The Architecture of Value Thinking and Pneuma in Housing Associations

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Housing associations make too small a contribution to society, the government has to step in too frequently because of maladministration, and the associations' executives are often unaware of the far-reaching impact of their decisions.These are the conclusions of new academic research conducted by Jan Veuger of Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University (RSM).In the author's dissertation, he asserts that in numerous cases, there is no correlation between social and financial objectives.The Dutch House of Representatives debated the results of the report Ver van huis from the Parliamentary Committee of Inquiry on Housing Associations in early December, 2014.The research that is being carried out at the moment is constructed in a manner that if we understand something about value thinking and what underlying motivation is, an approach can be deducted that will allow us to control them.After the introduction, an explanation of the theme of the research will be given and the choice for a four-phase model with a deepening as to what value(s) is (and are).From the perspective of the four-phase model, the emphasis will be put on the socialization and thinking capacities, and parallels will be drawn between the values within the four-phase model, the examined values, and in specific, public housing corporations.
The quality, safety, feasibility, and interpretive accuracy of echocardiographic and lung ultrasound assessment of COVID‐19 patients using a hand‐held ultrasound

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Background The association between COVID‐19 infection and the cardiovascular system necessitates the use of an echocardiogram in this setting. Information on the utilization, safety, and quality of point‐of‐care cardiac and lung ultrasound using a hand‐held device in these patients is scarce. Aims To investigate the safety, technical aspects, quality indices, and interpretive accuracy of a hand‐held echocardiogram in patients with COVID‐19. Methods From April‐28 through July‐27, 2020, consecutive patients with COVID‐19 underwent hand‐held echocardiogram and lung ultrasound evaluation (Vscan Extend™; GE Healthcare) within 48‐h of admission. The operators recorded a series of technical parameters and graded individual experiences. The examinations were further analyzed by a blinded fellowship‐trained echocardiographer for general quality, proper acquisition, and right ventricular (RV) demonstration. Results Among 103 patients, 66 (64.1%) were male. Twenty‐nine (28.2%) patients could not turn on their left side and 23 (22.3%) could not maintain effective communication. The mean length of each echocardiogram study was 8.5 ± 2.9 min, battery usage was 14 ± 5%, and mean operator‐to‐patient proximity was 59 ± 11 cm. Ninety‐five (92.2%) examinations were graded as fair/good quality. A fair agreement was demonstrated between the operator and the echocardiographer for general ultrasound quality (Kappa = 0.329, p < 0.001). A fair‐good correlation ( r = 0.679, p < 0.001) and substantial agreement (Kappa = 0.612, p < 0.001) were demonstrated between the operator and echocardiographer for left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), whereas a fair agreement was demonstrated for RV systolic function (Kappa = 0.308, p = 0.002). LVEF agreement was also assessed using the Bland‐Altman analysis revealing a mean bias of −0.96 (95% limits of agreement 9.43 to −11.35; p = 0.075). Conclusions Among patients with COVID‐19, echocardiography with a hand‐held ultrasound is a safe and reasonable alternative for a complete formal study (<10% poor‐quality indices). Echocardiogram assessment by the operators during the exam acquisition is reliable for LVEF, while RV systolic function should be subsequently offline reassessed.
Report of the Conference Miasto po obu brzegach rzeki - różne oblicza kultury [A City on Both Banks of a River - Various Aspects of Culture]. October 18-20, 2007, Warsaw, Poland.

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Polish ethnology, in particular cultural and social anthropology, has been dedicated for a long time to urban topics. This interest is expressed in the anchoring of urban studies in the Polish Society of Urban Ethnology (Polskie Towarzystwo Etnologii Miasta) which came into being in the year 2000. The subject of interest of this society is the problematics of the social-cultural identity of cities with a view to changes which, at least since the 19th century, accompany the growth of cities and with them the adjoining regions. One of the most importantactivities of the Polish Society of Urban Ethnology is the organization of international thematically oriented conferences – e.g., Sfera sacrum i profanum w kulturze współczesnych miast europy środkowej (The sacred and profane sphere in the culture of contemporary Central European cities (Warsaw – Pultusk, Sept. 16-18, 2004), ); Miejsca biesiadne. Co o nich opowiada antropolog? (Places for parties; what does an anthropologist have to say about them?) (Lodz, June 1–2, 2006).
Aptamer Nanoconstructs Crossing Human Blood–Brain Barrier Discovered via Microphysiological System-Based SELEX Technology

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Blood-brain barrier (BBB) remains one of the critical challenges in developing neurological therapeutics. Short single-stranded DNA/RNA nucleotides forming a three-dimensional structure, called aptamers, have received increasing attention as BBB shuttles for efficient brain drug delivery owing to their practical advantages over Trojan horse antibodies or peptides. Aptamers are typically obtained by combinatorial chemical technology, termed Systemic Evolution of Ligands by EXponential Enrichment (SELEX), against purified targets, living cells, or animal models. However, identifying reliable BBB-penetrating aptamers that perform efficiently under human physiological conditions has been challenging because of the poor physiological relevance in the conventional SELEX process. Here, we report a human BBB shuttle aptamer (hBS) identified using a human microphysiological system (MPS)-based SELEX (MPS-SELEX) method. A two-channel MPS lined with human brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) interfaced with astrocytes and pericytes, recapitulating high-level barrier function of in vivo BBB, was exploited as a screening platform. The MPS-SELEX procedure enabled robust function-based screening of the hBS candidates, which was not achievable in traditional in vitro BBB models. The identified aptamer (hBS01) through five-round of MPS-SELEX exhibited high capability to transport protein cargoes across the human BBB via clathrin-mediated endocytosis and enhanced uptake efficiency in BMECs and brain cells. The enhanced targeting specificity of hBS01 was further validated both in vitro and in vivo, confirming its powerful brain accumulation efficiency. These findings demonstrate that MPS-SELEX has potential in the discovery of aptamers with high target specificity that can be widely utilized to boost the development of drug delivery strategies.
Tropical Assemblage: The Soviet Large Panel in Cuba

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract Palmarola and Alonso examine the confluence of science, technology, and ideology in one of the largest social housing projects in Latin America, the large-concrete-panel housing projects in Cuba. The authors demonstrate that Cuba's imagination of revolutionary change was simultaneously local and imported, arguing that the Cuban slogan "Revolution is Building" furthered the Cuban political project and that the Cuban government's framing of prefabricated housing paralleled its framing of the Cuban New Man. Large-panel construction, they argue, is a hybrid technology that is both Soviet and Cuban and made possible through local innovation and transnational exchange.
Weakly subnormal subgroups and variations of the Baer-Suzuki theorem

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

A subgroup $R$ of a finite group $G$ is weakly subnormal in $G$ if $R$ is not subnormal in $G$ but it is subnormal in every proper overgroup of $R$ in $G$. In this paper, we first classify all finite groups $G$ which contains a weakly subnormal $p$-subgroup for some prime $p$. We then determine all finite groups containing a cyclic weakly subnormal $p$-subgroup. As applications, we prove a number of variations of the Baer-Suzuki theorem using the orders of certain group elements.
INVESTIGATING ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION AT A CIVIL ENGINEERING WORKPLACE

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Organizational communication is the set of communication dynamics found within an organization. It is considered the unique approach of an organization when it comes to communicating internally and externally. This study focuses on civil engineers who are a part of a civil engineering institution and how their organizational communication works. For the research design, the descriptive qualitative design was employed. Data was gathered through an interview lasting ten to fifteen minutes. Thematic analysis was used to process the qualitative information gathered by the researchers. The researchers observed that their communication within their organization is direct. They faced several challenges regarding culture, generational gap, and conversing with foreign workers. Hence, adapting to new cultures and norms brought by the changing times may help in facilitating clearer communication within their organization.

Differences in Kovats indices and mass spectral data of the various isomers are briefly discussed.
Forecast of temperature-attributable mortality at lead times of up to 15 days for a very large ensemble of European regions

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

&lt;p&gt;Implementing adequate health preventing measures is essential for public health decision making, particularly in the current context of rising temperatures. Most of the early warning systems are only based on climate data, and in very few cases they truly model the actual impact of the climate phenomena.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here we establish, for the first-time, the theoretical basis for the development of operational heat-health early warning systems that combine climate and health data. We studied the predictability of Temperature Attributable Mortality (TAM) at lead times of up to 15 days for a very large ensemble of European regions. To achieve this goal, we analysed daily counts of all-cause mortality for the period 1998-2012 in 147 NUTS2 regions in 16 European countries, representing more than 400 million people, and daily high-resolution weather forecasts from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). We applied epidemiological models for the fitting of the temperature-mortality relationship in each of the regions, accounting for the different vulnerabilities and socio-demographic characteristics existing in Europe. We compared the predictive skill of the temperature and health forecasts on seasons and days with higher mortality risk.&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We conclude that the predictability of temperature can be used to issue skilful forecasts of TAM. In general, the predictability limit of temperature is similar to the one of TAM, which implies that the use of epidemiological models to transform the climate variables into health information does not reduce the lead time limit with significant forecast skill. Nonetheless, the spatial heterogeneity of the predictability lead time for TAM is higher than for temperature, especially in summer, where the complex shape of the temperature-mortality association amplifies the forecast errors. Overall, we find&amp;#160; a nearly-linear relationship between the predictability of temperature and TAM for different seasons and regions, suggesting that future improvements in the predictability of temperature could automatically lead to improvements in the predictability of TAM.&lt;/p&gt;
Estimation and optimization of flank wear and tool lifespan in finish turning of AISI 304 stainless steel using desirability function approach

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The wear of cutting tools remains a major obstacle.The effects of wear are not only antagonistic at the lifespan and productivity, but also harmful with the surface quality.The present work deals with some machinability studies on flank wear, surface roughness, and lifespan in finish turning of AISI 304 stainless steel using multilayer Ti(C,N)/Al2O3/TiN coated carbide inserts.The machining experiments are conducted based on the response surface methodology (RSM).Combined effects of three cutting parameters, namely cutting speed, feed rate and cutting time on the two performance outputs (i.e.VB and Ra), and combined effects of two cutting parameters, namely cutting speed and feed rate on lifespan (T), are explored employing the analysis of variance (ANOVA).The relationship between the variables and the technological parameters is determined using a quadratic regression model and optimal cutting conditions for each performance level are established through desirability function approach (DFA) optimization.The results show that the flank wear is influenced principally by the cutting time and in the second level by the cutting speed.In addition, it is indicated that the cutting time is the dominant factor affecting workpiece surface roughness followed by feed rate, while lifespan is influenced by cutting speed.The optimum level of input parameters for composite desirability was found Vc1-f1-t1 for VB, Ra and Vc1-f1 for T, with a maximum percentage of error 6.38%.
Dissemination of information related to water, health and sanitation in Brazil: institutional and technological aspects of the development of the water Atlas

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

The present study developed indicators produced from various information systems that present the general condition of water, sanitation and health in Brazil. A total of 94 variables were selected, which supported the development of 73 indicators according to three axes: water quality, sanitation conditions and health disorders related to water. These indicators were appropriate for use in the form of tables and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) web maps. The possibility of visualising these data through maps may help health and sanitation managers both improve these services and complete the information systems. People have used the information available to support civil actions in the fight for sanitation rights. The site has been visited both to assess local conditions by consulting the listings of the indicators in a single municipality and to map large areas by consulting the maps and graphs for a single indicator. The large number of times that the glossary of technical terms and legislation was accessed indicates that the site has an educational application and is not used simply as a source of data.
MEDICATION GUIDANCE RECEIVED FROM PHARMACISTS : Perceptions of People Living With Cardiovascular Diseases

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

People living with cardiovascular diseases find it complex to manage their medications. This is because they have to deal with many different kinds of medicines and follow strict procedures. Guidance is therefore inevitable. In the past few years, there have been moves to involve community pharmacists to take intensive responsibility in advising clients about medications because they are the most accessible health care providers. \n\nThis study has been done under a joint project involving Laurea University of Applied Sciences, Tapiola Pharmacy and Espoon Sydänyhdistys. This project campaigns for people living with cardiovascular diseases to be given proper medication guidance so that they can live safely. Medication errors can be costly when they bring destructive incidences to one’s life. Tapiola pharmacy has been considered herein as the medication center to the informants (N=3) who are members of Espoo Sydänyhdistys.\n\nThis study seeks how the informants perceive the medication guidance given to them by pharmacists. Data has been collected through interviews where the informal conversational interview and the general interview guide methods have been used. This data has been analyzed using thematic content analysis to reveal findings that pharmacists should be involved in medication guidance after hospitalization. This is a realistic way to curb unnecessary and dangerous medication errors from occurring. For this reason, a seamless professional relationship between nurses and pharmacists should be implemented to bring success in medication guidance.
Social and financial efficiency: Institutional characteristics of the partner organizations of Pakistan Poverty Alleviation Fund

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Efficiency analysis of the Partner Organizations can benefit all the microfinance sector's key stakeholders to benchmark the current scene and formulate optimal policy agenda. This study seeks to measure the partner organizations of the Pakistan Poverty Alleviation Fund's social and financial efficiency and to identify causes and sources of their inefficiencies. A non-parametric technique known as Data Envelopment Analysis is applied to investigate the Partner Organizations' efficiency throughout 2005–2015. The required data was obtained from the database of the Mix-Market and Pakistan Microfinance Network. The social and financial efficiency was estimated assuming Constant Return to Scale, Variable Return to Scale, and with respect to the Operational Scale of the Partner Organizations. Results revealed that the partner organizations are more scale efficient (median = 75%) than pure technically efficient (median = 55%). Further, graphical representations show a decreasing linear trend and negative serial correlation in the percentage of efficient partner organizations. The model fit results show that institutional characteristics that influence partner organizations' efficiencies significantly include their age, Operational Self-Sufficiency, personnel, loan officers, assets and debt. Finally, the diagnostic tests for endogeneity, heteroskedasticity, heterogeneity, and cross-sectional dependence were performed.
Performance of SARAL/AltiKa satellite altimetry mission over the Strait of Malacca and the South China Sea

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

Satellite altimetry faces challenges when attempting to monitor sea surface heights (SSHs) in coastal zones due to the rapid changes in sea state and land contamination within altimeter footprints. This leads to the lack of high resolution and data quality observations, thus creating a significant gap in the data availability over the coast. A new generation of SARAL/AltiKa satellite altimetry mission with Ka-band promises a significant refinement of coastal altimetry data and provides unprecedented level of ocean SSH data as close as 10 km from the coastline. In this paper, selective passes of SARAL/AltiKa over the Strait of Malacca and the South China Sea were chosen to examine the performance of SSH data quality over the coast, and relatively compared with Jason-2 satellite altimetry mission.

Examining the nexus between involvement in crime and delinquency and being processed through the criminal justice system

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The criminal justice system is designed to detect, apprehend, punish, and rehabilitate criminal offenders. Precisely how effective the criminal justice system is at achieving these goals is not entirely known. The current study sought to add to this gap in the knowledge base by examining the connection between self-reported crime and delinquency and the probability of being arrested, convicted, sentenced to probation, and incarcerated. To do so, male and female respondents drawn from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health) were analyzed. The results revealed that respondents who were relatively more involved in acts of nonviolent crime and delinquency, as well as violent crime and delinquency, were significantly more likely to be processed through the criminal justice than were those who were less involved in such behaviors. These findings indicate that being processed through the criminal justice system is a function of criminal involvement. We conclude by calling for additional research to determine whether the effectiveness of the criminal justice system could be improved.
