of drought stress, in the early growth phase of seedlings

ImportancePrior studies have suggested patients with heart failure (HF) from rural areas have worse clinical outcomes. Contemporary differences between rural and urban hospitals in quality of care and clinical outcomes for patients hospitalized for HF remain poorly understood.ObjectiveTo assess quality of care and clinical outcomes for US patients hospitalized for HF at rural vs urban hospitals.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis retrospective cohort study analyzed 774 419 patients hospitalized for HF across 569 sites in the Get With The Guidelines–Heart Failure (GWTG-HF) registry between January 1, 2014, and September 30, 2021. Postdischarge outcomes were assessed in a subset of 161 996 patients linked to Medicare claims. Data were analyzed from August 2022 to January 2023.Main Outcomes and MeasuresGWTG-HF quality measures, in-hospital mortality, length of stay, and 30-day mortality and readmission outcomes.ResultsThis study included 19 832 patients (2.6%) and 754 587 patients (97.4%) hospitalized at 49 rural hospitals (8.6%) and 520 urban hospitals (91.4%), respectively. Of 774 419 included patients, 366 161 (47.3%) were female, and the median (IQR) age was 73 (62-83) years. Compared with patients at urban hospitals, patients at rural hospitals were older (median [IQR] age, 74 [64-84] years vs 73 [61-83] years; standardized difference, 10.63) and more likely to be non-Hispanic White (14 572 [73.5%] vs 498 950 [66.1%]; standardized difference, 34.47). In adjusted models, patients at rural hospitals were less likely to be prescribed cardiac resynchronization therapy (adjusted risk difference [aRD], −13.5%; adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.44; 95% CI, 0.22-0.92), angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker (aRD, −3.7%; aOR, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.53-0.96), and an angiotensin receptor–neprilysin inhibitor (aRD, −5.0%; aOR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.47-0.98) at discharge. In-hospital mortality was similar between rural and urban hospitals (460 of 19 832 [2.3%] vs 20 529 of 754 587 [2.7%]; aOR, 0.86; 95% CI, 0.70-1.07). Patients at rural hospitals were less likely to have a length of stay of 4 or more days (aOR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.67-0.85). Among Medicare beneficiaries, there were no significant differences between rural and urban hospitals in 30-day HF readmission (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 1.03; 95% CI, 0.90-1.19), all-cause readmission (aHR, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.91-1.04), and all-cause mortality (aHR, 1.05; 95% CI, 0.91-1.21).Conclusions and RelevanceIn this large contemporary cohort of US patients hospitalized for HF, care at rural hospitals was independently associated with lower use of some guideline-recommended therapies at discharge and shorter length of stay. In-hospital mortality and 30-day postdischarge outcomes were similar at rural and urban hospitals.

ImportanceChildren and adolescents spend considerable time on the internet, which makes them a highly vulnerable group for the development of problematic usage patterns. A variety of screening methods have already been developed and validated for social network use disorder (SNUD); however, a systematic review of SNUD in younger age groups has not been performed.ObjectiveTo review published reports on screening tools assessing SNUD in children and adolescents with a maximum mean age of 18.9 years.Evidence ReviewTo identify instruments for the assessment of SNUD, a systematic literature search was conducted in the databases PsycINFO, PubMed, Web of Science, PsycArticles, and Scopus. The final search took place on May 2, 2022. Psychometric properties of available tools were examined and evaluated to derive recommendations for suitable instruments for individuals up to 18 years of age.FindingsA total of 5746 publications were identified, of which 2155 were excluded as duplicates. Of the remaining 3591 nonredundant publications, 3411 studies were assessed as not relevant after title and abstract screening. A full-text analysis of 180 remaining studies classified as potentially eligible resulted in a final inclusion of 29 studies revealing validation evidence for a total of 19 tools. The study quality was mostly moderate. With regard to validation frequency, 3 tools exhibited the largest evidence base: Social Media Disorder Scale (SMDS), the short version of the Bergen Facebook Addiction Scale, and Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale–Short Form (BSMAS-SF). Among these, 1 study tested a parental version (SMDS-P) for its psychometric properties. Taking all criteria into account, the strongest recommendation was made for the SMDS and BSMAS-SF.Conclusions and RelevanceResults suggest that the SMDS-SF and BSMAS-SF were appropriate screening measures for SNUD. Advantages of the SMDS are the availability of a short version and the possibility of an external parental rating.
Ultimate flexural strength of rectangular concrete‐filled steel tubular beam‐columns using high‐strength materials
Authors: Fujinaga Takashi 
Published: February 2023

AbstractThe ultimate flexural strength of concrete‐filled steel tubular (CFST) beam‐columns is calculated using the full‐plastic strength as per the “AIJ Recommendations for Design and Construction of Concrete Filled Steel Tubular Structures”. However, the full‐plastic strength might overestimate the ultimate strength of rectangular CFST beam‐columns, when the width‐to‐thickness ratio is significant and/or high‐strength materials are used. The calculation of the ultimate flexural strength when it exceeds the applicable range of AIJ CFT recommendations is based on a method that considers the stress reduction on the compression side of the steel tube or outermost edge strain of the concrete. However, both stress reduction and outermost edge strain should be considered when high‐strength materials are used in CFST for accurate ultimate strength formulas. In this study, a simple evaluation method for the ultimate flexural strength of rectangular CFST beam‐columns was proposed using the maximum strain at the extreme concrete compression fiber and stress reduction on the compression side of the steel tube. In addition, the appropriate strain at the extreme concrete fiber needed to accurately calculate the ultimate strength was discussed.
Improving and expanding hedgerows—Recommendations for a semi‐natural habitat in agricultural landscapes
Authors: Staley Joanna T. , Wolton Robert , Norton Lisa R. 
Published: February 2023

Abstract

Hedgerows provide habitat, shelter and resources for many species including functionally important taxa and threatened species. Hedgerows store carbon both above‐ and below‐ground and provide a range of other ecosystem services. Policies incentivizing increases in the extent and quality of hedgerows require evidence to determine how these increases may best support a wide range of taxa and to improve hedgerow habitat quality.

Here, available evidence for increasing hedgerow extent and improving their quality is discussed in the context of current conservation policy. Moderate evidence supports a substantial increase in average hedgerow extent from 4.2 km/km2 to around 10 km/km2 in the United Kingdom, to optimize support for many wildlife taxa, habitat connectivity and carbon storage.

Evidence also supports the development of wider and structurally denser hedges with more diverse structures and management approaches, and hedgerow networks that are well connected with each other and with other semi‐natural habitats.

However, barriers may hinder the implementation of hedgerow policies, and there remain substantive gaps in the evidence base. Knowledge gaps include the current quality or condition of UK hedges, understanding in which landscape contexts new hedges would best be planted to support biodiversity, the role of hedgerows in connectivity as species' ranges change under a future climate, and whether an increase in hedgerow extent might increase the spread of invasive species, tree pests or diseases.

These gaps must be filled if conservation policies, including future agri‐environment schemes, are to ensure that hedgerows reach their considerable potential in aiding nature's recovery and addressing climate change.
