Published: June 2021

Background: Prenatal depression is associated with an increased risk of physical, physiological, cardiovascular, and psychological diseases for mothers and future newborns. Prenatal depression and depressive symptoms could have negative effects on the cognitive, emotional, social, and behavioral development of children.Objective: This study aimed to examine the influence of exercise during pregnancy on the prevalence of prenatal depression and depressive symptoms in the scientific literature.Data Sources: A search was carried out examining different online databases up to November 2020.Methods of Study Selection: A systematic review with random effects meta-analysis was performed. Only randomized controlled trials published in English or Spanish with pregnant populations and interventions with exercise programs carried out during pregnancy were included. The scores obtained by the tools that measured the emotional state and depressive symptoms as well as the number and percentage of depressed women of the study groups were analyzed.Tabulation, Integration, and Results: We analyzed 15 studies and found a negative association between moderate exercise during pregnancy and prenatal depression (ES = −0.36, 95% CI = −0.58, −13, I2 = 80.2%, Pheterogeneity = 0.001). In addition, the studies also showed that women who were inactive during pregnancy had a 16% higher probability of suffering prenatal depression [RR = 0.84 (95% IC = 0.74, 0.96) I2 = 61.9%, Pheterogeneity = 0.010].Conclusion: Supervised exercise during pregnancy may be useful for the prevention and reduction of prenatal depression and depressive symptoms.Systematic Review Registration: Registered in PROSPERO (Registration No. CRD42020164819).

Published: June 2021

Background: Post-exercise hypotension (PEH) is an important tool in the daily management of patients with hypertension. Varying the exercise parameters is likely to change the blood pressure (BP) response following a bout of exercise. In recent years, high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) has gained significant popularity in exercise-based prevention and rehabilitation of clinical populations. Yet, to date, it is not known whether a single session of HIIE maximizes PEH more than a bout of moderate-intensity continuous exercise (MICE).Objective: To compare the effect of HIIE vs. MICE on PEH by means of a systematic review and meta-analysis.Methods: A systematic search in the electronic databases MEDLINE, Embase, and SPORTDiscus was conducted from the earliest date available until February 24, 2020. Randomized clinical trials comparing the transient effect of a single bout of HIIE to MICE on office and/or ambulatory BP in humans (≥18 years) were included. Data were pooled using random effects models with summary data reported as weighted means and 95% confidence interval (CIs).Results: Data from 14 trials were included, involving 18 comparisons between HIIE and MICE and 276 (193 males) participants. The immediate effects, measured as office BP at 30- and 60-min post-exercise, was similar for a bout of HIIE and MICE (p &gt; 0.05 for systolic and diastolic BP). However, HIIE elicited a more pronounced BP reduction than MICE [(−5.3 mmHg (−7.3 to −3.3)/ −1.63 mmHg (−3.00 to −0.26)] during the subsequent hours of ambulatory daytime monitoring. No differences were observed for ambulatory nighttime BP (p &gt; 0.05).Conclusion: HIIE promoted a larger PEH than MICE on ambulatory daytime BP. However, the number of studies was low, patients were mostly young to middle-aged individuals, and only a few studies included patients with hypertension. Therefore, there is a need for studies that involve older individuals with hypertension and use ambulatory BP monitoring to confirm HIIE's superiority as a safe BP lowering intervention in today's clinical practice.Systematic Review Registration: PROSPERO (registration number: CRD42020171640).

Authors: Chen Yan , Zhu Li-jun , Fang Zheng-mei , Wu Nan , Du Meng-xue , Jiang Min-min , Wang Jing , Yao Ying-shui , Zhou Cheng-chao 
Published: June 2021

Objective: To investigate the prevalence of suicidal ideation among the first batch of students returning to a college during the COVID-19 epidemic, and to explore the correlation of suicidal ideation with family characteristics and social support.Methods: A cluster sampling survey with a self-designed questionnaire was conducted among the first batch of students returning to a college in Wuhu, China. The Positive and Negative Suicidal ideation (PANSI) and Social Support Scale (SSRS) were used to define students' suicidal ideation and social support, respectively. The influence of family characteristics and social support on the students' suicidal ideation was investigated using multivariate unconditional logistic regression analysis.Results: Two thousand seven hundred valid questionnaires were collected, including 673 males (24.9%) and 2,027 females (75.1%), in this study. A total of 146 students (5.4%) showed suicidal ideation. Male respondents reported higher rates (7.9%) than females (4.6%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that a higher risk level of residence before returning to school and lower objective support were the risk factors for suicidal ideation in males. In contrast, a higher level of maternal education, a poorer relationship with the mother, and lower scores for subjective support and support availability had significant effects on females' suicidal ideation.Limitations: This is a cross-sectional study, and lacks comparison to the time point unaffected by COVID-19. Moreover, it was limited by COVID-19 epidemic prevention and control restrictions, and the differences in returning to school in different regions. Only one college was investigated in this study, and all of the respondents were sophomores, so there may be some limitations in the representativeness of the sample and extrapolation of the results.Conclusion: Family characteristics and social support have had an important influence on suicidal ideation among students returning to school during the COVID-19 epidemic. Some gender differences were identified. Targeted interventions are needed for early prevention and control.

Published: June 2021

Introduction: Continued evaluation of Transition Care Programs (TCP) is essential to improving older adults' outcomes and can guide which older adults may benefit from undertaking TCP. The aim of this study was to audit a transition care service to identify the association between the characteristics of older adults undertaking a facility-based TCP and (i) discharge destination and (ii) functional improvement.Materials and methods: An audit (n = 169) of older adults aged 60 years and above who completed a facility-based TCP in Australia was conducted. Outcomes audited were performance of activities of daily living (ADL) measured using the Modified Barthel Index (MBI) and discharge destination. Data were analyzed using logistic regression and linear mixed modeling.Results: Older adults [mean age 84.2 (±8.3) years] had a median TCP stay of 38 days. Fifty-four older adults (32.0%) were discharged home, 20 (11.8%) were readmitted to hospital and 93 (55%) were admitted to permanent residential aged care. Having no cognitive impairment [OR = 0.41 (95% CI 0.18-0.93)], being independent with ADL at admission [OR = 0.41 (95% CI 0.16-1.00)] and a pre-planned team goal of home discharge [OR = 24.98 (95% CI 5.47-114.15)] was significantly associated with discharge home. Cases discharged home showed greater improvement in functional ability [MBI 21.3 points (95% CI 17.0-25.6)] compared to cases discharged to other destinations [MBI 9.6 points (95% CI 6.5-12.7)].Conclusion: Auditing a facility-based TCP identified that older adults who were independent in ADL and had good cognitive levels were more likely to be discharged home. Older adults with cognitive impairment also made clinically significant functional improvements.

Published: June 2021

Background and Objectives: Surgical repair of hiatal and paraesophageal hernia is widely accepted for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux symptoms. The respiratory benefit of this surgery is less clear. The objective of this review is to quantify the benefit to pulmonary function and subjective dyspnea of paraesophageal hernia repair with the aim of refining the indications and contraindications for elective paraesophageal hernia repair.Methods: Articles were gathered from systematic searches of the Medline Complete Database via the Creighton University Health Sciences Library literature search services. Publications with both pre and postoperative pulmonary function data or both pre and postoperative subjective dyspnea data with regards to surgical paraesophageal hernia repair were included.Results: Six studies were included in this review. The majority of studies in this review show improvement in pulmonary function postoperatively with regards to FEV1, FVC, and VC when stratified by % intrathoracic stomach (ITS), particularly in groups &gt;50% ITS. No significant change was seen in postoperative DLCO or FEV1/FVC.Conclusion: Paraesophageal hernia repair has shown to improve pulmonary function both objectively and subjectively. This review was limited by the paucity of literature on the subject as well as the lack of a standardized method for measurement of %ITS.

In the present study Mentha arvensis medaited Magnesium oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by novel green route followed by advanced characterization via XRD, FTIR, UV, SEM, TEM, DLS and TGA. The mean grain size of 32.4 nm and crystallite fcc morphology were confirmed by X-ray diffractive analysis. Scanning and Transmission electron microscopy analysis revealed the spherical and elliptical morphologies of the biosynthesized nanoparticles. Particle surface charge of −16.1 mV were determined by zeta potential and zeta size of 30–120 nm via dynamic light scattering method. Fourier transform spectroscopic analysis revealed the possible involvement of functional groups in the plant extract in reduction of Mg2+ ions to Mg0. Furthermore, the antioxidant, anti-Alzheimer, anti-cancer, and anti-H. pylori activities were performed. The results revealed that MgO-NPs has significant anti-H. pyloric potential by giving ZOI of 17.19 ± 0.83 mm against Helicobacter felis followed by Helicobacter suis. MgO-NPs inhibited protein kinase enzyme up to 12.44 ± 0.72% at 5 mg/mL and thus showed eminent anticancer activity. Significant free radicals scavenging and hemocompatability was also shown by MgO-NPs. MgO-NPs also displayed good inhibition potential against Hela cell lines with maximum inhibition of 49.49 ± 1.18 at 400 µg/mL. Owing to ecofriendly synthesis, non-toxic and biocompatible nature, Mentha arvensis synthesized MgO-NPs can be used as potent antimicrobial agent in therapeutic applications.
Programa de intervención sustentado en el aprendizaje estratégico para orientar el proceso de composición escrita en estudiantes de educación superior
Authors: Alida Flores Carmen 
Published: June 2021

El desconocimiento metacognitivo que los estudiantes del nivel superior demuestran para componer un texto escrito constituyó el problema central en esta investigación. De allí que se haya propuesto un programa de intervención sustentado en el aprendizaje estratégico para orientar el proceso de composición escrita. La metodología estuvo basada en un diseño de investigación de campo de carácter descriptivo e interpretativo, apoyada, principalmente, en la metodología cualitativa y, complementada, con el enfoque cuantitativo de investigación. Se aplicó un cuestionario y una entrevista en profundidad a los sujetos de la investigación. Los resultados demostraron que los estudiantes abordados solo poseían habilidades lingüísticas de tipo léxico – semántico y sintáctico de su lengua, pero carecían de habilidades estratégicas que les impedían introducirse a niveles profundos de la escritura. Este hallazgo permitió demostrar la importancia de conocer las debilidades o carencias que poseen los estudiantes a fin de diseñar estrategias adaptadas a sus necesidades

The study aimed at finding out the family size influence on students’ attitude and performance in Literature - in -English. Self-structured questionnaires were drawn to elicit information from 320 SS2 Students who were randomly selected from 8 secondary schools. The questionnaires were duly completed by the respondents from two local government areas in Ondo State. Only 317 respondents filled their questionnaires completely. The questionnaire comprised two sections. Section A consisted of respondents demographic status which include the name of school, class, sex, family size and position in the family while section B dealt with questionnaire on students’ attitude in literature in English.
Data collected were subjected to frequency counts and simple percentage. Findings showed that percentage of students from 1-2 family size was 5.99%, that of 3-4 family size was 38.8% while that of 5-6 family size was 28.8% the family size of 7-8 was 21.6% while the family size of 9-10 was 5.99%. The implication was that the families having 3- 10 children stand the risk of inadequate care in terms of provision of essential academic materials and adequate monitoring which could have influence on the attitude and performance of secondary school students in Literature - in -English.

Authors: Bukalski Sławomir 
Published: June 2021

The question of marital dialogue and relationship with God in the lives of Luigi and Maria Quattrocchi and Louis and Zelia Martin is the main research problem addressed in this paper. Both married couples were the first to be beatified and canonised in the history of the Catholic Church. The marital relationship is here approached from a psychological perspective while the relationship with God is analysed from a theological perspective.
In order to study the aforementioned research problem, the author analyses letters or diaries of the saint couples and testimonies of their family members and friends. Dialogue with another human being (a spouse) and dialogue with God allowed them to pursue holiness in a consistent and conscious way.

Published: June 2021

From the strains of lactic acid bacterium in the Laboratory of Microbiology, Ho Chi Minh City Universityof Education, 03 of those strains with activated probiotic have been chosen: Lactobacillus agillis (B), Lactobacillus salivarius (N4), Lactobacillus acidophilus (L2). These strains of bacteria have high lactic acid production capacity, strong antagonistic activity, and wide antibacterial spectrum. Specially, they have strongresistance to two bacterial strains causing digestive disorder in pigs such as E.coli and Samonella choleraesuis which resist the four important types of antibiosis including Neomycin (Ne), Nalidixid acid (Ng), Kanamycin (Kn) and Gentamycin (Ge). The optimal conditions for their receiving biomass are: Tomato medium with temperature: 30 - 40oC; Initial pH: 5,5 -6,5; Yeast extract: 1,0 - 2,0%; Saccaroza: 1,0 - 2,0%; The optimal time for receiving biomass is from 24 - 36 hours. On this basis, the biomass of three lactic bacterial strains were studied and used to produce probiotic products for preventing and treating the digestive disorder in pigs.

Published: June 2021

ABSTRACT
Microscopy is an essential tool in many fields of science. However, because of costs and fragility, the usage of microscopes is limited in classroom settings and nearly absent at home. In this article we present the construction of a microscope made of LEGO® bricks and low-cost, easily available lenses. We demonstrate that the obtained magnification and resolution are sufficient to resolve micrometer-sized objects and propose a series of experiments that explore various biophysical principles. Finally, a study with students in the age range of 9 to 13 y shows that the understanding of microscopy increases significantly after working with the LEGO microscope.
Biografie delle icone sportive
Authors: Ciocca Fabrizio 
Published: June 2021

Nel mondo dello sport, ed in particolare in quello del calcio, da alcuni anni hanno acquisito sempre più importanza le biografie, genere letterario che solitamente viene invece associato alle storie di personaggi politici e storici piuttosto che alle vite di grandi campioni sportivi. In questo articolo vengono analizzate le biografie ufficiali di quattro leggende del calcio, autentiche icone planetarie, quali quella di George Best, Johann Cruyff, Diego Armando Maradona e Francesco Totti. Attraverso la comparazione di alcuni episodi comuni (i primi calci, l’esordio nel professionismo, il passaggio da “semplice” calciatore a fenomeno globale) si è cercato di comprendere se dall’analisi delle singole biografie è possibile rintracciare uno “schema narrativo” che cerca di soddisfare le aspettative del lettore e ne rafforzi il rapporto di identificazione con il proprio idolo.
A Three-Phase Sensitivity-Based Approach for Smooth Line-Switching in Islanded Networks
Authors: Pompodakis Evangelos , Kryonidis Georgios C. , Alexiadis Minas 
Published: June 2021

<p>This paper deals with a new smooth line-switching method that facilitates the network reconfiguration of islanded networks. Its distinct features include the ability to handle network asymmetries and to minimize the line current during the switching action. This is attained by developing a three-phase sensitivity-based method to determine the operating set-points of distributed generators (DGs) that minimize the current of the candidate line participating in the switching action. These set-points correspond to the positive-sequence powers as well as the negative- and zero-sequence currents of DGs. Furthermore, the network constraints such as voltage limits and power limits of DGs are always satisfied. Simulations are performed in a balanced 33-bus islanded network as well as in the unbalanced IEEE 8500-node network to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. </p>

Published: June 2021

Мета статті – аналіз водних ресурсів України та з’ясування можливості їх використання для отримання «зеленого» водню. Розгортання сучасних водневих технологій для потреб енергетики України стає важливим напрямком. Застосування водню дасть значні переваги для енергетичної системи України, навколишнього середовища та бізнесу. Потенційно можливий обсяг виробництва «зеленого» водню в Україні за допомогою електролізу розраховано за результатами проведених наукових досліджень потенціалу генерації електроенергії вітро- та фотоелектричними станціями. Для розрахунку потенційно можливого обсягу виробництва «зеленого» водню за допомогою електролізу передбачено питоме споживання електроенергії 4,5 кВт∙год / нм3 Н2. Потенціал середньорічного виробітку «зеленого» водню на території України становить 505 132 млн нм3. Електроліз води на даний момент вважається найоптимальнішою технологією для отримання стійкого водню. Для виробництва 1 нм3 Н2 використовується 1,5–2,0 л води, тобто для використання середньорічного потенціалу «зеленого» водню (505 132 млн нм3) потрібно 757,7 млн м3 води. Прогнозоване до 2030 року зменшення втрат води за рахунок удосконалення технологічних процесів підйому, виробництва й транспортування води в результаті впровадження енергоефективних технологій, дозволяє на 70 % задовольнити потребу у воді для використання всього наявного середньорічного потенціалу виробництва «зеленого» водню (518 млн м3). Аналіз запасів нормативно очищених та нормативно чистих без очистки стічних вод (4 473 млн м3) показав перевищення в 6 разів потреби у воді для реалізації всього потенціалу «зеленого» водню. Для виробництва водню також може бути використана морська вода. Отже, наявні водні ресурси України є цілком достатніми для повної реалізації потенціалу виробництва «зеленого» водню без збільшення водозабору. Бібл. 18, табл. 1, рис. 5.
