Published: November 2022

Background
During major pandemics such as COVID-19, the fear of being infected, uncertain prognoses, and the imposition of restrictions may result in greater odds of emotional and psychological distress. Hence, the present study examines the predictors of psychological distress during the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada, and how they differ by gender.

Methods
Data of 2,756 adults aged 18 years and above from a cross-sectional online survey conducted between July and October 2020 was used for this study. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was carried out. The results were presented as adjusted odds ratio (aOR) with their respective confidence interval (CI).

Results
Lower odds of psychological distress were found among males compared to females and among individuals aged 45–64 or 65–84 years compared to those aged 18–44. The odds of psychological distress decreased with a rise in income, with individuals whose annual income was greater than or equal to $100,000 being less likely to experience psychological distress compared to those whose income was less than $20,000. The odds of psychological distress were higher among residents of Ontario compared to residents of Quebec. Similarly, the odds of psychological distress were higher among individuals who reported experiencing COVID-19 symptoms compared to those who did not report any COVID-19 symptoms. The disaggregated results by gender showed that age, province, and self-reported COVID-19 symptoms had significant associations with psychological distress in both males and females, but these effects were more pronounced among females compared to males. In addition, income was negatively associated with psychological distress for both males and females, with this effect being stronger among males.

Conclusion
Five exposure variables (gender, age, province, experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, and total annual income in 2019) significantly predicted the likelihood of reporting psychological distress during the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada. Clearly, there is an imminent need to provide mental health support services to vulnerable groups. Additionally, interventions and policies aimed at combating psychological distress during pandemics such as COVID-19 should be gender specific.

BackgroundInfant sunlight exposure in their early infancy is essential for the cutaneous synthesis of vitamin D. Vitamin D deficiency is highly prevalent due to inadequate exposure to sunlight. In Ethiopia, one in thirteen children had rickets, which could be prevented by sunlight exposure or supplementation. This study aimed to identify the practice of infants’ sunlight exposure and associated factors among mothers attending the Expanded program immunization unit of Wolkite University Specialized Hospital.MethodThis study employed an institutional-based cross-sectional study design to collect data. Data were collected from 220 mothers using an interviewer-administered questionnaire. The study employed a systematic random sampling technique to reach the study participants. The collected data were entered into a computer using the software Epidata 3.1 version and exported to SPSS version 23 for statistical analysis. Descriptive and inferential analysis was conducted. Logistic regression analysis was done, and a statistical association was declared at a p-value < 5% and a 95% confidence interval(CI). Then the results were presented using a frequency table, figures, and description.ResultA total of 220 infant-coupled mothers who visited the Expanded program immunization unit were included in the study. According to the current study, 67.3% of mothers had good practice with infants’ sunlight exposure. Mothers’ practice of infant sunlight exposure was affected by age of mothers 30–34 years, [AOR = 3.10, 95%CI (1.13, 8.51)], and age ≥35 years, [AOR = 4.49, 95%CI (1.20, 16.86)], and living in urban, [AOR = 1.94, 95%CI (1.053, 3.57)].ConclusionThe current study showed that two-thirds (67.3%) of mothers had good practice of sunlight exposure to their infants. Factors that affect mothers’ practice of infants’ sunlight exposure are age and place of residence. Health professionals should provide health education for mothers on the benefits of infants’ sunlight exposure.

Introduction
The COVID-19 pandemic drove rapid adoption of telehealth across oncologic specialties. This revealed barriers to telehealth access and telehealth-related disparities. We explored disparities in telehealth access in patients with cancer accessing oncologic care.

Materials/Methods
Data for all unique patient visits at a large academic medical center were acquired pre- and intra-pandemic (7/1/2019-12/31/2020), including visit type (in-person, video, audio only), age, race, ethnicity, rural/urban (per zip code by Federal Office of Rural Health Policy), distance from medical facility, insurance, and Digital Divide Index (DDI; incorporates technology/internet access, age, disability, and educational attainment metrics by geographic area). Pandemic phases were identified based on visit dynamics. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to examine associations of these variables with successful video visit completion.

Results
Data were available for 2,398,633 visits for 516,428 patients across all specialties. Among these, there were 253,880 visits from 62,172 patients seen in any oncology clinic. Dramatic increases in telehealth usage were seen during the pandemic (after 3/16/2020). In multivariable analyses, patient age [OR: 0.964, (95% CI 0.961, 0.966) P<0.0001], rural zip code [OR: 0.814 (95% CI 0.733, 0.904) P = 0.0001], Medicaid enrollment [OR: 0.464 (95% CI 0.410, 0.525) P<0.0001], Medicare enrollment [OR: 0.822 (95% CI 0.761, 0.888) P = 0.0053], higher DDI [OR: 0.903 (95% CI 0.877, 0.930) P<0.0001], distance from the facility [OR: 1.028 (95% CI 1.021, 1.035) P<0.0001], black race [OR: 0.663 (95% CI 0.584, 0.753) P<0.0001], and Asian race [OR: 1.229 (95% CI 1.022, 1.479) P<0.0001] were associated with video visit completion early in the pandemic. Factors related to video visit completion later in the pandemic and within sub-specialties of oncology were also explored.

Conclusions
Patients from older age groups, those with minority backgrounds, and individuals from areas with less access to technology (high DDI) as well as those with Medicare or Medicaid insurance were less likely to use video visits. With greater experience through the pandemic, disparities were not mitigated. Further efforts are required to optimize telehealth to benefit all patients and avoid increasing disparities in care delivery.
Spatial and hierarchical Bayesian analysis to identify factors associated with caesarean delivery use in Ethiopia: Evidence from national population and health facility data
Authors: Tegegne Teketo Kassaw , Chojenta Catherine , Getachew Theodros , Smith Roger , Loxton Deborah 
Published: November 2022

Background
Caesarean section has a significant role in reducing maternal and neonatal mortality. A linked analysis of population and health facility data is valuable to map and identify caesarean section use and associated factors. This study aimed to identify geographic variation and associated factors of caesarean delivery in Ethiopia.

Method
Linked data analysis of the 2016 Ethiopia Demographic and Health Survey (EDHS) and the 2014 Ethiopian Service Provision Assessment Plus (ESPA+) survey was performed. Spatial analysis was conducted to identify geographic variations and factors associated with caesarean delivery. Hierarchical Bayesian analysis was also performed to identify factors associated with caesarean delivery using the SAS MCMC procedure.

Results
Women’s age and education, household wealth, parity, antenatal care (ANC) visits, and distance to caesarean section facility were associated with caesarean delivery use. Women who had ≥4 ANC visits were 4.67 (95% Credible Interval (CrI): 2.17, 9.43) times more likely to have caesarean delivery compared to those who had no ANC visits. Women who had education and were from rich households were also 2.80 (95% CrI: 1.83, 4.19) and 1.80 (95% CrI: 1.08, 2.84) times more likely to have caesarean deliveries relative to women who had no education and were from poor households, respectively. A one-kilometer increase in distance to a caesarean section facility was associated with an 88% reduction in the odds of caesarean delivery (Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR) = 0.12, 95% CrI: 0.01, 0.78). Hotspots of high caesarean section rates were observed in Addis Ababa, Dire Dawa, and the Harari region. In addition, women’s age at first childbirth and ≥4 ANC visits showed significant spatially varying relations between caesarean delivery use across Ethiopia.

Conclusion
Caesarean section is a lifesaving procedure, and it is essential to narrow disparities to reduce maternal and neonatal mortality and avoid unnecessary procedures.
Knowledge management and project uncertainty in ppen innovation context
Authors: Alves Josivan Leite , Carvalho Marly Monteiro de 
Published: November 2022

Goal: We aims to map the literature that correlates uncertainty management and Open Innovation at project level, identifying the main contributions of knowledge management.
Design/Methodology/Approach: We applied the Systematic Literature Review - SLR approach associated with Bibliometric analysis. To sample compose we use the Scopus and Web of Science databases. We also use the Bibliometrix R package to managed the sample process compose and bibliometric analysis and content analysis to identify the main topics.
Results: The contributions mainly discuss the performance of OI projects to generate competitive advantage for organizations. The sample are categorized in technical, market, organizational and resource uncertainties. There is a greater focus on market and organizational uncertainties justified by the propagation of uncertainty.
Limitations of the investigation: Even with transparency in the analysis and sample composition, the discussions may be subject to subjective interpretations by the authors.
Practical Implications: This study has managerial implications. Our study helps managers identify core KM mechanisms in OI projects that enable sharing, integration, and knowledge flow between the network partners. Our findings show that the main challenge lies in organizational culture and the change of mindset, which influences the opening to new partnerships, knowledge sharing, and internal and external partners' trust to leverage innovation. For that, managers have to be aware of the KM barriers such as lack of trust or information asymmetry.
Originality/ Value: We correlate uncertainties management in the OI projects, considering the influence of KM. We present conceptual maps. We identified emerging topics and we suggest a theoretical model of the research.
(Re)Mapping the Columbian Exchange: Suggestions for an Updated Cartography - Figures

Published: November 2022

<p>Following Christopher Columbus’ voyages to the Caribbean and South America in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, and the ensuing colonization of the New World by Europeans, a massive multidirectional transfer of biota, diseases, technology and humans occurred between Afro-Eurasia and the Americas. This transfer, known as the Columbian Exchange, is often depicted on maps as a simplified, bidirectional, Atlantic-centred, historically unprecedented transaction between the Americas and Europe. By examining a specific, oft-used map of the Exchange, this paper highlights the shortcoming of these misleading depictions and posits that, in their distortions, they impede the effective teaching of the era’s history. Concretely, we present five short life histories of important Columbian Exchange products – sweet potatoes, sugarcane, maize, tomatoes and quinine – and use them to illustrate the major cartographic and ideological problems of traditional Columbian Exchange maps. These problems include overly constrained geographic scope, chronological compression, non-depiction of the contemporaneous movement of important cultural, technological and biological elements of each product, ethnocentrism and the obscuring of human consequences. Each of our product biographies is accompanied by a new map of the product’s diffusion, one that is a template for future (re)mappings of the Columbian Exchange. </p>

Abstract

Objectives
The stability of gene transcripts associated with the presence of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) has been predominantly studied in cultured cancer cell lines added to blood samples under artificial conditions. In the present study the effect of storage on CTC-related transcripts was assessed in blood samples taken from patients with non-small lung cancer (n=58).

Methods
The blood samples were split in two equal parts to compare the gene expression with and without storage for 24 h at ambient temperature without preservative added. After enrichment using the microfluidic Parsortix® technology, the expression levels of selected genes were assessed using quantitative PCR following a gene-specific pre-amplification. The prognostic relevance of each gene in fresh and stored blood samples was evaluated using the R-package Survminer.

Results
Some genes were either not affected (TWIST1, CDH5, CK19) or upregulated upon storage (NANOG, MET, UCHL1) but still associated with poor prognosis. In contrast, ERBB3, PTHLH, EpCAM, and TERT were no longer associated with the overall survival of the patients.

Conclusions
The study demonstrates the surprising stability of CTC-related transcripts, which makes overnight shipping of native blood samples possible. Careful verification is required when using model systems – such as normal blood spiked with tumor cells – or other CTC-related markers, as individual transcripts may respond differently to storage.
On Degenerate 3-(α,δ)-Sasakian Manifolds

Published: November 2022

AbstractWe propose a new method to construct degenerate 3-(α,δ)-Sasakian manifolds as fiber products of Boothby-Wang bundles over hyperkähler manifolds. Subsequently, we study homogeneous degenerate 3-(α,δ)-Sasakian manifolds and prove that no non-trivial compact examples exist aswell as that there is exactly one family of nilpotent Lie groups with this geometry, the quaternionic Heisenberg groups.
Influence of blast volume on hot blast distribution rule around the hearth circumferentially
Authors: Liu Bing-nan , Che Yu-man , Shi Ben-hui , Li Hai-feng , Lu Jin-lin 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Based on Ansteel’s new No. 5 blast furnace (BF), the distribution rule of hot blast on the circumference of blast furnace hearth under different blast volume was studied. The results show that, the blast volume distribution rule is similar under different blast volumes, that is, there are four regions with large blast volumes at the 0°, 90°, 180° and 270° positions of the bustle pipe. Under different blast volumes, the difference of blast volume near 90° and 270° is close to 0, which has a minor effect on the uneven distribution of gas flow and circumferential asymmetry of packed bed in BF. However, the blast volume of the tuyere near the 180° is always larger than that of the tuyere near 0°, and with the increase of blast volume from 4600 to 5000 nm3/min, this difference keeps increasing, 0.69 to 0.95 nm3/min. This phenomenon will lead to an increase in the coke consumption on the 180° side, and cause a higher descending velocity of coke than that on the 0° side, this difference increases from 0.39 to 0.54 m, which could further result in the unevenness of blast volume distribution and the circumferential asymmetry of packed bed in BF. Comparing with the actual production in Ansteel, the results obtained in this work are in good agreement with the phenomenon in practical production.
Gestational complications associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnant women during 2020–2021: systematic review of longitudinal studies
Authors: Ramirez Ubillus Gian Carlos , Sedano Gelvet Eduardo Eulogio , Neira Montoya Carlos Ricardo 
Published: November 2022

Abstract

Objectives
To identify gestational complications associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnant women during 2020–2021.

Content
The risk of gestational complications was confirmed during SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV infection. However, this is not robust for COVID-19 because there is still no scientific evidence from longitudinal studies. A systematic review was performed using four databases, and 14 prospective or retrospective cohorts were finally included in the analysis.

Summary
The most frequently associated sociodemographic characteristic or comorbidity was the presence of any previous comorbidity (9 studies, 64.3%), followed by ethnicity and age (6 studies each one, 42.9%). The most frequently associated gestational complications in mothers were the admission to Intensive Care Unit (4 studies, 28.6%) and gestational age at delivery <37 weeks (3 studies, 21.4%). The most frequently associated gestational complications in newborns were preterm birth (4 studies, 28.6%) and the admission to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (2 studies, 14.3%).

Outlook
Pregnant women infected with SARS-CoV-2 appear to have a higher risk of admission to Intensive Care Unit. Newborns of mothers infected with SARS-CoV-2 appear to have a higher risk of preterm birth and admission to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

Individual differences in phonetic imitation and their role in sound change
Authors: Pinget Anne-France 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
This paper explores the possibility that the spread of sound change within a community correlates with individual differences in imitation capacities. The devoicing of labiodental fricatives in Dutch serves as a case study of an ongoing sound change showing regional and individual variation. The imitation capacities of Dutch speakers born and raised in five regions of the Dutch language area were investigated in a forced imitation task (Study 2) and a spontaneous imitation task (Study 3), and compared to baseline productions (Study 1) of the variable undergoing sound change. Results showed that the leaders of sound change in each region were significantly less accurate in imitating model talkers – when they were instructed to – than conservative speakers, but they were more inclined to spontaneously imitate talkers. These insights are discussed in view of the literature on different types and measures of imitation capacities, on the actors of sound change and the two apparently paradoxical features of the language system: its stability and its potential for sound change.
Melanchthon and Servet
Authors: Grosse Sven 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
In 1521, Melanchthon preferred to adore the Trinity rather than investigate it. However, already in 1523 he revealed his conception of his object of adoration to be a fairly classical and Augustinian one. Michael Servet emerged in 1531 with his critique of the classical doctrine of the Trinity, in which he reduced the concept of „person“ to a mere speaking part or representation of the Deity. Melanchthon became aware of Servet’s doctrines in 1533 and immediately became involved in studying Servet and developing his theology in a defense of the classical doctrine of the Trinity. His first major argument was that the Bible describes Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit as divine and simultaneously distinct from God the Father. The second was that the Bible demanded the adoration of Christ and that to adore was to accord the honour of divinity. Melanchthon’s doctrine of the Trinity proved to be practically-minded and was thus a presupposition for the crucial doctrine of justification. Melanchthon presented the same argument in a letter addressing sympathisers of the Reformation in Venice in 1539, demonstrating that Servet’s books were already known in the city at the time and that Melanchthon perceived a need to combat them.
ИЗУЧЕНИЕ ХАРАКТЕРА ИЗМЕНЕНИЙ НОРМ РУССКОГО ЯЗЫКА
Authors: Шадиева Дилрабо Курбановна 
Published: November 2022

В данной статье рассмотрены различные нарушения, которые встречаются в СМИ при употреблении, а также изучение тенденций изменений норм русского языка и экстраполяция. Изменение, пренебрежение и в некотором смысле попрание языковых норм можно рассматривать как показатель деградации общества при одновременном стремлении к мировой глобализации, а соответственно и развитию, предполагающему соответствие высоким стандартам этой среды. В нашем исследовании мы будем опираться на интерпретацию понятия экстраполяции как возможности сохранения для будущего употребления выводов, анализа, осмысления и практической переработки информации, сформулированных в системе рекомендаций для прогнозирования вариантов развития этих норм. На современном этапе развития русского литературного языка, когда демократизация общества приводит к снижению значимости языковых норм, использование кодифицированных фразеологизмов подменяется фразами с тем же значением, но способ выражения обусловлен требованиями современного этапа развития общества (яркость, красочность, подбор лексических средств для неординарного выражения идеи). Первый вариант выходит из употребления, встречается в художественной литературе как устойчивое выражение, возникает тенденция медленного перехода в разряд устаревшего, поскольку используется в речи все реже, активно заменяется вторым, экспрессивным.
