Abstract:
Family members of hazardous or harmful alcohol drinkers suffer many consequences of their relative’s alcohol-drinking behaviors and risk developing their own hazardous alcohol drinking behaviors. Studies of alcohol-related healthcare problems have mainly focused on patients, with few studies on their family members. This cross-sectional study explored factors predicting hazardous alcohol drinking behaviors in family members of hazardous alcohol-drinker patients. Participants were recruited from four randomly chosen hospitals in Taiwan. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires on family members’ alcohol use, perceived stress, coping mechanisms, social support, health, quality of life, protective factors against hazardous alcohol drinking, facilitative factors for hazardous alcohol drinking, and demographics. The 318 family members who participated in this study were divided by their Chinese-version Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test scores into two groups: hazardous alcohol drinkers (score ≥ 8) and non-hazardous alcohol drinkers (score < 8). Significant factors predicting hazardous alcohol drinking behaviors were found by logistic regression to be the frequency of using general coping mechanisms (OR = 1.29, p < 0.01), the frequency of using strategies to cope with patients’ drinking-related behaviors (OR = 0.89, p < 0.01), factors protecting against hazardous alcohol drinking (OR = 0.76, p < 0.01) and factors facilitating hazardous alcohol drinking (OR = 1.52, p < 0.01). Interventions should be designed for family members of hazardous alcohol drinkers to address these four significant predictors.

Abstract:
Background US and Northern European studies have found a higher prevalence of alcohol-related problems among men who have sex with men (MSM) than among the general population of men (GPM). However, most of them relied on traditional sampling methods, not profiting from MSM dating apps and websites for recruitment. Besides, analogous comparisons in Southern Europe are lacking. Objective This study aimed to compare several indicators of excessive drinking between MSM and GPM in Spain. Methods Overall, 5862 MSM were recruited through dating apps or websites for the Méthysos Project, and 10,349 GPM were recruited using probability sampling via the Household Survey on Alcohol and Drugs in Spain from 2018 to 2020. The outcomes were the prevalence of hazardous or harmful drinking (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test [AUDIT] ≥8), hazardous drinking (AUDIT-Consumption ≥4), harmful drinking (AUDIT-Problem ≥4), regular hazardous drinking (>14 standard drinks per week), and monthly binge drinking. The prevalence of excessive drinking indicators was calculated for MSM and GPM and compared using the adjusted prevalence ratio (aPR). Two different aPRs and their 95% CIs were estimated using Poisson regression models with robust variance. The first was adjusted for sociodemographic characteristics, and the second was adjusted for the aforementioned covariates plus other drug use. Results The prevalence of hazardous or harmful drinking was 15.6% (913/5862) among MSM versus 7.7% (902/10,349) among GPM. After adjusting for sociodemographic covariates, the risk was higher in MSM than in GPM for harmful or hazardous drinking (aPR 1.8, 95% CI 1.6-2.0), harmful drinking (aPR 2.3, 95% CI 2.0-2.7), and binge drinking (aPR 1.7, 95% CI 1.5-1.9); the same in both populations for hazardous drinking (aPR 0.9, 95% CI 0.9-1.0); and higher in GPM than in MSM for regular hazardous drinking (aPR 0.7, 95% CI 0.6-0.9). The relative excess risk of harmful drinking and binge drinking among MSM tended to increase with increasing education level and size of the place of residence, and the opposite was true for the deficit risk in regular hazardous drinking. Additional adjustment for other drug use greatly buffered the relative excess risk in harmful drinking and binge drinking in MSM, while it deepened its deficit risk in regular hazardous drinking. Conclusions The use of web-based resources allowed recruiting a large sample of MSM. The risk of hazardous or harmful drinking was 80% greater in MSM than in GPM, which was mainly because of the higher risk of harmful drinking and binge drinking among MSM. Nearly 1 in 6 MSM would benefit from early brief alcohol intervention procedures. The subgroup with harmful or binge drinking combined with other drug use is an important contributor to excess MSM risk in hazardous or harmful drinking and must be a priority target for harm reduction interventions.

Abstract:
Lesbian women engage in more hazardous drinking than heterosexual women yet we know relatively little about what explains this disparity. In the present study, race, socioeconomic status (SES), minority stress, general psychological processes, and distress were examined as pathways to hazardous drinking among young (18–35 years) Black and non-Hispanic White lesbian women. We used the psychological mediation framework adaptation of minority stress theory and the reserve capacity model as theoretical underpinnings of the conceptual model in the current study. Self-identified lesbian participants ( N = 867) completed a onetime online survey that assessed race, SES, perceived sexual minority discrimination, proximal minority stress (concealment, internalized homophobia, lack of connection to lesbian community), rumination, social isolation, psychological distress, drinking to cope, and hazardous drinking. Cross-sectional results demonstrated that being Black was associated with hazardous drinking via sequential mediators of rumination, psychological distress, and drinking to cope. SES was associated with hazardous drinking via sequential mediators of sexual minority discrimination, proximal minority stress, rumination, social isolation, psychological distress, and drinking to cope. Understanding these pathways can aid researchers and clinicians studying and working with lesbians who are at risk for hazardous drinking.

Abstract Aims To examine the continuing role of daily popular social media use in youth hazardous alcohol consumption in four countries across continents. Methods A web-based survey was given to youths aged 15–25 in the USA (n = 1212), South Korea (n = 1192), Finland (n = 1200) and Spain (n = 1212). Hazardous alcohol use (alcohol use disorders identification test-C) was the dependent variable. Main independent variables measured daily use of different social media services. Controls included compulsive Internet use, offline belonging, psychological distress, impulsivity, risk-taking, age and gender. Linear regression models and mediation analyses with bootstrapping were done for each country. Results Daily use of Facebook and Instagram was associated with higher hazardous alcohol use among youths in Finland, South Korea and Spain. Daily instant messaging was related to higher hazardous alcohol use among South Korean and Finnish youths. Daily YouTube use was associated with higher hazardous alcohol use among youths in South Korea, but lower hazardous alcohol use among youths in the USA and Finland. Daily Twitter use was related to lower hazardous drinking among youths in Finland but higher hazardous drinking among youths in Spain. The mediation analyses revealed that uploading pictures to social media is a possible facilitator of social media-related hazardous alcohol use among youths in the USA and Spain. Conclusion Certain social media platforms might inspire and/or attract hazardously drinking youths, contributing to the growing opportunities for social media interventions.

Abstract:
Despite research linking substance use/abuse to pejorative academic outcomes, the underlying behavior and cognitive mechanisms responsible for this association are largely unknown. This study addresses a specific call for understanding learning strategies and skills associated with substance alcohol use/abuse. Four hundred fifty undergraduates (59.6% female) completed measures of hazardous drinking behavior and student learning strategies. Approximately 35.3% of the sample reported hazardous drinking scores in the clinical range. Bivariate correlations and a regression framework were utilized to understand the associations among hazardous drinking behavior, academic skills/strategies, and student liabilities. In the present study, hazardous drinking behavior was associated with 4 learning strategies: note-taking/listening skills, test-taking strategies, organizational techniques, and time management. Moreover, hazardous drinking behavior was associated with 2 student liabilities: low academic motivation and concentration/attention difficulties. Results from follow-up analyses suggest that only organizational techniques and concentration/attention difficulties predicted hazardous drinking behavior. Promising areas for future research and potential intervention targets are discussed.

Abstract:
Background: Previous studies have associated certain risk factors with hazardous drinking in students. However, big cultur- al and geographical differences exist regarding alcohol use. Objectives: To determine whether or not there was a difference in hazardous drinking between Belgian and South African university students and to establish the risk factors that contribute to hazardous drinking in university students (calculated using the AUDIT-C) from a developing country (South Africa) and a developed country (Belgium). Methods: An online survey assessing hazardous drinking among university students in South Africa (University of KwaZu- lu-Natal, UKZN) and Belgium (University of Antwerp, UoA) was conducted, using the shortened version of the Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test (AUDIT-C). Risk factors in males and females for hazardous drinking were explored using multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results: In total, 499 students were included in the study (250 UoA and 249 UKZN students). A significant higher amount of male (94.8%) as well as female (92.4%) UoA students drank alcohol in the last year compared to the male (66.2%) and female (67.8%) UKZN students (p<0.001). Additionally, a significant higher amount of UoA students were hazardous drinkers, compared to the UKZN students (p<0.001). Multivaiate analysis showed that male UoA students were almost 6 times more likely to be hazardous drinkers than male UKZN students (OR=5.611, p=0.005). Female UoA students were more than twice as likely to be hazardous drinkers than female UKZN students (OR=2.371, p=0.016). Conclusion: This study found a significant difference in hazardous drinking between Belgian and South African university students.

Abstract:
Abstract Head injury is the leading cause of death and disability in trauma patients, and alcohol misuse is often associated with such injuries. Despite modern diagnostic facilities, the extent of traumatic brain injury (TBI) is difficult to assess and supplementary diagnostic tools are warranted. The contribution of alcohol misuse to traumas also needs to be elucidated, as the role of different patterns of alcohol drinking in particular has received less attention. We investigated the clinical utility of a novel serum marker of brain damage, protein S100B, as a tool for assessing TBI in patients with trauma. We also investigated the patterns of alcohol drinking among trauma patients and the trauma mechanisms in relation to blood alcohol concentration (BAC), with special emphasis on head traumas. Finally, we studied the early identification of hazardous drinkers among trauma patients. Serum protein S100B was found to be a feasible supplementary method for assessing TBI, as the latter was shown to elevate its levels significantly, the highest values being found in patients with severe injuries. S100B was also found to be elevated in patients with mild head injury, where it was associated with an increased risk of developing post-concussion symptoms (PCSs). Extracranial injuries also increased S100B values in patients with multitrauma. Accordingly, S100B was not specific to TBI. The more severe the extracranial injury, the higher the S100B value that was found. Binge drinking was found to be the predominant pattern in trauma patients. Alcohol intoxication on admission and hazardous drinking patterns were more often present in patients with head injury than in those with other types of trauma. The risk of sustaining a head trauma significantly increased with increasing BAC. The results also demonstrated that BAC on admission is the best marker of alcohol misuse in trauma patients. The BAC test depicts hazardous alcohol drinking better than conventional biochemical markers of alcohol misuse such as gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT), or mean corpuscular volume (MCV) of erythrocytes. The findings support the use of S100B as a supplementary method for assessing TBI and the use of BAC as a marker of alcohol misuse in trauma patients.

Abstract:
The current thesis aimed to explore the associations between hazardous drinking, automatic processing of alcohol-related cues and behavioural impulsivity. In addition to assessing the impact of these processes on hazardous drinking in isolation, the specific prediction of dual process models of addiction, that the association between automatic cognitive processes and hazardous drinking would be moderated by behavioural impulsivity, was also tested. These general research questions were investigated cross sectionally in young adult student populations (chapter 3), / adolescents (chapter 4), and older adults (chapter 5). The aim of the study described in chapter 6 was to investigate the effect of a priming dose of alcohol on these processes and their association with alcohol-seeking behaviour. Finally, chapter 7 was an investigation into the mediators and moderators of the effects of ego depletion on drinking behaviour from the perspective of dual process models of addiction. Automatic processing of alcohol-related cues predicted drinking behaviour in all cross sectional studies, although the specific aspects of automatic processes that predicted drinking behaviour differed. The effects of the alcohol prime and anticipated effects of alcohol on different measures of cognitive bias were inconsistent, and automatic cognitive processes only predicted ad-lib drinking in non-intoxicated individuals. Impulsivity only had a direct association with drinking within the sample of older adults, and neither the alcohol prime or ego depletion manipulation increased either measure of behavioural impulsivity. There was evidence that the alcohol priming effect was the result of general impairments in executive cognitive functioning. In the cross sectional studies support for dual process models of addiction was only found in the adolescent sample, in which impulsive decision making moderated the association between attentional bias and problem drinking in adolescents. There was evidence that increases in automatic approach responses towards alcohol-related cues following an alcohol prime were the result of impairments in executive cognitive function. Although ego depletion resulted in increased alcohol consumption this was not due to increased behavioural control by automatic cognitive processes. The results from the current thesis offer considerable support for incentive- motivational models of addiction, arid-highlight the importance of the roles of specific aspects of automatic cognitive processing in different samples. As behavioural impulsivity was only associated with hazardous drinking in older adults this suggests that cumulative experience with alcohol is necessary before these processes impact behaviour. Although support for dual process models of addiction was only found in adolescents, previous research would suggest that the predictions of these models are most likely to be found in such samples.

Abstract:
This thesis investigated drinking patterns in the Russian city of Novosibirsk, with a specific focus on hazardous drinking. It explored the relationship between hazardous drinking and social-economic characteristics, depressive symptoms and self-reported health. The study also provided an in-depth description of drinking patterns, consumption of ‘surrogate’ alcohol, and perceptions of the Russian drinking culture and the state’s alcohol policies. The research used a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods. First, it assessed alcohol consumption and drinking patterns using data from the HAPIEE (Health, Alcohol and Psychosocial factors In Eastern Europe) cohort. Second, a series of 44 semi-structured interviews were conducted with men and women sampled from the HAPIEE cohort. Third, 40 semi-structured interviews were conducted among clients of an alcohol treatment facility. These interviews were focused on hazardous drinking. The main findings were as follows. First, hazardous drinking was common among men, but rare among women (30% of men and 1% of women reported binge drinking, 19% of men and 1% of women reported problem drinking, and 9% of men and less than 1% of women reported more than two negative consequences of drinking). Second, hazardous drinking was associated with lower education (e.g. men with secondary education were 1.9 times more likely to binge drink than men with university education), unemployment, poor health (men and women rating their health as good were more likely to binge than people with poor health), and with certain occupations (e.g. drivers or construction workers were likely to report binge drinking). Third, high accessibility of alcohol and a need to relieve withdrawal symptoms were common reasons for surrogate consumption given in interviews by participants from alcohol treatment facility. Finally, the Russian drinking culture was perceived as characterised by heavy drinking and strongly influenced by the interplay of individual and structural factors.

Abstract:
This thesis details a continuing body of research investigating the contribution of personality to disordered eating and alcohol abuse in young women. There is growing evidence of high levels of reward sensitivity in women with both disorders, and high levels of punishment sensitivity in dysfunctional eating women. However, it is unlikely that personality alone accounts for the development of such dysfunctional behaviour. Two studies were conducted to further examine the contribution of reward and punishment sensitivity to these disorders. In the first study, 443 university women completed self-report measures of alcohol use, dysfunctional eating, reinforcement sensitivity, parental drinking, family environment and maternal eating. Reward and punishment sensitivity were better predictors of disordered behaviour than family factors, although maternal dysfunctional eating significantly increased the risk of daughters' dysfunctional eating. Punishment sensitive daughters of bulimic mothers reported the highest level of bulimic symptoms themselves. Punishment sensitivity also functioned as a partial pathway variable between family risk and disordered eating. Given the stronger contribution of personality to disordered behaviour, a second study was conducted in which 131 women completed behavioural tasks under conditions of reward and punishment. Performance on a computerised measure of punishment sensitivity was associated with greater levels of dysfunctional eating but not drinking. However, performance on a card-sorting task of reward sensitivity failed to correlate with self-reported reward sensitivity or disordered behaviour. It was concluded that an innate sensitivity to reward increases the risk of disorders characterised by strong approach tendencies, whilst high punishment sensitivity, perhaps due to a chaotic family, increases the risk of dysfunctional eating, particularly daughters of eating disordered mothers.

Abstract:
Background University can be stressful, and some students use alcohol to handle their stress. The alcohol consumption in our youth affects future alcohol habits. Caregivers experience and attitude towards alcohol affects patients care and treatment. Purpose To investigate the stress level and number of hazardous drinkers among physiotherapy students at Uppsala Universitet. It was also to investigate the difference between the genders regarding stress and alcohol consumption, also the correlation between stress and alcohol consumption. Design and method This was a cross-sectional study with a correlating and comparative design where physiotherapy students answered a survey regarding stress and alcohol consumption. Results In this survey, 176 students participated of which 169 were analyzed. Twenty-one percent had a high stress level and 30% had a hazardous drinking. The women were more stressed (p=0,02), but no difference was seen between the genders regarding alcohol consumption (p=0,06). There was no correlation between stress and alcohol consumption for the whole group (r= 0,22, p=0,78), for women (r=0,12, p=0,21) or for men (r=-0,12, p=0,34). Conclusion A moderate to high stress level was common and 35% had a hazardous drinking or an abuse/dependence. The women had a higher stress level, but the alcohol consumption was similar between the sexes. There was no correlation between stress and alcohol consumption. However, interventions against stress and alcohol could be necessary since these students will have an important role in the future.

Abstract:
The Water Safety Planning developed by the World Health Organization (WHO), is a document in which all hazardous events and their associated hazards must be listed and given a score according to their frequency of occurency and severity, by a risk assessment approach. For the most critical problems (those with the highest scores), control measures must be proposed. So as to achieve assertive control measures, Hidrosan has created and defined the so-called macro causes (external to the water supply system, infrastructural, operational, and related to the standard operational processes) associated with each of the identified hazardous events.

Abstract:
The presence of pathogenic protozoa in surface water sources is widely known and reported in literature. In conventional water treatment plants (WTPs), as most of the Brazilian WTPs, filters are considered the main barrier to such microorganisms. As part of the elaboration of Water Safety Plans (WSP), diagnostics were carried out in the filtration units of six different WTPs in Brazil, with the identification of hazardous events that may contribute to the presence of hazard (protozoa and other pathogenic microorganisms) in the treated water. All WTPs had at least one hazardous event related to filtration units. Such events are mainly of hydraulic or infrastructural nature; or, in some cases, operational. Control measures were indicated to control associated risks, which are usually high, since the effectiveness of disinfection is reduced when filters do not perform properly. Operational measures were able to increase water safety in very short term, whilst infrastructural measures may demand a longer period to be implemented.

Abstract:
Density measurements have long been used within the scope of process and product quality control in a variety of applications and industries. In the petroleum industry, measuring the density or specific gravity of liquid fuels has been reported to be the preferred method for both accuracy and ease of use, for example in blending operations. In the drinking water, beverage and pharmaceutical industries, density measurement is an important quality related fluid parameter. To see wide spread use, a measurement technology must not only be capable of accurately monitoring a parameter, but it must do so in an economical way. This paper explores laboratory and field hazardous area applications of a newly developed MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical System) technology for density measurement. This microfluidic sensor, based on the Coriolis principle, has on-chip density / specific gravity, temperature and viscosity measurement capabilities, as will be demonstrated in the experimental results. These very compact MEMS devices are immune to vehicular vibration and have an extremely fast response time, due their high resonant frequencies. The ability to differentiate between types of fuels such as gasoline, ethanol, methanol, diesel, biodiesel, butanol, and to detect water and air contamination using density measurement, will be demonstrated. Concentrations of fuel blends such as E85 and others can be accurately determined. The density of liquid ingredients, additives and pharmaceutical liquids can be measured with high reproducibility. Measuring fluids under high flow rates is accommodated with an internal by-pass design. An intrinsically safe Class 1 Div 1 (or Zone 0) circuit has been developed to enable use of this technology with flammable liquids or in explosion hazardous atmospheres.

Abstract:
The use, protection and management of water resources belong to the most urgent among global environmental problems of our time. Today, the civilization clearly realizes the need for careful management of water resources, maintaining and restoring its quality. Water quality determines the possibility of its use in various fields of human activity. For Ukraine problems of water sector are also acute and urgent. Low efficiency of water use, poor drinking water quality, nitrate contamination of water resources, poor condition of water bodies in Ukraine require more foreign experience in this sphere, especially the EU experience. The purpose of our scholarly work is to explore actual problems of harmonization of water legislation of Ukraine with the requirements of EU water policy and development of proposals for the improvement of Ukrainian legislation. Main features of harmonization of Ukrainian legislation in the water resources management sphere with EU law and prospects for implementation of principles of EU Water Framework Directive were analyzed. As a result of the study the ways of implementation of positive foreign experience of water objects management in Ukraine are considered. Considering the scale of ecological crisis in Ukraine the necessity of forming a new system of economic regulators of nature is obvious. Such system must not only accumulate funds for urgent actions, but primarily encourage economic entities to protect the natural environment. We consider it appropriate to introduce mandatory environmental insurance for operators of environmentally hazardous activities.

Abstract:
In the past ten years, more and more robots are developed. Some are used for hazardous operation and others are used for industrial automation purposes, such as humanoid robot and industrial robot. However, there is another type of robot which is called assistive humanoid robot. The assistive humanoid robot looks very similar to human’s body that can help human to finish some daily tasks, such as moving heavy things, walking up stairs and raising your hand, etc. Besides, the assistive robot absolutely does a great help if it is applied to the patient who are suffering from the severe diseases, or who has difficulty to move his/her arm or leg. The robot can assist the disable arm or leg in moving again. So, people can use this device to manipulate the disable hand to do some easy tasks, such as holding cup for water drinking, or picking and placing some light items [2] Also, it can be used as a device to provide a safe and intensive rehabilitation training for the patients, and it has been proved that assistive robot is effective in assisting the therapist [1][6]. The assistive humanoid robot not only helps patients for recovery or assists patients for simple everyday tasks, but also effectively promotes human’s living quality. However, even though the assistive robot for elbow, wrist or leg has already been widely developed and used in hospital trials, few projects and assistive robotic devices for hand rehabilitation are found in the market [3][7].

Abstract:
Future water demand is predicted to increase while current resources are continuously depleted. In this paper, a standalone off-the-grid water purification system is designed to provide an economically sustainable model for delivering clean drinking water is presented. This system utilizes concentrated heat generated by solar parabolic troughs to boil brackish water for the distillation process. The water vapor is then condensed into clean drinkable water in a water collection tank. The process of designing and optimizing the solar-powered distillation system (Heat exchanger, boiler, parabolic troughs, tracking and control system, photovoltaic panels and vapor and the heat transfer fluid pumps) and specifically the process of fabricating the parabolic trough is presented and discussed in details. Two troughs were designed and fabricated each with an area of 1.5 m2 (16 ft2). Each trough provides approximately 125 watts/ft. Duratherm 450, a non-toxic, non-hazardous heat transfer fluid (HTF) is selected for the solar trough hot loop. Additional system performance analysis was conducted through experimental testing and through a virtual system model utilizing the Engineering Equation Solver (EES). EES is used to model the heat transfer process of the overall distillation system and a range of optimum HTF flow rates were determined. The experimental results show an increase in water temperature within the boiler for the new range of HTF flow rates. In addition, the results show that the solar troughs are more robust, less expensive to manufacture, operate at a higher temperature and provide a higher performance when compared to a system that utilizes thermal panels. The overall system manufacturing cost is approximately $6000, which includes tracking, a control system and other required distillation components. This system is designed to fit into a standard 20-foot shipping container for ease of transportation worldwide.

Abstract:
There has been considerable public interest in reports on harmful alcohol consumption of higher educated females. This study assesses the robustness of this finding with representative German data using ten different indicators of alcohol consumption. This cross-sectional study used data of the Epidemiological Survey on Substance Abuse from 2012. 4,225 females and 3,239 males represent the German population aged 18–64. It presents ten indicators of alcohol consumption by sex and education and provides group specific means and 95 %-confidence intervals. The main results are: (1) Higher educated males and females are drinking alcohol more frequently than lower educated males and females. (2) When drinking, higher educated males and females tend to drink less alcohol than lower educated males and females. (3) Only when using an indicator for hazardous alcohol consumption with different thresholds for males and females, the results indicate a pattern that significantly exposes hazardous alcohol consumption in the group of higher educated females. Concerning the choice of indicators, this study shows that sex-specific threshold-based indicators of alcohol consumption may lead to different conclusions as the majority of other indicators.
