CONVERSAS SOBRE FEMINILIDADES NA PANDEMIA: PRÁTICAS PEDAGÓGICAS ANTISSEXISTAS A PARTIR DA SÉRIE “CONFISSÕES DE ADOLESCENTE”
Authors: Amaro Ivan , Da Silva Lyzia Toscano , Matos Vanessa Soares 
Published: May 2022

A pandemia lançou o mundo num cenário caótico e imprevisível provocando mudanças inimagináveis. A educação teve um impacto considerável, pois o isolamento social, uma das medidas necessárias para conter o novo corona vírus, vem se estendendo no país desde março de 2020. Neste contexto, as aulas presenciais foram suspensas e as redes buscaram alternativas para darem continuidade à formação em formato remoto. Este artigo traduz análises realizadas sobre as percepções das diversas feminilidades na escola, a partir de um trabalho pedagógico interdisciplinar desenvolvido por duas professoras, uma de Língua Portuguesa e outra de Ciências, em turmas do 8º ano do ensino fundamental de uma escola pública do Município do Rio de Janeiro, no período da pandemia. O objetivo é investigar as construções sociodiscursivas de alunos e alunas sobre os significados de “ser mulher” hoje. Adotando a conversa como procedimento metodológico de uma pesquisa qualitativa, tivemos, como mote, a série “Confissões de Adolescente” (1994), obra que foi a disparadora de debates, via Whatsapp, o que nos levou à netnografia, como metodologia secundária. O objetivo era acessar os discursos de alunos e alunas no sentido de indagar a noção essencializada do “ser mulher”, questioná-la e (re) significar as noções de feminilidades e, mesmo, de masculinidades, entendendo que gênero é um conceito relacional. Os achados inscrevem-se, também, na visibilidade de práticas pedagógicas insurgentes no cotidiano escolar, indicando que adolescentes (re)significam experiências e repensam os processos de constituição de subjetividades que constroem masculinidades e feminilidades, contribuindo, assim, para uma formação antissexista e antimachista.

Background
Reliable and field-applicable diagnosis of schistosome infections in non-human animals is important for surveillance, control, and verification of interruption of human schistosomiasis transmission. This study aimed to summarize uses of available diagnostic techniques through a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Methodology and principal findings
We systematically searched the literature and reports comparing two or more diagnostic tests in non-human animals for schistosome infection. Out of 4,909 articles and reports screened, 19 met our inclusion criteria, four of which were considered in the meta-analysis. A total of 14 techniques (parasitologic, immunologic, and molecular) and nine types of non-human animals were involved in the studies. Notably, four studies compared parasitologic tests (miracidium hatching test (MHT), Kato-Katz (KK), the Danish Bilharziasis Laboratory technique (DBL), and formalin-ethyl acetate sedimentation-digestion (FEA-SD)) with quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), and sensitivity estimates (using qPCR as the reference) were extracted and included in the meta-analyses, showing significant heterogeneity across studies and animal hosts. The pooled estimate of sensitivity was 0.21 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.03–0.48) with FEA-SD showing highest sensitivity (0.89, 95% CI: 0.65–1.00).

Conclusions/significance
Our findings suggest that the parasitologic technique FEA-SD and the molecular technique qPCR are the most promising techniques for schistosome diagnosis in non-human animal hosts. Future studies are needed for validation and standardization of the techniques for real-world field applications.
Users’ satisfaction levels about mHealth applications in post-Covid-19 times in Saudi Arabia
Authors: Alanzi Turki M. 
Published: May 2022

Purpose
This study aims to investigate the users’ satisfaction levels about mHealth applications and their intentions to use them in future (in post-Covid-19 times) in Saudi Arabia.

Methods
A cross-sectional survey design was adopted in this study. The mHealth App Usability Questionnaire (MAUQ)22 was used in this study. An online version of the survey was created using Google Surveys, and a link for the survey was generated. As the objective of this study is to assess the users’ satisfaction levels about mHealth applications and their intentions to use them in future (in post-Covid-19 times) in Saudi Arabia, all individuals who used or using mHealth applications will be included in this study. At the end of the survey time period, 318 responses were received.

Results
Items including ’easy to learn using the app’ (mean rating = 3.9), ’easy to find information on the application’(mean rating = 3.9), ’interface of the app’ (mean rating = 3.8) were rated to be highly effective by the participants.). However, ability to recover from mistakes while using the applications (mean rating = 2.9), inconsistency in navigation (mean rating = 2.9), and lack of all necessary functions (mean rating = 2.3) were few issues identified. No statistically significant difference of opinions was observed in relation to all sub-scales of usability factor.

Conclusion
Although the satisfaction levels are good with respect to mHealth applications, the sudden rise in the mHealth users can be partly linked to the several psychological issues such as anxiety and depression among people and also because of restricted access during the pandemic.
Identifying rates and risk factors for medication errors during hospitalization in the Australian Parkinson’s disease population: A 3-year, multi-center study
Authors: Bakker Michael , Johnson Michaela E. , Corre Lauren , Mill Deanna N. , Li Xingzhuo , Woodman Richard J. , Johnson Jacinta L. 
Published: May 2022

Background
Admission to hospital introduces risks for people with Parkinson’s disease in maintaining continuity of their highly individualized medication regimens, which increases their risk of medication errors. This is of particular concern as omitted medications and irregular dosing can cause an immediate increase in an individual’s symptoms as well as other adverse outcomes such as swallowing difficulties, aspiration pneumonia, frozen gait and even potentially fatal neuroleptic malignant type syndrome.

Objective
To determine the occurrence and identify factors that contribute to Parkinson’s medication errors in Australian hospitals.

Methods
A retrospective discharge diagnosis code search identified all admissions for people with Parkinson’s disease to three tertiary metropolitan hospitals in South Australia, Australia over a 3-year period. Of the 405 case notes reviewed 351 admissions met our inclusion criteria.

Results
Medication prescribing (30.5%) and administration (85%) errors during admission were extremely common, with the most frequent errors related to administration of levodopa preparations (83%). A higher levodopa equivalent dosage, patients with a modified swallowing status or nil by mouth order during admission, and patients who did not have a pharmacist led medication history within 24 hours of admission had significantly higher rates of medication errors.

Conclusions
This study identified 3 major independent factors that increased the risk of errors during medication management for people with Parkinson’s disease during hospitalization. Thus, targeting these areas for preventative interventions have the greatest chance of producing a clinically meaningful impact on the number of hospital medication errors occurring in the Parkinson’s population.

Published: May 2022

Aim
The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between breastfeeding and postpartum maternal weight change.

Method
This study used data from the Japan Environment and Children’s Study (JECS), an ongoing nationwide birth cohort study. Participants were categorized into two groups: full breastfeeding (FB) and non-full breastfeeding (NFB) groups. Postpartum weight changes between the FB (n = 26,340) and NFB (n = 38,129) groups were compared.

Results
At 6 months postpartum, mean weight retention was significantly lower in the FB group than in the NFB group (0.2 vs 0.8 kg, respectively, p<0.001). Weight retention differed by pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI), with postpartum weights of overweight (pre-pregnancy BMI 25.0–29.9) and obese (pre-pregnancy BMI ≥30.0) participants being lower than pre-pregnancy weight; this trend was more pronounced in the FB group than in the NFB group (overweight: −2.2 vs −0.7 kg, respectively; obese: −4.8 vs −3.4 kg, respectively). Factors affecting weight retention at 6 months postpartum were weight gain during pregnancy (β = 0.43; p<0.001), pre-pregnancy BMI (β = −0.147; p<0.001) and feeding method. FB resulted in lower weight retention than NFB (β = −0.107; p<0.001).

Conclusion
Breastfeeding reduced maternal weight retention, which was greater in mothers who were obese before pregnancy. For obese women, active breastfeeding may improve their health.
The potential epidemiologic, clinical, and economic impact of requiring schools to offer Physical Education (PE) classes in Mexico City

Published: May 2022

Background
Many schools have been cutting physical education (PE) classes due to budget constraints, which raises the question of whether policymakers should require schools to offer PE classes. Evidence suggests that PE classes can help address rising physical inactivity and obesity prevalence. However, it would be helpful to determine if requiring PE is cost-effective.

Methods
We developed an agent-based model of youth in Mexico City and the impact of all schools offering PE classes on changes in weight, weight-associated health conditions and the corresponding direct and indirect costs over their lifetime.

Results
If schools offer PE without meeting guidelines and instead followed currently observed class length and time active during class, overweight and obesity prevalence decreased by 1.3% (95% CI: 1.0%-1.6%) and was cost-effective from the third-party payer and societal perspectives ($5,058 per disability-adjusted life year [DALY] averted and $5,786/DALY averted, respectively, assuming PE cost $50.3 million). When all schools offered PE classes meeting international guidelines for PE classes, overweight and obesity prevalence decreased by 3.9% (95% CI: 3.7%-4.3%) in the cohort at the end of five years compared to no PE. Long-term, this averted 3,183 and 1,081 obesity-related health conditions and deaths, respectively and averted ≥$31.5 million in direct medical costs and ≥$39.7 million in societal costs, assuming PE classes cost ≤$50.3 million over the five-year period. PE classes could cost up to $185.5 million and $89.9 million over the course of five years and still remain cost-effective and cost saving respectively, from the societal perspective.

Conclusion
Requiring PE in all schools could be cost-effective when PE class costs, on average, up to $10,340 per school annually. Further, the amount of time students are active during class is a driver of PE classes’ value (e.g., it is cost saving when PE classes meet international guidelines) suggesting the need for specific recommendations.

Published: May 2022

Background
Although Nigeria has made some progress in malaria control, there are variations across States. We investigated the factors associated with utilisation of long-lasting insecticide-treated net (LLIN) and parasitaemia among under-five children in 13 States with high malaria burden.

Method
Data from the 2015 Nigeria Malaria Indicator Survey and 2018 Demographic and Health Survey were obtained and analysed. The 2015 and 2018 data were compared to identify States with increase or reduction in parasitaemia. Analysis was done for all the 13 study States; four States with increased parasitaemia and nine States with reduction. Random-effects logit models were fitted to identify independent predictors of LLIN utilisation and parasitaemia.

Results
LLIN was used by 53.4% of 2844 children, while parasitaemia prevalence was 26.4% in 2018. Grandchildren (AOR = 5.35, CI: 1.09–26.19) were more likely to use LLIN while other relatives (AOR = 0.33, CI: 0.11–0.94) were less likely compared to children of household-heads. LLIN use was more common in children whose mother opined that only weak children could die from malaria (AOR = 1.83, CI: 1.10–3.10). Children whose mothers obtained net from antenatal or immunisation clinics (AOR = 5.30, CI: 2.32–12.14) and campaigns (AOR = 1.77, CI: 1.03–3.04) were also more likely to use LLIN. In contrast, LLIN utilisation was less likely among children in female-headed households (AOR = 0.51, CI: 0.27–0.99) and those in poor-quality houses (AOR = 0.25, CI: 0.09–0.72).
Children aged 24–59 months compared to 0–11 months (AOR = 1.78, CI: 1.28–2.48), those in whom fever was reported (AOR = 1.31, CI: 1.06–1.63) and children of uneducated women (AOR = 1.89, CI: 1.32–2.70) were more likely to have parasitaemia. The likelihood of parasitaemia was higher among children from poor households compared to the rich (AOR = 2.06, CI: 1.24–3.42). The odds of parasitaemia were 98% higher among rural children (AOR = 1.98, CI: 1.37–2.87).

Conclusion
The key drivers of LLIN utilisation were source of net and socioeconomic characteristics. The latter was also a key factor associated with parasitaemia. These should be targeted as part of integrated malaria elimination efforts.
Sex differences in post-stroke cognitive decline: A population-based longitudinal study of nationally representative data
Authors: Bako Abdulaziz T. , Potter Thomas , Tannous Jonika , Pan Alan P. , Johnson Carnayla , Baig Eman , Downer Brian , Vahidy Farhaan S. 
Published: May 2022

Background
Sex differences in post-stroke cognitive decline have not been systematically evaluated in a nationally representative cohort. We use a quasi-experimental design to investigate sex differences in rate of post-stroke cognitive decline.

Methods
Utilizing the event study design, we use the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) data (1996–2016) to evaluate the differences (percentage points [95% Confidence interval]) in the rate of change in cognitive function, measured using the modified version of the Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status (TICS-m) score, before and after incident stroke, and among patients with and without incident stroke. We estimated this event study model for the overall study population and separately fit the same model for male and female participants.

Results
Of 25,872 HRS participants included in our study, 14,459 (55.9%) were females with an overall mean age (SD) of 61.2 (9.3) years. Overall, 2,911 (11.3%) participants reported experiencing incident stroke. Participants with incident stroke (vs. no stroke) had lower baseline TICS-m score (15.6 vs. 16.1). Among participants with incident stroke, the mean pre-stroke TICS-m score was higher than the mean post-stroke TICS-m score (14.9 vs. 12.7). Event study revealed a significant short-term acceleration of cognitive decline for the overall population (4.2 [1.7–6.6] percentage points, p value = 0.001) and among female participants (5.0 [1.7–8.3] percentage points, p value = 0.003). We, however, found no evidence of long-term acceleration of cognitive decline after stroke. Moreover, among males, incident stroke was not associated with significant changes in rate of post-stroke cognitive decline.

Conclusion
Females, in contrast to males, experience post-stroke cognitive deficits, particularly during early post-stroke period. Identifying the sex-specific stroke characteristics contributing to differences in post stroke cognitive decline may inform future strategies for reducing the burden of post-stroke cognitive impairment and dementia.

Authors: Yashar David , Govindarajan Ameish , Samara Yazeed , Lee Jennifer 
Published: May 2022

ABSTRACT
Gastric leiomyosarcoma is a rare entity with only a handful of cases reported in the literature. Although this entity has been known to metastasize, there are currently no reported cases of metastatic leiomyosarcoma to the bilateral adrenal glands. We report a case of a 58-year-old woman with primary gastric leiomyosarcoma with bilateral metastasis to the adrenal gland. This case illustrates a presentation of gastric leiomyosarcoma with bilateral adrenal involvement, the challenges in its diagnosis, treatment, as well as a rare complication of primary adrenal insufficiency and adrenal crisis.
Effect of pigments on bond strength between coloured concrete and steel reinforcement
Authors: Assaad Joseph J. , Mata Matthew , Saade Jad 
Published: May 2022

The effect of pigments on mechanical properties of coloured concrete intended for structural applications, including the bond stress-slip behaviour to embedded steel bars, is not well understood. Series of concrete mixtures containing different types and oncentrations of iron oxide (red and grey colour), carbon black, and titanium dioxide (TiO2) pigments are investigated in this study. Regardless of the colour, mixtures incorporating increased pigment additions exhibited higher compressive and splitting tensile strengths. This was attributed to the micro-filler effect that enhances the packing density of the cementitious matrix and leads to a denser microstructure. Also, the bond to steel bars increased with the pigment additions, revealing their beneficial role for improving the development of bond stresses in reinforced concrete members. The highest increase in bond strength was recorded for mixtures containing TiO2, which was ascribed to formation of nucleus sites that promote hydration reactions and strengthen the interfacial concrete-steel transition zone. The experimental data were compared to design bond strengths proposed by ACI 318-19, European Code EC2, and CEB-FIP Model Code.
Caracterización de la velocidad de caminata. Caso de estudio puente peatonal
Authors: Villamarín Monroy Jonatan Jair , Guío Burgos Fredy Alberto , Dueñas Ruiz Domingo Ernesto 
Published: May 2022

Contexto: La variable macroscópica más importante del flujo peatonal es la velocidad de caminata, ya que permite analizar el comportamiento y las condiciones en que está operando una infraestructura. En el presente estudio se determinó si existe una diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre velocidades medias temporales para tres tipos de infraestructuras y dos tipologías de usuarios.
Metodología: Se tomaron los tiempos que duraba un peatón en recorrer una distancia preestablecida en cada una de las tres infraestructuras contempladas: escaleras y plataforma de un puente peatonal, y una acera con pendiente del 0 %, localizadas en la ciudad de Tunja, Colombia, clasificando a los usuarios según sexo y sentido de circulación.
Resultados: La velocidad media temporal en las escaleras, para las mujeres, es de 0,81 m/s en ascenso y de 0,72 m/s en descenso. En cuanto a los hombres, la velocidad media temporal fue de 0,81 m/s en los dos sentidos de circulación. En relación con la plataforma y la acera, se obtuvo que la velocidad media temporal de las mujeres es inferior a la de los hombres.
Conclusiones: En el sentido de circulación ascenso se determinó que no hay una diferencia estadísticamente significativa, caso contrario a lo establecido para el sentido de circulación en descenso. Confrontando la velocidad media temporal determinada para las dos secciones del puente peatonal, con la velocidad media temporal de la acera, se estableció que hay una diferencia estadísticamente significativa, razón por la cual, es necesario caracterizar los comportamientos por separado en cada sección al momento de diseñar o de intervenir una infraestructura peatonal.

Published: May 2022

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to develop stable microsatellite markers and evaluate the genetic background of cultivated Sargassum fusiforme. Based on the transcriptome data obtained by high-throughput sequencing, eleven polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed using four S. fusiforme populations from China. One cultivated population was from Dongtou (DT) and three wild populations were from Muye Island (MY), Pingyu Island (PY) and Nanji Island (NJ). The cultivated S. fusiforme had the highest genetic diversity, with 90.91% polymorphic loci and Shannon’s information index (I) of 0.606, which were much higher than those of the wild populations (I = 0.425). The four populations were divided into two groups through a structure analysis. DT, PY and NJ were clustered into a group, and MY was an almost completely separate group. Both the structure and principal coordinates analysis showed that DT and PY had the lowest genetic differentiation, suggesting that the parents of the breeding population in Dongtou partly come from Pingyu Island. The observed heterozygosity of NJ was much higher than expected, indicating that the NJ wild resource was greatly affected by the environment. These eleven microsatellite markers could provide additional markers for germplasm resource evaluations and facilitate genetic analyses of the S. fusiforme population.
On the 𝜎-nilpotent hypercenter of finite groups
Authors: Murashka Viachaslau I. , Vasil’ev Alexander F. 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
Let 𝜎 be a partition of the set of all primes, and let 𝔉 denote a hereditary formation.
We describe all formations 𝔉 for which the 𝔉-hypercenter and the intersection of weak 𝐾-𝔉-subnormalizers of all Sylow subgroups coincide in every finite group.
In particular, the formation of all 𝜎-nilpotent groups has this property.
With the help of our results, we solve a particular case of Shemetkov’s problem about the intersection of 𝔉-maximal subgroups and the 𝔉-hypercenter.
As a corollary, we obtain Hall’s classical result about the hypercenter.
We prove that the non-𝜎-nilpotent graph of a group is connected and its diameter is at most 3.
