Published: October 2023

The aim of this study was to determine the leisure crafting, job finding anxiety and life satisfaction levels of the students studying in the faculty of sport sciences according to some demographic variables and to determine the relationship between the variables. The study employed the relational survey model. The research group consisted of 458 (Meanage.=21,53±2,06) people who were determined via simple sampling method and who were studying at the Faculty of Sport Sciences. The study used "Leisure Crafting Scale (LCS)", "Sport Sciences Students' Job Finding Anxiety Scale (JFAS)" and "Life Satisfaction Scale (LSS)". t-test and ANOVA tests were applied to assess the levels of LCS, JFAS and SSS according to various demographic characteristics of the participants. Furthermore, the research model that was developed in order to investigate the relationship between the scales was assessed using the Structural Equation Model (SEM) test. The results of the research showed that there was a no significant difference according to the “gender” variable in the scores of LCS, JFAS and LSS in the t-test results, but showed a significant difference according to the "participation in the development seminar" variable. With respect to the ANOVA results, it was determined that there was a significant difference in the scores of LCS, JFAS and LSS according to the variables of “income level" and "type of leisure time utilization". Additionally, the hypotheses developed within the confines of the study model were confirmed based on the findings of the SEM analysis. Accordingly, it was observed that the variance rate in which leisure crafting accounted for life satisfaction was 45% (R2 = ,45, p = ,001), which was -25% when it came to accounting for job finding anxiety (R2 = ,-25, p = ,001). As a result, it can be concluded that leisure crafting, job finding anxiety and life satisfaction levels vary depending on a variety of demographic parameters, and life satisfaction levels of students are affected by leisure crafting and job finding anxiety.Keywords: Anxiety, Leisure Crafting, Satisfaction, Student

Investigation of the Effect of Push-Up Exercises with and without Suspension on Some Motor Skills Applied to Young Volleyball Athletes
Authors: ERİŞ Fatih
Published: October 2023

ABSTRACTThe aim of this study was to compare the relationships between some motor skills in the upper extremity region of 20 male volleyball players aged 15-18 years, competing in the 8th Group of the 2nd League of the Turkish Volleyball Federation, with and without suspended and unsuspended Push-Up (PU) bosu ball exercises applied for 3 sessions every week for 8 weeks. In addition to the normal training program, the first group was trained with unsuspended (PU) and the second group was trained with suspended (PU) for 8 weeks. Both groups performed Medicine Ball Throw to evaluate upper extremity strength, Closed Kinetic Chain Upper Extremity Stability Test to evaluate endurance and Upper Extremity Y-Balance Test to evaluate balance before and after the training program.  As a result of this study, the difference values of the test results before and after the training were compared. A significant difference was found between the groups in the upper extremity right and left arm 0,000, Y Balance Test Medial dominant 0,000, and non-dominant 0,004, Superolateral dominant and non-dominant 0,000, Inferiorlateral dominant 0,024 and non-dominant 0,000, chest and overhead 0,000 Health Ball Throw test difference changes (p0,05).  Performing the applications used in classical training methods on unstable grounds can increase the motivation of volleyball athletes and contribute to their performance. As a result, it seems that unsuspended and suspended (PU) exercises can increase the levels of medicine ball throwing, closed kinetic chain upper extremity stability test and upper extremity Y-balance test with the exercises applied, although the levels are different. Further studies on the subject by increasing the number of participants in different groups and using electronic devices will be useful.Keywords: Bosu Ball, Motor Skills, Push-Up, Upper extremity, Volleyball

Published: October 2023

With the new technologies including big data, cloud computing, the Internet of Things (IoT), mobile Internet, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) coming into widespread in the secondary distribution system, it makes the network boundary more fuzzy, and the network security risk points and exposed surfaces significantly increase. Therefore, the traditional boundary-based security protection model has been unable to meet the protection needs. As one of the most popular security concepts at present, the zero trust mechanism can achieve the dynamic protection of information intranets. Based on the concept of zero trust security and software defined perimeter (SDP) technology, this paper designs and implements a security scheme suitable for the secondary distribution system and proposes a novel identity authentication model which can solve the problems of port exposure that existed in the traditional authentication scheme. In addition, the model applies the SM9 identification algorithm to reduce the computational cost of the encryption and decryption in the proposed scheme. Finally, the performance analysis demonstrates that the proposed scheme is effective and suitable for the secondary distribution system which can effectively resist multiple types of network attacks.

Published: October 2023

With the increasing number of mobile communication devices, the problem of insufficient spectrum resources has emerged. In addition, traditional spectrum allocation model also exacerbates the problem by under utilizing idle spectrum. We propose a dynamic spectrum scheme based on Tabu-Q learning. Firstly, the spectrum allocation problem is formulated as a continuous Markov decision process (MDP), premised on the power constraints of primary users (PUs) and secondary users (SUs) are met. Tabu-Q learning is applied to adjust optimization strategy, so as to maximize the total transmission rate of users. Secondly, the idea of cooperative learning is added in the scheme to improve the convergence speed of algorithm. That is, new users are allowed to learn the experience of old users, so as to improve the speed of spectrum sensing and save the execution time of algorithm. Finally, The mean opinion score (MOS) is used to measure different traffic. The simulation shows that when the number of users is consistent, Tabu-Q learning can improve the transmission bit rate by about 13% compared with Q learning, and keep MOS above the acceptable level (MOS>3). In summary, the scheme proposed in this paper can effectively improve the utilization of idle spectrum.

In this important understanding of machining, mechanical maintenance fitter occupies an important position. Machine repair fitters are mainly responsible for the processing and maintenance of various mechanical equipment, and use scientific control methods to restore mechanical properties. Therefore, we can see that the faults in machine maintenance need quick maintenance by fitters to solve various problems that often occur in machine maintenance. In this case, the fitter must master basic machine maintenance skills and use excellent information technology to assist in the installation of various machines. Therefore, this article gives a brief introduction to the machine fitters used for machine maintenance and shows how to increase their repair capacity to make machine maintenance more efficient. With the progress of scientific and the rapid increase in productivity, competition between enterprises is more and more intense. If enterprises want to maintain a high competitiveness and advantages, they need to focus on the research and development of core technology of their companies and improve core competitiveness. So in such a large background, many companies choose to focus on the development of their core business, and then they need other enterprises to complete their own non-core business resources. In such a development process, the logistics industry will gradually separated and then the third-party logistic enterprises show up.

Authors: Fronk Emily , Welp Annalyn , Dibbern Megan , Mills Anne , Cantrell Leigh
Published: October 2023

Introduction: Metastasis of pancreatic adenocarcinoma to the ovaries is uncommon and can clinically present similarly to primary ovarian disease, presenting challenges for diagnosis. Immunohistochemical staining is typically useful in distinguishing ovarian primaries from ovarian metastasis. A newer and rarer variant of pancreatic adenocarcinoma, that with intestinal-type differentiation, has not previously been reported as metastasizing to the ovary. Its diagnosis is particularly difficult due to the overlap in staining patterns with primary ovarian neoplasms.

Case Report: This case report presents the case of a 60-year-old female who presented with non-specific abdominal symptoms and was found to have a large adnexal mass. Imaging showed additional lesions in the peritoneum, pancreas, and liver. She underwent biopsy with morphology and immunohistochemical staining consistent with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma with intestinal-type differentiation. She was started on FOLFIRINOX therapy but ultimately opted to pursue comfort care due to disease progression.

Conclusion: Although rare, with this being the first report of this disease course to our knowledge, clinicians should be aware of this possibility, as it impacts choice of treatment.

Published: October 2023

Vários argumentos podem ser usados a favor da ideia de que existe uma predisposição no ser humano para gostar da natureza. Nesse sentido a biofilia se manifestará melhor e de forma mais marcada se proporcionarmos ambientes apropriados para o desenvolvimento humano e para a vida, por meio de atividades inseridas em ambiente de caverna. Se não for incentivada com experiências afetivas adequadas, a função de biofilia não terá seu pleno despertar. O estudo teve como compreender os benefícios corporais da atividade na natureza em ambiente caverna, por meio das relações biofílicas a partir da percepção dos participantes dessa pesquisa. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa, desenvolvida junto a Associação de Agentes Ambientais do Vale do Peruaçu com 10 indivíduos. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas, processados no IRAMUTEQ e a análise de similitude feita.

Published: October 2023

Concerned about balancing issues of global warming and economic growth, the growing needs of energy consumption in contexts with limited production and resources have created a serious challenge for developing countries like Pakistan. Research approaches that focus mainly on the production or purchase of environmentally friendly products or assessment of the stance of employees and households are not seen as sufficient to present the full picture of any society regarding energy saving behaviors (ESB). The attitudes and behaviors of the student population have generally not been sufficiently presented in energy saving studies to reflect current or emerging realities. Two leading behavioral theories, stimulus-organism-response theory (SOR) and the theory of planned behavior (TPB), and their relevant variables are integrated in this study to unpack the ESB of university-going students in Pakistan. Through an online survey, 410 university students from the four main urban cities of Pakistan participated in the study. The findings revealed that media and organizational climate have significantly created both a sense of social pressure and responsibility among students to cultivate stronger intentions and actions toward saving energy. The results further indicated that these behavioral intentions do indeed have a strong impact on students reported ESB. Overall, the students appeared to have been effectively influenced to be more active in saving energy for their society and country. The findings also validate the selected energy-related constructs and predictive paths in the proposed integrated SOR and TPB model. This study shows the potential for the further testing and application of the variables and this model in other contexts with other populations as the world grapples with energy shortages and global climate change issues.
A31Skills2u – using ward-based toolkit training to address frequently identified technical skills performance errors during in situ simulation
Authors: Suggitt Debbie , Baxter David , Baxter Jeanette , Sharman Matthew , Murdoch Jodie , Colgan Aoife
Published: October 2023

Background and aim:

Delayed airway management was identified in 70% (9 of 13) of Insitu simulation (ISS) with an average time of 3.42 minutes from identification of the problem to management. The resuscitation council UK suggest that in most patients presenting with a compromised airway, simple actions are sufficient to stabilize them, failing to do so increases the risk of hypoxia and multi-organ failure [1]. To address this trust wide training was initiated through the ‘skills2u’ programme, where toolbox teaching was taken to the wards.

Methods:

Across a two-week period, a multiprofessional team comprising of the simulation faculty, anaesthetists, and advanced clinical practitioners, visited all clinical areas and delivered a short 10–15-minute practical ward-based interactive session to the interprofessional team. The session covered airway assessment, airway opening manoeuvres and opportunity to practice inserting basic airway adjuncts.

Results:

412 clinical staff, of all grades and disciplines, were taught in basic airway management of the deteriorating and arrested patient. Evaluation of the teaching revealed 95.5% of staff agreed it was relevant to their role and 98% agreed they now felt better prepared to respond to changes in a patient’s condition. In the subsequent three months, technical skills performance errors for airway management were identified in 15% of 10 ISS completed. In these simulations the average time taken to manage the airway from identification of the problem reduced to 1.39 minutes.

Conclusion:

Using ISS to identify technical skills performance errors followed by a trust wide ward-based education programme is an effective way to enhance patient safety.

A17Digital patient simulation versus patient actors – what do participants prefer?
Authors: Bachra Josh , Wright Jonathan , Junaid Kehinde
Published: October 2023

Background and aim:

Nottinghamshire Healthcare Medical Education delivers simulation-based learning to over 500 medical students and junior doctors each year. The scenarios for these sessions are co-produced and delivered with a simulated patient actor. In January 2023, we introduced a new type of simulation allowing participants to interact with a digital patient. The AVATr digital patient received good feedback delivered remotely [1], but we intended to use it face to face. Our aim was to find out whether participants found the digital patient more or less useful than the patient actor. A secondary aim was to explore if the digital patient was helpful in preparing for simulation with a patient actor.

Methods:

The digital patient simulation was delivered in the morning of a full-day session to a cohort of F2 doctors. Participants sat on a chair in front of a green screen with a go-pro filming them. Participants were able to see themselves in a third-person perspective on a TV screen and interact with a digital patient. The digital patient was controlled by a facilitator who chose responses from a grid depending on what had been asked and how it had been asked. The participants experienced two scenarios – one around assessing psychosis and one on adult self-harm. The participants also had a simulation later that day with a patient actor. We collected qualitative and quantitative feedback via digital forms and analysed the results.

Results:

Ninety-two participants attended the sessions between January 2023 and March 2023. 70% of participants Agreed or Strongly agreed that the virtual patient was useful, compared to 100% for the patient actor. If facilitator familiarity with technology was adjusted for 68% of participants, Agreed or Strongly agreed the digital patient was useful. Eighty-six per cent of participants believed that digital patient simulation helped them prepare for the patient actor simulation. Total numbers in Figure 1-A17. Reasons participants gave for not finding the digital patient useful fell into four main themes: the limited nature of the responses the patient could give, the artificiality of the arrangement, the awkwardness of the technology and the relevance of being able to see yourself in the third person.

Conclusion:

We found that whilst participants overwhelming preferred simulation with a patient actor to simulation with a digital patient, the digital patient played a role in helping prepare participants for simulation with a patient actor.

A8Mental health professionals’ lived experiences of simulated ligature training: a phenomenological study
Authors: Mitchell Aby , Hill Barry
Published: October 2023

Background and aim:

Ligature and death by hanging represent critical issues in nursing practice that necessitate ongoing vigilance and assessment from healthcare practitioners [1–3]. This study delves into the lived experiences of healthcare professionals participating in a simulated ligature training and management workshop at a London university. The phenomenological research aims to offer an in-depth comprehension of the benefits and challenges associated with employing a simulation-based approach to ligature management training for mental health care professionals.

Methods:

A purposive sample of 10 healthcare professionals working in in-patient settings were invited to partake in a 2-day simulation-based ligature management workshop. Participants were aged 18 years or older and were able to provide written informed consent. Qualitative data were gathered following the 2-day simulation workshop through audio recordings and verbatim transcriptions, which were subsequently thematically analysed and interpreted by the research team.

Results:

Thematic analysis of in-depth interviews unveiled three principal themes: (1) transformative experience, (2) altered perspectives on ligature training, and (3) patient-centred risk management and empowerment. The study offers valuable insights into the lived experiences of healthcare professionals within a simulated learning environment, contributing to a more profound understanding of effective training strategies for handling ligature-related situations in clinical practice.

Conclusion:

The findings indicate that simulation-based training can bolster the competence, resilience and preparedness of mental health professionals in managing ligature-related situations. Moreover, involving patients in devising their own risk management plans and delivering individualized care can result in improved patient outcomes and diminished staff burnout. This study sheds light on effective training strategies for mental health professionals in tackling complex and challenging circumstances in mental health care.
