Authors: Mudau Patience Kelebogile 
Published: February 2022

<p style="text-align:justify">Technological advances and the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic have forced higher education institutions to be innovative in delivering education in their countries. E- assessment using e-portfolio illustrates the importance of assessment practices that promote constructivist perception, allowing students to create their own learning as active participants through innovative learning and assessment activities. The purpose of this paper was to explore lecturer’s understandings on the functionality of e-portfolio as an alternative assessment in an Open Distance e-Learning (ODeL). For this qualitative study, within an interpretative paradigm, interviews were conducted with four lecturers using thematic approach. The findings revealed that e-portfolio is beneficial for assessment in the ODeL as it allows students the opportunity to self-embrace their learning, e-portfolio enhances student-centeredness through authentic assessment practices. However, e-portfolio is not implemented to its potential due to challenges and constraints experienced by lecturers. Based on the findings, it is recommended that training workshops beneficial for lecturers should be conducted at the beginning of the course/module on how to create their e-portfolios. Furthermore, an e-portfolio assessment framework to be facilitated for the successful implementation of e-portfolio assessment strategy. </p>

Abstract. Andreychev A, Lapshin A, Kuznetsov V. 2021. Short Communication: Vocalization of the Long-eared owl Asio otus (Strigiformes, Strigidae) in the Middle Volga, Russia. Biodiversitas 22: 5325-5330. Both daily and seasonal year-round vocalizations of the Long-eared owl (Asio otus) (Linnaeus, 1758) were recorded in the Middle Volga River region, Russia with the use of digital dictophones. Voice recorders were installed in the daytime for up to 5 days. The maximum duration of continuous operation of voice recorders was about 140 hours. By the time the previous recording was finished, we would arrive and move the recorder to a different location. The Long-eared owl can be classified as a moderately vocalizing bird, with calls recorded during 3 spring months. Peak activity is associated with pre-incubation and incubation periods. In the spring months, calls of the Long-eared owl were recorded from 16.37 h to 03.43 h. In the spring, the Long-eared owl began to cry before sunset (from 1 hour 30 minutes to 3 hours 15 minutes) and after sunset (from 56 minutes to 3 hours 39 minutes). Vocalization started after sunset for an average of 50 minutes. Vocalization always ended before dawn (to 1 h 21 min). Statistically significant differences in the duration of vespers and morning vocalizations were obtained with the use Mann-Whitney U test (Z = -3.08; p < 0.05).

Abstract. Soleha S, Muslim A, Suwandi S, Kadir S, Pratama R. 2021. Host range studies of Fusarium oxysporum, causal agent of seedling wilt disease of Acacia mangium. Biodiversitas 23: 25-32. Fusarium oxysporum is a serious pathogen that causes severe wilt disease in commercial nurseries of Acacia mangium in South Sumatra, Indonesia. This study aimed to investigate the host range of F. oxysporum as a nursery wilt pathogen in A. mangium and several forest and industrial plants. Three isolates of F. oxysporum with different translation elongation factor (tef 1-a) sequences were tested for pathogenicity on different fabaceae family plants and the growth of population was also observed. The results showed that all the three isolates were able to infect all the tested plants with different reactions of wilt disease. The Acacia crassicarpa and Falcataria moluccana were highly susceptible; Archidendron pauciflorum, Leucaena leucocephala, and Parkia speciosa were moderately vulnerable and Acacia auriculiformis was moderately resistant. The pathogen population in A. crassicarpa and F. moluccana grew rapidly along with the increase in disease scores, while in L. leucocephala it was moderate, and slow in A. pauciflorum, P. speciosa and A. auriculiformis plants. In conclusion, F. oxysporum pathogen, which was isolated from A. mangium, has a wide range of hosts in the fabaceae family.
Learning objectives for medical student teaching in the operating theatre: surgeons’ experiences and factors influencing operative participation
Authors: Ravindra P , Fitzgerald JEF , Maxwell-Armstrong CA 
Published: February 2022

Introduction The operating theatre offers a unique and rich learning environment for medical students. Recent evidence indicates that medical student attendance at theatre teaching is low. There is limited evidence of the perceptions of the teacher in this environment. The aim of this study was to characterise the experiences of consultant surgeons when teaching medical students in theatre. Methods A 22-item self-administered survey was distributed to all surgical consultants in 5 specialties involved in the delivery of medical education at 5 hospitals associated with a single UK medical school. Responses were anonymous. Results Questionnaires were returned by 99 (64%) of the 154 surgical consultants. The majority (n=80, 80%) enjoyed teaching medical students in the operating theatre. Two-thirds (64%) set learning objectives for their students but a quarter (25%) did not feel that they knew what the curriculum expected students to learn. Two-thirds (65%) of the consultants stated that they would not let students perform procedures in theatre. Respondents suggested a total of 266 generic objectives that they would want medical students to learn. These were grouped by theme, with the most commonly cited learning objectives being clinical knowledge (44%), skills and procedures (29%), awareness of the room environment (18%) and appreciation of the patient journey (9%). Conclusions Surgeons are largely positive about delivering medical student teaching in the theatre environment. Teacher training with clearer communication between medical school faculty and surgical teachers may help facilitate objective setting to ensure students derive maximum benefit from this unique teaching environment.
Mental practice in surgical training
Authors: Rajaratnam V , Rahman NA , Omar UF , Ng HJH 
Published: February 2022

Introduction The traditional methods of surgical training through apprenticeship are evolving owing to time constraints and new models of surgical training. Surgical programmes have begun to encompass technological advances such as simulation technology and online courses to improve surgical skills in a safe environment. Simulation training is not universally available because of financial constraints. Mental practice (MP) and motor imagery (MI) is a form of mental rehearsal and simulation without the need for external inputs. It has been successful in sports and music, and is a time and cost effective strategy to improve skills. MP can be translated into surgical skill acquisition and the aim of this review was to provide a systematic narrative synthesis of the current literature to support the use of MP in surgical training. Methods A systematic search was conducted on PubMed and Google Scholar™ to identify studies published up to March 2020 on MP in surgical skill acquisition. Results Nineteen studies were included in the review. Thirteen demonstrated a significant improvement in the knowledge and performance of the participants in learning surgical skills after MP. There was improved confidence in surgical trainees after MP in three studies. Conclusions MP appears to be effective in aiding surgical skill acquisition and retention. There is lack of methodological rigour in the design and development of the mental script, which is an important component in MP. MP augments physical practice and is a viable strategy to enhance surgical training. However, further studies are required to demonstrate that these skills are transferable to clinical practice.
Use of a human factors analysis tool in the analysis of surgical ‘never events’
Authors: Howie E , Chisholm E , Coulston JE 
Published: February 2022

Introduction Human factors methodologies in investigating incidents have been employed in aviation and other industries for some time. The National Health Service is moving towards a thematic approach to incidents to reduce blame associated with investigations and to produce better focus for improvements so as to minimise the risk of repetition of serious events and patient harm. Methods All surgical ‘never events’ reported via the trust's incident reporting system between 2016 and 2020 were included for analysis. Serious incident investigation reports were analysed using the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFCAS) tool to identify corresponding nanocodes and associated levels of error. Results A total of 624 nanocodes were identified from 9 never events. There was a mean of 23 nanocodes (range: 14–27). Level 2 failures (preconditions for unsafe acts) followed by level 1 failures (unsafe acts) were the levels of HFACS associated with the highest number of nanocodes identified. The greatest number of individual nanocodes identified related to lack of teamwork (n=23) and failures of communication (n=21). Conclusions This study provides a thematic analysis of surgical never events using a validated human factors tool. It illustrates the complexity of error around such incidents and the common areas (levels) of failure. Utilisation of a human factors tool in assessing never events can give a more focused approach to improvement following these events with the aim of reducing the risk of further surgical never events and improving safety for surgical patients.
Nature, costs and benefits of clinical travelling fellowships
Authors: Glazer Retired G , Cumberbatch L 
Published: February 2022

INTRODUCTION Many trainee doctors and consultants visit clinical units abroad for a period of specialised training. There are a number of grants available from professional and other bodies that provide a variable degree of financial assistance for these doctors but there is little information about the nature, costs and benefits of these training opportunities. METHODS This 11-year analysis of 385 applications to the Hospital Corporation of America International Foundation for financial support to train abroad was coupled with a detailed questionnaire to 127 UK doctors who received an award following an interview process. RESULTS There were an average of 11 annual awards, with a mean value of £5,600 (range: £1,000-£15,000). Trainees (predominantly ST7 and ST8 level) were the main applicants (60%) and award winners (71%). The applications were for variable time periods (from 1 month to over 24 months) and to clinical units throughout the world, the favoured locations being America, Canada and Australia. The surgical specialties were the most sought after for training (77%). There were 4.7 times more male than female applicants. CONCLUSIONS This paper discusses the benefits of travelling fellowships as recorded by grant recipients, three-quarters of whom were applying their overseas clinical experience back in the National Health Service. However, the overall costs of travel frequently exceed doctors' expectations and the need for extra financial support for overseas fellowships is clear.
Aiding right-hand dominant surgeons in left-handed use of scissors
Authors: Al Hussainy HA , See A 
Published: February 2022

INTRODUCTION Skilled right-hand dominant (RHD) surgeons will have no problem cutting sutures with the right hand but most would struggle to cut with the left hand. We introduce and validate a new technique along with one published previously to improve left-hand dexterity in RHD operating theatre staff. METHODS Forty-seven RHD theatre staff from our trust's trauma and orthopaedic department were recruited for this study. Participants were first asked to cut sutures with the left hand using no particular technique (control group), followed by a new technique (new group) and then a previously published technique (Fang group). RESULTS The use of both techniques improved the participants' ability to cut with their left hand. Only 7 participants (15%) were able to cut the sutures under control conditions while 37 (79%) and 42 (89%) were successful using the new technique and the Fang technique respectively (new group: p=0.007, Fang group: p=0.0001). No significant difference was detected between the two techniques. CONCLUSIONS Both the new technique and the previously published technique to improve the dexterity of cutting sutures with the left hand in RHD surgeons are valid, effective and easy to master.

INTRODUCTION Contact dermatitis is an inflammatory skin disorder that can present as an acute, subacute or chronic condition. This review highlights the burden of allergic contact dermatitis for dental professionals as well as discussing its cellular mechanism, clinical features, common causative agents in dentistry and treatment options. FINDINGS There are two main types of contact dermatitis. Allergic contact dermatitis accounts for 20% of reported contact dermatitis cases while the remainder are due to irritant contact dermatitis. Allergic contact dermatitis is a type IV hypersensitivity reaction that affects 22-43% of dental professionals globally. There is limited literature on the impact of this condition on dental healthcare professionals. Moreover, with the increased and prolonged use of personal protective equipment (PPE) to prevent occupational transmission of SARS-CoV-2, more healthcare professionals are presenting with allergic contact dermatitis against their PPE. CONCLUSIONS Allergic contact dermatitis is a prevalent occupational skin condition that can affect all members of the dental team, especially with the increased use of PPE due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Dental professionals with signs and symptoms should seek relevant advice and reduce exposure to known allergens.
Autofocus of imaging ellipsometry
Authors: Guo Haiyan , Ibrahim Khaleel Mai , Chang Yia-Chung 
Published: February 2022

Through polarized light interacting with samples, imaging ellipsometry
is capable of aiding in the study of semitransparent biological cells
microscopically; it is also possible to find applications in
marker-free nondestructive disease diagnosis. Often a living
biological cell is sensitive to environmental conditions, and fast
measurement is preferred. Fast and accurate locating of the focal
plane is important for biosensing. By analyzing our previous published
through-focus ellipsometry images for S.
mutans cells on Au film, we have found an efficient method of
locating the focal plane position, i.e., through edge detection of
cells in ellipsometry images. The method is not sample-dependent. As
the edges are decided only by a sample’s own features, the method is
robust against noise or small shifts of images. It is also easy to use
without the need to choose a threshold value as in the Laplace
filtering method. The method can be further useful for biosensing
applications.

Apontamentos de pesquisas produzidas pelo NIPEEA como fluxos de reexistências de uma educação ambiental decolonial
Authors: Tristão Martha 
Published: February 2022

A educação ambiental decolonial será problematizada neste texto, a partir de algumas pesquisas desenvolvidas pelo Núcleo Interdisciplinar de Pesquisa e Estudo em Educação ambiental (NIPEEA),[1] como uma máquina desejante, que pode engendrar linhas de fuga em meio ao poder axiomático do dispositivo da colonialidade. A educação ambiental decolonial promove fluxos decolonizadores que se articulam para além dos espaçostempos[2] comunitários-escolares, pois se pode articular como máquina, uma máquina desejanteambiental[3] que engendra fluxos de naturezasculturas.[4] E são esses fluxos cartografados nas pesquisas, como movimentos de reexistências, que criam possibilidades e facilitam uma Educação ambiental decolonial.

[1] O NIPEEA foi criado em 2005 e emergiu da necessidade de integração entre projetos que envolvem ensino, pesquisa e extensão, com vistas à consolidação de um grupo formado por professores e alunos dos cursos de graduação, mestrado e doutorado em Educação, do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação (PPGE/Ufes) e de egressos interessados.
[2] Como uma imbricação entre os conceitos, Alves (2001) desenvolve uma concepção com a qual também dialogamos neste texto, que compreende o espaçotempo escolar como dimensão material do currículo, composto de relações múltiplas entre múltiplos sujeitos, com saberes múltiplos, que aprendem/ensinam, o tempo todo, múltiplos conteúdos e de múltiplas maneiras.
[3] Compreendemos a Educação ambiental como uma máquina desejante, em suas articulações com as comunidades-escolas. Assim, como uma imbricação entre os conceitos, chamamos de máquina desejanteambiental, essa Educação ambiental que reexiste para além das escolas.
[4] Buscamos, através dessa imbricação conceitual, mostrar a indissociabilidade entre as naturezas e as culturas, que são múltiplas e plurais em suas formas de existir.
Primary care providers’ experiences treating low back pain
Authors: Al Sad Sondos , Start Amanda R. 
Published: February 2022

Abstract

Context
Our original work addresses the biological sex impact on low back pain (LBP) management and prognosis in primary care settings. To our knowledge, our study is the first in the United States to evaluate the differences in clinicians’ approaches to LBP in the ambulatory setting specifically based on patient gender. Our findings suggest that there is a knowledge gap among primary care providers (PCPs) toward the potential impact of biological sex on LBP and a bias toward gender roles when counseling patients for home chores or occupational tasks. Further evaluation of this knowledge gap and its impact on LBP management and prognosis is recommended in US healthcare settings.

Objectives
This study aims to explore PCP experiences and practice patterns regarding LBP in females compared to males in US healthcare settings.

Methods
We utilized a cross-sectional study design and convenience sampling. Data were collected anonymously utilizing a 27-item online survey sent periodically via email to PCPs working in Ohio. We had 58 responses for analysis; data were analyzed utilizing bivariate and multivariate analyses.

Results
On average, approximately 9 out of 10 responding clinicians reported experiencing LBP. PCPs were not in agreement that LBP is different in women than men. Clinicians with a women’s health, osteopathic, or sport’s medicine background were more likely to agree that LBP is different in women than in men. PCPs were more likely to counsel female patients about pelvic floor exercises; however, their intake of present pelvic symptoms in LBP female patients is suboptimal. PCPs were more likely to counsel females for home chores than males, which is aligned with the perceived traditional gender roles among PCPs.

Conclusions
There may be a knowledge gap among PCPs toward the potential impact of biological sex on LBP and a bias toward gender roles when counseling patients for home chores or occupational tasks. Further investigation of this knowledge gap and counseling approaches is recommended to better bridge the gender disparity.
