Promoting physical activity and youth development in schools: the case for near-peer coaches
Authors: St. Pierre Christine , Mitchell Jerita , Guan Win , Sacheck Jennifer M. 
Published: March 2024

BackgroundSports-based youth development (SBYD) programs provide an inclusive, supportive environment for promoting physical activity as well as nurturing the development of life skills which, in combination, promote physical, mental, and emotional health in youth. The Up2Us Sports SBYD program was implemented in six schools in New Orleans, Louisiana in 2020–2022, where near-peer coaches from the community were placed in schools and present throughout the school day. The intervention period straddled the COVID-19 pandemic as well as extreme weather events, modifying program delivery.Process/methodsAn exploratory case study was conducted to understand participant experience amid program disruptions and modifications, as well as their perceptions of program impact on physical activity and health. Interviews with coaches (n = 7), focus groups with youth (n = 14) and program observation data were triangulated to provide a description of the case.ResultsThe major theme that emerged from the case study was the centrality of the near-peer mentorship relationships between coaches and youth. Participants believed near-peer relationships facilitated life skill development and increased opportunity for physical activity in schools, but pressures on coaches’ time and external challenges in the community were limiting factors to the extent of program impact.ConclusionThis community case study demonstrates the potential role for near-peer mentors in influencing the health and wellbeing of youth from under-resourced communities and highlights the opportunity for school-based SBYD programming to provide youth with a consistent source of both relational and physical activity support.

Published: March 2024

IntroductionAgitation is a common symptom in patients with Alzheimer's dementia. But agitation can be a heterogeneous symptom, encompassing a diverse array of behaviors exhibited by patients. The Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory (CMAI) is a 29-item scale that is used to systematically assess the frequency and severity of agitation in older adults as rated by a primary caregiver. The CMAI was originally designed for use by professional care givers in institutional care settings. Alzheimer's dementia, however, is associated with a significant burden on family members, who provide the majority of care, and other informal care partners.MethodsOur qualitative study aimed to assess the accuracy and applicability of the CMAI according to the needs and perceptions of non-professional care partners. Specifically, we wanted to determine if the behaviors included in the instrument reflect: (a) the care partner's experience with agitation in Alzheimer's dementia patients, (b) how the behaviors and their frequency are related to the perception of agitation severity, and (c) what changes in agitation behaviors are meaningful to care partners. We interviewed 30 care partners for patients with Alzheimer's dementia in the United States.ResultsThe care partners confirmed all behaviors listed in the CMAI as relevant. The behaviors reflect a spectrum of severity, with aggressive behaviors considered more severe than non-aggressive behaviors and physical behaviors generally considered more severe than verbal behaviors. Any reduction or increase in the frequency of a behavior was meaningful to care partners. Generally, a change from physical to verbal behaviors and aggressive to non-aggressive was considered a meaningful improvement while a change from verbal to physical and non-aggressive to aggressive was considered a meaningful worsening.DiscussionThe CMAI appropriately captures relevant behaviors of agitation in Alzheimer's dementia and provides insight into the relative improvement or worsening of agitation symptoms.
Construction and Analysis for the Optimal Supersaturated Designs with a Large Number of Inert Factors
Authors: Hong Xiaoqing , Zhou Weiping , Wang Xiao , Li Min 
Published: March 2024

Supersaturated designs (SSDs) refer to those designs in which the run size is much smaller than the main effects to be estimated. They are commonly used to identify a few, but critical, active factors from a large set of potentially active ones, keeping the cost as low as possible. In this regard, the development of new construction and analysis methods has recently seen a rapid increase. In this paper, we provide some methods to construct equi- and mixed-level E(f NOD) optimal SSDs with a large number of inert factors using the substitution method. The proposed methods are easy to implement, and many new SSDs can then be constructed from them. We also study a variable selection method based on the screening-selection network (SSnet) method for regression problems. A real example is analyzed to illustrate that it is able to effectively identify active factors. Eight different analysis methods are used to analyze the data generated from the proposed designs. Three scenarios with different setups of parameters are designed, and the performances of each method are illustrated by extensive simulation studies. Among all these methods, SSnet produced the most satisfactory results according to power.
Taxonomy and Phylogeny of the Aphid Genus Nippolachnus Matsumura, 1917, with Synonymy of the Mysterious Neonippolachnus Shinji, 1924 (Hemiptera: Aphididae: Lachninae)

Published: March 2024

Nippolachnus Matsumura, 1917 is a small aphid genus from the tribe Tuberolachnini (Hemiptera: Lachninae) occurring in Southeast Asia. Species from this genus are quite characteristic and stand out among lachnids for their morphology and ecological associations. We have performed a revision and phylogenetic analyses to elucidate the relationships within Nippolachnus and other representatives of Tuberolachnini. Here, the taxonomy of the genus is revised based on morphological data to include seven species, three of them newly described: Nippolachnus chakrabartii sp. nov. from India, Nippolachnus sinensis sp. nov. from China, and Nippolachnus malayaensis sp. nov. from Indonesia. Nippolachnus appear to be non monophyletic genus and a new genus, Indolachnus gen. nov., is described to accommodate Nippolachnus himalayensis (van der Goot, 1917) as Indolachnus himalayensis (van der Goot, 1917) comb. nov. The new genus is a sister group to the remaining Nippolachnus species, which created a monophyletic clade. Neonippolachnus Shinji, 1924 syn. nov. is recognised as a synonym of Nippolachnus, and Neonippolachnus betulae Shinji, 1924 syn. nov. as a synonym of Nippolachnus micromeli Shinji, 1924. For the first time, a scanning electron microscopy study of the sexual generation of N. piri Matsumura, 1917 has been performed. Apterous and alate viviparous females of N. bengalensis Basu and Hille Ris Lambers, 1968, N. piri, and N. micromeli, and alate viviparous females of N. xitianmushanus Zhang and Zhong, 1982 are re-described and illustrated, as well as apterous and alate viviparous females of I. himalayensis comb. nov. Hitherto unknown morphs of N. micromeli, N. piri, and N. xitianmushanus are described. A lectotype and paralectotypes of N. xitianmushanus are designated herein. Notes on distribution and host plants are given, and keys to apterous and alate viviparous females of the genera Nippolachnus and Indolachnus are also provided.
Lupa Romana en Mésie inférieure. Images, discutions et hypothèses
Authors: Aparaschivei Dan 
Published: March 2024

La scène classique avec la louve qui nourrit les deux enfants adoptés, Romulus et Rémus, les fondateurs de Rome, apparaît aussi bien dans la littérature ancienne que dans l’art mineur et sur divers reliefs et sculptures. Dans la province de Mésie Inférieure, il existe plusieurs illustrations de la scène de la louve sur différents supports. Certaines de ces représentations apparaissent dans un contexte privé, mais au moins un de ces motifs symboliques est présent sur un bâtiment public. Toutes ces images sont analysées en détail. Ce qui est intéressant, mais pas surprenant, c’est que la plupart de ces représentations peut être liée à l’armée romaine. En ce qui concerne la signification de la scène, il est déjà courant dans la littérature d’associer la lupa allaitant les jumeaux à la diffusion des valeurs romaines. Cette scène complexe était l’un des symboles les plus puissants de la Rome antique et continue d’être vue aujourd’hui comme
un emblème de la romanité.

Microvasculature plays a crucial role in human physiology and is closely related to various human diseases. Building in vitro vascular networks is essential for studying vascular tissue behavior with repeatable morphology and signaling conditions. Engineered 3D microvascular network models, developed through advanced microfluidic-based techniques, provide accurate and reproducible platforms for studying the microvasculature in vitro, an essential component for designing organ-on-chips to achieve greater biological relevance. By optimizing the microstructure of microfluidic devices to closely mimic the in vivo microenvironment, organ-specific models with healthy and pathological microvascular tissues can be created. This review summarizes recent advancements in in vitro strategies for constructing microvascular tissue and microfluidic devices. It discusses the static vascularization chips’ classification, structural characteristics, and the various techniques used to build them: growing blood vessels on chips can be either static or dynamic, and in vitro blood vessels can be grown in microchannels, elastic membranes, and hydrogels. Finally, the paper discusses the application scenarios and key technical issues of existing vascularization chips. It also explores the potential for a novel organoid chip vascularization approach that combines organoids and organ chips to generate better vascularization chips.

The vegetation canopy clumping index (CI) is an important indicator for understanding radiative transport processes, radiation interception, and the photosynthesis of vegetation canopies. However, most studies consider CI only in the nadir or specific direction. In this study, we analyze the directional characteristics of the CI based on RAMI-V (radiation transfer model intercomparison) activity, which represents most typical canopies. The directional gap fraction and CI of these scenes are accurately calculated based on the LESS (large-scale remote sensing data and image simulation framework) model. According to our results, the directional characteristics of the CI are affected by many factors, such as vegetation type, season, and canopy structure. Generally, the CI of a coniferous forest varies little with zenith angle, while the CI of a broad-leaf forest demonstrates the different trend. In winter, the CI is smaller than that in summer, and the variation in the CI at the zenith angle is less. The row structure scenes exhibit different directional characteristics along and perpendicular to the row direction, and their CIs tend to increase with zenith angle. To accurately model the directional CI, we propose a modified Gompertz function model. Compared with other directional CI models, this model has the advantages of high precision and strong applicability (

How to Reduce Moral Hazard Crisis in Business: Study from Indonesian's Pesantren
Authors: Rifai Khamdan 
Published: March 2024

This empirical study report on Pesantren (Islamic Boarding School) aimed to explore how to manage the pesantren enterprise. It deals with the pesantren phenomenon but from a different angle. A philosophical stream of Al Hikam taught Kasab (human must fill their needs earnestly) and Tajrid (life attitude doesn't make bustle about solely worldly pursuit). Those tasawuf concepts are reflected in pesantren's economic behaviour, which is believed to counter a business ethic crisis that began being popularized in the late 90s about the spiritual organization.

Background: Hyperbilirubinemia is defined as total serum bilirubin level at ≥ 5 mg/dl. In Indonesia, the prevalence of jaundice is 13,7-85%. One of the risk factors for hyperbilirubinemia in neonates is babies born with a history of asphyxia. The diagnosis of asphyxia can be enforced by the APGAR scoring system. This study aims to determine the relationship between APGAR values and the incidence of hyperbilirubinemia in neonates treated at Wangaya Regional General Hospital.
Methods: This research is an analytic observational study using a cross-sectional approach, which was carried out in April-May 2022. The sample was taken by consecutive sampling. Bivariate analysis was performed using the chi-square test. Confounding variables will be controlled by design and by analysis. Influential risk factors were analyzed multivariate with logistic regression. Data were analyzed with SPSS software.
Results: From 84 samples, 67, 9% had hyperbilirubinemia. The 1-minute APGAR score (P = 0,017, OR = 8,373, 95% CI; 1,468 – 47,738) and the 5-minute APGAR score (P = 0,034, OR =8,680, 95% CI; 1,172 – 64, 293) had significant correlation with the incidence of hyperbilirubinemia in neonates treated at Wangaya Regional General Hospital.
Conclusion: Low APGAR scores have a significant correlation with the incidence of hyperbilirubinemia in neonates treated at Wangaya Regional General Hospital. The factor that most influences the incidence of hyperbilirubinemia is the 1-minute APGAR score. Neonates born with a low 1-minute APGAR score are 8,3 times at risk of experiencing hyperbilirubinemia.
