Comparative study of anthropometric parameter between sprinters and hurdlers of national level athletes

The purpose of this study was to find out the comparison between anthropometric measurement and sprinters and hurdlers in national level athlete. In this study 20 male of sprinters and 20 male hurdlers in national level athletes were taken as a sample. Various types of test used for collection of data. Primarily the data was processed with descriptive statistics. For testing hypothesis the level of significance was set at 0.05. 40 male subjects belonging to two different sports activity as twenty from sprinters and twenty from hurdlers were selected from various parts in Pune city. The population for this study was selected from male national level sprinter and hurdler, aged between 18-20 years, in Pune city. The investigation collected the name list of sprinters and hurdlers separately. 40 subjects were selected through simple random sampling from various parts of Pune city. The ages of selected subjects were 18 to 20 year. The researcher was selected 20 national level sprinters and 20 national level hurdlers. Anthropometric measurements were considered as the variables for this study were:-Anthropometric measurements (Height, weight, leg length, arm length, thigh girth). For finding the significant difference between sprinters and hurdlers on selected anthropometric variables Independent ‘t’ was used as statistical tool for this study. There was a no significant difference between anthropometric variable for weight of sprinters and hurdlers because calculated value (0.65) was less than tabulated value (2.093). (0.65<2.093) There was a no significant difference between anthropometric variable for height of sprinters and hurdlers because calculated value (.005) was less than tabulated value (2.093). (.005<2.093) There was a significant difference between anthropometric variable for arm length of sprinters and hurdlers because calculated value (5.03) was greater than tabulated value (2.093). (5.03>2.093) There was a no significant difference between anthropometric variable for leg length of sprinters and hurdlers because calculated value (-0.97) was less than tabulated value (2.093). (-0.97<2.093) There was a significant difference between anthropometric variable for thigh girth of sprinters and hurdlers because calculated value (2.69) was greater than tabulated value (2.093). (2.69>2.093).

Getting help: an exploration of student experiences with a campus program addressing basic needs insecurity

ABSTRACT There is growing awareness in higher education institutions concerning the barriers faced by students who experience food and housing insecurity, and some institutions have begun to enact programs and services to help mitigate student barriers. This qualitative study examines the perceptions of college students experiencing basic needs insecurity who accessed a short-term emergency support program at a university campus in southern California. Students reported that supportive campus relationships facilitated access to the program and that emergency services provided important support that enhanced their retention. Participants also reported a need for expansion of recruitment strategies and reconsideration of eligibility requirements. This study contributes to a broader understanding of how students lacking food, housing, and financial security navigate support services and highlights steps higher education institutions can take in response to students’ needs.

Gender bias in invention

Gender bias exists not only throughout society but also in inventing. In this study, we identify the gender of 15,752,108 inventor in USPTO to analyze gender bias in invent. There are 3,525,055 invent teams led by male inventors (who are named first on the patent), and 435,341 invent teams led by female inventors. Even through the invent teams led by male are more than those of female, gender bias is also in the invent teams led by female. Specifically, the proportion of the joint inventor of female (20.4%) is 8.4% higher than that of male (12.0%) in the invent teams led by female. Moreover, the actual proportion of the joint inventor of female (20.4%) is 7.5% higher than that of expected (12.9%). Besides, the average number of joint female inventors are 0.24 more than that of joint male inventors in the female‐led invent teams.
Prognostic Value of 18F-FDG PET/CT Metabolic Tumor Volume forComplete Pathologic Response and Clinical Outcomes after NeoadjuvantChemoradiation Therapy for Locally Advanced Esophageal Cancer

Purpose/Objective: The prognostic value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) has not yet been defined in locally advanced esophageal cancer (LAEC). This study aims to elucidate the prognostic role of PET/CT for patients treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiation (CRT) followed by esophagectomy. Materials/Methods: We retrospectively evaluated patients with LAEC treated from 2006 to 2014 with neoadjuvant CRT followed by esophagectomy. A 76 patients had pre-CRT and post CRT PET/CT scans. PET parameters maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), mean standardized uptake value (SUVmean), peak standardized uptake value (SUVpeak), metabolic tumor volume (MTV), and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) were recorded for both pre-CRT and post-CRT scans. The correlation of the measured parameters with pathologic complete response (pCR) and clinical outcomes was analyzed. Results: Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to determine the optimal cutoff values for predicting pCR. Binomial logistic regression using these optimal cutoff values was performed for pCR. A pre CRT MTV <33.1 was 4 times more likely to have a pCR (OR 4.20 95%CI 1.60 to 11.0, p=0.004). Pre CRT TLG <153 was 4.7 times more likely to have a pCR (OR 4.71 95%CI 1.78 to 12.4, p=0.002), and post CRT TLG <53.1 was 4.5 times more likely to have a pCR (OR 4.52 95%CI 1.60 to 12.7, p=0.004). On MVA, pre-CRT MTV and pre CRT TLG remained significant (p=0.006 and p=0.039, respectively). Percent change in MTV independently predicted for OS (p=0.034). By contrast, SUVmax and SUVpeak did not predict for pCR or survival. Conclusions: Pre CRT MTV and pre CRT TLG were independently predictive of pCR, and percentage change in MTV independently predicted for OS in LAEC. Further study is needed to determine if MTV and TLG values can help define which patients will most benefit from radiation dose escalation and esophagectomy
Avoiding the science stupidity trap

Why do we only follow people who think like us on social media? Why is this dangerous? What are the risks of having a high IQ in science? Why do ‘flat earthers’ still exist? Why doesn’t scientific evidence always change how people think? Why are fake facts winning in the media? Moreover, why is this relevant to university science students? No one teaches us the foundational elements about how to think like a high quality scientist. Our university science students are often expected to osmotically absorb this knowledge as they spend their time remembering disciplinary facts and theories. An article in New Scientist (2019, No3218) shows that this is not good enough to prevent flawed thinking or ‘stupidity’. This course makes explicit to first year science students 1) what a high quality scientist is and 2) practical strategies on how to become a high quality scientist. It teaches students about the full repertoire of different types of scientific thinking and explains where and where not, to use them. A cohesive student-learning journey across the degree means that students apply the theory of high quality scientific thinking, through active learning in second and third year.
Unemployment, well-being, and the moderating role of education policies: A multilevel study

This article aims to investigate if education policies moderate the association between unemployment and well-being among young adults. Based on the capability approach, we argue that education policies mitigate the negative effects of unemployment by providing opportunities for education and thus ways to exit unemployment. Education policies can strengthen capabilities, enhance the control that individuals have over their situation, and thereby reduce the stress associated with unemployment. We estimated cross-level interactions between education policies and unemployment status using multilevel methods and data from the European Social Survey. Results showed that policies that increase educational opportunities—such as generous second chance opportunities—were associated with smaller negative effects of unemployment on well-being and that this moderating impact was stronger for young adults with low education. Further analyses show that education policies are also associated with perceived capabilities among unemployed, supporting the proposed mechanism.
Risque cardiovasculaire et maladie d’Alzheimer : rôle de l’hypertension artérielle. De l’épidémiologie aux modèles animaux

Les anomalies cerebrovasculaires sont frequentes chez les patients souffrant d’une maladie d’Alzheimer ; elles pourraient participer aux manifestations cliniques et a la gravite de la maladie. Les facteurs de risque cardiovasculaires, en particulier l’hypertension arterielle, sont associes au risque de presenter une maladie d’Alzheimer. Pour dechiffrer les mecanismes impliques dans les relations entre hypertension et maladie d’Alzheimer, nous avons mis au point un modele murin de souris transgeniques (APPPS1) hypertendues. Elles surexpriment le precurseur de la proteine beta-amyloide et la preselinine 1 auxquelles on implante une minipompe osmotique qui delivre une dose hypertensive d’angiotensine 2. A l’âge de 4,5 mois, au stade precoce de la maladie, seules les souris APPPS1 hypertendues presentaient des troubles de la memoire temporale episodique. Ce deficit cognitif etait associe avec une augmentation du nombre de depots amyloides corticaux (223 ± 5 versus 207 ± 5 plaques/mm2 ; P < 0,05) et une augmentation par un facteur 2 du niveau de la proteine amyloide soluble dans le cerveau et dans le plasma. Les souris APPPS1 hypertendues presentaient, de plus, une reduction de 25 % de la densite microvasculaire cerebrale, et de 30 % a 40 % des depots amyloides perivasculaires, en meme temps qu’une diminution de l’expression du VEGFA dans le cerveau, par rapport aux souris APPPS1 normotendues. De plus, le niveau de NO synthetase 1 et 3 et ceux de nitrites/nitrates etaient plus faibles chez les souris APPPS1 hypertendues (respectivement de 49 %, 34 %, et 33 % par rapport aux souris temoins ; P < 0,05). Ces resultats suggerent que l’hypertension arterielle accelere le developpement des alterations fonctionnelles et structurelles liees a la maladie d’Alzheimer, en partie en raison d’anomalies microvasculaires et d’une liberation diminuee d’oxyde nitrique.
Teachers’ and School Administrators’ Perception on the Strategic Leadership Practices of School Administrators

This descriptive study identified how strategic leadership practices affect the management style of school administrators of teacher education institutions (TEIs) with nine selected State Universities in Central Luzon, Philippines. The study described the strategic leadership practices of school administrators in terms of Model the way, Inspire a Shared Vision, Challenge the Process, Enable Others to Act and Encourage the Heart. Based on the data gathered, it was found out the strategic leadership practices of school administrators were perceived by both as satisfactory. It was also revealed that there was significant difference between the perception of faculty members and school administrators on the leadership practices of school administrators. Enabling Others to Act’ strategic leadership practice is the best predictor having the highest adjusted coefficient of determination (R2). It was recommended that the strategic leadership practices may be further improved as well as the strategic leadership to elevate the perception of teachers. Also, school administrator may capitalize on enabling others to act as strategic leadership practice since it has been found out that it is the best predictor.
Can Disability Studies Contribute to Client-Centred Occupational Therapy Practice?

Occupational therapists frequently cite a ‘client-centred’ approach as a fundamental aspect of their practice. However, there are many examples in the narratives of disabled people that suggest that the health and social care services they experience do not quite meet this aspiration. The authors propose that an understanding of disability from disabled people's perspectives is elemental to client-centred practice and that knowledge of the academic discipline of disability studies can contribute to authentic client-centred occupational therapy.
Utilizing Community Cultural Wealth to Learn with Diverse Language Communities

Abstract How to prepare teachers to work with culturally and linguistically diverse students and families is an important aspect of teacher education as classrooms continue to diversify. Community-based approaches to teaching offer promising strategies for addressing this need. This article offers one example of an English as a Second Language literacy methods course that built preservice teachers’ understanding of and experiences with diverse language communities. Tara Yosso’s Community Cultural Wealth (CCW) framework provided a theoretical lens for the course and guided the preservice teachers’ teaching and reflections. The preservice teachers engaged in various activities that included literacy teaching, visiting places in their students’ communities, learning their students’ language, and creating narrative videos with the students and their families. The findings from this course show how the CCW framework can be a constructive method for identifying community assets when combined with a variety of activities for preservice teachers to engage with students and their families.
Prostate cancer resistance to second generation hormonal agents

Prostate cancer is a hormone-dependent disease that is treated with a variety of hormonal therapies targeting the androgen receptor (AR) pathway. AR is a transcription factor that has a relevant contribution to the etiology and progression of prostate cancer. The AR protein has distinct functional domains that include the COOH-terminal ligand binding domain (LBD), a DNA-binding domain (DBD), and an amino-terminal domain (NTD) [1]. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with luteinizing hormone releasing hormone agonists or antagonists is the standard first line systemic therapy for metastatic prostate cancer [2]. ADT initially induces tumour regression in most patients, however disease progression inevitably occurs resulting in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). CRPC, at least initially, still remains AR-driven, through various mechanisms: 1) AR protein overexpression, 2) mutations in the NH2-terminal domain, or LBD that render the receptor more sensitive to androgen activation, 3) autocrine androgen synthesis by prostate cancer cells, 4) cross talk with other oncogenic pathways [3, 4].

Cancer Chemoprevention: Prevention is Better than Cure

J Cancer Sci Ther ISSN:1948-5956 JCST, an open access journal Cancer Chemoprevention Cancer is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. Carcinogenesis is a multistep molecular process induced by genetic and epigenetic changes that disrupt pathways controlling cell proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation, and senescence [1,2]. Therefore, several diverse approaches are required for the treatment and management of cancer which include radiation, chemotherapy, and surgical removal of malignant tissues.
Trading privileges for support: the strategic co-optation of emerging powers into international institutions

Abstract As emerging powers rise and established powers decline, international institutions come under pressure to adjust to new power realities. When and how do international institutions adapt to underlying global power shifts? We propose an (institutionalist) theory of strategic co-optation that differs from both (realist) accommodationist and (liberal) integrationist theories. Drawing on isolated treatments of strategic co-optation from other domains – domestic and international, autocratic and democratic, past and present – we develop a theory of strategic co-optation as a mode of institutional adaption to shifts in the global distribution of power. The theory specifies the concept, the conditions and the (unintended) consequences of strategic co-optation. We conceptualize co-optation as a specific form of adaptation where established powers trade institutional privileges for emerging powers' institutional support. We theorize the conditions under which emerging and established powers are (more or less) likely to strike a co-optation deal. In addition, we identify endogenous dynamics that may render co-optation precarious and thus subject to instabilities. While the ambition of this paper is primarily theoretical, we provide various empirical illustrations of how strategic co-optation is used to adapt international institutions to contemporary shifts in the global distribution of power.

Prosociality as a mediator between teacher collaboration and turnover intention

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the mediating role of prosociality, which is defined in terms of helping and benefitting others, between teacher collaboration and their turnover intentions. Prosociality was measured as prosocial impact and prosocial motivation. Design/methodology/approach This study was conducted through a cross-sectional survey of 260 elementary and junior high school teachers in Japan. A structural equational model was employed to examine the mediating roles of prosocial impact and prosocial motivation in the relationships between teacher collaboration and their turnover intention. Findings The results, first, supported the hypotheses: the high perception of teacher collaboration in school predicted high perceived prosocial impact; high perceived prosocial impact predicted high perceived prosocial motivation; and high perceived prosocial motivation predicted decreased turnover intention. Second, results supported partial mediating roles of prosocial impact and prosocial motivation between teacher collaboration and turnover intention. Research limitations/implications Limitations of this study include cross-sectional data that may limit the potential for causal inferences, and self-report data. Future studies should incorporate alternative designs. Practical implications Results indicate that teacher collaboration contributes to less teacher turnover intention via prosociality. Thus, to enhance teachers’ prosocial impact, more opportunities to realise their collaboration should be considered. Originality/value This is the first study to explore the relationships between teacher collaboration and turnover intention in educational organisations with prosociality, which resides as core goals and objectives of teachers.
