The role of age and physical fitness on the relationship between physical activity and executive function
Authors: Stauder Matthew , Horn Olivia , Hayes Scott M.
Published: July 2024

BackgroundFew studies simultaneously examine the relationship between physical activity, multiple domains of physical fitness (cardiorespiratory fitness, strength, gait speed), and cognition. Our objective was to investigate the association between physical activity and executive function in middle-aged and older adults and examine the extent to which modifiable aspects of physical fitness explain the relationship between physical activity and cognition.MethodsSelf-reported moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, objective measures of cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength, gait speed, and executive function were collected from 623 adults within the Human Connectome Project – Aging dataset (ages 36-100 years; mean age = 59.2 years; 57.8% female). Relative importance metrics, multiple regression, and conditional process analysis were used to examine relationships of age, physical activity, and physical fitness with executive function.ResultsGreater physical fitness was related to better executive function performance (β = .28, p < .001). Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity was not associated with executive function (β = -.04, p = .16). These relationships were not dependent on age. There was an indirect relationship between physical activity and executive function through physical fitness (ab = .02, 95% CI: .004 – .04). The strength of this relationship increased with age and was explained primarily by the indirect association of cardiorespiratory fitness with physical activity and executive function.ConclusionsThese data highlight the importance of considering multiple domains of physical fitness in relation to physical activity and cognitive performance in middle aged and older adults, as well as considering different associative strengths among these variables across the adult lifespan.

Published: July 2024

University students demonstrate poor help-seeking behavior for their mental health and wellbeing despite frequently reporting low levels of wellbeing and psychological difficulties.

The purpose of the study is to assess students’ awareness of the possibilities of receiving help at the university; identify students’ difficulties and support needs; spot preferred formats for receiving information about mental health, mental hygiene and well-being; and observe attitudes towards psychological support. The study of 654 students of Moscow City University was conducted as a sociological survey.

Students experience the greatest need for support in situations of emotional and academic stress, and affective disorders. The preferred formats of assistance vary according to the type of student’s needs, from acquiring self-care skills and managing emotions to advisory or therapeutic work. A special place is occupied by informing, education and non-specific social forms of support, in particular, environmental conditions and student communities. Students have ambivalent views and attitudes towards the supportive opportunities that the university provides them “here and now”. Seeking help for students is associated with uncertainty and feelings of appropriateness, risk and mistrust, which can be levelled out in psychological education and training.
Education for Adults. Landscape of the online IT Master’s Programs in Russia
Authors: Grits D. I. , Brudkova A. M.
Published: July 2024

The number of online master’s programs in Russia is growing by the year with IT programs leading the way. The online master’s programs engage working adults whose goal is to obtain a new profession or master the skills required for their professional development. In terms of governmental regulation in Russia, almost no distinction is drawn between on-campus and online master’s programs. The surge in the number of the latter is attributed to university digitalization which merely transfers traditional content and structure to a digital form. The authors being actively engaged in educational practice challenge this point of view as it becomes apparent that online master’s programs constitute a stand-alone phenomenon worth thorough investigation. The article in question scrutinizes the core features of 48 Russian online master’s programs in IT; an explanatory analysis of the phenomenon is conducted through the open and distance education theories and the concept of professional master’s program. It is concluded that online master’s programs in IT in Russia bear signs of open and distance education models. However, it is premature to claim it a new type of education.

In the utilization of social media, there are notable advantages and disadvantages associated with the dissemination of legal information. Unreliable online news platforms have the potential to propagate misinformation, posing harm to society. Nonetheless, legal practitioners can leverage social media as a conduit for dependable legal information by implementing strategic measures. The evolution of information and communication technology, particularly the internet, has transformed communication into a digital format. The ubiquity of smartphones allows for diverse forms of communication, including engagement through social media. Applications like TikTok, favored among the younger demographic, serve as tools for legal professionals to construct information networks and convey legal knowledge in innovative ways. It is crucial to bear in mind that social media can have adverse effects concerning the spread of inaccurate legal information. Advocates can mitigate this impact by utilizing reputable platforms, delivering pertinent information, and collaborating with fellow legal experts to generate informative and reliable content. In the execution of their responsibilities, advocates are obligated to uphold the integrity and esteem of the profession, exercise prudence and ethical conduct in using social media to cultivate a professional image, and disseminate precise and beneficial legal information.
Epidemiological aspects of the association of the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype with metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular risk factors in Morocco. Case the Amazigh population from a geographic region called Souss
Authors: Najeh Hamid , Rherissi Bouchra , Dwassy Youssef , Belmouden Ahmed , Chadli Smail
Published: July 2024

Background

The global prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) increases susceptibility to non-communicable
diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, posing significant health risks. Effective prevention
and management require objective tools. The hypertriglyceridemic waist (TG+WC+) phenotype is proposed as a less
expensive approach to identify individuals with metabolic syndrome and other cardiovascular risk factors.

Objective

The current aim of this investigation is to study the epidemiological characteristics of the hypertriglyceridemic
waist phenotype and their correlations with cardiovascular risk factors and MetS in the Moroccan Amazigh ethnic group
from the Souss region of Morocco.

Material and Methods

A total of 827 Amazigh adults from the Sousse region of Morocco were divided into four distinct phenotype groups: TG-WC-, TG+WC-, TG-WC+, and TG+WC+ (normal TG- or high TG+ triglycerides/normal WC- or
high WC+ waist circumference). The association of the different phenotypes with MetS and other cardiovascular risk
factors was established by logistic regression analysis.

Results

The prevalence of the TG+WC+ phenotype was 27.7% and varied according to age group and sex. Among
subjects with the TG+WC+ phenotype, most were 41-60 years old (53.3%) and in women (74.2%). Participants with the
TG+WC+ phenotype had the highest prevalence of dyslipidemia (87.3%), hypoHDLaemia (69.9%), and general obesity
(37.12%). The three phenotypes TG-WC-, TG+WC- and TG-WC+ were less associated with MetS and other cardiovascular
risk factors. Moreover, people with the TG+WC+ phenotype had a very high odds ratio for MetS.

Conclusion

These findings suggest that the TG+WC+ phenotype exhibits a robust correlation with MetS and additional
variables connected to cardiovascular risk. The TG+WC+ phenotype serves as a valuable clinical instrument for detecting
individuals vulnerable to MetS and cardiovascular diseases.

Published: July 2024

Background

Hepatitis B is a serious public health concern and health care professionals especially nurses are at higher risk of acquiring this infection. Basic knowledge, awareness and a positive attitude are required to prevent this disease.

Objective

The present pilot study was conducted to assess awareness and attitude regarding hepatitis B among staff
nurses and nursing students of a teaching hospital in north India.

Material and Methods

A total of 205 subjects who gave consent to participate were included in this descriptive study.
A self-structured pre-tested close ended questionnaire comprising of two parts was used to collect information from the
study subjects. First part collected information on demographic details of the study subject and second part assessed
subjects’ awareness and attitude on various aspects of hepatitis B infection including vaccination. Chi-square test and
multiple linear regression analysis was used for statistical analysis.

Results

The mean age of the study subjects was 25.8±5.6 years. Awareness regarding HBV infection was present among
92.6% (190) of subjects. Long-term effects of hepatitis B were known to 58.4% (119) of subjects and 79.1% (162) of
subjects reported taking universal precautions. Half of the subjects (105), were getting regularly tested for hepatitis B
antigen.The odds of getting regularly tested for hepatitis B antigen were 3.26 times greater in female subjects and 3.45
times greater in subjects who were GNMs.

Conclusion

Low awareness levels were reported regarding some important aspects of hepatitis B among study subjects
though more than 90% were aware of it. There is an urgent need for education and training programs for nurses designed
to increase their knowledge about HBV infection.

In this research, we fabricate SnS films using a low-cost spray pyrolysis technique. Several parameters such as grain size, textural coefficient, Sn concentration, root mean square (RMS), optical band gap, Urbach and dispersion energy are determined by the mean of X-ray diffraction pattern, UV-Vis measurements, surface morphology observation by scanning electron microscopy (SEM)-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selective area electron diffraction (SAED) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Furthermore, SnS thin films exhibit a polycrystalline structure having a low grain size of 6.1 nm along principal (111) orientation. The optical band gap is around 1.9 eV and Urbach energy is of 740 meV. The dielectric parameters of chalcogenide SnS thin film are varying with photon energy within ultraviolet-visible-infrared (Uv-Vis-IR) bands. Besides, the single oscillator E0 and Ed energies are found to be 2.03 and 3.28 eV, respectively, using the Wemple and DiDomenico (WDD) model.Electrical measurements of SnS thin films deposited onto Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) substrate are accomplished and current-voltage (I–V) characteristics of SnO2 / SnS/ITO, are shaped in dark and room temperature conditions. Photovoltaic parameters like open circuit voltage (Voc ), short circuit current (Isc ), fill factor (FF) and power conversion efficiency (η) values are determined and SnO2 / SnS/ITO junction records the highest values.

Aerobic capacity plays an important role in football as it influences players' physical performance and long-lasting endurance levels. The aim of this study was to investigate the aerobic capacity levels of football players playing in different positions according to the positions they play. The study group consisted of 83 football players in super amateur league. Football players playing in 8 different positions voluntarily participated in the study (goalkeeper: n= 8, defender: n=13, left back: n=9, right back: n=7, midfield: n=24, left winger: n=7, right winger: n=7 striker: n=8). Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test (YYIRT1) was applied to determine the aerobic endurance parameters of the players. One-way ANOVA analysis was used to compare the distance travelled, average speed (km/h) and maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max) values. It was determined that there was a significant difference between the test parameters of the players in different playing positions, and this difference was found to be between the left back players, goalkeepers, and stoppers (p<0.05). It was determined that goalkeepers had the lowest average aerobic capacity in the distances travelled by the players by position, while back players and wingers had high aerobic capacity averages. According to these results, we can say that the aerobic capacities of football players vary according to their positions, and the physiological demands of the position played by back players and wingers are effective in the distance travelled and the football players have different aerobic capacities.

Published: July 2024

The article examines key differences between family and non-family businesses, focusing on values, strategy, innovation, human capital, and work-life balance. Family businesses are characterized by long-term planning, deep-rooted values, and succession challenges. The family brings emotional aspects, while business requires rationality and results. Non-family businesses typically have formalized management, faster decision-making, and short-term performance goals, influencing flexibility and innovation. Questionnaires show family businesses prioritize stability and values, whereas non-family businesses emphasize innovation and competitiveness. The results suggest areas for future research and practical implications.

Acute exposure of eukaryotic cells to ultraviolet-B (UVB) radiation leads to a number of detrimental effects, one such prominent effect of UVB exposure is increased production of free radicals which can lead to oxidative damage. Although, the human skin is well equipped with endogenous antioxidant defence system, often increased levels of free radicals lead to oxidative damage in skin. Skin inflammation, accelerated skin aging, and formation of wrinkles are all consequences of UVB induced photodamage. Hence, it is posited that supplementation of an exogenous antioxidant derived from natural products could prevent and reduce oxidative damage in skin cells. This study set forth to investigate the antioxidative role of terpenoid rich Canarium odontophyllum Miq. (Dabai) extract on acute UVB-induced photodamage human keratinocyte cells (HaCaT). We first evaluated the antioxidative capacity of increasing concentrations of crude extracts of TRCO Dabai extracts (62.50 µg/mL, 125 µg/mL, 250 µg/mL, and 500 µg/mL) through FRAP assay. We found all the tested TRCO extract exhibited antioxidative capacity in dosage dependent manner. We further investigated the effects of pre-treatment 250 µg/mL and 500 µg/mL TRCO on UVB-induced photodamaged HaCaT cell by measuring oxidative stress markers of lipid peroxide (LPO content), protein carbonyl (PC) content, glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) activities. Both 250 µg/mL and 500 µg/mL TRCO extract pre-treated UVB-induced HaCaT cell group exhibited significantly reduced lipid peroxides content and GST activity compared to the positive control (p<0.05). Pre-treatment of 250 µg/mL TRCO extract significant enhanced GSH-Px activity (p<0.05). However, no significant difference in protein carbonyl content could be established across all tested groups. Therefore, our results suggest that TRCO extract can offer protection against oxidative damages caused by UVB exposure, and said protective effects can be attributed by its antioxidant properties.
Computational Analysis of Epstein-Barr Virus BamHI A Rightward Transcript (BART) MicroRNAs (miRNAs) Regulation on Messenger RNAs and Long Non-Coding RNAs in Nasopharyngeal Cancer

Published: July 2024

To date, the regulatory framework mediated by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) BamHI A rightward transcript (BART) microRNAs (miRNAs) via their interaction with long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the context of nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) pathogenesis remains partially understood. To derive a more complete insight into this phenomenon, we embarked on a computational study to identify BART miRNAs, mRNAs, lncRNAs, and all associated factors relevant to NPC tumourigenesis and to characterise their interactions. In silico integration of multi-level RNA expression and construction of regulatory networks were performed. We found six EBV BART miRNAs (ebv-miR-BART21-3p, ebv-miR-BART19-3p, ebv-miR-BART15, ebv-miR-BART2-5p, ebv-miR-BART20-3p and ebv-miR-BART11-5p) that could interact with four mRNAs (EYA4, EYA1, EBF1 and MACROD2) associated with NPC pathogenesis. These mRNAs can interact with six non-EBV miRNAs (hsa-miR-1246, hsa-miR-93-5p, hsa-miR-16-5p, hsa-miR-135b-5p, hsa-miR-211-5p and hsa-miR-1305), which in turn, could interact with three lncRNAs (CASC2, TPTE2P1 and ARHGEF26-AS1). These findings could shed light on the roles of dysregulated competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network in NPC oncogenesis. In addition, we have also predicted the oncogenic and tumour suppressive functions of BART miRNAs and lncRNAs, and more precisely, the involvement of BART miRNAs in DNA repair regulation and apoptosis.

Landfill leachate discharged into watercourse without proper treatment can pollute the water source due to its high chemical oxygen demand (COD). The high pollutant load in landfill leachate has become one of the potential substrates in bio-energy generation by using microbial fuel cell (MFC). MFC integrated with adsorption system has been introduced as an approach to overcome the limitation of stand-alone MFC, which is able to treat the landfill leachate more effectively while simultaneously generating bio-energy. Anode size has been reported to have a significant influence on the power generation of MFC via lab-scale experiments, however the simulation studies on MFC are still limited. This study aimed to develop a simulation model to predict the effect of graphite fiber brush anode size on the performance of a single chamber air-cathode hybrid MFC-Adsorption system, in terms of COD removal and bio-energy generation. The highest power density of 1.33 mW/m2 was achieved with 20% anode brush removed. The highest current generation of 2.37 mA and voltage of 7.11 mV was obtained with the largest anode surface area of 0.1288 m2 and resistance of 2.76 Ω. The highest COD consumption by electrogenic microorganisms was 4.96 x 10-9 Lmol/mg, and predicted to decrease with decreasing anode size. The efficiency of the simulation model could be further improved by incorporating parameters such as charge transfer kinetic at anode and cathode, adsorption effect by activated carbon as well as the substrate and microbial population behaviour. The simulation model developed was significant towards enhancing the bio-energy generation and reducing the cost of MFC for industrial application.
