Authors: Mahdavi Aida Malek , Tofighi Zahra , Rafraf Maryam , Jafari-Koshki Tohid , Elhami Elham
Published: March 2024

Background:

Considering the significance of relation between dietary diversity and dietary
antioxidants in the mechanism of obesity and related outcomes and due to limited studies in
postmenopausal women, the present research was designed to evaluate the relationship between
Dietary Diversity Score (DDS) and Dietary Total Antioxidant Capacity (DTAC) with some cardio-
metabolic risk factors and Pro-Oxidant-Antioxidant Balance (PAB) level in overweight and/or
obese postmenopausal women.

Methods:

The research participants comprised 128 overweight and/or obese postmenopausal women
aged 45-65 years attending the health centers. Anthropometric measures, e.g., weight, height,
waist and hip circumferences, were obtained. Serum lipid profile, glucose, and insulin were determined,
and the Homeostasis Model Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) was estimated. PAB was determined.
DDS and DTAC were determined using information from the Food Frequency Questionnaire
(FFQ).

Results:

Compared to those in the first tertile, there was no significant relationship between anthropometric
and biochemical data with DDS neither among participants in the second tertile nor the
third tertile (P>0.05). Furthermore, considerable negative relationships were only observed between
waist-to-hip ratio (P=0.035) and waist-to-height ratio (P=0.006) with DTAC among participants
in the second tertile compared with those in the first tertile. Also, insulin and HOMA-IR
were inversely related to DTAC among participants in the second tertile (both P<0.001) and the
third tertile (P=0.004 and P=0.009, respectively) compared to those in the first tertile. There was
a considerable negative relationship between PAB and DTAC (P=0.036) among participants in
the third tertile compared with those in the first tertile.

Conclusion:

DDS was not correlated with a lower risk of obesity, abdominal adiposity, and better
metabolic features. Furthermore, this study demonstrated that higher DTAC was correlated with
lower abdominal obesity, insulin, HOMA-IR, and PAB levels.
Forecasting the Parallel Interaction between Biosurfactants and Neurons: A Challenge for Clinicians
Authors: Rout Soumyashree , Kumar Sahoo Srikanta , Kumar Pradhan Arun
Published: March 2024

Bacteria that are associated with human health are receiving a growing
amount of attention, particularly those that inhabit the body's niches, such as the neural
stem, neurons, gastrointestinal tract, skin, vaginal environment, and lungs.
Biosurfactants are molecules that are both hydrophobic and hydrophilic, and receive
little attention among the secondary metabolites that are released by microorganisms
that are associated with human health. Not only do they serve as biosurfactants, but
they also have the potential to control the microbiota through their antimicrobial
activity and quorum sensing system in the complex human environment. They and the
human body as a whole are shielded from microbial and fungal pathogens by these
functions. Because of their diverse structures, biological functions, low toxicity, higher
biodegradability, and adaptability, biosurfactants are now emerging as promising
bioactive molecules. As a result, biosurfactants with antimicrobial activity, which are
produced by bacteria that are associated with the human body and are related to
everything that humans come into contact with, such as food, beverages, and
comestics, are the subject of this comprehensive review.

Authors: Choudhary Meena , Muduli Monali , Ray Sanak
Published: March 2024

The demand for bio-surfactants is growing daily over synthetic surfactants
due to their less harmful effects on the environment, biodegradability, and nontoxic
effects on public health. Biosurfactants play a significant role in foam generation,
emulsification, oil dispersion, and detergency due to their amphipathic structure with
the hydrophilic and hydrophobic sites. In recent years, tremendous development in
research has resulted in different methods to produce several types of biosurfactants
from microorganisms. Several biosurfactants are grown commercially and applied in
the pharmaceutical and cosmetic sectors, food, petroleum, and agricultural sectors to
mitigate environmental contaminants. The current chapter discusses the potentiality of
biosurfactants to degrade environmental pollutants in various fields.
Biosurfactants: New Insights in Bioengineering and Bioremediation of Crude Oil Contamination
Authors: Payal Beura Pyari , Kumar Raul Sanjay
Published: March 2024

Human activities are the principal source of various kinds of hazardous
substances in our environment, which have serious consequencesfor the well-being of
the environment and people. Using standard means to lessen, degrade, and eliminate
these substances is usually causing harmful effects to environment. Pesticides, crude oil
sludge, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are toxic, mutagenic, and
carcinogenic in nature. It has recently been shown to be possible to use microorganisms
to breakdown and cleanse contaminated soil and water ecosystems, a process known as
bio-reclamation. Biosurfactants, which are amphiphillic chemicals generated by
bacteria, fungus, and yeast, have immense potential to lower the surface tension of a
liquid as well as tension at the interface between 2 liquids or among a liquid and a
solid. Additionally, bio surfactants strongly emulsify hydrophobic substances and
create stable emulsions. Bio emulsifiers and biosurfactants are especially useful in a
wide range of commercial and scientific applications, including pharmaceuticals, better
oil recovery, and pollutant biodegradation. Thus, using biosurfactants to reduce crude
oil pollution is an environmentally responsible strategy to developing a sustainable
ecosystem.

Modified Jade Wind-Barrier Formula (MJWB) for Preventing Common Cold in Elderly with Qi-deficiency Constitution: A Controlled Trial
Authors: Wong Yiu Lin , Zhang Jialing , Zhong Linda LD , Moher David , Bian Zhaoxiang
Published: March 2024

The modified Jade Wind-Barrier formula (MJWB) may prevent the common cold in the elderly with a Qi-deficiency Constitution. Previously, no controlled trial evidence existed to illuminate the concept of “preventive treatment of disease” as outlined in the constitution theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine. This theory distinctly suggests that enhancing the Qi-deficiency Constitution and modulating its functional state can prevent the occurrence of the common cold. This controlled trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT05640570) targeted Hong Kong elderly with Qi-deficiency Constitution with at least one common cold incidence per year. The two co-primary outcomes are the total score of the Qi-deficiency Constitution clinical features and the incidence of the common cold. Throughout the 3-month prevention study, 98 out of 109 (89.9%) participants in the MJWB arm and 100 out of 109 (91.7%) participants in the control arm finished the trial. MJWB significantly improved the clinical features of the Qi-deficiency Constitution compared to that in the control arm (mean difference -2.9, 95% CI -4.5 to -1.3, p < 0.001). It particularly improved the three clinical features: “Easily get tired” (mean difference -0.6, 95% CI -0.8 to -0.3, p < 0.001), “Shortness of breath” (mean difference -0.2, 95% CI -0.4 to -0.1, p = 0.012), and “Lack of energy” (mean difference -0.3, 95% CI -0.5 to -0.0, p = 0.021). MJWB also significantly improved IgG (p < 0.001) compared with the baseline of prevention among the MJWB arm. However, the common cold incidence (odd ratio 0.9, 95% CI 0.5 to 1.6, p = 0.756), the number of persistent days (mean difference 0.1, 95% CI -1.4 to 1.5, p = 0.929), and the total Traditional Chinese Medicine syndrome score (mean difference -7.1, 95% CI -21.6 to 7.4, p = 0.336) showed no difference between the two arms. MJWB can significantly improve the Qi-deficiency Constitution clinical features and the IgG level, suggesting that MJWB may be helpful for participants regarding the related clinical symptoms and their potential consequences. There is no statistically significant difference in the common cold incidence, the duration of its persistence, or the common cold symptom scores when comparing the MJWB users and the non-users. A large-scale trial is worth further investigating the preventive effect of MJWB for the common cold and whether the Qi-deficiency Constitution clinical features and the IgG level improvements can help prevent the common cold in the elderly.

Published: March 2024

Background

Older adults are frequently hospitalized. Family involvement during these hospitalizations is incompletely characterized in the literature.

Objective

This study aimed to better understand how families are involved in the care of hospitalized older adults and develop a conceptual model describing the phenomenon of family involvement in the care of hospitalized older adults.

Methods

We describe the protocol of a qualitative evidence synthesis (QES), a systematic review of qualitative studies. We chose to focus on qualitative studies given the complexity and multifaceted nature of family involvement in care, a type of topic best understood through qualitative inquiry. The protocol describes our process of developing a research question and eligibility criteria for inclusion in our QES based on the SPIDER (Sample, Phenomenon of Interest, Design, Evaluation, and Research type) tool. It describes the development of our search strategy, which was used to search MEDLINE (via Ovid), Embase (via Elsevier), PsycINFO (via Ovid), and CINAHL Complete (via EBSCO). Title and abstract screening and full-text screening will occur sequentially. Purposive sampling may be used depending on the volume of studies identified as eligible for inclusion during our screening process. Descriptive data regarding included individual studies will be extracted and summarized in tables. The results from included studies will be synthesized using qualitative methods and used to develop a conceptual model. The conceptual model will be presented to community members via engagement panels for further refinement.

Results

As of September 2023, we have assembled a multidisciplinary team including physicians, nurses, health services researchers, a librarian, a social worker, and a health economist. We have finalized our search strategy and executed the search, yielding 8862 total citations. We are currently screening titles and abstracts and anticipate that full-text screening, data extraction, quality appraisal, and synthesis will be completed by summer of 2024. Conceptual model development will then take place with community engagement panels. We anticipate submitting our manuscript for publication in the fall of 2024.

Conclusions

This paper describes the protocol for a QES of family involvement in the care of hospitalized older adults. We will use identified themes to create a conceptual model to inform further intervention development and policy change.

Published: March 2024

Cá phèn vây vàng Mulloidichthys vanicolensis (Valenciennes, 1831) phân bố rộng khắp Ấn Độ - Thái Bình Dương và được khai thác phổ biến ở vùng biển Tây Nam Bộ, Việt Nam, nhưng đến nay nghiên cứu về đặc điểm sinh học của loài này còn rất hạn chế. Dựa trên số liệu sinh học nghề cá thu thập tại các cảng cá ở tỉnh Kiên Giang từ 7/2017 đến 12/2019, nghiên cứu đã xác định một số đặc điểm sinh học của loài cá kinh tế này. Kết quả cho thấy cá phèn vây vàng ở vùng biển Tây Nam Bộ sinh trưởng bất đẳng dương (b = 3,2); các tham số tăng trưởng FL¥, K, Ø’ lần lượt là 184,2 mm, 0,95/năm và 4,5. Cá sinh sản lần đầu khi đạt chiều dài FL = 114 mm ở cá đực và 116 mm ở cá cái. Cá cái chiếm ưu thế trong quần thể với tỷ lệ giới tính là 0,6:1 (đực (M)/cái (F)). Cá phèn vây vàng sinh sản rải rác quanh năm, rộ hơn vào thời điểm đầu mùa khô (khoảng tháng 11-12) và đầu mùa mưa (khoảng tháng 5-6). Ngoài ra, nghiên cứu cũng chỉ ra rằng, cá phèn vây vàng đang bị khai thác quá mức với hệ số khai thác cao (E = 0,62).

Viabilidad poblacional del oso andino (Tremarctos ornatus) en un escenario de cacería y pérdida de hábitat
Authors: Maldonado Willy
Published: March 2024

El oso andino es la única especie de oso que habita Sudamérica; su población se reduce principalmente por pérdida de hábitat y cacería debido a la interacción humano-oso andino. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la viabilidad poblacional en el paisaje Madidi Tambopata a través de modelado computacional. Para ésto, se diseñaron varios escenarios: base, fragmentación de hábitat y cacería, y efectos combinados de la fragmentación de hábitat y cacería. Cada escenario se simuló 1,000 veces con proyecciones a 100 años con el software VORTEX 9.6. Se evaluaron: probabilidad de persistencia, tasa de crecimiento y tiempo de extinción. Los resultados señalan que la población del oso andino es viable (PP = 100%) en 100 años de simulación, creciendo en 0.04% anualmente y no hay riesgo de extinción. Sin embargo, la cacería redujo la probabilidad de persistencia a 41%, la tasa de crecimiento disminuyó a -0.03% anualmente. En un paisaje fragmentado, la tasa decrece a -0.04% por efecto de la endogamia y la probabilidad de extinción aparece a los 60 años. Es fundamental establecer estrategias de conservación que apunten al control de la cacería; al mismo tiempo, establecer mecanismo de conservación que aseguren una disponibilidad continua de hábitat adecuado.
Patrones históricos y actuales de diversidad y relaciones biogeográficas de la avifauna residente de los bosques tropicales de México
Authors: Llanes-Quevedo Alexander , Sánchez-Ramos Luis Enrique , Navarro-Sigüenza Adolfo G.
Published: March 2024

Presentamos un análisis de la diversidad y de los patrones biogeográficos de 260 especies de aves residentes de los bosques tropicales de México, realizado a partir de datos históricos (recolectados entre el siglo XVIII y 2007) y registros de presencia de la última década (2013-2023). Realizamos comparaciones del número y cambio de composición de especies, considerando las matrices de distribución “histórica” y “actual”, y un análisis de parsimonia de endemismos. De acuerdo con los datos históricos, la mayor riqueza de especies se localiza en la vertiente del Golfo de México y la península de Yucatán, mientras que los bosques estacionalmente secos de la costa del Pacífico y la Cuenca del Balsas presentaron los valores más altos de especies endémicas. Sin embargo, los datos recopilados en la última década muestran una disminución significativa del número de especies en todas las áreas analizadas. La estimación de la diversidad beta indicó valores elevados de cambio en la composición de especies para las matrices evaluadas. La hipótesis biogeográfica obtenida indica la existencia de 2 grandes grupos: i) vertiente pacífica de México y la Cuenca del Balsas y ii) norte de la provincia Veracruzana, el norte del Istmo de Tehuantepec y la península de Yucatán.
La Audiencia de la Nueva Galicia durante sus primeras etapas. Retrato institucional

La Audiencia de la Nueva Galicia era un tribunal de alzada con amplia jurisdicción para apelar asuntos civiles y criminales. En principio estaba integrada por oidores alcaldes mayores, pero el esfuerzo de la monarquía española por dotar de mayor alcance a las audiencias indianas modificó su carácter de audiencia subordinada, para tener la categoría de audiencia y chancillería. Su traslado a Guadalajara en 1560 la convirtió en la sede indiscutible de la actividad administrativa, judicial, eclesiástica y política del reino. El artículo enlista a los presidentes, oidores y fiscales de la Audiencia de la Nueva Galicia, de 1547 a 1861.

Zbog čega je italofonim govornicima teško usvojiti standardno mjesto naglaska u hrvatskome?
Authors:   University of Zagreb, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Deželjin Vesna
Published: March 2024

Najdugotrajnija i najuočljivija pojava transfera prvoga jezika očituje se u prenošenju glasova pa stranci koji uče hrvatski kao strani ili drugi jezik uglavnom izdvajaju upravo nju. Prilog sažima teškoće i devijacije u izgovoru hrvatskoga koje se očituju kod italofonih govornika koji uče hrvatski u Italiji (Sveučilište "G. D’Annunzio", Chieti-Pescara) i u Zagrebu (kao polaznici Croaticuma – Centra za hrvatski kao drugi i strani jezik na Filozofskome fakultetu Sveučilišta u Zagrebu za vrijeme njihova boravka u okviru Erasmus programa). Rezultati opažanja i istraživanja pokazuju, između ostaloga, da italofoni govornici koji uče hrvatski u Zagrebu percipiraju zagrebački naglasni sustav poznatim i bliskim njihovu materinskome jeziku tako da vrlo česta pojava naglašavanja predzadnjega sloga možda dokazuje moguće interferencije s talijanskim naglasnim sustavom. Primjeri hiperkorektizama u naglašavanju također su vrlo česti.
The development of variability in pausing and articulation rate in Hungarian speakers ten years apart
Authors:   Research Institute for Linguistics, Budapest, Hungary, Huszár Anna ,   Research Institute for Linguistics, Budapest, Hungary, Krepsz Valéria
Published: March 2024

In recent years, attention given to speech-related disciplines has shifted to analyzing extra- and paralinguistic information occurring in speech. Moreover, there is a growing public interest in ageing, which, in turn, may encourage the conduct of this type of research. Earlier studies have analyzed older speakers, and, to date, we have little information about the changes taking place in the voices of healthy, young speakers growing older. Our research examines how certain temporal patterns in speech change in two different types of speech (reading and spontaneous speech) over a period of 10 years. The analysis included speech samples from 13 healthy, young adult male speakers recorded under the same conditions ten years apart. The study focuses on the timing differences within and between the recordings. The development of temporal and pausing patterns were analyzed depending on the type of speech, position, and the time of the recording (10-year difference). The results showed that not only the type of speech but the differences within and between the recordings affected the pausing strategies. In addition, the data indicated that (1) a slower articulation rate was observed in spontaneous speech and (2) higher variability between sample types i.e., a more varied articulation rate was observed in spontaneous speech than in reading. In the case of the articulation rate the individual differences dominated.

Distributions of self-repairs, ratios of self-repairs and errors, as well as self-analysis, provide indirect information on the sensitivity of the speech monitoring system to different types of errors, inadequacies, and hesitations. Recent research indicates that certain procedures have positive effects on speech monitoring as the key factor in promoting speech fluency development. This research involved first-year graduate students of German studies at the University of Split. The aim of this research was to examine the extent to which respondents, using self-assessment, notice speech errors and hesitations in their speech in the first and repeated performance of two speech tasks (dialogue and narration). In addition, the intention was to determine if there were any changes in the self-monitoring behaviour related to different types of tasks and different conditions (first and/or repeated performance). The obtained results indicate that the speakers’ control mechanism in the first performance, in both task types, was directed towards grammatical/lexical accuracy, while in the repeated performance, in both task types, it was predominantly directed towards hesitations. The analysis of retrospective comments confirms that the absolute majority of respondents point out that the attention in the first performance was directed towards grammatical and lexical errors, while in the repeated performance, it was more directed towards incorrect pronunciation and hesitations.

Mendelian genetics are essential for students seeking to comprehend the complexities of inheritance; although fundamental, these biology concepts are difficult for students to understand. This study examined the effectiveness of task-based learning (TBL) in enhancing the students' conceptual understanding of the Patterns of Mendelian Genetics. A pretest and posttest quasi-experimental research design involved an experimental and a control group. An Intrinsic Motivation Inventory questionnaire was utilized to assess the level of intrinsic motivation for task evaluation for the experimental group. Paired t-test was used to compare the pretest and post-test results. Before the intervention, both groups had a low conceptual understanding of the topic. At the end of the intervention, both groups had significantly increased their performances from pretest to posttest scores. The study revealed that TBL is more effective than Traditional Lecture-Based Instruction (TLI), as seen in their enhanced student performance, implying the effectiveness of the TBL as an innovative instructional approach. Participants from the experimental group expressed enjoyment, competence, and ownership of their task activities, and they did not feel nervous and anxious about doing the tasks. Pearson r-correlation was used to establish a relationship among the variables. Perceived choice, pressure/tension, and student performance in the experimental group have low positive correlations, and perceived choice, interest/enjoyment, and performance have a negligible correlation. This approach is highly commendable for biology instruction. By illuminating the effectiveness of active learning in improving student’s conceptual understanding, this study bridges the gap between theoretical-practical gap in genetics via active learning effectiveness.

Objectives This study aims to provide basic data for the construction of safety education contents in geography subject by examining university students' risk perception of radioactivity with an optimism bias through a real case of the Fukushima nuclear power plant accident in Japan.
Methods To this end, a questionnaire composed of questions asking about risk perception of radioactivity and optimism bias in risk perception of radioactivity was distributed and collected to 134 university students in Seoul, South Korea. A one-way ANOVA was conducted to see the difference in risk perception of radioactivity according to the type of visit to Japan (visit to Tokyo, non-visit to Japan, visit to Japan). In addition, factor analysis and multiple regression analysis were performed to identify the optimism bias in the risk perception of radioactivity, and then the difference in optimism bias according to the type of visit to Japan was analyzed through MANOVA (Multivariate Analysis of Variance).
Results The terms of risk perception of radioactivity, the degree of perception that Tokyo is safe from radiation was significantly higher in the Tokyo visiting group than in the other two groups. As a result of factor analysis to identify optimism bias, three factors (optimistic perception, avoidance perception, and wait-and-see perception) were derived, and as a result of multiple regression analysis, it was found that optimistic perception and avoidance perception had a positive effect on optimism bias in order. As a result of MANOVA, the Tokyo visiting group showed significantly higher perceptions of both optimistic and avoidance compared to the other two groups.
Conclusions Optimism bias and its sub-factors, optimistic perception and avoidance perception, were identified in the risk perception of radioactivity. Because optimism bias makes it difficult to make logical judgments and rational decision-making in risk situations, meta-cognition for optimism bias in relation to risk perception should be considered when constructing safety education contents in geography subject.

Published: March 2024

Objectives This study focuses on examining the perception of digital literacy education by analyzing teaching and learning materials related to digital literacy education produced and shared by elementary school teachers.
Methods To this end, we analyzed teaching and learning materials related to digital literacy shared through ‘Indie School’, a representative communication platform for elementary school teachers, and through this, we investigated when, what content, and why they are providing digital literacy education.
Results First, teachers were mainly conducting digital literacy education using creative experiential activity time for upper grades, and the amount of teaching and learning materials showed a rapid increase starting in 2020. This can be said to show that teachers' interest in digital literacy education has increased rapidly since COVID-19, and that they recognize that upper grades are appropriate targets for digital literacy education. Second, it was confirmed that the learning content covered in the teaching and learning materials was concentrated on some content elements of digital literacy, and that some materials were not well differentiated from content elements of related concepts such as news literacy, media literacy, and digital citizenship. This suggests that teachers need a more specialized understanding of digital literacy concepts and characteristics. Third, teachers' digital literacy education objectives were broadly categorized into supporting digital literacy learning activities presented in textbooks, learners' low digital literacy levels, and preventing and resolving problems that appear in digital spaces.
Conclusions Based on these results, this study focused on the need for teachers to have a more professional understanding of the concept of digital literacy, the need for support in various aspects to develop teaching and learning materials related to digital literacy, the need for development and distribution of teaching and learning materials for evaluation purposes and the need for research into appropriate teaching and learning methods.

Published: March 2024

Objectives This study aims to conduct an empirical analysis of the factors influencing medical school professors’ perceptions of nonface-to-face (nonF2F) education method effects and satisfaction with nonF2F faculty development programs.
Methods We conducted a survey of 445 medical school professors who participated in the nonF2F faculty development program from July 2020 to April 2021. For the data analysis, the SPSS 26 program was used to perform reliability, descriptive statistics, correlation, simple, and multiple regression analyses.
Results First, program design, learning management, and communication with instructors were identified as factors that significantly influence medical school professors’ perceptions of the effectiveness of nonF2F education method. Second, the perception of the effect of nonF2F education method had a statistically significant effect on the satisfaction of nonF2F faculty development programs. Considering various factors for the organization or institution-level learning design, management, and instructors, rather than just one aspect of the nonF2F faculty development program, the degree to which medical professors perceive the effectiveness of nonF2F education method increases.
Conclusions Training institutions strive for meticulous program design and learning management, and instructors can study strategies to improve communication skills in nonF2F situations, leading learners to positive perceptions of nonF2F education method and high satisfaction with faculty development programs. This study is significant because it has implications for the effective implementation of nonF2F teaching development programs that prepare for the educational environment in the “untact era” and meet demand.

Published: March 2024

Objectives This research was constructed to find out if individual’s sociocultural attitude toward appearance can be seen as mediating parameter for social support affects body satisfaction.
Methods The research utilized self-response survey focusing on females college students. Responses were gathered from 328 subjects. Applications used consisted of SPSS Statistics 24.0 program and Macro PROCESS v2 for frequency analysis, extracting Cronbach’s α values for descriptive statistics analysis, Pearson’s correlation analysis, and hierarchical regression analysis.
Results First, those who perceive to be subjected to high social support are found to have high body satisfaction. Second, those who perceive to be subjected to high social support are less likely to be influenced by sociocultural attitude toward appearance. Third, those who perceive to be subjected to high social support are less influenced by sociocultural attitude toward appearance and are likely to possess high body satisfaction. Thus one can conclude social support affects body satisfaction with sociocultural attitude toward appearance acting as partial parameters.
Conclusions The implication of the research is the presenting sociocultural attitude toward appearance as a new mediating parameter for social support affecting body satisfaction. Also in attempting to counsel clients in clinical environment, exploration on the level of social support and the level of internalization of sociocultural attitude toward appearance can be helpful. When the client can gain healthy perceptions on body appearances without wholly accepting standards from social expectations and is able to evaluate such values on own terms, stress from internalization of such pressures on appearances can be expected to be alleviated.
