Background
Adults with type 2 diabetes may experience health benefits, including glycemic control and weight loss, from following a very low–carbohydrate, ketogenic (VLC) diet. However, it is unclear which ancillary strategies may enhance these effects.

Objective
This pilot study aims to estimate the effect sizes of 3 intervention enhancement strategies (text messages, gifts, and breath vs urine ketone self-monitoring) that may improve outcomes of a 12-month web-based ad libitum VLC diet and lifestyle intervention for adults with type 2 diabetes. The primary intervention also included other components to improve adherence and well-being, including positive affect and mindfulness as well as coaching.

Methods
Overweight or obese adults (n=44; BMI 25-45 kg/m2) with type 2 diabetes (glycated hemoglobin [HbA1c] ≥6.5%), who had been prescribed either no glucose-lowering medications or metformin alone, participated in a 12-month web-based intervention. Using a 2×2×2 randomized factorial design, we compared 3 enhancement strategies: (1) near-daily text messages about the intervention’s recommended behaviors (texts n=22 vs no texts n=22), (2) mailed gifts of diet-relevant foods and cookbooks (6 rounds of mailed gifts n=21 vs no gifts n=23), and (3) urine- or breath-based ketone self-monitoring (urine n=21 vs breath n=23). We assessed HbA1c and weight at baseline and at 4, 8, and 12 months. We evaluated whether each strategy exerted a differential impact on HbA1c and weight at 12 months against an a priori threshold of Cohen d of 0.5 or greater.

Results
We retained 73% (32/44) of the participants at 12 months. The intervention, across all conditions, led to improvements in glucose control and reductions in body weight at the 12-month follow-up. In intent-to-treat (ITT) analyses, the mean HbA1c reduction was 1.0% (SD 1.6) and the mean weight reduction was 5.3% (SD 6.0), whereas among study completers, these reductions were 1.2% (SD 1.7) and 6.3% (SD 6.4), respectively, all with a P value of less than .001. In ITT analyses, no enhancement strategy met the effect size threshold. Considering only study completers, 2 strategies showed a differential effect size of at least a d value of 0.5 or greater

Conclusions
Text messages, gifts of food and cookbooks, and urine-based ketone self-monitoring may potentially enhance the glycemic or weight loss benefits of a web-based VLC diet and lifestyle intervention for individuals with type 2 diabetes. Future research could investigate other enhancement strategies to help create even more effective solutions for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

Evaluation of ReachOut.com, an Unstructured Digital Youth Mental Health Intervention: Prospective Cohort Study
Authors: Kahl Bianca Lorraine , Miller Hilary May , Cairns Kathryn , Giniunas Hayley , Nicholas Mariesa 
Published: September 2020

Background
Young people experience a disproportionate burden associated with mental illness that Australia’s mental health care system is ill-equipped to handle. Despite improvements in the provision of mental health services, the rates of service utilization among young people remain suboptimal, and there are still considerable barriers to seeking help. Digital mental health services can overcome a number of barriers and connect young people requiring support; however, the evidence base of digital interventions is limited.

Objective
The aim of this study is to examine the effectiveness of a brief, self-directed, unstructured digital intervention, ReachOut.com (hereafter ReachOut), in reducing depression, anxiety, stress, and risk of suicide.

Methods
A cohort of 1982 ReachOut users participated in a 12-week longitudinal study, with a retention rate of 81.18% (1609/1982) across the duration of the study. Participants completed web-based surveys, with outcome measures of mental health status and suicide risk assessed at 3 time points across the study period.

Results
The results demonstrated that over the 12-week study period, young people using ReachOut experienced modest yet significant reductions in symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress. Significant, albeit modest, reductions in the proportion of participants at high risk of suicide were also observed.

Conclusions
The findings of this research provide preliminary evidence of the promise of an unstructured digital mental health intervention, ReachOut, in alleviating symptoms of mental ill-health and promoting well-being in young people. These findings are particularly important given that digital services are not only acceptable and accessible but also have the potential to cater to the diverse mental health needs of young people at scale, in a way that other services cannot.

ESTIMATING ATMOSPHERIC CARBON DIOXIDE EMISSIONS THRESHOLD FOR NIGERIA: A GUIDE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY
Authors: Jibrilla Aliyu Alhaji 
Published: September 2020

This study empirically evaluates whether Green House Gases (GHGs) significantly increase with the rising population and urban growth in Nigeria. In addition, the study examine whether the energy demand also influences Nigerian contribution of global pollution emissions. The results of the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) cointegration test indicated long-run and stable relationships among the variables. For affluence, we find evidence that, in the long run, domestic per capita income significantly increases carbon dioxide emissions and then falls after a certain extreme point, providing evidence of an inverted EKC hypothesis in Nigeria. The EKC finding was further supported by appropriate inverted U test. The results also demonstrated that both urbanisation and population change do not have a long term effect on emissions; although urbanisation seems to significantly raise emissions in the short-run. Energy demand has been found to have a significantly positive elasticity effect on carbon dioxide emissions both in the long- and short-run. The short-run Granger causality results indicate that, all variables make a short-run adjustment to correct any deviation from the long-run equilibrium. In addition, analysis of the error correction models reveals that all of the variables contribute to their stable long-run relationship.

Authors: Tao Yuan , Zhang Wei , Wang Feng-shou 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
The formulation of gypsum foaming agents using alkyl polyglucosides (APG) as main surfactant was studied. The foaming behavior of the foam compound system and the stability of the foam were determined by experiments. The foaming property of APGs with various carbon chain lengths and of APGs in mixtures with other surfactants, such as cocoamidopropyl betaine (CAB), sodium lauryl amphoacetate (SLA) and sodium alcohol ether sulphate (AES) was investigated. The influence of some polymers used as foam stabilizers, such as hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), polyethylene glycol (PEG), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was also examined. Foaming times, foaming stability and bleeding ratio change were tested in order to investigate the properties of foaming and foam stability. Results indicated that the best foam performance was obtained by the composition based on APGs mixed with SLA and PVA. The optimal condition was as following: m(APG0810): m(APG1214): m(SLA) = 4: 1: 2, and PVA accounted for 10% (w/w) of total. After 1 minute, the foam multiplier was 4.35. Due to the improved mix system, it remained at 3.65 even after 15 min, with a mass fraction of 0.2%, a stirring speed of 1800 rpm and a stirring time of 3 min.
Cationic Bola Form Metallosurfactants Based on Isothiouronium, Synthesis and Anti-Microbial Activity
Authors: Ismail Dina A. , Ahmed Hend M. , Ismail Abdala R. , Ahmad Sahar M. 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
Two series of well-defined dimeric metallo-bolaamphiphiles (bola surfactants) with the coordinated metal ions (Cu, Co, Zn) were prepared. These oligomeric surfactants consist of simple monomeric cationic surfactant fragments which are coupled via the hydrophilic ammonium chloride head groups by C6 and C12 spacer groups of different lengths. FTIR and 1HNMR identification techniques confirmed the obtained products. Measurements of surface tensions showed that the synthesized Bola amphiphiles have the desired, relatively low critical micelle formation concentrations (CMC). Bola amphiphiles with long spacer groups (C12) have a pronounced surface activity. The properties of these cationic surfactant oligomers in aqueous solution such as micellization and surface activity were discussed in relation to spacer group. In addition, the synthesized compounds were examined for their anti-microbial activity using the agar diffusion technique.

Published: September 2020

Introduction: Treatment of celiac disease is a strict life-long gluten-free diet (GFD). The GFD is complex, and counseling by a dietitian is essential. The number of new referrals for GFD education has increased. We studied the feasibility of GFD teaching using distributed education. Methods: The IWK Health Center in Halifax is the only tertiary-care pediatric hospital in the 3 Maritime provinces with GFD experienced dietitians. Families travel long distances to attend teaching sessions. Families outside the Halifax area were offered to participate in the 2.5-hour education sessions held once a month via live videoconference link at their regional hospitals. All participants were surveyed with a 10-item questionnaire assessing the content and delivery and usefulness of information. Results: Over a 6-month period, 39 families attended the sessions, 21 locally and 18 at distributed sites across the Maritimes. The survey was completed by 26 participants (67%). All participants at both sites strongly agreed or agreed that their setting was good for learning and the information provided was easy to understand. There were no significant differences between the 2 groups on any individual questions in the 2 domains assessed (all P > 0.06). Conclusions: Distributed education on GFD is feasible and as effective as in person education. It affords convenience and savings to families by reducing travel costs.
