Nigeria bears a large burden of foodborne diseases in Africa, and the second leading causes of premature deaths in Africa is linked to diarrheal diseases. Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157 (EHEC O157:H7) causes an asymptomatic infection to severe diarrhea and/or hemolytic-uremic syndrome in humans which are serious health conditions that calls for serious health concern. The present investigation was done to study the prevalence and antibiotic resistance of Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 strains isolated from raw meat samples. Raw beef samples were collected from abattoirs and retail outlets in three local government areas (LGAs) in Ile- Ife axis namely: Ife North, Ife Central and Ife East for isolation and identification of EHEC O157:H7. Standard microbiological methods were used to isolate and identify EHEC O157:H7 and antibiotics susceptibility pattern was carried out on the isolates to determine their susceptibility or otherwise. EHEC O157 was detected in 16% of meat samples from Abbatoirs slabs and 33% from meat vendors and retailers. EHEC O157 was not detected in one of the beef samples obtained from a particular Abbatoir. The EHEC O157:H7 isolates were found to be most susceptible to meropenem (91.50%) followed by vancomycin (90.80%) and ceftazidime (88.8%). Isolates were found to be most resistant to ampicillin (90.85%), followed by chloramphenicol (86.93%) and cefixime (85.63%). Furthermore, isolates were resistant to a range of more than five antibiotics and three classes of antibiotics, depicting multi drug resistance pattern. Five isolates were resistant to ampicillin, two isolates to streptomycin and three isolates to chloramphenicol. One isolate was resistant to two drugs and another to three drugs. The present study shows a bit higher prevalence of EHEC O157 in beef sold directly at abattoirs. Considering, the high infective dose of this pathogen and the deep-rooted tradition of consuming raw or undercooked beef, the current prevalence should not be considered lightly from a public health perspective.

Low trophic redundancy among temperate wrasse species implies ecosystem risks associated with a multi-species inshore fishery
Authors: Henly L , Stewart JE , Newton J , Trueman C
Published: March 2024

Understanding levels of resource-use overlap or trophic redundancy both within and between species can help predict ecosystem-level impacts of fishery removals and ultimately help define management priorities to preserve ecosystem function. Here, we use stable isotope analysis to investigate inter- and intra-specific variation and overlap in resource use among co-occurring temperate wrasse (Labridae) species. We use the results as a first step to predicting the potential for ecosystem-level impacts of the recently developed multi-species inshore fisheries for live wrasse in England and Scotland. We highlight the likely importance of the primary target species (ballan wrasse), particularly individuals of a landable size, to maintaining the overall function of inshore reef ecosystems, evidenced by the unreciprocated resource use overlap that this species provides for other wrasse species. We also highlight that trophic redundancy is typically low both between and within wrasse species, suggesting that the maintenance of both species diversity and demographic structure of wrasse populations should be a priority when developing fishery management measures. Live wrasse fisheries operate within various marine protected areas (MPAs) across the south coast of England and in Scotland. An overarching aim of ecosystem-based fisheries management, particularly within MPAs, is to support diversity and redundancy within an ecosystem to help maintain resilience to future perturbations. Our study provides some of the first quantitative evidence to support the classification of wrasses (particularly ballan and corkwing) as influential species—defined as having a key role affecting the structure and function of the habitat—within MPAs designated for reef habitats.

Published: March 2024

Morocco is facing the critical challenge of achieving the ambitious targets set by the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and the Green Hydrogen Roadmap whilst not having a clear published informed plan for development of the required new technologies. This gap highlights the necessity for long-term modelling to make these targets achievable in time. To bridge this gap, a comprehensive dataset is presented, leveraging open-source tools, specifically OSeMOSYS, to explore the dynamics of exports and storage in the electricity sector. The dataset presented encompasses a wide range of data from 2015 to 2050, covering aspects such as electricity generation and consumption, imports and exports of electricity and estimated energy potentials. Furthermore, it delves into power technologies costs and performance parameter, renewable energy reserves, compiling information from diverse sources including the Moroccan Ministry of Energy (MEM), the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), and direct communications with the National Office of Electricity and Drinking Water (ONEE). This extensive dataset aims to enhance the availability of critical energy data for policymakers, stakeholders, and researchers.
Tweet Your Heart Out: The Personality Correlates and Affective Consequences of Social Media Use on Close Relationships and Psychological Health
Authors: White Grace
Published: March 2024

Social media is a purported tool to foster and maintain close supportive relationships. However, previous research has established the negative impacts that social media use can have on well-being. The present study explored the connections between mental health and social media use to further address important gaps in understanding the psychological and interpersonal impact it may have. The personality correlates and affective consequences of social media use on close relationship satisfaction and psychological health were examined. Responses from 375 participants on the Big Five Inventory (BFI), UCLA Loneliness Scale, Social Networking Time Use Scale (SONTUS), the Multidimensional Relationship Questionnaire (MRQ), and the Affective Consequences of Social Media Use scale (ACSMU) were analyzed. Results confirmed as social media usage increased, close relationship satisfaction decreased. Findings also indicated a significant positive association between social media use and loneliness. Personality was a significant predictor of self reported levels of social media usage. Less conscientiousness and more neuroticism were indicative of a greater frequency of social media use. Broadly, social media use was significantly associated with negative affective reactions to time spent on social media. Overall, additional research is necessary to explore and replicate the novel findings.
Psychosocial Development: Fathering during Childhood and Adolescence
Authors: Teague Corey M. , Jones Jenaia
Published: March 2024

Findings in this study are based on participate indication of father figure type during childhood and adolescence and the effects of father figure type on psychosocial development. Specifically, the five (5) different father figure types investigated were: (1) positive biological father figure, (2) negative biological father figure, (3) positive non-biological father figure, (4) a combination of a positive non-biological father figure and negative biological father figure, and (5) no father figure. This study was guided by Erik Erikson’s Theory of Psychosocial Development, which explains the importance of mastering different tasks and developing different virtues during specific stages of human development. Specifically, two research questions were investigated: (1) Which psychosocial strengths or weaknesses best predict no father figure during childhood and adolescence? In addition, (2) what is the difference in the psychosocial development of individuals based on father figure type during childhood and adolescence as it relates to research question one? There were 188 adult participates who were administered a pre-questionnaire in order to gather information on father figure type experienced during childhood and adolescence. The participants then were administered the Measures of Psychosocial Development (MPD). Lastly the participants were administered a post-questionnaire pertaining to father figure type (different from the pre- questionnaire) in order to validate the father figure type that was indicated in the prequestionnaire. The results of this study found that the best psychosocial development predictors of no father figure during childhood and adolescence were significant deficits in the psychosocial virtues of hope/faith and willpower and significant deficits in the psychosocial tasks of trust and autonomy. The results of this study also found that participants who indicated that they had a positive biological father during childhood and adolescence scored higher than any other father figure type on the psychosocial virtues of hope/faith and willpower and psychosocial tasks of trust and autonomy. These findings suggest that efforts to make sure children and adolescents have a father figure will be essentially beneficial to children and adolescents as adults. These findings also suggest that situations that deprive children and adolescents of having a father figure can contribute to negative outcomes for these children and adolescents as adults.
Suicide and Violence against Women in Azerbaijan: Risk Factors and Barriers for Seeking Mental Healthcare
Authors: Alonzo Dana , Zubaroglu– Ioannides Pinar
Published: March 2024

Background: Azerbaijan is ranked among the 3 countries with the highest rates of suicide in the Muslim world, and rates are increasing. Violence against women is an equally alarming public health issue in Azerbaijan. A scarcity of data has limited accurate identification of risk factors for suicide and violence against women and barriers to help-seeking. This study aims to address this gap.Method: Thirty (30) in-depth qualitative interviews with women in the community and 4 semi-structured focus groups with key informant groups (mental health providers (psychologists, social workers, psychiatrists), teachers, and survivors of suicide) were held to examine perspectives regarding suicide and violence against women in Azerbaijan. A mixed method was employed using quantitative analysis and thematic content analysis. Thirty (30) of interviews were conducted and 4 of focus groups were held (see table 1).Results: Employed participants were more likely to consider suicide a problem compared to unemployed participants (p=.05); unemployed participants were more likely to view treatment as acceptable compared to employed participants (p=.05). Additionally, older participants were more likely to view both suicide (p=.03) and violence against women (p=.026) as significant problems facing the country. The majority of participants viewed suicide (83%) and violence against women (73%) as problems in Azerbaijan. Nevertheless, 33% reported negative stereotypes regarding suicide and mental healthcare and 50% reported psychological treatment as unaccepted in Azerbaijan.Conclusion: Suicide and violence against women are recognized problems for women in Azerbaijan. Stigma against mental illness is high and the mental healthcare system remains disproportionately institutionalized and under-funded. This highlights the need for building mental health workforce capacity and promoting advocacy efforts addressing policies regarding the allocation of funding for mental healthcare. Key recommendations for such programming are presented.
Interventions Addressing Black/African American Adults Affected by Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs): A Scoping Review
Authors: Ajani Tywan
Published: March 2024

Objective: The aim of this scoping review was to provide an overview of the literature on interventions to mitigate the negative impacts of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) among Black/ African American adults. The specific objectives were to qualitatively examine, compare, and contrast the literature; to provide a narrative summary of each intervention identified in the search; and to identify gaps in the literature.Introduction: ACEs have been identified as a significant public health problem due to their destructive nature on a person's subsequent adult life course. Among the three largest racial/ethnic groups in the United States (White/Caucasian, Black/African American, and Hispanic American), the Black/African American community suffers the highest incidence of ACEs. However, there is a paucity of research examining interventions specifically for Black/African American adults suffering from the negative impacts of ACEs.Inclusion criteria: This study only included published material from the United States within the past ten years. Studies included must have had at least 25% of participants identified as Black/African American adults. The study had to entail an intervention directly applied with the identified population targeting an ACE-related outcome.Methods: The literature search was conducted between December 2022 and January 2023 using the Social Work Abstracts, PsychInfo, Applied Social Sciences Index and Abstracts (ASSIA), and the Social Services Abstracts. Data were extracted on author(s) name, year of publication, the type of intervention, the sample demographics (i.e. age, race, and location), the purpose of the study, the reported outcomes, and the results. Results were summarized in tabular and narrative forms.Results: The search identified 1,146 relevant studies according to the search criteria. Of these, 784 were screened as meeting all or some of the inclusion criteria. The final assessment left 6 studies as fully meeting all the inclusion criteria. Overall, the analysis found that psychosocial and psychoeducation-based interventions positively affected the reduction of ACE-related symptoms. Nevertheless, it is difficult to develop intervention themes as there is tremendous variation in the intervention designs, execution, location, and methods. Additionally, only two of the studies were randomized control trials (RCTs), thus limiting overall methodological rigor.Conclusions: This study highlights the limited evidence of interventions specifically addressing this population. The evidence suggests a positive impact of the interventions on the ACE symptoms identified. However, the rigor of the few existing studies is limited. The Black/African American community will benefit from the development of RCTs on culturally appropriate interventions to combat the damaging effects of adverse childhood experiences.

Published: March 2024

The central government has established the National Energy Policy (KEN) to increase the utilization of renewable energy sources (EBT) by around 23% by 2025 and 31% by 2050. In an effort to support the government's program, researchers have developed a Thermoelectric Generator (TEG) as an alternative power supply to replace the energy source from PT PLN for electrical equipment used in the green bean germination process such as lights, fans, and water pumps. This prototype consists of two chambers: a combustion chamber that generates electrical energy and a control room for the germination process. These two areas are separated to ensure that the control device and germination process are not affected by the heat from combustion. The main components of this prototype include ten TEG units with a maximum power of 5.2 W, a 33 Ah battery, an 8A Buck-boost converter, a 3A Buck converter, a 6W Full Spectrum LED, four DC fans, and a DC pump. The TEG functions effectively as the germination process proceeds smoothly.

Knee joint fractures caused after surgery or other activities that cause knee dysfunction require a rehabilitation process. Knee dysfunction means the knee joint cannot be bent/moved at the desired angle. Because the function of the knee is so important in relation to human activities, it is necessary to immediately carry out rehabilitation measures for a perfect return. Rehabilitation in this case can be done with weight training. In this research, loading for rehabilitation will be designed using load cell-based electronic engineering for the desired load, because the equipment used so far works manually.The research began with inventorying component requirements, designing the circuit, compiling a process algorithm, functional testing, calibration and data collection. The research data is a function of weight on movement, in this case motorbikes. The output of the research is a control circuit prototype to regulate load-based motor movement.The equipment specifications are produced with a loading capacity limit of 5 kg with a change step of 250 grams.

Introduction: Tendinopathy is a degenerative condition resulting from tendons experiencing abnormal levels of multi-scale damage over time, impairing their ability to repair. However, the damage markers associated with the initiation of tendinopathy are poorly understood, as the disease is largely characterized by end-stage clinical phenotypes. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the acute tendon responses to successive fatigue bouts of tendon overload using an in vivo passive ankle dorsiflexion system.

Methods: Sprague Dawley female rats underwent fatigue overloading to their Achilles tendons for 1, 2, or 3 loading bouts, with two days of rest in between each bout. Mechanical, structural, and biological assays were performed on tendon samples to evaluate the innate acute healing response to overload injuries.

Results: Here, we show that fatigue overloading significantly reduces in vivo functional and mechanical properties, with reductions in hysteresis, peak stress, and loading and unloading moduli. Multi-scale structural damage on cellular, fibril, and fiber levels demonstrated accumulated micro-damage that may have induced a reparative response to successive loading bouts. The acute healing response resulted in alterations in matrix turnover and early inflammatory upregulations associated with matrix remodeling and acute responses to injuries.

Discussion: This work demonstrates accumulated damage and acute changes to the tendon healing response caused by successive bouts of in vivo fatigue overloads. These results provide the avenue for future investigations of long-term evaluations of tendon overload in the context of tendinopathy.

To study the relationship between the diversity of the surface microbial community and tobacco flavor, and to improve tobacco quality using microorganisms. The microbial community composition and diversity of 14 samples of flue-cured tobacco from tobacco-producing areas in Yunnan with varying grades were analyzed by high-throughput sequencing. PICRUSt was used for predicting microbial functions. A strain of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens W6-2 with the ability to degrade pectin was screened from the surface of flued-cured tobacco leaves from Yunnan reroasted tobacco leave. The enzyme preparation was prepared through fermentation and then applied for treating flue-cured tobacco. The improvement effect was evaluated by measuring the content of macromolecule and the changes in volatile components, combined with sensory evaluations. The bacterial communities on the surface of flue-cured tobacco exhibited functional diversity, consisting primarily of Variovorax, Pseudomonas, Sphingomonas, Burkholderia, and Bacillus. These bacterial strains played a role in the aging process of flue-cured tobacco leaves by participating in amino acid metabolism and carbohydrate metabolism. These metabolic activity converted complex macromolecules into smaller molecular compounds, ultimately influence the smoking quality and burning characteristics of flue-cured tobacco. The pectinase preparation produced through fermentation using W6-2 has been found to enhance the aroma and sweetness of flue-cured tobacco, leading to improved aroma, reduced impurities, and enhanced smoothness. Additionally, the levels of pectin, cellulose, and hemicellulose decreased, while the levels of water-soluble sugar and reducing sugar increased, and the contents of esters, ketones, and aldehydes increased, and the contents of benzoic acid decreased. The study revealed the correlation between surface microorganisms and volatile components of Yunnan tobacco leaves, and the enzyme produced by the pectin-degrading bacteria W6-2 effectively improved the quality of flue-cured tobacco.

Background: Given the inherent variability in walking speeds encountered in day-to-day activities, understanding the corresponding alterations in ankle biomechanics would provide valuable clinical insights. Therefore, the objective of this study was to examine the influence of different walking speeds on biomechanical parameters, utilizing gait analysis and musculoskeletal modelling.

Methods: Twenty healthy volunteers without any lower limb medical history were included in this study. Treadmill-assisted gait-analysis with walking speeds of 0.8 m/s and 1.1 m/s was performed using the Gait Real-time Analysis Interactive Lab (GRAIL®). Collected kinematic data and ground reaction forces were processed via the AnyBody® modeling system to determine ankle kinetics and muscle forces of the lower leg. Data were statistically analyzed using statistical parametric mapping to reveal both spatiotemporal and magnitude significant differences.

Results: Significant differences were found for both magnitude and spatiotemporal curves between 0.8 m/s and 1.1 m/s for the ankle flexion (p < 0.001), subtalar force (p < 0.001), ankle joint reaction force and muscles forces of the M. gastrocnemius, M. soleus and M. peroneus longus (α = 0.05). No significant spatiotemporal differences were found between 0.8 m/s and 1.1 m/s for the M. tibialis anterior and posterior.

Discussion: A significant impact on ankle joint kinematics and kinetics was observed when comparing walking speeds of 0.8 m/s and 1.1 m/s. The findings of this study underscore the influence of walking speed on the biomechanics of the ankle. Such insights may provide a biomechanical rationale for several therapeutic and preventative strategies for ankle conditions.
