Supervising Art and Design Students Who Integrate Mental Health Experiences with Autobiographical Research
Authors: Ings Welby 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThis article discusses some implications of working supportively with art and design students who manage mental health conditions in a postgraduate environment in a New Zealand University. The paper begins with a discussion of contesting research that considers relationships between highly creative thinkers and certain mental health conditions. It then proposes that, irrespective of arguments around correlations, supervisors are able to make a significant contribution to supporting candidates who combine autobiographically sourced knowledge with artistic inquiries into the experience of living with a mental health condition. In considering this proposition, the paper employs two case studies that illustrate certain strategies that proved useful when seeking to maximise the chances of successful and productive thesis completions. Working in tandem with wider institutional and therapeutic support, these strategies functioned alongside each candidate's research journey. Eight of these approaches are discussed in relation to a pedagogically responsive, informed and creatively supportive environment in which the students were able to develop complex and insightful research projects.

AbstractBackground and AimThe usefulness of fecal calprotectin (FC) and serum leucine‐rich alpha‐2 glycoprotein (LRG) assessing the activity of Crohn's disease (CD) remains to be fully demonstrated in Asia. The present study aimed to elucidate whether FC and LRG could predict endoscopic remission (ER) in Japanese patients with CD.MethodsBetween October 2018 and July 2021, we prospectively observed treatment courses of CD patients treated with biologic agents. The optimal cutoff values of Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI), serum C‐reactive protein (CRP), serum albumin (Alb), FC, and LRG levels for predicting ER at week 52 were calculated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. We also analyzed the correlations between the achievement of clinical remission (CR) or biomarker remission (BR) at week 12/24/52 and ER at week 52.ResultsAmong 53 patients who completed 52 weeks of observation, 20 (37.7%) achieved ER at week 52. Using the calculated cutoff values, patients who achieved CR (CDAI ≤ 112) or BR (CRP ≤ 0.42 mg/dL, Alb ≥ 3.8 g/dL, FC ≤ 287 μg/g, or LRG ≤ 13.6 μg/mL) at week 12/24/52 had a higher ER rate at week 52. FC‐BR at week 12/24 showed low sensitivity (0.58/0.60) but high specificity (0.78/0.74) for predicting ER; LRG‐BR at week 12/24 also showed low sensitivity (0.68/0.74) but high specificity (0.87/0.78). However, FC‐BR and LRG‐BR at week 52 had improved sensitivity (0.80/0.84) while specificity remained (0.79/0.85).ConclusionsFrom the early phase of biologic treatment, both FC and LRG had high specificity for predicting ER at week 52. LRG showed higher sensitivity than FC.

Published: June 2022

AbstractBackgroundThe body index [body mass, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference and waist–height ratio] and functional fitness (aerobic capacity, muscular strength, balance, flexibility and functional ability) of people with Down syndrome (DS) are substantially lower than those in the general population, as DS has an overall negative impact on health.AimsThis study explored the effect of a 24‐week basketball training programme on the body composition and functional fitness of adults with DS.Methods and procedure outcomesTwenty‐two adults with DS (24 ± 6 years; 25 ± 4 kg/m2) were randomly allocated to the experimental (n = 11, 67.04 kg) and control groups (n = 11, 69.36 kg). The experimental group performed 24 weeks of basketball programme training (3 times per week, 60 min per session), while the control group maintained their daily activities without any special physical training. Body composition and functional fitness parameters were measured before and after the intervention. To evaluate the differences between groups, an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used while controlling for differences at baseline.ResultsHip circumference and waist–height ratio were statistically different at baseline between the intervention and control groups. After the 24‐week basketball training programme, the results showed significant differences between the exercise and control groups for hip circumference, body mass, BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference, waist–height ratio, flexibility, aerobic capacity, static and dynamic balance, balance and basketball functional ability (P < 0.05). The exercise group showed significant improvements in all variables of body composition and functional fitness (P < 0.05) except for the waist–hip ratio. There was no statistical significance between all physical composition and functional health variables in the control group except for the standing long jump (P > 0.05), with effect sizes ranging from small to large.Conclusions and implicationsThe basketball training programme improved body composition and functional fitness of adults with DS.
No innovation without entrepreneurship: From passion to practice
Authors: Hölzle Katharina 
Published: June 2022

AbstractIn his Catalyst article, Kenneth Kahn takes an institutional perspective on innovation and entrepreneurship, arguing that a lack of differentiation between these two terms results in a missing demarcation of entrepreneurship and innovation centers at universities. This leads to research and teaching activities in the respective areas that are not clearly differentiated and therefore create suboptimal results. I reflect on Kenneth's thoughts but argue that we should not aim for two different centers or estranged disciplines of entrepreneurship and innovation but rather take a joint perspective centering on the challenges of creating and bringing the new to the world. I call for a joint core (aka the entrepreneurial mindset) of entrepreneurship and innovation at universities but different curricula and instruments for the individual challenges of entrepreneurship and innovation, differentiating along the source of the problem or idea, the disciplines involved, the instruments and conditions needed, and the ecosystems to be built.

AbstractOn June 19, 2020 at 20:05:07 UTC, a fireball lasting was observed above Western Australia by three Desert Fireball Network observatories. The meteoroid entered the atmosphere with a speed of  km  and followed a ° slope trajectory from a height of 75 km down to 18.6 km. Despite the poor angle of triangulated planes between observatories (29°) and the large distance from the observatories, a well‐constrained kilo‐size main mass was predicted to have fallen just south of Madura in Western Australia. However, the search area was predicted to be large due to the trajectory uncertainties. Fortunately, the rock was rapidly recovered along the access track during a reconnaissance trip. The 1.072 kg meteorite called Madura Cave was classified as an L5 ordinary chondrite. The calculated orbit is of Aten type (mostly contained within the Earth’s orbit), only the second time a meteorite was observed on such an orbit, after Bunburra Rockhole. Dynamical modeling shows that Madura Cave has been in near‐Earth space for a very long time. The dynamical lifetime in near‐Earth space for the progenitor meteoroid is predicted to be ~87 Myr. This peculiar orbit also points to a delivery from the main asteroid belt via the resonance, and therefore an origin in the inner belt. This result contributes to drawing a picture for the existence of a present‐day L chondrite parent body in the inner belt.
Delimiting Legal Interpretation: The Problem of Moral Bias and Political Distortion—the Case of Criminal Intention
Authors: Skoczeń Izabela , Poggi Francesca 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThis essay criticizes Dworkin’s and Greenberg’s interpretivism using one concrete example, namely, the interpretation of rules of criminal law pertaining to intentionality ascriptions. In fact, according to interpretivism, some judicial interpretations of criminal intention can be explained as practices that depart from legislatively communicated content to implement moral principles. We distinguish between a Kantian and a consequentialist approach to criminal intention and claim that judicial practice can be viewed as an implementation of the consequentialist approach which pulls apart the Kantian criteria communicated by the legislator. However, we argue that, in doing so, judges open the door to folk biases, political pressures, and stereotypes that produce distorted and unfair results. To deal with this objection, interpretivism would have to both claim that judicial practice is erroneous and provide a theory of objective moral truth, yet it fails in both respects.

Representations of dementia and their role in social expectations regarding ageing
Authors: Marhánková Jaroslava Hasmanová 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThis paper reviews existing research on dementia worry and its role in general fears and expectations regarding one's ageing. Understanding older people's knowledge regarding dementia, the way they construct meanings regarding dementia and older age, and their attitudes toward people already experiencing dementia is essential in formulating adequate social and health policy, as well as for our understanding of the experience of ageing (with, without or in addition to dementia). This paper explores dementia as a significant framework for the construction of anxieties regarding advanced old age and also a symbolic reference point for the representations of the third and fourth ages — successful and less successful ageing. We point out a crucial role on the part of dementia in the social images of ageing, not only as a symbolic embodiment of frailty but also as an essential framework through which the distinction between desirable “successful”, “active” ageing, and “failed”, “horrific” old age is (re)constructed.

Published: June 2022

AbstractObjectiveElectroretinography (ERG) is used prior to cataract removal surgery to assess retinal function. We aimed to replicate and improve upon previous studies by performing a full ECVO protocol and by examining the retina post‐surgery in all patients.Animals studiedOne hundred twenty‐seven eyes from 67 dogs were included in the study.ProceduresA full ECVO protocol electroretinography, which includes extensive rod and cone analysis, was performed on all dogs presenting for cataract surgery.ResultsOur main findings were that amplitudes, but not implicit times of rod responses decreased with advanced cataracts. Amplitudes of the single flash rod and rod flicker responses were significantly lower in eyes with mature cataracts, and the former also decreased in hypermature cataracts. Cone flicker amplitude responses were also significantly lower in eyes with mature and hypermature cataracts. However, mixed single flash rod‐cone and cone responses, with the exception of the mixed rod‐cone a‐wave amplitude in eyes with hypermature cataracts, were unaffected by cataract stage. The b‐wave amplitude of the scotopic, mixed rod‐cone, and photopic cone responses were affected by age and decreased by an average of 2.9, 7.5, and 1.5 μV/year, retrospectively (p < 0.01).ConclusionsLower ERG amplitudes in canine cataract patients may result from aging or the presence of advanced cataracts and may not indicate the presence of retinal disease.

AbstractPhycoremediation of Chlorella sorokiniana P21 as indigenous strain (P21), four algal communities from different wastewater treatment ponds (P1, P2, P3 and P4) and a native algal bloom (CTRL) were examined to treat cassava biogas effluent wastewater (CBEW) and generate algal biomass. All cultures showed higher biomass production in unsterilized CBEW than in the sterilized CBEW, whereas nutrient removal efficiency was not significantly different in both conditions for all cultures. Verhulst kinetics models showed P21 culture has the highest maximum biomass (1440.94 mg L−1), whereas P3 showed the highest growth rate (0.68 day−1). The removal efficiencies of these cultures for nitrate, phosphate and chemical oxygen demand were above 75%. Iron coagulants attained the removal to be more than 90% only in P21 culture. Indigenous and algal community cultures had similar potencies to treat wastewater, and thus, this result showed vast potency of phycoremediation using various inoculum sources.

Published: June 2022

AbstractSludge bulking is a major problem in activated sludge processes. It is of great practically useful to predict the sludge settleability through water quality (influent and effluent) and the operation patterns. In this study, the artificial neural network (ANN) to predict the variation of sludge settleability was established with MLSS, organic loading rate and NH4+‐N loading rate as basic input variables. Additional input variables were optimized through comparing the performance of multilayer perceptron artificial neural network (MLPANN) with different combinations. The results showed that excellent nitrification will improve sludge settleability, and the famine phase would promote the growth of filamentous bacteria. Furthermore, the model performance of MLPANN and long short‐term memory networks (LSTM) were compared by using optimized input variables. The results indicated the MLPANN performed better than LSTM with optimized inputs. This study provided a reference of optimizing variables to predict the variation of sludge settleability in activated sludge process. This study will provide a reference for selecting appropriate variables to predict sludge settleability in activated sludge processes.

Published: June 2022

AbstractIn order to effectively promote the treatment of pollution containing organics or crude oil, many oil‐absorbing materials were explored. However, most of them were synthetic polymers, which was difficult to be decomposed and easily cause secondary pollution. In this study, zein and sodium alginate (SA), two cheap natural polymer materials, were used as eco‐friendly and biodegradable biomass materials; a novel porous biomass‐based sponge (ZS‐PBSp) was synthesized. Then, by impregnating with SiO2 nanoparticle (nano‐SiO2) and octadecanethiol (OCT), the modified porous sponge (ZSSiOsp) was obtained. ZSSiOsp was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared (IR), X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and applied to adsorb organics, such as organic solvents, petroleum products and cooking oil. It indicated that the surface of ZSSiOsp was rough, and its water contact angle (WCA) increased to 131.5°. ZSSiOsp effectively adsorbed organics, its absorption capacity got to 115.7% for chloroform and 77.6% for rapeseed oil, respectively. It also effectively separated oily substances from oil–water mixture. In summary, the obtained ZSSiOsp was an eco‐friendly material for oil absorption and separation, which was a kind of promising candidate in water treatment and environmental protection.
Promoting wastewater treatment in India: Critical questions of economic viability
Authors: Bassi Nitin , Kumar Saurabh , Kumar M. Dinesh , Van Ermen Sofie , Campling Paul 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThe article shows that while there is rich literature on the cost‐effectiveness of wastewater treatment systems, little analysis exists on their economic viability that goes beyond direct benefits and costs to include externalities, which is very crucial for developing countries like India. This article first presents the results of life cycle cost assessment of various wastewater treatment technologies used in India. The article then shows that the direct benefits from treated wastewater are unlikely to be high in most situations due to lack of orientation towards the demand. It argues that for sustainable investments in wastewater treatment, the indirect benefits including public health benefits due to protection of drinking water sources, environmental benefits due to maintenance of aquatic life and improvement of soil health, which are determined by the socio‐economic and ecological conditions that vary across regions, should also be considered and quantified.

Analysis of Modified Reverse Brayton Cycle-Based Systems for Cold Generation at Low Temperature Using Exergoeconomics
Authors: Dhillon Aman Kumar , Ghosh Parthasarathi 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
High-temperature superconductor (HTS)-based technology is getting increased attention as the most appropriate technology for electric power transmission towards reduction in CO2 emissions and augmentation of the energy supply. However, this cryogenic technology demands highly efficient and economically reliable cooling systems, having a cooling capacity of 2–10 kW at a temperature range of 65–80 K. The refrigeration cost is one of the critical issues for such superconducting technologies to penetrate the marketplace. Thus, cryocoolers with modification based on reverse Brayton cycle (RBC) comprising different turbine arrangements are analyzed to meet the demand of cryogenic technologies. The exergoeconomic analysis which combines the exergy and economic analysis is performed to identify the source of exergy destruction that affects the economy and performance of the systems based on RBC. The optimized RBC configurations using the exergoeconomic tool are evaluated and compared to find a thermodynamically enhanced configuration with reduced refrigeration cost. These configurations are compared using exergy, economic, exergoeconomic, design evaluation parameters, and environmental footprint. The results indicate that the cost of exergy destruction reduces around 30% while optimizing these novel RBC configurations. The saving with successful running for ten years is around 6% of the total investment using parallel expansion with different pressure ratio (PED) RBC configuration, which is one of the best performances with 41.1% exergy efficiency. Based on the study, recommendations based on exergoeconomic parameters are also provided for further improvement in the cycles.

Published: June 2022

People’s need for healthcare capacity has become increasingly critical as the elderly population continues to grow in most communities. Approximately 25–47% of seniors fall annually, and early detection of poor balance can significantly reduce their risk. Automated fall detection with big data analytics is key to maintaining the safety of the elderly in smart cities. Visible image systems (VIS) in smart buildings, on the other hand, visible image systems (VIS) in smart buildings may compromise the privacy of seniors by enabling technologies for intelligent big data analytics (IBDA). Thermal imaging (TI) is less obtrusive than visual imaging and can be used in combination with machine vision to perform a wide range of IBDAs. In this study, we present a novel two-step method for detecting falls in TI frames using deep learning (DL). As the first step, tracking tools are used to locate people’s locations. A novel modified deep transfer learning (TL) technique is used to classify the trajectory created by the tracking approach for people who are at risk of falling. Fall detection by the IBDA will be connected to the Internet of medical things (IoMT) and used as smart technology in the process of big data-assisted pervasive surveillance and health analytics. According to an analysis of the publicly available thermal fall dataset, our method outperforms traditional fall detection methods, with an average error of less than 3%. Additionally, IoMT platforms facilitate data processing, real-time monitoring and healthcare management. Our smart scheme for using big data analytics to enable intelligent decisions is compatible with the various spaces and provides a comfortable and safe environment for current and future elderly people.
