IntroductionThe 21-point Brain Care Score (BCS) is a novel tool designed to motivate individuals and care providers to take action to reduce the risk of stroke and dementia by encouraging lifestyle changes. Given that late-life depression is increasingly recognized to share risk factors with stroke and dementia, and is an important clinical endpoint for brain health, we tested the hypothesis that a higher BCS is associated with a reduced incidence of future depression. Additionally, we examined its association with a brain health composite outcome comprising stroke, dementia, and late-life depression.MethodsThe BCS was derived from the United Kingdom Biobank baseline evaluation in participants with complete data on BCS items. Associations of BCS with the risk of subsequent incident late-life depression and the composite brain health outcome were estimated using multivariable Cox proportional hazard models. These models were adjusted for age at baseline and sex assigned at birth.ResultsA total of 363,323 participants were included in this analysis, with a median BCS at baseline of 12 (IQR: 11-14). There were 6,628 incident cases of late-life depression during a median follow-up period of 13 years. Each five-point increase in baseline BCS was associated with a 33% lower risk of incident late-life depression (95% CI: 29%-36%) and a 27% lower risk of the incident composite outcome (95% CI: 24%-30%).DiscussionThese data further demonstrate the shared risk factors across depression, dementia, and stroke. The findings suggest that a higher BCS, indicative of healthier lifestyle choices, is significantly associated with a lower incidence of late-life depression and a composite brain health outcome. Additional validation of the BCS is warranted to assess the weighting of its components, its motivational aspects, and its acceptability and adaptability in routine clinical care worldwide.

Published: July 2024

BackgroundIt has been recognized that HIV-related stigma hinders efforts in testing, treatment, and prevention. In this systematic review, we aimed to summarize available findings on the association between HIV-related stigma and age, social support, educational status, depression, employment status, wealth index, gender, residence, knowledge about HIV, marital status, duration since diagnosis, and disclosure status using a large number of studies.MethodsElectronic databases including Scopus, Medline/PubMed, Web of Sciences (WOS), Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, and Open Research Dataset Challenge were systematically searched until 15 April 2023. We included all kinds of HIV-stigma studies, regardless of language, publishing date, or geographic location. The inclusion criteria were met by 40 studies, with a total of 171,627 patients. A mixed-effect model was used to pool estimates and evaluate publication bias, as well as to conduct sensitivity analysis.ResultsFactors such as older age, social support, greater education, higher socioeconomic status, good knowledge of HIV, and longer years of living with HIV significantly lowered the likelihood of HIV-related stigma. Contrarily, factors such as depression, residing in rural areas, female respondents, and non-disclosure of HIV status were significantly associated with a high risk of HIV-related stigma.ConclusionTo combat systemic HIV-associated stigma, it is crucial to develop wholesome and comprehensive social methods by raising community-level HIV awareness. In addition to activism, local economic development is also crucial for creating thriving communities with a strong social fabric.

BackgroundOnline psychological surveys allow for swift data collection among college students, thus providing a foundation for psychological interventions, particularly during emergent public health events. However, the association between online survey completion behaviors and offline psychological symptoms has yet to be explored.MethodsA large-scale web-based survey was conducted from December 31, 2022, to January 7, 2023, involving 22,624 participants. Psychological symptoms were assessed using standardized measures, while the time taken to complete the survey and the time of completion were recorded by the online survey platform.ResultsAs the time duration increased, the prevalence of anxiety, depression, insomnia, and PTSD also increased significantly (Pfor trend &lt; 0.001). The highest odds ratios were observed in the longer duration group. Only a longer duration was significantly associated with PTSD. The time period for completing the questionnaire from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. was found to be significantly linked with anxiety symptoms and depression symptoms. Conversely, completing the questionnaire at other times was specifically associated with anxiety symptoms and insomnia symptoms. The prolonged duration needed to complete the questionnaire was more closely related to the comorbidity of anxiety, depression, and insomnia than to the comorbidity of those symptoms with PTSD. When questionnaires were completed during other times, specifically referring to the late-night and early morning hours, individuals were more likely to exhibit comorbid symptoms of insomnia.ConclusionThe study identified the specific associations between time durations, time points for completing online survey, and psychological symptoms/comorbidity among college students. Further exploration of their causal relationships and the underlying mechanisms is warranted.

IntroductionAs effective growth-promoters and immune-modulators, yeast fermented products have shown positive effects in ruminants. To explore the mechanisms of yeast culture promoting growth and regulating immunity, this study investigated the effects of yeast culture, and β-glucan as one of its main active ingredients, on the growth performance, immune function, antioxidant capacity and hormonal profile in Mongolian ram lambs.MethodsOne hundred and five Mongolian ram lambs were randomly assigned to 3 groups, with 35 replicates in each group. The dietary treatments were: total mixed ration (TMR) as the control group, TMR supplemented with 50–70 g/kg yeast culture (YC) or 75 mg/kg β-glucan. The test period was 137 days. All the sheep were weighed and 6 serum samples were collected in each group on days 0, 30, 60, 90 and 130, respectively.ResultsThe results showed that both YC and β-glucan could promote the growth performance with increased average daily gain and decreased feed to weight gain ratio. Moreover, these two feed additives facilitated the immune function by selectively increasing the serum levels of lysozyme, IgG, IgM, INF-γ, TNF-α and some interleukins (IL-1β, IL-2, IL-6 and IL-8); ameliorated the antioxidant capacity with higher total antioxidant capacity and enzyme activities of catalase and glutathione peroxidase; altered the metabolism-associated hormone levels with higher growth hormone and thyroid hormone T3 but lower cortisol and insulin.DiscussionIn conclusion, both YC and β-glucan could improve the growth performance, immune function and antioxidant capacity, and regulate the serum levels of metabolism-associated hormones, thus exerting effects of promoting growth and improving immune function. Therefore, YC could be considered as a suitable potential alternative strategy to antibiotics and be used as an animal feed additive. This article provides a theoretical basis for the clinical application of such yeast fermented preparations in mutton sheep husbandry.

Authors: Majhi Rinki , Nanda Binita 
Published: July 2024

In many developing countries, women are typically expected to contribute to the financial stability of their families only when it’s absolutely necessary. The less affluent the family, the more reliant they are on the income earned by women. It is crucial to make efforts to increase job opportunities to empower impoverished women to generate income. Numerous initiatives and programs have been initiated to encourage self-employment among women. In this context, it is essential to emphasize the promotion of women’s entrepreneurship, regardless of their educational background. Various government agencies at the state and central levels, as well as non-governmental organizations, are actively involved in advancing entrepreneurship among women. The prevalence of women-owned businesses is on a sharp rise in nearly every country. In developed nations, women are widely recognized and hold prominent positions in the business world. However, women entrepreneurs in Odisha are encountering substantial challenges, including social and personal barriers, marketing obstacles, financial constraints, and production issues. Moreover, tribal women entrepreneurs face even more complex issues as times change. These additional challenges can be elaborated upon, including limited knowledge and experience, inadequate transportation infrastructure, liquidity and financial difficulties, low levels of education, a reluctance to take risks, a lack of self-confidence, a lack of ambition, family commitments, and financial constraints. Choosing the correct business opportunity for a venture can yield substantial rewards in the future. Initiating women-led businesses in tribal regions of Odisha can contribute to the enhancement of socio-economic conditions within these tribal areas. This paper aims to delve into the issue of fostering entrepreneurship among tribal women in Odisha and propose practical solutions to enhance the current state of tribal affairs. Additionally, it aims to align with the existing policy framework of the state for the betterment of the overall societal well-being.

Показано, что обеспечение надежности и стабильности искусственного интеллекта является одной из актуальных задач обеспечения надежности роевых структур малоразмерных беспилотных летательных аппаратов (БПЛА). Проведен анализ роевых структур малоразмерных БПЛА. Установлено, что существующие модели и методы для оценки надежности роя БПЛА недостаточно эффективны, так как не учитывают все составляющие информационной многоуровневой системы, что приводит к невозможности достоверного прогнозирования показателей надежности роя БПЛА. Для решения этой проблемы предложены уточненные обобщенные модели и метод оценки надежности многоуровневой информационной системы БПЛА, включающей аппаратную, программную и сетевую компоненты. Обосновано, что данный подход позволит автоматизировать и усовершенствовать процессы формирования требований к проектированию и производству БПЛА и тем самым повысить надежность их роевых структур.
The paper shows that ensuring the reliability and stability of artificial intelligence is one of the relevant tasks of ensuring the reliability of swarm structures of small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Swarm structures of small-size UAVs have been analyzed. It is established that the existing models and methods for assessing the UAV swarms’ reliability are not effective enough due to the fact that all components of the information multilevel system are not taken into account, which leads to the impossibility of reliable prediction of UAV swarm reliability indicators. To solve this problem, a refined generalized model and method for assessing the reliability of multilevel UAV information system, including both hardware, software and network components, are proposed. It is substantiated that this approach will allow to automate and improve the processes of forming requirements for the UAVs design and production and thus increase the reliability of their swarm structures.

Применение фильтров для отбраковки опорного синхросигнала при воздействии на синхросигнал помех приводит к необходимости использования прерывистого синхросигнала на интервале подстройки частоты генератора, управляемого напряжением (ГУН), что вызывает в этом случае увеличение девиации фазы выходного синхросигнала вследствие уменьшения мощности опорного синхросигнала на выходе узкополосного фильтра, используемого для выделения его несущей частоты. В данной статье предложена модель имитационного моделирования девиации фазы синхросигнала, а также приведены численные результаты имитационного моделирования.
The use of filters for rejection of the sync signal when interference is applied to the sync signal leads to the need to use an intermittent sync signal at the frequency adjustment interval of the voltage-controlled generator, which in this case causes an increase in the phase deviation of the sync signal. In this article, a simulation model of the phase deviation of a sync signal is proposed, and numerical simulation results are presented.
