Authors: Chen Zhaofei , Guan Hongwei
Published: September 2022

As an American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) initiative known as Exercise Is Medicine (EIM) is becoming more and more popular globally, FIT Taijipao has
been proposed as a new approach to exercise. FIT Taijipao has been introduced as an individualized and dynamic exercise. The purpose of this study was to
examine the effects of FIT Taijipao on Heart Rate (HR) at different speeds including peak (YANG) and minimum (YIN) points every three months across 15
months of continuous FIT Taijipao exercise, concluding with a follow-up retention test to examine the effects of an 18-month detraining. The participant
of the case study was recruited in a college-wide mind & health program. A 48-year-old sedentary Asian female volunteered for this pilot longitudinal
study. The participant performed FIT Taijipao on a treadmill two to three times per week in the exercise lab. A Polar HR Monitor (M400 + H10 chest unit)
was used to record HR data. According to FIT Taijipao guidelines, HR Average per 200m was used for data analysis. The Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion
(RPE) scale was used to monitor the participant’s subjective effort and controlled to be no higher than 15. YANG Speed (peak) is attained as RPE reaches
15 or less when HR reaches 145 bpm. The running speed was adjusted according to FIT Taijipao established speed profile. Weekly HR average of YANG (peak)
speed decreased by 25.3 bpm (146.3 to 121.0 bpm) after first 3 months of FIT Taijipao; Weekly HR average at the same speed continuously decreased to 117.3,
120.0, 116.0, and 116.3 bpm at 4.5 mph speed. YANG (peak) speed increased gradually from 4.5 mph, to 5.7, 6.0, 6.1, 6.3, and 6.3 mph every three months.
After 18 months of detraining, a retention FIT Taijipao test was done to examine the HR change. Weekly HR average at 6.3 mph was 160.6 bpm, and the lap
average speed was 5.7 mph when HR was around 145 bpm. The RPE reported was 13. This case study illustrates that regular FIT Taijipao leads to a decreased
HR, a useful index for exercise intensity and cardio-respiratory fitness. The participant enjoyed FIT Taijipao, a 40-45 minutes run. FIT Taijipao has a
great potential to help general population to gain the benefits of exercise and physical activity without being over stressed.

Social Media-Based Professional Development of Physical Education Teachers in China
Authors: Xu Yue , Yin Zhihua
Published: September 2022

In recent years, social media has played an important role in the professional development（PD）of physical education (PE) teachers (Jeffrey P. Carpenter & Stephen
Harvey, 2020). There is a wealth of research on the professional development of PE teachers, but few relevant studies examined social media-based PDs. The purpose of
this study was to specifically explore the research interests and changes in the PD of PE teachers in social media, and to explore the potential research space in this
field. In this literature review, we followed three steps to conduct literature search. We used the following keywords: “social media”, OR “Wechat/Weibo”, AND “physical
educators” or “PE teachers”, AND/OR “professional development” or “PD” for the literature search via the libraries resources of a large university in Shanghai, China.
The search was limited to scholarly peer-reviewed journals. Then we cross-checked the bibliographies of the articles identified through direct library search to
locate any missed articles. We next conducted direct searches in PubMed, Scilit, and ResearchGate with the same keywords. Inclusion criteria included: (a) the
study must be from the perspective of social media; (b) the main results must involve teachers’ PD or related variables. A total of 56 highly relevant articles
were retrieved and then saved to a data processing computer. The research team summarized and reported below several thematic findings. The main aspects of
researches for social-media related PD of PE teachers were summarized including relevant concepts, connotation characteristics, theoretical basis, current
development status, relevant factors, existing problems and corresponding strategies. The efficient communication and interaction as an important function
of social media has attracted extensive attention and induced discussion in academic circles, where the topics mainly focus on the construction of identity,
knowledge sharing, etc. Many related studies have continued examining the PD of individual teachers but are not specific to the reality of PE teacher groups,
so the combination with the specific implementation of relevant theories on PE teacher groups needs more attention in related work. Social media can fill some
of the gaps in PE teachers’ traditional PD community. It is necessary to conduct more comprehensive theoretical and empirical studies on social media-based PDs
for PE teachers. The findings from this literature review shed light on the integration of resources needed to promote and thrive social media-based PD
opportunities for PE teachers.

‘Natural’ Label Halo Effect on Consumer Buying Behavior, Purchase Intention and Willingness to Pay for Skincare Products
Authors: Kapoor S. , Fernandes S. , Punia S.
Published: September 2022

Healthy skin will never go out of style, and the advancements and improvements in the cosmetics industry guarantee to provide improved products with a healthy and personal touch. However, for consumers, it is difficult to assess the quality and effectiveness of a product. Extrinsic cues like the “Natural” or “Organic” labels are used to help the consumer distinguish between alternatives. This paper analyses how the organic label biases the consumers’ buying behavior, perceived value, and finally, the consumer’s purchase decision and the price he willingly pays for the product (willingness to pay). This phenomenon is known as the natural label halo effect. It further means to reveal the connections between the effect of the ‘Natural’ label on the factors affecting buying behavior and it’s out-turn as emulated in the consumer’s perceived value. It intends to identify if those outcomes at last lead to positive buying decisions and greater willingness to pay. A quantitative study in an experimental online shopping scenario was conducted to understand the relations. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was done to test the hypothesized statements. The results show that the halo effect of the ‘Natural’ label positively influences the factors affecting consumer buying behavior and eventually improves the probability of the product being bought by the consumer and also the price the consumer is willing to pay for it through inferential beliefs on quality attributes and functional value evoked by the label. The study also reveals that natural skincare products are perceived to be more compliant with a consumer’s beliefs/attitudes relating to environmental protection and animal protection, which positively influences the propensity of a consumer towards buying the product and paying a high price for it by increasing the perceived functional and hedonic values associated with the natural cosmetic product.

Published: September 2022

We would like to point out that the formula for the cumulative distribution given in Coelho-Barros et al. (2017) and a similar version of it given in Usman et al. (2021) are not cumulative distribution functions as these functions do not satisfy the one or more necessary and sufﬁcient conditions for a function to be a cumulative distribution function. We would also like to mention that formulas for the cumulative distribution functions of product and ratio of two independent Pareto and Exponential random variables given by Obeid and Kadry (2022) are not cumulative distribution functions either. We do not believe that these formulas can be ﬁxed to be cumulative distribution functions. In this short article, we provide mathematical justiﬁcation in support of these claims.

Authors: Mingliyang Yang , Jisheng Wang , Wenjun Meng , Shoucheng Wang
Published: September 2022

The wind power tower is sensitive to wind loads with high aspect ratio. The failure characteristics and failure mechanism of the wind turbine tower structure are analyzed under the extreme climate conditions. Based on the principle of tuned mass damper theory, the suspension damper application in wind turbine tower structure is designed. The appropriate typhoon wind speed spectrum is selected. With the finite element software, the 3D model for tower structure is established and the control effect of the damper structure is analyzed. The maximum displacement and acceleration of the structure under extreme climatic conditions are greatly reduced after the suspension tuned mass damper being given. The efficiency of vibration reduction is 80.26% and 54% respectively. The results show that the response of displacement and acceleration for the damper are obviously decreased, which is beneficial to the safety of the tower structure under the extreme climate condition.

Method based on support vector machine and sequential backward selection for seismic liquefaction potential evaluation
Authors: Jianping Li , Runrun Dong , Jiansheng Wang , Ling Chen
Published: September 2022

In the paper, the support vector machine (SVM) is utilized to evaluate the earthquake-induced site liquefaction potential, and an optimization algorithm based on cross validation and sequential backward selection(SBS) is proposed to improve the generalization ability of the classifier for seismic liquefaction potential evaluation(SLPE). Usually, the accuracy of SLPE using the SVM varies greatly when the training dataset and test dataset change, so the classifier is not reliable enough in practice. Because cross validation is more convincing for evaluating the classifier performance in machine learning, the algorithm in the paper tries to reduce the maximum error of cross validation through adopting SBS to determine the input variables of the SVM. The performance of the classifier is assessed by the area under the curve (AUC) on the basis of confusion matrix. As shown by data validation, the algorithm can reduce the maximum error of cross validation and the variation of accuracy in SLPE while maintaining good performance of the classifier. In conclusion, a method that can improve the reliability of SVMs for classification in SLPE is put forward in the paper.

Authors: Tang Jingfan , Fei Wei , Zhang Min , Jiang Ming , Wang Qicheng
Published: September 2022

Aimed at the characteristic of the software defined network (SDN), several green routing algorithms are proposed. However, there are many drawbacks consisted in the existing algorithms. Therefore, we propose a self-adaptive energy saving routing algorithm (LAR) which is based on residual bandwidth of links and SDN. The proposed algorithm makes the link utilization which is changing in real time as the link cost. It would obtain the topology information and link status to optimize and prune the topology for reducing the computing time of routing algorithm before selecting routing path. After a period of time, the incoming flows will automatically be gathered in heavily-loaded links. The links without traffic will be switched off while the whole network connectivity and QoS are guaranteed. Simulation results show that it is possible to reduce considerable energy consumption during off-peak hours and link energy saving can be up to 55%. And, the algorithm has the distinct advantage in terms of complexity and network performance comparing related schemes.

Published: September 2022

Objectives: The present study aimed to investigate the effect of preheating on the color stability and surface roughness of a silorane-based composite resin.
Materials and Methods: A total of 44 Filtek P90 composite resin disks, (10mm×1mm), were fabricated using plastic molds and were divided into two groups. In group 2, the composite resin syringes were placed in a thermostatically controlled water bath at 55‒60°C before preparing the disks. After polishing the samples with silicon carbide papers, they were stored in distilled water for 48 hours. Roughness and color parameters were then measured in two stages: immediately after retrieval from distilled water and after 40 days of storage in tea solution. Finally, the differences in roughness and color parameters were recorded. Independent sample t-test and regression analysis were used at a significance level of P<0.05.
Results: Based on the findings of the present study, there was no significant difference among the mean ∆E values (P=0.4); however, a significant difference in mean surface roughness (P=0.01) was found between the two groups. Regression analysis showed a significant relationship between the study groups in terms of surface roughness and ΔE values​ (preheated: r2 = 0.73; non-preheated: r2= 0.76).
Conclusion: Filtek P90 silorane-base composite showed ΔE>3.3 and surface roughness above 0.2µ under preheated and non-preheated conditions and discoloration increased following preheating.

Materials and methods: In this randomized controlled clinical trial, 66 pregnant women in 24 to 28 weeks were randomly divided into two groups of intervention (33 participants) and control (33 participants). At the beginning of the study, both groups completed the questionnaires of demographic information and pandemic related pregnancy test. Then, the intervention was performed in 3 sessions with the interval of one week, in the form of individual counseling by BELIFE method for the experimental group. The control group received only the routine services of the centers. The post-test was performed two weeks after the last consultation session for both groups. Data were analyzed using Stata-13 software. Significance level was considered 0.05.
Results: The experimental and control groups were almost homogeneous in terms of quantitative and qualitative demographic variables. Total mean and standard deviation of stress score, before and after the intervention in the experimental group, were 40.27 ± 12.65 and 41.71 ± 1.74, respectively. These numbers in the control group were 33.84 ± 13.08 and 43.84 ± 1.69. Comparing the two groups in terms of stress score which was done after the intervention showed that although the stress score in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group, this difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.39).
Conclusion: The results of this study show that although individual counseling for pregnant women was able to reduce the mean scores of stress of Covid-19 in the experimental group, this difference was not statistically significant. Therefore, although the BELIFE individual counseling method for pregnant women, who naturally suffer from pregnancy stress, is an acceptable way to reduce their stress, it is recommended to plan and implement early and more effective interventions for these women because the course of stress is severe in them and has an upward trend during Covid-19 pandemic.

Objective: Umbilical cord hematoma and uterine torsion are extremely rare complications in pregnancy. However, these should not be neglected in clinical practice in condition of abnormal fetal heart monitoring without others suspects. We hereby report rare case of umbilical cord hematoma and uterine torsion as well as review the literature. Through this report, we aim to mention on an available tool to investigate spontaneous umbilical cord hematoma on fetal well-being in such a case.
Case report: A women aged 35 years old (G1P0) admitted to our hospital for term gestation with uncomplicated pregnancy, except large uterine fibroid accompanied with cervical pessary. Then, an uncommon complication of umbilical cord hematoma was revealed accidentally upon cesarean section. Particularly, this dramatic event was happened along with an asymptomatic uterine torsion noticed at the same time. Preoperative diagnosis of two rare complications was missed, hence, we extracted timely baby based on another modality of management, computerized cardiotocography.
Conclusion: Umbilical cord hematoma along with uterine torsion is difficult to diagnosis due to its rarity. Moreover, no available tool could investigate umbilical cord hematoma prior to delivery. Surveillance on fetal heart rate monitoring may be helpful in this situation.

Youth in sport programs are not only gaining skills in sport techniques but also observing and learning ethical attitudes such as how to treat others in competition or whether to play in accordance with sport rules. Youth sport coaches influence youth directly through the provision of guidance and feedback and indirectly through the behaviors they model and attitudes they reflect. In the sport context, gamesmanship is any in-game misconducts that stay within the boundaries of the rules but still are ethically controversial and may lead to a competitive advantage. In this study, the gamesmanship beliefs of youth sport coaches across multiple sport disciplines were analyzed. The participants of this study were 109 youth sport coaches of a variety of sports. A 20-question gamesmanship beliefs survey was used in data collection for this study in which youth sport coaches were asked to determine their opinion of the identified conduct and respond with a rating on a 4-point Likert scale. Responses of youth sport coaches in this study suggest that only a small portion of them are inclined to instruct players to act in a way that utilizes gamesmanship practices. This study’s examination of whether formal coaching training or years of coaching experience influence attitudes toward gamesmanship found that there appeared to be little effect on coaches’ attitudes. As gamesmanship situations are typically present in the youth sport context, this study provides value in understanding how youth sport coaches think about gamesmanship and their awareness of ethical concerns.

Synergism is a natural and important part of the organization. It is the phenomenon of synergy, which reinforces the interactions between the organization’s elements. In nowadays approach to the management of the organization, the synergism is treated primarily as the force that improves the quality and efficiency of personnel. This is explicit in the teamwork where it allows to achieve extra energy through collaboration and synchronization. The human and organization capital is, what generates this energy and which constitutes the added value. This allows to take a statement that synergism is the efficiency factor, balancing activities in the organization based on the complementary and reinforcing interactions between individuals, teams, staff management and the concomitant processes and phenomena.

Published: September 2022

Background: The present study investigated the polymorphism in β-lactoglobulin and α-lactalbumin genes in native Malabari and Attappady black breeds in comparison with Saanen Malabari crossbred goats. The polymorphisms in these proteins and their coding genes were reported to be associated with various dairy traits in ruminants. Methods: Polymorphism detection was carried out by polymerase chain reaction based restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Chi-square analysis was performed to analyse the status of each population. Association of β-lactoglobulin with dairy traits was performed with univariate analysis of variation. Sanger’s sequencing of 426 bp fragment of caprine β-LG gene was performed commercially and sequences were compared with those of other breeds of various geographical areas. Result: It was proved that all three populations under study observed Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with respect to b-lactoglobulin locus. Statistical analysis revealed significant relationship of β-lactoglobulin with peak milk yield in Malabari population studied. Sequence analysis of exon 7 and 3' flanking region revealed a novel SNP at (C to A transversion) at 7062 position in the native breeds under study. Phylogenetic tree construction and analysis revealed the native Malabari and Attappady black to different clades. The caprine α-LA gene appeared to be monomorphic in all the three population under study. Genetic selection utilizing the association of β-lactoglobulin with peak yield could be used to improve the genetic makeup of goats for high production potential.
