We describe how scale space methods can be used for quantitative analysis of blood glucose concentrations from type 2 diabetes patients. Blood glucose values were recorded voluntarily by the patients over one full year as part of a self-management process, where the time and frequency of the recordings are decided by the patients. This makes a unique dataset in its extent, though with a large variation in reliability of the recordings. Scale space and frequency space techniques are suited to reveal important features of unevenly sampled data, and useful for identifying medically relevant features for use both by patients as part of their self-management process, and provide useful information for physicians.

Malnutrition–sarcopenia syndrome (MSS) might put older adults at higher risk for disability, frailty, and mortality. This study examined the prevalence and association of the self-management-process factors (i.e., self-efficacy and aging expectations) and behaviors (protein and caloric intake and sedentary and physical-activity behaviors) to MSS among older adults living in continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs). Using a cross-sectional correlational design, data of 96 CCRC residents (82.4 ± 7.4 years) were analyzed. Muscle mass, strength, function, nutritional status, sedentary time, physical activity levels, protein and caloric intake, self-efficacy for physical activity, aging expectations, and physical and mental health-related quality of life were measured. Results show that 36 (37.5%) had sarcopenia, 21 (21.9%) had malnutrition risk, 13 (13.4%) had malnutrition, and 12 (12.5%) had MSS. We also found that high time spent in sedentary behaviors (OR = 1.041; 95% CI: 1.011–1.071) was associated with higher odds of having MSS and high expectations regarding aging (OR = 0.896; 95% CI: 0.806–0.997) was associated with less likelihood of having MSS. Findings suggest that CCRC residents should be screened for MSS. Self-management interventions that consider the self-management-process factors are needed to prevent MSS and mitigate its negative outcomes among CRCC residents.

Management Issues

A Work-life balance is an important factor in the career management process. Thus, we find it interesting to focus on these issues when studying the career management process. The individuals employed in all administrations of Tbilisi districts were selected as the object of our research. The surveyed respondents were 50% of the employees. The aim of the research was to study career management issues from a gender perspective. It is important for us to find out how cultural and traditional values ​​influence career management. The findings of the research analysis were combined in three main areas. Some of the findings are related to the improvement of the organization management methods, the second part is aimed at the proper use of employees' self-management and free time, and the conclusions of the third category should be taken into account by the legislature.

Means Of Production

Company recovery is a practice developed by workers who, in the imminence of becoming unemployed, negotiate or fight for access to the means of production of bankrupting companies, and start to manage them collectively, guided by the principles of self-management.  Nevertheless, how to assess self-management in worker-recovered companies (WRCs)? The criteria selected by a bibliographic review on the concept of self-management were used in dealing with the data collected by the Brazilian WRCs national mapping. A multi-criteria decision support tool was used to build a model for analyzing and classifying the companies in three categories related to their form of management. The multi-criteria approach allowed to create an assessment of self-management practices in the WRCs studied.

Tactical Urbanism

 O urbanismo tático tem sido disseminado como uma abordagem que utiliza ações de curto prazo e de baixo custo para demonstrar possibilidades de transformação de longo prazo nas cidades. É defen­dido como uma ação em que cidadãos, com suas próprias mãos, iniciam processos de transformação, em um contexto de ineficiência dos governos e de escassez de recursos. Apesar da crescente popula­ridade, a abordagem também vem gerando contro­vérsias; assim, o objetivo deste artigo é discuti-la em um viés mais radical, enquanto abordagem urbana de ruptura do status quo, utilizando como caso o processo de autogestão de Can Batlló, em Barcelona. Can Batlló é uma antiga fábrica têxtil, desativada na década de 1960, a qual nos últimos dez anos tem sido apropriada pela comunidade local, que vem praticando um sistema de autogestão e de criação de comuns urbanos. O artigo parte da apresentação do processo de transformação da fábrica, seguindo para a discussão sobre a crítica atual do urbanismo tático e para a interpretação do caso sob o viés mais radical, o qual experimenta formas alternativas de organização social para a promoção de transforma­ções gradativas em um espaço privado, de forma a convertê-lo em um comum urbano.

The Relationship

Purpose Hearing loss self-management refers to the knowledge and skills people use to manage the effects of hearing loss on all aspects of their daily lives. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between self-reported hearing loss self-management and hearing aid benefit and satisfaction. Method Thirty-seven adults with hearing loss, all of whom were current users of bilateral hearing aids, participated in this observational study. The participants completed self-report inventories probing their hearing loss self-management and hearing aid benefit and satisfaction. Correlation analysis was used to investigate the relationship between individual domains of hearing loss self-management and hearing aid benefit and satisfaction. Results Participants who reported better self-management of the effects of their hearing loss on their emotional well-being and social participation were more likely to report less aided listening difficulty in noisy and reverberant environments and greater satisfaction with the effect of their hearing aids on their self-image. Participants who reported better self-management in the areas of adhering to treatment, participating in shared decision making, accessing services and resources, attending appointments, and monitoring for changes in their hearing and functional status were more likely to report greater satisfaction with the sound quality and performance of their hearing aids. Conclusion Study findings highlight the potential for using information about a patient's hearing loss self-management in different domains as part of clinical decision making and management planning.
