Technical Note—A Near-Optimal Algorithm for Real-Time Order Acceptance: An Application in Postacute Healthcare Services
Authors: Qu Zihao , Dawande Milind , Janakiraman Ganesh 
Published: May 2022

A Near-Optimal Patient Admission Policy in Postacute Care Motivated by applications in the postacute healthcare industry, in “Technical Note—A Near-Optimal Algorithm for Real-Time Order Acceptance: An Application in Postacute Healthcare Services,” Qu, Dawande, and Janakiraman study an infinite-horizon, stochastic optimization problem with a set of long-term capacity investment decisions and a sequence of real-time order acceptance/rejection decisions. To maximize the long-run average expected profit per period, the firm accepts/rejects stochastically arriving referrals in real time. Referrals differ in the revenue they offer to the firm, the resource requirements and the frequency of usage of the resources, and the stochastic duration of the episode. The authors develop a simple policy, derive a worst case guarantee on its optimality gap, and show that the policy is asymptotically optimal. They also illustrate an impressive numerical performance of the policy using public healthcare data.
Third stage of labour management approaches and postpartum haemorrhage in midwife-led units
Authors: Baker Karen , Stephenson John 
Published: May 2022

Background National and international guidelines advise active management of the third stage of labour. Studies conducted in obstetric-led units reveal evidence for reductions in primary postpartum haemorrhage with active management compared to expectant management. The association in midwife-led units for low-risk women is relatively untested in the UK. Aims To examine the relationship between third stage of labour management approaches, and incidence of postpartum haemorrhage and severe postpartum haemorrhage in women birthing in midwife-led units. Methods Anonymised data were collected in 2015–2016 from women birthing in England. Adjusted logistic regression was used to assess the effect of management approach on the outcomes of postpartum haemorrhage and severe postpartum haemorrhage, controlling for variables additionally identified as risk factors for postpartum haemorrhage. Results Of the 765 women intending to receive active management and the 508 intending to receive expectant management, 9.54% and 14.0% experienced postpartum haemorrhage respectively (P=0.015). Severe postpartum haemorrhage was experienced by 14 (1.83%) women intending to receive active management and 16 (3.66%) intending to receive expectant management (P=0.134). Conclusions Postpartum haemorrhage, but not severe postpartum haemorrhage, was statistically significantly higher in women birthing in midwife-led units intending to receive expectant management.

Objective:This study aimed to evaluate the management of an unselected cohort of patients with wounds at risk of or with clinical signs of local infection, treated with two antimicrobial contact layers impregnated with silver (TLC-Ag healing matrix), under real-life conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic.Method:A large, prospective, multicentre, observational study with two TLC-Ag dressings (UrgoTul Ag/Silver and UrgoTul Ag Lite Border, Laboratoires Urgo, France) was conducted in Germany between May 2020 and May 2021. The main outcomes included a description of the treated patients and their wound management, the changes in wound infection and wound healing outcomes over a maximum period of four weeks of treatment, as well as the overall clinical assessment of the performance, local tolerance and acceptability of dressings.Results:A total of 728 patients with wounds of various aetiologies and wound infection status were treated with the evaluated dressings in 39 centres for a mean duration of 26±19 days, with an intermediate visit conducted in 712 (97.8%) patients after a mean period of 12±9 days. At the initial visit, it was established that the majority of patients (60.4%) had a wound infection, while the remaining cohort presented first clinical signs of a local wound infection (25.1%) or were at risk of wound infection (13.2%) (unclear status in 1.2%). Throughout the study period, all the parameters of wound infection continuously decreased, resulting at the final visit in a reduction by 78.9% of the prevalence of local wound infections and by 72.0% of the clinical signs of wound infection, the most rapidly diminished clinical sign being wound deterioration. Concurrently, in terms of the healing process, 92.1% of the wounds healed or improved, 3.2% remained unchanged and 1.7% worsened (data missing for 3.0%), and an improvement of the periwound skin was reported in 65.7% of the patients. Overall, the two dressings were ‘very well accepted’ by the majority of patients, with no uncomfortable feeling at wearing and no pain at dressing removal, and were assessed by the physicians as ‘very useful’ in the majority of the cases with a ‘very good’ efficacy in terms of antimicrobial activity and promotion of the wound healing process. Similar results were reported regardless of the wound type treated or of the TLC-Ag dressing evaluated.Conclusion:These results are consistent with previous clinical evidence on TLC-Ag dressings. They support the good efficacy, good tolerability and usefulness of these antimicrobial dressings in the management of patients with wounds at risk or with clinical signs of local infection, in association with appropriate standard of care.

Authors: Nasrallah Fady , Brewer Christopher F , Arkoulis Nikolaos , Mabvuure Nigel T 
Published: May 2022

Objective: Suppurative chondritis is a potentially devastating complication of burns to the ear. The infection and inflammation can liquify cartilage, leading to significant aesthetic deformities which are difficult to treat. This article reviews published measures for preventing post-burn chondritis. Method: A comprehensive search of all available literature up to September 2020 was performed, according to PRISMA guidelines, for studies assessing preventive measures for post-burn chondritis. Randomised controlled trials (RCT), cohort studies, case–control studies, case reports and series were eligible for inclusion Results: A total of 10 studies, including one RCT and nine retrospective observational analyses, were included, incorporating 1369 patients with burns to the ear. The most common interventions were pressure avoidance (70%), daily cleansing (60%), topical mafenide acetate (60%) and targeted debridement (30%). Packages of measures which included pressure avoidance were the most effective, all of which achieved a chondritis incidence of <6%. Conclusion: Low-level but strong published evidence suggests that important treatment principles include prevention by pressure relief, targeted debridement, prophylactic local antibiotics, local antisepsis and the avoidance of desiccation.

Published: May 2022

Objective: The aim of the study was to phenotypically investigate the expression of the enzyme Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) in a Proteus mirabilis sample resistant to carbapenems, isolated from the wound of a patient with a venous leg ulcer (VLU) treated at an outpatient referral service. Method: This was a case study conducted with a patient who had a VLU on the lower left limb. Samples were taken for the examination of microbiological material from the patient's wound, using an aseptic technique. The colonies extracted were submitted to Gram staining and biochemical tests to identify the strain. In addition, an antimicrobial susceptibility test, E-test and a modified Hodge test were performed. Results: The identified microorganism was Proteus mirabilis, which showed resistance to cefuroxime and the carbapenems imipenem and meropenem. As well as the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 3.0μg/ml for imipenem, demonstrating resistance, there was no KPC production by the tested isolate, which presented a negative modified Hodge test. Conclusion: The results highlight the importance of microbiological surveillance, aimed at reducing morbidity and mortality rates associated with infection by multiresistant bacteria.

HIGHLIGHTSA load and bale density monitoring and control system for a wheeled self-propelled square baler is proposed.A hydraulic circuit and weighing device are designed, and a bale density control model is established on this basis.The relationships among the main parameters affecting the operation of the control system are determined.The control system improved the automation and reliability of the square baler machine as a low-cost solution.Abstract. This study investigated baler load monitoring and automatic adjustment of bale density. A load monitoring and bale density adjustment system was developed for a wheeled self-propelled square baler. To realize the proposed system, a hydraulic circuit and a weighing device were designed, a bale density control program was developed, and a bale density control model was established. Bench tests were performed to obtain the relationships among the feed quantity of the baler, the load of the hydraulic cylinder on the compression chamber sidewall, the bale density, the piston’s compression force, the bale weight, and the degree of bale compression. The relationships among the operating parameters provided basic data for baler load monitoring and intelligent control of bale density. Field tests showed that when the bale density threshold was set at 5 kg m-3 and the allowable deviation was 2 kg m-3, the coarse adjustment time was less than 5 s, and the adjustment deviation of the bale density was within 5% as a whole, while most of the deviations were within 3%. The results demonstrate that the proposed control system can realize automatic adjustment of bale density according to user requirements within the allowable range. In addition, the proposed system can ensure stable operation and provide a reference for optimization and intelligent control of balers.

Human brucellosis: Widespread information deficiency hinders an understanding of global disease frequency
Authors: Laine Christopher G. , Scott Harvey M. , Arenas-Gamboa Angela M. 
Published: May 2022

Background
For decades, human brucellosis has been recognized worldwide as a significant cause of morbidity, yet the annual incidence of this disease remains unknown. We analyzed this frequency, using international reports (2005–2019), identifying information gaps, and distinguishing a possible path forward.

Methodology/Principal findings
A novel approach to estimating the incidence of this disease was explored. We utilized annual health data extracted from the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE)–World Animal Health Information System (WAHIS) database, assessing the dataset completeness and representativeness of the data for the world population. Additionally, we assessed the reported country level human brucellosis case counts and the factors that influenced the observed changes over time. Our analysis revealed incomplete and unrepresentative information, preventing the estimation of annual human brucellosis case incidence at the global level. In the OIE-WAHIS database, only 48.4% of the required reports have been submitted as of 2019, with approximately 47.3% of the world population represented. Additionally, geographic regions were disproportionate in completeness, representativeness, and actual reported case counts. Africa and Asia constituted the majority of reported cases, while simultaneously submitting the lowest percentage of reports as well as covering the lowest percentage of their populations within those reports, when compared to the rest of the world.

Conclusions/Significance
The global annual frequency of human brucellosis cases remains elusive. Furthermore, there exists great heterogeneity in diagnostic, surveillance, and reporting systems worldwide, calling into question the validity of available information. This study reveals that the Neglected Zoonotic Disease priority status for brucellosis should be restored.

Published: May 2022

This experiment was conducted to determine growth performance and cost benefit of including cooked Ipomoea asarifolia leaf meal (CIALM) in broiler diets. Eight diets were compounded by including Ipomoea asarifolia leaf meal at 0, 2.5, 5 and 7.5% to form T1, T2, T3 and T4 respectively of both starter and finisher diets. One hundred and twenty broiler birds were used in a Complete Randomized Design experiment that lasted for eight weeks.Â Daily feed intake and weekly weight gain were measured. Average daily feed intake, average daily weight gain, total feed consumed, feed conversion ratio and cost benefit parameters were calculated. In starter phase results showed that there were significant differences (P0.05) between treatment means in all the parameters except initial weight of the birds. There were significant differences (p0.05) between treatment means in all the parameters measured during the finisher phase including the cost analysis parameters except that feed cost decreasing with increasing levels of CIALM and net profit decreased from T1 to T4 because of the decrease in total weight gain from T1 to T4. Final weight gain, total weight gain, average daily feed intake, total feed intake, average daily weight gain, feed conversion ratio, feed cost and feed cost per kg weight gain all decreased with increasing levels of CIALM. Results control diet performed better than other treatment diets which suggest that lower levels of inclusion that is less than 2.5% may give positive results.
How Selection of a Target Feature Impacts Corrective Feedback: Finding Answers Through Meta-Analysis of Chinese EFL Learners
Authors: Schenck Andrew 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
Rather than looking at variables like grammatical feature type, proficiency, and L1 as separate, we must start to view them as interrelated and codependent. In this way, educators may finally learn how to maximize the effect of corrective feedback (CF). A meta-analysis of 13 studies was conducted to examine four styles of CF (implicit prompt, implicit reformulation, explicit prompt, and explicit reformulation) along with the following variables: grammatical feature type, L1 similarity (with Mandarin Chinese), and proficiency level. Results suggest that effect size is highly dependent upon the grammatical feature targeted. Explicit feedback appears to have a scaffolding effect for more semantically or syntactically complex grammatical features. Implicit reformulations (recasts) also provide scaffolding, yielding larger effect sizes than implicit prompts when used with L1 dissimilar features that are more semantically or syntactically complex.

Authors: Fernández-Álvarez Óscar , Li Qiuyang , Chen Chen 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
In recent years there has been a proliferation of studies demonstrating the value of teaching abroad as much for its benefits for the training and professional development of these teachers, as for its impact and beneficial effects on students. This article uses transformative learning as a theoretical framework to interpret the achievements associated with the experience of teaching abroad, and to identify and analyze different motivational factors, adjustments, changes, challenges, and perspectives of Chinese teachers linked to a Confucius Institute in Spain, through a qualitative analysis of narratives elicited through in-depth interviews and focus groups. It highlights the role and potential of the transnational, intercultural experience of these teachers as authentic actors in the part played by the Confucius Institutes in language teaching and the promotion of Chinese culture, indicating many issues including language difficulties, professional adjustment, ideas about education, beliefs of teachers and the management of the program.
Multi-objective optimal capacity allocation of integrated energy system with co-evolution mechanism
Authors: Liu Xiaoou 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
With the deepening of multi-energy flow coupling and the diversification of energy utilization demand, integrated energy system (IES) puts forward higher requirements for the economy and reliability of capacity allocation scheme. However, there is a complex relationship between economy and reliability, which makes it difficult for them to achieve coordinated optimization. Therefore, an economic and reliability optimal capacity allocation method of IES based on improved co-evolution algorithm is proposed. Firstly, the timing scenario reduction method of “wind power-electrical load” based on ordered clustering algorithm and K-means clustering algorithm is proposed. Aiming at minimizing the expected annual cost of construction investment, operation and maintenance, carbon emission and energy purchase cost, and constrained by equipment operation and energy flow balance, a multi-scenario economic operation model is constructed. Considering the dissatisfaction degree of comprehensive energy consumption, the energy supply reliability evaluation model based on Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method is established. On this basis, the IES multi-objective optimal capacity allocation model is established. Further, based on the orthogonal test method, the influence factors of decision variables on IES economy and reliability are calculated, and the evolution subpopulation of economy and reliability is established, and then the optimization model’s solution method based on improved co-evolution algorithm is proposed. Finally, an example simulation analysis is carried out combined with the actual data of a certain region. The simulation results show that the proposed model can cooperatively improve the economy and reliability of IES capacity allocation scheme, and provide a reference for the optimal capacity allocation of equipment in IES.
