Modeling Parental Influence on Food Consumption among Chinese Adolescents through Self-Efficacy: A Path Analysis

This study aimed to investigate the associations between perceived parental control, perceived parental modeling and parent–teen co-decision making, and fruit and vegetable (F&V) and sugar-sweetened beverage and junk food (S&J) consumption among Chinese adolescents, and examine whether self-efficacy mediates the associations. Data were collected in a cross-sectional survey of Chinese adolescents carried out in the fall of 2019. The questionnaires were adapted from the Family Life, Activity, Sun, Health, and Eating (FLASHE) Study. Ordinary least-squares regressions and a path analysis were performed to evaluate the hypothesized associations. The final sample included 3595 Chinese adolescents (mean (SD) age, 14.67 (1.73) years; 52.82% (n = 1899) males). Perceived parental control was positively associated with adolescents’ F&V consumption, and was negatively associated with adolescents’ S&J consumption. Perceived parental modeling and parent–teen co-decision making were both positively associated with adolescents’ F&V consumption and negatively associated with their S&J consumption. Adolescents’ self-efficacy was positively associated with F&V consumption and negatively associated with S&J consumption. These results suggest that serving as a positive role model, having adolescents participate in the decision-making process, and increasing adolescents’ self-efficacy can be feasible and efficacious strategies to improve the nutritional quality of Chinese adolescents’ diets.
The Impact of Instagram Stories on Tourists’ Consumption Behavior in Smart City Night Markets

With the development of information technology in Taiwan, night markets have improved their service performance by building information technology technologies, including Wi-Fi, cloud payment and mobile payment services, and QR codes. One of the most commonly used social networking sites among young people in Taiwan is Instagram (IG). In this study, we investigated whether users trust IG to provide sufficient security, and we found that the correctness of the trust information has a significant impact on their software use. This study focused on Taiwan’’s unique night market sightseeing experience and explored the use of Instagram by night market consumers. Questionnaire surveys and systematic sampling methods were used to survey consumers, and the number of valid questionnaires was 340. The results showed that the perceived usefulness and ease of use of IG Stories affected user attitudes, and user attitudes positively impacted behavioral intentions. Moreover, the attitude of night market consumers toward IG Stories was affected by trust, which in turn adjusted user behavior intentions. This research was the first to explore the experience of night market consumers using IG Stories. We concluded that night market vendors should strengthen their trust factor in order to have a positive attitude toward consumers and foster the higher behavioral intentions of consumers, which is essential for the successful promotion and marketing of night markets.
Treatment and Survivorship Interventions to Prevent Poor Body Image Outcomes in Breast Cancer Survivors

Abstract Body image concerns often arise during and after treatment and are a major concern in up to 67% of breast cancer survivors. Negative changes in body image are a predictor of worse satisfaction with appearance and poor quality of life outcomes. Opportunities to mitigate the negative impact of cancer treatment on a patient’s body image present during preoperative education or in the neoadjuvant setting, or during surgical management, adjuvant therapy delivery, and survivorship. The surgical management of breast cancer has evolved from breast amputations to procedures that provide improved cosmesis without compromising the oncologic outcome. The advent of the sentinel lymph node biopsy and lymphatic reconstruction techniques has led to decreased axillary morbidity. Modified radiation techniques and systemic therapies tailored to subtype limit unnecessary exposure to skin and systemic toxicities. Finally, incorporating prehabilitation and survivorship support optimizes the physical and psychosocial well-being of these patients. Setting expectations, treatment de-escalation when appropriate, morbidity risk reduction and improved screening and management of psychological sequelae during survivorship can decrease breast cancer treatment’s negative impact on body image. The following review synthesizes interventions during preoperative planning, local and systemic treatment, and survivorship to prevent poor body image outcomes without compromising oncologic success.
An Isothermal Hydrodynamic Lubrication Theory for Hydrostatic Extrusion and Drawing Processes With Conical Dies

R. W. Snidle, D. Dowson, and B. Parsons. The authors have carried out a straightforward plastohydrodynamic analysis of the hydrostatic extrusion process under isothermal conditions and have obtained an expression for the nondimensional extrusion pressure in terms of the geometry of the process, the state of augmentation, and the pressure coefficient of viscosity of the lubricant. They have assumed that deformation occurs homogeneously and that the workpiece is characterized by a constant value of the yield stress. For these conditions the total value of the extrusion pressure may therefore be considered to be made up of two components. The first component is simply the pressure required to perform the ideal, homogeneous deformation and is given by
Understanding the effectiveness of product placement: The roles of placement congruency and information processing

This project examined the influence of placement congruency and information processing on the effectiveness of product placement in a TV sitcom. In an experiment, we found that compared to an incongruently placed product, a congruently placed product elicited lower level of product recall, but more favorable product attitudes among respondents. Moreover, this attitudinal effect was more pronounced when the respondents engaged in incidental (vs. deliberate) information processing when they watched the TV program.
Association study between herpes zoster reporting and mRNA COVID‐19 vaccines (BNT162b2 and mRNA‐1273)

Several cases of herpes zoster (HZ) following mRNA COVID‐19 vaccination (BNT162b2 and mRNA‐1273) have been reported, and the first epidemiological evidence suggests an increased risk. We used the worldwide pharmacovigilance database VigiBase to describe HZ cases following mRNA COVID‐19 vaccination. We performed disproportionality analyses (case/non‐case statistical approach) to assess the relative risk of HZ reporting in mRNA COVID‐19 vaccine recipients compared to influenza vaccine recipients and according to patient age. To 30 June 2021, of 716 928 reports with mRNA COVID‐19 vaccines, we found 7728 HZ cases. When compared to influenza vaccines, mRNA COVID‐19 vaccines were associated with a significantly higher reporting of HZ (reporting odds ratio 1.9, 95% CI 1.8–2.1). Furthermore, we found a reduced risk of reporting HZ among under 40‐year‐old persons compared to older persons (reporting odds ratio 0.39, 95% CI 0.36–0.41). Mild and infrequent HZ reactions may occur shortly after mRNA COVID‐19 vaccination, at higher frequency than reported with influenza vaccination, especially in patients over 40 years old. Further analyses are needed to confirm this risk.
Deep Learning Analysis of Polar Maps from SPECT Myocardial Perfusion Imaging for Prediction of Coronary Artery Disease

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of deep convolutional neural networks for classifying the polar map images in Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) by considering the physician’s diagnosis as reference.Methods: 3318 images of stress and rest polar maps related to patients (67% women and 33% men) who underwent 99mTc-sestamibi MPI were collected. The images were manually labeled with normal and abnormal labels according to the doctor’s diagnosis reports. The proposed deep learning model was trained using stress and rest polar maps and evaluated for prediction of obstructive disease in a stratified 5-fold cross-validation procedure.Results: The mean values of accuracy, sensitivity, accuracy, specificity, f1 score, and the area under the roc curve were 0.7562, 0.7856, 0.5748, 0.7434, 0.6646, and, 0.8450, respectively over 5 folds using both stress and rest scans. The inclusion of rest perfusion maps significantly improved AUC of the deep learning model (AUC: 0.845; 95% CI: 0.832-0.857), compared with using stress polar maps only (AUC: 0.827; 95% CI: 0.814-0.840); P < 0.05. Conclusion: The results of the present work reveal the possible applications of deep learning for polar map images classification in SPECT MPI.
Wind Resource Assessment for the Kingdom of Bahrain

The geographical distribution of wind speed (the wind atlas) for the kingdom of Bahrain is presented, based on measured data and on calculations undertaken using WAsP,. The data used were recorded by the Meteorological Directorate at a weather station situated at Bahrain International Airport, taken on an hourly basis for a period of time extended for ten years. These data indicate an annual mean wind speed of 4.6 m/s at 10 m height and mean Weibull scale and shape parameters C and k of 5.2 m/s and 1.9 respectively. At a typical wind turbine hub height of sixty metres, these values are extrapolated to 6.9 m/s, 7.8 m/s and 1.8 respectively, which suggests that the area has a good wind resource. The wind atlas shows that several locations in the less populated central and southern regions of the main island of the archipelago of Bahrain are potentially suitable for wind energy production.
Numerical analysis of kink effect in HJFET with a heterobuffer layer

The kink effect in an AlGaAs/GaAs HJFET with a heterobuffer layer is investigated using a two-dimensional device simulator with impact ionization and deep-trap models. It is confirmed that the accumulation of holes generated by impact ionization causes the kink effect. The influence of deep levels on the kink characteristics is also investigated. The kink effect is suppressed by electron traps in the channel region through the recombination of the generated holes. On the other hand, the kink effect is enhanced by hole traps, which are positively ionized by increases in hole concentration. However, excessive hole trap concentration suppresses the accumulation of holes, due to enhanced recombination with electrons. Under such conditions the kink effect vanishes. >
Electrical Properties of Sunflower Achenes

Abstract This work contains the results of measuring the electrical properties of sunflower achenes. The interest in electrical properties of biological materials resulted in engineering research in this field. The results of measurements are used for determining the moisture content, the surface level of liquid and grainy materials, for controlling the presence of pests in grain storage, for the quantitative determination of mechanical damage, in the application of dielectric heating, and in many other areas. Electrical measurements of these materials are of fundamental importance in relation to the analysis of quantity of absorbed water and dielectric heating characteristics. It is a well-known fact that electrical properties of materials, namely dielectric constant and conductivity, are affected by the moisture content of material. This fact is important for the design of many commercial moisturetesting instruments for agricultural products. The knowledge of dielectric properties of materials is necessary for the application of dielectric heating. The aim of this work was to measure conductivity, dielectric constant and loss tangent on samples of sunflower achenes, the electrical properties of which had not been sufficiently measured. Measurements were performed under variable moisture content and the frequency of electric field ranging from 1 MHz to 16 MHz, using a Q meter with coaxial probe. It was concluded that conductivity, dielectric constant and loss tangent increased with increasing moisture content, and dielectric constant and loss tangent decreased as the frequency of electric field increased.
Impact of Solar Array Position on ISS Vehicle Charging

The International Space Station (ISS), because of its large structure and high voltage solar arrays, has a complex plasma interaction with the ionosphere in low Earth orbit (LEO). This interaction of the ISS US Segment photovoltaic (PV) power system with the LEO ionospheric plasma produces floating potentials on conducting elements of the ISS structure relative to the local plasma environment. To control the ISS floating potentials, two Plasma Contactor Units (PCUs) are installed on the Z1 truss. Each PCU discharges accumulated electrons from the Space Station structure, thus reducing the potential difference between the ISS structure and the surrounding charged plasma environment. Operations of the PCUs were intended to keep the ISS floating potential to 40 Volts (Reference 1). Exposed dielectric surfaces overlying conducting structure on the Space Station will collect an opposite charge from the ionosphere as the ISS charges. In theory, when an Extravehicular Activity (EVA) crewmember is tethered to structure via the crew safety tether or when metallic surfaces of the Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) come in contact with conducting metallic surfaces of the ISS, the EMU conducting components, including the perspiration-soaked crewmember inside, can become charged to the Space Station floating potential. The concern is the potential dielectric breakdown of anodized aluminum surfaces on the EMU producing an arc from the EMU to the ambient plasma, or nearby ISS structure. If the EMU arcs, an electrical current of an unknown magnitude and duration may conduct through the EVA crewmember, producing an unacceptable condition. This electrical current may be sufficient to startle or fatally shock the EVA crewmember (Reference 2). Hence, as currently defined by the EVA community, the ISS floating potential for all nominal and contingency EVA worksites and translation paths must have a magnitude less than 40 volts relative to the local ionosphere at all times during EVA. Arcing from the EMU is classified as a catastrophic hazard, which requires two-failure tolerant controls, i.e., three hazard controls. Each PCU is capable of maintaining the ISS floating potential below the requirement during EVA. The two PCUs provide a single failure tolerant control of ISS floating potential. In the event of the failure of one or two PCUs, a combination of solar array shunting and turning the solar arrays into their own wakes will be used to supply control of the plasma hazard (Reference 3). The purpose of this paper is to present on-orbit information that shows that ISS solar array placement with respect to the ISS velocity vector can control solar array plasma charging, and hence, provide an operational control for the plasma hazard. Also, this paper will present on-orbit information that shows that shunting of the ISS solar arrays can control solar array plasma charging, and hence, provide an additional operational control for the plasma hazard.
Paleoecology of some Upper Cretaceous Formations from Selected Wells Northwest and Middle Iraq

On the basis of the biocontents, lithological features and analysis of the microfacies, an attempt is made to establish the nature of paleoecology and depositional environments of some Upper Cretaceous formations from northwest and middle Iraq ,of which the successions are represented by the formations from the oldest to the youngest are Khasib, Tanuma, Sa'di, Mushorah, Hartha and Shiranish. A wide spectrum of environmental types distributed between deep and shallow marine environments. The implication of paleoecological interpretations for different Ostrscode species and other fossils recorded in the studied sections highlights the strong correlation between the environmental parameters in particular the depths and the lifestyle of these organisms including specific morphologies and faunal abundance.In addition to that from palaeocological point view the identified biocontents represent a southern shelf tythes fauna. ـــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــ ــــــــــــــــــــــ ةئیبلا نیواكت ضعبل ةمیدقلا ا رصعل ا يریشابطل ا ىلعلأ برغ لاـمش ةراـتخم راـبآ نـم و
Assessment of pain and maternal complications after normal vaginal delivery

Abstract Management of postpartum perineal pain is essential because untreated pain can interfere with the motherhood experience and might result in various complications. The study aimed to assess postpartum perineal and postpartum pain intensity, pharmacological management and maternal complications after normal vaginal delivery. A prospective observational study was conducted in Obstetrics and Gynaecology among 300 women who underwent normal vaginal delivery. The severity and intensity of the perineal pain in subjects were relatively high, i.e. severe on Day 1, moderate to mild pain on Day 2 and mild pain on Day 3. The overall postpartum pain was mild on all 3 d. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and analgesic combination drugs were prescribed the most for pain management, which significantly impacted pain reduction. All participants involved in the study had a postpartum haemorrhage and was the most common complication. The study concludes that there was a significant reduction in the overall intensity of pain from Day 1 to Day 3. IMPACT STATEMENT What is already known on this subject? Vaginal delivery is a multidimensional process that causes inflammation of cervical tissue and tears in the birth canal, leading to pain perception. Previous studies reported increased pain intensity on the first day after childbirth and a gradual decrease as the days pass. What do the results of this study add? The well-accepted pain scales, such as faces rating scale (FRS) and verbal numeric scale (VNS) were appropriate for assessing the intensity of perineal pain. Self-developed and validated postpartum pain assessment questionnaire (PPAQ) was beneficial for the assessment of postpartum pain. NSAIDs and analgesics combination was effective in managing the pain. What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/future research? Accurate pain assessment is essential for humanising patient care since it helps make a correct plan for required intervention, and its evaluation can help provide appropriate medications and reduce complications. Self-developed and validated PPAQ is easy to use and can be used in clinical studies to assess postpartum pain.
Cutoff Wavelengths of Ridged, Circular, and Elliptic Guides

Cutoff wavelengths of TE and TM modes in doubly ridged guides of elliptical cross section have been calculated using an exact method. Closed-form expressions in terms of Mathieu functions have been obtained for the cutoff frequencies and eigenfunctions describing the field distribution for different modes. These solutions are further extended to include the case of doubly and quadruply ridged guides of circular cross section and to calculate the slot coupling of two waveguides with semielliptical or circular cross sections. The dual problem of the coaxial strip guide has also been treated using the same method.
USERS ABILITY TO SHARE KNOWLEDGE WHEN INTEGRATED IN NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT - EVIDENCE FROM THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY

ABSTRACT In technological intensive industries knowledge input from both internal and external sources is crucial (Ahuja 2000, Gulati et al. 2000, Von Hippel 2005; Thompson 2005). A highly well informed and increasingly recognized source of knowledge is users of these technological products. By establishing and maintaining a close network with key users, firms can tap into unique knowledge, which can be useful in product development processes (Urban and von Hippel 1988, Shah 2000, Rothwell 1994). Previous studies have here pointed to the professional capabilities of users, which may generate a community of common understanding and professional frame of reference with in-house industry staff, which promote knowledge sharing (Wenger and Snyder 2000, Lynn et. al. 1996, Franke and Shah 2002, Gulati 1998). This stream of literature acknowledge industry? s possibilities to tap into specific knowledge, there is however a gab in exploring users competences beyond their profession. Especially in down stream product development users may generate general experiences about process optimization from inclusion in the development process. This study aims at meeting this gab by exploring users ability to share knowledge about their professional experiences, but also concerning issues, which go beyond their pre-defined role. The overall research question for this paper is therefore: Can users ability to share their knowledge obtained in product development integration be differentiated by topic area? Are topic areas related to their own professional frame of reference easier transferred, than more general experiences about the
BRE12-158: A Postneoadjuvant, Randomized Phase II Trial of Personalized Therapy Versus Treatment of Physician's Choice for Patients With Residual Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

PURPOSE Patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) with residual disease after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) have high risk of recurrence with prior data suggesting improved outcomes with capecitabine. Targeted agents have demonstrated activity across multiple cancer types. BRE12-158 was a phase II, multicenter trial that randomly allocated patients with TNBC with residual disease after NAC to genomically directed therapy versus treatment of physician choice (TPC). PATIENTS AND METHODS From March 2014 to December 2018, 193 patients were enrolled. Residual tumors were sequenced using a next-generation sequencing test. A molecular tumor board adjudicated all results. Patients were randomly allocated to four cycles of genomically directed therapy (arm A) versus TPC (arm B). Patients without a target were assigned to arm B. Primary end point was 2-year disease-free survival (DFS) among randomly assigned patients. Secondary/exploratory end points included distant disease-free survival, overall survival, toxicity assessment, time-based evolution of therapy, and drug-specific outcomes. RESULTS One hundred ninety-three patients were randomly allocated or were assigned to arm B. The estimated 2-year DFS for the randomized population only was 56.6% (95% CI, 0.45 to 0.70) for arm A versus 62.4% (95% CI, 0.52 to 0.75) for arm B. No difference was seen in DFS, distant disease-free survival, or overall survival for the entire or randomized populations. There was increased uptake of capecitabine for TPC over time. Patients randomly allocated later had less distant recurrences. Circulating tumor DNA status remained a significant predictor of outcome with some patients demonstrating clearance with postneoadjuvant therapy. CONCLUSION Genomically directed therapy was not superior to TPC for patients with residual TNBC after NAC. Capecitabine should remain the standard of care; however, the activity of other agents in this setting provides rationale for testing optimal combinations to improve outcomes. Circulating tumor DNA should be considered a standard covariate for trials in this setting.
