Connected communities | Learning lessons from person-centred community-based support services’ implementation.
Authors: Christian Danielle L. , Berzins Kathryn , Weldon Jo C. , Toma Madalina , Gabbay Mark , Watkins Caroline , Forder Julien
Published: November 2023

Background Person-centred community-based support services (PCCBSS) are an array of non-clinical services provided by organisations such as NHS Trusts, voluntary sector organisations, or local authorities. All PCCBSS involve an individual (variously known as a 'social prescriber’, ‘link worker’, ‘signposter’, ‘navigator’, ‘connector’ or ‘neighbourhood coach’) who talks with a service user before directing them to a range of relevant community sources of social, emotional, and practical support. Despite much recent investment in social prescribing, and its increased prominence within the policy context across England, little is understood about how PCCBSS are implemented. Research is required across different contexts to describe PCCBSS implementation; in particular, how social care providers successfully interact to support the implementation of PCCBSS, and how services responded to circumstances imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Purpose The aim of this post-implementation mixed-methods study is to explore how PCCBSS are implemented and become part of usual working practice. Using three services in North West England as case studies, we will examine factors influencing PCCBSS implementation and establish where there is learning for the wider adult social care system. Focus The study comprises two work packages (WPs): WP1: collecting data by reviewing service documents from three PCCBSS case studies; WP2: interviewing staff and service users (≤20 participants per PCCBSS); Key implementation data will be systematically abstracted (from WPs1&2) into a coding frame; combining contextual determinants from the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) with process-related domains from Normalization Process Theory (NPT). Key outputs The findings from WP1 and WP2 will be presented in the form of an illustrated ‘pen portrait’, developed collaboratively with Applied Research Collaboration North West Coast ARC NWC public advisers, to illustrate how implementation evolved for each of the PCCBSS across key time-points in the process (initiation; operation; maintenance). The findings will also inform an online implementation toolkit providing recommendations for setting up future PCCBSS.
Mobility and strength training with and without protein supplements for pre-frail or frail older adults with low protein intake: the Maximising Mobility and Strength Training (MMoST) feasibility randomised controlled trial protocol
Authors: Biggin Kavita , Marian Ioana R. , Lamb Sarah E. , Morris Alana , Murphy Caoileann , Carver Andrew , Croft Nirvana , Williamson Esther
Published: November 2023

Background Frailty is a common syndrome affecting older people and puts them at risk of hospitalisation, needing care or death. First signs of frailty include reduced muscle strength and mobility decline. A key cause of mobility decline as we age is sarcopenia (age related reduction in muscle strength and mass). Poor nutrition contributes to sarcopenia. A shortfall in protein is associated with reduced muscle mass and strength. This may be due to inadequate intake but also because older people have higher protein needs, especially those with multimorbidity. We need to develop effective treatment to reduce or slow the onset of frailty and mobility decline. Exercise is a recommended treatment. Protein supplements to address the shortfall in protein have the potential to enhance the benefit of regular exercise in frail or pre-frail older adults. This has yet to be definitively demonstrated. Aim To establish the feasibility of conducting an RCT evaluating mobility and strength training with or without protein supplements for people over 60 years old who are frail or pre-frail with a low protein intake. Methods A multicentre, parallel, 2-group, feasibility RCT. Participants (recruitment target = 50) with problems walking, low protein intake and classified as frail or pre-frail will be recruited from four NHS Physiotherapy community services. Participants will be randomised (secure computer-generated: 1:1) to receive 24 weeks of mobility and strength training (delivered in 16 group sessions plus home exercises) or 24 weeks of mobility and strength training with daily protein supplements. Primary feasibility objectives are to estimate 1) ability to screen and recruit eligible participants, 2) intervention fidelity, adherence, and tolerance and 3) retention of participants at follow up. Secondary objectives are to 1) test data collection procedures, 2) assess data completeness and 3) confirm sample size calculation for a definitive RCT.

Published: November 2023

The Muslim population in Malaysia has long followed the practise of paying monetary waqf to mosques. However, no prior research has revealed the characteristics that drive donors to provide cash waqf. As a result, the purpose of this research is to investigate the factors that motivate Muslims in Selangor to pay monetary waqf to mosques. This study is a deductive quantitative survey research in which the conceptual model was developed based on theory and empirical findings. To evaluate data for the research utilising structural equation modelling, 200 sample questionnaires were collected and analysed using AMOS, or Analysis of Moment Structure (SEM). This study discovered that the characteristics attitude, subjective norm, and religion greatly influence the intention of Muslims in Selangor, Malaysia to pay waqf cash to mosques as a result of data analysis. This study should have a theoretical impact by empirically contributing reference information to the body of knowledge in the field of waqf.
Health Implications of Low Vegetables and Local Gin Consumption amongst the Elderly in Ugheli, Delta State, Nigeria
Authors: Okadigwe John Chukwujekwu
Published: November 2023

The study delves into the critical topic of dietary habits and alcohol consumption patterns among the elderly in Ugheli, Delta State, Nigeria. This investigation aims to shed light on the health implications of low vegetable consumption and local gin intake within this aging population. The research addresses the pressing issue of the health and well-being of the elderly in Ugheli, Delta State. Specifically, it focuses on two critical problems: low vegetable consumption and excessive local gin consumption. These issues are of concern due to their potential adverse effects on the health of older adults. Local gin consumption may stem from cultural practices and limited understanding of its health risks. To address these problems, a survey research approach was employed. The sample size included 375 retirees from various communities within Ugheli. This sample size was determined using a stratified non-proportional sampling method. The research findings revealed that low vegetable consumption was associated with health risks such as weight gain, digestive problems, goiter, increased cancer risk, and various chronic conditions. Local gin consumption among the elderly was linked to poor coordination, central nervous system depression, excessive appetite, excessive urination, and low blood glucose levels. This research carries significant implications for the elderly population in Ugheli, Delta State. By highlighting the health risks associated with low vegetable consumption and excessive local gin intake, it underscores the need for tailored interventions, education programs, improved access to fresh produce, and cultural sensitivity in healthcare approaches. Ultimately, this study aims to improve the overall health and quality of life of older adults in the region.

Introduction. It is known that a number of species of the genus Cistus are used in Mediterranean folk medicine in the form of infusions and herbal teas to treat digestive problems and acute respiratory virus infection. Empirical data have accumulated that sage incense extract improves the condition of patients with chronic cholestatic liver diseases (CLDs). Currently, only ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is the generally accepted drug for the treatment of most CLDs.

Aim. Comparative efficacy evaluation of Cistus salviifolius extract (at 2 doses levels) compared to the reference medicine ursodeoxycholic acid Ursosan® (at a therapeutic dose) in intragastric administration to mice in a cholestasis model induced by intragastric administration of alphanaphthylisothiocyanate (ANIT) oil solution during 20 Days.

Materials and methods. The cholestase model was induced by intragastric administration of an alpha-naphthylisothiocyanate oil solution to mice during 20 days. The following biochemical parameters were determined in the serum of experimental animals: alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, total protein, total cholesterol, bilirubin, triglycerides, albumins. Histological analysis was performed on the liver and gallbladder.

Results and discussion. Cistus salviifolius extract at a therapeutic dose of 253 mg/kg and at a dose exceeding the therapeutic dose (506 mg/kg), as well as the reference medicine of Ursodeoxycholic acid Ursosan® at a therapeutic dose of 150 mg/kg reduced the level of aspartate aminotransferase in serum increased after ANIT administration to a level of the control group without pathology. Deviations of other parameters from the control group (alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, total protein, total cholesterol, bilirubin, triglycerides, albumins) were statistically insignificant. Histological analysis of the liver and gallbladder demonstrated that the severity of ballooning degeneration and cholecystitis were significantly reduced in groups which was treated by Cistus salviifolius extract at two doses, but not in the group with reference drug. The severity of cholestasis was poorly influenced by Cistus salviifolius extract in contrast to ursodeoxycholic acid, which was more effective for this pathology.

Conclusion. The conducted study against the background of reports on the effectiveness of the Cistus salviifolius extract in clinical practice allows to recommend its use as a component of combined therapy of a patient with hepatobiliary pathology and as a pharmacoprevention in healthy people in the presence of risk factors.
INFLUENCIA DEL GÉNERO EN EL USO DE REDES SOCIALES VIRTUALES EN ESTUDIANTES UNIVERSITARIOS
Authors: López de Ramos Aura
Published: November 2023

La brecha de género en el uso de las redes sociales virtuales (RRSS) es un tema importante en el mundo digital. Algunos estudios previos han señalado que los hombres tienden a usar más las RRSS que las mujeres, y que también hay diferencias en cómo las utilizan. Este estudio se enfocó en analizar estas diferencias en estudiantes universitarios de Latinoamérica, centrándose en RRSS populares como Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, LinkedIn, TikTok y YouTube. La investigación involucró a 102 estudiantes de una universidad particular en Panamá, con una mayoría de mujeres (relación hombre:mujer de 1:1.68). Los participantes tenían edades variadas, y la mayoría residía en la Provincia de Panamá. Los resultados mostraron que las mujeres utilizan las RRSS con mayor frecuencia que los hombres, pero los hombres tienden a pasar más tiempo en ellas. Además, no hubo diferencias notables entre géneros en términos de preferencia por dispositivos tecnológicos o RRSS específicas. La mayoría de los estudiantes usaban WhatsApp para la mensajería instantánea. En cuanto a las actividades en RRSS, se observó que los hombres tendían a utilizarlas menos para obtener información o mantenerse informados en comparación con las mujeres. Sin embargo, las mujeres mostraron una tendencia ligeramente menor a utilizar las RRSS para actividades relacionadas con sus estudios.

Published: November 2023

El análisis de Nakamura es una técnica crucial en la evaluación de la respuesta sísmica del suelo durante un terremoto y ha ganado importancia en los últimos 30 años debido a sus ventajas en la ingeniería geotécnica sísmica y la caracterización de sitios. Sin embargo, se ha debatido la influencia de la energía generada durante las mediciones en la precisión de los resultados, ya que esta energía puede afectar las propiedades del suelo sin una medida precisa de su magnitud y duración.Este estudio se propuso analizar la correlación entre la energía generada durante la prueba de penetración estándar (SPT) y los resultados del análisis de Nakamura cuando no se introduce energía artificial deliberadamente. La metodología estándar para la aplicación de HVSR (H/V Spectral Ratio) implica evitar la introducción de fuerzas externas al suelo para no sesgar la respuesta del sitio.Se recopilaron datos de aceleraciones de 9 sitios en la ciudad de David durante más de 1500 minutos, mientras se realizaban pruebas SPT con diferentes configuraciones de acelerómetros triaxiales. Se realizó un análisis espectral de las señales registradas para identificar la presencia o ausencia de energía artificial, destacando picos de frecuencia que indicaran el impacto del martillo.Los resultados mostraron que en el análisis de Nakamura sin energía externa y con energía, se observó una gran similitud en las frecuencias identificadas, lo que sugiere que la presencia de ruido ambiental o energía inducida es insignificante para un análisis positivo de esta técnica.

Published: November 2023

O presente estudo tem por objetivo descrever o perfil bacteriológico de secreção traqueal em pacientes de UTI’s, os mecanismos de resistência bacteriana e o controle dessas bacteremias. Trata-se de uma revisão narrativa da literatura. Tendo por característica ser um estudo exploratório e descritivo. Para qual foi empregada buscas nas bibliográficas internacionais e nacionais. As buscas foram realizadas entre os meses de julho a outubro de 2023 nas seguintes bases de dados: Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS), Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MedLINE) e Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO). as bacteremias que podem ocorrer no trato respiratório e em outros sistemas, apresentam alto índice de nocividade, devido à variedade dos potenciais mecanismos de resistência, as bactérias multirresistentes ou superbactérias acabam causando muitos danos, principalmente às pessoas internadas em unidades de terapia intensiva, além de acarretar prejuízos econômicos, tendo em vista o elevado valor do tratamento e tempo de internação. Sabendo que a resistência induzida é um dos principais mecanismos de resistência, é de suma importância manter um padrão rigoroso de uso racional de antibióticos no âmbito domiciliar e hospitalar, para reduzir os casos de resistência, e, o controle da disseminação das infecções, através da educação das equipes de assistência, incentivo e conscientização da importância da higienização das mãos.

Published: November 2023

Infecções do trato urinário são comuns na gestação, podendo acarretar desfechos negativos, como pré-eclâmpsia, prematuridade e baixo peso ao nascer. Assim, profissionais da saúde devem diagnosticá-las e propor tratamento antimicrobiano adequado. O objetivo deste artigo é abordar informações recentes sobre infecções do trato urinário na gestação, com ênfase na melhor terapia antimicrobiana para cada caso. Para isso, foi feita revisão de artigos dos últimos cinco anos, nas plataformas SciELO e PubMed, disponíveis em inglês ou português. Dos 27 estudos encontrados, foram excluídos aqueles que abordavam temáticas distintas da tratada nesta pesquisa. Com isso, selecionaram-se 10 artigos.  Além disso, foram incluídos documentos norteadores de referência sobre o tema, como protocolos e diretrizes nacionais e internacionais. A partir deles, percebeu-se que, na gestação, é essencial rastrear a bacteriúria assintomática, por meio da urocultura. O diagnóstico de cistite e pielonefrite é clínico, por meio de anamnese e exame físico. Nesses casos, deve-se realizar urocultura para identificação do agente causador, especialmente importante caso evidenciem-se bactérias resistentes. Quanto ao tratamento, há informações distintas nos artigos pesquisados. Contudo, a maioria dos textos considerou nitrofurantoína, cefalosporinas, fosfomicina e amoxicilina como opções adequadas e seguras para o tratamento de bacteriúria assintomática ou cistite, com tempo de terapia dependente do antimicrobiano escolhido. Para os quadros de pielonefrite, explicitou-se a importância da internação da gestante, sendo as cefalosporinas selecionadas como terapia inicial. Em suma, observaram-se informações divergentes acerca da escolha antimicrobiana e do tempo de tratamento recomendado para as infecções do trato urinário na gestação. Assim, demandam-se mais pesquisas para divulgar informações mais precisas, aprimorar o tratamento e evitar a seleção bacteriana.

Published: November 2023

A coloração histológica é uma técnica indispensável para o estudo celular e tecidual de órgãos, que possibilita identificar componentes estruturais com auxílio de corantes. Algumas técnicas de coloração têm ganhado domínio na rotina laboratorial, embora muitos corantes sintéticos empregados contém alta toxicidade, que leva à crescente busca por corantes histológicos naturais alternativos. Neste sentido, o objetivo deste trabalho é a avaliação do potencial de coloração de pigmentos obtidos de nove espécies vegetais derivadas e remanescentes da Mata Atlântica em secções de tecido animal e vegetal. Os resultados apontaram que seis extratos promoveram coloração de componentes teciduais do intestino, coração, encéfalo e pele de ratos. Fibras colágenas foram evidenciadas por Croton floribundus, Croton urucurana, Ocotea odorífera, Xylopia brasiliensis, e mucopolissacarídeos por Croton floribundus e Croton urucurana. Estruturas vasculares e parede celular em secções de tecido vegetal foram destacadas nas colorações por Solidago microglossa. E por fim provou-se o possível potencial de algumas espécies derivadas da Mata Atlântica e podem conter valor tintorial importante e contribuírem para o desenvolvimento de meios alternativos de coloração histológica.

Published: November 2023

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o cumprimento das legislações vigentes de rotulagem de alimentos em embalagens de méis comercializados em diferentes estabelecimentos e municípios dos estados do RJ e do RS, nos períodos de 2021 a 2022. Para isso foram adquiridas 55 amostras de embalagens de méis, de oito cidades do RJ e quatro do estado do RS. Após as amostras foram distribuídas em três Grupos (RJ, RS e Global), em seguida organizou-se um quadro com cinco classes (origem do produto, segurança sanitária, informações sobre atendimento ao consumidor, cuidados à saúde e informações nutricionais), elaborado conforme as legislações vigentes a respeito de rotulagem de alimentos, dessa forma avaliou-se qualitativamente as informações presentes nos rótulos. Observou-se que dentro dos grupos analisados encontrou-se amostras de rótulos de embalagens de méis fora dos padrões especificados pelas legislações vigentes, bem como embalagens sem rotulagem. Talvez seja em função de que há uma série de leis, instruções normativas, decretos, resoluções, que se complementam, mas que pode acarretar em equívocos por parte dos produtores de méis, além de existir uma ineficácia na fiscalização a respeito da comercialização de mel dentro destas regiões do país. Neste sentido, conclui-se que existe descumprimento da legislação a respeito da rotulagem de méis, seja por rótulos com informações insuficientes ou até mesmo pela comercialização de alimentos sem rotulagem, oferecendo risco à saúde do consumidor.

Published: November 2023

O estresse é um grande causador da imunossupressão, levando ao aumento da ocorrência de doenças infecciosas, manifestação de doenças autoimunes o desenvolvimento e progressão de neoplasias. A principal causa é o aumento da secreção de noradrenalina e glicocorticoides na corrente sanguínea. Com o estresse constante o corpo passa a produzir esses hormônios em grande escala, fazendo com que o próprio organismo relaxe as suas defesas, sendo estes os causadores das alterações ocorridas no sistema imune, sistemas cardiovascular, gastrointestinal e no metabolismo. O estresse pode tomar diferentes formas e contribuir para sintomas de doenças, os mais comuns incluem cefaleia, insônia, dificuldade de concentração, temperamento explosivo, estômago perturbado, insatisfação no trabalho, depressão e ansiedade. Este artigo tem por objetivo demonstrar como o estresse é um grande problema relacionado ao sistema imune, e como isso interfere diretamente na saúde, acarretando novas patologias ou a piora de outras já existentes. Os dados foram obtidos por meio de revisão narrativa bibliográfica de artigos relacionados ao tema, no buscador: Google Acadêmico. Durante a busca foram encontrados 58 artigos para análise, dos quais foram selecionados 22 para a construção do trabalho, por estarem dentro dos critérios de inclusão. A revisão demonstrou que o estresse causa no sistema imunológico um impacto negativo, que pode levar ao aparecimento de doenças. Diante de situações de estresse o organismo passa por diferentes alterações, é importante o entendimento da função do estresse no organismo e a concepção para uma vida mais tranquila, com atividades que ajude seu controle, reduzindo o fator de risco.
COVID-19 among infants: key clinical features and remaining controversies
Authors: Cimolai Nevio
Published: November 2023

Infants aged <1 year represent a seemingly more susceptible pediatric subset for infections. Despite this, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection has not been proven as more serious in this age group (outside the very early neonatal period) than in others. Indeed, a considerable number of asymptomatic infections have been recorded, and the symptoms and morbidity associated with COVID- 19 differ minimally from those of other respiratory viral infections. Whether due to an abundance of caution or truly reduced susceptibility, infections in infants have not raised the same profile as those in other age groups. In addition to direct severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 diagnostic tests, laboratory markers that differentiate COVID-19 from other viral infections lack specificity in infants. Gastrointestinal presentations are common, and the neurological complications of infection mirror those of other respiratory viral infections. There have been relatively few reports of infant deaths. Under appropriate precautions, breastfeeding in the context of maternal infections has been associated with tangible but infrequent complications. Vaccination during pregnancy provides protection against infection in infants, at least in the early months of life. Multi-inflammatory syndrome in children and multi-inflammatory syndrome in neonates are commonly cited as variants of COVID-19; however, their clinical definitions remain controversial. Similarly, reliable definitions of long COVID in the infant group are controversial. This narrative review examines the key clinical and laboratory features of COVID-19 in infants and identifies several areas of science awaiting further clarification.

Filipino ESL Learners’ Academic Efficacy, Thoughts and Achievements in the Blended Learning Modality
Authors: Kabigting Ryan
Published: November 2023

This concurrent embedded strategy of mixed methods design described the ESL learners’ academic efficacy, thoughts and experience and achievement in the BL delivery modality. Fifty learners were purposively selected based on the set criteria. To determine the learners’ academic efficacy, the adapted survey questionnaire for academic self-efficacy scale (ASES) for junior high school learners developed by Mr. Angelo Reyes Dullas of Central Luzon State University (CLSU), Philippines was used, while a semi-structured questionnaire prompted the participants to describe their experiences during the blended learning modality. The collected quantitative data were analyzed and interpreted using the mean, frequency counts, and Pearson r while coding and theming for the qualitative data. The study found that the participants' mean grades were very satisfactory and outstanding during the first and second quarters, respectively. A calculated r-value of 0.78, strongly positively correlated, indicates that the learners’ academic efficacy goes with their performance. This means that the high the academic efficacy, the better the performance in English. The researcher has drawn at least five major themes based on the learners’ narrations. These are the self-directed learning is the new trend, internet connection at loss during OL, academic motivation makes learners go on, web-based educational sites as the source of information, and the student-teacher collaborative learning. This strengthens that BL is an opportunity for learners to learn amid the country’s health crisis.
Fiume és a magyar tengerészeti egészségügy – történelmi háttérrel
Authors: Balázs Péter
Published: November 2023

Fiume mint a Magyar Királyság adriai tengeri kikötője az 1700-as évek utolsó harmadától indult rohamos fejlődésnek. Corpus separatumként, tehát nem a Horvát Királyság területéből vált a Magyar Királyság részévé 1779-ben. Ezért rendelkezett külön a városról és a körülötte fekvő területekről a Trianoni békeszerződés III. résznek V. címe. A Habsburg Birodalomnak és benne Magyarországnak, a törökök elleni győztes háborúk után, a 18. század első évtizedei nyitottak lehetőséget arra, hogy részesedjen a jól jövedelmező földközi-tengeri kereskedelemből. Ennek azonban abszolút feltétele volt a keleti mediterrán kikötőkből támadó pestisjárványok megelőzése, illetve megfékezése. Ez a tevékenység szinte azonos volt a tengerészeti közegészségüggyel, amelynek szigorú hatósági szabályozása 1755 és 1769 között történt. A Habsburg-jogalkotás sikeresen egyesítette a több évszázados mediterrán szokásrendet a fegyelmezett osztrák bürokráciával. Száz év után, az 1851–52-ben Párizsban ülésező első nemzetközi közegészségügyi konferencia csak enyhíteni igyekezett a szabályokon, de az alapelveket változatlanul hagyta. Magyarországon ezek a szabályok kétszeresen is feledésbe merültek. Először a modern mikrobiológia tudományos alapon helyezte a történelem lomtárába a tisztán tapasztalati szabályokat. Másodszor a 20. században Fiume elvesztése, majd a magyar tengerhajózás kihalása törölte a tengerészeti egészségügyet közös emlékezetünkből. Ennek ellenére mégis hasznos átnézni a régi dokumentumokat, mert újabban, a járványok „ legyőzésének” eufóriája után, értékes üzeneteket küldenek egy valószínűleg soha véget nem érő küzdelemről a makro- és mikrobiológia világa között.

A dyslipidaemia kulcsszerepet játszik számos cardiovascularis megbetegedés patomechanizmusában. Számos betegnél nem a lipoprotein-anyagcsere primer zavaráról van szó, hanem a dyslipidaemiát valamely „nem lipid” ok magyarázza. Ezen szekunder dyslipidaemiák meglepően gyakoriak, a hátterükben álló eltérések gyakran nem kerülnek felismerésre, hacsak nem keressük őket aktívan. Az endokrin megbetegedések gyakran társulnak dyslipidaemiával, ide sorolható a hypothyreosis, a diabetes mellitus, a Cushing-szindróma, az acromegalia, a hypogonadismus, a növekedésihormon-deficientia, a hyperprolactinaemia és a polycystás ovarium szindróma. A diagnózis felállítása fontos, hiszen a lipideltérések az esetek jelentős részében jól reagálnak az alapbetegség kezelésére. Ezért az endokrin kórképek felismerése a dyslipidaemiás betegek esetén alapvető lépés a rutinkivizsgálás során a hatékony kezelés és a cardiovascularis megbetegedések megelőzése szempontjából.

Type 1 Diabetes: A Disorder of the Exocrine and Endocrine Pancreas
Authors: Bruggeman Brittany S. , Schatz Desmond A.
Published: November 2023

Type 1 diabetes has historically been described as an endocrine (β-cell) specific autoimmune disease. However, a substantial reduction (20-50%) in pancreas organ size and subclinical to symptomatic exocrine pancreatic insufficiency are present at diagnosis and may begin even prior to the development of islet autoimmunity. The mechanisms of exocrine loss in type 1 diabetes are not well understood, but leading hypotheses include developmental defects, β-cell loss resulting in exocrine atrophy, or autoimmune or inflammatory destruction of exocrine cells. Inflammatory changes including acute and chronic pancreatitis, exocrine T cell infiltration and classical complement activation, and serum exocrine autoantibodies within type 1 diabetes individuals suggest that an autoimmune or inflammatory process may contribute to exocrine pancreatic dysfunction. Exocrine pancreas atrophy primarily occurs prior to the onset of clinical disease. Indeed, recent work implicates exocrine-specific alterations in gene and protein expression as key in type 1 diabetes development. Measures of exocrine size and function could be useful additions in the prediction of disease onset and in identifying potential therapeutic responders to disease therapies, however, this is an underdeveloped area of research. Additionally, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency is underdiagnosed in individuals with type 1 diabetes and individualized treatment protocols are lacking. Much work remains to be done in this area, but we can definitively say that type 1 diabetes is a disorder of both the exocrine and endocrine pancreas likely from the start.
Does the Voice Matter? Impact of Voice-Over Instructions on Task Acquisition and Prompting Levels in Video Prompting

Introduction: Opportunities are increasing for individuals with disabilities to live independently. Video prompting is important to increasing independence through observation and imitation of specific behaviors or skills. However, the impact of voice-over instructions has yet to be studied.
Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of voice-over instructions on teaching daily living skills to three individuals with disabilities via video prompting.
Method: A single-subject adapted alternating treatment design was used. Two versions of each intervention video were created by the researchers and alternated: one without and one with step-by-step voice-over instructions. Four skills were selected: (a) making a bowl of oatmeal, (b) microwaving popcorn, (c) starting a load of laundry, and (d) cleaning the microwave. Data were also collected on the number of prompts to use technology and the number of views for each step.
Results: Results showed that the presence of voice-over instructions led to higher levels of task acquisition for all the participants. The number of prompts to use technology decreased for two of the individuals after exposure to both instruction types. The number of views did not appear to be related to the presence of voice-over instructions.
Conclusion: Video prompting, with or without voice-over instructions, is an effective way to teach daily living skills and promote independence to individuals with intellectual disabilities.

Permasalahan di lapangan menunjukan bahwa strategi pengembangan dan penataan kawasan pariwisata yang dilakukan oleh Pemerintah Daerah Kabupaten Pangandaran masih belum efektif. Hal tersebut di tunjukan melalui penataan wisata yang dilakukan lebih khususnya destinasi paling favorit wisatawan. Yang mana para pedagang kaki lima yang kini ada di zona inti telah dipindahkan ke bagian belakang, namun karena pemindahan pedagang tidak mengikuti jalur lintas wisatawan, maka interaksi para pedagang dengan wisatawan sulit terjadi. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif dengan pendekatan kaulitatif, dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui studi pustaka dan studi lapangan yang mencakup wawancara, observasi dan dokumentasi dengan para informan baik dari internal Dinas Pariwisata dan Kebudayaan, pihak pengelolah tempat wisata, pengunjung tempat wisata, tokoh masyarakat, serta serta masyarakat yang ada di Kabupaten Panngandaran. Teknik analisis data dilakukan melalui pengumpulan data, penyajian data dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa strategi Dinas Pariwisata dan Kabudayaan dalam pengelolaan wisata di Kabupaten Pangandaran tahun 2020-2021 masih belum efektif, hal ini dapat dilihat dari tiga dimensi berikut; (1) Strategi yang diterapkan oleh Dinas Pariwisata dan Kebudayaan dalam pengelolaan wisata di Kabupaten Pangandaran tahun 2020-2021 belum memenuhi indikator pertama yakni perumusan strategi.

As the demand for dog food production continues to rise, along with the number of dogs per household in the US, sustainable ingredients must be considered for the pet food industry. Consumers have a negative perspective when it comes to animal by-products in their pet’s food. However, animal by-products contribute a quality source of dietary protein, vitamins, and minerals which contribute to nutritionally complete pet foods. Along with being nutritionally complete, foods must also appeal to the dog while eating. The objective of this study was to produce formulas utilizing four different chicken protein sources, and to evaluate the effects of those protein sources on palatability in dogs. Five treatments were produced, through extrusion, using fresh mechanically deboned chicken at two different inclusion levels: (FMDC14 and FMDC25), dried chicken (DC), chicken meal (CM), and chicken by-product meal (CBPM). Four trained panels of twenty-five adult dogs, made up of majority Beagles, randomly divided by sex, were used for palatability testing using the two-bowl test. Based on the palatability results from this study, the CBPM treatment was preferred (p<0.05) over the FMDC14, FMDC25, and DC treatments. The CBPM treatment was at parity to the CM treatment (p>0.05). It can be concluded that the CBPM treatment was considered palatable to the dogs.
Cluster analysis for localisation-based data sets: dos and don’ts when quantifying protein aggregates

Many proteins display a non-random distribution on the cell surface. From dimers to nanoscale clusters to large, micron-scale aggregations, these distributions regulate protein-protein interactions and signalling. Although these distributions show organisation on length-scales below the resolution limit of conventional optical microscopy, single molecule localisation microscopy (SMLM) can map molecule locations with nanometre precision. The data from SMLM is not a conventional pixelated image and instead takes the form of a point-pattern—a list of the x, y coordinates of the localised molecules. To extract the biological insights that researchers require cluster analysis is often performed on these data sets, quantifying such parameters as the size of clusters, the percentage of monomers and so on. Here, we provide some guidance on how SMLM clustering should best be performed.
