Authors: Lipeikaite Ugne , Amanyabyoona Raymond , Kamukama Asia , Katungisa Adonia 
Published: July 2022

This article provides practical insight on how public library programmes can deploy community needs assessment as a tool to engage the community into the development of library services and programmes for specific target groups. This approach contributes to the practice of needs-based library service development as well as demonstrates how community needs assessment can also serve as a library outreach mechanism to community members.
The community needs assessment study, described in this article, was done in Uganda in early 2021 by EIFL (Electronic information for libraries), Peer 2 Peer University, National Library of Uganda and Maendeleo Foundation. The study was aimed at developing a meaningful and sustainable digital literacy skills training for women and youth to be delivered via a nation-wide network of public and community libraries. The study is a part of a project “Digital skills and inclusion through libraries in Uganda”, which is funded by Belgium through the Wehubit Programme implemented by the Belgian development agency, Enabel.
The study consisted of interviews with librarians and meetings with library authorities and community members across the country. The study was used both to gain a deeper understanding of expectations and preferences of women and youth in relation to the digital skills and online content, and also to raise awareness about the upcoming training by the project at early stages.
In this article, we are sharing learnings from the process, as well as discussing how the findings were used to inform and shape the development of the digital literacy training programme.
Analyzing the Impact of Mobile App Engagement on Mental Health Outcomes: Secondary Analysis of the Unwinding Anxiety Program
Authors: Nardi William , Roy Alexandra , Dunsiger Shira , Brewer Judson 
Published: July 2022

Background
App-based interventions provide a promising avenue for mitigating the burden on mental health services by complimenting therapist-led treatments for anxiety. However, it remains unclear how specific systems’ use of app features may be associated with changes in mental health outcomes (eg, anxiety and worry).

Objective
This study was a secondary analysis of engagement data from a stage 1 randomized controlled trial testing the impact of the Unwinding Anxiety mobile app among adults with generalized anxiety disorder. The aims of this study were 2-fold: to investigate whether higher microengagement with the primary intervention feature (ie, educational modules) is associated with positive changes in mental health outcomes at 2 months (ie, anxiety, worry, interoceptive awareness, and emotional reactivity) and to investigate whether the use of adjunctive app features is also associated with changes in mental health outcomes.

Methods
We analyzed the intervention group during the stage 1 trial of the Unwinding Anxiety mobile app. The total use of specific mobile app features and the use specific to each feature were calculated. We used multivariate linear models with a priori significance of α=.05 to investigate the impact of cumulative app use on anxiety, worry, interoceptive awareness, and emotional regulation at 2 months, controlling for baseline scores, age, and education level in all models. Significant relationships between system use metrics and baseline participant characteristics were assessed for differences in use groupings using between-group testing (ie, 2-tailed t tests for continuous data and chi-square analyses for categorical data).

Results
The sample was primarily female (25/27, 93%), and the average age was 42.9 (SD 15.6) years. Educational module completion, the central intervention component, averaged 20.2 (SD 11.4) modules out of 32 for the total sample. Multivariate models revealed that completing >75% of the program was associated with an average 22.6-point increase in interoceptive awareness (b=22.6; SE 8.32; P=.01; 95% CI 5.3-39.8) and an 11.6-point decrease in worry (b=−11.6; SE 4.12; P=.01; 95% CI −20.2 to −3.1). In addition, a single log unit change in the total number of meditations was associated with a 0.62-point reduction in the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 scale scores (b=0.62; SE 0.27; P=.005; 95% CI −1.2 to −0.6), whereas a single log unit use of the stress meter was associated with an average of a 0.5-point increase in emotional regulation scores (Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire; b=0.5; SE 0.21; P=.03; 95% CI 0.1-0.9).

Conclusions
This study offers a clearer understanding of the impact of engagement with app features on broader engagement with the health outcomes of interest. This study highlights the importance of comprehensive investigations of engagement during the development of evidence-based mobile apps.

Published: July 2022

En el presente trabajo se realiza un estudio situado de las personas cuidadoras domiciliarias desde una mirada amplia, enmarcada en la economía del cuidado. Se analizan roles, funciones y problemáticas existentes desde de los pilares del diamante de bienestar: Estado, Mercado, Familia y Comunidad. Se realiza una aproximación a las características locales de las personas oferentes del servicio, a través de entrevistas semiestructuradas y la descripción de una política pública relacionada, el Programa de Cuidados Domiciliarios. Este programa promueve la inserción al mercado laboral principalmente de las mujeres en situación de vulnerabilidad socio económica. Según el estudio realizado y los antecedentes examinados, la situación laboral del sector presenta problemáticas que se replican desde antaño, por lo que se debería trabajar en el marco de un sistema de cuidados más amplio, así como revisar y monitorear el cumplimiento de los derechos laborales vigentes. Es preciso colocar en la agenda alternativas que permitan garantizar la prestación del servicio en condiciones dignas, promover la jerarquización de la actividad y visibilizar al cuidado como un problema público. Se observa una importante reproducción de desigualdades de género y clase, por lo que poder acceder a servicios gratuitos de cuidado resulta imprescindible para que las cuidadoras domiciliarias puedan disponer de tiempo para realizar otras actividades, principalmente estudiar y mantenerse en el mercado laboral.

AbstractWater is one of the basic needs in everyday life, the need for water is very much needed by humans. However, during the dry season, many areas in Indonesia, especially coastal areas, are experiencing a water crisis. One alternative to solving this water crisis problem is the desalination method. Desalination is the process of purifying sea water into fresh water by heating it, so that it becomes a solution to the needs of clean water for the community. The purpose of this research is to design and make a desalination system from seawater to fresh water using a hybrid energy source from solar panels and conventional energy sources equipped with a data logger as a monitoring device. In this research, a renewable energy-based hybrid desalination system is designed. The desalination system uses a water evaporator as a component to support the seawater evaporation process and the use of a hybrid system by utilizing energy generated by solar panels and conventional energy. The use of data loggers can help provide an overview of the performance and efficiency of the seawater desalination system. From the test results that have been carried out, the water evaporator desalination system produces an average of 43 ml / hour of desalination water. From the tests that have been carried out, the water evaporator desalination system has a successful percentage of reducing salt salinity levels by an average of 64.35% or 10 ppm per desalination.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To compare the attenuation of the medial coronoid process (MCP) in dogs with and without arthroscopically confirmed evidence of medial coronoid disease (MCD).

ANIMALS
The database at our institution was searched for cases with thoracic limb lameness, diagnosed with MCD by arthroscopic examination that had CT as part of their investigation and compared with a control group of elbow joints from cadavers euthanized for reasons unrelated to MCD. A total of 84 elbow joints were included that met these criteria.

PROCEDURES
Following CT, a standardized measurement of the MCP was obtained from apex to base and the mean attenuation, SD, and total area were recorded. A comparative measurement was obtained from the proximal radial cortex at the level of the nutrient foramen. Elbow joint arthroscopy was carried out using standard portals, and the modified Outerbridge score was (MOS) used to score elbow joint cartilage. Descriptive and inferential statistics were carried out using MLwiN and R.

RESULTS
Attenuation of the MCP was reduced in dogs with MCD compared with those with no MCD (P < .002). No significant differences were observed in the attenuation between categories of severity (MOS). There was good inter- and intraobserver agreement between measurements (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.89 and 0.95, respectively).

CLINICAL RELEVANCE
MCP attenuation is reduced in dogs with MCD compared with dogs with no evidence of MCD. This finding may be a useful tool for early detection of MCD, but there is no relationship with arthroscopic lesion severity.

Conclusions: The improvement of the functional status of chronic stroke patients after relatively short rehabilitation treatment was achieved, due to the addition to the standard rehabilitation treatment the program on the advanced technologically equipment.
Expectations of older workers regarding their exit from the labour market and its realization
Authors: Pertold Filip , Federičová Miroslava 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
The objective of the paper is to analyse the labour market behaviour of older workers, specifically cross-country differences in expectations regarding the exit from the labour market and subsequent realization. Using longitudinal Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) data and econometric analysis, we provide an international comparison of the situation of older workers in the Czech Republic with the other countries of Europe. The data show that although expectations about work activity at the age of 63 are quite similar in the Czech Republic from an international perspective, the work activity realized differs significantly between the Czech Republic and other countries. Our principal finding is that the Czech Republic has a high rate of unexpected retirements compared to all other European countries included in this analysis, even if we control for the socioeconomic background of respondents. The econometric analyses further show that up to about one-third of this difference can be explained by the lower retirement age set by the institutional environment in the Czech Republic, which is anticipated by employees at preretirement age. Conversely, the health status of older workers, and even the different allocation of employees to physically demanding occupations, does not have a significant impact on these cross-country differences in unexpected retirements.

Published: July 2022

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to substantiate theoretical foundations of the development of organizational and legal model of competency-based education as an important means of the transition to innovative economy-knowledge economy, digital intellectual economy. An important problem, as follows from the analysis, is that the current legislation in the field of education, its actual organizational and legal model does not provide necessary reproduction of social capital as a leading factor in the fourth industrial revolution. The main ways to solve this problem is the design of the content (the organizational model) of the sound academic background and its subsequent formalization – development of the organization and legal model of competency-based education. The proposed solutions to the problem, which will be presented to the leadership of education and science of Ukraine, can be useful also to the scientists from other European countries which have similar educational and cultural traditions.
Tax Procedures Between Transparency and Privacy: Trends in Legal Regulation and Practice in Slovenia
Authors: Kovač Polonca 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
Tax procedures aim at collecting public finances to cover societal needs but also protect taxpayers. Hereby, a collision between transparency and privacy occurs. The goal of the research was twofold; to identify the relation between transparency and privacy in theory and legislation, and to detect gaps between law by the book and practice in tax matters in Slovenia as an EU Member State. Analyses are therefore based on qualitative research methods attributed to legal-administrative context. A combined approach is applied, including literature review, normative, dogmatic, sociological, and axiological methods. The findings reveal that several national statutes should be clearer to enable consistent enforcement. The results of both theoretical and empirical research suggest a constant search for a balance between transparency and privacy. Yet, the former is more emphasised over time as the letter to increase the rule of law, inclusiveness, and efficiency as the most salient governance principles in tax procedures.

Published: July 2022

Abstract
Paraneoplastic syndromes, induced by an immunological cross-reaction or hormone/peptide secretion, are an atypical presentation of tumors. Some tumors, such as small cell lung cancer and bronchial carcinoid, can be adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secreting tumors. Less commonly, parotid acinic cell carcinoma can be ACTH-secreting tumor leading to Cushing’s syndrome. Few literature cases have described ACTH related paraneoplastic syndrome of parotid adenocarcinoma. Because of the rarity of the condition, little is known about the management and prognosis of this phenomenon. In this report, we highlighted the case of a 59-year-old male with a past medical history of parotid adenocarcinoma treated with surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy presented with clinical and biochemical signs of hyperaldosteronism. Abdominal ultra-sound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging showed hepatic mass. Liver biopsy with immunohistochemistry confirmed the presence of parotid adenocarcinoma secreting ACTH. He is on paclitaxel and carboplatin medication with good clinical response.
