Impact of diet on vitamin D status in a selected population of pregnant mothers in Sri Lanka
Authors: Kaneshapillai Anusha , Liyanage Guwani , Hettiaratchi Usha
Published: April 2020

Context: Results of various studies have shown severe vitamin D deficiency in the Indian subcontinent in all age groups and insufficiency in populations of South-East and East Asia.  There are no data available in Sri Lanka on vitamin D status in pregnant mothers. Vitamin D supplements are not provided routinely in state sector clinics. Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences in the USA recommends safe upper limit of dietary vitamin D as 4000 IU.Aims: Thus, our aim of this study was to assess vitamin D status and adequacy of vitamin D intake through diet among pregnant mothers.Settings and Design: This is a secondary analysis of data of a prospective cohort study.Methods and Material: 89 pregnant mothers in their 3rd trimester were recruited. Food frequency questionnaire based on 7-day estimated food record method was used. Analysis of blood sample was done for vitamin D, parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcium, inorganic phosphorous and alkaline phophatase levels.Statistical analysis used: Spearman’s correlation and independent sample t-test were performed.Results: We found that 12.4%, 50.6% and 37.1% were vitamin D deficient, insufficient and sufficient respectively. 25(OH)D and PTH showed a significant negative correlation (r=0.296; P<0.01).  Yet, serum PTH level was above the cut-off only among 4.5%. Further, only 13.5% subjects had high ALP (>240 IU/L). Average daily intake of vitamin D through diet was 1289.4 ± 1225.6 IU/day (range 56 IU- 5400 IU). Significant Main source of vitamin D was fortified milk powder and small fish.Conclusions: High rate of vitamin D insufficiency/deficiency was observed and this novel finding in our cohort suggests investigating vitamin D status in pregnant mothers at a national level. Vitamin D intake through diet was not adequate in our study sample. Further, rigorous trails are needed to evaluate the requirement for supplementation to optimise the bone metabolism during pregnancy in Sri Lanka.

Towards a “Rescue Ready” Mindset: Can Lifeguard Teams Learn Lessons from the Attributes of Chronic Unease?
Authors: Doyle Billy , Webber Jonathon
Published: April 2020

Highly Reliable Organisations (HROs) are safety-centric organisations that operate in complex environments alongside risky technologies and processes. There is a high risk of catastrophe and error in these settings, the consequences of which may result in loss of life, financial cost, and damage to the environment. “Chronic unease” is a concept originally adopted by Royal Dutch Shell describing a mindset that has five predictable attributes that contribute to an individual’s and organisational safety culture. The authors of this paper describe the attributes of chronic unease in the context of lifeguard operations. A case study of a dangerous and dynamic rescue situation from a popular New Zealand beach is presented and analysed wearing a ‘cloak of chronic unease’ to draw upon the attributes of this concept and to present a discussion about how lifeguards, their managers, and leaders may learn valuable lessons from HROs to develop safer operations by fostering a similar mindset we have dubbed: “The Rescue-Ready” mindset.

Published: April 2020

The purpose of this study was to investigate differences, between swimmer-lifeguards and swimmer-non-lifeguards, in trait and state anxiety and emotion regulation techniques in a real-life precompetitive situation with a secondary focus on gender differences. The Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, Sport Anxiety Scale – 2 and the Mental Readiness Form – 3 were distributed to 100 participants at university swimming competitions in the United Kingdom. Swimmer-lifeguards displayed significantly lower cognitive (p=.03) and somatic state (p=.05) anxiety and cognitive trait anxiety (p=.02) than swimmer-non-lifeguards. Males reported significantly lower levels of cognitive and somatic trait anxiety (ppp=.01); no other effects were observed. These results support previous research regarding lifeguard characteristics, however the nature of these qualities and how they originate require further exploration.

Authors: Forde Anna , Zeman Emily , Clarke Lynn
Published: April 2020

This study examined the effectiveness of a drowning prevention program and the retention of swimming and water safety skills for 3-14 year-old children with and without disabilities. The intensive program, SWIM Central, used a top-down approach to teach 6 swimming and water safety skills during 10, 30-minute sessions. A post-participation parent survey results suggested that children ages 3-14 with and without disabilities who had previously participated in SWIM Central retained swimming and water safety skills to a similar degree. The current swim skill assessments showed that there was not an overall difference in swim skill performance in the presence of a disability; therefore, the SWIM Central program was effective in increasing overall swimming performance for children with and without disabilities.

Authors: Anderson Austin , Knee Eric , Ramos William
Published: April 2020

This study examined the impact of a LGBTQ diversity training on the attitudes and professional competencies of aquatic employees within a campus recreational sports setting. While diversity training is often discussed as a key component of inclusive aquatic programming, little empirical research examining the outcomes associated with such trainings exists. As such, members of the research team developed, implemented, and evaluated a four-month long training program consisting of one in-person training session and monthly inclusion handouts discussing issues related to the inclusion of LGBTQ participants. A comparative quantitative research design was used to measure employee’s attitudes towards the LGBTQ population and inclusive-recreational sports aquatic professional competencies for both individuals who underwent the training and a control group of employees who did not participate in the training. Results indicate initial support for this training initiative with those who attended the training scoring higher on average in both attitudinal and competency-based measures.

Authors: Quan Linda , Shephard Elena , Bennett Elizabeth
Published: April 2020

To address Washington State’s high pediatric fatal drowning rates in Asian children, especially Vietnamese, we conducted and evaluated a community water safety campaign for Vietnamese American families. Working with community groups, parks departments and public health, we disseminated three messages (learn to swim, swim with a lifeguard, and wear a life jacket) in Vietnamese media and at events, increased access to free/low cost swim lessons and availability of lifeguarded settings and life jackets in the community. Parents completed 168 pre- and 230 post-intervention self-administered, bilingual surveys. Significantly more post-intervention compared to pre-intervention respondents had heard water safety advice in the previous year, (OR 8.75 (5.07, 15.09)) and had used lifeguarded sites at lakes and rivers (OR 2.3 (1.04,5.08)). The campaign also increased community assets: availability of low-cost family swim lessons, free lessons at beaches, low cost life jacket sales, life jacket loan kiosks in multiple languages, and more Asian, including Vietnamese, lifeguards.

Published: April 2020

The result of the geophysical investigation carried out to access the cause of road failure and remediation measures along Ilesha-Osogbo expressway, Osun State, South-western Nigeria is presented. The study involved integrating the dipole-dipole technique of electrical resistivity method with the ground penetrating radar (GPR) method. Two dipole-dipole traverses, one long and 20 short GPR profiles were established across the failed section of the road. The dipole-dipole data were interpreted using the Diprowin software to produce the pseudo-section while the GPR data were interpreted using the RadProwin to produce the radargram. The result revealed that the failed road exhibit incompetent layer of resistivity values ranging between 17 Ωm to 171 Ωm lying between two competent layers of resistivity values greater than 200 Ωm. A combination of the dipole-dipole technique and the GPR techniques revealed the depth extend to failure to about 4.5 meters to 5 meters deep which overlie a basement rock of undifferentiated gneiss, a rock that is easily prone to weathering. The water level was observed to occur at shallow depth of about 2 meters and infiltrates the entire weathered layer. The shallow groundwater level coupled with the water-logged clayey layer derived from the weathered materials from basement rock were found responsible for the failure of this section of the road. The study recommends the excavation of the waterlogged clayey layer to a depth of about 5 to 6 meters deep into the subsurface and replacement first with heavy boulders of granitic materials and later overlaid with a thick layer of highly resistive landfill materials such as laterite. The result of the two techniques used in this work have proved to be supportive due to the integration of the double dipole technique with the GPR technique, a relatively new technique recently being introduced into road failure mapping.

Published: April 2020

Jambakan is a hamlet in Bayat District, Central Java Province, Indonesia, which commonly has brackish groundwater. Its unique geological profile leads to variation in groundwater quality that is even found between adjacent wells. This study was designed to identify the quality and hydrochemical type of groundwater and the distribution of brackish groundwater in Jambakan. It employed a quantitative method to analyzethe data collected in the field survey and groundwater quality data (major ions). Meanwhile, the hydrochemical facies of groundwater was interpreted from the plots of major ions on trilinear and quadrilateral Piper diagrams. The results showed that some of the groundwater quality parameters in six wells, namely A6, A34, A38, A65, A67, and A73, had exceeded the standard thresholds. The parameters in question were TDS, EC, salinity, sodium, calcium, chloride, sulfate, magnesium, and hardness. Compared with the six wells, A40 and A45 had better quality. The distribution of brackish groundwater could not be modeled horizontally because salinity highly depends on rock layers where the observed wells are located. Based on the trilinear Piper plots, the groundwater consisted of four hydrochemical facies, namely magnesium bicarbonate, a mixed type, calcium chloride, and sodium chloride. Meanwhile, the quadrilateral Piper diagrams showed the presence of Type I (bicarbonate water), Type II (semi-bicarbonate water), Type III (evaporite water), and Type IVb-IVc (sulfate water) in the groundwater of Jambakan Hamlet.

Favipiravir Tautomerism: A Short Theoretical Report
Authors: Antonov Liudmil
Published: April 2020

There is no experimental data about the tautomerism of Favipiravir (T-705). Therefore its tautomeric state was predicted by using density functional theory in gas phase and in solution (toluene, acetonitrile and water). The solvent effect was described by means of the Polarizable Continuum Model. The results have shown that the enol form is strongly dominating in both gas phase and solution. In order to validate the theoretical predictions, 2-hydroxy pyridine and 2-hydroxy pyrazine were also included in the set of studied compounds. The available experimental data for their tautomerism are in very good agreement with the theoretical predictions, which validate the conclusions made for T-705.
Synthesis of 4-Chloro-1,3-Diazobenzene Bent-Cores Liquid Crystals and Characterizations of Their Mesogenic Behaviors and Photoisomerization Phenomena
Authors: Lu Jinying , Zhang Zelong , Yan Daoren , Zhang Zhiyong , Guan Jintao , Qiao Junfei
Published: April 2020

Azobenzene-based bent-core liquid crystals demonstrate a variety of mesomorphic behaviors and photochromic properties which are desirable for optical switching. Nowadays azobenzene-based bent-core liquid crystal (ABLC) compounds usually exhibit at least one of the following traits which are unfavorable for practical applications: (1) narrow temperature windows of nematic phases, (2) high phase transition temperature, and (3) long period of light stimulation to reach photostationary states. In this study, a series of ABLC compounds 4a–4g were synthesized by adding azo functional groups and chlorine substituent to the central bent-cores to form 4-chloro-1,3-dizaophenylene bent-cores. These ABLC compounds were characterized by i. fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and mass spectrometry (MS) for their structures, ii. differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarized optical microscopy (POM) for their mesogenic properties, and iii. ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis) and POM for their photosensitivity. The experimental results show that all compounds exhibited broad temperature windows of mesogenic phases. In particular, compound 4c showed a broad temperature window of 63.8 °C for nematic phase. Molecular simulations indicate that the molecular dipole moments of compounds 4a–4g are closely associated with the temperatures of Sm – N phase transition and temperature ranges of nematic phases. In addition, simulation results reveal that the terminal alkyl chains exhibit a diphasic effect on the molecular polarity: extending the terminal chain can initially reduce and then increase the molecular dipole moments due to the severe structural disorder of overly extended terminal chain. These findings indicate that the intermolecular forces play a vital role in shaping the mesogenic behavior of ABLCs. Comprehensive characterizations of photochromatic properties show that 4c was highly photosensitive and displayed rapid photoisomerization processes. At room temperature, compound 4c dissolved in ethyl acetate solution can reach photostationary state in 10 seconds. At 95 °C, compound 4c in nematic phase became isotropic liquid under UV-irradiation in 3 seconds due to the forward trans – cis photoisomerization and can be restored to be nematic under natural visible light in 5 seconds because of the backward cis – trans photoisomerization. This study linking the mechanistic details with mesogenic properties provides valuable insights to improve future design of azobenzene bent-core liquid crystals for practical applications especially in photonic applications.

Authors: Manoharan Suhas , Duraisamy Revathi , Devi S Sindhuja , M P Santhosh Kumar
Published: April 2020

Maxillary sinus is the first paranasal sinuses to develop, which is pyramidal in shape and it completes developing around 20 years of age with the eruption of the maxillary third molars. Pneumatization of the maxillary sinus occurs with time. Tooth loss may lead to loss of bone density, atrophy of bone and further pneumatization of the maxillary sinus leading to insufficient quality and quantity of bone for placing implants. Despite lots of literature and research being done, there is no clarity in obtaining consensus regarding the techniques and materials used in maxillary sinus lift procedures. This article reviews the various techniques and bone graft materials used in maxillary sinus lift procedures. The techniques include lateral window approach, hydraulic sinus lift technique, Piezoelectric Surgery technique, Transcrestal Approach, Osteotome Technique, and Balloon elevation technique. It can be concluded that the balloon antral elevation technique and Hydraulic Sinus Lift technique are more efficient techniques for maxillary sinus lift procedures. These techniques are known to result inless perforations, less chair-side time, comparatively easier, and the need for elaborate instrumentation is minimized. It can also markedly increase the success rates of implants in contrast to the conventional techniques which pose greater risks to the patient, more soft tissue trauma, more chair-side time and can expose patients to infections.

O MEIO CONSTRUÍDO E AS CIDADES NA OBRA DE JANE JACOBS
Authors: De Oliveira Edilson Luis
Published: April 2020

Este artigo pretende colocar em evidência a perspectiva teórica, analítica e ética sobre cidades contemporâneas contida na obra de Jane Jacobs. Particularmente no que se refere à relação entre meio construído das cidades e vitalidade urbana, com destaque para os aspectos político e econômico ligados ao meio construído. Para essa tarefa estabelece-se um diálogo com a obra de Jane Jacobs a partir de dois livros: Morte e Vida de Grandes Cidades cuja primeira edição data de 1961, The Economy of Cities publicado em 1969. Outros dois livros figuram no texto como elementos de corroboração de algumas contextualizações sobre a autora: The Systems of Survival de 1992 e seu último livro, Dark Age Ahead de 2005. Pretende-se analisar possíveis contribuições e perspectivas presentes na obra da autora acerca do papel ativo do meio construído das cidades na conformação de alternativas e formas de luta por uma vida com um mínimo de dignidade do ponto de vista material.

Published: April 2020

In this work, we report the synthesis of two new Yb(III)-based coordination polymers [Yb(Btca)(Idc)(H2O)]n (1, HBtca = 1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazole-5-carboxylic acid and H3Idc = 1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid) and [Yb2(Thz)3×8H2O)]×H2O (2, H2Thz = thiazolo×[5,4-d]thiazole-2,5-dicarboxylic acid) prepared under the solvothermal conditions using two heterodonor organic ligands. The two complexes are fully determined via single crystal X-ray diffraction along with the elemental analysis. Furthermore, the synergy effect of compounds 1 and 2 with seventy-flavor pearl pills on the cerebral ischemic events is evaluated in vivo. Firstly, the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is performed to measure the content of dopamine and 5-serotonin in the brain after treatment with compounds 1 and 2. Then, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) detection is conducted to determine the inhibitory effect of the compounds on the inflammatory level in the brain.
Reflections on an interdisciplinary curriculum and pedagogical approaches in a public health course
Authors: Azfar Julian , Tan Rayner Kay Jin
Published: April 2020

I. INTRODUCTION
The notion of interdisciplinary health(care) education is an emerging, though not novel concept (Allen, Penn, & Nora, 2006). The module Social Determinants of Health was introduced in the Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health in 2018. The module covered important foundational concepts in the study of social determinants of health and explored examples of such determinants over 13 weeks. The module adopted an interdisciplinary approach to public health, drawing from biomedical, psychological and sociocultural perspectives informed by both the natural and social science disciplines. Coursework took the form of student-led seminars, opinion editorial (Op-Ed) and reflective essays, and a fieldwork project involving a chosen group in the community. While the adoption of such an interdisciplinary approach, or the use of the chosen pedagogical approaches are not novel, we present our reflections on the implementation of a novel, interdisciplinary course in public health for undergraduates in Singapore who do not have prior knowledge or expertise in the subject area.
Challenges to student transition through a United Kingdom graduate-entry medicine degree programme
Authors: Tso Simon
Published: April 2020

Background: The transition experience of graduate-entry medicine degree programme students is less well understood as compared to those from undergraduate-entry medicine degree programmes.
Aim: This thematic analysis study aimed to explore the transition experience of graduate-entry medicine degree programme students at a United Kingdom medical school.
Methods: Twenty-one student volunteers from the University of Warwick 4-year graduate-entry medicine degree programme took part in this study with fourteen participants attended a further follow-up interview. Audio recordings of their semi-structured interviews were transcribed verbatim and analysed thematically.
Results: Results revealed three key transition periods within the University of Warwick Medical School’s graduate-entry medicine degree programme. Learning, professional identity development and managing coping strategies were the three key challenging issues dominating their transition experience. Medical students encountered a range of challenging issues throughout their medical school journey that could be categorised under three conceptual themes: challenges associated with the curriculum, challenges associated with their social role and generic life challenges.
Conclusions: The findings from this study could be useful to educators and medical schools in enhancing their student support services. It could also be useful to prospective and existing medical students in understanding the realities of undertaking a graduate-entry medicine degree programme.
Eight tips for inclusion of persons with disabilities as standardised patients
Authors: Lim Sok Mui May , Goh Zi An Galvyn , Tan Bhing Leet
Published: April 2020

The use of standardised patients has become integral in the contemporary healthcare and medical education sector, with ongoing discussion on exploring ways to improve existing standardised patient programs. One potentially untapped group in society that may contribute to such programs are persons with disabilities. Persons with disabilities have journeyed through the healthcare system, from injury to post-rehabilitation, and can provide inputs based on their experiences beyond their conditions. This paper draws on our experiences gained from a two-phase experiential learning research project that involved occupational therapy students learning from persons with disabilities. This paper aims to provide eight highly feasible, systematic tips to involve persons with disabilities as standardised patients for assessments and practical lessons. We highlight the importance of considering persons with disabilities when they are in their role of standardised patients as paid co-workers rather than volunteers or patients. This partnership between persons with disabilities and educators should be viewed as a reciprocally beneficial one whereby the university and the disability community learn from one another.

Published: April 2020

Photovoltaic cells are converts about 15% of the solar energy falling into the useful electricity. The increase in the temperature increases the resistance of these cell and in turns decreases the cell efficiency. So, cooling these panels is the effective way of increasing the cell efficiency. The performance of the solar panel increases by reducing the temperature. This cooling is done by air cooling or water cooling on the self-designed modified panel. The solar panels are cooled by passing air with the help of blower.
