Authors: Singh Anjali , Bharti Ruchi , Thakur Ajay , Verma Monika , Sharma Renu
Published: January 2025

The aim of this study was to synthesize iron oxide nanoparticles (NPs) using an aqueous extract obtained from the leaves of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, commonly known as China rose. By employing an environmentally friendly approach, the production of small-sized and highly stable FeO-NPs was achieved, offering promising prospects for environmental preservation by eliminating the need for harmful chemicals. The synthesis process involved the extraction of the plant material through decoction, followed by the reaction with ferrous sulphate (FeSO4) at room temperature for one hour. Various analytical techniques, including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), UV-visible spectrophotometry (UV-Vis), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM-EDX), were employed to characterize the synthesized FeO-NPs. Additionally, their antioxidant activity was evaluated against 2,2-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). The results indicated that FeO-NPs derived from Hibiscus rosa-sinensis possessed significant antioxidant properties, suggesting their potential utility in various applications.

Published: January 2025

The present research article introduces a novel, environmentally friendly method for synthesizing ironoxide nanoparticles (IONPs) utilizing Callistemon viminalis flowers extract as both a reducing and capping agent. This approach not only offers a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to conventional synthesis methods but also harnesses the inherent phytochemical potential of the plant extract. The synthesized IONPs underwent comprehensive characterization using various analytical techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and dynamic light scattering (DLS) to elucidate their structural, morphological, and chemical properties. Subsequently, the synthesized IONPs were evaluated for their potential antioxidant properties. The research findings contribute valuable insights into the synthesis process, structural characteristics, and antioxidant efficacy of the synthesized nanoparticles, offering promising avenues for addressing both health and environmental challenges with innovative solutions.
The Writer's Library as a Response to Nazi Ideology During the Second World War
Authors: Mamatsashvili Atinati
Published: January 2025

In the Fantasia of the Library, Michel Foucault posits that the library represents a place where knowledge and dreams converge. In this context, it seems appropriate to conceptualise the writer’s library as a “network”, specifically an “open network”, which is subject to constant transformation and linked to other libraries. The present study will focus on two Belgian writers: Paul Willems (1912–1997) and Max Servais (1904–1990). It will examine the extent to which the imaginary library constructed through reading, quotations or pictorial references creates this other space of non-resignation in the specific historical context of the Second World War. This reflection is an attempt to introduce another hermeneutic level that sets up the library as a response to Nazi ideology.
Visualizing the Invisible: A Multimodal Analysis of How the Blowin’ in the Wind Picturebook Adaptation Interprets Abstract Song Themes
Authors: Xiong Zhe , Wu Wu
Published: January 2025

Multimodal literature can enhance the cross-cultural communication of classical music. Combining media, such as songs and picturebooks, artistic nuances not conveyed through music alone can be revealed, so that the audience can foster a deeper understanding of the original work’s cultural values and profound meanings. For example, Bob Dylan’s Blowin’ in the Wind was adapted into an English picturebook in 2011 and was introduced and translated into Chinese in 2018. The Chinese edition skillfully integrates music, illustrations, translations, and annotations to illuminate the song’s themes of ideal values, fraternity, and Zen wisdom. Consequently, the readers’ auditory, visual, and tactile senses are fully engaged, allowing them to develop a comprehensive and profound understanding of the song’s subtle connotations.
Soliloquy as Love and Change: Molly Bloom and Ducks, Newburyport
Authors: Naporowski Mateusz
Published: January 2025

The aim of this paper is to examine two stream-of-consciousness soliloquies delivered by the heroines of James Joyce’s Ulysses (1922) and Lucy Ellmann’s Ducks, Newburyport (2019) in order to underline the possibility of reidentification and change of one’s mindset by means of language. Firstly, the background for the significance of the two characters is outlined since both are presented as fleshed-out female characters that struggle with the reality of their lives. Then the two heroines are respectively positioned in a discourse outlined by Roland Barthes in his A Lover’s Discourse: Fragments (1978), which identifies solitude as the main obstacle in the act of loving. Thus, in the two soliloquies, elements of Barthes’s discourse, called ‘figures,’ are identified in order to outline and analyze each woman’s situation. Despite their differences, both everywomen prove, each in her own way, that the seeming overthinking about a given situation can lead to personal empowerment through an act of (self-)loving, reconciliation with and acceptance of one’s worries regardless of whether the struggle takes place in Dublin at the beginning of the 20th century or in the 21st-century America. The two women’s escape from the dissatisfying status quo suggests the universality of experience and shows that soliloquy may be deployed as a helpful tool in a moment of crisis in one’s personal life.
Telling Her Story: The Representation of Women in Hamilton: An American Musical (2015)
Authors: Dalel Berraf Hana Lina
Published: January 2025

“Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story?”. These were the three questions that resonated within the walls of The Public Theater, New York City, as what critics would later describe as an outstanding performance came to an end on the 20th of January 2015. Hamilton: An American Musical’s author, Lin-Manuel Miranda, has been praised for turning the story of Alexander Hamilton, the United States’ first Secretary of Treasury, into an inclusive work of art which has since often been associated with the word “revolutionary”. It is undeniable that, much to some historians’ joy and others’ dismay (Herrera 2018), the musical based on Ron Chernow’s 2004 biography Alexander Hamilton succeeded not only in modernizing and “humanizing” the image of some of the Founding Fathers, therefore reintroducing them into popular culture, but also in redirecting the projectors towards non-white musical performers by turning what is often told as a white men centered narrative into an immigrant success story. Nevertheless, one ought to question whether the musical truly succeeds in its attempt to ‘revolutionize’ the historical narrative by analyzing an important aspect of the Founding Era: the lack of importance given to the women who are so often omitted from the narrative. This article will analyze Miranda’s representation of Angelica and Eliza Schuyler as well as Maria Reynolds in an attempt to highlight the simultaneous contemporary struggle to integrate feminism into the dramatic and male focused milieu of historical musical theater. To do so, equal importance will be given to the analysis of the audio-visual content of the performance and Miranda’s socio-cultural context.
Disrupted Patriarchy – Powers of Pregnant Women in Halsey’s If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power (2021)
Authors: Bagińska Kamila Klavia
Published: January 2025

Horror movies are the main contradictors of the cultural characterization of pregnancy as a blissful and positive experience. The representation of characters within the genre withdraws from that practice and offers stories where gestating women disrupt the patriarchal order through an attempt to reclaim their autonomy. In this work, I analyze the issue of horror pregnancy and the numerous binaries that try to define women in the patriarchal structures. This work proposes that Halsey’s independent movie If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power (2021) is a story of a woman who does not conform to misogynistic categories through mystical pregnancy. I will trace the evolution of the binaries that began with Freud’s Madonna Whore Dichotomy to Erin Harrington’s “Good” and “Bad” Mother theory to delineate that Halsey’s movie is a contemporary attempt to reintroduce and reframe the theories about women’s sexuality and identity. While referencing the conclusions of feminist scholars like Shulamith Firestone and Betty Friedan, I present how the patriarchal culture often excludes, demonizes, and limits pregnant women’s significance as individuals. A close reading of the scenes and the soundtrack to the movie suggests that If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power uses the trope of horror pregnancy to point out the patriarchal discrimination of pregnant women’s empowerment. In that, the feminist interpretation of Halsey’s movie breaks down the stereotype of a monstrous gestating woman to present that pregnancy can come with a form of power.
Challenging the Wisdom of Proverbs in Anti-Proverbs in Five Languages
Authors: Furkatovich Zayniev Daler , Hegedűs Dániel
Published: January 2025

Anti-Proverbs in Five Languages: Structural Features and Verbal Humor Devices
authored by Anna T. Litovkina and her colleagues, is the latest contribution to the academic discourse on the intriguing topic of anti-proverbs. Taking an interlinguistic, comparative approach, this work promises a more comprehensive perspective on how people make use of such unconventional means of communication, as English, German, French, Russian, and Hungarian examples comprise the rich subject of investigation. In addition to providing a plethora of vivid examples, such a work is also expected to offer an explanation for the communicative purpose of anti-proverbial constructions. When do people use anti-proverbs? How do people use anti-proverbs? And most importantly, why do people use anti-proverbs? This review assesses whether and to what extent the book provides answers to these questions. The structure of the review does not chronologically follow the structure of the book; instead, it endeavors to reflect on the content of the work according to the major topics it immerses in.
Nicholas Urfe’s Individuation and Existential Development in The Magus by John Fowles
Authors: Szymczyk Marta
Published: January 2025

This article attempts to establish a connection between Jungian analytical psychology and Albert Camus’s existentialism using the example of The Magus by John Fowles. The novel has already been analysed in the context of these theories separately (Ładuch 2022; Onega 1989). However, little has been said about the similarities between the two concepts and how Fowles’s narrative foregrounds them. Jung’s individuation is a process of acknowledging and exploring the archetypes, i.e., separate elements of the collective unconscious, while Camus’s philosophy deals primarily with the clash between the human urge for knowledge and the silence of the world. The article seeks to demonstrate that it is possible to depict a step-by-step personal development process from the writings of these authors and find similarities between them, especially with regard to their outcomes. Influenced by his experiences on Bourani, the protagonist of The Magus goes through individuation that blend elements of Jung’s and Camus’s visions. The “godgame” prepared for Nicholas by Maurice Conchis could be interpreted as both a realisation of the absurd and an opportunity to deal with archetypes. As a result of the experiment, the protagonist becomes authentic, starts to make an effort to maintain personal relationships, and establishes an individual moral code. Finally, the paper asserts that the process is circular, i.e., never-ending, and requires constant effort, which also corresponds with Jung’s and Camus’s frameworks.
Effect of Azathioprine on Skin and Lung Parameters in Patients with Systemic Sclerosis: A Systematic Literature Review
Authors: Torun Ege , Ertaş Elif , Bayyiğit Akif , Uğurlukişi Bilal
Published: January 2025

Introduction: Immunosuppressives can be effective in skin and lung involvement in systemic sclerosis(SSc). This study aims to analyse the efficacy of azathioprine in skin and lung parameters in SSc patients, comparing its efficacy with other immunosuppressives.

Method: A systematic literature review was performed. “Patient, intervention, comparison, outcome” method was used to screen studies. All studies that reported pretreatment and posttreatment modified Rodnan skin score (mRSS), forced vital capacity (FVC) and diffusşon capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) in SSc patients were included. Meta-analysis was performed where “mean difference” was used to assess the size of the change of pretreatment and posttreatment mean mRSS, FVC and DLCO values in azathioprine group and comparison group.

Results: Ten studies were included. One study demonstrated the role of azathioprine in maintaining the improvement in mRSS after induction treatment with cyclophosphamide. Five studies demonstrated the role of azathioprine as a maintenance agent in SSc interstitial lung disease after cyclophosphamide and three retrospective studies demonstrated the role of azathioprine alone in preserving FVC and DLCO. Two studies were included in meta-analysis of azathioprine and cyclophosphamide, which did not demonstrate significant differences between two drugs in terms of the change in mRSS, FVC and DLCO.

Conclusion: Azathioprine seems to have a role in stabilizing lung function tests after induction treatment with cyclophosphamide. Azathioprine alone can be effective in preserving lung functions a subset of SSc patients with interstitial lung disease. There is no evidence to use azathioprine alone in treatment of skin disease. The failure of meta-analysis to find significant difference between azathioprine and cyclophosphamide is probably due to the major differences in the characteristics of the study populations.
A101: Effects of Combining Electrical Muscle Stimulation with Strength
Training on Lower Limb Mechanics With PFPS
Authors: Yang Xiaowei , Xue Boshi , Yao Yingce , Zheng Liangliang , Zhou Zhipeng
Published: January 2025

Background: Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a common
causative factor of knee pain. Exercise and electrical muscle stimulation
(EMS) have been shown to improve knee function and relieve pain in patients
with PFPS. However, the effect of exercise and EMS training on lower limb
mechanics is unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the lower
limb mechanics during single-leg squats following 6-week training
interventions of exercise and EMS.

Methods: 46 participants were recruited and randomly assigned
into the muscle strength training (MST) group (21.5±3.8 yr,
174.7±8.4 cm, 69.5±11.7 kg) and combining EMS with strength
training (EMS) group (22.2±4.3 yr, 173.8±7.4 cm, 72.4±13.2
kg) from the local university. Lower limb mechanics during single-leg squats
were collected at the baseline and following the 6-week intervention for
each group by using infrared motion capture systems and force platform.
Two-way (group by time) analysis of covariance tests with repeated measures
were applied to analyze the data.

Results: ANCOVA with repeated measures indicated that during
single-leg squat, both groups showed significant decreases in peak
patellofemoral joint stress (F=30.384, P
< 0.001, η 2=0.459), peak patellofemoral joint stress force (F=25.063, P < 0.001, η
2=0.379), knee extension moment (F=13.603, P=0.001, η
2=0.264), knee abduction moment (F=5.086, P=0.030, η
2=0.113) and knee external rotation moment (F=4.277, P=0.045, η
2=0.099) over time, but the EMS group had a larger change in peak
patellofemoral joint stress (F=5.910, P=0.020, η
2=0.138) over time compared to the MST group.

Conclusions: EMS training is beneficial for altering lower limb
movement patterns and joint loading during single-leg squats in patients
with PFPS compared to MST.
A106: Motivations for Grassroots Inheritance of Intangible Cultural
Heritage
Authors: Liu Lu
Published: January 2025

Background: The protection movement for intangible cultural
heritage is gradually becoming a global trend. However, the intangible
heritage protection movements led by governmental organizations have been
criticized for issues related to "authenticity" and "nationalism." Bottom-up
inheritance and protection, or grassroots heritage preservation, refers to
the process where intangible cultural heritage is continuously passed down
within local communities and by the people themselves. Currently, there is
limited research discussing intangible cultural heritage from the
perspective of grassroots inheritance. This study selects collective action
theory as the analytical framework and examined the motivations behind the
formation of the Yingge team in DH village in the Chaoshan area of China,
exploring the strategies they employ to achieve common goals
collaboratively, providing references for grassroots involvement in the
planning and protection of intangible cultural heritage preservation.

Method: Data were collected through participatory observation
and semi-structured interviews, with two core questions being "Why did you
join the Yingge team?" and "What motivates you to continue training?"
Finally, a three-step content analysis process was used to analyze the data
and extract key insights.

Results: The study concluded three main points: 1. Collective
nostalgia motivates villagers to participate in the inheritance of the
Yingge dance, strengthening collective identity by preserving traditional
customs. 2. A stable living environment and superior material foundation
have shifted villagers' needs towards seeking greater social recognition and
attention, with participation in the Yingge team being one way to achieve
this. 3. The activities of the Yingge team are not only a form of intangible
cultural heritage inheritance but also a way to bring the extended family
together again, driven by the belief in fighting for family honor.

Conclusion/Discussion: The villagers' motivation to participate
is more rooted in respect for cultural traditions and the maintenance of
clan honor. This collective action driven by internal beliefs and values
reflects the behavior model of the "conceptual person." This finding
effectively refutes the rational actor assumption in traditional collective
action theory. Therefore, understanding and utilizing this motivational
mechanism based on the conceptual person assumption is crucial for promoting
the grassroots inheritance and protection of intangible cultural
heritage.
A116: The Dilemma and Solution Strategies of Physical Education Teachers'
Informatization Teaching
Authors: Zhuo Chen
Published: January 2025

Purpose: This study was dedicated to discussing the challenges
and corresponding solutions in the process of informatized teaching and
learning in physical education, and to provide a practical direction for the
training of teachers for the improvement of students' learning effectiveness
in the future education.

Method: Semi-structured interviews and classroom observation
methods were used to understand the main challenges in physical education
informatization teaching from physical education teachers and students.
Through selected cases of excellent educational platforms, professional
forums and physical education courses in physical education organizations,
we analyzed the effectiveness of informatization teaching as well as
students' participation and interaction.

Results: Physical education informatization teaching faces
multiple challenges: firstly, teachers are limited by insufficient resources
and personal information literacy, resulting in limited application of
information technology; some teachers used technology for the sake of using
technology or blindly applied information technology; secondly, students'
classroom participation was low, which affected the maximization of the
teaching effect. Solution strategies are as follows: First, it is
recommended to increase the investment in educational technology resources
and encourage teachers to utilize existing technologies innovatively. For
example, interactive teaching methods such as gamified learning and virtual
reality are introduced to effectively stimulate students' learning interest
and participation. Second, regular training and workshops should be provided
for teachers to enable them to master the latest educational technology and
teaching strategies, improve their ability to solve practical teaching
problems and promote the overall improvement of teaching quality.

Discussion: This study highlighted the need for
multidimensional solution strategies, including optimization of resource
allocation, improvement of teachers' professional skills, and innovation of
teaching methods. These strategies promoted the effective integration of
physical education and technology, and also improved students' motivation to
learn, thus maximizing teaching goals. In addition, the study revealed the
importance of building a supportive teaching and learning environment to
achieve the teaching and learning objectives. This included, but was not
limited to, the provision of adequate educational technology resources, the
establishment of continuous teacher professional development mechanisms, and
the creation of a positive learning climate. Through these comprehensive
measures, the development of school physical education informatization
teaching will be further promoted to create a richer and more interactive
learning environment for students, and ultimately realize the educational
goal of students' all-round development.
A117: ICT Physical Education Case Preparation: Based on the Japan "One
Student, One Terminal" Case
Authors: Yang Ke , Huang Aifeng
Published: January 2025

Purpose: Case preparation as an important means of knowledge
production and theory construction. Case preparation for physical education
and health curricula is a crucial channel for promoting curriculum reform.
Currently, Japan is driving curriculum transformation through the ICT
(Information and Communication Technologies) "one student, one terminal”
case. China has developed a strong case resource base for digital
applications in school sports, but there are relatively few case studies for
teaching physical education and health courses. Therefore, the purpose of
this paper was to discuss the role of course case preparation, as well as
the problems in practice, and then to propose key directions to solve the
problem.

Method: This paper collected, analyzed and compared the
information related to the case preparation of ICT physical education
curriculum in China and Japan through the methods of literature and
comparative research, to deeply explore the differences and commonalities
between China and Japan in the process of ICT physical education curriculum
reform.

Results: (1) Physical education curriculum case preparation
contributed to testing the potential of ICT application in physical
education teaching and then continuously adjusts and improves it; (2) China
should thematically strengthen the focus on digital literacy of physical
education teachers, improve the interface with the curriculum teaching
content, as well as carry out a rich and dynamic pedagogical evaluation; (3)
Deconstructing the problem in terms of reconciling teacher literacy with
educational technology under the alignment of values, course content with
technological innovation under the sharing of resources, and teaching
evaluation with technological rationality under the availability of
technology; (4) Enhancing the digital literacy of physical education
teachers with discourse system innovation, expanding the content of physical
education courses with better ICT pedagogical design, and enriching the
evaluation of physical education teaching in the benign construction of
human-computer relationship.

Conclusion: Although the "one-student, one-terminal" physical
education class in the transformation of Japan's "superintelligent society"
is a brand-new attempt, the advanced educational theories and teaching
concepts behind it should be paid attention to because they point to the
demand for high-quality human resources cultivation in modern education. For
physical education in China, ICT curriculum case preparation is both a
pathway for the advancement of physical education curriculum reform and a
realistic way to implement the digitalization of education initiative.
A118: Economic Burden of Chronic Diseases Attributed to Physical
Inactivity in China
Authors: Chen Danni , He Zhonghui
Published: January 2025

Background/Purpose: The benefits of physical activity in
reducing morbidity and mortality rates have been widely recognized in recent
years. However, the impact of physical inactivity on direct healthcare costs
remains poorly understood. This study aimed to assess the direct economic
burden of hospitalization due to two common chronic diseases
(cerebrovascular disease and diabetes) caused by physical inactivity, to
inform public health awareness and policy-making.

Methods: Utilizing data from the 2018 China Family Panel
Studies and the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, we selected
1,704 patients hospitalized for chronic diseases in the past year. Data were
analyzed using ANCOVA with repeated measures and logistic regression to
calculate the relative odds associated with physical inactivity, accounting
for confounding factors like age, gender, education, marital status, and
urban-rural residence. The Population Attributable Risk percent (PAR%) and
the per capita direct disease burden attributable to physical inactivity
were calculated to ascertain its impact on healthcare costs.

Results: Compared to those who regularly engage in physical
exercise, individuals with insufficient physical activity had a 38.3% higher
odds of developing cerebrovascular disease (OR = 1.383, P = 0.011, CI =
1.076 - 1.778) and an 84.9% higher odds of developing diabetes (OR = 1.849,
P < 0.001, CI = 1.381 - 2.476). The direct economic burden for patients
with cerebrovascular disease and diabetes was respectively ¥298,898.46 and
¥79,242.914, with physical inactivity accounting for ¥48,690.56 (PAR =
16.29%) and ¥23,883.81 (PAR = 30.14%) of these costs. This translates to a
per capita direct economic burden due to physical inactivity of ¥172.66 and
¥113.73, respectively.

Conclusion: The findings suggested that regular moderate
physical exercise can significantly reduce healthcare costs related to
chronic diseases. Physical inactivity not only increases the risk of disease
but also imposes an economic burden on individuals and society. Thus,
promoting a healthy lifestyle and encouraging active participation in
physical exercise is crucial for reducing healthcare expenses and enhancing
public health. Future research could explore demographic differences in the
relationship between physical activity and healthcare costs.
A119: Intermittent Hypoxic Training Promotes Whole-Body HIF-1Α
Expression to Improve Exercise Capacity
Authors: Li Yuepeng , Zheng Lan
Published: January 2025

Research Context: It has been shown that a hypoxic environment induces
up-regulation of HIF-1α and changes in its downstream gene sequences, and
that exercising under hypoxic conditions improves athletes' sprint
performance. However, there is more controversy regarding the effects of
exercise under hypoxic conditions on exercise capacity, and the molecular
mechanisms have been less well studied. Therefore, the aim of this study was
to investigate the link between HIF-1α expression and exercise capacity
under hypoxic conditions of exercise, and to provide a realistic theoretical
basis for intermittent hypoxic training to improve exercise capacity.

Research Methodology: A total of 480 wild-type female Drosophila flies that
were fledged within 12 hours were collected and randomly divided into
control (NC), hypoxic quiet (HC), normoxic exercise (NE), and intermittent
hypoxic training (HE) groups, with 120 flies in each group. At 7 days of
age, intermittent hypoxic, normoxic and hypoxic combined exercise
interventions were performed for 5 consecutive days, lasting 1 hour per day,
respectively. Gases used in both the HC and HE groups were a mixture of 6%
O2 and 94% N2. RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression of HIF-1α
throughout the body, and the average speed, acceleration, and distance moved
per unit time of Drosophila were quantified using LoliTrack Animal
Behavioral Analysis Software, as well as the jumping ability and climbing
ability of Drosophila.

Findings: Intermittent hypoxic exposure, normoxic exercise, and intermittent
hypoxic training all significantly upregulated HIF-1α expression compared
with the NC group (P < 0.001). In terms of jumping ability, both
intermittent hypoxic training and normoxic exercise improved the climbing
ability of Drosophila compared to the NC group (P < 0.001), whereas
intermittent hypoxic exposure alone did not play a role. In terms of
climbing ability, Drosophila's jumping ability was significantly improved
after intermittent hypoxic training compared to the NC group (P < 0.001);
however, no significant changes could be observed in experiments with
normoxic exercise as well as intermittent hypoxic exposure. In terms of
behavioral analysis, the mean speed of Drosophila movement was increased in
the HE group compared to the NC group (P < 0.001), acceleration increased
(P < 0.001), distance traveled increased (P < 0.001), and normoxic
exercise increased the distance traveled by Drosophila (P < 0.05).

Conclusion: Intermittent hypoxic training promotes HIF-1Α expression and
improves locomotor performance in Drosophila.

Background/Purpose: Children's rough movement development delay is not good,
and the current health status of children is not optimistic. Therefore, this
study relied on the concept of KDL sports games to implement a systematic
and comprehensive sports intervention of "online intervention, school and
family exercise promotion". Using an AI sports app, according to the
characteristics of children's physical and mental development, comprehensive
design structured online KDL movement experiment scheme, effective
organization and tracking feedback, was used to verify the KDL sports games
in 3-6 years old big movement slow children, and to create online exercise
intervention mode, enrich exercise intervention form, and to provide
ideas.

Methods/Design: In this study, we randomly selected three kindergartens in
Pudong New Area of Shanghai, including 50 children (male 23 and 27 female)
aged 3-6 years as the research objects, and implemented online exercise
intervention for half an hour a day, 7 days a week for 6 months. Online
intervention combined with KDL sports game concept, using an AI sports APP
was given priority to with interesting scene teaching, through the design of
"walking, running, jumping" theme of personalized sports intervention games,
decorate "personal movement ability" and "family movement" online sports
clock, family, school, community, daily to parents targeted sports feedback,
monthly to the teacher targeted movement feedback. AI exercise APP was used
before and after the intervention. Data were processed by descriptive
statistics, using paired sample T-test and ANOVA.

Results: The paired sample T-test of children's motor ability scores showed
that the overall level of children's motor ability before and after the
experiment varied significantly (t = -24.859, p = 0.000 < 0.01, see Table
for details). Therefore, KDL online sports games had obvious effects on
rough movements. ANOVA on locomotor scores before and after the test.
According to the results of ANOVA, there was no significant difference in
the exercise capacity before and after the experiment (F = 1.248, p = 0.292
> 0.05). Online intervention had a balanced effect on improving
children's exercise ability.

Conclusion: Through the organic combination of the concept of KDL sports
games and the new mode, the KDL online sports games with rich types and
various forms are reasonably designed, which can effectively improve the
rough movement level of children ages 3-6 years old. Online KDL sports game
intervention fits with the sensitive period of children's movement
development, and comprehensively improves the sports ability of
children.
A127: Research on Fundamental Motor Skills of Elementary School Students
Based on Physical Movement Functional Training
Authors: Nie Dongfeng , Ji Chenyu , Zhang Yuting , Xiao Tianlong
Published: January 2025

Background/Purpose: Fundamental motor skills (FMS) play a key role in the
overall development of children. Physical movement functional training
emphasizes the comprehensive development of movements. The existing research
is only involved in improving the physical quality, mobility skills and
operational skills of primary school students, and the research on the
influence of non-mobile skills needs to be deepened. This study aimed to
explore the effects of physical movement function training on non-mobile
skills in second-grade primary school pupils.

Method: Eighty second-grade students were selected as the experimental
subjects and divided into the experimental class and the control class. A
12-week teaching experiment intervention was conducted using both physical
exercise function training and traditional physical fitness training
programs, respectively. SPSS was used to analyze the scores of non-mobile
skills in the experimental class and the control class and was to examine
the effect of physical motor function training on the development of
non-mobile skills in primary school students.

Results: After the experiment, the score of non-mobile skills in the
experimental class increased by 24.18% compared with those before the
experiment (p < 0.01). The score of non-mobile skills in the control
class was less than 10% compared with the score before the experiment (p
< 0.01). The scores of the four non-mobile skill indicators in the
experimental class were significantly higher than those in the control class
(p < 0.01). The scores of straight rolling and walking on the balance
beam in the experimental class were both 0.60 points higher than those in
the control class (p < 0.01). The scores of the rolling and landing
buffering indicators in the experimental class were also 0.45 points higher
than those in the control class (p < 0.01). The training effect of the
experimental class was significantly greater than that of the control
class.

Conclusion/Discussion: Both physical exercise training and traditional
physical fitness training have a positive impact on the development of
non-mobility skills. For the muscle exercises aimed at stabilizing the hips,
back, shoulders, and center of gravity, physical exercise training had a
more significant effect on improving non-mobile skills in elementary school
students compared to traditional physical training. The specific structural
action effects of physical exercise training and traditional physical
fitness training on improving non-mobile skills in young primary school
students were completely different.
A013: The Effect of Inter-Limb Asymmetry on Swimming Performance
Authors: Zhang Xiaoang
Published: January 2025

Purpose: The aim of this systematic review was to critically appraise the
current literature on (1) the influence of bilateral asymmetries on swimming
performance and (2) the asymmetry characteristics that may affect swimming
performance in the past 10 years, to provide a reference for future related
research.

Method: An electronic search using PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCO series
databases was performed for English articles, and CNKI and Wanfang database
was performed for Chinese articles from 2013 to 2024. The methodological
quality of the studies was evaluated using a modified version of currently
established scales used in sport science, healthcare and rehabilitation.

Results: Eight studies met the eligibility criteria. Seven of which focused
on kinetic asymmetry and one focused on kinematic asymmetry. Six examined
the correlation between Symmetry Index (SI) and performance, and two
compared asymmetries in elite and non-elite groups. In terms of kinetic
asymmetry, there were inter-limb asymmetries in the propulsive force in male
swimmers, and symmetry was found not to be related with freestyle
performance, regardless of different experiment protocols. It was
controversial whether SI of propulsion force in elite group differences from
non-elite group. In terms of kinematic asymmetry, there was no statistical
difference in the SI of kinematic index between elite and non-elite groups.
It was worth noting that take-off velocity was strongly related to asymmetry
of handgrip force in the backstroke start.

Conclusion: There may not be a correlation between kinetic asymmetry and
performance. Research on kinematic asymmetry was comparatively rare within
the literature. However, these studies did not directly explore the
relationship between asymmetrical features and swimming speed. The specific
effects of limb asymmetry on swimming speed were not fully understood.
Future studies need to focus on the relationship between the symmetry of
kinematic parameters and swimming speed.
A132: Effect of Intermittent Fasting Combined with Aerobic Exercise on
Lipid Deposition in Obese Rats
Authors: Zhou Qingyuan , Zhang Lei , Wei Tonghui , Yang Mengdi , Xue Yangxin , Cui Zhengqi
Published: January 2025

Goal: With the improvement of living standards, people's diets
tend to be more and more high-fat, and long-term high-fat diets may lead to
obesity and other chronic health problems. Nearly 80% of obese patients are
accompanied by varying degrees of hepatic steatosis, so there is an urgent
need to seek a safe and effective treatment of obesity and lipid
deposition.

Methods: In this study, 3-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats were
divided into normal control group (NC), high-fat group: control group (HC),
light fasting group (HI), exercise group (HE), light fasting plus exercise
group (HIE), and light fasting, and aerobic exercise were used as
intervention methods for 10 weeks. Catabolic protein effects were
investigated to explore the effects of both on hepatic lipid deposition, and
the experimental data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 25.0, with
one-way or two-way ANOVA tests to be used, and graphs were made using
GraphPad Prism 8.0.

Findings: (1) Weight was significantly higher in the HC group
compared to the NC group (p < 0.01). Compared with the HC group, the
intervention group had lower body weight (P < 0.05), with the HIE group
having a greater reduction in body weight. (2) The results of HE and oil red
staining after 10 weeks of intervention showed that the liver structure and
histological morphology of high-fat rats underwent significant improvement
(P < 0.05), and the effect was more significant in the HIE group. (3)
Compared with the NC group, serum TG, TC, LDL, AST, ALT were elevated (P
< 0.05) and HDL was reduced (P < 0.05) in the HC group; compared with
the HC group, TG, TC, LDL, AST, ALT were reduced, and HDL was elevated (P
< 0.05) in the intervention group. (4) Compared with the NC group, the
expression of p-AMPK/AMPK, p-ACC/ACC, and CPT1 was significantly reduced in
the liver tissues of mice in the HC group (P < 0.01). The expression of
p-AMPK/AMPK, p-ACC/ACC, and CPT1 was elevated in the liver tissues of the
intervention group compared with the HC group (P < 0.05).

Discussion: The present study confirmed that the effect of
light fasting plus exercise on the improvement of lipid deposition was
better than that of one alone, which provided a new idea and direction for
the improvement of obesity and lipid deposition; however, this study did not
go into depth on the mechanism at the molecular level, which needs to be
continued to be explored.
A134: The Effect of Aerobic Exercise on Cardiorespiratory Fitness in
Obese Adolescents with High Executive Function
Authors: Qin Yuling
Published: January 2025

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of 4 weeks of
aerobic exercise on the cardiorespiratory fitness of adolescents with
obesity and varying levels of executive function.

Methods: We recruited 80 adolescents with obesity to participate in a summer
camp in China in 2022, and select 57 as research subjects based on the 2018
"Screening for Overweight and Obesity in School-Age Children and
Adolescents" standard. The participants underwent morphological and 20-meter
shuttle run tests to assess their VO2max. A comprehensive
assessment of executive function was conducted using the Stroop task, the
Wechsler Memory Scale, and the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test. The participants
were divided into low and high executive function groups based on the median
score of their EFz (Executive Function z-scores). The participants received
six days per week, two sessions per day, and two hours per session of
aerobic exercise under the guidance of professional coaches. The exercises
included fat-burning exercises, such as calisthenics, and sports like
badminton. The exercise intensity was controlled at 60-70% HRmax, and the
participants wore heart rate monitors throughout the exercise session.
During the camp, the participants' diets were managed by professional
nutritionists, and any additional energy intake was strictly prohibited.
Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0. Data were checked for
normality using the S-W test.
VO2max(mL·kg-1·min-1) values were
expressed as means and SD. ΔVO2max=W4
(VO2max)-W0(VO2max),
VO2max%=ΔVO2max/W0(VO2max)×100%,
Independent sample t-tests were used to compare groups, and paired sample
t-tests were used to compare W0 and W4 values within groups.
P < 0.05 was considered statistically
significant.

Results: After 4 weeks of aerobic exercise, there was a significant
improvement in VO2max in both the low (41.69±3.88 vs.
43.94±4.36mL·kg-1·min-1, P <
0.001) and high (41.10±3.71 vs.
44.84±3.71mL·kg-1·min-1, P <
0.001) executive function groups. There was no significant difference in
VO2max between the two groups before or after the exercise
(P = 0.536 and P = 0.407,
respectively). However, there was a significant difference in
ΔVO2max
(2.25±1.87vs.3.77±2.99mL·kg-1·min-1,
P = 0.007) and ΔVO2max% (5.43±4.67% vs.
9.45±5.77%, P = 0.006) between the low and high executive
function groups, with the high executive function group showing a
significantly greater improvement in cardiorespiratory fitness compared to
the low executive function group.

Conclusion: Four weeks of aerobic exercise can improve the cardiorespiratory
fitness of adolescents with obesity, with a greater improvement was observed
in those with high executive function compared to those with low executive
function.
A135: Effects of Exercise on Sleep Disorders in Women
Authors: Qiao Yunheng , Wang Chen , Zhang Peizhen
Published: January 2025

Objectives: Sleep disorders affect at least one-third of the
population and are more common in women, with about 40 to 55% of pre- and
post-menopausal women experiencing sleep disorders. Sleep disorders are also
strongly associated with cardiovascular disease, making it imperative to
improve them. Exercise has been reported to improve insomnia and reduce
sleep latency and hypnosis medications. Current research indicates that the
effects of exercise on sleep quality and insomnia are controversial.
Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
(RCTs) to assess the effect of exercise on sleep quality in adult women.

Method: Literature was searched up to 15 October 2023 in 7
databases (CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, CBM, PubMed, The Cochrane library, Embase)
for RCTs assessing the effects of exercise and non-exercise control
conditions on sleep quality, sleep disorders and/or insomnia in adult women.
The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was used as the outcome indicator.
Meta-analyses were conducted using random effects models. Meta-analysis was
performed using RevMan 5.3 software after screening, data extraction,
quality assessment and risk assessment of the included literature. Effects
on outcomes were expressed as standardized mean differences (SMD) and their
95% confidence interval (CI).

Result: A total of 16 papers were included for meta-analysis.
The results of the meta-analysis showed that exercise significantly improved
sleep quality (SMD = -0.42, 95% CI [-0.50, -0.35], P < 0.001), sleep
latency (SMD = -0.44, 95% CI [-0.55, -0.33], P < 0.001), sleep duration
(SMD = -0.45, 95% CI [-0.59, -0.32], P < 0.001), sleep efficiency (SMD =
-0.19, 95% CI [-0.26, -0.12], P < 0.001), sleep disturbances (SMD =
-0.92, 95% CI [-1.42, -0.43], P < 0.001), use of sleep medication (SMD =
-0.16, 95% CI [-0.28, -0.03], P < 0.02), and daytime dysfunction (SMD =
-0.39, 95% CI [-0.51, -0.26], P < 0.001), and statistically significant
differences in adult females when compared to the control group.

Discussion and Conclusion: Previous studies have shown that
12–16 weeks of exercise improves sleep, whereas the present study reveals
that just 4 weeks of exercise significantly improves sleep in women.
Although this study demonstrated the effectiveness of exercise for sleep
disorders, too few original studies were included to categorize them based
on exercise type and exercise intensity. In the future, further research is
necessary to find more appropriate exercise programs for women with sleep
disorders. The present study affirmed the role of exercise in improving
sleep in women and provided a basis for improving sleep disorders, reducing
cardiovascular risk, and improving quality of life.
