Volunteers Recruitment, Retention, and Performance during the CSMON-LIFE (Citizen Science MONitoring) Project and 3 Years of Follow-Up

Volunteers’ contribution to research is growing, especially since the beginning of the 21st century. Given the constant increase of Citizen Science initiatives, recruiting strategies have to be planned properly. Retention is pivotal as well, especially when time is invested in volunteers’ training. However, practically no follow-up data are available on retention after major Citizen Science initiatives. CSMON-LIFE (Citizen Science MONitoring) was a 42-month project (2014–2017) funded by the European Commission in the framework of the LIFE+ programme (LIFE13 ENV/IT/842). It aimed at increasing awareness on Citizen Science among citizens, researchers, and decision makers in Italy. During CSMON-LIFE, recruitment was based on extensive awareness raising actions on different media. In total, 5558 volunteers were engaged in different field activities during the project and its follow-up. They gathered a total of 30062 geo-referenced observations, each with an image of the reported organism. Their activities were organized in campaigns, each devoted to a different topic. This study aims at investigating volunteers’ performance and retention in the funded period of CSMON-LIFE (December 2014–November 2017) and in its after-LIFE follow-up period (December 2017–November 2020), for a total of 72 months.

Clinical features of patients with COVID19, hospitalized in a multi-somatic hospital

The prevalence of COVID-19 infection and the mortality associated with the disease are steadily progressing [1, 2]. The difficulties in diagnosing and treating COVID-19 in the context of a constant increase in the number of cases cause an urgent need to study and describe this infection, which is important for the medical and scientific community around the world. We performed an observational study of patients with COVID 19 infection, which developed during hospital treatment of another acute or exacerbation of chronic somatic pathology. We analyzed the clinical symptoms, the severity of the course of the new coronavirus infection and viral pneumonia.

Registers as the basis for data collection and evidence building

The development of medical science requires a constant increase in the effectiveness and safety of treatment. Collection of real-world data (RWD) is one way of solving these problems. Clinical registries are one of the most important parts of this process. Clinical registries allow collecting data on the use of medical technologies and monitoring the results of therapy in real clinical practice. The introduction of patient registers and the collection of RWD data into widespread medical practice can help to optimize costs in the treatment of high-cost diseases and to better plan the budget.

The evolution and revision of big deals: a review from the perspective of libraries

We study the phenomenon of the big deal, a subscription model for scientific journals that emerged at the turn of the millennium aimed especially at library consortia, which were offered the opportunity to exponentially increase their access to scientific information, thus breaking the previous trend of continuous cuts to the collections of the periodicals available in libraries. Its strengths, the expansion of the availability of content, and its impact on the diversification of use and the productivity of researchers are presented herein. Likewise, its weaknesses are highlighted, such as the constant increase in prices and the finding of the concentration of use in a limited set of content. These disadvantages have led to questioning and resulted in the evaluation of big deals, a search for alternatives, and cancellations in times of crisis. In recent years, the latter have been linked to the perception that the cost–benefit balance of big deals has been altered by the proliferation of open-access content. Finally, we address the revision of the traditional big deal through transformative agreements where subscription costs are offset by publication costs, which are intended to be a mechanism to accelerate the transition to open access.

The correspondence between shadow and test field in a four-dimensional charged Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet black hole

In this paper, we investigate the photon sphere, shadow radius and quasinormal modes of a four-dimensional charged Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet black hole. The perturbation of a massless scalar field in the black hole’s background is adopted. The quasinormal modes are gotten by the 6th order WKB approximation approach and shadow radius, respectively. When the value of the Gauss–Bonnet coupling constant increase, the values of the real parts of the quasinormal modes increase and those of the imaginary parts decrease. The coincidence degrees of quasinormal modes derived by the two approaches increases with the increase of the values of the Gauss–Bonnet coupling constant and multipole number. It shows the correspondence between the shadow and test field in the four-dimensional Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet–Maxwell gravity. The radii of the photon sphere and shadow increase with the decrease of the Gauss–Bonnet coupling constant.

Authentication of Unused Medicine Domination for NGOs

This project aims to donate medicines which are unused. The unused medicine can be donated for further utilization by a needy person. This application helps the user to donate unused medicines to NGO. Admin will login and manage members by deleting and blocking the users providing improper or expired medicines. Admin has to verify the uploaded image for their expiry date.NGO manages the stock which helps to maintain a record of the available medicine. Members can also check their previous data of medicine transactions. The donation of unused medicines is not accepted worldwide, although it is legal in some countries. A constant increase in the rate of prescription writing has prompted several charity organizations to collect a growing number of unused medicines. WHO guidelines for drug donations discourage donation of unused medicines, as this may create a number of problems. Detrimental effects of drug donations for use in emergency situations have been reported, as the arrival of unsorted, useless and expired medicines requires management and sorting, which may take up the time of health workers and eventually lead to the appearance of these drugs on the black market. However, cases of regulated donations have been reported in the USA, where several states have adopted laws in order to facilitate the redistribution of unused drugs to indigent and uninsured patients.This project aims to donate medicines which are unused.

EVALUATING THE ANTHROPOGENIC IMPACT ON THE PRUT RIVER NEAR YAREMCHE-TOWN ON THE POLLUTION LEVEL INDICES OF BOTTOM SEDIMENTS

Introduction. One of the most objective and reliable indicators of the state of pollution of the aquatic environment and the overall level of technological load on it is the content of pollutants in bottom sediments (BS). There are no large industrial enterprises in and around Yaremche-town (Ivano-Frankivsk region), so there are no significant discharges of toxic substances into the sewage system, especially directly into the river. However, every year in this picturesque cornerof Prykarpattia the number of sanatoriums, recreation centres, cottage towns and just residential buildings grows. Accord-ingly, the Prut River, which is the pearl of this region, quite often gets untreated runoff, which pollutes not only water but also settles on bottom sediments.The purpose of this study was to assess the anthropogenic load on the Prut River based on a comprehensive environmental analysis of the state of pollution of the bottom sediments of this river upstream and downstream from Yaremche.Methods. Water extracts from bottom sediments were prepared by the recommendations of the relevant regula-tions in the ratio "bottom sediments - water" as 1: 5 in terms of the dry mass of bottom sediments. Laboratory study of hydrochemical parameters of selected samples was performed by gravimetric, titrimetric, photometric and other methods of analysis.Research results. The accumulation of ammonium salts, nitrites and nitrates, which are easily soluble, in the far above the discharge site of wastewater, is obviously due to the significant sorption properties of river sludge, which prevents these ions from being washed away by the flow. At the point of discharge of wastewater from the city, the content of these ions increases and reaches a maximum at point 3 - at a distance of approx. 100 m below the discharge site. Further downstream, their number systematically decreases. A similar distribution of concentrations is observed in the case of phosphates. Their source of getting into the river also, for the most part, belongs to the housing and communal services. A significant contribution to the increased phosphate content in the sample below the discharge is made by urban wastewater, in which even after treatment the concentration of phosphate ions remains quite high. The fact of the presence of oil products in the bottom sediments at the investigated area was revealed. The constant increase in the number of road transport on the banks of this resort river inevitably leads to the ingress of products of incomplete combustion of fuel, uncontrolled spills.Conclusions. Upstream from the place of discharge into the Prut River of treated wastewater in the city of Yaremche, the concentrations of salts-pollutants of the biogenic group are formed due to uncontrolled sources of domestic sew-age. In this area, the pollution of bottom sediments is insignificant, slightly higher at the discharge site, and they are of the greatest importance below the discharge. This fact indicates the growing anthropogenic impact of coastal cities on the state of the river and in general, and pollution of bottom sediments, in particular. For the first time oil products were found in bottom sediments in the studied area. The reason for this phenomenon is the constant increase in the number of vehicles on the banks of this river.
