Proximal Risk for Suicide: Protocol for an Ecological Momentary Assessment Study
Authors: Sharma Pravesh , Peck Robert , Sinicrope Anthony R , Pavey Thomas , Muehlenkamp Jennifer J 
Published: June 2022

Background
Suicide is a prevalent public health concern in the United States across all age groups. Research has emphasized the need to identify risk markers that prevent suicide along shorter timeframes, such as days to weeks. Furthermore, little has been done to explore the relative significance of factors that can predict short-term suicide risk or to evaluate how daily variability in these factors impacts suicidal ideation or behavior. This proposed project aims to identify risk factors that best predict near-time changes in suicidal ideation and examine potential interactions between these factors to predict transitions into suicidal thinking or behaviors.

Objective
The aim of this proposed study is threefold: (1) To identify which psychological risk factors are most strongly associated with proximal changes in suicide risk across days and weeks. (2) To evaluate theoretical assumptions of the Integrative-Motivational-Volitional Theory of Suicide. (3) To determine how disruptions in physiological arousal interact with theoretical mechanisms of risk to predict concurrent and short-term prospective increase in suicidal thoughts and behaviors.

Methods
A daily diary or ecological momentary assessment design will be utilized with 200 participants. Participants will complete 2 in-person visits separated by 3 weeks during which they will complete 3 brief daily assessments within their natural environments using the ilumivu research app on a smart device. Research will occur at the Mayo Clinic Health System (MCHS) Eau Claire site. Participants will be recruited through chart review and standard care delivery assessment.

Results
This manuscript outlines the protocol that will guide the conduct of the forthcoming study.

Conclusions
The proposed project aims to lead efforts using technological advances to capture microchanges in suicidal thinking/behavior over shorter timeframes and thereby guide future clinical assessment and management of suicidal patients. Results of this study will generate robust evidence to evaluate which risk factors predict proximal changes in suicidal ideation and behaviors. They will also provide the ability to examine potential interactions with multiple theoretically derived risk factors to predict proximal transitions into worsening suicidal thinking or behaviors. Such information will provide new targets for intervention that could ultimately reduce suicide-related morbidity and mortality.

Deep Denoising of Raw Biomedical Knowledge Graph From COVID-19 Literature, LitCovid, and Pubtator: Framework Development and Validation
Authors: Jiang Chao , Ngo Victoria , Chapman Richard , Yu Yue , Liu Hongfang , Jiang Guoqian , Zong Nansu 
Published: June 2022

Background
Multiple types of biomedical associations of knowledge graphs, including COVID-19–related ones, are constructed based on co-occurring biomedical entities retrieved from recent literature. However, the applications derived from these raw graphs (eg, association predictions among genes, drugs, and diseases) have a high probability of false-positive predictions as co-occurrences in the literature do not always mean there is a true biomedical association between two entities.

Objective
Data quality plays an important role in training deep neural network models; however, most of the current work in this area has been focused on improving a model’s performance with the assumption that the preprocessed data are clean. Here, we studied how to remove noise from raw knowledge graphs with limited labeled information.

Methods
The proposed framework used generative-based deep neural networks to generate a graph that can distinguish the unknown associations in the raw training graph. Two generative adversarial network models, NetGAN and Cross-Entropy Low-rank Logits (CELL), were adopted for the edge classification (ie, link prediction), leveraging unlabeled link information based on a real knowledge graph built from LitCovid and Pubtator.

Results
The performance of link prediction, especially in the extreme case of training data versus test data at a ratio of 1:9, demonstrated that the proposed method still achieved favorable results (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve >0.8 for the synthetic data set and 0.7 for the real data set), despite the limited amount of testing data available.

Conclusions
Our preliminary findings showed the proposed framework achieved promising results for removing noise during data preprocessing of the biomedical knowledge graph, potentially improving the performance of downstream applications by providing cleaner data.
Morality Policy and Unintended Consequences: China's “One-Child” Policy
Authors: Legge Jerome S. , Zhao Zhirong 
Published: June 2022

The ability of government to change human behavior by altering policy has severe limitations. Nowhere are these limitations more evident than in the area of fertility policy and sexual behavior. This paper considers the impacts of China's restrictive population policy with regard to two dependent variables. First, we attempt to explain the impact of the “one child” policy on population growth. Secondly, we examine the effect of the policy on an unintended consequence: the sex ratio, or the imbalance between males and women in Chinese society. We utilize a time series, cross-sectional (TSCS) research design for 31 Chinese provinces and municipalities for the years 1996–1999. We consider the Chinese experience within the theoretical framework of morality policy and argue that, while China has been remarkably successful in lowering the growth rate of its still escalating population, the policy has had the unanticipated and harmful effect of an increasingly unbalanced sex ratio. While many Chinese have become convinced of the advantages of smaller families, their preference for sons has created a gender imbalance in the marriage market which potentially may have severe consequences for the future of Chinese society. We discuss these implications and argue that given the strong Chinese preference for sons, especially in rural areas of China, the government is now facing a new challenge in its effort to achieve a gender-balanced society.
Educating and Training Japanese Government Officials: Current Trends and Policy Study Aspects
Authors: Oyama Tatsuo 
Published: June 2022

We explain the recruiting and promoting system for high-level Japanese government officials showing the trend of numbers of applicants for the recruitment examination, those who passed the examination, and also those who were employed by some ministries in the last 17 years. We describe the major characteristics of the promotion system for Japanese government officials. Educating and training Japanese government officials in the area of policy studies have been conducted in both university schools, governmental training centers, governmental schools and colleges. An education and training system for government officials needs to be developed so that each government official is equipped with a certain specialty and expertise. A formal system for evaluating individuals and programs has not been common in Japan, especially for evaluating individual work and contribution. We need to “invent” an evaluation system that will make the government officials’ decision-making system work more efficiently. Public and private universities, in particular, have been very active in creating many policy-related schools and departments in the last 20 years. Policy studies, which have been conducted in various schools in the university and government research institutes, are described in detail with their objectives, curriculums, and requirements.
Rural Poverty Alleviation in India: An Assessment of Public Programs
Authors: Ghuman B.S. , Chima Gurpinder 
Published: June 2022

India adopted a centralized development strategy after independence. The development strategy focusing on high growth postulated that the benefits of such growth would percolate down and would mitigate problems of income inequality, unemployment and poverty. Empirical evidence of the 1950s and 1960s, however, did not lend support to this ‘trickle down’ hypothesis. As a consequence social justice (i.e. equity) was added as another principal concern to the development strategy. In the 1970's, ‘Garibi Hatao’ (i.e. removal of poverty) was the buzzword among policy makers. With a view to solve the problems of unemployment and poverty, both the central and the state governments initiated a series of programs. The growing significance of poverty alleviation programs in planning evinced interest among scholars for poverty studies. The objective of the paper is to make an assessment of public programs for alleviating rural poverty. The paper is organized into five sections. In Section I, data and methodology used in the study have been explained. Public programs for rural poverty alleviation programs have been described in Section II. Section III deals with the extent of rural poverty across the states. In Section IV assessment of public programs for rural poverty has been made. Section V includes conclusions and policy recommendations.
Explosibility of nuclear graphite measured in a 1 m3 chamber
Authors: Poletaev N. L. 
Published: June 2022

Introduction. Nuclear graphite poses a threat due to the formation of the graphite dust – air mixture (GDAM) during the dismantling of decommissioned nuclear reactors. However, there is no clear answer to the question on the GDAM explosibility. A review of international studies suggests that GDAM is either inexplosive or its explosibility is weak (Phylaktou H.N. et al., 2015). In this paper, the authors advance arguments for the explosion safety of GDAM.Selected research result. The authors considered a well-known result of a study on the combustion of GDAM with an average particle size of 5 μm, the concentration of about 450 g/m3 in a 1.138 m3 chamber, and an ignitionsource made by Fr. Sobbe GmbH («Sobbe 10 kJ»). The maximum overpressure ΔPmax was 0.47 bar in the chamber, and it fitted the case of an explosive air suspension, according to EN 14034-3 (1 bar = 100 kPa).Interpretation of the research result. Pressure oscillograms were compared for the following two cases: the case of the maximum manifestation of the GDAM explosion hazard (ΔPmax = 0.47 bar; dP/dt|max = 3.8 bar/s) and the case of combustion of an ignition source in the absence of air suspension (ΔPmax = 0.027 bar; dP/dt|max = 2.7 bar/s). The comparison shows that the first 20 ms of a pressure change inside the chamber is mainly due to the combustion of the ignition source: the characteristic values ΔP = 0.03 bar and (dP/dt) ≈ 3.8 bar/s are close to the «Sobbe 10kJ» combustion index in the absence of GDAM. A further increase in ΔP is accompanied by the constant or sharply decreasing value of (dP/dt), which means a monotonous decrease in the flame velocity and proves the incombustibility of GDAM.Conclusions. Due to the smallness of ΔPmax, GDAM can be considered nonexplosive under normal atmospheric conditions. Dependency diagrams, relating the pressure of combustion products and its growth to time offer important information about the combustion of the air suspension in explosion chambers under the condition of a low dust explosion hazard.
The calculation of the regulated number of remote sensors of gas analyzers surrounding rectangular outdoor facilities at oil refineries
Authors: Samarin I. V. , Kryuchkov A. V. , Strogonov A. Yu. 
Published: June 2022

Introduction. The authors emphasize the importance of pre-explosive concentration sensors, that ensure the required fire safety (FS) at fire/explosion hazardous facilities of oil refineries. The authors substantiate the importance of maintenance procedures for first-level alarming devices that are part of automated process control systems (APCS) installed around outdoor facilities of refineries.Theoretical fundamentals. The authors argue that two counter-running subprocesses (destructive and creative (restorative)), that ensure fire safety, can describe a decrease in the efficiency of APCS subsystems in the FS monitoring, as well as their restoration at refinery facilities. The proper maintenance of gas detectors is presented as a discrete creative subprocess. The authors demonstrate a relation between the spatial location of sensors of stationary gas analyzers and the computability of their number, depending on the outdoor facility perimeter.Research results. To mathematically describe the maintenance procedure applied to stationary gas analyzers, the authors assess the dependence between the number of remote detectors, the perimeter of the rectangular outdoor unit, around which they are installed at a refinery, and the prescribed distance between the sensors.Conclusion. This assessment conveys the features of installation of gas detectors of any type depending on their classification based on physical methods of analysis. A conclusion is drawn that the perimeter data can help to calculate the number of rows for the installation of devices, the length of each row, the prescribed number of gas detectors in each row.

Authors: Golovanov V. I. , Kryuchkov G. I. , Strekalev A. N. , Komissarov A. A. , Tikhonov S. M. 
Published: June 2022

Introduction. The purpose of this work is to obtain experimental data on the numerical dependence between the strength characteristics of the most widely used grades of rolled structural metal products (including those featuring high heat resistance) and a critical increase in temperature.Materials and methods. As the subject of research we used specimens of rolled metal of the following strength classes: С255 (steel St3sp), С345 (steel 09G2S), С390 (steel 14G2), and rolled metal that had high heat resistance properties S355P (steel 06MBF). Small cylindrical specimens of type B, with M10 thread on heads and the working diameter of 4 mm were used to conduct the static tension and compression tests of mechanical properties. The procedure encompassed the heating of the specimens to the pre-set testing temperature at the rate of not more than 10 °C/min, their 15-minute exposure, and testing for static uniaxial tension/compression.Results and discussion. The results of the experimental research on mechanical properties of different widely used grades of rolled structural steel, including heat resistant rolled metal, subjected to the fire impact, are presented in the article. The data are presented in the form of diagrams used to make a quantitative assessment of the effect of elevated temperature on the strength properties of rolled structural metal under the impact of fire. This information can be contributed to the design and operation of structural metal constructions to develop analytical methods of identifying the fire-resistance limits of constructions made of structural metal.Conclusion. The new data on the fire resistance of metal products allow for a more reasonable building design, higher safety and resistance of buildings and structures to the effect of fire. A wider area of application of the whole range of rolled products featuring higher heat resistance will reduce metal consumption and construction costs, boost competitiveness and attractiveness of steel structures and their application in the construction of buildings and structures of various purposes.
Automatic and robotized firefighting systems at self-contained and low-maintenance facilities of the fuel and energy sector as an alternative to quick response teams
Authors: Nemchinov S. G. , Tsarichenko S. G. 
Published: June 2022

Introduction. An important factor of the proper operation of the whole fuel and energy sector is the fire safety of its process facilities, designated for the transportation and distribution of electricity (power stations, transformer units), oil products and combustible gas (compressors and main pumps). These items of equipment are self-contained low-maintenance facilities located in remote areas.Scope of problems. The fire safety of self-contained low-maintenance fuel and energy facilities, including power stations, compressors and main pumps, entails the involvement of the field forces that cannot ensure reliable and effective fire protection at all times, given the economic inexpediency of their establishment at these facilities or their remoteness from the facilities. The authors propose using automatic fire safety systems composed of robotized fire extinguishing units and water film heat shields that may operate in the stand-alone mode.Research results. The authors have proven the ability of water film heat shields and stationary robotized fire extinguishing systems to ensure the fire safety of self-contained low-maintenance fuel and energy facilities. The proposed items of equipment should operate in the autonomous control mode that ensures timely and sufficiently effective fire protection by reducing the thermal impact of outdoor fires without the involvement of quick response teams.Conclusions. Given the need to ensure fire safety, the use of self-contained and low-maintenance fuel and energy facilities equipped with automatic fire extinguishing units that have robotized water monitors and water film heat shields is an effective alternative to quick response teams.

Evaluating Key Logistics Capabilities for International Distribution Center Operators in Taiwan
Authors: LU CHIN-SHAN , YANG CHING-CHIAO 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
This study empirically evaluates key logistics capabilities for international distribution center operators. Based on factor analysis, four key logistics capabilities were identified: customer response, innovation, economic scale, and flexible operation and logistics knowledge. The findings suggest that customer response capability is perceived as the most important logistics capability, followed by flexible operation and logistics knowledge, innovation, then economic scale capability. Results also indicate that customer response capability differs significantly between public and private international distribution center operators. Theoretical and managerial implications of the research findings are discussed.

Authors: HIGGINSON JAMES K. , DUMITRASCU TUDORITA 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
This article examines aspects of short sea shipping on the Great Lakes, focusing on the current Great Lakes domestic cargo-carrying ship fleet. The age, capacity, and speed characteristics of the Great Lakes fleet are reviewed, and their implications on short sea shipping are discussed. We conclude that Great Lakes short sea shipping has it best potential for success in two areas: the bulk commodity market and short-distance Ro/Ro and container service. A case study illustrates some of the operational characteristics of successful short sea shipping, including the existence of a champion; simple, general-purpose loading and unloading; and few involved parties. Comparisons with European short sea vessels and experience are given.
Shipper-Carrier Relationships and their Effect on Carrier Performance
Authors: ZSIDISIN GEORGE A. , VOSS M. DOUGLAS , SCHLOSSER MATT 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
The transportation function is critical to efficient and effective logistical operations. In order to improve transportation performance, it may be necessary for firms to form closer relationships with their carriers. Unfortunately, there are few studies examining the nuances and outcomes of shipper-carrier relationships. The focus of this work is to delineate the levels of relational closeness found between shippers and carriers and to assess the effects of relational closeness on carrier performance. Based on data and expertise provided by The Hershey Company, a major U.S. confectionary corporation, this research utilizes qualitative and quantitative techniques to accomplish these tasks. Findings indicate that closer relationships between shippers and carriers have no effect on carriers' on-time performance but significantly influence carriers' willingness to commit assets to the shipper and accept loads during times of constrained transportation capacity.
Benchmarking European Rail Freight Transport Companies
Authors: WIEGMANS BART W. , DONDERS A. ROGIER T. 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
This article focuses on answering the following research question: How efficient are European rail transport companies compared with each other? When the focus in benchmarking is placed on “employee productivity performance,” Railcargo Austria and VR Cargo perform relatively well when compared with their competitors. RENFE and SNCF Fret are the worst performers. If the focus is on “sales productivity performance,” the best performers are Green Cargo, SBB, and VR Cargo. The worst performers are Trenitalia, CP, and SNCF Fret. The best in “railcar productivity performance” are Green Cargo, VR Cargo, and Railcargo Austria. The worst performers are SNCF Fret, Trenitalia, and RENFE. Analysis of effects, using a mixed model approach, showed that there are large differences among the companies. The overall trends were mostly not significant, but the distributions of the signs of the trends (+ or -) are quite plausible and significant. Two main conclusions arise: First, the inputs (employees, locomotives, and railcars) have been reduced over the years. Second, the partial productivity performances (tons/railcar, tonkms/railcar, sales/railcar, employees/railcar, sales/ton, sales/employee, sales/tonkm, and tonkms/employee) have improved over the years. Overall, less freight is transported more efficiently.
