Acute beetroot supplementation may improve blood pressure but not exercise economy in female masters swimmers
Authors: Eastman Alyssa Q. , Sloop Owen , Gokhale Rohit A. , Ferguson-Stegall Lisa M.
Published: September 2023

It is known that beetroot supplements may improve exercise economy and blood pressure, but this has mainly been studied in males. Given that older female athletes are underrepresented in the literature, we aimed to determine if acute beetroot supplementation (BRS) improves exercise economy and blood pressure in masters female athletes (swimmers) during a treadmill exercise test. Methods: 11 participants (57.8±10.5 y) underwent 2 randomized, double-blinded trials, ingesting beetroot (BE) or placebo (PL). Salivary NO2-   (sNO2-) and blood pressure (BP) were measured pre-ingestion (Base), pre-exercise (Pre), and 5 min post-exercise (Post). Oxygen consumption (VO2) was measured during the modified Balke test until HR reached 85% of age-predicted maximum. Exercise economy (ExEc) was defined as the average relative VO2 during min 3-4.5 of the test. sNO2- was determined using NO2- detection strips. Results: sNO2- increased from Base to Post in BE vs PL (32.5±7.0 vs 2.7±3.9% change, p=0.001). No treatment differences existed for ExEc (BE: 15.51±0.47 vs PL: 15.71±0.53 ml·kg-1·min-1, p=0.48). Diastolic BP was significantly lower in BE vs PL (Base: 74.6±1.7 vs 73.2±2.3, Pre: 73.6±1.8 vs 74.5±2.1, Post: 74.5±1.7 vs 76.1±2.2 mmHg, p=0.03, treatment by time). Conclusion: Acute BRS lowered diastolic BP, but did not improve exercise economy in these trained, normotensive athletes. Further research is warranted in menopausal and post-menopausal females, including those who are hypertensive, and in other female masters athlete groups.

Authors: Borges Georg
Published: September 2023

In diesem Beitrag wird der Begriff der Gesundheitsdaten i.S. der DSGVO und der vorgeschlagenen Verordnung zum europäischen Gesundheitsdatenraum kritisch untersucht und es werden Lösungsvorschläge de lege lata wie de lege ferenda unterbreitet. Gesundheitsdaten sind besonders schützenswerte Informationen über den Einzelnen – und zugleich ein besonders wichtiges Gemeinschaftsgut (sogleich I). Der Begriff der Gesundheitsdaten i.S. der DSGVO ist heillos umstritten und unklar (unten II), das Regelungskonzept des Art. 9 DSGVO insgesamt fragwürdig (unten III).

CXCL13 Serum Level as a Potential Biomarker in Vitiligo Patients: Correlation with Disease Activity and Severity
Authors: Ashraf Yasmine , Ali Ismail Nader , Omar Hanan , Nada Hesham
Published: September 2023

Background: Vitiligo is a prevalent autoimmune pigmentary skin disorder, with 0.5 - 2% of the global population prevalence. Human follicular T helper cells, dendritic follicular cells, and mesenchymal lymphoid tissue organizer cells all generate the B-cell chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 13 (CXCL13). Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 13 and its receptor CXCR5 have been linked to the etiopathogenesis of various autoimmune and inflammatory diseases in the latest studies. Objectives: This study aimed to assess the serum CXCL13 level in vitiligo patients and its relation to the activity and severity of the disease. Methods: This case-control study involved 21 vitiligo patients and 21 age and gender-matched healthy controls. Full history taking, clinical evaluation, and assessment of the disease activity and severity were performed for all the patients. The CXCL13 serum levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: The serum CXCL13 levels were significantly higher in vitiligo patients than in healthy controls (227.35 ± 125.70 and 130.58 ± 26.52 ng/L, respectively; P = 0.002). There was a significant relationship between CXCL13 and the clinical pattern of activity among patients with vitiligo; however, there was no correlation with disease activity or severity index scores. Conclusions: Although CXCL13 was greater in vitiligo patients than in healthy controls, it was unrelated to the activity or severity of the illness. This finding suggests that CXCL13 might have a role in the immunological pathogenesis of vitiligo.

Authors: Alipour-Anbarani Mansoureh , Ghaffari Mohtasham , Montazeri Ali , Kavousi Amir , Ramezankhani Ali
Published: September 2023

Background: Despite many studies on children’s physical literacy, less attention has been paid to adolescents’ physical literacy. Objectives: The objective of this study was to develop and assess the psychometric features of a questionnaire for measuring physical literacy in 16 - 18-year-old Iranian adolescents. Methods: This study was conducted in Tehran and employed a two-step mixed method. In the first part, the concept of adolescents’ physical literacy was identified using a content analysis approach. At this stage, 15 specialists and eleven 16 - 18-year-old adolescents were selected by the convenient sampling method. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews. In the Second part of the study, in order to describe the psychometric properties of the tool, its validity, reliability (internal consistency and test-retest), and factor analysis were assessed. Results: In the first stage, the analysis of the data obtained from the interviews emerged a definition for the concept of adolescents’ physical literacy as a set of skills to acquire, comprehend, and assess information and self-care skills to make the right decision and promote physical activities. In the second step, according to the qualitative analysis of the opinions of specialists and adolescents, as well as the review of the existing literature, the initial questionnaire was developed consisting of 62 questions in the dimension of physical literacy, which was subsequently abridged to 40 questions as some questions were omitted due to conceptual similarities. After the content was validated and the recommended corrections were made, the tool’s questions were further reduced to 34 items. In exploratory factor analysis, these 34 items were loaded into 5 factors, which, in total, represented 61.60% of the observed changes. However, based on the research team’s decision, the items of Factor 5 were transferred to Factor 2 due to conceptual similarities. Finally, a 34-item questionnaire with 4 factors was developed. The reliability of the tool was approved by α = 0.93, and the test-retest method with two-week intervals indicated appropriate reliability for the questionnaire (ICC = 0.97). Conclusions: The adolescents’ physical literacy questionnaire with 34 items and 4 dimensions was approved as a valid and reliable tool to measure adolescents’ physical literacy.

Estimation of the stiffness tensor from Lamb wave velocity profiles measured on steel with different texture
Authors:   TNO Science & Industry, Volker Arno ,   TNO Science & Industry, Duijster Arno ,   Tata Steel, Van Den Berg Frenk ,   Tata Steel, Celado-Casero Carola ,   National Center for Metallurgical Research (CENIM-CSIC), Melzer Stefan
Published: September 2023

It is important that steel meets the designated material parameters after production. Ideally, relevant parameters should be measured inline to have the ability to control the process during production. This requires a method that determines material parameters, such as the texture and various stiffness matrix components. These material properties can be derived from ultrasonic Lamb wave velocity measurements for different angles relative to the rolling direction.

Objectives

A method for estimating relevant stiffness matrix components needs to be developed, tested on simulation results and applied on measurements.

Work performed

A set of 10 cold-rolled Interstitial Free (IF) steel samples is provided by Tata Steel. These samples have different microstructures and thus different elastic properties. The ultrasonic Lamb wave velocity is measured for each of those samples over 360°. For each sample, a digital representative volume element (RVE) is generated using periodic Voronoi diagrams with a very large number of grains (10,000 – 100,000), based on through-thickness microstructural characterization by Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD). The set of 10 RVEs is used in 3D Finite Difference simulations where grains are included individually and modelled as single crystals with specific orientations. The wave propagation of the S0 and SH0 modes is simulated. An inversion scheme has been developed to estimate a large number of components of the stiffness matrix from a velocity profile.

Results

Velocity profiles obtained from simulations are compared with those from measurements. For each sample, the results are very similar. The inversion scheme has been tested on simulations and applied to measurements from the IF samples. Results indicate that an acceptable accuracy can be achieved, although not all components are resolved equally well in the measurements.

Conclusions

The proposed inversion scheme enables the estimation of all relevant stiffness tensor components from a Lamb wave velocity profile with sufficient accuracy.

The normativity question in Quine’s naturalism: The context of the language learning situation
Authors: Mate Shonkholen ,   Bulgarian Academy of Sciences
Published: September 2023

Quine has been charged with eliminating the normative dimension from his naturalized epistemology. The aim of the paper is to look at the role of empathy in Quine’s language learning situation, which in its simplest form is constituted by the parent-child relation. We will explore the normativity of the role of empathy thereof by exploiting the sociality of the language learning situation. Since the sociality of Quine’s notion of empathy is implicit, to explore the normativity expression thereof, we will examine the explicit sociality of Wittgenstein’s language learning situation–also constituted in its simplest form by the master-novice relation–and the normative character of it. By explicating the normativity of the calibrating role of the master and of rule following generally, we will parse the moral dimensions of the empathizing role of the linguist in Quine’s language learning situation. Finally, by examining the nature of normativity in empathizing, we will establish that the normativity of empathizing involved in Quine’s language learning situation is socially grounded without denying its individual dimension. We will conclude that the normativity objection against Quine’s naturalism thus stands refuted.
The art of education: Creative thinking and video games
Authors: Georgieva Lina , Nikulin Alexander ,   Bulgarian Academy of Sciences
Published: September 2023

The COVID-19 pandemic has shed new light on some significant problems that have been present in the education systems for decades. Тhe lack of various educational methods is becoming more and more evident, leading to a decreasing interest in learning and critical thinking. Оn the other hand, more and more research shows that different types of digital games can enhance creative and critical thinking in students. А closer look at the requirements of the educational programs shows how strict they are in their demands on students. Digital games like role playing games can be a bridge between students’ imaginations and complex educational material. Video games feature a variety of game mechanics that stimulate creative thinking and spark interest in otherwise difficult to understand topics. Motivation and engagement in digital games can be used in a specific way for educational purposes. If we think of teaching as an art in itself, what better method of teaching than through interactive arts.
Authentic Speech and Insincerity
Authors: Unnsteinsson Elmar ,   Journal of Philosophy Inc.
Published: September 2023

Many theorists assume that a request is sincere if the speaker wants the addressee to perform the act requested. I argue that this assumption predicts an implausible mismatch between sincere assertions and sincere directives and needs to be revised. I present an alternative view, according to which directive utterances can only be sincere if they are self-directed. Other-directed directives, however, can be genuine or fake, depending on whether the speaker wants the addressee to perform the act in question. Finally, I argue that this new perspective opens the door to a satisfying theory of authentic expression, for both assertive and directive utterances. Authenticity consists in the combination of genuine and sincere speech, for example, in the case of assertion, when speakers assert something which they both believe (sincerity) and want the addressee to believe (genuineness).
Vliv práce z domova na vyváženost pracovního a osobního života (v oborech kancelářských prací) – studie
Authors: Hájková Tereza
Published: September 2023

V práci byly popsány základy této problematiky a pohled různých autorů na definování pojmů souvisejících s tímto tématem. Také byly dohledány předchozí studie týkající se předkládaného tématu.

Byla provedena obsahová analýza českých i cizojazyčných literárních zdrojů. V praktické části byl sestaven dotazník a připraven podklad pro polostrukturované rozhovory. Vzorek respondentů byl vybrán na základě dostupnosti s vyloučením osob bez zkušenosti s prací z domova a požadavkem, aby se jednalo o zaměstnance v oboru kancelářských prací. Diagnostickými metodami byl tedy dotazník a osobní rozhovory. Získaná data byla zpracována statistickými metodami a porovnána s předchozími výzkumy.

Základní výzkumnou otázkou bylo, zda je pro zaměstnance home office pracovním benefitem? Dále se výzkumné šetření zaměřilo na analýzu, zda pracovní povinnosti  zaberou při home office více nebo méně času než při práci na pracovišti?

Ze získaných dat vyplývá, že většina zaměstnanců považuje home office za důležitý benefit. Respondenti se při práci z domova nepřiklání k upřednostňování pracovního ani osobního života a pracovní povinnosti při práci z domova jim zaberou srovnatelné množství času jako při práci z kanceláře.

Výzkumné šetření bylo součástí diplomové práce a komplexního Interního projektu  P/VSP/221/N – Využití Workplace wellness při podpoře zdraví a duševní pohody zaměstnanců s přihlédnutím k vlivu Covid 19.

The conditional sentences for corruptors are considered too lenient and not in line with the law. However, judges have the freedom to choose the type of punishment and sentencing that suits their discretion because, in the positive criminal law principles in Indonesia, there is the use of alternative criminal sanctions alongside the adoption of a minimum, maximum general, and maximum specific criminal system within each criminal offense. This study is dissected using juridical-normative analysis based on the law. Its aim is to provide criticism of the rationale in deciding a case, thereby ensuring a sense of justice is fulfilled.

On sites with weakly leached chernozems located in the agro-ecological conditions of the municipality of Kaynardzha, Silistra region, the soil fertility and the productivity of agricultural lands were assessed in two ways: 1. Through the routinely used in Bulgaria “Methodology for work on the cadaster of agricultural lands in NRB” (Petrov et al., 1988.) and 2. Through a newly developed methodology “Modern approaches for potential assessment (Land evaluation and categorization) of agricultural lands in Bulgaria” (Radovanova, 2020). The results showed the following: In the current evaluation, the average agronomic score of the lands subject to research under non-irrigated conditions is 69, and under irrigated conditions 86, i.e. this classifies land use suitability in the 4th and 2nd categories respectively. The obtained average agronomic scores at the potential assessment of 72 and 90 under non-irrigated and irrigated conditions, respectively, classify the suitability of these lands into the 3rd category (non-irrigated) and the 1st category (irrigated). The critical comparison of the results leads to the conclusion that even for lands with some of the most fertile Bulgarian soils, the current assessment does not reveal their full production potential. For practice, both assessments should be performed simultaneously. This would most accurately orient manufacturers for the type of technological solutions and the size of the necessary investments.
Investigation on the effect of broomrape infection and mycorrhizal inoculants on mineral composition of oriental tobacco

Published: September 2023

The influence of broomrape infection and microbial inoculants (Rhizo-Vam Basic®, Mycoplant® and Funky Fungi®) on the mineral composition of oriental tobacco was studied in a pot experiment. Eight treatments were tested, distributed in the following four groups: (1) control; (2) treatment with broomrape infection; (3) treatments with mycorrhizal inoculants and (4) treatments with broomrape+mycorrhizal inoculants. Broomrape infection reduced the dry weight of tobacco leaves by 31.4% compared to the control. A tendency towards a decrease in the concentrations of the essential nutritional elements – P, K, Zn and Cu, and a more pronounced increase in the concentrations of Ca and Mg in the leaves of tobacco infected with broomrape was found. Nutrient removal by infected tobacco leaves was also reduced, especially by removing phosphorus, zinc and copper. Microbial inoculants containing arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi increased the content of mineral nitrogen, available phosphorus and potassium in the soil. Application of mycorrhizal inoculants, in most cases, increased the phosphorus concentration in tobacco leaves - by 18.2%-22.7% compared to the control. This was associated with an improvement in N concentrations (+1.1%-13.5%), K concentrations (+4.3%-32.2%), and Zn concentrations (+9.8%-21.1%) in leaves of inoculated plants. Mycorrhizal inoculants did not prevent biomass reduction of broomrape-infected plants, but partially reduced weight losses. The application of a mycorrhizal inoculant did not completely prevent the decrease in the essential nutrient concentration in the plants infected with broomrape, but it improved the mineral balance and had a positive effect on nitrogen and phosphorus nutrition.
Survival of breeders in a Danish Black-legged Kittiwake Rissa tridactyla colony - a capture-mark-recapture study
Authors: Lerche-Jørgensen Mathilde , Pedersen Johnny , Frederiksen Morten
Published: September 2023

The Black-legged Kittiwake Rissa tridactyla is one of the most numerous seabirds in the North Atlantic, but during the last couple of decades there have been reports of widespread large declines in breeding populations. In some areas, these declines are believed to be linked to lack of prey (Lesser Sandeel Ammodytes marinus) due to industrial fishing and increasing sea surface temperatures. In this paper, we explore the effect of sea surface temperature and age on survival of adult breeders in a small and relatively stable Danish colony of Black-legged Kittiwakes from 1992 to 2010. We found that survival did not vary significantly over the study period (mean 0.82), but was lower than reported from other studies. This could be due to a trade-off between reproduction and survival, leading to a lower survival, or it could be due to a high emigration leading to a too low estimate. Sea surface temperature had no effect on survival, contrary to other studies. Danish Black- legged Kittiwakes may rely on a food source which is not affected by the sea temperatures, either other species of fish or fishery discards. Finally, we found that survival decreased with age, in line with other studies.
Aging Atlantic Puffins Fratercula arctica in summer and winter
Authors: Harris Mike
Published: September 2023

Atlantic Puffins Fratercula arctica in summer and winter plumage can be aged as first-year, second-year, third-year, young adult and old adult using the number of grooves on the outer part of the beak. The technique is useful to bird ringers and those dealing with birds found dead in wrecks and pollution incidents where knowledge of the ages of individuals involved can help assess the likely effect on breeding populations.

In this first study of adult Black Guillemot Cepphus grille diet in the Norwegian mainland, 62 of 63 birds caught incidentally in Lumpfish Cyclopterus lumpus gill nets in the north of the country in April-June 2012 and 2013 contained food remains in their stomachs. Fourteen prey taxa were identified and crustaceans were present in 90% of the stomachs containing food, with squat lobsters (sub-order Anamura) being most common (in 79%). Rock Gunnel Pholis gunnellus was present in 17 (27%) of the samples. The only other prey types to be found in more than 20% of the samples were sculpins (Cottoidei, probably Cottidae and Agonidae, in 13 samples = 21%) and remains of Caridean shrimps (also in 13 samples). There were no differences in the frequencies of taxa in the diets of immature and adult birds or of males and females.
Measuring patient well-being: an exploratory study of the Haptotherapeutic Well-Being Scale (HWS)
Authors: Klabbers Gert A. , Vingerhoets Ad J.J.M.
Published: September 2023

Background The HWS is developed for measuring patient well-being and may be useful in linking the specific Haptotherapy (HT) interventions – insight-providing conversations, skills exercises, and therapeutic touch – to the various dimensions of well-being. The aim is to obtain insight into the reliability and validity of the newly developed HWS and its potential usefulness in the clinical setting. Method: HT patients aged 18 or older (N = 640) completed a one-time digital questionnaire at home before treatment. A control group of 18 years or older who were not treated by a haptotherapist (N = 151) completed the same questionnaire at home. Results We demonstrated significant medium and strong correlations of four of the five HWS subscales, each with two or more Four-Dimensional Symptom Questionnaire (4DSQ) subscales and the HWS sum score with all 4DSQ subscales. The factor analysis of the HWS yielded one factor, Cronbach's Alpha: .860. The HWS sum score of the No-HT group was significantly higher than the HT group, and the same goes for all HWS subscales. Furthermore, we demonstrated significant strong correlations of all five HWS subscales with the 5-item World Health Organization Well-Being Index (WHO-5) sum score and a significant and strong correlation of the HWS sum score with the WHO-5 sum score. Conclusion The Haptotherapeutic Well-being Scale (HWS) appears to be reliable and can be used for measuring well-being from a haptotherapeutic perspective. Further research is needed to confirm the reliability and validity of the HWS, and its sensitivity to detect changes. Appendices HWS in English, Dutch, German and French.

Published: September 2023

The problem of vehicle routing with capacity is a combinatorial optimization problem that is included in the NP-Hard category. In this article, we suggest an artificial bee colony algorithm, which is a technique inspired by the clever behavior of bees in searching for food sources. To achieve the best outcomes, the artificial bee colony algorithm will be developed in conjunction with other algorithms. To determine how well the artificial bee colony method handles the issue of optimizing vehicle routes with capacity, eight distinct benchmark problems will be completed and then contrasted with other algorithms. The output of this research is a matrix showing the sequence of vehicle routes formed.
Development of Kirchoff’s Law Drawing Tools to Improve Student’s Science Skills in Learning Process of Direct Flow Circuits
Authors: Ainun Nur , Jefriyanto Jefriyanto
Published: September 2023

This research develops a teaching tool for Kirchoff's law on the concept of direct current circuits, which is motivated by the minimal number of tools and the lack of tools available in schools as learning media and to improve science process skills. The development of the tool lies in replacing the input source with an adapter because the energy does not run out quickly, resulting in a more stable value. The research method used is development research from Akker with the type of development research model, which consists of introduction, prototype, summative evaluation, systematic reflection, and documentation. The purpose of this research is to test the feasibility, effectiveness and practicality of the developed teaching aids. The research subjects were 100 students from two classes. The instruments used were non-tests (guidelines for interviews, observations, and questionnaires) and multiple-choice tests. The results of the assessment of Kirchoff's legal aids were declared feasible, effective, and practical.

The Ministry of Health provides training to employees to improve their skills and level of service to the people of Indonesia. In the health service training activities carried out, employee training is carried out through seminars. The seminar was conducted in the form of application presentations and hardcopy manuals. The implementation that has been implemented is still lacking because there is no online application that helps the facilitator measure participants' understanding. Therefore, the researchers built an application that aims to produce a website-based online training application. The system development method uses Rapid Application Development (RAD), which is modeled using Unified Modeling Language (UML) tools. Using the PHP programming language and MySQL as a Relational Database Management system, this research produces a training application that can assist the Ministry of Health, especially the Center for Data and Information, in conducting training.
