Background
Vector surveillance is an essential public health tool to aid in the prediction and prevention of mosquito borne diseases. This study compared spatial and temporal trends of vector surveillance indices for Aedes vectors in the southern Philippines, and assessed potential links between vector indices and climate factors.

Methods
We analysed routinely collected larval and pupal surveillance data from residential areas of 14 cities and 51 municipalities during 2013–2018 (House, Container, Breteau and Pupal Indices), and used linear regression to explore potential relationships between vector indices and climate variables (minimum temperature, maximum temperature and precipitation).

Results
We found substantial spatial and temporal variation in monthly Aedes vector indices between cities during the study period, and no seasonal trend apparent. The House (HI), Container (CI) and Breteau (BI) Indices remained at comparable levels across most surveys (mean HI = 15, mean CI = 16, mean BI = 24), while the Pupal Productivity Index (PPI) was relatively lower in most months (usually below 5) except for two main peak periods (mean = 49 overall). A small proportion of locations recorded high values across all entomological indices in multiple surveys. Each of the vector indices were significantly correlated with one or more climate variables when matched to data from the same month or the previous 1 or 2 months, although the effect sizes were small. Significant associations were identified between minimum temperature and HI, CI and BI in the same month (R2 = 0.038, p = 0.007; R2 = 0.029, p = 0.018; and R2 = 0.034, p = 0.011, respectively), maximum temperature and PPI with a 2-month lag (R2 = 0.031, p = 0.032), and precipitation and HI in the same month (R2 = 0.023, p = 0.04).

Conclusions
Our findings indicated that larval and pupal surveillance indices were highly variable, were regularly above the threshold for triggering vector control responses, and that vector indices based on household surveys were weakly yet significantly correlated with city-level climate variables. We suggest that more detailed spatial and temporal analyses of entomological, climate, socio-environmental and Aedes-borne disease incidence data are necessary to ascertain the most effective use of entomological indices in guiding vector control responses, and reduction of human disease risk.

Published: June 2022

Introduction
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has made a serious public health threat worldwide. Recent evidence has indicated that COVID-19 patients in convalescence frequently experience insomnia, which reduces their quality of life and causes unknown risks. The positive effect of cognitive behavior on insomnia has been well addressed in previous studies. Given the high infectivity and epidemicity of COVID-19, Internet-delivered intervention may be safer than face-to-face treatment. However, whether Internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy can effectively improve the insomnia of COVID-19 patients in convalescence has not been completely determined yet. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis and systematic review to evaluate the effects of Internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy on insomnia in COVID-19 patients in convalescence, with the aim to confer some guidance for its clinical application.

Methods and analysis
This systematic review and meta-analysis has been registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO). Two researchers will retrieve the relevant literature on Internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia in convalescent patients with COVID-19 in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, Clinical Trials gov, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) from inception to 11th of December. In addition, we will review the relevant trials and references of the included literature and manually searched the grey literature. The two researchers will independently extracted data and information and evaluated the quality of the included literature. The Review Manager software (version 5.3) and Stata software (version 14.0) will be used for data analysis. The mean difference or the standardized mean difference of 95% CI will be used to calculate continuous variables to synthesize the data. In addition, I2 and Cochrane will be used for heterogeneity assessment.

Diagnostic tests for discrete functions defined on rings
Authors: Antyufeev Grigoriy V. 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
The paper is concerned with sources of faults associated with commutative principal ideal rings. Tables of faults of such sources are known to correspond to Cayley multiplication tables in rings, whose elements are replaced by the values of a Boolean function of these elements. For such rings, the concepts of a diagnostic test and the Shannon function for the length of a diagnostic test are introduced in a natural way. It is shown that if A is a principal ideal ring with only one prime ideal p ≠ A, and if pn
= 0 for some n ∈ ℕ, then, for this ring, the Shannon length function of a diagnostic test has the form L
diagn(A, n) = Θ(n). We also define an easily testable functions, i.e., a function with respect to which the order of growth of the length of a diagnostic test with respect to this function is equal to the logarithm of the number of pairwise distinct columns of the table of faults. A link between easily testable functions and column separation of tables of faults for two concrete sources of faults is established.
Major, trace and platinum-group element geochemistry of harzburgites and chromitites from Fuchuan, China, and its geological significance
Authors: Liu Ting , Wu Jun , Tan Qi , Bai Lijuan 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
The Fuchuan ophiolite, one of the oldest ophiolites in southern China, is located in the northeasternmost segment of the Jiangnan Orogen. It mainly consists of harzburgites, with minor dunites, pyroxenites and gabbro veins. To investigate the origin of the Fuchuan ophiolite and its related chromite ore deposit, bulk-rock major and minor element and platinum-group element (PGE) studies have been carried out. Major and trace element analyses show dual features of mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) and supra-subducted zone (SSZ) peridotites and high degrees of partial melting. The chondrite-normalized rare earth element (REE) patterns of the Fuchuan harzburgites are “U” shaped, reflecting the influence of light REE-enriched subducted melts or fluids. The Fuchuan chromitites originate from MORB-like melts and are enriched in IPGE and depleted in PPGE, which are basically consistent with high-Al chromitites worldwide, and the low PGE concentrations of chromitites reflect a lack of sulfur saturation of the parental melts during an early stage of their crystallization. Combining with the tectonic setting of the Jiangnan Orogen, we suggest that the Fuchuan peridotites and chromitites are believed to be formed in a back-arc spreading ridge between the Yangtze and Cathaysia blocks during 860–820 Ma.

ZIF-8 and ZIF-67 are the most investigated zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) materials that have aroused enormous scientific interests in numerous areas of application including electrochemistry, gas storage, separation, and sensors by reason of their fascinating structural properties. Recently, there is a rapidly growing demand for chemical gas sensors for the detection of various analytes in widespread applications including environmental pollution monitoring, clinical analysis, wastewater analysis, industrial applications, food quality, consumer products, and automobiles. In general, the key to the development of superior gas sensors is exploring innovative sensing materials. ZIF-X (8, 67) based nanostructures have demonstrated great potential as ideal sensing materials for high-performance sensing applications. In this review, the general properties and applications of ZIF-X (8, 67) including gas storage and gas adsorption are first summarized, and then the recent progress of ZIF-X (8, 67) based nanostructures for gas-sensing applications and the structure-property correlations are summarized and analyzed.
Connection between the existence of a priori estimate for a flux and the convergence of iterative methods for diffusion equation with highly varying coefficients
Authors: Kobelkov George M. , Schnack Eckart 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
An iterative method with the number of iterations independent of the coefficient jumps is proposed for the boundary value problem for a diffusion equation with highly varying coefficient. The method applies one solution of the Poisson equation at each step of iteration. In the present paper we extend the class of domains the iterative method is justified for.
Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Cement Grouted Bituminous Mixtures
Authors: Reddy Daka Sita Rami , Reddy Kusam Sudhakar 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Cement grouted bituminous (CGB) mix is a bituminous mix in which the air voids are partially or fully filled with a cementitious grout. The bituminous mixture used for preparing CGB mix usually has high air void content, in the range of 25 to 35 %, and has a cementitious grout penetrating the full depth of the CGB mix layer. The relatively nondeformable and moisture-resistant cementitious grout makes the mix more resistant to plastic deformation, and damage due to moisture, oil, and chemical damage compared with conventional dense bituminous mixes. Different combinations of grouted bituminous mixes were developed and evaluated in the past using different cementitious materials. Considering that CGB mix is a semiflexible material, characterizing the material has been a challenging task. Although different predictive models are available in literature for the estimation of the mechanical properties of conventional bituminous mixes, no such models are available for CGB mixes. Different investigations conducted for the evaluation of the mechanical properties such as indirect tensile strength, elastic modulus, and flexural strength of CGB mixes are presented in this paper. CGB mixtures prepared using four different aggregate gradations and four different binder contents were evaluated and the effect of aggregate gradation and binder content on the mechanical properties of the CGB mixes was examined. Predictive models were developed for estimation of the mechanical properties of CGB mixes. Correlations were also developed among different mechanical properties of CGB mixes. It is envisaged that this study will help in understanding the factors that affect the mechanical properties of CGB mixes in a holistic manner.
From a Lexical Verb to a Pragmatic Marker: The Case of the French falloir ‘have to/must’
Authors: Valiukienė Vita 
Published: June 2022

The paper seeks to present a semantico-functional analysis of the French verb falloir. The empirical data are obtained from a parallel corpus – the Corpus Parallèle de Textes Littéraires (CTLFR-LT), which is composed of French literary texts and their translations into Lithuanian. The paper uses quantitative, qualitative and comparative methods. It is based on the studies focusing on the polysemy of modal verbs (Chu 2010; Dendale 1994; Kronning 1988; Le Querler 2001; Rossari 2012) as well as on the development of discourse markers in language (Dostie 2004; Vold 2008).
The findings show that the verb falloir, while maintaining its core meaning of necessity, can express conjecture. When it is used in patterns together with verbs of saying (verba cogitandi and dicendi) and verbs of visual perception, falloir no longer functions as a marker of necessity and becomes a pragmatic marker of connection and argumentation.
The analysis of the translations of the French verb falloir into a typologically different language, Lithuanian, has also confirmed the entrenched use of the verb in question in the modal field of necessity and its rich functional potential in the French literary texts. The paper contributes to the existing contrastive studies between the French and Lithuanian languages, which are not numerous. The findings of the research could serve didactic purposes as well as add to the field of translation studies.

Published: June 2022

Background and Study Aim. As a result of the recognition of women's football in the world and the growing popularity of female footballers, the healthy eating of female footballers and their status towards exercise have also become a major research topic. The aim of this study is to investigate the attitudes of female soccer players towards healthy eating and their sports addiction. This study aimed to assess female footballers' attitudes toward healthy eating and exercise addiction based on age, league, position, active sports year, training status and number of exercises per week, and examine female football players' attitudes toward healthy eating and exercise addiction.
Material and Methods. The sample group of the study consists of 167 female soccer players who are active in the Turkish women's soccer leagues 2021-2022. The data collection instruments "Personal Information Form", "Healthy Eating Attitude Scale" and "Exercise Addiction Scale" were used for the study. Independent samples t-test was used for binary comparisons for scale scores and single factorial ANOVA and Tukey HSD test for multiple comparisons.
Results. When the study examined mean healthy eating attitude scores, there were no differences in educational status, age, and active sports year, while league, position, and weekly exercise were not found. Variables for exercise dependence were not identified.
Conclusions. Therefore, based on the data obtained, the sample group concluded that there was a small, nonsignificant relationship between attitudes and exercise dependence on healthy eating. It can be said that female footballers may have improved their performance and development as a result of increasing their awareness of healthy eating and adoption of female footballers that exercise addiction interacts with healthy eating.
Physical education teaching in Italian primary school: theoretical lines and operational proposals
Authors: Altavilla Gaetano , Ceruso Rosario , Esposito Giovanni , Raiola Gaetano , D'Elia Francesca 
Published: June 2022

Background and Study aim. For the new reform to be applied in the best possible way, it is a priority and useful to promote the development of knowledge on the organization and methods of teaching/learning in physical education in primary school. This study aims to search for a new didactic organizational model for physical education in primary school, starting from the theoretical lines, showing the contrasts of the significant aspects and the uniqueness of heuristic learning, with a consequent theoretical and argumentative elaboration of operational proposals.
Material and Methods. For this purpose, an accurate survey of the scientific literature has been analyzed, highlighting the critical issues that characterized the various proposals and attempt to implement physical activity and sports education courses in primary school over the years, up to the recent legislative innovation.
Results. The path of the definition of physical education in primary school was marked by stages that did not always enhance the educational and training dimension of the motor and sports experience, making the school discipline assume a marginal and optional role in the face of an extracurricular practice characterized by a widespread organization and more capable of intercepting and responding to the physical exercise and sport needs of society. This complex situation has only generated confusion without solving the problem of the absence of physical and sporting activity in the 5-10 age group, as required by the World Health Organization and the European Union, by adequately and uniquely qualified teachers. It is now useful to promote the development of knowledge on the didactic organization of the primary school, on the different teaching/learning methods in physical education, to contextualize the scope of the new legal provision to the current legal framework
Conclusions. The study highlights the value of a new approach in teacher training that aims to ensure the acquisition of key competence, according to the Recommendation of the European Parliament. This perspective can be easily realized by using a core curriculum uniformly applied at the national level.

Introduction. The widespread transition of higher education institutions to distance learning during the COVID-19 pandemic contributed to a decrease in education quality ratings. These trends, against the background of forecasts of an increase in the share of “distance learning” in the educational process, may initiate an increase in social tension, as well as a decrease in the level of trust in the activities of authorities that do not fully ensure the maintenance of the quality of education in the new conditions.Aim. The aim of the article was to assess the quality of education in the context of distance learning, to analyse the consequences of the transformation of the practices of interaction between a teacher and a student.Methodology and research methods. An all-Russian comprehensive sociological study was conducted using the following methods: questionnaires and focus groups. The first wave of the study was a survey of students of higher educational institutions of economic orientation from 14 regions of the Russian Federation (the sample population was 6,500 students). During the second wave, the following projects were implemented: 1) a survey of students of economic universities from 17 regions of the Russian Federation (sample population = 7600); 2) a survey of teachers of the Financial University (sample population = 520); 3) focus groups with students.Results and scientific novelty. The results obtained allow the authors to draw the following conclusions: the remote format of classes during the quarantine restrictions did not cause a sharp drop in the quality of education. Meanwhile, students’ preferences demonstrate a commitment to the traditional form of education. The factors that shape the readiness of students for distance education (course of study, budget/contract form, direction of training) are identified. The main problem is related to the lack of face-to-face communication, which is interpreted by the authors not so much as an objective limitation of the remote format of work, but as a subjective unavailability, low adaptation of pedagogical and communicative practices to remote online interaction. The study showed the strengthening of the role of informal network interactions that ensure the filling of the information vacuum in conditions of uncertainty, the formation of trustPractical significance. The research results and conclusions can be used for further theoretical and practical developments in this area, and can also become the basis for the preparation of methodological recommendations to reduce the negative consequences of the introduction of distance learning and improve the quality of education in the new environment.
