Outcomes of a Multicenter Safety and Efficacy Study of the SuitX Phoenix Powered Exoskeleton for Ambulation by Patients With Spinal Cord Injury.

Objective: To examine the safety and efficacy of ambulation utilizing a semi-passive and lightweight powered exoskeleton by spinal cord injury (SCI) patients.Methods: This is a multi-center, open-label, prospective cohort study across three facilities. A cohort of 40 individuals with SCI from T4-L5 was recruited into a 20-session training and assessment protocol, utilizing the SuitX Phoenix. All patients were tested using a 10-m-walk test (10 MWT), 6-min-walk test (6 MWT), and Timed up & Go test (TUG). Patient satisfaction, pain, exertion, changes in affect, as well as overall comfort and confidence were reported using a satisfaction survey, Rated Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale, and Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS). Safety outcomes, adverse events, and device malfunctions were reported.Results: Forty participants completed the study. There were no serious adverse events. All participants reported moderate to high levels of comfort and confidence using the device. All patients were able to achieve FIM of >4 on transitional movements and walking. The neurological level of injury had a statistically significant association with walking speed, WISCI-II, and FIM. Participants with an incomplete spinal cord injury had a higher FIM, faster speed, and higher WISCI-II in all outcome measures.Conclusion: This is the first study to examine the safety and efficacy of SuitX Phoenix for ambulation by SCI patients. We have shown that Phoenix is efficacious in allowing adults with SCI T4 to L5 perform walking and transitional movements. This study also reports the safety-profile of the device, user satisfaction, and psychological trends during training.

Acceptability of an mHealth App That Provides Harm Reduction Services Among People Who Inject Drugs: Survey Study.

BackgroundHarm reduction services reduce the negative consequences of drug injection and are often embedded within syringe service programs (SSPs). However, people who inject drugs (PWID) suboptimally engage with such services because of stigma, fear, transportation restrictions, and limited hours of operation. Mobile health (mHealth) apps may provide an opportunity to overcome these barriers and extend the reach of SSPs beyond that of the traditional brick-and-mortar models.ObjectiveThis study aims to assess the prevalence of smartphone ownership, the level of comfort in providing the personal information required to use mHealth apps, and interest in using an mHealth app to access harm reduction services among PWID to guide the development of an app.MethodsWe administered a survey to 115 PWID who were enrolled via respondent-driven sampling from July 2018 to July 2019. We examined the extent to which PWID had access to smartphones; were comfortable in providing personal information such as name, email, and address; and expressed interest in various app-based services. We measured participant characteristics (demographics, health status, and behaviors) and used binary logistic and Poisson regressions to identify independent correlates of mHealth-related variables. The primary regression outcomes included summary scores for access, comfort, and interest. The secondary outcomes included binary survey responses for individual comfort or interest components.ResultsMost participants were White (74/105, 70.5%), male (78/115, 67.8%), and middle-aged (mean=41.7 years), and 67.9% (74/109) owned a smartphone. Participants reported high levels of comfort in providing personal information to use an mHealth app, including name (96/109, 88.1%), phone number (92/109, 84.4%), email (85/109, 77.9%), physical address (85/109, 77.9%), and linkage to medical records (72/109, 66.1%). Participants also reported strong interest in app-based services, including medication or sterile syringe delivery (100/110, 90.9%), lab or appointment scheduling (90/110, 81.8%), medication reminders (77/110, 70%), educational material (65/110, 59.1%), and group communication forums (64/110, 58.2%). Most participants were comfortable with the idea of home delivery of syringes (93/109, 85.3%). Homeless participants had lower access to smartphones (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 0.15, 95% CI 0.05-0.46; P=.001), but no other participant characteristics were associated with primary outcomes. Among secondary outcomes, recent SSP use was positively associated with comfort with the home delivery of syringes (AOR 3.29, 95% CI 1.04-10.3 P=.04), and being older than 50 years was associated with an increased interest in educational materials (AOR 4.64, 95% CI 1.31-16.5; P=.02) and group communication forums (AOR 3.69, 95% CI 1.10-12.4; P=.04).ConclusionsOur findings suggest that aside from those experiencing homelessness or unstable housing, PWID broadly have access to smartphones, are comfortable with sharing personal information, and express interest in a wide array of services within an app. Given the suboptimal access to and use of SSPs among PWID, an mHealth app has a high potential to address the harm reduction needs of this vulnerable population.

BioZero—Designing Nature-Inspired Net-Zero Building

This article introduces BioZero, a nature-inspired near-zero building proposed for Quay St, Brooklyn, New York. The building is designed for the maximum use of daylight and natural ventilation. This is the result of its shallow plan depth and the inner light wells/ventilation stacks, which also serve the inner circulation space. The light wells/ventilation stacks are created as a result of the organic shape of the internal partitions. The building is constructed from a steel frame and hemp-lime bio-composite material (hempcrete), which smooths out the fluctuations of internal air temperature and relative humidity. The south facing façade is fitted with the Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) photovoltaic array that covers 90% of the opaque surface area of the façade. The design was based on nature-inspired computation, with sustainability principles as guiding constraints. The main findings are that the building achieves −227 tonnes of negative embodied carbon due to sequestration of CO2 in the hemp plant from which the material was harvested, and a net-zero operation. The main conclusions are that in the context of climate emergency, nature inspired design leads to energy efficient buildings with a high level of thermal comfort, which are buildable and sustainable.

Direct analysis and exploitation is pivotal key factor of the data for accomplishment in numerous business and service domains, as well as the smart city domain. In this paper special focus is given to those applications of big data that support smart cities along with the advantages of including big data applications for smart cities and need of secure graph database that can be used to analyze the large data. In addition to it is also concluded that graph analytics can easily regulate the connections between many different data points of the smart city data: even those that at first do not appear to be connected.

Spatio-Temporal Evolution and Prediction of Tourism Comprehensive Climate Comfort in Henan Province, China

The tourism comprehensive climate comfort index (TCCI) was used to evaluate the tourism climate comfort in Henan Province in the last 61 years, and its future development trend is predicted. The results showed that the temporal variation of the TCCI had a “double peak” type (monthly variation), and an overall comfort improvement trend (interannual variation). The change of tourism climate comfort days was similar to the change of the index, especially in the months with a low comfort level. In space, the distribution of the TCCI gradually increased from northeast to southwest, and the area with a high comfort level also increased over time. Meanwhile, it also showed the spatial distribution of months with a low comfort level, which provides reliable information for tourists to use when choosing tourist destinations across all periods of the year. The TCCI was classified by hierarchical classification, and principal components were extracted to explore the main climate factors controlling different types of TCCIs and the relationship between them, and large-scale atmospheric–oceanic variability. According to the temporal change trend and correlation, the long-term change trend of tourism climate comfort was predicted, which will provide a scientific basis for tourism planners to choose tourist destinations.

Perceptions of self-efficacy in providing multidimensional school-age stuttering therapy among board certified fluency specialists in the United States

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to document fluency specialists’ self-efficacy beliefs for providing multidimensional treatment to children who stutter and to identify cognitive, affective, and behavioral correlates of self-efficacy. MethodSixty-six Board Certified Specialists in Fluency in the United States completed an online survey measuring self-efficacy in providing multidimensional stuttering therapy, perceived importance of multidimensional aspects of therapy, feelings of comfort in providing therapy, perceived treatment success, and employment and demographic questions. Open-ended questions were also asked for participants to describe why they chose to specialize and what benefits they received from it. ResultsParticipants reported high levels of self-efficacy (averages above 9 on a scale from 0 to 10) in speech-related, cognitive, emotional, and social domains of stuttering therapy, as well as high levels of comfort and clinical success. Higher ratings of overall self-efficacy were significantly correlated with beliefs about the importance of multidimensional treatment, τ = 0.27, treatment comfort, τ = 0.25, and self-reported treatment success, τ = .49. Responses indicated that many participants believed that their self-efficacy grew because of specialty certification. ConclusionAlthough not the same as treatment outcome data, self-efficacy among clinical service providers is an important variable to consider. Board Certified Specialists in Fluency in the United States report very high levels of self-efficacy for school-age stuttering treatment. The process of certification helps to increase self-efficacy and provides a means for advertising competence in stuttering treatment. This information could help in recruiting the next generation of fluency specialists.

A Heuristic Method for Bus Rapid Transit Planning Based on the Maximum Trip Service

Bus rapid transit (BRT) is characterized by higher speed, higher comfort level, and larger capacity than conventional bus service. Although many cities worldwide have adopted BRT in recent years, there is an absence of scientific and quantitative approach for BRT network planning. The problem of BRT planning in an existing transportation network is very complex with constraints of road geometrics, regulations, right of way, travel demand, vehicle operations, and so on. This paper focuses on developing an optimization model for BRT network planning, where an integer programing model is established to identify station locations and route layout with the objective of maximizing the number of trips served by the network, subjected to constraints including distance between stations, cost of construction, road geometrics, etc. The detour factor of the BRT route, which is an important indicator but widely ignored in previous studies, is also taken as a constraint. A heuristic method is applied to generate optimal solutions to the integer programming model, followed by a case study using the transportation network and travel demand data in Luoyang, China. The numerical results show that the method is valid and can therefore be applied to improve BRT network planning and the sustainable transportation system development.

Poster Abstracts

Purpose: There is unequivocal evidence supporting the feasibility, acceptability, and non-inferiority of evidence-based mental health (i.e., PTSD, depression, couple therapy) treatment modalities delivered via web-based telehealth (e.g., videoconferencing). However, there is a surprising scarcity of research examining telehealth delivery of evidence-based alcohol use disorder (AUD) interventions in any population. The purpose of this exploratory study is to begin to address this longstanding gap in the literature by examining the preliminary feasibility and acceptability of Alcohol Behavioral Couple Therapy (ABCT) delivered via telehealth. Method: Data were collected from participants (N = 19 couples;38 participants) who completed ABCT via telehealth as part of an ongoing randomized controlled trial during the COVID-19 pandemic. Self-report survey data were collected online via REDCap upon treatment completion (ABCT session 12). Data: Most items utilized a 5-point Likert-type scale (1 = least agreement to 5 = most agreement). Results: Findings indicate that both participants (M = 101.29, SD = 9.9) and therapists (M = 103.21, SD = 8.9) reported high therapeutic alliance as measured by the Helping Alliance Questionnaire. Participants reported a high level of positivity (M = 4.84, SD = 0.37) and comfort (M = 4.61, SD = 0.60) with telehealth delivery. The vast majority of participants (97.4%;n = 37) indicated that they would recommend telehealth to a family member or friend based on their experience with this study. Most participants reported that they perceived the same or better effectiveness of treatment via telehealth compared to in-person (84.2%, n = 32), and most found telehealth to be more convenient (84.2%, n = 32). All participants (100%) found telehealth to be equally or more accessible than in-person treatment. One participant reported that they did less homework via telehealth and just two participants reported that they dedicated less time to their treatment. Six participants (15.8%) reported that they would have preferred in-person treatment to telehealth. Findings will be updated to include participants who are and will enroll in the project in the coming months. Additional qualitative responses from participants will also be reported. Conclusions: Although preliminary, these exploratory findings highlight promising feasibility and acceptability of delivering AUD treatment to couples via home-based videoconferencing telehealth. It is important for future research to identify elements of behavioral AUD interventions that might benefit from telehealth adaptation compared to in-person treatment delivery.

Optimization Analysis of the Residential Window-to-Wall Ratio Based on Numerical Calculation of Energy Consumption in the Hot-Summer and Cold-Winter Zone of China

Along with the rapid urbanization and economic growth of China over the past decades, the thermal comfort needs of the people in this region have risen dramatically, and at the same time, promoting building energy efficiency is cited as part of the major projects in the 14th five-year plan for energy efficiency improvement. In addition, the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic has plunged people into long-term panic, and promoted the entire construction industry to think about a healthier and more sustainable living environment. To respond to the imbalance between energy supply and demand, an optimization analysis based on energy use is developed, assessing the energy efficiency of the window-to-wall ratio (WWR) design and calculating the energy consumption of three different types of residential buildings for both cooling and heating loads as well as for year-round loads. Owing to its harsh climate and huge energy consumption, in this study, the Hot-summer and Cold-winter (HSCW) zone of China was chosen as the experimental setting for the optimization analysis of WWR. Then, in the three main types of residential buildings, including detached houses, multi-story dwellings and high-rise dwellings, a correlation between WWRS and energy consumption in the cooling season, heating season and year-round was built. The comparisons between the WWRS and energy consumption for different types of residential buildings are presented. The design optimization recommendation for WWRS are proposed. It has significant positive meanings for the development of green and sustainably designed residential buildings that offer high levels of thermal comfort and energy efficiency.

INFLUENCE OF COPING STRATEGIES ON THE STUDENT’S WELL-BEING IN CONDITIONS OF DISTANCE LEARNING

The article is devoted to the study of student's coping strategies influence on the level of their subjective well-being in conditions of distance learning. It was found that student's coping strategies have an impact on the level of their psychological comfort. Using regression analysis it was revealed that the variability of student's life well-being is determined by the following coping strategies: positive self-esteem; responsibility; planning; escape and self-control. It was developed the typology of students in the conditions of distance education, which includes such indicators of dominant coping strategies: the level of psychological comfort, dominant coping and measure of stress tolerance. According to the certain typology, three types of students were defined: 1) adaptive type (high indicators of well-being, high indicators of tolerance to stress, dominant strategies “self-esteem”, “responsibility” and “planning” ); 2) maladaptive type (low indicators of well-being, low indicators of tolerance to stress, dominant coping “escape”); 3) average adaptive type (average indicators of well-being, average indicators of tolerance to stress; dominant strategies “responsibility”, “self-control”, low indicators of coping “positive self-esteem”). The results of the study indicate that students who are best adapted to distance learning and have a high level of psychological comfort tend to evaluate themselves positively, treat work responsibly, plan their studies and have an average level of self-control.

E-scooters in urban infrastructure: Understanding sidewalk, bike lane, and roadway usage from trajectory data

This research considers the problem of using trajectory data in the Mobility Data Specification (MDS) standard to conduct meaningful analyses of infrastructure use by e-scooters without compromising personally identifiable information (PII). We assess the integration of e-scooters into the urban infrastructure in Austin, Texas, using trip trajectory data from an e-scooter provider company and infrastructure geographic inventory information. Our analysis uses more than eleven million location points from approximately 80,000 e-scooter trips made over a year, which accounts for 1.4 percent of the total e-scooter trips made in the city during the same period. Our results suggest that an average e-scooter trip distance is split between sidewalks (18 percent), bike lanes (11 percent), and roadways (33 percent), with 38 percent across other unclassified areas. Furthermore, approximately 60 percent of the roadway trips are made on principal arterials, and bike lane users prefer paths with medium to high level of comfort. An analysis of variance suggests that the mean speed of trips made on sidewalks is slightly lower (6 to 8 percent) than on other types of infrastructure, and weekday and AM peak hours present higher speeds. This study illustrates the potential use of trajectory data to provide insightful analysis to help understand and regulate the use of emerging mobility services on the current urban infrastructure. It also highlights the importance of providing and maintaining geographic urban inventory data. Even though our analyses were conducted using raw data points, we also discuss how partially aggregated data without PII could be used to provide similar insights, which can inform the development and extension of data sharing policies.

Moisture Management Properties of Bi-Layer Knitted Fabrics

For investigation of the moisture management properties of bi-layer knitted fabrics, a special knitting structure made of the same or different combinations of yarns of cotton, polypropylene, Microdenier polyester and polyester staple fibre on the face and reverse sides fibre was studied. Moisture management properties, which determine the warm-cool feeling, of the fabrics produced were determined and statistical analysis made. The results indicated that the Microdenier polyester (inner) – Microdenier polyester (outer) fabric had a better moisture management property, providing high levels of comfort, and is recommended for summer, active and sportswear. The results were discussed together with one-way ANOVA test results at a 0.05 significance level. The results indicate that the Microdenier polyester yarn inner and outer layer of bi-layer knitted fabric shows a better moisture management property due to its appreciable wetting radius, as well its good absorption rate, wetting time and spreading speed of sweat, thus exhibiting a very higher level of the comfort property.

Evaluation of Moisture Management Properties of Plated Interlock, Mini Flat Back Rib and Flat Back Rib Structures

Moisture management is a very fundamental criterion for any type of fabric. Hence, in this study three different knits viz plated interlock, mini flat back rib and flat back rib fabric structures with 100% eri silk (top), 100% bamboo (bottom) and 100% tencel (bottom) with the combination of two different yarn counts were used. The yield was tested for moisture management properties. It was identified that the bi-layer eri silk (14.3 tex) combined with bamboo (14.8 tex) and tencel (14.8 tex) plated interlock, mini flat back rib and flat back rib knit structure fabrics were excellent. Due to the high level of comfort and breathable nature, eri silk with bamboo and tencel fabrics are recommended for performance based garments.

Woolen Respirators for Thermal Management

AbstractCOVID‐19 pandemic recently has a great impact on personalized protection and healthcare, especially in the area of the respiratory mask. However, due to the complex relationship between filtration performance and thermal management, there is a lack of investigation considering both characters in respirators. Woolen knitwears are recently well acknowledged as textiles for both hot and cold because of their superior water‐actuated shape memory performance. To incorporate protective function against bacteria, virus, microdroplet, and particulate matter, melt‐blown polypropylene can be introduced as a barrier layer. Herein, a robust and sustainable bio‐based woolen respirator with the superior ability of thermal management is prepared using simple knitting and melt‐blown technology. The as‐prepared respirators provide excellent protection from airborne particulate along with the high level of comfort, compared with a commercial mask. Moreover, it exhibits a high rating during wear trial. This provides a new insight to develop high quality sustainable respiratory mask with an excellent comfort performance from functional biomaterials.

What have dads got to do with it? Australian fathers’ perspectives on communicating with their young children about relationships and sexuality

ABSTRACT This paper reports on findings of the Sex Ed Dads survey which sought Australian fathers’ perspectives on communicating with their young children about relationships and sexuality, as informal sexuality educators. Given the majority of existing family-based sexuality education research draws on the experiences of mothers, gaining insights from fathers is a much needed first step in designing resources to support paternal engagement in sexuality education. A diverse sample of 612 Australian fathers completed an online survey about their views on sexuality education and their role within it. Participating fathers valued sexuality education for their children and believed that their own informal contribution to its provision was important. Fathers reported high levels of comfort discussing a wide range of topics with their child at the age they deemed appropriate, although a gap between what fathers believed they should discuss and what they actually discussed was found. Findings offer insights for schools, resource developers and sexuality education providers seeking to support increased engagement of fathers in the sexuality education domain.

Cancer patients’ spiritual well-being and comfort levels: The impacts of church visitation

The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between Church visitation to spiritual well-being and the comfort level of cancer patients. This study used a cross-sectional analytical method with a consecutive sampling technique in 146 cancer patients in Manado. The results showed that cancer patients visited by the Church had good spiritual well-being of 77.4% and high level of comfort by 50%. In multivariate analysis it was found that the most influential factor in spiritual well-being of cancer patient was Church visitation (p=0.008) and family support (0.017). Cancer patients who receive church visitation and adequate family support have relationship with good spiritual well-being.

Implementation of model predictive control in a large-sized, low-energy office building

Modern and energy-optimized buildings often lack an intelligent and advanced control strategy. Instead, conventional rule-based control (RBC) strategies are still mainly used today, which do not exploit the full performance potential of these buildings. Model predictive control (MPC) has proven in simulation studies and pilot cases to be a promising approach to reduce the energy consumption of buildings, while improving occupants’ comfort. However, there is still a lack of implementing MPC in real, large-scale and fully occupied buildings, to further prove this potential in real building operations. This paper describes the implementation and operation of MPC in a large-sized, low-energy office building. The MPC controller was implemented in a section of the building during a three-month test period from February to April 2020, controlling the supply temperature of heating circuits for thermally activated building systems (TABS). Its performance was compared to the default rule-based control which is active in the other building sections. This allows for a detailed evaluation of MPC versus RBC under identical environmental and operational conditions. The MPC controlled building section used 30% less heating energy than RBC controlled building sections, while the existing high level of thermal comfort could be maintained. Especially in transition periods (i. e. interseasonal periods like late winter/early spring) , the MPC is superior to the conventional heating-curve based control strategy, with heating energy savings of 75%.

Why do some pregnant women not fully disclose at comprehensive psychosocial assessment with their midwife?

ProblemWhile comprehensive psychosocial assessment is recommended as part of routine maternity care, unless women engage and disclose, psychosocial risk will not be identified or referred in a timely manner. We need to better understand and where possible overcome the barriers to disclosure if we are to reduce mental health morbidity and complex psychosocial adversity. AimsTo assess pregnant women’s attitude to, and reasons for non-disclosure at, comprehensive psychosocial assessment with their midwife. MethodsData from 1796 pregnant women were analysed using a mixed method approach. After ascertaining women’s comfort with, attitude to, and non-disclosure at psychosocial screening, thematic analysis was used to understand the reasons underpinning non-disclosure. Findings99% of participants were comfortable with the assessment, however 11.1% (N = 193) reported some level of nondisclosure. Key themes for non-disclosure included (1) Normalising and negative self-perception, (2) Fear of negative perceptions from others, (3) Lack of trust of midwife, (4) Differing expectation of appointment and (5) Mode of assessment and time issues. DiscussionFactors associated with high comfort and disclosure levels in this sample include an experienced and skilled midwifery workforce at the study site and a relatively advantaged and mental health literate sample. Proper implementation of psychosocial assessment policy; setting clear expectations for women and, for more vulnerable women, extending assessment time, modifying mode of assessment, and offering continuity of midwifery care will help build rapport, improve disclosure, and increase the chance of early identification and intervention. ConclusionsThis study informs approaches to improving comprehensive psychosocial assessment in the maternity setting.

Marketing strategy of territorial branding in the context of sustainable development

The article considers aspects of formation of marketing strategy of territory branding, yak the basis of strategic development. Attention is paid to the components of the strategy of sustainable development and its interaction with the elements of the territorial product and its influence on the image of the territory. A strategic analysis of the territory was carried out on the example of Odessa, which made it possible to form priorities for the strategic development of the territory. A marketing study was conducted by residents of Odessa regarding their attitude to the existing image of the city. Two main clusters of city residents were identified, depending on their perception of the image of the territory of residence. Proposals for the development of the territory's brand have been formed. Improved classification of marketing strategies for branding territories is proposed. This approach made it possible to formulate branding strategies for the territory in accordance with the goals of sustainable development. The classification has been expanded through the following positioning strategies: strategy of socio-economic image; strategy of environmental friendliness of the territory; strategy of a unique image of the territory; strategy for the image of a territory with a high level of comfort and safety; strategy of the territory's image as an innovation hub. This allows you to form strategies for branding the territory in accordance with the goals of sustainable development of the territory.
