Feeding frequencies and their effect on behavior of nursing sows

An experiment to relate behavior activities with reference to feeding was carried on 16 lactating sows and their litters after one week of farrowing. Two types of diets were fed to the sows. The control group (C) animals were fed with standard ration containing 18% crude protein (CP). The ration for kitchen waste fed group (K) was prepared by substituting the CP of standard ration by food leftover kitchen wastes to the extent of 40%. The sows were randomly distributed into four groups based on frequency of feeding either once (C1, K1) or twice (C2, K2). All the sows were housed individually. The behavior data of sows were collected on ethogram data sheet using scan sampling method. Instantaneous sampling time recording rule was followed to record the listed activities at regular interval during the study period. The sows activities were recorded for 15 days after one week of farrowing. The activities were recorded for 4 hours split between morning and evening, one hour before and one hour after offering of feeds to the sows (8:30 to 9:30 am, 10:30 to 11:30 am, 3:00 to 4:00 pm and 4:30 to 5:30 pm). Nine behavioral parameters were recorded and categorized into 3 major attributes viz., feeding and nursing behavior, active self-care behavior and inactive resting behavior. The sows weaned their litters at the end of 8 weeks. The data on litter size at birth and at weaning was used to compare the nursing behavior with productivity of sows. The increased frequency of feeding made sows spend significantly more time (P<0.01) in eating while reducing their inactive resting time. Thus reduced frequency of feeding to once per day is more beneficial in terms of keeping pigs undisturbed and also this reduces the labour requirement for feeding purpose.
STERNOCLAVICULAR JOINT MOVEMENT DURING BACKSWING IN BASEBALL PITCHING MAY BE A GOOD INDICATOR OF SHOULDER INJURY

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the characteristics of joint movements performed by the pitchers who suffered from throwing shoulder injuries. Fourteen semiprofessional baseball pitchers participated in our longitudinal study. We captured their pitching using an optical motion capture system. We investigated their disease history once a year, for 5 years, in order to investigate the relationship between baseball-related throwing injuries and pitching mechanics. T w of the players suffered from shoulder pain and had to take a "no throw" rest for several weeks during the season. Both pitchers had a reduced range of motions for retraction at the sternoclavicular joint during backswing. However, they presented the same range of motions for shoulder horizontal abduction, as the other healthy pitchers.
Are Concepts Of Technical & Engineering Literacy Included In State Curriculum Standards? A Regional Overview Of The Nexus Between Technical & Engineering Literacy And State Science Frameworks

The use of technology in the classroom has been a driving force behind developing a technically literate society. Reform documents such as Science for All Americans: Project 2061 [1] , Benchmarks for Scientific Literacy [2] and the National Science Education Standards [NSES] [3] include sections titled, Science and Technology and The Nature of Technology, as a means to foster technical literacy for students in grades K-12. In NSES, the goal of the Science and Technology content standard is for all students to develop “abilities of technological design and understanding about science and technology. ” These reform documents have been the framework to foster science, technical and engineering literacy for students in grades K-12 across the United States as guided by their state science frameworks, however are states achieving this goal? Although these documents promote the need for understanding technology as it applies to science, how have states incorporated these principles into their own science curriculum standards? This investigation is part 2 of a multi-series project to understanding how public schools are training students to become technically literate. In part 1 presented at the 2005 ASEE Conference, we defined technical literacy to be “the ability of an individual to make informed decisions based upon an evolving understanding of the fundamentals of modern technologies. ” To accomplish this goal, we proposed the Engineering Education Frameworks [5] (EEF), which defined a pathway toward technical literacy for high school students. It was our intent to develop this set of guidelines to address technical literacy for secondary public schools. These Frameworks were designed to facilitate and promote the simultaneous teaching of multiple science disciplines in concert with mathematics while incorporating engineering concepts and designs. In part 2 of this project, we explore how various states in the United States include aspects of EEF in their science state frameworks as a means to foster technical and engineering literacy as suggested by science reform documents. This regional overview of 49 state science frameworks, including the District of Columbia and the ITEA standards [4] , tackles the question: how do state science frameworks incorporate engineering concepts into their secondary science curriculums? Our findings indicate that many states include various aspects of EEF content standards and widely use the term technology but fail to identify the context of engineering concepts as it relates to the disciplines in science. It is important to assess how states are incorporating technology and engineering concepts into their state science curriculum frameworks as promoting technical and engineering literacy in secondary schools may result in fostering interest in careers in engineering.
Association between Mother’s Education and Infant and Young Child Feeding Practices in South Asia

The association between mother’s education and the World Health Organization’s (WHO’s) eight Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF) core indicators has yet to be explored in South Asia (SA). This study aimed to explore the association between mother’s education and the WHO’s eight IYCF core indicators in SA. We analyzed data from the most recent nationally representative Demographic and Health Surveys of six South Asian Countries (SACs)—Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Maldives, Nepal, and Pakistan. We found significantly higher odds (adjusted odds ratio, AOR, 1.13 to 1.47) among mothers who completed secondary or higher education than among mothers with education levels below secondary for the following seven IYCF indicators: early initiation of breastfeeding (EIBF), exclusive breastfeeding under 6 months (EBF), the introduction of solid, semisolid or soft foods (ISSSF), minimum dietary diversity (MDD), minimum meal frequency (MMF), minimum acceptable diet (MAD), and consumption of iron-rich or iron-fortified foods (CIRF); the exception was for the indicator of continued breastfeeding at one year. Country-specific analyses revealed significantly higher odds in EIBF (AOR 1.14; 95% CI: 1.11, 1.18) and EBF (AOR 1.27; 95% CI: 1.19, 1.34) among mothers with secondary or higher education levels in India. In contrast, the odds were lower for EIBF in Bangladesh and for EBF in Pakistan among mothers with secondary or higher education levels. For country-specific analyses for complementary feeding indicators such as ISSSF, MDD, MMF, MAD, and CIRF, significantly higher odds (AOR, 1.15 to 2.34) were also observed among mothers with secondary or higher education levels. These findings demonstrate a strong positive association between mother’s education and IYCF indicators. Strengthening national policies to educate women at least to the secondary level in SACs might be a cost-effective intervention for improving IYCF practices.

This document provides lessons learned from implementing CoAP for tiny, battery- operated networked embedded systems. In particular, it provides guidance on correct implementation of the CoAP specification RFC 7252, memory optimizations, and customized protocol parameters.
Efek Perbedaan Intensitas Latihan Resistance Elastic Band terhadap Indeks Massa Tubuh (IMT)

Abstract: Overweight can cause various degenerative diseases that must be controlled by doing physical activity. Resistance exercise is a type of physical activity that can increase the calories burned during fat burning so that it can affect Body Mass Index (BMI). The aim of this study is to analyze the effect of intensity of elastic band resistance exercise on BMI. This study was pretest-posttest control group design with 40 adult women. The subjects were divided into four treatments - low intensity, moderate intensity, high intensity, and control. Resistance exercise consists of three types of exercise for upper extremities and three types of exercise for lower extremities, each set consisting of three sets, 12 repetitions, and one minute of rest interval between exercises given three times every week for four weeks BMI calculation is done by dividing body weight in kilograms and height in meters squared before and after the intervention. Low intensity resistance exercise showed an increase in BMI (p=0.62), moderate intensity resistance exercise showed a decrease in BMI (p=0.24) and high intensity resistance exercise showed a decrease in BMI (p=0.04). Medium intensity and high intensity elastic band resistance exercises are effective in improving BMI in adult women.Keywords: Body Mass Index; Exercise Intensity; Resistance ExerciseAbstrak: Overweight dapat menyebabkan berbagai penyakit degeneratif sehingga harus dikontrol dengan melakukan aktivitas fisik.

Recently, abscisic acid (ABA) has been reported to have positive neurophysiological effects in mammals. Here, the effects of ABA on harmaline‐induced motor and cognitive impairments were investigated in rats.
Mapping Server Collaboration Architecture Design with OpenVSLAM for Mobile Devices

SLAM technology, which is used for spatial recognition in autonomous driving and robotics, has recently emerged as an important technology to provide high-quality AR contents on mobile devices due to the spread of XR and metaverse technologies. In this paper, we designed, implemented, and verified the SLAM system that can be used on mobile devices. Mobile SLAM is composed of a stand-alone type that directly performs SLAM operation on a mobile device and a mapping server type that additionally configures a mapping server based on FastAPI to perform SLAM operation on the server and transmits data for map visualization to a mobile device. The mobile SLAM system proposed in this paper mixes the two types in order to make SLAM operation and map generation more efficient. The stand-alone type of SLAM system was configured as an Android app by porting the OpenVSLAM library to the Unity engine, and the map generation and performance were evaluated on desktop PCs and mobile devices. The mobile SLAM system in this paper is an open-source project, so it is expected to help develop AR contents based on SLAM in a mobile environment.

Periodisation in professional tennis: A macro to micro analysis of load management strategies within a cluttered calendar

Aim This study analysed the periodisation of internal loads across training and competition blocks of future top 250 (T250) professionally ranked tennis players’ professional transitions. Methods Retrospective data was analysed from 10 male and 8 female Australian tennis players aged between 16 to 18 who later achieved professional rankings inside the T250. Session-rating of perceived exertion training load (sRPE TL) was collected from all sessions using an online application. Data were collected from official matches, on-court skill-based training, and off-court sessions (i.e., strength, conditioning, body management) and classified according to their occurrence in either training or competition blocks. Weekly sRPE TL was quantified for respective training and competition periods. One-way analysis of variance and effect size analyses compared within-sex training loads between training and competition blocks. Results Training blocks lasted longer than competitions for both sexes (p < 0.05). Training blocks for males had greater daily durations (p < 0.01), but not sRPE TL (p = 0.08). Total load for females was not different between periods (p > 0.05). Training blocks had higher on-court and off-court loads compared to competition (p < 0.05). No difference in weekly training and competition loads were observed (p > 0.05). Skill-based sessions in training periods were longer with higher loads for both sexes (p < 0.05), with no difference in duration, rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and sRPE TL observed between periods for off-court sessions (p > 0.05). Conclusions Future T250 players experience higher sRPE TL in training blocks, with reductions in both total on-court and off-court load during tournaments. Regardless, limited evidence of periodised weekly loads exists within training and competition periods.
Tinnitus: at a crossroad between phantom perception and sleep

Abstract Sensory disconnection from the environment is a hallmark of sleep and is crucial for sleep maintenance. It remains unclear, however, whether internally generated percepts—phantom percepts—may overcome such disconnection and, in turn, how sleep and its effect on sensory processing and brain plasticity may affect the function of the specific neural networks underlying such phenomena. A major hurdle in addressing this relationship is the methodological difficulty to study sensory phantoms, due to their subjective nature and lack of control over the parameters or neural activity underlying that percept. Here, we explore the most prevalent phantom percept, subjective tinnitus—or tinnitus for short—as a model to investigate this. Tinnitus is the permanent perception of a sound with no identifiable corresponding acoustic source. This review offers a novel perspective on the functional interaction between brain activity across the sleep–wake cycle and tinnitus. We discuss characteristic features of brain activity during tinnitus in the awake and the sleeping brain and explore its effect on sleep functions and homeostasis. We ask whether local changes in cortical activity in tinnitus may overcome sensory disconnection and prevent the occurrence of global restorative sleep and, in turn, how accumulating sleep pressure may temporarily alleviate the persistence of a phantom sound. Beyond an acute interaction between sleep and neural activity, we discuss how the effects of sleep on brain plasticity may contribute to aberrant neural circuit activity and promote tinnitus consolidation. Tinnitus represents a unique window into understanding the role of sleep in sensory processing. Clarification of the underlying relationship may offer novel insights into therapeutic interventions in tinnitus management.
