Abstract

Purpose this study aimed to describe and compare the physical demands of emerging modality played in a 1v1 format of soccer, the X1, with matches lasting 20- and 30-min.Methods thirty-one professional X1 athletes participated in this investigation. Sixteen played in games lasting 20-min (height: 174.88 ± 8.24 cm; body mass: 72.17 ± 8.1 kg), while 15 played in matches lasting a total of 30 minutes (height: 175.83 ± 4.26 cm; body mass: 74.67 ± 6.1 kg). To carry out the study, GPS devices (K-50, K-Sports, Italy) were used. Main data analyzed included absolute and relative values of total distance, distance at different speed zones, number and distance at different accelerating and decelerating speeds.Results X1 players covered on average a total distance of 2240 ± 256.38 m and 3118 ± 441.99 m, for 20 and 30-min matches, respectively. The 30-min matches resulted in higher absolute values of all metrics analyzed, with effect sizes varying from 0.65 (sprinting distance) to 3.66 (walking distance). 20-min matches resulted in higher values of relative distance (78.25 ± 9.03 vs. 72.50 ± 6.54 m/min), relative jogging distance (17.25 ± 5.25 vs. 14.17 ± 3.03 m/min), relative accelerating and decelerating distance (2 m/s2 m/min).Conclusion the locomotor demands of athletes playing an 1v1 soccer match with different durations were very specific and singular due to the rules imposed for X1 athletes. In addition, 30-min matches played in this format elicits greater locomotor demands compared to 20-min, however, 20-min matches displayed higher relative demands in m/min.

Abstract

Controlling the precision and mechanical cohesion of 3D-printed parts remains a central concern in the development of additive manufacturing. A two-dimensional finite element model of the photopolymerization of a sensitive resin in a stereolithography apparatus is proposed as a tool for predicting and optimizing formulation and printing parameters. By considering light illumination, chemical reaction and heat transfer in a resin exposed to a moving UV laser source, this first approach accounts for monomer-to-polymer conversion and polymerization rate in agreement with experimental results obtained by FT-IR monitoring and the use of semi-empirical models. The temperature gradient along the exposed photosensitive material was also estimated. By varying the photoinitiator content and simulating the addition of an absorbing filler via the molar extinction coefficient, it was shown that a higher photoinitiator concentration and the presence of strongly absorbing fillers lead to a reduction in the light penetration depth, which can result in structural defects without adaptation of the layer thickness to be printed.

Polychlorinated Biphenyls' Impact on Comorbidity Networks: Unveiling Epidemiological Patterns and offsetting Through Dietary Adjustments
Authors: Gao Ying , Lu Han , Zhou Huan , Tan Jiaxing 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs), as a major class of organic pollutants, garnered increasing attention due to their significant ability for inter-regional accumulation and migration, prolonged half-life, and relatively high toxicity. Our study aimed to assess the impact of PCBs on various diseases and mortality risks using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), while proposing lifestyle adjustments, particularly dietary modifications, to mitigate mortality risk. Statistical analyses employed principal component analysis (PCA), multifactorial logistic regression, multifactorial Cox regression, comorbidity network analysis, and machine learning prediction models. Results indicated significant associations between 7 types of PCBs and 12 diseases (p < 0.05), with 6 diseases showing significant positive correlations (OR > 1, p < 0.05), along with listing the 25 most relevant diseases, such as asthma and chronic bronchitis (OR (95%CI) = 5.85(4.37,7.83), p<0.0001), arthritis and osteoporosis (OR (95%CI) = 6.27(5.23,7.55), p<0.0001). We proposed that PCB exposure ultimately triggered adverse progression of multiple diseases and increased mortality risk, suggesting PCBs could potentially serve as specific biomarkers for certain diseases in the future. Building upon this, we further suggested that controlling dietary intake to reduce dietary inflammatory index (DII) could lower mortality and disease risks. While PCBs were independent risk factors for mortality, ample evidence suggested that adjusting DII might mitigate the adverse effects of PCBs to some extent. Further physiological mechanisms require deeper exploration through additional research.

Published: June 2024

Abstract

Lithium-ion power batteries have become integral to the advancement of new energy vehicles. However, their performance is notably compromised by excessive temperatures, a factor intricately linked to the batteries' electrochemical properties. To optimize lithium-ion battery pack performance, it is imperative to maintain temperatures within an appropriate range, achievable through an effective cooling system. This paper delves into the heat dissipation characteristics of lithium-ion battery packs under various parameters of liquid cooling systems, employing a synergistic analysis approach. The findings demonstrate that a liquid cooling system with an initial coolant temperature of 15℃ and a flow rate of 2L/min exhibits superior synergistic performance, effectively enhancing the cooling efficiency of the battery pack. As the charge/discharge rate increases, battery heating power escalates, resulting in a notable rise in temperature and synergy angle. Optimal cooling efficiency is achieved with three cooling channel inlets, minimizing the temperature difference across the battery pack.

Published: June 2024

Abstract

Understanding the mechanisms underlying a stable polarization at the surface of ferroelectric thin films is of particular importance both from a fundamental point of view and to achieve control of the surface polarization itself. In this study, we demonstrate that the X-ray standing wave technique allows the surface polarization profile of a ferroelectric thin film, as opposed to the average film polarity, to be probed directly. The X-ray standing wave technique provides, with picometer accuracy, Ti and Ba atomic positions near the surface of three differently strained BaTiO3 thin films. This technique gives direct access to the local ferroelectric polarization at and below the surface. By employing X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, a detailed overview of the oxygen-containing species adsorbed on the surface is obtained. The different amplitude and orientation of the local ferroelectric polarizations are associated with surface charges attributed to different type, amount and spatial distribution of the oxygen-containing adsorbates.

Authors: Jara-Medina Kevins , Lillo Luis , Lagunas Constanza , Cabello-Guzmán Gerardo , Valenzuela-Melgarejo Francisco J. 
Published: June 2024

Background:
Alzheimer's disease (AD) plays a prominent role as the most common
form of dementia. Moreover, the traditional mechanism of AD does not explain the microvascular
damage observed in about 25-30 years between the onset of AD, which results in late application
treatment that inhibits or delays neurodegeneration.

Objective:
Our objective was to identify differentially expressed genes in human brain samples associated
with vascular disruption in AD.

Methods:
We analyzed 1633 post-mortem brain samples in the GEO database and, after applying
clinical and bioinformatic exclusion criteria, worked with 581 prefrontal and frontal samples. All
datasets were analyzed using GEO2R from NCBI. We identified common genes using the Venny
tool, and their metabolic relevance associated with AD and the vascular system was analyzed using
MetaboAnalyst tools.

Results:
Our bioinformatic analysis identified PRKCB, MAP2K2, ADCY1, GNA11, GNAQ,
PRKACB, KCNMB4, CALD1, and GNAS as potentially involved in AD pathogenesis. These
genes are associated with signal transductions, cell death signaling, and cytoskeleton, suggesting
potential modulation of cellular physiology, including endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondrial
activity.

Conclusion:
This study generates hypotheses regarding the roles of novel genes over critical pathways
relevant to AD and its relation with vascular dysfunction. These findings suggest potential
new targets for further investigation into the pathogenesis of dementia and AD.

Authors: Fatemizadeh Somayeh , Mahboobi Hamidreza , Moghtadaie Atie , Sarmadian Amirreza Jabbaripour , Kamal Mohammad Amjad 
Published: June 2024

Introduction:
Enteral feeding is essential for hospitalized patients unable to consume
oral nutrition. However, it poses a risk of bacterial contamination, leading to infections and increased
morbidity and mortality.

Methods:
Studies have shown that contaminated enteral feeds are associated with longer hospital
stays and worsened patient outcomes. Common pathogens include Gram-negative bacilli (e.g., Serratia
spp., Klebsiella spp., Enterobacter spp.), coagulase-negative staphylococci, and Clostridium
difficile. Preventing contamination requires identifying and mitigating potential routes. This comprehensive
approach encompasses careful practices during production, storage, preparation, and
administration of enteral feeds.

Results:
Early initiation of enteral feeding has also been linked to lower infection rates. Standardized
protocols, hand hygiene adherence, routine monitoring for infection signs, and ongoing
staff education are crucial for safe enteral feeding. Further research is needed to better understand
risk factors for contamination and evaluate the effectiveness of preventive interventions.

Conclusion:
Addressing these knowledge gaps can significantly improve the quality of enteral
feeding and reduce infection burden in hospitalized patients.
Design and Performance Analysis of A Linear Switched Reluctance Motor Considering End Effects
Authors: Lachheb Aymen , Salem Jamel Ben , Amraoui Lilia El 
Published: June 2024

Introduction:
In recent years, linear actuators have gained significant attention due to
their ability to provide direct linear movement without the need for motion transformation devices.
One significant challenge in the design and modeling of linear actuators is the occurrence of longitudinal
end-effects. The finite length of the translator stack in linear actuators causes an unbalanced
phase force, leading to discrepancies between the phases at the end and center of the actuator. Neglecting
these end-effects can lead to inaccuracies in the actuator's performance and control.

Methods:
The objective of this study is to develop a comprehensive approach for the design, sizing,
and modeling of the actuator to ensure optimal performance. An energy conversion procedure
calculates the thrust force and determines the actuator's geometrical parameters. A numerical
model based on the finite element method is developed to analyze the actuator's magnetic behavior
and establish its characteristics. Furthermore, a thorough analysis of the end effect is conducted
using two-dimensional finite element analysis.

Results:
To accurately capture the actuator's dynamic response and enable precise control, a mathematical
model is formulated, incorporating the nonlinear behavior of inductance and incorporating
the end effect factor. The proposed model demonstrates high accuracy and provides a solid
foundation for the control of the linear switched reluctance actuator.

Conclusion:
Overall, this study contributes to the advancement of direct drive systems for industrial
applications by providing a detailed design procedure and an accurate modeling approach for
the linear actuator, enabling more efficient and precise control strategies.

Authors: Jimenez Daniel E , Ross Emily J , Weinstein Elliott , Gouse Hetta , Pan Yue , Martinez Garza David , Burke Shanna L , Joo Jin Hui , Behar-Zusman Victoria 
Published: June 2024

Background
Older Latino adults with HIV are at increased risk for mild cognitive impairment and earlier onset of aging-related cognitive decline. Improvements in cognitive functioning and cognitive outcomes are possible among people with HIV who adopt health promotion behaviors. However, health promotion interventions for older Latino adults with HIV have not been extensively used or widely recognized as viable treatment options. Happy Older Latinos are Active (HOLA) is a multicomponent, health promotion intervention that is uniquely tailored for older Latino adults with HIV.

Objective
This study aims to (1) determine the feasibility and acceptability of an adapted version of HOLA aimed at improving cognitive functioning among older Latino adults with HIV; (2) explore whether HOLA will produce changes in cognitive functioning; (3) explore whether HOLA will produce changes in activity, psychosocial functioning, or biomarkers of cognition; and (4) explore whether changes in activity, psychosocial functioning or cognitive biomarkers correlate with changes in cognition, while accounting for genetic risk for dementia.

Methods
A single-arm pilot trial with 30 Latino (aged 50 years and older) men and women with HIV was conducted to assess feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects on cognition. Participants were assessed at 2 time points (baseline and postintervention) on measures of neurocognitive and psychosocial functioning. In addition, blood samples were collected to determine biomarkers of cognition at baseline and postintervention. Successful recruitment was defined as meeting 100% of the targeted sample (N=30), with 20% (n=6) or less of eligible participants refusing to participate. Adequate retention was defined as 85% (n=25) or more of participants completing the postintervention assessment and acceptability was defined as 80% (n=38) or more of sessions attended by participants.

Results
Participant recruitment began on February 22, 2022, and was completed on August 15, 2022. The last study visit took place on February 20, 2023. Data analysis is currently ongoing.

Conclusions
Encouraging findings from this exploratory study may provide a blueprint for scaling up the HOLA intervention to a larger cohort of older Latino adults with HIV who may be currently experiencing or are at risk for HIV-related cognitive challenges.

Authors: Orekhov A. N. , Orekhov N. A. , Omelchenko A. V. , Sobenin I. A. 
Published: June 2024

Aim. Previously, low-density lipoprotein-containing circulating immune complexes (LDL-CIC) were found in the blood of atherosclerotic patients. High diagnostic and prognostic significance of cholesterol level in LDL-CIC (Chol-CIC) in relation to the development of asymptomatic atherosclerosis suggested its clinical utility. Here we attempted to improve the prognostic value of CholCIC by combining this marker with other features.Materials and Methods. The study included 101 male patients with asymptomatic carotid atherosclerosis. During 1 year, we carried out quarterly measurements of clinical and biochemical features including Chol-CIC and intima-media thickness (IMT).Results. Combination with age increased the prognostic significance of Chol-CIC from 63.5% to 78.3% that exceeded those of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and Chol-CIC alone. Age did not improve prognostic significance of other lipid parameters. Therefore, Chol-CIC had higher prognostic significance in comparison to other lipid profile parameters.Conclusion. Combination of Chol-CIC and patient age may be used for the prognosis of increasing intima-media thickness.

Abstract
This study examined pathomorphological changes and meat quality alterations associated with Wooden Breast Myopathy (WB) in total of 192 broiler chickens divided into Ross 308 (n=96) and Cobb 500 (n=96) heavy hybrids at ages 42, 60, and 70 days. WB occurrence remained consistently high (>73%) across periods, peaking on day 70 (83% for Ross, 90% for Cobb). Cobb broilers had better production results and carcass traits parameters after day 42 and day 60 of the experiment (p≤0.05). Genotype did not affect WB occurrence or severity, while slaughter age influenced severe cases WB occurrence, increasing from 11.67% on day 42 to 36.67% on day 70 (p=0.003). The presence of WB was associated with higher ultimate pH, lightness (L*), redness (a*), and yellowness (b*) of the muscle (p<0.0001), except on day 70. Physicochemical and color parameters were also influenced by slaughter age (p<0.0001). On day 42, drip loss (p<0.0001), cooking loss (p≤0.05) and shear force (p<0.0001) were affected by genotype. On days 60 and 70, the differences in water retention capacity were observed only between normal and severely affected breasts (p<0.0001). For each slaughter age severely affected WB had higher shear force compared to normal breasts (p<0.0001). Additionally, with the increasing slaughter age of broilers, drip loss, cooking loss, and shear force of the breast meat were increased (p<0.0001). The results obtained regarding the occurrence and severity of WB and its consequent meat quality alterations suggest that extended fattening is not recommended for poultry production.
