The Birth Experience of Women in the Czech Prison System
Authors: Lochmannová Alena , Kolář Ondřej , Martin Colin R. 
Published: July 2024

BACKGROUND:Evidence regarding the incarceration of women generally indicates significant mental health challenges, particularly elevated depression and reduced self-esteem. However, in the Czech Republic, little research has been undertaken on the birth experiences of women in this population, and indeed, more generally, there is little research undertaken on this specific group of women.METHODS:A quantitative questionnaire-based cohort study was undertaken in a major women’s prison in the Czech Republic. The Birth Satisfaction Scale-Revised (BSS-R), the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS), and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) were administered to participants. Comparisons with normative data using the one-samplettest, comparisons between depression screen positive/negative groups using the independentttest, and correlational analysis were conducted. A measure of postpartum posttraumatic stress disorder (PP-PTSD) was also administered.RESULTS:BSS-R subscale scores were observed to be either similar or higher than the noncustodial population. High screen-positive rates of EPDS-assessed depression were observed, and the study cohort was characterized by low RSES-assessed self-esteem. PP-PTSD levels approximated the noncustodial population.CONCLUSIONS:Women in the Czech prison system report levels of birth satisfaction equal to or better than noncustodial women. However, the mental health of this group is comparatively impoverished, thus presenting a complex relationship between birth experience and mental health during the prison sentence. Limitations of the research are discussed, and the direction of future research is indicated.

ABSTRACT
This research entitled Perception of Syari'ah Faculty Lecturers and Law of UIN Raden Fatah Palembang Against the Practice of Rounding Prices from Total Consumer Expenditures at Supermarkets. This research is motivated by the practice of price rounding that occurs in supermarkets. The practice of rounding prices seems to only benefit one party because it is done without an agreement between the two parties. Two things were raised as the focus of the research. First, what was the Perception of the Lecturers of the Faculty of Sharia and the Law of UIN Raden Fatah Palembang on the Practice of Rounding Prices of Total Consumer Expenditures at Supermarkets. Second, What is the Legal Basis Used by Lecturers of the Sharia Faculty and Law of UIN Raden Fatah Palembang Against the Practice of Rounding Prices from Total Consumer Expenditures at Supermarkets. This research is a field research (Field Research), which is located in the Faculty of Syari'ah and the Law of UIN Raden Fatah Palembang. The method of data collection in this study is through interviews and literature. as primary data obtained from interviews with the Syari'ah Faculty Lecturers and the Law of UIN Raden Fatah Palembang. While secondary data is data obtained from books and research results related to the practice of rounding prices. after the data is obtained, then it is analyzed using qualitative descriptive techniques. From the descriptions presented by various reviews, the authors conclude that the perceptions of the Shari'ah faculty lecturers and the law of raden fatah regarding the practice of rounding prices of total consumer spending in supermarkets must be in accordance with the rules that apply in Islamic teachings. The legal basis that is suitable for use by lecturers is QS. An-Nisa ': 29, which is a strict prohibition on a believer who eats up the wealth of others with a physical path, except in trading on the basis of liking. And QS. Al-Maidah: 38 "assariqu wassariqatu faqtha’u aidiyahuma" that if a man or woman steals, then cut off his second hand.

Tailoring Vibrational Excitation Pathways for High-Yield Oxidation of Methane to Methanol
Authors: Nallapareddy Charan R. , Underwood Thomas C. 
Published: July 2024

Abstract

The direct conversion of methane to methanol under mild conditions is a pathway to utilize methane and form a value-added fuel over distributed scales. However, over-oxidation of methanol limits the maximum methanol yield, energy efficiency, and scalability of the process. For the first time, we show how molecular excitations and reaction timescales can be tailored in thermal non-equilibrium to break this limit. We engineer reaction pathways to form preferential intermediates that restrict the formation of unwanted byproducts. We synchronize vibrational excitations with active product removal in a one-pot reactor to control the accumulation of methanol and extend high methanol selectivity (> 30%) to high methane conversion (> 50%). We use these methods to demonstrate the highest methanol yield (21.4%) reported via single-step methane conversion at near-atmospheric conditions. We generalize these advances using process descriptors to demonstrate a pathway to even higher yields for energy efficient methanol synthesis.
Voting with their feet: Spring staging geese increasingly select for cereal crops over grassland at an important central European stopover site

Abstract

Northern hemisphere wild geese have increasingly shifted in the non-breeding season from feeding on natural wetlands to grazing agricultural grasslands and, since the 1960s, to green cereals, enhancing agricultural conflicts. From an agricultural perspective, it is important to know if this shift is a response to availability (i.e. grassland conversion to arable) or a response to the enhanced feeding opportunities provided by cereals and hence goose food preferences. In an important Polish goose spring staging area, we showed no change in the extent of cereal production area between 2012 and 2018, but based on repeated goose counts, a significant increase in goose use from a mean of 20.7% (± 0.04 se during 2007–2015) use of cereal fields to 33.5% in 2023. Larger flocks of the numerically dominant Greater White-fronted Geese Anser albifrons (hereafter White-fronted) and Bean Goose Anser fabalis showed greater preference for feeding on cereals in 2023, increasingly through the staging period, whereas larger flocks preferred grass in the period 2007–2015 (although patterns differed in less numerous species). Previous studies have shown that geese can maintain higher food intake rates on monospecific cereal fields than on grass swards, suggesting the recent transition is due to improved foraging efficiency, since their availability relative to grassland and other habitats has not changed. We predict that more geese will make this transition in this study area and in many other European farmland landscapes as long as there are no fitness penalties to doing so, potentially increasing level of agricultural conflict as more geese in larger flocks depredate cereal fields.
Yiqi Huazhuo decoction attenuates insulin resistance by regulating liver lncRNA-PID1 in ZDF rats

Published: July 2024

Abstract

Yiqi Huazhuo Decoction(YD), a traditional Chinese herbal formula, demonstrates notable therapeutic efficacy in the management of type2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM). This study aims to investigate the expression patterns of lncPID1, PID1, and downstream genes in T2DM rats subjected to YD treatment, elucidating the potential role of YD as an adjunctive therapy for T2DM. Two intervention groups, namely YD-lo(15 mg/kg/d) and YD-hi(30 mg/kg/d), were established. YD intervention resulted in decreased blood glucose, insulin resistance(IR), and lipid levels in rats. The relative expression of lncPID1, mRNA-PID1 and Foxo1 was reduced, while the expressions of IRS1 and p-Aktser473 were upregulated in the rat liver. Following YD treatment, expressions of lncPID1, PID1, and Foxo1 were downregulated in BRL-3A-IR cells, whereas IRS1 and Akt expressions were upregulated. Conversely, inhibiting lncPID1 demonstrated the opposite effect, indicating that YD modulates downstream target genes through lncPID-mediated regulation. The binding between lncPID1 and mRNA-PID1 was validated by RIP-PCR. It's posited that lncPID1 plays a pivotal role in the insulin receptor signaling pathway in the liver of ZDF rats. YD suppresses both lncPID1 and PID1, thereby enhancing the expression of IRS1 and Akt. This cascade effect further inhibits Foxo1 expression, promotes liver glycogen synthesis and mitigates insulin resistance in T2DM.

Abstract

Chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) is one of the common complications experienced by patients and affects up to 40% of patients receiving chemotherapy. Most Guidelines (ASCO, NCCN, and MASCC/ESMO) recommend the use of triple drug or 4 drug antiemetic regimens for prevention of CINV caused by highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC) i.e 5HT3 receptor antagonist, steroids, NK receptor antagonist and olanzapine. Both oral as well as intravenous antiemetics are recommended. However, no head to head trials are available to compare efficacy of oral vs intravenous ondansetron and dexamethasone combination for prevention of CINV in treatment naïve newly diagnosed cancer patients. Therefore, we conducted a randomized, phase III, open label non inferiority study to evaluate the efficacy of oral vs intravenous ondansetron and dexamethasone in prevention of chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting in newly diagnosed cancer patients receiving 1st cycle of highly emetogenic chemotherapy. This study initiated in March 2023. A total of 210 patients are planned to be enrolled over a period of 1.5 years. The study has been registered with clinical trial registry of India (CTRI/2024/03/063697).

Published: July 2024

Abstract

Background: Sports nutrition plays a crucial role in providing the fuel to meet the energy demands of athletes' training programs, enhancing adaptations associated with training, and ensuring rapid recovery between workouts. However, evidence suggests that the dietary habits of many athletes are unsatisfactory when compared to sport-specific nutrition recommendations. This discrepancy is mainly due to a lack of up-to-date, evidence-based nutritional knowledge. Hence, this parallel-group, randomized controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a 16-week evidence-based, culturally appropriate, personalized sports nutrition intervention on the sports nutrition knowledge and nutritional status of elite athletes in Sri Lanka, in comparison to a control group that does not receive this intervention.
Methods: Elite track and field athletes, competing at the national level and/or representing Sri Lanka in international competitions, will be randomly allocated to either the intervention group (IG) (n=15) or the control group (CG) (n=15). Participants in the IG will receive an evidence-based, culturally acceptable, personalized sports nutrition intervention from the principal investigator through one-to-one consultations at four time points (0, 4th, 8th, and 12th weeks), while participants in the CG will be followed up throughout the period without receiving the intervention. The primary outcome measure is the number of participants who achieve at least a 10% increase in mean sports nutrition knowledge score at the end of the 16th week, compared to the control group. Secondary outcomes include nutritional status and sports performance-related measures at the beginning and end of the 16th week.
Discussion: While the primary objective is to enhance sports nutrition knowledge (SNK), it is anticipated that improvements in nutritional status and overall health may significantly impact sports performance, overall health, and career longevity of the athletes.
Trial registration: This trial is registered under the Sri Lanka Clinical Trial Registry: SLCTR/2024/013 on 10th April 2024.
Shortcuts to adiabatic Thouless pumping
Authors: Ke Yongguan , Liu Wenjie , Lee Chaohong 
Published: July 2024

Abstract

Topological effects, known for their robustness against considerable perturbation, disorder, and defects, are believed to promote emerging quantum technologies. However, topological enhancement and protection could play a crucial role within coherence time, out of which decoherence mostly washes out the quantum feature. It urges us to accelerate topological effects to achieve effective protection and optimal control of quantum information. Taking the prototypical Thouless pumping as an example, quantized transport of particles in a cyclic adiabatic evolution faces a challenge: slow driving may exceed the coherent time, while fast driving may break quantization. To address this dilemma, we propose to add a control Hamiltonian to speed up Thouless pumping using shortcuts to adiabaticity. Compared to traditional Thouless pumping, our fast pumping scheme not only enables a substantial reduction of pumping time up to 11 orders of magnitude, but also effectively suppresses wavepacket diffusion. Furthermore, we demonstrate the resilience of our protocol to moderate noise levels. Our study settles the notoriously critical problem toward practical quantum technologies by combining topological effects and quantum control.

Abstract

The Jun dimerization protein (Jdp2) gene is active in mouse cerebellar granule cells and its protein product plays a crucial role in the formation of the cerebellum lobes through programmed cell death. However, the role of Jdp2 in cellular differentiation and pluripotency in the cerebellum, and the effect of the antioxidation reaction on cell plasticity, remain unknown. N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC) induced the early commitment of the differentiation of granule cell precursors (GCPs) to neurons, especially Purkinje cells, via the γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptor α6 subunit (Gabra6) axis; moreover, Jdp2 depletion enhanced this differentiation program of GCPs. The antioxidative effect of NAC was the main driving force of this decision toward the neural differentiation of the GCP population in the presence of Gabra6 in vitro. This implies that antioxidative drugs are effective agents for rescuing oxidative-stress-induced GCP damages in the cerebellum and commit this Gabra6-positive cell population toward differentiation into Purkinje cells.

Published: July 2024

Abstract

Objective:
The aim of this study is to create and validate a model that predicts the risk of perioperative heart failure for individuals who have hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP).
Material and methods:
We investigated a retrospective cohort of females with HDP who had caesarean sections performed at our hospital between January 1, 2014, and June 31, 2021. Exclusion criteria comprised under 18 years of age, incomplete clinical data, natural vaginal delivery, and complications with heart disease. The investigation's cohort was separated into two groups at random; 75% of pregnancies were allocated for the development of a prediction model, while the remaining 25% was employed for internal validation of the model. The predictors included in this study were those associated with heart failure and risk factors for hypertensive disorders in pregnancy. The most parsimonious model of perioperative heart failure was generated by employing stepwise backwards logistic regression. Goodness-of-fit was evaluated utilizing the Hosmer‒Lemeshow test. The assessment of model discrimination was performed employing the concordance index, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was utilized for illustration.
Results:
In this study, predictive models were developed and validated to predict the probability of perioperative heart failure in patients with HDP. The model includes 4 predictive factors, such as preoperative HELLP syndrome, MAP, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification, and anaesthesia method, which can unite preoperative comorbidities and intraoperative conditions to predict the probability of perioperative heart failure in patients with HDP. The model concordance index was 0.8501, with good discrimination and calibration, a high predictive value, and clinical utility.
Conclusion:
The predictive model for perioperative heart failure in patients with hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP) is helpful for anaesthesiologists to formulate personalized and precise treatment plans for caesarean section in patients with hypertension in pregnancy, which has important clinical significance.
