Factors influencing stress urinary incontinence in elite female athletes
Authors: Opara Józef A. , Socha Teresa , Poświata Anna 
Published: June 2022

IntroductionPractising high-impact sports, especially on a competitive level, has been identified nowadays as one of the risk factors of stress urinary incontinence (SUI). The purpose of our study was to verify the effect of selected factors, like age, parity, the intensity of trainings, achieved sports level, type of discipline, or the duration of sports experience, on SUI symptoms in a group of elite female athletes.MethodsThe study involved 112 elite women athletes: 55 practising running and 57 practising cross-country skiing. A combined questionnaire, which included Urogenital Distress Inventory, Incontinence Impact Questionnaire, King’s Health Questionnaire, and own career development questionnaire, was used as a research tool.ResultsThe prevalence of SUI in the studied female elite athletes was high (62.5%). No statistically significant differences regarding SUI symptoms were found between the group of skiers and the group of runners. A relationship between SUI occurrence and childbirth, but not age, was observed. A statistically significant relationship was revealed between the duration of sports practice and SUI occurrence (higher occurrence in the less experienced group). However, SUI occurrence did not correlate with the achieved sports level. A higher subjective assessment of the trainings intensity was correlated with a higher occurrence of SUI symptoms.ConclusionsThe occurrence of SUI in female runners and skiers depends on a history of giving birth, length of practising sports, and training intensity; it does not depend on age or the sports class.

Abstract. Particulate matter (PM) is the air pollutant that causes the greatest deleterious health effects across the world, so PM is routinely monitored within air quality networks, usually in respect to PM mass or number in different size fractions. However, such measurements do not provide information on the biological toxicity of PM. Oxidative potential (OP) is a complementary metric that aims to classify PM in respect to its oxidising ability in the lungs and is being increasingly reported due to its assumed relevance concerning human health. Between June 2018 and May 2019, an intensive filter-based PM sampling campaign was conducted across Switzerland in five locations, which involved the quantification of a large number of PM constituents and the OP for both PM10 and PM2.5. OP was quantified by three assays: ascorbic acid (AA), dithiothreitol (DTT), and dichlorofluorescein (DCFH). OPv (OP by air volume) was found to be variable over time and space: Bern-Bollwerk, an urban-traffic sampling site, had the greatest levels of OPv among the Swiss sites (especially when considering OPvAA), with more rural locations such as Payerne experiencing a lower OPv. However, urban-background and suburban sites experienced a significant OPv enhancement, as did the rural Magadino-Cadenazzo site during wintertime because of high levels of wood smoke. The mean OP ranges for the sampling period were 0.4–4.1 nmolmin-1m-3, 0.6–3.0 nmolmin-1m-3, and 0.3–0.7 nmol H2O2 m−3 for OPvAA, OPvDTT, and OPvDCFH, respectively. A source allocation method using positive matrix factorisation (PMF) models indicated that although all PM10 and PM2.5 sources that were identified contributed to OPv, the anthropogenic road traffic and wood combustion sources had the greatest OPm potency (OP per PM mass) on average. A dimensionality reduction procedure coupled to multiple linear regression modelling consistently identified a handful of metals usually associated with non-exhaust emissions, namely copper, zinc, iron, tin, antimony, manganese, and cadmium, as well as three specific wood-burning-sourced organic tracers – levoglucosan, mannosan, and galactosan (or their metal substitutes: rubidium and potassium), as the most important PM components to explain and predict OPv. The combination of a metal and a wood-burning-specific tracer led to the best-performing linear models to explain OPv. Interestingly, within the non-exhaust and wood combustion emission groups, the exact choice of component was not critical; the models simply required a variable representing the emission source or process to be present. This analysis strongly suggests that anthropogenic and locally emitting road traffic and wood burning sources should be prioritised, targeted, and controlled to gain the most efficacious decrease in OPv and presumably biological harm reductions in Switzerland.

Abstract. Human-controlled reservoirs have a large influence on the global water cycle. While global hydrological models use generic parameterizations to model dam operations, the representation of reservoir regulation is still lacking in many Earth system models. Here we implement and evaluate a widely used reservoir parametrization in the global river-routing model mizuRoute, which operates on a vector-based river network resolving individual lakes and reservoirs and is currently being coupled to an Earth system model. We develop an approach to determine the downstream area over which to aggregate irrigation water demand per reservoir. The implementation of managed reservoirs is evaluated by comparing them to simulations ignoring inland waters and simulations with reservoirs represented as natural lakes using (i) local simulations for 26 individual reservoirs driven by observed inflows and (ii) global-domain simulations driven by runoff from the Community Land Model. The local simulations show the clear added value of the reservoir parametrization, especially for simulating storage for large reservoirs with a multi-year storage capacity. In the global-domain application, the implementation of reservoirs shows an improvement in outflow and storage compared to the no-reservoir simulation, but a similar performance is found compared to the natural lake parametrization. The limited impact of reservoirs on skill statistics could be attributed to biases in simulated river discharge, mainly originating from biases in simulated runoff from the Community Land Model. Finally, the comparison of modelled monthly streamflow indices against observations highlights that including dam operations improves the streamflow simulation compared to ignoring lakes and reservoirs. This study overall underlines the need to further develop and test runoff simulations and water management parameterizations in order to improve the representation of anthropogenic interference of the terrestrial water cycle in Earth system models.

Abstract. Climate change affects precipitation phase, which can propagate into changes in streamflow timing and magnitude. This study examines how the spatial and temporal distribution of rainfall and snowmelt affects discharge in rain–snow transition zones. These zones experience large year-to-year variations in precipitation phase, cover a significant area of mountain catchments globally, and might extend to higher elevations under future climate change. We used observations from 11 weather stations and snow depths measured from one aerial lidar survey to force a spatially distributed snowpack model (iSnobal/Automated Water Supply Model) in a semiarid, 1.8 km2 headwater catchment. We focused on surface water input (SWI; the summation of rainfall and snowmelt on the soil) for 4 years with contrasting climatological conditions (wet, dry, rainy, and snowy) and compared simulated SWI to measured discharge. A strong spatial agreement between snow depth from the lidar survey and model (r2 = 0.88) was observed, with a median Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) of 0.65 for simulated and measured snow depths at snow depth stations for all modeled years (0.75 for normalized snow depths). The spatial pattern of SWI was consistent between the 4 years, with north-facing slopes producing 1.09–1.25 times more SWI than south-facing slopes, and snowdrifts producing up to 6 times more SWI than the catchment average. Annual discharge in the catchment was not significantly correlated with the fraction of precipitation falling as snow; instead, it was correlated with the magnitude of precipitation and spring snow and rain. Stream cessation depended on total and spring precipitation, as well as on the melt-out date of the snowdrifts. These results highlight the importance of the heterogeneity of SWI at the rain–snow transition zone for streamflow generation and cessation, and emphasize the need for spatially distributed modeling or monitoring of both snowpack and rainfall dynamics.
Modelling the mass budget and future evolution of Tunabreen, central Spitsbergen
Authors: Oerlemans Johannes , Kohler Jack , Luckman Adrian 
Published: June 2022

Abstract. The 26 km long tidewater glacier Tunabreen is the most
frequently surging glacier in Svalbard, with four documented surges in the
past 100 years. We model the evolution of this glacier with a minimal
glacier model (MGM), in which ice mechanics, calving, and surging are
parameterized. The model geometry consists of a flow band to which three
tributaries supply mass. The calving rate is set to the mean observed value
for the period 2012–2019 and kept constant. For the past 120 years, a
smooth equilibrium line altitude (ELA) history is reconstructed by finding
the best possible match between observed and simulated glacier length. There
is a modest correlation between this reconstructed ELA history and an ELA
history based on meteorological observations from Longyearbyen. Runs with and without surging show that the effect of surging on the
long-term glacier evolution is limited. Due to the low surface slope and
associated strong height–mass-balance feedback, Tunabreen is very sensitive
to changes in the ELA. For a constant future ELA equal to the reconstructed
value for 2020, the glacier front will retreat by 8 km during the coming
100 years. For an increase in the ELA of 2 m a−1, the retreat is
projected to be 13 km, and Tunabreen becomes a land-terminating glacier
around 2100. The calving parameter is an important quantity: increasing its value by 50 % has about the same effect as a 35 m increase in the ELA, with the
corresponding equilibrium glacier length being 17.5 km (as compared to 25.8 km in the reference state). Response times vary from 150 to 400 years, depending on the forcing and on
the state of the glacier (tidewater or land-terminating).
“If You Want Anything, You Have to Fight for It”
Authors: Willis Cameron 
Published: June 2022

For four days in October 1932, during the height of the Great Depression, prisoners at Kingston Penitentiary revolted. They took control of their workshops and brought the convict labour regime to a halt, until the guards and militia violently regained control. This revolt was the culmination of more than a year of organizing and collective actions. Prisoners wrote manifestos, participated in work refusals, elected representatives, and developed a sophisticated critique of the conditions of their incarceration and the penitentiary administration. Using a unique collection of archival documents, this article closely examines the complaints, criticisms, fears, hopes, and frustrations of the incarcerated, whose demands and goals are crucial for understanding how and why the prisoner revolt unfolded as it did. I argue that the prisoners at Kingston Penitentiary, by striking and organizing to assert their dignity, democratically organized their lives and ensured a “fair deal” should be considered part of the Depression-era protests of the unemployed, imprisoned, and marginalized.
Pendant quatre jours en octobre 1932, au plus fort de la Grande Dépression, les prisonniers du Pénitencier de Kingston se sont révoltés. Ils ont pris le contrôle de leurs ateliers et ont mis un terme au régime du travail des condamnés, jusqu’à ce que les gardes et les miliciens reprennent violemment le contrôle. Cette révolte a été l’aboutissement de plus d’un an d’organisation et d’actions collectives. Les détenus ont rédigé des manifestes, participé à des refus de travail, élu des représentants et élaboré une critique sophistiquée des conditions de leur incarcération et de l’administration pénitentiaire. À partir d’un ensemble unique de documents d’archives, cet article examine de près les plaints, les critiques, les peurs, les espoirs et les frustrations des incarcérés, dont les revendications et les objectifs sont essentiels pour comprendre comment et pourquoi la révolte des prisonniers s’est déroulée comme elle était. Je soutiens que les prisonniers du Pénitencier de Kingston, en faisant la grève et en s’organisant pour affirmer leur dignité, ayant organisé démocratiquement leur vie et assuré un « accord équitable » devraient être considérés comme faisant partie des manifestations des chômeurs, emprisonnés et marginalisés de l’époque de la Dépression.
The emerging Nazi capitalist anti-intellectualism and the role of scientific, philosophical, artistic, and mystical knowledge as critical and creative resistance in the social diffusion of knowledge
Authors: Galeffi Dante Augusto 
Published: June 2022

It is a reflection of the emerging phenomenon of the anti-intellectualism ideology that has become the hegemonic political narrative of the extreme right worldwide at the present time and, particularly in Brazil, it has gained a space that has taken over the discourse of established power, which requires a careful and polylogical investigation of the genesis of the political use of social networks that propagate the Nazi capitalist discourse and promote what can be called “psychopower” and “psychopolitics”, according to the philosopher Byung-Chul Han, seeking to thereby unmask the devices for the production of truths based on a dogmatic denial of science and traditional and available human knowledge. The text follows the flow of a provocative and questioning oral exposition based on the radical critique of any reduction of reality to monological and negationist discourses in relation to publicly examined and recognized knowledge. The unveiled character of what has been called here integrated world Nazi capitalism requires an attitude of combating any reduction of reality to the perspective of the absolute sovereign, which also means a radical critique of the anti-intellectualism that has been growing disproportionately in the power discourse of those who are not yet human beings, but machines desiring necropower and in favor of eliminating and destroying the "others", contrary to what makes the human being a polyethic curator of the world of life in its totality, and in which nothing is left out, nothing can be excluded.
Early diagnosis of pigmentary glaucoma with pseudo-normal pressure in a patient after radial keratotomy (case study)

Published: June 2022

The article describes a clinical case of diagnostics and diagnosis of pigmentary glaucoma with pseudo-normal pressure in a patient who had previously underwent radial keratotomy (RKT).This case is interesting in that the detection of pigmentary glaucoma can be significantly complicated by a falsely low level of intraocular pressure (IOP) in the myopic eye after previous RKT and secondary hypermetropic shift, combined with the difficulty of an in-depth ophthalmoscopic assessment of the state of the optic nerve head in myopia, as well as perimetric study due to keratotomy scars. Tonometric IOP readings in such eyes should be considered carefully and supplemented with examination of other characteristic clinical signs of pigmentary glaucoma. This would help establish the diagnosis early and timely prescribe pathogenetic treatment.

A perspective on 21st design challenges facing the urgency of solutions for global sustainability
Authors: Maia Manuela 
Published: June 2022

Before the accelerated transformation of reality, we question the human role in the technological context, placing the need of thinking about the importance of intrinsically human competences. In the scope of design, a field of practice and academic discipline, the challenge for the profession and the future education is huge. Above all, these challenges have to do with large scale and with processes requiring the ability to deal with more complex conceptual frameworks, with a set of context dimensions involving economic, ecological, social, cultural, and political issues of societies in permanent change. The design community recognizes the value of designer's multidisciplinary skills and the ability to lead processes involving large socio-technical systems. However, today the designer faces the challenge of multidisciplinary working teams where skills go far beyond their traditional abilities. The thinking and practice of design reveals a set of core values ​​and virtues of the designers that allows a strategic positioning of these professionals in the complex problem-solving context. Nevertheless, designers will have an increasingly demanding role in creating products, services and experiences which mean a profession under pressure to evolve towards a more complex activity requiring new general and specialized skills. The objective of our reflection is about designer’s competencies transition demand, an imperative requiring technological and management skills and leadership capacity on sustainable solutions complex processes. Despite this recognition, designers must be prepared about collaboration and cooperation skills, a necessity more and more in tension with a reality where the whole potential of design to deal with complexity remains unaware.
Design community reflects about designer’s strategic value for facing global challenges and points out the complexity approach as a requirement of design education in the future. Considered a condition for design expansion this concern is also revealed in design education research contributions. This contextual disposition makes possible to regard an alignment about a direction to pursue.
This paper presents a reflection about this problematic field which intends to be a contribution to understand how design discipline can evolve meeting the designer’s community recognition of the necessity of a set of updated critical dimensions for design activity. This reflection looks at the design community before a strong demand for an evolution, pushing to a design education deep transformation. This kind of evolution for design may occur first in the professional practice and will be primarily caused, in our perspective, by the desirable and the unavoidable impact on design processes of a design community's new mindset about core principles.
Emergencias simbólicas en la Plaza Dignidad del “18-O” chileno. Representaciones socioespaciales y re-significaciones del “Negro Matapacos” y la bandera Wenüfoye
Authors: Pacheco Habert Guillermo , Torres-Alruiz María Daniela , Cuevas Vargas Rodrigo 
Published: June 2022

En este artículo buscamos dilucidar las representaciones socio-espaciales del Negro Matapacos y bandera Wenüfoye que estuvieron asociadas a las prácticas de reapropiación política y simbólica de la Plaza Dignidad, y que emergieron con una fuerza particular durante el 18 de octubre de 2019 (18 O). Revisamos el origen de los dos símbolos examinados y sus procesos de resignificación, mediante un análisis de contenido general de los discursos encontrados en fuentes secundarias (prensa digital, blogs y redes sociales). Además de la participación en foros virtuales, conversaciones informales con actores relevantes para el proceso, recorridos realizados en la plaza Dignidad y otras plazas del país. Nuestra hipótesis es que estos símbolos representan identidades periféricas emergentes que, al hacerse presentes en la ocupación, reapropiación y significación colectiva de la Plaza Dignidad, evidencian la crisis del proyecto político de nación monocultural, y su hegemonía identitaria moderna consecuente. Concluimos que la crisis chilena desde el 18-O ha abierto un espacio para transformaciones estructurales, donde las emergencias simbólicas contienen representaciones socio-espaciales que se producen de múltiples identidades periféricas, rurales, urbanas, indígenas y otras.

Aim:- To evaluate and compare the effect of thread geometry i.e. V-shape, Square and Buttress under 100 N force on peri-implant bone via Finite Element. Materials & Method:- Three virtual models was prepared having implants with different thread designs:- V– thread design Model I; Square thread design Model II and Buttress thread design Model III. Loading points were marked on the superstructure (crowns virtually fabricated for each of the abutments) and 100N of vertical and oblique forces at an angle of 45º were applied. ANSYS software was used for qualitative and quantitative stress analysis. Maximum von Mises stresses and strain values at the implant surface and abutment were recorded. Results:- Highest displacement was seen in square shaped thread designed implants (0.46) followed by buttress shaped and then V-shaped thread design of implants (0.056). The mean stress for V-shaped design implants, square shaped design implants and buttress design implants were 6.12, 6.18 and 6.11 respectively. Highest difference in stress on abutment was 33.84, 32.59 and 20.53 in V shaped, square shaped and buttress shaped designs respectively. Conclusion:- Square shape thread design has biomechanical advantages in terms of reducing stress concentration and microstrain in bone.
