Published: January 2022

Water quality parameters can be indicators of pollution driving riverine, estuarine and coastal resource degradation. This study evaluated water quality in the downstream, estuarine and surrounding coastal waters of 8 major rivers around the western, southern and eastern coasts of South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. Data on physical and chemical parameters (salinity, temperature, total dissolved solids (TDS), conductivity, turbidity, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), nitrate and ammonium) were collected during January 2020. These data were interpolated and mapped using the Kriging tool in ArcGIS 9.3 and analysed using the STORET scale and principle component analysis (PCA). STORET values indicate moderate to heavy pollution, with the most severe pollution in Makassar City. Dominant defining parameters based on the PCA were nitrate, ammonium and DO at the Malili and Makassar sites, pH, temperature, TDS and salinity at the Palopo, Bulukumba and Pangkep sites, conductivity at the Takalar site and turbidity at the Pinrang site.

OBJECTIVE
Previous studies have investigated the incidence of type 2 diabetes in individuals with psychiatric disorders, but most studies have focused on a specific psychiatric disorder or a selected sample. More population-based studies are needed to determine these associations in representative samples. We therefore aimed to determine these associations in a nationwide, register-based dynamic cohort study.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
We analyzed data from 5,005,612 adults living in Denmark between 1995 and 2018, without prior diabetes. We investigated 10 different categories of psychiatric disorders and a composite group with any psychiatric disorder. Individuals with a psychiatric disorder were compared with individuals without using multivariable-adjusted Poisson regression to estimate incidence rate ratios (IRR) of type 2 diabetes. We modeled age-specific incidence rates (IR) for individuals with and without the specific psychiatric disorder. All models were stratified by sex.

RESULTS
In total, 334,739 individuals developed type 2 diabetes during follow-up. For all investigated categories of psychiatric disorders, we found increased IR of type 2 diabetes for individuals with versus those without a psychiatric disorder (IRR: men, 1.47 [95% CI 1.45–1.50]; women, 1.65 [95% CI 1.62–1.68]). When we examined age-specific IR, the largest differences were found in the younger population (&lt;50 years).

CONCLUSIONS
We found that the IR of type 2 diabetes was higher in individuals with a psychiatric disorder compared with individuals without a psychiatric disorder and particularly high in the younger people with a psychiatric disorder. New studies into the prevention and early detection of type 2 diabetes in these groups are warranted.

OBJECTIVE
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major risk factor for severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) for reasons that are unclear.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
We leveraged the International Study of Inflammation in COVID-19 (ISIC), a multicenter observational study of 2,044 patients hospitalized with COVID-19, to characterize the impact of DM on in-hospital outcomes and assess the contribution of inflammation and hyperglycemia to the risk attributed to DM. We measured biomarkers of inflammation collected at hospital admission and collected glucose levels and insulin data throughout hospitalization. The primary outcome was the composite of in-hospital death, need for mechanical ventilation, and need for renal replacement therapy.

RESULTS
Among participants (mean age 60 years, 58.2% males), those with DM (n = 686, 33.5%) had a significantly higher cumulative incidence of the primary outcome (37.8% vs. 28.6%) and higher levels of inflammatory biomarkers than those without DM. Among biomarkers, DM was only associated with higher soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) levels in multivariable analysis. Adjusting for suPAR levels abrogated the association between DM and the primary outcome (adjusted odds ratio 1.23 [95% CI 0.78, 1.37]). In mediation analysis, we estimated the proportion of the effect of DM on the primary outcome mediated by suPAR at 84.2%. Hyperglycemia and higher insulin doses were independent predictors of the primary outcome, with effect sizes unaffected by adjusting for suPAR levels.

CONCLUSIONS
Our findings suggest that the association between DM and outcomes in COVID-19 is largely mediated by hyperinflammation as assessed by suPAR levels, while the impact of hyperglycemia is independent of inflammation.
“I’m Going to Be Good to Me”: Exploring the Role of Shame and Guilt in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes
Authors: Solomon Ellen , Salcedo Venise J. , Reed Megan K. , Brecher Alison , Armstrong Elizabeth M. , Rising Kristin L. 
Published: January 2022

Objective
People with type 2 diabetes are likely to experience shame or guilt as they navigate through their disease. Previous research has shown that feelings of shame and guilt often exist within the clinician-patient relationship, often as a result of the complex care regimen required to achieve treatment goals. The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore patients’ experiences of shame and guilt in type 2 diabetes management and the impact their clinicians have on these experiences.

Methods
Semistructured interviews were used to explore patients’ experiences with shame and guilt. Interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed, and coded using directed content analysis. Demographic data were also obtained.

Results
We completed 20 interviews with people with type 2 diabetes (65% Black, 70% female). Participants exhibited feelings more consistent with guilt than with shame. All participants discussed how their clinicians affected these feelings. Patients who expressed feelings of guilt were able to recognize opportunities for behavior change without experiencing global devaluation, in which they linked their actions to an unchangeable aspect of their identity or personality, often describing their guilt as motivating of change. Unlike guilt, when patients experienced shame, they often exhibited global devaluation, in which they blamed their personality, experienced hopelessness, and increased maladaptive behaviors.

Conclusion
Our findings highlight a notable difference between shame and guilt in the context of type 2 diabetes management. We believe that incorporation of an understanding of these nuances, along with ideal responses to both shame and guilt, will enhance clinicians’ ability to provide high-quality patient-centered care to people with diabetes.
ONLINE GRAMMAR CHECKERS VERSUS SELF-EDITING: AN INVESTIGATION OF ERROR CORRECTION RATES AND WRITING QUALITY
Authors: Long Robert 
Published: January 2022

Background and Purpose: In order to compete with native speakers, EFL and ESL students are under more pressure to produce native-like academic papers. This has led to more reliance on online grammar checkers, but these can be ineffective with regards to identifying and giving feedback on particular grammatical forms, phrasing and issues relating to style. Language learners may not be effectively correcting these errors. Hence, this study aims to examine the effectiveness of one online grammar checker, grammarly.com, with that of self-editing.

Methodology: This case study employed a descriptive approach to data analysis. 199 essays were collected from undergraduates at four universities in Kyushu, dated from April, 2019 to January, 2020. 99 essays were proofed by an online grammar checker, while 100 essays were self-edited. The English proficiency level of the participants was at the lower to intermediate range (i.e., TOEIC 300 to a TOEIC 500). The online grammar checker Grammarly was utilized by all participants to minimize issues relating to feedback. In the analysis of data, the complexity, accuracy, and fluency (CAF) of the essays was assessed in order to examine the significant changes between the first and other drafts, and the types of errors produced.

Findings: Results showed that there were no significant differences found in terms of the methods of editing, although the participants who employed online grammar checkers had better results. It was also shown that there were no significant differences in terms of syntactical complexity with either method of editing. There were fewer errors committed by the participants who self-edited, but there were no significant differences in the edited drafts with regards to errors/100 ratios, error-free clauses, and error-free clause ratios. The study showed marginal differences between the two methods of proofing but indicated that online tools can be useful for identifying certain grammatical errors.

Contributions: This paper argues that educators need to work more with EFL learners on the editorial and proofing process, but online grammar checkers may be a useful pedagogical tool to help low-proficient L2 learners.

Keywords: Writing quality, editing, online grammar checkers, proofing, syntactical complexity.

TRUANCY AMONG SCHOOL CHILDREN: REASONS AND COUNSELLING EXPERIENCES
Authors: Mat Min Ruhani , Brahim Siti Sarah , Mohd Yusoff Raba’Aton Adawiah , Ramley Fazliyaton 
Published: January 2022

Background and Purpose: Truancy is one of the top discipline problems in Malaysia and the national prevalence of truancy indicates a significant number of students are truant. Counselling at school aims at helping schoolchildren in personality development and discipline. This qualitative study aims to research the experiences of counselling on schoolchildren who were reported for truancy.

Methodology: The research participants involved ten schoolchildren who had played truant and were required to participate in counselling sessions. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews, non-participant observations, and diary entries on two occasions for each participant. The data were analysed using thematic analysis to identify themes related to the participants’ experiences.

Findings: The findings showed that the reasons for truancy among the school children involve self and relationship with others. After being in sessions with school counsellors, the children reported being more responsible, which included behavioural, emotional and goal-based changes. The relationship with the school counsellor allowed them to experience belongingness, which supported them in choosing positive behaviour, emotions and goals, which is related to having a sense of responsibility.

Contributions: This paper argues that engaging in counselling with a school counsellor helped the schoolchildren to make responsible decisions about their behaviour, emotions and goals. The most important factor is the “relearning experience” in promoting responsibility among schoolchildren.
Keywords: Qualitative research, truancy, belongingness, school counselling, responsibility.

Published: January 2022

Abstract
This Article aims at the current high idle rate of landscaped gardens and a single overall style. The article inputs the quantitative relationship programming of the dynamic model of the urban landscape ecological city system into the Grasshopper software to obtain the urban landscape parameter growth curve, and at the same time applies the nonlinear parameterized model method to the landscape design. The research found that the feature form of the landscape garden presented in the thesis is mainly based on the nonlinear transformation of the local analysis structure feature. In the end, the thesis deeply researches the existing operating modes based on the concept of nonlinear thinking. Furthermore, it combines with information technology to supplement and update the traditional landscape construction from different perspectives.

Published: January 2022

AbstractIn 2014, a significant upgrade was made to the Borowiec (BORL 7811) laser-ranging system, which is the part of Space Research Centre of the Polish Academy of Sciences (SRC PAS). Two high-energy lasers modules were installed. First is the EKSPLA PL-2250, used for tracking objects equipped with retroreflectors. Second is the Continuum Surelite III, dedicated to the tracking of space debris without retroreflectors. In 2016, the BORL station joined the space debris tracking laser group and, since then, is tracking systematically inactive/defunct satellites and typical rocket bodies from LEO regime. Today, the BORL is tracking regularly about 80 different space debris objects. The paper presents the activity of the BORL laser station in observations of space debris. The results presented are from years 2016 to 2020. The sum of all passes from this period is almost 2 000, giving over 23 000 normal points. Average root mean square error (RMS) of objects with satellite laser ranging-dedicated (SLR-dedicated) retroreflectors ranges 1.5 cm–14 cm and of objects without SLR-dedicated retroreflectors ranges 8 cm–222 cm.
“Beneficial Owners” Policy: Comparison of Its Efficacy in the West with Prospects for Curbing Corruption in China
Authors: Zigo Daniel , Vincent Filip 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
Registers that collect data on beneficial owners, individuals who, either directly or indirectly, has the power to control companies or enjoy the benefits of ownership, are being implemented in many countries as part of the AML measures. Governments here want to know benefits from a company, to prevent money laundering or financing of terrorists. However, what is not common is the use of such a register to fight corruption. Slovakia has created a special model of the beneficial ownership registry, aimed at financial relations of the state with the private sector, so the information on who benefits from state funds is publicly available. In this context, we were interested in China and the regulation beneficial owners in this country, because, similar to Slovakia, the phenomenon of corruption is here a widespread problem, especially in the field of public procurement. Moreover, an anti-corruption campaign, aimed to clean the relations between the public and private sector, is still ongoing in China. The focus of this article is, therefore, a broad question about institutionalizing control of corruption: Could registration of beneficial owners be legally and technically transferred to the People’s Republic of China to help institutionalize the country’s anti-corruption campaign?

Abstract
Antarctic krill mainly inhabit the Antarctic Ocean, not far from Antarctica, especially the Weddell Sea, where krill is dense. Marine fisheries have reached new levels, but the topic of sustainable use of marine fishery resources is far from reaching the required levels. In order to study the sustainable development of the Antarctic krill environment, this paper studies the living environment and applicability of Antarctic krill based on system dynamics, and provides some references for the sustainable development of marine resources. Mentioned the use of case analysis method, literature analysis method and other methods to collect data, build a Model, and read and analyse a large number of related literatures through the literature survey method. The experimental results proved that the salinity has a significant effect on the survival rate of Antarctic krill (p < 0.05). When the salinity is 34, the molting frequency reaches its maximum value, which is 70 %. It is concluded that the ability of Antarctic krill to adapt to gradual changes in salinity is stronger than that of sudden changes in salinity, and the suitable salinity for survival is 30-42. With 34 as the basic salinity, when the salinity rises within a certain range, the molting rate of krill will increase, and as the salinity decreases, the molting rate will gradually decrease. This shows that improving the environmental resources of Antarctic krill is an effective method for improving salinity.

Authors: Zhang Lu , Liu Mengmeng 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
By using the experimental study method, the working properties and mechanical properties of grouting materials were determined by changing the cement-sand ratio, water-cement ratio, and cement admixtures. The main factors affecting the properties of grouting materials and the mutual influence rules of various factors are analysed and determined, and the best value range is obtained. Finally, the compressive strength of 28-day ordinary Portland cement structure grouting is optimised to 50-80 MPa. Based on the grouting ratio of ordinary Portland cement, an experimental study on the early strength structure paste of sulphate aluminate cement was carried out. The paste with one day strength as high as 70 MPa and good compatibility was prepared, and the early strength change law of the optimum ratio was deduced.
The government-business relationship and eco-innovation: evidence from chinese automobile industry
Authors: Gao Yu , Teng Zhuoqi , Cai Yan , Dong Xiaotian 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
This study used 2017-2019 Chinese A-share-listed automobile manufacturing companies as research samples to analyse the impact of the government-business relationship on eco-innovation. We found that a healthy government-business relationship had a positive impact on enterprise eco-innovation. The mediating effects test verified that a healthy government-business relationship affected enterprise eco-innovation through financing constraints. In addition, managerial ownership significantly increased the positive impact of a healthy government-business relationship on enterprise eco-innovation. We also found that a healthy government-business relationship had a more substantial impact on enterprise eco-innovation in non-state-owned enterprises when considering corporate property rights. The study results provide empirical evidence for the influence of the government-business relationship on enterprise eco-innovation and deepen our understanding of eco-innovation in China’s automobile manufacturing industry.
Analysis of the importance of art elements in the construction of ecological environment in the new era
Authors: Liu Fang 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
With the development of economy, people have higher and higher requirements for living art. A good ecological environment is the guarantee of creating an aesthetic environment. Taking the ecological environment construction of ecological town as an example, this paper analyses the importance of integrating artistic elements into the ecological environment construction in the new era from the perspective of environmental aesthetics. Based on the concept of "three life integration" and "garden city theory", this paper creatively puts forward the construction methods and models of ecological environment in contemporary small towns. Based on the height of environmental aesthetics, this paper analyses the planning and construction process of characteristic town and the evaluation and acceptance criteria of ecological environment design, summarises its successful experience and main problems, and makes a retrospective summary and reflection. This paper analyses the importance of the integration of art elements into the ecological town in the new era. The results show that in the new era of ecological environment construction, the integration of art elements can not only improve the quality of ecological environment construction, but also improve the common people's cognition of ecological beauty.
Macroeconomic determinants of savings in a developing economy: a new empirical evidence from Nigeria
Authors: Anthony-Orji Onyinye , Orji Anthony , Ogbuabor Jonathan E. 
Published: January 2022

Abstract

Subject and purpose of work: The issue of savings and what motivates it has continued to generate argument. This study, therefore, investigated the determinants of savings in Nigeria over the period 1980 to 2017.

Materials and methods: The study employed the Classical Linear Regression Model in its analysis.

Results: The results showed that the determinants of savings include per capita income, gross fixed capital formation, financial deepening and exchange rate. Interest rate and inflation rate showed negative impact on savings.

Conclusions: The study recommended that the variables that showed positive impact on savings rate should be properly directed with the relevant policy tools to ensure higher saving rates. Again, the government should direct spending towards economic activities that encourage the creation of more jobs and investments. This will enable individuals, firms and governments to have more money to save. Finally, the Monetary Authorities should pursue financial deepening policies and implement strategies that will enhance the increase of savings in Nigeria.
