Published: June 2022

Abstract
This study assessed the social knowledge, attitude, and perceptions (KAPs) on wastewater treatment, the technologies involved, and its reuse across different wastewater treatment areas in four regions of Tanzania. We used both quantitative and qualitative data collection methods in a household-level questionnaire (n=327) with structured and semi-structured questions, which involved face-to-face interviews and observation. Our results show that social KAPs surrounding wastewater treatment and reuse were sufficient based on KAP scores achieved from asked questions. However, the general knowledge on treatment technologies, processes, and reuse risks was still low. Of the respondents, over 50% approved using treated wastewater in various applications, while the majority (93%) were reluctant if the application involved direct contact with the water. Furthermore, over 90% of interviewees did not know the technologies used to treat wastewater and the potential health risks associated with its use (59%). Multivariate analysis of variance revealed significant differences (P&lt;0.05) in the KAPs on treated wastewater across different studied demographic variables, i.e., age, sex, and education level. Therefore, we recommend that more effort be spent on providing public education about the potential of wastewater treatment and existing technologies in order to facilitate their adoption for the community's and environment's benefit.

Authors: Olesen Kjeld , Meldal Morten , Breddam Klaus 
Published: June 2022

Abstract:
The relation between substrate length and activity as well as the P1 to P5 substrate preferences of CPO-Y has been investigated using a library of substrates based on intramolecularly quenched fluorescence. With respect to substrate length the enzyme displays a strong preference for longer peptides, i.e. a heptapeptide is hydrolyzed 52000-fold faster than a dipeptide. At all positions the enzyme displays a preference for hydrophobic side chains that decreases with the distance to the scissile bond, i.e. 3500-fold for P1 as compared
with 10-fold for P5 A peptide "optimized" in positions P1 throughout to P5 is hydrolyzed 6X 1017 -fold faster
than a "minimal" peptide.

OBJECTIVE
To investigate whether the association between insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease (CVD) differs by glucose tolerance status.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
We analyzed a nationwide sample of 111,576 adults without CVD at baseline, using data from the China Cardiometabolic Disease and Cancer Cohort Study. Insulin resistance was estimated by sex-specific HOMA of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) quartiles for participants with normal glucose tolerance, prediabetes, or diabetes, separately, and by 1 SD of HOMA-IR for the overall study participants. We used Cox proportional hazards models to examine the association between insulin resistance and incident CVD according to glucose tolerance status and evaluate the CVD risk associated with the combined categories of insulin resistance and obesity in prediabetes and diabetes, as compared with normal glucose tolerance. Models were adjusted for age, sex, education attainment, alcohol drinking, smoking, physical activity, and diet quality.

RESULTS
In participants with normal glucose tolerance, prediabetes, and diabetes defined by three glucose parameters, multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (95% CIs) for incident CVD associated with the highest versus the lowest quartile of HOMA-IR were 1.03 (0.82–1.30), 1.23 (1.07–1.42), and 1.61 (1.30–2.00), respectively; the corresponding values for CVD per 1-SD increase in HOMA-IR were 1.04 (0.92–1.18), 1.12 (1.06–1.18), and 1.15 (1.09–1.21), respectively (P for interaction = 0.011). Compared with participants with normal glucose tolerance, in participants with prediabetes, the combination of the highest HOMA-IR quartile and obesity showed 17% (95% CI 2–34%) higher risk of CVD, while the combination of the lowest two HOMA-IR quartiles and nonobesity showed 15–17% lower risk of CVD. In participants with diabetes, the upper two HOMA-IR quartiles exhibited 44–77% higher risk of CVD, regardless of obesity status. Consistent findings were observed for glucose tolerance status defined by different combinations of glycemic parameters.

CONCLUSIONS
Glucose intolerance status exacerbated the association between insulin resistance and CVD risk. Compared with adults with normal glucose tolerance, adults with prediabetes who were both insulin resistant and obese exhibited higher risks of CVD, while in adults with diabetes, the CVD risk related to insulin resistance remained, regardless of obesity.

<p> </p>
<p><strong>Objectives.</strong> The primary objective of this study was to determine sharps disposal practices among people with diabetes in a community care clinic. Secondary objectives were to identify patterns of sharps use and barriers to proper use.</p>
<p><strong>Methods. </strong>Surveys were distributed to patients at a community care clinic in person and via mail. Survey questions focused on how sharps are used and disposed of, the frequency of sharps changes, sharps disposal training, sharps identification, and confidence in sharps disposal. Participant demographics and diabetes profiles were also collected.</p>
<p><strong>Findings.</strong> Among 89 respondents, mean age was 60 years (range 29–93 years), 61.8% were Caucasian, 88.8% had type 2 diabetes, and 60.7% had had a diabetes diagnosis for ≤10 years, with diverse diabetes management methods; 57.3% did not receive or were unsure of sharps training, 25.8% discarded used sharps without a designated sharps container, and 37.1% properly disposed of sharps containers at sharps disposal facilities. Barriers to proper sharps practices included perceived safety of reusing sharps and waste with single use, cost, and the hassle of disposal. Those with prior sharps training were more likely to properly use and discard sharps; however, gaps in knowledge were still evident in this population.</p>
<p><strong>Conclusion. </strong>Results indicate gaps in proper sharps use and disposal knowledge among people with diabetes. Responses revealed sharps practices that are inconsistent with current federal and state regulations and are potentially dangerous for those handling improperly discarded sharps. Targeted sharps usage and disposal education resources are needed for individuals with and without prior sharps training. </p>

Published: June 2022

Introduction. Among the growing number of patients with chronic renal failure who need dialysis therapy or kidney transplantation, a significant proportion are people over 60 years old, making from 30 to 45% of all patients who need dialysis, according to various sources. The elderly age of the recipient contributes to the risk of developing graft dysfunction due to the presence of concomitant diseases that worsen the immediate and long-term results of transplantation. And the probability of receiving a kidney graft in elderly patients is significantly lower than in young recipients. One of the ways to solve this problem is to use kidneys from suboptimal donors.Material and methods. The analysis of clinical examinations, laboratory and instrumental test results obtained in 124 patients who underwent cadaveric kidney allotransplantation at the N.V. Sklifosovsky Research Institute for Emergency Medicine, including that from suboptimal donors, was carried out. Of these, 69 (55.6%) recipients aged 60 years and older were included in the main group (group 1), and 55 recipients younger than 60 years (44.4%) in the comparison group (group 2).Results. Kidney transplantation to elderly patients (aged 60 years and older), including from a suboptimal donor, provides a sufficiently high efficiency with a 1-year recipient survival rate of 98.6% and a functioning graft for 1 year in 75.4% of cases, which does not differ from the survival rate of younger recipients (98.2%), but is inferior by the case rate of keeping the graft functioning (91.9%). Meanwhile, the parameters characterizing the functional state of the transplanted organs that maintained their function for 1 year did not differ statistically significantly between elderly and younger recipients.Conclusions. The results of the study showed that kidney transplantation from suboptimal donors to patients of the older age group provides acceptable results with low mortality of recipients and a 1-year functioning of the graft in 75% of cases. This makes it possible to increase the availability of kidney transplantation for patients of the older age group and achieve better survival results, provided adequate selection of recipients and an objective assessment of the quality of transplanted organs.
Energy technical light output of scintillators – problems of assessment and an alternative method for their solution

Published: June 2022

The paper analyzes the problems that arise when assessing the energy technical light output by existing methods. A modern alternative method for assessing the energy technical light output of various scintillators produced by the Institute of Scintillation Materials of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine is described.
The possibility of evaluating the technical light output of any scintillator by relative comparison with a reference stilbene-based scintillator with a known technical light output is shown. The resulting ratio of responses is recalculated in ph/MeV by taking into account the technical light output of the reference scintillator, equal to 0.023, and the photon formation energy of a particular scintillator.
The estimation procedure is described. Expressions are given for calculating the values of the technical light yield of scintillators in stilbene units and in ph/MeV. The radioluminescence spectra of the tested scintillators are compared with the sensitivity spectra of the normalized and laboratory photodetectors.
The technical light yield of scintillators based on single crystals of NaI(Tl), CsI(Tl), CWO, BGO, p-terphenyl, anthracene, stilbene, and a plastic scintillator has been estimated. The values of the responses amplitudes ratio, the spectral normalization coefficients and the tested scintillators technical light output were obtained in stilbene units and in ph/MeV. To check the adequacy of the method the calculation of the tested inorganic scintillators absolute light output was carried out using the light collection coefficients values given in the literature.
It is shown that with an increase in the scintillators technical light output, in stilbene units, from 0.26 for BGO to 4.3 for NaI(Tl), their technical light output increases from 2500 ph/MeV to 33100 ph/MeV. A decrease in the scintillation photon energy from 2.988 (l = 415 nm) for NaI(Tl) to 2.214 (l = 560 nm) for CsI(Tl) also increases the technical light output of the latter to 35300 ph/MeV. The performed estimates accuracy of scintillators technical light output was 8%.
