description: Background: Informed by recent studies demonstrating the central role of plasma HIV-1 RNA viral load (VL) on HIV transmission, interventions to employ HIV antiretroviral treatment as prevention (TasP) are underway. To optimize these efforts, evidence is needed to identify factors associated with both non-suppressed VL and HIV risk behaviours. Thus, we sought to assess the possible role played by exposure to correctional facilities on VL non-suppression and used syringe lending among HIV-seropositive people who use injection drugs (PWID). Methods We used data from the ACCESS study, a community-recruited prospective cohort. We used longitudinal multivariate mixed-effects analyses to estimate the relationship between incarceration and plasma HIV-1 RNA > 500 copies/mL among antiretroviral therapy (ART)-exposed active PWID and, during periods of non-suppression, the relationship between incarceration and used syringe lending. Results Between May 1996 and March 2012, 657 ART-exposed PWID were recruited. Incarceration was independently associated with higher odds of VL non-suppression (Adjusted Odds Ratio [AOR] = 1.54, 95% Confidence Interval [95% CI]: 1.10, 2.16). In a separate multivariate model restricted to periods of VL non-suppression, incarceration was independently associated with lending used syringes (AOR = 1.81, 95% CI: 1.03, 3.18). Conclusions The current findings demonstrate that incarceration is associated with used syringe lending among active PWID with detectable plasma HIV-1 RNA. Our results provide a possible pathway for the commonly observed association between incarceration and increased risk of HIV transmission. Our results suggest that alternatives to incarceration of non-violent PWID and evidence-based combination HIV prevention interventions for PWID within correctional facilities are urgently needed.

description: This work concerns Sottomarina, a village located in the Venetian lagoon, and it specifically refers to the demolished Church of San Martin Bishop. The idea of restoring the central area of the village where the Church rised has long been the object of discussion on the part of local authorities. The village of Sottomarina is one of the subjects recently investigated by our research group at the Department of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering of the University of Padua. The centre of the ancient village of Sottomarina in the Venetian lagoon was thought as an opportunity to reconfigure the lost unity of this symbolic and representative place, custodian of its memory and identity. The order and hierarchy of the elements that characterized the form of this old place have been reconsidered. The intent to regenerate the area and the observations about the relationship between the village and the Venetian lagoon lead to recognize in the demolished Church of Saint Martin Bishop a unique opportunity which allows to recover rituals and connections from the past. The working method is based on the belief that, in the study of urban morphology, is basic to analyse the history of the city, clarifying the relationship between permanent structures and temporary ones. The history becomes an indispensable tool to know the deep reasons of the urban structure which is the memory and the image of the community. The methodology looks at the city as a product of functional systems (political, social, economic), but overall contemplates the urban form as a result of its spatial structure. The life of the urban form is investigated in its physical specificity, the only one able of giving reason of its special nature over every social, economic and political aspect, certainly important but not sufficient.

description: Background: Decision aids are evidence-based tools designed to inform people of the potential benefit and harm of treatment options, clarify their preferences and provide a shared decision-making structure for discussion at a clinic visit. For patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are considering methotrexate, we have developed a web-based patient decision aid called the ANSWER (Animated, Self-serve, Web-based Research Tool). This study aimed to: 1) assess the usability of the ANSWER prototype; 2) identify strengths and limitations of the ANSWER from the patient’s perspective. Methods: The ANSWER prototype consisted of: 1) six animated patient stories and narrated information on the evidence of methotrexate for RA; 2) interactive questionnaires to clarify patients’ treatment preferences. Eligible participants for the usability test were patients with RA who had been prescribed methotrexate. They were asked to verbalize their thoughts (i.e., think aloud) while using the ANSWER, and to complete the System Usability Scale (SUS) to assess overall usability (range = 0-100; higher = more user friendly). Participants were audiotaped and observed, and field notes were taken. The testing continued until no new modifiable issues were found. We used descriptive statistics to summarize participant characteristics and the SUS scores. Content analysis was used to identified usability issues and navigation problems. Results: 15 patients participated in the usability testing. The majority were aged 50 or over and were university/college graduates (n = 8, 53.4%). On average they took 56 minutes (SD = 34.8) to complete the tool. The mean SUS score was 81.2 (SD = 13.5). Content analysis of audiotapes and field notes revealed four categories of modifiable usability issues: 1) information delivery (i.e., clarity of the information and presentation style); 2) navigation control (i.e., difficulties in recognizing and using the navigation control buttons); 3) layout (i.e., position of the videos, text, diagrams and navigation buttons); 4) aesthetic (i.e., the colour, look and feel of the online tool). Conclusions: Although the SUS score indicated high usability before and after major modification, findings from the think-aloud sessions illustrated areas that required further refinement. Our results highlight the importance of formative evaluation in usability testing.

description: Dehumanisation of the public urban spaces, as a side effect of the hypertrophied transport system, has been inherited from the 20th century (often regarded as the age of automobiles) and has manifested in our streets. Precisely the streets have become the main battleground of ideas in search for paths to sustainable future. The concept of street pedestrianisation has boomed in the western world since the 6th decade of the last century and recently, due to the pressing ecological issues, it has received even more attention in the discourse of the city design. Pedestrianisation has been used in a number of cities but with mixed success. Newly created pedestrian routes often became inseparable part of the re-imagined identity of the city, but other times these spaces faced further decline and the idea ended in failure. This report offers an overview of the recent research on the subject of pedestrianisation and the range of criteria that the different fields of research use in analysing it. A review of successful and unsuccessful examples is used to identify if the urban-architectural approach should be used in the interdisciplinary research of the pedestrianisation to provide a robust understanding of this process. Identifying and adopting the relevant criteria of pedestrianisation could not only predetermine the successful outcomes but also expect a wider support of the public to the idea of sustainable future city.

Получен хороший функциональный результат. Клинический пример демонстрирует возможность острой артериальной непроходимости за счет сдавления подколенной артерии отломком большеберцовой кости. Анализ развившейся ишемии при скелетном вытяжении и быстрое восстановление кровотока в конечности сразу после изменения положения голени позволяют описать механизм сдавления артерии. Выводы. Острая артериальная непроходимость при переломах проксимальной трети большеберцовой кости может быть устранена изменением положения конечности с переводом ее со скелетного вытяжения на аппарат наружной фиксации. Соблюдение принципа Damage Control Orthopaedics с ранним наложением аппарата наружной фиксации позволяет устранить источник, поддерживающий травматический шок, улучшить уход за больным, предупредить и устранить нарушения кровообращения в конечности. Аппарат наружной фиксации как хирургическое средство ортопедического профиля может быть эффективным для лечения сосудистых осложнений перелома.
title: Nested networks

description: The concept of Nested Networks is proposed to address the interplay between different levels of scale in the analysis of urban form. Focusing on processes of tissue formation, the internal configurations of buildings or building compounds are considered as local, spatial networks nested within a global host network of urban space. Two case studies within the historical core of Zurich investigate how such configurations of local, spatial networks have been affected by shifts in centrality within the superordinate host network, and how the reshuffling of local configurations has in turn allowed adaptations of the superordinate network. The proposed approach draws on a combination of Process typology and Space Syntax. In view of the results, the potential of a more thorough cross-fertilization of these two strands of urban morphology is discussed.

description: The natural evolution of urban forms over time is a key issue in urban morphology. With the rapid development of 7quantitative analytical tools and new urban data, new research potential has emerged. This study attempts to develop an analytical framework for evaluating the urban maturation process. Using street blocks as the analytical unit, this study integrates the spatial design network analysis (sDNA), Spacematrix, Points-of-Interests (POIs), and Open Street Map (OSM) in the geographical information system (GIS) to calculate the urban maturation index in the context of big data. Shanghai, a metropolitan city with a long urbanisation history and a series of new towns, was selected as the case study. The validation of this new index was first achieved by comparing this maturation index between several districts located in the city centre and suburban new towns. Insights in this direction would help generate new urban design guidance for creating vibrant urban places. This study also aimed to introduce new quantitative thinking into the previously qualitative and intuition-based fields of urban morphology and urban design.
title: Mapping transitional urban forms from afar

description: Lack of data often complicates research on urbanization processes in developing regions. What is more, carrying out research without the possibility of doing fieldwork has become a challenge to face during the 2020’s pandemic. The presented study argues for mapping and urban morphology as potential research methods to explore complex urban environments from remote. Available online resources with maps and satellite imagery can potentially be used as a source of up-to-date geographic information to map settlements and their developmental dynamics from afar. Advances in geographic information systems and satellite imagery provide tools and images to analyze cities’ changing morphology. This study proposes a methodology for the mapping and systematic observation of urban forms at different scales. The paper presents an ongoing mapping project to test the methodology in 4 different cities in the context of Sub Saharan Africa, where rapid urbanization has created complex interactions between formal and informal morphologies in recent years. An analytical approach and deductive observation of satellite images help define the areas used to exemplify the urbanization phenomena. The mapping operation is carried out with the remotely collected open-source information. The samples selected are observed in different scales (territorial scale, urban scale, and block scale) and different time frames. This study uses the morphology of a city as a descriptive language that frames the recognized phenomena. In the developed maps, the fact that mapping is not just a matter of establishing facts, but can be a means of constructing spatial knowledge, is put to the test. As this is still an evolving study, the chosen cases are exploratory and may not represent the wide range of informal-formal relations and dynamics, however the opportunity to see the overwhelming changes from a spatial and morphological point of view opens up opportunities for reflections about urbanisations and ways of studying it.

description: In the realm of "teaching morphology" studies, there is the opportunity to test a comparative method based on analogies and differences. This paper describes a pedagogic experiment in an International Architecture Master Program held in Italy in Spring 2020. In the Design Unit "Architecture and Urban economics", the main objective was practising urban morphology and building typology as reading and writing tools to understand and design the "urban block". The Design Unit proposed students with the challenge of using morphological tools to compare, relate, and intervene in two urban blocks situated in very different contexts, but with the same surface, the same position in the urban context and the same shape. One study site is located in Turin, Italy; the second study site is located in Nanjing, China. The challenge to compare two different realities using the same tools and analogous sites helped students realise these instruments’ potential as generators of knowledge. The organisation of the course developed around weekly theoretical and practical collective discussions. The student's design process was an incremental step-based process involving different stages, such as context diagnosis, envisioning master plans and programs, developing design options, selecting a specific project, and implementing it. What is more, lectures on Real Estate evaluation, Urban economics & management and Media Sociology supported the design process, highlighting the importance of interdisciplinarity in studying and applying urban morphology. The design unit was developed in Spring Term 2020, during the beginning of lockdowns around the world due to the pandemic emergency. This particular situation became an excellent opportunity to test new communication methods with 45 students located in four different continents and verify/falsify the approach towards the way the topics were explained and developed to shape the next generation of architects and researchers, and practitioners.
title: Generic tissues in the US : developing a systematic classification based on endurance
Creators: name: Scheer, Brenda Case
Publisher: name: University of Strathclyde Publishing
Year: 2022

description: This paper develops a tissue classification method that is applied to modern city form. The identification and classification of urban tissues in the United States, even if not definitive, is a useful exercise to undertake. It has potentially many applications, so that a particular tissue type or a variety of types, can be correlated with other actions in research and practice. For example, tissues types in a specific place could be correlated with air pollution, with crime, and with water usage. Providing a framework for identifying tissues, and inviting further expansion of the data set, is the ultimate goal of this paper. The author has already analysed several pieces of this puzzle through research and documentation on the morphology of suburbs, of gridded city centres, of edge cities, of historic fabrics, and of suburban commercial territories at different periods in US history. This paper will create a visual matrix as a starting point for a "tissue" catalogue. The matrix is organized by endurance of tissues (origin of the initial foundation fabric), as well as the concepts of "static, elastic, and campus" tissue.

description: This paper investigates informal urban landscapes and their incremental adaptations in various forms, based on empirical evidence from the case study of two intermediate cities of the Peruvian coast: Piura in the north and Tacna in the south. This exploration reveals the practices of self-organisation and morphologies in informal urban areas. The research methods used were satellite imagery, direct observations, photographic studies and urban cartography. As a result, the work presents a typology of increments to explain the emergence of the morphologies of informal settlements. Additionally, this work considers the incremental processes through which residents extend and renew their neighbourhood-scale environments. Thus, the study reveals the way in which informal settlements produce habitable land, decent housing and quality public spaces. Understanding these informal urban landscapes would facilitate the incorporation of sustainable design strategies and consequently improve the quality of life for inhabitants. The findings of this article contribute to the growing body of knowledge on informal urban morphology and incremental urbanism.

description: The radically synthetic foundation for smooth geometry formulated in [Law11] postulates a space T with the property that it has a unique point and, out of the monoid T^T of endomorphisms, it extracts a submonoid R which, in many cases, is the (commutative) multiplication of a rig structure. The rig R is said to be bi-directional if its subobject of invertible elements has two connected components. In this case, R may be equipped with a pre-order compatible with the rig structure. We adjust the construction of `well-adapted' models of Synthetic Differential Geometry in order to build the first pre-cohesive toposes with a bi-directional R. We also show that, in one of these pre-cohesive variants, the pre-order on R, derived radically synthetically from bi-directionality, coincides with that defined in the original model.

Balony: a software package for analysis of data generated by synthetic genetic array experiments
Creators: name: Young, Barry P
name: Loewen, Christopher J
Publisher: name: BioMed Central
Year: 2016

description: Background: Synthetic Genetic Array (SGA) analysis is a procedure which has been developed to allow the systematic examination of large numbers of double mutants in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The aim of these experiments is to identify genetic interactions between pairs of genes. These experiments generate a number of images of ordered arrays of yeast colonies which must be analyzed in order to quantify the extent of the genetic interactions. We have designed software that is able to analyze virtually any image of regularly arrayed colonies and allows the user significant flexibility over the analysis procedure. Results: “Balony” is freely available software which enables the extraction of quantitative data from array-based genetic screens. The program follows a multi-step process, beginning with the optional preparation of plate images from single or composite images. Next, the colonies are identified on a plate and the pixel area of each is measured. This is followed by a scoring module which normalizes data and pairs control and experimental data files. The final step is analysis of the scored data, where the strength and reproducibility of genetic interactions can be visualized and cross-referenced with information on each gene to provide biological insights into the results of the screen. Conclusions: Analysis of SGA screens with Balony can be either automated or highly interactive, enabling the user to customize the process to their specific needs. Quantitative data can be extracted at each stage for external analysis if required. Beyond SGA, this software can be used for analyzing many types of plate-based high-throughput screens.
title: Simulating the impact of urban morphology on energy demand in blocks- A case study of dwellings in Nanjing
Creators: name: Shang, Chuan

description: This study aims to explore the impact of urban morphology on the energy demand of urban residential blocks, using dynamic simulation tools―HTB2 and Virvil Sketchup Extension. The study was conducted in Nanjing, a city with a hot summer and cold-winter climate that was under great challenges of reducing heating and cooling energy consumption. In particular, the simulation was applied to 35 residential blocks characterized by four types including point-type, linetype, courtyard-type and hybrid-type. Seven indicators were chosen to reveal each block's morphological features and total energy use intensity (EUI) was adopted to assess energy demand. Through correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis, this study verified a quantitative correlation relationship between urban morphology features and energy performance of buildings at block scale. Building density was the only factor that could significantly affect the total EUI of point-type and line-type residential blocks, while building orientation was the only factor affecting the total EUI of hybrid-type residential blocks significantly. No indicators could significantly affect the total EUI of the courtyard type residential blocks. It should be noted that surface-to-volume ratio was the only factor that could significantly affect the total EUI of all urban blocks, regardless of block morphological types. Overall, this study provides a reference for urban planners and designers to reduce building energy consumption at the master planning stage. Moreover, this study also suggests a general method for analysing the impact of urban morphology on building energy consumption in blocks.
title: Towards a networked open space for seismic resilience : a case study of Sulmona, a historic city in Italy
Creators: name: Song, Wenying

description: Sulmona is a fragile territory, given its exposure to frequent seismic attacks. With the densest fabric, its historic centre is the most vulnerable zone, compared to its new districts with dispersed fabric—with more open space (streets, squares, and parks) in preparedness for emergency evacuation and shelter. In the historic centre, more interconnected open space is required to ensure the safe gathering, emergency evacuation, and rescuing work. However, a contradiction exists between conserving the historic fabric and inserting more safe open space or/and modifying the existing open space for seismic resilience. Under this condition, our research tries to establish a networked open space through minimized interventions with maximum effects to raise the historic centre’s preparedness for response to earthquakes. Two stages are taken, combing space syntax and the cartographic study. First, a space syntax analysis of the existing road network is performed. It helps to identify the priority streets—which have higher spatial integration and whose suitability should be primarily achieved—for emergency evacuation. It is noteworthy that the configuration of these priority streets differs from that in the Emergency Plan by the municipality; possibilities to enhance the Emergency Plan exist. Meanwhile, it assists in locating the two most problematic areas within the historic centre, where inadequate connection to evacuation routes, insufficient safe open space, and fragmented and inaccessible open space are crucial issues to be solved. Secondly, a cartographic study of historical maps validates our choices of strategic locations for further interventions. Some certain boundary-modification and demolition is suggested to improve the circulation, insert more safe open space, and integrate the enclosed open space. The two stages allow us to plan a networked open space of the historic centre to strengthen its preparedness for earthquake response. And the approach is meant to be referential and adaptable to other similar cases in earthquakeprone territories.

description: Несмотря на достижения в области медицины, реабилитации и ухода, пострадавшие с травматическим повреждением спинного мозга сталкиваются с серьезными проблемами, включающими ограниченность передвижения, потерю чувствительности, нарушение функции внутренних органов, высокую частоту вторичных осложнений и психоэмоциональных нарушений, которые влияют на все аспекты их жизни. В настоящее время не существует эффективного лечения, способствующего регенерации аксонов и восстановлению утраченных неврологических функций после повреждения спинного мозга, что обусловлено сложностью и гетерогенностью его патогенеза. Поэтому понимание патофизиологии повреждений спинного мозга необходимо для определения терапевтических стратегий. Цель – представить современные данные о механизмах травматического повреждения спинного мозга. Результаты. Показано наличие терапевтических мишеней в механизмах вторичной травмы, которыми можно управлять с помощью соответствующих экзогенных вмешательств, что позволяет оптимистически рассматривать возможные терапевтические перспективы. Заключение. Учитывая многогранность патогенеза рассматриваемой патологии, следует принимать во внимание несколько сложных задач, в том числе регулирование интенсивности воспаления и перекисного окисления липидов, уменьшение гибели нервных клеток и процесса рубцевания, восстановление здоровых нервных клеток, стимулирование функциональной регенерации аксонов. В этих областях достигнут впечатляющий прогресс, однако все еще требуется много усилий, чтобы результаты экспериментальных исследований нашли свое применение в клинической практике.
title: Urban form and sustainable mobility choices - analyzing energy use and carbon emissions from transportation in typical Swedish neighborhoods
Creators: name: Stojanovski, Todor
Publisher: name: University of Strathclyde Publishing
Year: 2022

description: Many Swedish municipalities have ambitious goals to cut carbon emissions from transportation, but the urban form is a major obstacle. The lack of mobility choices in many Swedish neighborhoods and cities designed for automobiles hinders the possibilities to shift towards more sustainable travel alternatives. Urban designers and planners can help with redesigning these neighborhoods and creating urban forms that encourage walking, cycling and increased use of public transportation if policy is morphologically informed about the environmental performance and carbon implications of transportation systems in existing and newly planned neighborhoods. This paper proposes a model to assess the effect of urban form on sustainable mobility choices by analyzing typical Swedish neighborhoods. It firstly present a model of the typical Swedish city and later it analyzes the sustainable mobility choices as a set of urban form and accessibility factors commonly used in urban planning and design practices. Swedish typomorphology has a long tradition and the typomorphological urban model is based on previous conceptualizations by Swedish morphologists as Greger Paulsson, Björn Linn, Carl-Johan Engström and Johan Rådberg. The mobility choices model that is used to assess the buildings in the typical neighborhoods produces heat maps and visually informs about the integration with walking, cycling, public transportation and private car, modal shares, carbon emissions and transportation energy use. This information can (potentially) trigger urban transformation or redesign to better integrate sustainable travel alternatives in these neighborhoods and contribute to more sustainable cities. In the ongoing pandemics and lockdowns the possibilities to walk and cycle are increasingly appreciated.
