Effect of Various Intensities of Short-Term Interval Training on Oxygen Uptake Kinetics
Authors: Green Alex
Published: May 2021

Oxygen (O2) uptake kinetics reflect the rate at which an individual’s oxygen consumption (VO2) changes to meet a new metabolic demand, such as an increase or decrease in exercise intensity. O2 uptake kinetics can indicate cardiovascular and metabolic fitness and are described by the time variable, τ (tau), of the exponential equation describing the change in VO2. With training τ decreases, indicating a more rapid increase in VO2 to meet the new metabolic demand. Interval training at supramaximal (>100% VO2max) intensities has been shown to elicit similar improvements in O2 uptake kinetics to traditional endurance training. This study looked to determine the optimal intensity of interval training for eliciting improvements in O2 uptake kinetics. Fifteen recreationally active individuals (males: n=9, age = 23.3±3.3 years, VO2max = 44.2±6.5 ml O2•min-1•kg-1; females: n=6, age = 21.5±0.7 years, VO2max = 39.7±5.4 ml O2•min-1•kg-1) participated in 12 training sessions over 4 weeks. To measure O2 uptake kinetics subjects completed three step transitions from loadless (~25W) to low work-rate (~80W) cycling, prior and following training. Each subject was randomly assigned to one of three intensities - high-intensity interval training (HIIT ~120% VO2max), moderate-intensity interval training (MIIT ~90% VO2max), and low-intensity interval training (LIIT ~65% VO2max). Each session consisted of 8-12 intervals of 1-minute duration with 1-minute recovery on a stationary bicycle at the prescribed relative intensity. No significant differences between groups were observed in changes in τ (Δτ: LIIT: 3.1±8.3s; MIIT: -0.59±12.4s; HIIT: 6.2±6.0s).
2. Context Sensitive Acoustic Near-Neutralization in Tongue Twisters
Authors: Brohan Anthony
Published: May 2021

Tongue twisters present an interesting problem with respect to their implication to the interactions between phonology and phonetics. Only recently, however, have the articulations produced in tongue twisters been analyzed phonetically. The research presented is a preliminary study into the so-called /s/ → /∫/ neutralization occurring in English tongue twisters. Traditionally, it was believed that tongue slips in tongue twisters resulted in complete phoneme replacement, neutralizing the contrast. (Pronouncing “seashell” as “sheashell”). More recent studies suggest a differing phonetic account, in which the resulting sound is nearly-neutralized. This study examined the segments /s/ and /∫/ near-neutralizing in differing contexts. Acoustic data was collected from one speaker eliciting eight artificial tongue twisters repeatedly in various contexts. The central band of frequency of the sounds were analyzed using Praat. A near-neutralization effect was found, that the “neutralized" segment was significantly between a /s/ and a /sh/. This effect was observed in both a forwards and backwards direction (“sheashell” & “seasell”) were both present in the data, with a noticeably stronger right-to-left effect; in accordance with cross-linguistic studies of /s/ - /sh/ neutralization. A recurrent network articulatory model is presented in the discussion, which can account for the asymmetry and context sensitivity of results. Findings move us towards a greater understanding of the greater problem of sibilant harmony across languages.

Celem niniejszego artykułu jest przedstawienie dyskursu fake newsa w konfrontacji z dyskursem newsa. Za wzorzec analizy dyskursu newsa przyjąłem teorię dyskursu Teuna van Dijka. Analiza studiów kilku przypadków fake newsa pozwoliła na wyciągnięcie wniosków dotyczących struktury fake newsa i odpowiedź na pytanie, jak jest w ogóle możliwy dyskurs fake newsa. Analiza pokazała, że warunki jego możliwości tkwią m.in. w podobieństwach strukturalnych, wspólnych wartościach informacyjnych, zmianach technologicznych w mediach i sposobach odczytywania wiadomości przez odbiorców. Zjawisko rozpowszechniania się fake newsów stwarza obecnie zagrożenie dla funkcjonowania sfery publicznej, dlatego konieczna jest edukacja medialna skoncentrowana przede wszystkim na umiejętności krytycznej analizy źródeł informacji.

Fake News as DiscourseThe purpose of this article is to present the fake news discourse in confrontation with the news discourse. For the pattern of the discourse analysis of the news, I adopted T. van Dijk’s theory of discourse. Analysis of the study of several cases of fake news allowed to draw conclusions about the structure of fake news and the answer to the question of how the fake news discourse is at all possible. The analysis showed that the conditions of its possibilities are among others in structural similarities, common news values, technological chan in the media and how recipients read messages. The phenomenon of spreading fake news now creates threat for the functioning of the public sphere. For this reason, media education should focus primarily on the ability to critically analyze sources of information.

A Comprehensive Study of Adaptive LNA Nonlinearity Compensation Methods in Direct RF Sampling Receivers
Authors: Anh Vu Ngoc , Le Hai Nam , Tham Tran Thi Hong , Kien Trinh Quang
Published: May 2021

This paper studies the effects of nonlinear distortion of Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) for the multichannel direct-RF sampling receiver (DRF). The main focus of our work is to study and compare the effectiveness of the different adaptive compensation algorithms, including the inverse-based and subtract-based Least Mean Square (LMS) algorithm with a fixed and variable step size. The models for the compensation circuits have been analytically derived. As the major improvements, the effectiveness of the compensation circuits under the ADC quantization noise effect is evaluated. The bit-error-rates (BER) in dynamic signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) scenarios are calculated. We have proposed the use of variable step-size LMS (VLMS) to shorten the convergence time and to improve the compensation effect in general.

To evaluate and compare different compensation methods, a complex Matlab model of the Ultra high frequency (UHF) DRF with 4-QPSK channels was implemented. The simulation results show that all compensation methods significantly improve the receiver performance, with the convergence time of the VLMS algorithm does not exceed 5.104 samples, the adjacent channel power ratios (ACPR) are reduced more than 30 dBc, and the BERs decrease by 2­–3 orders of magnitude, compared with the non-compensated results. The simulation results also indicate that the subtraction method in general has better performance than the inversion method.

A 68-year-old woman was admitted to our Internal Medicine Unit for severe hyponatremia and new onset resistant hypertension for two weeks. She also complained of nausea, weakness and paresthesia of the limbs in the previous 4 days. Several diagnostic tests were performed (blood, hormonal and urinary tests, echocardiography, ECG, renal arteries Doppler-US, total body CT scan), showing only severe hyponatremia, mild hypokalemia and mild hypochloremia. Hypertension was treated with isosorbide and doxazosin, whereas in the suspect of a Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone Secretion (SIADH), hyponatremia was treated with hypertonic saline solution with progressive normalization of serum sodium levels. Despite improvement in the presenting symptoms, after 10 days the neurological scenario worsened, with persistence of weakness and onset of areflexia of lower limbs, constipation and urinary retention. Therefore, the patient was evaluated by a neurologist who, hypothesizing a Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS), required an EMG, which confirmed this clinical suspect. Intravenous immunoglobulins were immediately started and administered for 5 days, with partial improvement of weakness and areflexia. The patient was then transferred to a rehabilitation institute for the recovery path. We report a rare form of GBS where hypertension and SIADH, not frequent clinical features of this acute inflammatory polyneuropathy, preceded the neurological manifestation. In fact, the delay in the manifestation of the neurological pattern made harder and delayed the diagnosis. However, it is important to stress that a high clinical suspicious should rise in presence of multi-resistant hypertension with, even mild, neurological symptoms and electrolytes disturbances.

Background: Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is an autosomal recessive hemoglobinopathy containing mutant sickle cell Hemoglobin (HbS). Acute and chronic organ dysfunction, chronic hemolytic anemia, and recurrent painful episodes are the main features of sickle cell disease. There is a wide variety of neurological complications, including: headache, cognitive difficulties, seizures, visual loss, ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, transient ischemic attacks, soft neurological signs coma, altered mental status and covert or silent infarction. Moyamoya is an uncommon cerebral vasculopathy that’s also found in children with SCD. Case Presentation: Here, we reported two children diagnosed with SCD who presented with headache, recurrent ischemic strokes, seizures and cognitive decline. They showed abnormalities on different neuroimaging including: CT and /or MRI, MRA and/or CT angiography, also transcranial color coded duplex, EEG and Stanford-Binet Intelligence scales-Fifth Edition. They also showed abnormal level of protein C and protein S. They also had irregular blood transfusion and were diagnosed as Moyamoya syndrome. Conclusion: According to our findings, Moyamoya syndrome was a rare complication of SCD in children, but should be considered with proper approach, diagnosis and management.
Simulating Chalcogen Bonding Using Molecular Mechanics: A Pseudoatom Approach to Model Ebselen.
Authors: Fellowes Thomas , WHITE JONATHAN
Published: May 2021

The organoselenium compound ebselen has recently been investigated as a treatment for COVID-19, however

efforts to model ebselen in silico have been hampered by the lack of a efficient and accurate method to assess

its binding to biological macromolecules. We present here a Generalized Amber Force Field modification which

incorporates classical parameters for the selenium atom in ebselen, as well as a positively charged pseudoatom to

simulate the sigma?-hole, a quantum mechanical phenomenon that dominates the chemistry of ebselen. Our approach

is justified using an energy decomposition analysis of a number DFT optimised structures, which shows that the

?sigma-hole interaction is primarily electrostatic in origin. Finally, our model is verified by conducting MD simulations

on a number of simple complexes, as well the clinically relevant SOD1, which is known to bind to ebselen.
Radiative Contributions Dominate Plasmon Broadening for Post-Transition Metals in the Ultraviolet
Authors: Fonseca Guzman Maria , Ross Michael
Published: May 2021

We use classical electrodynamics calculations to investigate the plasmonic properties of the post-transition metals Al, Bi, Ga, In, and Sn active in the ultraviolet, focusing in particular on the material- and resonance-dependent origins of plasmon broadening. Analytic Mie theory, the modified-long wavelength approximation, and the quasistatic dipole approximation together show that radiative processes dominate plasmon dephasing and damping in small (5-25 nm radius) Al, Bi, Ga, In, and Sn spheres. For Al, Ga, In, and Sn, the radiative contribution (~0.1–0.2 eV) to the plasmon linewidth is 10-fold greater than the non-radiative contribution (0.001–0.02 eV) from the bulk dielectric function. This is significantly different than what is observed for Ag spheres, where non-radiative contributions (~0.1 eV) are the primary source of broadening up to a radius of 25 nm. Overall, these data suggest that the plasmonic properties, dephasing, and lifetimes for Al, Ga, In, and Sn —and to a lesser extent Bi— spheres are qualitatively similar. These observations have important implications for the use of these metals for ultraviolet plasmonics. The increased importance of radiative damping and dephasing processes for post-transition metals could influence the ability to harvest photons, generate hot carriers, and enhance spectroscopy in the ultraviolet while providing new opportunities for manipulating high-energy photons.

Exploring the Relationship Between Boldness, Activity, Exploration and Monoaminergic Gene Expression in Red Junglefowl Chicks

Published: May 2021

Why individuals differ in behavioral responses has received intense research attention (particularly in the context of animal personality), and has typically focused on describing variation in boldness, activity, and exploration. Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying this behavioral variation remain largely unknown. Variation in these behaviors is likely influenced by genetic differences between individuals, with genes in the monoaminergic systems commonly implicated. When examining the link between variation in boldness, activity and exploration and genes, studies have focused on different monoaminergic systems (mainly serotonergic and dopaminergic), and predominantly on mammals and passerine birds. Therefore, to replicate this general approach and examine if genes from these systems are linked to boldness, activity, and exploration, we exposed red junglefowl chicks (Gallus gallus) to behavioral assays (measuring boldness, activity, exploration) before analyzing prefrontal cortex gene expression of several dopaminergic (DRD1, DRD2) and serotonergic genes (TPH, 5HT2A, 5HT2B, 5HT2C, 5HT1B). We observed no relationships between our measured behaviors and gene expression. Together with previous studies, our results suggest that a clear link between boldness, activity and exploration and monoaminergic gene variation is lacking. We, therefore, suggest that this is due to differences among studies (e.g., methodological differences), or that the nature of the relationship between these behaviors and monoaminergic systems is more species-specific, and/or more complex than so far assumed.
Replications in Comparative Psychology
Authors: Halina Marta
Published: May 2021

In order to assess the status of replications in comparative psychology, it is important to clarify what constitutes a replicated experiment. In this paper, I adopt the Resampling Account of replication recently advanced by the philosopher Edouard Machery. I apply this account to a particular area of comparative psychology: nonhuman primate theory of mind research. Two key findings emerge from this analysis. First, under the account of replication advanced here, genuine replications are common in comparative psychology. Second, different types of replications offer different epistemic benefits to researchers. This second finding diverges from Machery’s view, but provides insight into how the Resampling Account works in practice. I conclude that community-level change is needed in order to promote a wide range of replications and their associated diversity of epistemic benefits.
Replication, Uncertainty and Progress in Comparative Cognition
Authors: Boyle Alexandria
Published: May 2021

Replications are often taken to play both epistemic and demarcating roles in science: they provide evidence about the reliability of fields’ methods and, by extension, about which fields “count” as scientific. I argue that, in a field characterized by a high degree of theoretical openness and uncertainty, like comparative cognition, replications do not sit well in these roles. Like other experiments conducted under conditions of uncertainty, replications are often equivocal and open to interpretation. As a result, they are poorly placed to deliver clear judgments about the reliability of comparative cognition’s methods or its scientific bona fides. I suggest that this should encourage us to take a broader view of both the nature of scientific progress and the role of replication in comparative cognition.

According to World Health Organization, more than 50% of infant and child deaths are related to malnutrition. This study aims to determine the relationship between parenting and family support with the nutritional status of toddlers. This study is an analytical study with a cross-sectional approach. This research was conducted at Bintang Ceria Kindergarten, Jati Agung Subdistrict, South Lampung in October-November 2019. The population in this study were all toddlers and their mothers. The inclusion criteria of this study were toddlers and mothers who were willing to be respondents, while the exclusion criteria were toddlers who came with a caregiver (non-mother). The sampling technique was a total sample of 85 toddlers. The instruments used in this study were a questionnaire on parenting styles and family support as well as measuring nutritional status using a scale and a stadiometer to use bodyweight for height. The data was collected by weighing and measuring the toddler's height, then calculating the z-score, and distributing questionnaires containing questions on parenting and family support for the mothers of the children. Data analysis used univariate analysis in the form of percentage and bivariate analysis using the Spearman test. The study found that there is a relationship between parenting styles and family support with the nutritional status of toddlers. Families need to pay attention to and fulfill the needs of balanced nutritional intake for toddlers by providing more support and attention to their toddlers.

Published: May 2021

StuntingÂ is a chronic malnutrition problem caused by inadequate nutritional intake for a long time, resulting in growth disorders in children that is height is lower than the standard age. The physical growth of children is greatly influenced by nutritional intake and activity in children. The purpose of this study was to determine the differences in sleep duration and food intake on the incidence ofÂ stuntingÂ in elementary school children. This was an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design. This research was conducted in Kecamatan Tampan Sidomulyo Timur in February-August 2019. The sample of this study was 90 elementary school children who met the inclusion criteria. The independent variables in this study were sleep duration, food intake and the dependent variable wasÂ stunting. The data collection consists of weighing, height measurement, food recall 2x24 hours to determine the level of food consumption, and interviews by filling out a modified Children's Sleep Habit Questioner (CSHQ) questionnaire. Data analysis used an independent t-test and Mann-Whitney test. The results showed that there was no difference in sleep duration betweenÂ stuntingÂ and non-stuntingÂ children (p-value=0,954) and there was a difference in energy and protein intake between stunted and non-stuntingÂ children (p-value=0,004 andÂ p-value=0,036). Children who have inadequate protein and energy have a greater risk of stunting. Further researchers need to test the difference in sleep duration between stunted and non-stunted children.

This type of descriptive-analytic research with a quantitative approach. The subjects were 300 students studying at the Bandung city university who were selected using a non-probability technique with an incidental sampling approach. The instrument used was adopted and modified from the existing public acceptance questionnaire and tested the validity and reliability of 30 subjects with r table>,361 with a significance level of 5%, with a Cronbach alpha reliability ,794. The results of the univariate analysis showed that instrumental stigma was categorized as low 99 (33%), high 201 (67%), low symbolic stigma 134 (44,7%), high 166 (55,3%), low politeness stigma 241 (80,3%) ), high 59 (19,7%) and good public acceptance of 225 (75%) and poor 75 (25%). The results of the chi-square analysis showed a significant relationship with instrumental, symbolic, and modesty stigma towards public acceptance. The higher the instrumental stigma and symbolic stigma in society, the worse the public's acceptance of covid-19. Education regarding the prevention and spread of covid-19 and the importance of mental health during the covid-19 pandemic needs to be improved so that the public is not misinformed and the perceptions about covid-19.

Esse trabalho dedica-se a narrar o percurso formativo da musicista negra Gislene Danielle e pretende contribuir com a História da Educação Musical. Procura-se registrar as influências da música e do teatro na vida da cantora, sua trajetória acadêmica, tanto quanto de que maneiras chegou à docência. As perguntas mobilizadoras deste ensaio foram: Como a artista foi apresentada aos estudos de música? Por que a professora decidiu estudar teatro? Quando e como se tornou docente? A partir da articulação entre minhas memórias e da artista, juntamente com as respostas obtidas em entrevistas concedidas pela cantora tanto em canais de televisão local quanto a mim, analisadas em cruzamento com imagens e notícias disponibilizadas na televisão, nas redes sociais e no acervo da musicista, atriz e professora, foi possível perceber a relevância das instituições públicas e privadas, organizações, congregações e, sobretudo, das redes de relacionamentos pessoais e profissionais, que, somadas a estudo e trabalho, possibilitaram.
Polifonia da fé protestante: a Música Sacra como elemento educativo em Henriqueta Rosa Fernandes Braga (1961)
Authors: Toledo Nascimento Marco Antonio , Araujo Garcez Priscila de
Published: May 2021

No campo da História da Educação, as pesquisas sobre mulheres protestantes que se destacaram a partir do trabalho que desenvolveram nas igrejas ainda são incipientes. Algumas delas, que atuaram nas mais variadas frentes, particularmente por meio da educação, ainda permanecem silenciadas e/ou invisibilizadas. Diante disso, abrimos as cortinas do palco para Henriqueta Rosa Fernandes Braga, musicista, musicóloga e professora congregacional, que teve uma trajetória expressiva na educação musical protestante. Na organização do hinário Salmos e Hinos, regência do coral, escrita de livros para a educação musical de adultos e crianças e tantas outras atribuições que exerceu dentro e fora da Igreja Evangélica Fluminense, Henriqueta legitimou-se como referência em Música Sacra no Brasil, especialmente por conta da pesquisa histórica exaustiva que empreendeu na escrita do livro Música Sacra Evangélica no Brasil (Contribuições à sua História), editado em 1961, pela Editora Kosmos. Diante do exposto, interpretar as concepções de Henriqueta sobre educação musical, na obra supramencionada, é o objetivo deste trabalho. A partir dos textos que publicou, ela desvelou a sua vinculação à música, em interlocução com outros sujeitos, o caráter educativo da hinologia aplicada nas Escolas Dominicais, o viés pedagógico da organização das músicas por temáticas, os valores puritanos de vigilância divina para a moderação dos corpos e das mentes, presentes nas letras dos hinos e o caráter formativo dos programas radiofônicos evangélicos.

Salah satu terapi non farmakologi yang digunakan yaitu terapi murottal. Studi kasus bertujuan untuk mengetahui intervensi terapi murottal Ar-Rahman 78 ayat yang mempunyai efek terapeutik menurunkan nyeri pada pasien post SC. Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode deskriptif dengan pendekatan pre test dan post test. Pemilihan sampel dengan purposive sampling dengan responden 2 orang. Pengkajian nyeri menggunakan lembar NRS sebelum dan sesudah intervensi dilanjutkan pemberian terapi murottal dan relaksasi napas dalam sehari 1x dengan durasi selama 25 menit beserta evaluasi dan secara mandiri oleh pasien apabila nyeri timbul. Terapi diberikan 2 jam setelah pasien minum obat nyeri. Hasil studi kasus menunjukkan bahwa pasien mengalami penurunan nyeri dengan rata-rata 1 poin dari skala 5 menjadi 4 setelah terapi murottal. Terapi murottal yang dikombinasikan dengan napas dalam mampu menurunkan skala nyeri pasien post SC. Hal ini terjadi karena musik dapat memproduksi zat endorphin dan bekerja pada sistim limbik dihantarkan kepada sistem saraf dan merangsang organ-organ tubuh untuk memproduksi sel-sel yang rusak akibat pembedahan sehingga nyeri berkurang. Diharapkan setiap rumah sakit memberikan terapi murottal kepada pasien post SC untuk membantu mengurangi nyeri pada luka post SC.
Innovative Teaching: A Qualitative Review of Flipped Classrooms
Authors: Fuchs Kevin
Published: May 2021

The extent and importance of web-based learning in higher education have increased tremendously in the last decade, triggered by new educational technologies and pedagogical approaches. Higher education lecturing has traditionally followed a teacher-centered approach, with lecturers giving classes in the classroom and students performing out-of-class activities. Under this traditional approach, the main actor in the teaching-learning process is the lecturer, while students play a passive role. The flipped classroom emphasizes the role of the student in the center of the learning environment and facilities an active learning pedagogy. This paper reviews the most recent case studies related to the flipped classroom approach in order to provide educators guidelines on the best practices, traits, and merits of the flipped classroom. A total of 22 case studies were included in this qualitative review of the flipped classroom. The methodological inquiry followed the PRISMA flow diagram that identified an initial pool of 3,764 articles. Upon identification of relevant case studies (n=22), a five-point Likert-type sentiment rating was assigned as the basis to structure the discussion. The rating was based on the students’ perceptions of the flipped classrooms as investigated in the articles. The assessment confirms that the majority of students have a positive perception of this learning pedagogy. However, there are concerns about increased workload for students, ambiguity in expected learning outcomes, and an initial barrier to actively contribute; these are the primary implications of this review.

Obtained results suggested that the risk of economic crisis under the title of economic and political risks was the most important risk factor.
Best Practices & Qualities of Recreational Dementia Friendly Reading Materials
Authors: Laskosky Jennifer
Published: May 2021

Dementia friendly communities have been gaining increased recognition over the years. These communities play a large role in creating opportunities and welcoming spaces for people with dementia. The creation of dementia friendly communities has led to increased development in meaningful dementia friendly experiences including public outings, accessible services, and the creation of dementia friendly reading groups. Despite the effects of dementia, many people with dementia retain their ability to read, even if it is as a lower level. However, reading has remained largely ignored as a meaningful experience for people with dementia. Additionally, there are few resources regarding the creation of dementia friendly reading materials and what is required in order for them to be effective. As a result, there is a lack of appropriate and mature reading materials available for people with dementia. The goal of this study is to determine the necessary qualities of recreational dementia friendly reading materials, through a literature review and case study, and provide best practices for the development of future dementia friendly reading materials. There is a notable lack of research conducted in the library and information studies field, and related fields, regarding recreational dementia friendly reading materials. This study will assist in filling in a gap in the literature and help to establish basic criteria for creating appropriate dementia friendly reading materials.
