Introduction
The proportion of neck injuries due to traffic accidents is increasing. Little is known about high-cost patients with acute whiplash-associated disorder (WAD). The present study aimed to investigate whether time to first visit for conventional medicine, multiple doctor visits, or alternative medicine could predict high-cost patients with acute WAD in Japan.

Methods
Data from a compulsory, no-fault, government automobile liability insurance agency in Japan between 2014 and 2019 were used. The primary economic outcome was the total cost of healthcare per person. Treatment-related variables were assessed based on the time to first visit for conventional and alternative medicine, multiple doctor visits, and visits for alternative medicine. Patients were categorized according to total healthcare cost (low, medium, and high cost). The variables were subjected to univariate and multivariate analysis to compare high-cost and low-cost patients.

Results
A total of 104,911 participants with a median age of 42 years were analyzed. The median total healthcare cost per person was 67,366 yen. The cost for consecutive medicine, for consecutive and alternative medicine, and total healthcare costs were significantly associated with all clinical outcomes. Female sex, being a homemaker, a history of WAD claim, residential area, patient responsibility in a traffic accident, multiple doctor visits, and visits for alternative medicine were identified as independent predictive factors for a high cost in multivariate analysis. Multiple doctor visits and visits for alternative medicine showed large differences between groups (odds ratios 2673 and 694, respectively). Patients with multiple doctor visits and visits for alternative medicine showed a significantly high total healthcare cost per person (292,346 yen) compared to those without (53,587 yen).

Conclusions
A high total healthcare cost is strongly associated with multiple doctor visits and visits for alternative medicine in patients with acute WAD in Japan.

BackgroundChronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection contributes to substantial morbidity and mortality among adults living with HIV. Cascades of HCV care support monitoring of program performance, but data from Asia are limited. We assessed regional HCV coinfection and cascade outcomes among adults living with HIV in care from 2010–2020.MethodsPatients ≥18 years old with confirmed HIV infection on antiretroviral therapy (ART) at 11 clinical sites in Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, South Korea, Thailand and Vietnam were included. HCV- and HIV-related treatment and laboratory data were collected from those with a positive HCV antibody (anti-HCV) test after January 2010. An HCV cascade was evaluated, including proportions positive for anti-HCV, tested for HCV RNA or HCV core antigen (HCVcAg), initiated on HCV treatment, and achieved sustained virologic response (SVR). Factors associated with screening uptake, treatment initiation, and treatment response were analyzed using Fine and Gray’s competing risk regression model.ResultsOf 24,421 patients, 9169 (38%) had an anti-HCV test, and 971 (11%) had a positive result. The proportion with positive anti-HCV was 12.1% in 2010–2014, 3.9% in 2015–2017, and 3.8% in 2018–2020. From 2010 to 2014, 34% with positive anti-HCV had subsequent HCV RNA or HCVcAg testing, 66% initiated HCV treatment, and 83% achieved SVR. From 2015 to 2017, 69% with positive anti-HCV had subsequent HCV RNA or HCVcAg testing, 59% initiated HCV treatment, and 88% achieved SVR. From 2018 to 2020, 80% had subsequent HCV RNA or HCVcAg testing, 61% initiated HCV treatment, and 96% achieved SVR. Having chronic HCV in later calendar years and in high-income countries were associated with increased screening, treatment initiation or achieving SVR. Older age, injecting drug use HIV exposure, lower CD4 and higher HIV RNA were associated with reduced HCV screening or treatment initiation.ConclusionsOur analysis identified persistent gaps in the HCV cascade of care, highlighting the need for focused efforts to strengthen chronic HCV screening, treatment initiation, and monitoring among adult PLHIV in the Asia region.
The Information System for Improving the Effectiveness of ECE Services During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Subhan Subhan 
Published: June 2023

Purpose – The pandemic-era policy that requires schools to conduct face-to-face meetings is an issue that cannot be taken "lightly". The trend of face-to-face learning that has entrenched makes schools, including ECCE institutions, "profitable". There are not many alternatives that can be done, other than using online face to face applications that have been popular such as Whatsapp and other Messanger. However, the use of these applications cannot cover all Early Childhood Education (ECE) learning needs with their own characteristics that are generally different from learning at other levels of education. Therefore, a more suitable online learning system is needed such as through the Si-Pappa Information System/Application.
Design/methods/approach – For this purpose, in this study, the PAR (Participation Action Research) Method was used with assisted objects, namely 10 ECE Institutions in Palopo City which have been partners of the Islamic Early Childhood Education IAIN Palopo Study Program. Data collection methods utilizing Performance Tests are reinforced by unstructured interviews and direct observation.
Findings – The results of data analysis, the parameters of the results of the implementation of service were achieved, namely the average participant who was able to master the parameters of more than 83%. From this, it can be concluded that the Application of Information Systems (Si-Pappa) can improve the effectiveness of ECCE services during the pandemic in Palopo City.
Research implications/limitations – This study related to the problems of learning effectiveness during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Practical implications – The use of the Si-Pappa application allows parents to conduct direct and measurable consultations from the existing menu, making teachers provide methodical assistance because the video calls made are directly integrated into each participant's account so that it can be directly reviewed or confirmed from other menus such as autentic assessment conditions that show photos of children, flow charts or worksheets of learning activities, anecdotal notes related to special or unique conditions of children, and various other comparative data that can be used in determining mood conditions, causes used in making decisions to follow up to determine a wiser and more comprehensive solution for children.
Originality/value – The impact of teacher understanding of the concept of learning from home in the context of using applications is that teachers not only view learning applications such as Si-Pappa only as learning tools or media, but are able to appreciate the presence of applications as assistance partners that will make learning more effective.

Three-dimensional CFD study on thermo-hydraulic behaviour of finned tubes in a heat exchange system for heat transfer enhancement
Authors: Raje Mohit , Dhiman Amit Kumar 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
The present study performs a three-dimensional CFD analysis to investigate the hydrodynamic and thermal properties of annular finned tubes in a heat exchange system. All computations are performed in the turbulent flow regime (4330 ≤ Re ≤ 8790), and the Transition SST model is applied for turbulence modelling. The impact of Prandtl number (0.7 ≤ Pr ≤ 50) on the various parameters, such as the heat transfer coefficient, heat transfer rate, and pressure drop, are considered. The results indicate that the thermo-hydraulic behaviour is significantly affected by incrementing both Reynolds and Prandtl numbers. The fin’s surface temperature distribution is examined to get a better insight into its thermal performance, and it is observed that the rear portion of the fin contributes the least to heat transfer. Other important parameters like the fin efficiency and Colburn heat transfer factor are found to significantly impact the performance of the heat exchange system for the above range of settings. The velocity contours show the horseshoe vortex formation near the fin-tube junction, and the channelling effect is observed between consecutive tubes. Different fluids are compared based on the j/f factor for enhanced heat transfer at the minimum possible flow resistance.

The “Right to City” in the Era of Crowdsourcing
Authors: Flynn Alexandra 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
This article explores the meaning and context of crowdsourcing at the municipal scale. In order to legitimately govern, local governments seek feedback and engagement from actors and bodies beyond the state. At the same time, crowdsourcing efforts are increasingly being adopted by entities – public and private – to digitally transform local services and processes. But how do we know what the “the right to the city” (RTTC) means when it comes to meaningful and participatory decision-making? And how do we know if participatory efforts called crowdsourcing—a practice articulated in a 2006 Wired article in the context of the tech sector—when policy ideas are sought at the municipal scale? Grounded in the ideals of Henri Lefebvre’s RTTC, the article brings together typologies of public participation to advance a conceptualization of ‘crowdsourcing’ specific to local governance. Applying this approach to a smart city initiative in Toronto, Canada, I argue that for crowdsourcing to be taken seriously as a means of inclusive and participatory decision-making that seeks to advance the RTTC, it must have connection to governance mechanisms that aim to integrate public perspectives into policy decisions. Where crowdsourcing is disconnected to decision-making processes, it is simply lip service, not meaningful participation.
Crowdsourcing Compliance: The Use of WikiRate to Promote Corporate Supply Chain Transparency
Authors: Sarfaty Galit A. 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
This article analyzes the use of crowdsourcing to promote corporate sustainability by assessing compliance with supply chain disclosure laws. It draws on a case study of WikiRate.org as a novel example of crowdsourcing compliance with respect to the UK Modern Slavery Act and U.S. conflict minerals legislation (section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act). WikiRate is an open research platform whose mission is to crowdsource better companies by motivating corporations to be transparent about their environmental, social, and governance performance. In particular, WikiRate’s projects on modern slavery and conflict minerals harness the power of citizens to evaluate the quality of corporate disclosures produced in accordance with these laws.
Following an analysis of its projects on modern slavery and conflict minerals, I evaluate the challenges of using crowdsourcing to assess legal compliance, including the potential manipulation of data and the difficulty of relying on non-expert citizens to assess complex information in corporate disclosures. I argue that one must identify the appropriate “crowd” that would be most capable of assessing compliance with a given law. While crowdsourcing platforms such as WikiRate invite a broad range of stakeholders to assess compliance, the reality is that only a limited set of individuals may be able to meaningfully participate given the complexity of supply chain disclosures. Thus, “expertsourcing” may be a more appropriate tool for assessing compliance with certain laws as it limits participation to citizens with specialized expertise.
Effect of impactor nose form on the impact behavior of reinforced composite materials
Authors: Dogan Sonay , Arman Yusuf , Dogan Akar 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
The goal of the present study is to investigate the influence of impactor shape on the low-velocity impact behavior of the composite panels manufactured with different reinforcement materials at the same thicknesses, experimentally. Kevlar, carbon, S-2 glass woven fabric and epoxy matrix have been used to manufacture thermoset composites with the vacuum-assisted resin infusion molding method. The Fractovis plus test machine with a 12.7 mm diameter hemispherical and two different conical impactor noses was used to perform impact tests. The effects of impactor shapes on the low-velocity impact behavior have been compared for 20 J, 40 J, and 60 J energy levels. Although at the same impact energy level, S-2 glass fiber-reinforced epoxy specimens have a higher perforation threshold than carbon and Kevlar fiber-reinforced epoxy. Because to achieve the same thickness, the number of S-2 glass layers was greater than the number of carbon and Kevlar layers. Additionally, the form of the impactor greatly influenced the perforation threshold.

Authors: Kocadağistan Mustafa Engin , Çinar Oğuzhan , Teker Tanju 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
In this study, AISI 430 and HARDOX 500 steels were joined by cold metal transfer (CMT) welding method. The properties and microstructural changes of the welding and HAZ regions were investigated by OM and SEM analyses. Microhardness, notch impact, and tensile tests were performed to determine the mechanical properties of the welded specimens. The ruptured surfaces of the test specimens after the impact test were examined using SEM. Coarse grains were formed in the HAZ regions but were limited to the low-temperature input of the cold metal transfer welding. The N3 specimen was broken from AISI 430 base metal and the elongation amount was 16.32 mm. Tensile strengths were from 380 to 493 MPa. The mechanical properties of AISI 430 and HARDOX 500 steels combined with CMT welding increased significantly and weldability was proven possible.

Published: June 2023

Abstract
Successful synthesis of several dibutyl-, diphenyl- and triphenyltin(IV) carboxylate compounds and evaluation of their activity as anticancer against leukemia cancer cell, L-1210 was reported. The compounds were synthesized by reacting dibutyltin(IV) oxide (DBTO) (1), diphenyltin(IV) oxide (DPTO) (4) and triphenyltin(IV) hydroxide (TPTOH) (7) with respective carboxylic acids, and subsequently characterized using NMR, FTIR, and UV–Vis spectroscopies, microelemental analyzer, and melting point apparatus. The compounds were then tested as anticancer, revealing that derivatives of triphenyltin(IV) (compounds 8 dan 9) exhibit the IC50 value of 3.7 and 2.9 μg/mL, respectively, which are much higher activity than those of dibutyltin(IV) and diphenyltin(IV) derivatives.
The Violent Shepherd: Constructing Legitimate Violence in Pre-Nicene Christianity
Authors: Rotiroti Francesco 
Published: June 2023

Summary
In the present article, I analyze Greek and Latin sources of pre-Nicene Christianity and argue that violence, although generally overlooked, constitutes an intrinsic and significant aspect of the early Christian model of pastoral rule. I premise my argument on an understanding of violence that rejects so-called ‘legitimist’ definitions, which subordinate the judgment on violence to a judgment on legitimacy and reserve the label of violence for illegitimate actions alone. Congenitally embedded in a network of conflictual relations, the shepherd of early Christian imagery is primarily tasked with the salvation of the sheep from enemies whose ambiguous identity, I argue, often betrays their provenance from within the flock. The shepherd is also engaged in disciplining his animals through measures that include severe physical punishments and exclusion from the herd. To conclude, I argue that the pastoral metaphor is itself an especially powerful instrument in the discursive construction of legitimate violence. For a relevant strand of ancient thought, to frame a particular institution in terms of the shepherd-flock relationship is, I argue, to conceive of it as replicative of the natural and normative order of reality, while also making certain acts of violence appear as the preferable course of action to be sought in the government of the community.
V. Der Dekretalenapparat Papst Innozenz’ IV. Ein bekannter Unbekannter
Authors: Bertram Martin 
Published: June 2023

Abstract

The Apparatus on the Decretals by pope Innocent IV: A known unknown. Other than the usual approach which focuses on the juridical content of the famous decretal commentary, the present paper highlights its structural and formal features. Peculiarities include unusual methods of argumentation, striking disproportions in the attention given to individual decretals, increasing frequency of gaps due to rudimentary treatment of certain decretals and complete omission of others, a program of textual criticism halfway abandoned, a rich tradition, where some 30 early editions, ca. 160 medieval manuscripts and a mysterious originale remain without apparent connections, a daunting jungle of so called additiones. The paper, which asks many questions leaving them without answers, should nevertheless help to understand the incomparable commentary.

Published: June 2023

The global challenge of moving toward a low-carbon energy system heightens the tension between states’ economic development efforts and environmental concerns. In Vietnam, increasing energy demand has led to a boom in hydropower development in recent decades. For local communities, dam construction has brought displacement, involuntary resettlement, deteriorating income and living standards, and rising poverty. However, from the central government’s perspective, the negative local impacts of hydropower projects are negligible compared to their national benefits. This study uses the construction of the Bản Vẽ hydropower plant to illustrate how government entities expand their control of villagers’ livelihoods in the name of environmentalism. Spanning nearly twenty years, our case study reports on changes in the Vietnamese approach to authoritarian environmentalism. The authorities initially promoted voluntary relocation with a brochure depicting the high quality of resettlement areas. When the remaining locals hesitated, because they had heard that the promised new homes had various problems, the authorities forced them to move.
Overall, the case study shows the Vietnamese authorities deploying different instruments to implement their will, engaging in little meaningful dialogue with local people. Moreover, when locals sought alternative income from acacia plantations, the authorities cited environmental concerns to justify confiscating their forest holdings.

Abstrak: Toleransi menjadi masalah serius yang mengancam kerukunan bangsa di tengah arus modernisasi media. Mahasantri selaku generasi muda berpotensi untuk terpapar intoleransi dan paham ekstremisme. Dalam hal ini, kecakapan literasi dan kecakapan bermedia sangat dibutuhkan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan teknik observasi. Dalam penelitian ini, mahasantri Mabna Syarifah Fatimah ditempatkan sebagai subjek sekaligus objek utama dalam penelitian. Beberapa penelitian sejenis sudah pernah dilakukan, di antaranya oleh Yunianto, T. d. tahun 2022 dan Bono Setyo, W. A. tahun 2020 tentang pentingnya kecakapan literasi digital untuk menangkal kasus intoleransi. Persamaan penelitian-penelitian sebelumnya dengan penelitian yang diteliti yaitu sama-sama mengkorelasikan keberadaan sosial media dan tantangannya di ruang digital dalam menangkal intoleransi melalui literasi digital. Namun beberapa penelitian sejenis belum banyak yang membahas mengenai bagaimana upaya menangkal isu intoleransi di kalangan mahasantri yang dipadukan dengan solusi literasi berdasarkan Al-Qur’an. Penelitian ini berusaha untuk mengeksplorasi kandungan ayat-ayat Al-Qur’an yang disesuaikan dengan konteks kekinian untuk mengentas kasus intoleransi di kalangan mahasantri. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa isu intoleransi menjadi masalah besar di ranah digital. Oleh sebab itu, peneliti menghadirkan mahasantri sebagai solusi terdepan dalam menangkal intoleransi. Untuk mengimplemntasikan solusi tersebut, mahasantri perlu dibekali dengan kemampuan literasi melalui beberapa kegiatan literasi. Abstract: Tolerance is a serious problem that threatens national harmony in the midst of modernization of the media. Mahasantri as the younger generation have the potential to be exposed to intolerance and extremism. In this case, literacy guides and media guides are needed. This study uses a qualitative approach with observation techniques. In this study, Mabna Syarifah Fatimah's female students were placed as both the subject and the main object of the study. This research seeks to explore the content of the verses of the Qur'an that are adapted to the current context to alleviate cases of intolerance among female students. The results of this study indicate that the issue of intolerance is a big problem in the digital realm. Therefore, presenting female students as a leading solution in counteracting intolerance. To implement this solution, students need to be equipped with literacy skills through several literacy activities.
