| 1516 | Peridynamic Simulation of Particles Impact and Interfacial Bonding in Cold Spray Process Cold spray has recently emerged as a promising new technology for various coating, additive manufacturing, and on-site repair needs. One key challenge underlying cold spray is the proper simulation of the deposition process, for which numerous numerical studies have been carried out, but often fail to consider the interfacial adhesion. In this study, a new numerical approach on the base of peridynamics (PD) was developed to incorporate interfacial interactions as a part of the constitutive model to capture deformation, bonding, and rebound of impacting particles in one unified framework. Two models were proposed to characterize the adhesive contacts, i.e., a long-range Lenard-Johns type potential and a force-stretch relation of the interface directly derived from fracture properties of the bulk material. Using copper as the sample material, the deformation behaviors simulated by the PD-based approach were found to compare well with those from benchmark finite element method simulations. It was further demonstrated that this PD-based approach allows flexibility to realize different deposition scenarios, such as particle-substrate bonding and separation, by modulating adhesion energies. The approach provides a new numerical framework for more realistic cold spray impact simulations. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |
| 1517 | Multistate Models for the Recovery Process in the Covid-19 Context: An Empirical Study of Chinese Enterprises The Covid-19 pandemic has severely affected enterprises worldwide. It is thus of practical significance to study the process of enterprise recovery from Covid-19. However, the research on the effects of relevant determinants of business recovery is limited. This article presents a multistate modeling framework that considers the determinants, recovery time, and transition likelihood of Chinese enterprises by the state of those enterprises as a result of the pandemic (recovery state), with the help of an accelerated failure time model. Empirical data from 750 enterprises were used to evaluate the recovery process. The results indicate that the main problems facing non-manufacturing industries are supply shortages and order cancellations. With the increase of supplies and orders, the probability of transition between different recovery states gradually increases, and the recovery time of enterprises becomes shorter. For manufacturing industries, the factors that hinder recovery are more complex. The main problems are employee panic and order cancellations in the initial stage, employee shortages in the middle stage, and raw material shortages in the full recovery stage. This study can provide a reference for enterprise recovery in the current pandemic context and help policymakers and business managers take necessary measures to accelerate recovery. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |
| 1518 | Attitudes of national decision-makers towards differentiated integration in the European Union Differentiated integration (DI) in the European Union (EU) has mainly been understood as variation in participation in common policies. But DI also has implications for the nature and functioning of the EU as a polity. While temporary DI may facilitate deeper integration, permanent DI is liable to increase transaction costs and fragmentation. However, little is known about how such alternatives are assessed by decision-makers in the member states. This article uses novel quantitative and qualitative data to shed light on this question. It looks at the explanatory role of various types of opt-outs and at member states’ dependence, capacity, and identity. We find that temporary and permanent differentiation are assessed differently in the member states but neither alternative is clearly preferred. Long-term involuntary opt-outs are related to negative assessments of both forms of DI. Surprisingly, voluntary opt-outs do not seem to lead to more positive assessments of DI. We also find that the temporary DI is preferred in smaller member states, while support for permanent DI is higher in larger member states. Finally, we find differences in the effects of dependency, capacity, and identity between older and newer member states. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |

| 1521 | Severity scoring system of COVID-19 in Egyptian medical personnel vs non-medical personnel: a prospective cohort study BACKGROUND: Few studies tried to detect the risk of developing COVID-19 (corona virus disease 2019) between different groups of workers. Health care workers are more likely to have severe form of COVID infection. The objective of our study is to compare the severity scoring system of COVID infection between medical and non-medical personnel by CT (computed tomography). This study started from 1 May, 2020, to 30 December, 2021. CT study of the chest for 1200 infected patients with COVID-19 (600 were medical stuff and 600 persons of non-medical staff) was done in five health quarantine centres in Egypt. CT findings were reviewed in relation to the severity of symptoms. The results of the two groups were compared to each other. RESULTS: CT findings were more frequent and more severe in the medical staff group, including that the number of consolidative patches mixed with areas of ground glass attenuation in medical staff group was (37.2%) versus non-medical staff group was (22.2%), with p-value (*0.001), diffuse lobar involvement was in (150 severe cases) in medical staff group versus in 67 severe cases of non-medical staff group and had significant difference (p value *0.005), fibrosis (p value *0.002) and more opportunity to get severe form of infection increased in medical personnel rather than control group (p value *0.001) which may be due to limited health care facilities in protection against infection especially in developing countries and more contact during work time with infected persons and high viral load. CONCLUSION: The current study results show that severity score is higher in the medical personnel than non-medial personnel. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |
| 1522 | Informatics and the Development of Global Studies Globalization has become one of the characteristic features of our epoch. Different kinds of global problems are constantly discussed by the world community; global research in modern science is expanding uninterruptedly. Thus, global studies have gradually formed as a direction in scientific thought. They organically combine the features of differentiation and integration of scientific cognition. One possible perspective of subsequent development of global studies is their transformation in a particular sphere of knowledge. The information aspects of the global analysis of reality are bound with the progress of informatics; the present-day pandemic confirms this fact once more. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |

| 1526 | High rates of impaired quality of life and social and economic problems at 6 months after COVID-19-related ARDS PURPOSE: Assess long-term quality of life (HR-QoL) and socio-economic impact in COVID-19-related ARDS (C-ARDS) survivors. METHODS: C-ARDS survivors were followed up at 6 months in this prospective, cohort study. HR-QoL was assessed using SF-36 and EQ-5D-5L, and the socio-economic burden of COVID-19 was evaluated with a dedicated questionnaire. Clinical data were prospectively recorded. RESULTS: Seventy-nine survivors, age 63 [57-71], 84% male, were enrolled. The frequency of EQ-5D-5L reported problems was significantly higher among survivors compared to normal, in mobility, usual activities, and self-care; anxiety and depression and pain were not different. SF-36 scores were lower than the reference population, and physical and mental summary scores were below normal in 52% and 33% of the subjects, respectively. In the multivariable analysis, prolonged hospital length of stay (OR 1.45; p 0.02) and two or more comorbidities on admission (OR 7.42; p 0.002) were significant predictors of impaired “physical” and “mental” HR-QoL, respectively. A total of 38% subjects worsened social relations, 42% changed their employment status, and 23% required personal care support. CONCLUSIONS: C-ARDS survivors have long-term impairment in HR-QoL and socio-economic problems. Prolonged hospital stay and previous comorbidities are risk factors for developing health-related issues.

| 1527 | Teaching and learning languages online: Challenges and responses The outbreak of COVID-19 generated an unprecedented global push towards remote online language teaching and learning. In most contexts, language teachers and learners underwent a rapid switch to online instruction with limited resources and preparation. Their experiences demonstrate resilience, perseverance, and creativity under highly challenging conditions. This collection of studies examines the challenges that language teachers and learners have experienced in teaching and learning online, explores how they have addressed these challenges, and identifies critical lessons to help language educators better respond to emergencies like the COVID-19 pandemic. In this introductory article, we discuss the background of this special collection on teaching and learning languages online, provide a review of the growing body of research on online language education in the field, and introduce the studies published in the collection. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |
| 1528 | The impacts of COVID-19 on K-8 science teaching and teachers Some science education researchers have presented either isolated findings on specific points in time during the pandemic or non-empirical insights or suggestions for how teachers, district leaders, policymakers, and others should take up the learnings from the pandemic to move science education forward. However, there are few studies published to date that provide robust and longitudinal empirical data on what science instruction looked like throughout the pandemic and the magnitude of the impacts of the pandemic on science instruction when compared to pre-pandemic science teaching and learning. We conducted a primarily survey-based study on science instruction and enactment of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) in K-8 classrooms throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. This analysis also incorporates a longitudinal dataset from grade 6–8 teachers across California on their NGSS instruction prior to and throughout the first year of the pandemic, providing insight on instruction over multiple years before and throughout distance learning. Our findings highlight the challenges that teachers and students faced during the pandemic, as well as the significant impacts that distance learning appeared to have on science instruction and teachers’ ability to provide NGSS-aligned instruction. However, we also found that a year after the initial school closures, teachers’ science instruction began to show improvements both in the frequency of science instruction (how often they were able to provide science instruction through distance learning) and the quality of science instruction (how often teachers were able to provide instruction that was aligned with the goals of the NGSS). Implications of this work are far reaching and may impact teachers, students, administrators, policymakers, professional learning providers, and curriculum developers regardless of whether science instruction occurs through distance learning or in-person moving forward. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |

Revenue management decisions are contingent upon the actions and reactions of competitors. The current study used a cross-cultural approach that compared the use of competitive intelligence by US and Turkish revenue managers by conducting a qualitative study of revenue managers in these locations. Both sets of revenue managers share a similar definition of competitive intelligence and use technology to gather competitive intelligence. The findings also suggest integrity issues for data in Istanbul and that ethical challenges are a central part of competitive intelligence usage. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |
| 1531 | The impact of anthropomorphism on customer satisfaction in chatbot commerce: an experimental study in the food sector Food retailers are lagging behind other industries in implementing innovative mobile solutions offering their services and purchasing processes on their online platforms. Chatbots can be leveraged as an application to provide customer-centric services while retailers benefit from collecting consumer data. Previous literature on chatbot technology provides evidence that human characteristics enhance the customer experience. This is the first experimental study to investigate consumer attitudes and satisfaction with anthropomorphic chatbots in food e-commerce. A sample of 401 participants was tested to verify the proposed hypotheses. The test group interacted with a standard chatbot without human-like characteristics, while the control group communicated with the anthropomorphically designed agent. The results confirm the vast potential of anthropomorphic cues in chatbot applications and show that they are positively associated with customer satisfaction and mediated by the variables enjoyment, attitude, and trust. The findings suggest that to remain competitive, food retailers should immediately adopt innovative technologies for their omnichannel strategy and incorporate anthropomorphic design cues. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |
| 1532 | Trauma and repair in the museum: an introduction Despite its considerable investment in questions of memory, attachments between subjects and objects, and trauma and its treatment, psychoanalysis has been largely sidelined in the unfolding reassessment of museums. This introduction to the special issue on ‘Trauma and Repair in the Museum’, which aims to reintroduce psychoanalytic perspectives in these debates, outlines the issues around reparation that surround the modern museum due to the traumatic legacies of coloniality. Timothy P. Brown’s notion of how the trauma of displacement and dissociation effects both objects and communities is key to our consideration of the museum as symptomatic of trauma, as is Cathy Caruth’s reading of history as trauma. Referring to several artists’ practices, such as Lisa Reihana, Erika Tan, and especially Kader Attia’s concept of repair, as well as a number of museological approaches to restitution, we expand on the complexities of ongoing coloniality and its implication with museums as institutions, practices of collection and display, and highly charged psychoactive spaces. Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick’s rereading of Melanie Klein’s notion of reparation allows us to posit a form of decolonial repair that involves the assembling of damaged part-objects into ‘something like a whole [but] not necessarily like any preexisting whole’ (2003, p. 128, original emphasis). This approach enables a reckoning with trauma and its legacies that keeps them visible without ruling out processes of reparation. We follow our outline of trauma and repair in the museum with summaries of our contributors’ articles, which expose and unpack the mutual implication of collections, institutions and displays with patriarchy, colonialism and racial capitalism through the critical discourse of contestation, while also acknowledging the potential of museums to overcome their traumatic origins. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |
| 1533 | Contemporary Management of Urinary Tract Infections in Children PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Urinary tract infection (UTI) in children is a major source of office visits and healthcare expenditure. Research into the diagnosis, treatment, and prophylaxis of UTI has evolved over the past 10 years. The development of new imaging techniques and UTI screening tools has improved our diagnostic accuracy tremendously. Identifying who to treat is imperative as the increase in multi-drug-resistant organisms has emphasized the need for antibiotic stewardship. This review covers the contemporary management of children with UTI and the data-driven paradigm shifts that have been implemented into clinical practice. RECENT FINDINGS: With recent data illustrating the self-limiting nature and low prevalence of clinically significant vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), investigational imaging in children has become increasingly less frequent. Contrast-enhanced voiding urosonogram (CEVUS) has emerged as a useful diagnostic tool, as it can provide accurate detection of VUR without the need of radiation. The urinary and intestinal microbiomes are being investigated as potential therapeutic drug targets, as children with recurrent UTIs have significant alterations in bacterial proliferation. Use of adjunctive corticosteroids in children with pyelonephritis may decrease the risk of renal scarring and progressive renal insufficiency. The development of a vaccine against an antigen present on Escherichia coli may change the way we treat children with recurrent UTIs. SUMMARY: The American Academy of Pediatrics defines a UTI as the presence of at least 50,000 CFU/mL of a single uropathogen obtained by bladder catheterization with a dipstick urinalysis positive for leukocyte esterase (LE) or WBC present on urine microscopy. UTIs are more common in females, with uncircumcised males having the highest risk in the first year of life. E. coli is the most frequently cultured organism in UTI diagnoses and multi-drug-resistant strains are becoming more common. Diagnosis should be confirmed with an uncontaminated urine specimen, obtained from mid-stream collection, bladder catheterization, or suprapubic aspiration. Patients meeting criteria for imaging should undergo a renal and bladder ultrasound, with further investigational imaging based on results of ultrasound or clinical history. Continuous antibiotic prophylaxis is controversial; however, evidence shows patients with high-grade VUR and bladder and bowel dysfunction retain the most benefit. Open surgical repair of reflux is the gold standard for patients who fail medical management with endoscopic approaches available for select populations. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |
| 1534 | Cybersecurity of medical devices: new challenges arising from the AI Act and NIS 2 Directive proposals Cyberattacks on the IT infrastructure of hospitals, electronic health records or medical devices that have taken place during the COVID-19 pandemic reaffirmed how crucial it is to ensure cybersecurity in the healthcare sector. Medical devices are regulated in the European Union (EU) through vertical product-specific legislation, such as the Medical Device Regulation (MDR), among others. The MDR foresees safety requirements implying cybersecurity obligations for medical device manufacturers. In 2021, the EU legislator put forward the Network and Information Security System Directive reform (NIS 2) and the Artificial Intelligence Act (AIA) proposal, containing additional cybersecurity requirements applicable to medical devices. This article analyses how the new reforms interact with the existing legislation from a cybersecurity perspective. The research finds that parallel provision of analogous cybersecurity requirements (especially on notification requirements) could lead to regulatory overlapping, fragmentation, and uneven levels of protection of individuals in the EU internal market. In the “Recommendations and conclusions”, the article provides policy recommendations to the EU legislator to help mitigate these risks. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |

| 1537 | Thymus CT-grading and rebound hyperplasia during COVID-19 infection: a CT volumetric study with multivariate linear regression analysis BACKGROUND: The importance of thymic CT-grading and presence of thymic rebound hyperplasia during COVID-19 infection were only investigated in a few studies. This multivariate study aims to evaluate the relation between thymus CT-grading and rebound during COVID-19 infection and the following: (1) the patients' age, (2) the patients' blood lymphocytic count, (3) the CT-volumetry of the diseased lung parenchyma, (4) the patient's clinical course and prognosis, and finally (5) the final radiological diagnosis. RESULTS: Multicenter retrospective analyses were conducted between March and June 2021 on 325 adult COVID-19 patients with positive PCR results and negative history of malignant or autoimmune diseases. They included 186 males and 139 females (57.2%:42.8%). Their mean age was 40.42 years ± 14.531 SD. Three consulting radiologists performed CT-grading of the thymus gland (grade 0–3) and CT-severity scoring (CT-SS) of the pathological lung changes in consensus. Two consulting pulmonologists correlated the clinical severity and blood lymphocytic count. Pearson correlation coefficient (r) and linear regression analyses were statistically utilized. Sub-involuted thymus (with CT-grade 0:2) was detected in 42/325 patients (12.9%); all of them had a mild clinical course and low CT-SS (0–1). Thymic rebound hyperplasia was the only positive CT-finding in 15/325 patients (4.6%) without pathological lung changes. A weak positive significant correlation was proved between thymic grade and patient's age, clinical course, and CT-SS (r = 0.217, 0.163, and 0.352 with p ≤ 0.0001, < 0.0001, and 0.002, respectively). A weak negative significant correlation was found between thymic grade and lymphocytic count (r = − 0.343 and p ≤ 0.0001). A strong positive significant correlation was encountered between clinical severity against patients' age and CT-SS (r = 0.616 and 0.803 with p ≤ 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: The presence of sub-involuted thymus or thymic rebound should not be radiologically overlooked in COVID-19 patients. During COVID-19 infection, the presence of sub-involuted thymus with low CT-grading (0–2) was correlated with young age groups, low CT-severity scoring, mild clinical course, and better prognosis (good prognostic factor). It was seldom seen in old hospitalized patients. Atypically, it was also correlated with normal lymphocytic count or even lymphocytosis. The thymic rebound could be the only positive CT-finding even during the absence of lung involvement. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |

| 1539 | Comparison of anti-peptide and anti-protein antibody-based purification techniques for detection of SARS-CoV-2 by targeted LC-MS/MS The COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated exploration of alternative testing methods for detection of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) to ensure clinical laboratories can continue to provide critical testing results. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is established in many clinical laboratories due its high specificity and sensitivity, making it a logical alternative methodology. However, matching the sensitivity of quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) remains challenging, which forced utilization of antibody-based enrichment prior to targeted LC-MS/MS analysis. When utilizing antibody purification techniques, investigators must decide whether to enrich the target protein or peptides, but there are few studies comparing the two approaches to assist in this decision-making process. In this work, we present a comparison of intact protein and peptide antibody-based purification for LC-MS/MS based detection of SARS-CoV-2. We have found that protein purification yields more intense LC-MS/MS signals, but is also less specific, yielding higher noise and more background when compared to peptide purification techniques. Therefore, when using traditional data analysis techniques, the enrichment technique that provides superior sensitivity varies for individual peptides and no definitive overall conclusion can be made. These observations are corroborated when using a novel machine learning approach to determine positive/negative test results, which yielded superior sensitivity when using protein purification, but better specificity and area under the ROC curve when performing peptide purification. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |

| 1541 | Internal Corporate Policy: CSR and Employee Satisfaction During the COVID-19 pandemic, society has undergone significant changes with implications for employee values and job satisfaction. As a reflection of social needs, corporate social practice is also changing compared to before the pandemic. This paper examines the perception of corporate social practices by personnel and their impact on staff satisfaction. The empirical study carried out in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan allowed the authors to identify social practices that influence the level of personnel satisfaction with professional activity before and after the pandemic. The research determined general tendencies and differences in the perception of social practices with the most significant personnel satisfaction in the period before and after the pandemic. The authors also developed recommendations that should be taken into account when forming corporate social practices. The study’s novelty is the investigation of an empirical relationship between the levels of satisfaction with professional activity and implemented social practices in the period before and after the pandemic. The research found that the tendencies in Russia and Kazakhstan are similar to the global trends. Employees before the pandemic were highly satisfied with their activities and corporate social responsibility practices. After the pandemic, when society is disconnected and individualized, employees are focused on material security, and social practices have no significant influence on staff satisfaction. The paper offers recommendations for companies to implement appropriate social practices for the common interests of employers and staff. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |
| 1542 | The comparison of clinical characteristics between imported and native cases of COVID-19 in China The study aimed to determine the trends in the manifestations and severity over the epidemic course of imported COVID-19 cases, with comparison to native cases. The clinical characteristics of imported and native Chinese COVID-19 cases included in the study were assessed and compared. The association was analyzed using Mann-Whitney U test for categorical variables, Kruskal-Wallis H test for continuous variables, and Spearman’s correlation test for disease severity. A total of 247 imported patients were enrolled, with an average age of 29 years, and 41.3% were female. The imported patients were younger than the native patients (29 vs 47 years) and included a lower proportion of fever (44.1%), chills (5.3%), fatigue (10.1%), leukopenia (14.6%), lymphopenia (39.3%), elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) (7.3%), elevated D-dimer (16.3%), and pneumonia (65.6%). Among patients with moderate severity, imported cases had a lower proportion of fever (44.2%), dyspnea (8.3%), and increased CRP (7.7%) than native cases. COVID-19 infection was less severe in imported cases than that in native cases, reflected by fewer clinical symptoms, fewer comorbidities, and lower overall severity. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |
| 1543 | Digital transformation of healthcare during the COVID-19 pandemic: Patients' teleconsultation acceptance and trusting beliefs The COVID-19 pandemic boosted the digital transformation of many services, including healthcare, and access to medical care using teleconsultation has increased rapidly. Thus, a growing number of online platforms have been developed to accommodate patients’ needs. This paper examines the factors that predict the intention to use medical teleconsultation by extending the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT2) with the three dimensions of trusting beliefs and self-efficacy. A survey was administered to patients who had used a teleconsultation platform during the pandemic period. As one of the largest studies to date, a sample of 1233 respondents was collected and analyzed using a partial least squares approach, often mobilized in the information systems (IS) domain. Furthermore, a deep analysis using all recommended metrics was performed. The results highlight the significance of trusting beliefs, and self-efficacy in the adoption of digital healthcare services. These findings contribute to both theory and practice in COVID-19 research. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |

| 1546 | A review on the current status and post-pandemic prospects of third-generation biofuels The rapid increase in fossil fuel depletion, environmental degradations, and industrialization have encouraged the need and production of sustainable fuel alternatives. This has led to the increase in interest in biofuels, especially third-generation biofuels produced from microalgae since they do not compete with food and land supplies. However, the global share for these biofuels has been inadequate recently, especially due to the ongoing global pandemic. Therefore, this paper offers a review of the state-of-the-art study of the production field of third-generation biofuel from microalgae. The current review aims to focus on the different aspects of algal biofuel production that requires further attention to produce it at a large scale. It was found that several strategies during the life cycle of algal biofuel production can significantly increase its quality and yield while reducing cost, energy, and other related attributes. This paper also focuses on the challenges for large-scale production of third-generation biofuels pre and post COVID-19 to better understand the barriers. The high cost of this fuel’s production and sale tends to be the major reason behind the lack of large-scale production, hence, inadequacy to meet the global need. Third-generation biofuel has so much to offer including many integrated applications and advanced uses in the future fuel industry. Therefore, it is important to cope with the ongoing circumstances and emphasize the future of algal biofuel as a sustainable source. | N/A | 2022 | | CORD-19 |
