Published: November 2024

Water quality and aquatic ecosystems along lakeshores are vital for ecological balance and human well-being. However, research has primarily focused on plankton, with benthic niches being largely overlooked. To enhance understanding of benthic microbial communities, we utilized 16S and 18S rRNA sequencing alongside multivariate statistical methods to analyze samples from the shoreline of Lake Taihu in Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province. Our results reveal a marked difference in species composition between benthic and planktonic microorganisms, with benthic cyanobacteria predominantly comprising filamentous genera like Tychonema, while 95% of planktonic cyanobacteria were Cyanobium. The β-diversity of benthic microorganisms was notably higher than that of planktonic counterparts. The neutral community model indicated that stochastic processes dominated planktonic microbial assembly, while deterministic processes prevailed in benthic communities. Null models showed that homogeneous selection influenced benthic community assembly, whereas planktonic communities were affected by undominated processes and dispersal limitation. Network analysis indicated that planktonic networks were more stable than benthic networks. Importantly, dominant benthic cyanobacterial genera posed potential toxin risks, highlighting the need for enhanced monitoring and ecological risk assessment. Overall, these findings enhance our understanding of benthic and planktonic microbial communities in lakeshores and offer valuable insights for aquatic assessment and management in eutrophicated environments.

Published: November 2024

Reservoirs deliver vital ecological services, including water storage and drainage. However, these functions are increasingly compromised by the dual pressures of climate change and human activities. Among the most pressing concerns is reservoir sedimentation, highlighting the urgency of investigating hydrodynamic sediment scouring. This study focuses on the plain reservoirs of Liaoning Province, using the Shifo Temple Reservoir as a case study. An optimized sediment scouring scheme was developed based on the reservoir’s hydrodynamic characteristics to improve water and sediment management. A coupled hydrodynamic and sediment transport (ST) model was constructed to simulate runoff dynamics and sediment distribution within the Liao he River Basin, while the MIKE21 model was applied to simulate the interaction between the hydrodynamics and sediment transport. The study analyzed groundwater dynamics across different runoff scenarios, seasons, and representative years, offering a scientific foundation for optimizing water and sediment allocation strategies. The results demonstrated a strong correlation between simulated and observed data during validation, confirming the accuracy of the hydrodynamic simulations. Utilizing the coupled HD and ST modules, the study proposed a sediment transfer scheme. The analysis revealed that flow rates between 165 and 190 m3/s significantly enhance sediment scouring in the long term (2029–2039) compared to the short term (2024–2029), effectively reducing sedimentation, minimizing deposition length, and lowering silt removal costs. The findings offer critical insights for predicting reservoir evolution and conducting risk assessments, thereby contributing to the sustainable management and ecological restoration of water systems in Liaoning Province.

Published: November 2024

When utilizing the Crop Water Stress Index (CWSI), the most critical factor is accurately measuring canopy temperature, which is typically done using infrared sensors and imaging cameras. In this study, however, we aimed to develop a machine learning model capable of predicting leaf temperature based on environmental data, without relying on sensors, for calculating CWSI. The data underwent preprocessing to remove outliers and missing values. The number of training data points for each factor was 307,924. After data preprocessing, a Pearson correlation analysis (bivariate correlation coefficient) was conducted to select the training data for model operation. The relationship between leaf temperature and air temperature showed a strong positive correlation of 0.928 (p < 0.01). Solar radiation and relative humidity were also found to have high correlations. However, wind speed and soil moisture tension showed very low correlations with leaf temperature and were excluded from the model operation. The Decision Tree, Random Forest, and Gradient Boosting models were selected, and each model was evaluated using RMSE (Root Mean Squared Error), MAE (Mean Absolute Error), MSE (Mean Squared Error), and R2 (coefficient of determination). The evaluation results showed that the Gradient Boosting model had a high R2 (0.97) and low RMSE (0.88) and MAE (0.54), making it the most suitable model for predicting leaf temperature. Through the leaf temperature prediction model developed in this study, labor and costs associated with sensors can be reduced, and by applying it to real agricultural settings, it can improve crop quality and enhance the sustainability of agriculture.

Published: November 2024

A dengue é uma arbovirose transmitida pelo mosquito Aedes aegypti, classificada também como uma doença tropical negligenciada. Essas doenças prevalecem em regiões tropicais e subtropicais associadas à pobreza e a condições sanitárias precárias, afetando principalmente populações de baixo nível socioeconômico. A dengue, causada pelos sorotipos do vírus DENV tem uma alta incidência global, com estimativas entre 100 e 400 milhões de casos anuais. No Brasil, é considerada endêmica, fato refletido nos números de notificações que cresceram significativamente, com 6.522.344 casos registrados entre 2023 e maio de 2024. Com isso, o presente trabalho objetivou identificar e atualizar o perfil epidemiológico do paciente com maior probabilidade de ser acometido pela dengue com base nos critérios de sexo e idade, além do desfecho da infecção. Para isso, o estudo epidemiológico transversal analisou a distribuição da dengue de 2018 a 2024, utilizando dados do SINAN e DATASUS. A análise foi feita no Excel 2010 e não precisou de aprovação ética. O estudo verificou dados de 2018 a 2024, revelando variações anuais na distribuição de casos, com picos em 2019, 2022, 2023 e 2024. A faixa etária mais afetada é de 20 a 39 anos, e a doença apresenta maior prevalência em mulheres. A análise também indicou que a população branca e parda é a mais afetada, e o nível de escolaridade não apresenta um padrão claro de incidência. O estudo enfatiza a importância de entender o perfil epidemiológico para melhorar as estratégias de controle e reduzir custos para o sistema de saúde.

Published: November 2024

Objetivo: Investigar na literatura a associação entre a prática etilista e pacientes submetidos à cirurgia bariátrica. Métodos: Revisão Integrativa da Literatura na qual teve como principal questão: “Qual a possível associação da cirurgia bariátrica e o alcoolismo?” A seleção dos trabalhos foi iniciada nos meses de março e junho do ano de 2024 nas seguintes bases de dados: Capes, BVS (Biblioteca Virtual da Saúde) e SciELO, através dos seguintes descritores: cirurgia bariátrica; alcoolismo. Dessa forma foi utilizada o operador booleano AND, e realizado o corte temporal dos trabalhos entre 2014 a 2024, nos seguintes idiomas: português, espanhol e inglês. Resultados: Foram selecionados um total de 9 estudos, sendo o mais recente publicado no ano de 2023 e o mais antigo no ano de 2016. Todos os estudos avaliaram a associação entre pacientes submetidos à cirurgia bariátrica e, o consumo de bebidas alcóolicas. Discussão: A cirurgia bariátrica pode aumentar o risco de dependência de álcool e também de deficiências nutricionais. Os pacientes acreditavam que, a abstinência vitalícia do álcool era irreal e, os principais fatores associados ao consumo foram a transferência do vício alimentar para alcóolico, reuniões sociais e ainda, retomada do uso. Foi descrito ainda que, o efeito do álcool era significativamente mais forte do que antes do procedimento cirúrgico e que, a recomendação da abstinência não seja uma estratégia útil. Considerações finais:  A cirurgia bariátrica pode promover o aumento do consumo abusivo de bebidas alcóolicas em decorrência de modificações metabólicas e alterações psíquicas associadas com as mudanças após procedimento cirúrgico, especialmente entre populações do sexo feminino. Alguns pacientes têm ainda risco aumentado de desenvolver doença hepática cirrótica. Apesar do aumento do consumo de forma significativa, a abstinência não deve ser recomendada, sendo necessário a abordagem multiprofissional, incluído suporte emocional e psiquiátrico aos pacientes que são submetidos á cirurgia para redução de obesidade.

Authors: Saeedi Maryam , Sangsari Razieh , Mirnia Kayvan , Ghanbari Monireh
Published: November 2024

Background: Perfusion index is a dependable indicator for assessing the perfusion status of newborns. A low perfusion index indicates compromised hemodynamic function. The study aims to investigate perfusion index in asymptomatic newborns aged 35 to 41 weeks who did not require medical support. Methods: Healthy neonates born in four major maternity hospitals of Tehran University from 2019 to 2021 were selected. To ensure consistency and reliability in data collection, a detailed manual was developed and distributed, along with comprehensive training sessions for all personnel involved. Results: A total of 994 newborns entered the study. Among them, echocardiography was adversely affected in 218 neonates due to abnormal screening pulse oximetry. Of these 218 neonates, 53 were found to have abnormal echocardiography results. The median perfusion index value in healthy neonates was 1.6%, and the median oxygen saturation was 97%. A percentile perfusion index curve was developed for healthy neonates to establish a normal reference range. Conclusion: Developing a percentile perfusion index curve specific to healthy neonates provides a useful reference range for healthcare providers to assess perfusion status in this population, but further research is needed to confirm its accuracy.

Background: Macrosomia, characterized by excessive fetal growth, is common in infants born to women with pre-gestational diabetes and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). However, macrosomia, which leads to birth-related maternal and fetal complications and metabolic complications in the adolescence of the affected fetuses, also occurs in the pregnancies of non-diabetic women. This study aims to identify the association between second-trimester lipid profiles and macrosomia in non-diabetic pregnant women to aid in early diagnosis. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 8,956 patients who delivered at a tertiary care center between 2017 and 2019. Exclusion criteria encompassed pre-existing diabetes, GDM, preeclampsia (PE), intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy, obesity, fetal chromosomal or genetic abnormalities, tobacco, alcohol, or drug use affecting lipid metabolism. Participants were divided into two groups: 621 with macrosomia and 873 controls. Second trimester maternal lipid profiles and demographic variables such as age, pregnancy week, and gender were assessed. Results: In the study cohort, maternal age (P=0.002), gestational week (P=0.003), and cesarean section rate (P<0.001) were higher in the macrosomic group. High-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) was significantly lower, while total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) were significantly higher in the macrosomic group (P<0.001). Univariate analysis revealed positive associations between second-trimester TG (OR 1.023, 95% CI: 1.020‒1.033, P<0.001), TC (OR 1.023, 95% CI: 1.016‒1.030, P<0.001) and LDL-C (OR 1.036, 95% CI: 1.018-1.054, P<0.001) with macrosomia and a negative association with HDL-C (OR 0.954, 95% CI: 0.923‒0.976, P<0.001). However, after adjusted multivariable logistic analysis, only TG remained statistically significantly associated with macrosomia (OR 1.054, 95% CI: 1.033‒1.076, P<0.001). Conclusion: Our study emphasizes the importance of early recognition and prevention of macrosomia. Structured prospective studies are needed to enhance macrosomia prediction and implement preventive measures, such as dietary modifications. These strategies will be crucial in preventing birth-related complications and long-term health risks, including diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular diseases, associated with macrosomia.

Background: Urinary stone disease is a prevalent health issue worldwide, with varying incidence influenced by multiple factors. This study aims to provide the first comprehensive analysis of urinary stone composition in Azerbaijan. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 1465 patients, aged 1‒83 years, who underwent biochemical urinary stone analysis at the Department of Renal Diseases and Organ Transplantation, Azerbaijan State Security Service Military Hospital, between April 2015 and December 2023. Stone samples were analyzed using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Statistical analyses were performed using the IBM® SPSS software version 29.0. Results: The cohort had a median age of 45 years, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.65:1. Calcium oxalate stones were the most common (56.2%), followed by uric acid (33.7%), struvite (5.3%), cystine (2.5%), calcium phosphate (1.9%), and xanthine (0.1%) stones. Men had a higher prevalence of calcium oxalate and uric acid stones, while women had more struvite stones. Mixed stones were common, particularly among uric acid and struvite stones. Significant differences in stone composition were observed between age groups and genders, with uric acid stones found predominantly in older individuals. Conclusion: This study highlights the predominance of calcium oxalate stones and the elevated prevalence of uric acid stones in Azerbaijan, emphasizing the need for tailored diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. The high prevalence of mixed stones underscores the complexity of urinary stone disease and the need for comprehensive metabolic evaluation and individualized preventive strategies.

Published: November 2024

Background: The aim of this study is to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Food Craving Acceptance and Action Questionnaire (FAAQ) in university students. Methods: The study included 394 undergraduate students at Ankara Yıldırım Beyazıt University. The study included individuals who volunteered to participate, were at least 18 years old, and did not have any severe psychological issues. Explanatory and confirmatory factor analyses of the scale were conducted by dividing the data set into two groups. Cronbach’s α coefficient was analyzed and a test-retest was conducted with 94 students. Results: It was determined that the Food Craving Acceptance and Action Questionnaire had 2 factors (acceptance and willingness). The fit values of the scale were found to be CMIN/df=2.26; GFI=0.92; AGFI=0.87; CFI=0.85; RMSEA=0.08. The acceptance, willingness subscales and total Cronbach α coefficients of the scale were 0.761, 0.716 and 0.761, respectively. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) values were 0.84, 0.81 and 0.80 for acceptance, willingness and total scale score, respectively. Statistically significant negative correlations were found between the ‘acceptance’, ‘willingness’ subscale and total DEBQ, FCQ-T scores, subscale scores and mYFAS 2.0 symptom count (P<0.05). Conclusion: The FAAQ was found to have a two-factor structure and the fit values were found to be within the acceptable range. The age range for university students is considered to be that of adults, and this scale can also be applied to adults in general.

Published: November 2024

Background: Organizations are increasingly seeking comprehensive approaches to improve employee mental well-being (EMW). This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions delivered through the "Loveliness and Well-being of Employees" (LAWE) app, focusing on five key predictors: "Keep Learning," "Connect," "Take Notice," "Be Active," and "Given". Methods: A quasi-experimental intervention was conducted with 110 participants (53 in the intervention group and 57 in the non-intervention group) from the Kerman University of Medical Sciences in Southeastern Iran. Participants were recruited from a census of all employees at four schools. The intervention involved an Android-based app designed to enhance EMW through pre-designed tasks. Six standard tools were used to assess EMW and its predictors. Data analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics 28, employing Independent Samples T-Test, paired-samples t-test, one-way ANOVA, Spearman correlation coefficient and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). Results: The intervention group showed a significant increase in mean EMW score, from 52.26±8.61 to 60.01±6.95 (P<0.01). Based on ANCOVA analysis, the post-intervention mean score was significantly higher in the intervention group compared to the non-intervention group by 0.219 points (P<0.01). The mean score of all predictors, except "Take Notice" (P=0.17), also significantly improved in the intervention group. Additionally, post-intervention comparison between the two groups revealed significant differences in mean EMW score (P<0.01), as well as in the mean scores for "Keep Learning" (P<0.05), "Given" (P<0.01), and "Connect" (P<0.01). Conclusion: The LAWE app provides a desirable and comprehensive platform for improving the EMW in organizations. It significantly improves most of the key predictors of EMW, making it a valuable resource for organizations aiming to promote employee well-being.

Background: Long-term care facility employees’ workload escalation intensifies negative risk for (nursing) staff health, residents, and the economy. Workplace health promotion (WHP) has emerged as a vital approach with positive impacts on employee well-being. This Scoping Review focuses on multimodal WHP programs in long-term care facilities, emphasizing barriers, facilitators, and the integration of complementary and integrative medicine (CIM). Methods: Following the PRISMA-ScR guidelines, a systematic search strategy from February to April 2023 in Medline (PubMed), EMBASE (Ovid), and CINAHL (EBSCOhost) yielded 506 hits. Findings were enriched through semi-structured expert interviews. All data were analyzed with a deductive-inductive qualitative content analysis. Results: Eleven publications met inclusion criteria and eight experts were interviewed based on key topics of the included publications. The integration of the results showed that primary obstacles highlight structural challenges (time, finances, hierarchies) and team dynamics (lack of support, communication issues, low motivation), while effective communication, support from the management, and participatory engagement enhance program success. CIM approaches are not explicitly referenced as such, despite widespread use. Conclusion: An exclusive CIM-focus, with multimodal WHP programs for long-term care facilities is missing and should highlight the necessity of a multimethod approach intervention. While the need for further research about the specific topic of multimodal, CIM-based WHO programs in long-term care facilities – including cross-cultural and international comparisons – is apparent, an appropriate evaluation of complex interventions is challenging given the nature of multimodal WHP programs. A multi-method approach is therefore recommended as standard for further research in this area.

The anti-oxidant activity of essential oils from two plants of the Asteraceae family: Rhetinolepis lonadioides (Coss.) and Pulicaria crispa (Forssk.)
Rhetinolepis lonadioides (Coss.) and Pulicaria crispa (Forssk.) are two medicinal plants belonging to the Asteraceae family, found in the Bechar region (southwest of Algeria), equipped with various biological virtues and medicinal interests. The potential application of the essential oils of these two plants as natural agents with antioxidant effect is evaluated in this research. The chemical compositions of the essential oils of the aerial parts of these two plants R. lonadioides and P. crispa were analyzed via chromatographic and spectral methods by GC-FID and GC-MS. The results revealed a richness of these EOs with interesting molecules in which the majority constituents are β-pinene (41.85%) and Caryophyllene E (40.05%) respectively. Antioxidant activity was conducted using a free radical scavenging system by DPPH assay. The results showed that R. lonadioides oil gave higher antioxidant activity than P. crispa oil with IC50 value: 2.13 μl/ml and 9.11 μl/ml, respectively.
