Authors: Liu Sitong , Yu Jiazhou , Wu Li , Wang Lu , Liu Chengguo , Yu Senhai , Zhang Xuhui
Published: September 2023

Background
Pulse blood pressure was significantly associated with cardiovascular mortality in middle-aged and elderly populations, but less evidence was known for the incidence of cardiovascular diseases.
Objective
The aim of this stusy was to assess the association of pulse pressure (PP) with the incident risks of cardiovascular disease in all populations,and to further evaluate relationships of pulse pressure and blood pressure, jointly, with the incidence of cardiovascular diseases.
Method
A total of 13,489 participants from the Zhejiang Metabolic Syndrome cohort was recruited. Pulse pressure was defined as the difference between the systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and participant pulse pressure levels were categorized into two groups : normal PP(<60 mmHg) and high PP (≥ 60 mmHg). Cox proportional hazards models was performed to estimate the hazard ratio (HR) and its 95% CI for the incidence of CVD, adjusted for the potential confounding factors.
Results
After a median of follow-up of 10.03 years, 1466 CVD events (10.9%) were observed in the cohort. The HRs of CVD were significantly positively correlated with PP. After adjusting for age, sex, smoking, drinking, BMI, HR, TG, LDL-C, FPG, Lipid-lowering drugs, Hypoglycemic agent and baseline hypertension with a multiple Cox regression model, subjects with PP ≥ 60mmHg group showed the higher risk of CVD, with a HR of 1.220 (95% CI 1.084 to 1.373).
Conclusion
PP ≥ 60 mmHg was significantly associated with an increased risk of CVD in all populations. Hypertension subjects with pulse pressure over 60mmHgshould be given more attention in the prevention of CVD and control of pulse pressure, especially in women. Further studies are needed to corroborate these findings.

Published: September 2023

Background
Oral tongue cancer (OTC) incidence has increased rapidly among young (< 50 years) non-Hispanic White (NHW) individuals in the United States (U.S.) over the last two decades; however, it is unknown if age-associated trajectories have persisted. Furthermore, incidence trends for all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia have never been investigated.
Materials and methods
Using U.S. Cancer Statistics data, we investigated incidence trends from 2001–2019, overall and according to age, sex, race/ethnicity, and state of residence. We used age-period-cohort analysis to explore temporal patterns among birth cohorts and to project future trends and case counts.
Results
OTC incidence increased across all age, sex, and racial/ethnic groups, with marked increases observed among the NHWs (2.9%/year; 95%CI, 2.2%-3.7%). Incidence among NHWs increased in most U.S. states, particularly in the Southeast. Increases were significantly greater among NHW females compared to males (3.6%/year vs 2.6%/year; P = 0.022). Increases among females aged 50–59 years were most notable and significantly outpaced increases among younger females (4.8%/year [95% CI, 4.1%-5.4%] vs. 3.3%/year [95% CI, 2.7%-3.8%]; P < .001). While both NHW male and female birth cohorts from 1925 to 1980 saw sustained increases, rates stabilized among females born after 1980. Should trends continue, the burden of new OTC cases among NHWs in the U.S. is projected to shift to older individuals (33.1% versus 49.3% aged ≥ 70) and females (86% case increase versus 62% among males).
Conclusion
The period of rapidly increasing OTC incidence among younger NHW females in the U.S. is tempering and giving way to greater increases among older females, suggesting that a birth cohort effect may have influenced previously observed trends. Recent increases among NHWs aged ≥ 50 of both sexes have matched or outpaced younger age groups. Continuing increases among older individuals, particularly females, will lead to a shift in the OTC patient profile over time.

The importance of managing stress load in young female athletes, particularly those at the highest level in sports such as gymnastics, has gained significant attention in recent times. Effective stress management strategies can help these athletes perform better, reduce the risk of injury and improve their overall well-being. The aim of the current work is to investigate the effect of training self-regulation ability through biofeedback on pre-pubescent female elite gymnasts’ stress management. 8 elite young female athletes from a top-flight French national league club took part in the study. We implemented a within-subject, cross-over design; during the experimental condition athletes involved in biofeedback training in rest and stress scenarios, while in the control condition the participants watched motivational videos. Our results show that biofeedback training of elite athletes increased self-regulatory ability and psychological resilience under stressful conditions and it seemingly decreased sensitivity to gymnastics-specific stress. The main result of this study is to have demonstrated that individual’s ability to self‐regulate stress‐related psychophysiological phenomena is trainable.
Comparative Quantum-Classical Dynamics of
Natural and Synthetic Molecular Rotors Shows How Vibrational Synchronization Modulates Quantum Efficiency
Authors: Olivucci Massimo , Blanco-Gonzalez Alejandro , Manathunga Madushanka , Yang Xuchun
Published: September 2023

We use quantum-classical trajectories to investigate the origin of the different photoisomerization quantum efficiency observed in the dim-light visual pigment Rhodopsin and in the light-driven biomimetic molecular rotor para-methoxy N-methyl indanylidene-pyrrolinium (MeO-NAIP) in methanol. The results reveal that effective light-energy conversion requires, in general, an auxiliary molecular vibration (called promoter) that does not correspond to the rotary motion but synchronizes with it at specific times. They also reveal that Nature has designed Rhodopsin to exploit two mechanisms working in a vibrationally coherent regime. The first uses a wag promoter to ensure that ca. 75% of the absorbed photons lead to unidirectional rotations. The second mechanism ensures that the same process is fast enough to avoid directional randomization. It is found that MeO-NAIP in methanol is incapable of exploiting the above mechanisms resulting into a 50% quantum efficiency loss. However, when the solvent is removed, MeO-NAIP rotation is predicted to synchronize with a ring-inversion promoter leading to a 30% increase in quantum efficiency and, therefore, biomimetic behavior.

Chronic back pain is an ailment that impacts people of all ages and lasts longer than 12 weeks. 7.41% of all Years Lost to Disability (YLD) are associated with low back pain, which makes it the pathology responsible for the most YLD, surpassing other chronic conditions such as Diabetes and Depression. Despite the prevalence of drugs such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), painkillers, and biologics, the types of drugs administered to individuals differ greatly. We collected data from the PubMed database of the PubMed database, National Library of Medicine (NIH), and Google Scholar. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that explicitly evaluate the effectiveness of various NSAIDs in adult patients with chronic back pain were selected for this study. After an exhaustive search and examination of numerous publications, only 8 articles met the inclusion criteria. In recent studies that included NSAIDs, they were among the most frequently prescribed medications for the treatment of chronic low back pain. In comparison to placebo, selective COX-II inhibitors such as celecoxib and etoricoxib were found to be efficacious, while valdecoxib was associated with serious side effects. In addition to reducing back pain, COX-II inhibitors with a preference for COX-II, such as aceclofenac and diclofenac, were associated with gastrointestinal side effects. Despite the risk of joint degeneration and accelerated osteoarthritis, intravenous tanezumab may be superior to naproxen and placebo in treating chronic low back pain.

Published: September 2023

Introduction
Artificial intelligence chatbots, like ChatGPT, have become powerful tools that are disrupting how humans interact with technology. The potential uses within medicine are vast. In medical education, these chatbots have shown improvements, in a short time span, in generalized medical examinations. We evaluated the overall performance and improvement between ChatGPT 3.5 and 4.0 in a test of pediatric cardiology knowledge.
Methods
ChatGPT 3.5 and ChatGPT 4.0 were used to answer text based multiple choice questions derived from a Pediatric Cardiology Board Review textbook. Each chatbot, was given an 88 question test, subcategorized into 11 topics. We excluded questions with modalities other than text (sound clips or images). Statistical analysis was done using an unpaired two-tailed t-test.
Results
Of the same 88 questions, ChatGPT 4.0 answered 66% of the questions correctly (n=58/88) which was significantly greater (p<0.0001) than ChatGPT 3.5, which only answered 38% (33/88). The ChatGPT 4.0 version also did better on each subspeciality topic as compared to ChatGPT 3.5.
Conclusion
While acknowledging that ChatGPT does not yet offer subspecialty level knowledge in pediatric cardiology, the performance in pediatric cardiology educational assessments showed a considerable improvement in a short period of time between ChatGPT 3.5 to 4.0.

Published: September 2023

Background
Depressive disorders have been associated with TPH2 gene polymorphisms. Additionally, HIV-1 antiretroviral drugs (ART) such as efavirenz (EFV) have been reported to cause neuropsychiatric adverse effects.
Objective
This study aimed to determine the genotypes and allelic frequencies of TPH2 SNPs (rs120074175, rs1386493, rs4570625, and rs7305115) in a Mexican cohort of ART-naive patients, and healthy volunteers as control, and assess the severity of their depressive symptoms using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI).
Methods
In a prospective study conducted from January 2017 to December 2018, eigthy-one HIV-1-positive ART-naive patients were recruited from the Infectious Disease Hospital, National Medical Center “La Raza”, Mexico City; 39 were treated with EFV, and 42 treated with atazanavir (ATV). Additionally, 59 healthy subjects were included as controls. Blood samples were collected and genomic DNA obtained from peripheral blood polymorphonuclear cells. All DNA samples were subjected to qPCR using TaqMan probes for the TPH2 SNPs. Additionally, all subjects were evaluated using the BDI.
Results
The frequencies and distributions of alleles among the SNPs studied showed that the genotype frequencies resulted in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) for all SNPs evaluated, except for the rs120074175 in the people living with HIV (PLWH), and controls with the wild-type allele (GG genotype, 100%). Three of the four analyzed SNPs did not show statistically significant differences in the distribution of the rs1386493, rs4570625 and rs7305115 alleles between patients and controls. A total of 64.1% of PLWH, who were treated with EFV had depression according to the initial BDI score, and after four weeks, 90.4% of them had severe depression. Among patients treated with ATV, 73.8% had severe depression at the baseline and, at 4 weeks, 87.5% had severe depression. The increase in depressive symptoms was more evident in patients treated with EFV (EFV X2: 19.085; df: 1; p < 0.0001; ATV X2: 5.383; df: 1; p = 0.0203).
Conclusion
In this study, we showed that 69.13% of patients with HIV diagnosis have severe depression from started. The severity of depressive symptoms was higher in the group of patients treated with EFV after four weeks of treatment. It will be important to consider a psychiatric monitoring of each patient to contain adverse effects and/or provide timely antidepressant treatment.

Published: September 2023

Cuprous oxide (Cu2O) is proven as an excellent anti-harmful microbial material. However, the liquid and vapor phase preparation methods reported so far hardly make pure Cu2O-containing composites and suffer environment issues caused by chemical reducing agents with multiple processing steps. This work develops a facile one-pot solid-state sintering method to synthesize Cu2O/microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) composite via the thermal decomposition and oxidation-reduction reactions where copper formate was reduced by MCC. The Cu2O/MCC composite exhibits superior purity, dispersibility, stability, high yield, and high efficacy of antibacterial and antiviral properties, e.g., against E. coli, S. aureus, and Equine Arteritis Viral. This work utilizes elegantly the strong reducing capability of cellulose to develop an environmentally benign method to prepare high purity Cu2O-polymer composites with low cytotoxicity and cost, which can be incorporated readily into other substrate materials to form various forms of anti-harmful microbial materials widely used in public health care products.

Indian mustard (Brassica juncea Linn. Czern & Coss) is the important sources of edible oil in India. Its yield is declining due to several biotic stress like insect pests and disease. Out of the biotic stress the insect pests are more severe during the reproductive stages. Among the insect pests of mustard, aphid, Lipaphis erysimi pseudobrassicae (Kaltenbach, 1843) (Homoptera: Aphididae) is a destructive pest of Indian mustard prevalent in warm and humid regions of the world, especially in the eastern parts of South Asia. For the management of this aphid, the most effective ecofriendly measure to develop resistant cultivar. Thus, the present investigation was carried out to confirm L. e. pseudobrassicae resistance germplasm based on visual observations. These germplasms were screened for L. e. pseudobrassicae resistance in the natural conditions during 2020-21 and 2021-22 along with one susceptible check (Varuna) and one resistant check (Pusa Gaurav). During both the experimental year at flowering stage only one germplasm used as resistant check (Pusa Gaurav) reported under resistant category, moderately resistance (9, 7), susceptible category (32, 34) and none of the germplasm found highly susceptible in both the year. At the pod setting stage (2020-21 and 2021-22) the germplasm Pusa Gaurav used as resistant check reported under resistance category, 10 germplasm in moderately resistance category, the 31 germplasm under susceptible category, and none of the germplasm recorded as highly susceptible. These newly identified resistant germplasm could be used by mustard breeders for developing L. e. pseudobrassicae resistant mustard varieties.

Availability of portable water is a global challenge which has necessitated search for additional sources of water. The global focus now is on groundwater which on its own, is only available in abundance at certain locations. The search for groundwater potential to meet increasing demand of the populace is very important in order to sustain livelihood of the populace and to sustain industrial development. Kurna in Dala Local Government of Kano is one of the most densely populated area in Kano known for its scarcity of portable water. There are various method of investigating groundwater potential depending on the terrain and availability of equipment. A geo-electrical investigation was conducted to delineate the regional aquifer parameters for groundwater exploration in some parts of Kurna, Kano. 30 vertical electrical soundings (VES) points were carried out in different locations to determine the possible regions of high aquifer potential. The interpreted data was used to develop geo-electric/geologic sections and contoured the aquifer thickness and resistivity maps. The results show that, the study area is underlain by two, three and four geological layers. The interpreted data shows that the topsoil resistivity and thickness vary between 5.0 Ωm – 102 Ωm and 1.5m – 38m respectively. While the resistivity and thickness of the second layer vary between 3.0Ωm – 968Ωm and 2.0m – 58m respectively. The last layer is characterized with high resistivity values of up to 56229Ωm with an infinite thickness and it is the fresh basement complex of the study area. Based on these aquifer parameters, the VES points with relatively low resistivity and high thickness values of the weathered/fractured basement have been successfully delineated as the targets for aquifer promising zones for groundwater development.
Electron addition spectral functions of low-density polaron liquids
Authors: Nocera Alberto , Berciu Mona
Published: September 2023

Spectral functions are important quantities that contain a wealth of information about the quasiparticles of a system, and that can also be measured experimentally. For systems with electron-phonon coupling, good approximations for the spectral function are available only in the Migdal limit (at Fermi energies much larger than the typical phonon frequency, E_F\gg \OmegaEF≫Ω, requiring a large carrier concentration xx) and in the single polaron limit (at x=0x=0). Here we show that the region with x\ll 1x≪1(E_F<\OmegaEF<Ω) can also be reliably investigated with the Momentum Average (MA) variational approximation, which essentially describes the formation of a polaron above an inert Fermi sea. Specifically, we show that for the one-dimensional spinless Holstein model, the MA spectral functions compare favorably with those calculated using variationally exact density matrix renormalization group simulations (DMRG) evaluated directly in frequency-space, so long as x<0.1x<0.1 and the adiabaticity ratio \Omega/t>0.5Ω/t>0.5. Unlike in the Migdal limit, here 'polaronic physics’ emerges already at moderate couplings. The relevance of these results for a spinful low-xx metal is also discussed.

Published: September 2023

Introduction: When individuals are not aware of the nature and scope of behaviors related to sexual abuse, they may face the risk of abuse. Individuals with intellectual disabilities may also experience abuse, just like other individuals. Raising awareness through education is the most important measure to prevent sexual abuse. The skills individuals use to prevent sexual abuse are very important and functional especially for individuals with special needs so that they can spend their lives independently and safely.
Method: This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of the curriculum developed in line with the cognitive process approach in helping people with intellectual disabilities to acquire the skill of sexual abuse prevention. The study was designed with the multiple probe model across participants, one of the single-subject research methods, and baseline, instruction, probe, and generalization phases were used. Three 12–14-year-old female students with intellectual disability were included in the study. An instructional program based on the social decoding, social decision making/deciding, social performance, and social evaluation stages of the cognitive process approach was prepared to teach the target skill to the participants. The program made use of stories about sexual abuse situations and how to avoid these situations, as well as pictures depicting these stories. Participants were taught three prevention skills to avoid sexual abuse: "saying no", "getting out of the environment", and "telling what occurred to someone they trusted”.
Findings: At the end of the study, it was concluded that the developed instructional program was effective in helping three female students in acquiring the sexual abuse prevention skills. This effect can be explained both by the increase in the data collected during the teaching process and by the fact that the probe data collected at the end of the instruction were higher than the probe data collected before the instruction.
Discussion: The findings obtained from the research were discussed in the light of the studies in the literature and suggestions were made for further studies.

Extraction of silica has now been developed as one of the additional nutrients in the soil. This silica extraction technology is developed from materials that are no longer used as an example of rice husks. As a result of the extraction of rice husk silica is used to nourish the rice plants themselves. The addition of plant nutrients can be optimized by using an encapsulation system. The process of nutritional encapsulation is expected to optimize the absorption of nutrients in the soil in slow reaction. This inhibitory process can also be supported by the use of nutrient remobilization. So the purpose of this research is to obtain the optimum result of silica extract from rice husk and to know the characteristics of capsulation result of silica extract produced. As for this research using the addition of KOH so that this research method using Randomized Block Design (RBD) with KOH 2.5%, 5%, and 7.5%. The analyst has performed mass equilibrium analysis, water content of the material, and SEM analysis for physical analysis. In this study showed that with the addition of 5% KOH treatment to be the best treatment in this study that produced as many as 4.5 grams. Furthermore, the sample was treated with liquid nitrogen as an encapsulation medium. The result of the research showed that the silica value contained in the extract yield on KOH 5% by 19.4% while in addition KOH 7.5% silica content of 21.8%. This shows the highest value of yield that is in the addition of KOH of 5% but the silk content of the most that is in the addition of KOH of 7.5%.

LA PREEMINENCIA DE LA VISIÓN EXTRÍNSECA DE CALIDAD EN LAS UNIVERSIDADES MEXICANAS
Authors: Silva Montes César
Published: September 2023

La acepcio?n de calidad educativa en las universidades mexicanas se define desde la visio?n extri?nseca a las instituciones encabezada por los conceptos de empresarios, gobernantes y economistas, con un enfoque te?cnico que busca la rentabilidad de la educacio?n, derivado de la cri- sis econo?mica mundial de los ochenta. En oposicio?n, se plantea una visio?n intri?nseca de la calidad en educacio?n vinculada a los valores e?ticos y a los dilemas cotidianos que enfrenta el profesorado e intenta solucionarlos con teori?as surgidas de la propia pra?ctica docente. En este marco, en el presente arti?culo se esboza la conveniencia de que la calidad educativa en las IES la determine la comunidad escolar en dia?logo con la administracio?n. Seri?a una definicio?n desde la cotidianidad y particularidad de cada institucio?n con relacio?n a su contexto, en oposicio?n al predominio de las nociones generadas desde posturas afines a la produccio?n y al valor econo?mico, o en nombre de las abstractas necesidades sociales. Se parte de la idea de que la calidad en educacio?n es una construccio?n histo?rica, multidimensional, contradictoria y particular, por tanto, no debe servir para establecer jerarqui?as o exclusio?n de aquellas experiencias que no coinciden con las posturas hegemo?nicas.

Palabras clave: Calidad, Educacio?n, Extri?nseca, Intri?nseca, Mercado.

Abstract

The meaning of educational quality in Mexican universities is defined from the extrinsic vision to institutions headed by the concepts of entrepreneurs, leaders, and economists, with a technical approach that seeks the return to education, derived from the global economic crisis of the eighties. In contrast, an intrinsic vision of quality education linked to ethical values and the daily dilemmas faced by teachers and try to solve them with emerging theories of teaching effectiveness arises. In this context, in this article, the desirability of educational quality in the IES determine the school community in dialogue with the administration outlined. It would be a definition from every day and uniqueness of each institution in relation to its context, as opposed to the predominance of the generated ideas from like-minded production and economic value, or on behalf of abstract social needs. It starts from the idea that the quality of education is a historical, multidimensional, contradictory and particular construction, therefore, should not serve to establish hierarchies or exclusion of those experiences that do not match the hegemonic positions.

Tras la muerte de Wagner y Brahms, Richard Strauss emergio? como uno de los compositores ma?s importantes y populares de la mu?sica del siglo XX.

Asi?, mujeres reales y mujeres ficticias se confunden en sus obras en un proceso creativo u?nico: el del hombre-artista.
