Authors: Almutairi Athari , Jahan Saulat 
Published: July 2022

Background and Objectives Anxiety disorders are common but under-recognized psychiatric disorders. The objectives of the study were to determine the prevalence of anxiety and factors associated with anxiety during the Covid 19 pandemic among female medical students at Qassim University, Saudi Arabia. Methods An online cross-sectional survey, using a self-administered questionnaire, was conducted from August to December 2021. The questionnaire using Google Forms, submitted to the WhatsApp groups of female medical students, gathered personal data and information related to the Covid19 pandemic effects. Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) was used for measuring the severity of anxiety. Results Out of 278 invited students, 179 responded (response rate: 64.4%). Mean age of the respondents was 22.45 (±1.57) years, 89.9% were living with their parents, and 46.9% perceived their academic performance as ‘Good’. A total of 34 (19%) suffered from COVID-19, and 50.3% (n=90) of students reported family members affected by COVID-19, and 24.4% of the affected family members were hospitalized. The prevalence of anxiety among study participants was 26.8% (n=48); 31 (17.3%) participants had moderate and 17 (9.5%) had severe anxiety. The overall median anxiety score was 11 (IQR=21). In the younger age group (18-22 years), those who perceived their academic performance as ’poor or fair, and those living alone or with relatives and friends had higher anxiety scores, and the differences were statistically significant at p=0.042, p=0.018, and p=0.01, respectively. Conclusion Anxiety among female medical students during the COVID-19 pandemic was high. Mental health services including counseling and mental health education in universities are recommended.

Published: July 2022

Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the major non-communicable diseases worldwide. Interleukin-17 (IL-17, also known as IL-17A) is a key cytokine that links T cell activation to neutrophil mobilization and activation. In the cytokine storm, up-regulation of T-helper 17 cell cytokine IL-17A, and maybe also IL-17F, is primarily responsible for the immunopathology. This study aims to assess the Interleukin-17 A levels among the susceptibility of T2DM Iraqi diabetic patients as well as to determine the Interleukin-17 A levels among those patients and controls. A total of 70 participants 50 confirmed type 2diabetic patients and 20 apparently healthy individuals as controls were selected using a convenient sampling method. Evaluation of serum levels of IL-17A were performed using by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technique (ELISA) using a Human- IL-17A kit. (Elabscience Company /china). The results of the current study indicated that the levels of this interleukin were higher in the sera of patients with type 2 diabetes compared to healthy controls, although there were no significant differences, in patients (243.7233±38.45944), vs. controls (148.8930±11.79280), P= 0.135. We conclude that there may be a correlation between high levels of IL-17A and T2DM.
Design and implementation of transfer learned deep CNN with feature fusion for automated mammogram classification
Authors: Sridevi V. , Samath J. Abdul 
Published: July 2022

Radiologists frequently struggle to define mammography mass lesions, resulting in unneeded breast biopsies to eliminate suspicions, which adds exorbitant costs to an already overburdened patient and medical system..Existing models have limited capability for feature extraction and representation, as well as cancer classification. Therefore, we built deep Convolution neural networks based Computer-aided Diagnosis system to assist radiologists in classifying mammography mass lesions. Here, Two-view LASSO regression feature fusion and fine-tuned transfer learning network model VGG16 were applied for identification of mammogram cancer. First, two independent CNN branches are utilized to extract mammography characteristics from two different perspectives. Feature Extraction is performed by fine-tuning pre-trained deep network models VGG16 which extracts deep convolutional features. Second, the features of the VGG16 models are serially fused using LASSO regression. Lastly, the fused features are entered into the Fully Connected Layer for mammogram classification. The high accuracy of 95.24, senstitivity of 96.11% and AUC score of 97.95% of the proposed approach revealed that it should be used to enhance clinical decision-making.

Optimizing Big Data to Inform the Plausibility of Patient Debt
Authors: R. Díaz Sebastián , Bhatnagar Vikrant 
Published: July 2022

In 2014, states approving the expansion of Medicaid, a tenet of the Affordable Care Act, received monies to expand health care coverage. Using publicly available national datasets1, we mined data to explore the effects of expanded health care coverage on medical debt, and also to inform continued optimization of these data for health policy research. Between 2012 and 2015, there was a decrease in the percentage of individuals claiming medical debt. States adopting Medicaid expansion showed a 23.31% decrease, while states NOT adopting had a 19.01% decrease. Expansion of health coverage showed no statistical increase in the proportion of respondents with regards to the number of nights spent in a hospital in a year and the number of times visited a health professional in the past two weeks. Additionally, data illustrated significant findings in the proportion of individuals who responded in the affirmative to to the questions associated with cost of care and delay in care, trouble paying for medical bills, and losing coverage after pregnancy. While the data revealed substantive findings, our exploration detected two ways in which these publicly available datasets can be optimized for health policy research: include respondent’s state of residence, and specify codification of data with empty or null values. By including these two variables, health policy researchers can further leverage these invaluable datasets for informing impacts of Medicaid expansion, and possibly informing the plausibility of patient debt as a significant determinant of health. However, publicly available datasets were able to detect the positive ripples of Medicaid expansion within the first year of implementation. These findings can potentially impact public policy by strengthening the argument for expansion of coverage for individuals with scarce resources without drastically increasing the total financial cost of coverage, impacting the workflow of hospitals/clinics, and and limiting uncompensated care provided by hospitals/clinicians.

BALKAN SAVAŞLARI (1912-1913) VE SAVAŞTA TÜRK HAVA HAREKÂTI
Authors: YALÇIN Osman 
Published: July 2022

İtalya, 1911'de Kuzey Afrika'daki son Osmanlı toprakları olan Trablus'u işgal etti. İtalya, tarihte ilk kez askeri harekât kapsamında uçakları kullanan ülke oldu. Uçaklar ve balonlar bombalama, gözetleme ve propaganda faaliyetlerinde kullanıldı. Osmanlı ordusu da bu savaş sırasında ilk hava savunma görevini gerçekleştirdi. Örneğin Osmanlılar, uçakları düşürerek, pilotu esir aldılar ve hava savunmada ilkleri gerçekleştirdiler. Trablus Savaşı bitmeden önce Balkan devletleri Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'na savaş ilan ettiler.
Balkan Savaşları sırasında Balkan ülkelerinin ordularının envanterlerinde 30 civarında uçak, Osmanlı ordusunun ise 18 uçağı bulunuyordu. Balkan Devletleri Fransız ve Rus pilotlara hava faaliyetinde görev verdiler. Aynı şekilde Osmanlı Devleti de henüz yeterli pilotlara sahip değildi ve bu nedenle Alman ve Fransız pilot ve makinistleri hava kuvvetlerinde çalıştırdılar. Böylece Balkan Savaşları, Türk Hava Kuvvetlerinin ilk hava deneyimlerini yaşamasını sağladı.
Balkan Savaşları sırasında Türk Hava Kuvvetleri ilk defa olarak eğitim sistemini, harekât gücünü ve harekât planlamasında uygulamalar yaptı. Bu çalışmada, Balkan Savaşlarında Osmanlı ordularına tahsis edilen Osmanlı Hava Müfrezelerinin durumu ve harekâta esas faaliyeti incelenmiştir. Osmanlı orduları üç gruptan oluşuyordu. Bu ordular Edirne Savunma Kuvvetleri ile Doğu ve Batı Orduları idi. Bu çalışmada, Türk Havacılarının harekât ortamında ilk tecrübeleri incelendi. Çalışmada Osmanlı Arşiv Belgeleri, dönemin gazeteleri, dergileri ve ilgili literatürden yararlanılmıştır.
Sistemas infraestructurales como articuladores transfronterizos: planteamientos urbano-económicos para la intervención de la frontera entre Nicaragua y Costa Rica
Authors: Pérez Monge Luis Alonso 
Published: July 2022

El acelerado proceso de hiperglobalización ha afectado las dinámicas de las fronterizas geopolíticas, superando conflictos limítrofes históricos por medio de la articulación de las infraestructuras. El sistema mundial de transporte comercial busca optimizar y proponer nuevas rutas para aumentar la capacidad de carga, fijándose nuevamente en Centroamérica, donde la frontera entre Nicaragua y Costa Rica reúne las condiciones geográficas y territoriales ideales para desarrollar un nuevo paso comercial. Esta frontera recobra un interés geoestratégico, proyectándose como el sector ideal para desarrollar una conexión transoceánica, como en el siglo XIX, situación que derivó en conflictos fronterizos. Hoy esto se manifiesta como una nueva oportunidad para intervenir el territorio desde las redes de conectividad, bajo un nuevo concepto urbano, logrando una cohesión transnacional desde los sistemas infraestructurales.
The accelerated global process of hyperglobalization has affected the dynamics of geopolitical borders, overcoming historical border conflicts through the articulating capacity of infrastructures. The global commercial transport system seeks to optimize and propose new routes to increase cargo capacity, focusing again on Central America, where the border between Nicaragua and Costa Rica meets the ideal geographical and territorial conditions to develop a new commercial crossing, because the new Panama Canal cannot meet the growth in demand due to capacity and size. This border recovers a geostrategic interest, projecting itself as the ideal sector to develop a transoceanic connection, as in the 19th century, a situation that led to border conflicts. Today this is manifested as a new opportunity to intervene the territory from the connectivity networks, under a new urban concept, achieving a transnational cohesion from the infrastructural systems.
Análisis crítico al discurso de mercadeo urbano producido por Invest In Bogota entre 2006-2020: caso Bogotá Smart City
Authors: Torres Zapata José Fernando 
Published: July 2022

Mediante un análisis crítico a los discursos promocionales hechos por la agencia público-privada de promoción de Bogotá- Invest In Bogota (IIB), se busca evidenciar cómo la figura de la ciudad inteligente o Smart City, retoma las máximas de un neoliberalismo hegemónico global con el propósito de irradiar al exterior una imagen de ciudad que corresponda con el perfil de una ciudad que sobrepone la confianza en el inversionista como actor de desarrollo de la ciudad: una ciudad cosmopolita, una ciudad creativa, una ciudad amigable al inversionista, una ciudad donde el talento humano es competente y habla en inglés. Para el urbanismo es relevante analizar este proceso de promoción internacional, pues éste repercute en cómo se construye la ciudad tanto física como identitaria y culturalmente. Esta investigación, enmarcada dentro de una línea de estudios sociológicos de ciudad, profundiza en la tendencia contemporánea de percibir la ciudad como un producto de consumo y la creencia ideológica enraizada en los administradores urbanos que el crecimiento económico es camino seguro al bienestar de sus ciudadanos.
Through the present critical discourse analysis of Bogota ́s main marketing activities scripted by Invest In Bogota - city ́s marketing agency which promotes the city since 2006, the author shows how the idea of an “smart city” is being inspired by hegemonic global neoliberalism. The purpose of this marketing is to promote the city internationally as a friendly place to make business and reassure international investors that Bogota is a cosmopolitan and creative city where human resource is available, competent and speak the business language (English). The latter is relevant for current urbanism because urban marketing is now an important force that is transforming the image of the city and therefore shaping it physically, culturally and identitary. This research is part of the current new sociological studies and deepens into the contemporary trend of perceiving the city as a consumerism product, putting in the spotlight urban managers ́ belief that economic growth are a safe way to obtain general well-fare for its citizens.
Venezia y la Venicemarathon
Authors: Triches Massimo 
Published: July 2022

En los últimos años, la cuestión de la salud colectiva ha vuelto al primer plano de los debates que rigen la administración y la transformación de las ciudades, reafirmando la fuerte relación de interdependencia entre el bienestar del medio ambiente y el de los seres humanos, así como la necesidad del cuidado mutuo entre comunidad y territorio. En este contexto, Venecia representa un paradigma territorial de referencia para garantizar unos niveles adecuados de calidad urbana, estilos de vida, vitalidad social y salud colectiva. Al mismo tiempo, el Venicemarathon, además de desempeñar el papel de una potente marca territorial, puede leerse y diseñarse como una infraestructura para la salud, tanto de los habitantes como del territorio.
In recent years, the issue of collective health has returned to the forefront of debates governing the management and transformation of cities, reaffirming the strong relationship of interdependence between the well-being of the environment and that of human beings, as well as the need for mutual care between community and territory. In this context, Venice represents a territorial paradigm of reference to ensure adequate levels of urban quality, lifestyles, social vitality and collective health. At the same time, the Venicemarathon, in addition to playing the role of a powerful territorial brand, can be read and designed as an infrastructure for the health of both the inhabitants and the territory.
Novas tecnologias como forma de diminuição da segregação urbana: o uso de drones para mapeamento de favela na cidade de São Paulo
Authors: Dimitrov Stefania , Alvim Angelica Benatti 
Published: July 2022

For the past 30 years, public policies in São Paulo, the most populous city in Brazil, have recognized favelas as an integral part of the metropolis. However, historically, favelas are represented as empty areas on official maps. On the one hand, this situation reinforces the persistent invisibility of these areas, on the other hand, it demonstrates the lack of information for interventions. The traditional topographic surveys in loco or even the surveys generated from aerophotogrammetric refunds are deficient for the representation of the morphological complexity of the favelas. This article aims to analyze the potential and limitations of images captured by drones in favelas for the production of project material for interventions aimed at improving the inhabited environment. Case studies of surveys carried out in the Jardim Colombo and Antonico favelas, both members of the Paraisópolis Complex, the most populous favela in São Paulo, will be analyzed.
Nos últimos trinta anos, as políticas públicas de São Paulo, a mais populosa cidade do Brasil, têm reconhecido as favelas como parte integrante da metrópole. Ainda assim, historicamente, as favelas são representadas como áreas vazias nos mapas oficiais. Por um lado, essa situação reforça a persistente invisibilidade dessas áreas, por outro, demonstra a carência de informações para intervenções. Os levantamentos topográficos tradicionais in loco ou até mesmo os levantamentos gerados a partir de restituições aerofotogramétricas são deficitários para a representação da complexidade morfológica das favelas. Este artigo pretende analisar as potencialidades e limitações das imagens captadas por drones em favelas para a produção de material de projeto de intervenções que tenham como objetivo a melhoria do ambiente habitado. Serão analisados estudos dos casos de levantamentos realizados nas favelas Jardim Colombo e Antonico, ambas integrantes do Complexo Paraisópolis, a favela mais populosa de São Paulo.
