Authors: Bays Daniel K. , Verble Cole , Powers Verble Kalyn M. 
Published: January 2024

ABSTRACT
Artificial intelligence (AI) and chatbot technologies have rapidly emerged with promising applications in public health, including developing personal lifestyles and exercise routines. This article examines the effectiveness of AI-based chatbot platforms to generate personalized exercise regimens. Chatbots are freely accessible to users with Internet access and may be more cost-effective than a personal trainer. This review highlights multiple examples of AI being used to offer fitness advice, supplement athletic coaching, and create everyday exercise routines. The results of these studies demonstrate a positive outlook on using AI for strength and conditioning applications, for personal and professional use. Despite having the potential to replace personal fitness trainers for everyday users and athletes alike, more extensive research should be performed using AI combined with physicians, personal trainers, and nutritionists to determine areas where AI can be further optimized. More research focusing on the effectiveness of AI-generated routines for the everyday user may further validate the potential for chatbot-mediated exercise. This brief review aims to evaluate the efficacy of AI-generated personalized fitness regimens, emphasizing physical fitness, athletic performance, and overall physical and mental well-being.

Communication is vital for children’s development, especially in differentiating rural and urban speech skills. The aim of this study is to investigate the speech skills of children living in rural and urban areas. The speech skills of 72 students attending the 8th grade in rural and urban areas of Iskenderun in the 2020-2021 academic year were examined. In the study designed with the screening model, the data were collected with a structured observation form. The video recordings of the speeches made by the students on the topic of “human and nature” according to their levels were taken and evaluated according to the “Speech Evaluation Form”. The results of the present research revealed that the highest average scores of the students belonged to the sub-dimensions of applying the external structural elements of the language, applying the internal structural elements of the language and the psychological state of the speaker. In addition, it was determined that the students’ speech skills were at a moderate level, whereas their ability to briefly introduce the parts of the speech, to start the topic with interesting expressions, to use appropriate tools such as pictures, graphs and photographs that can make the speech interesting, to use proverbs, idioms and aphorisms suitable for the topic, to benefit from literary devices suitable for the topic and to summarize the speech were very low. Urban students demonstrated comparatively stronger speech skills, highlighting the value of targeted improvements in communication education.

Published: January 2024

Background and Study Aim. Military conflicts present unique educational challenges and complexities for students specializing in physical education. These conditions can profoundly impact their professional preparedness and alter their educational priorities. Thus, this study aims to assess the level of professional preparedness of physical education student-teachers living in areas of military conflict.
Materials and Methods. Three Ukrainian universities contributed students to the study, two from the eastern conflict zones (including Kharkiv) and one from the western shelling-prone area (Ivano-Frankivsk), with a total of 157 participants (61 male, 96 female). The survey 'Level of Professional Preparedness of Physical Education Student-Teachers', containing 39 questions, was used. For statistical analysis, the PyCharm CE development environment and various Python programming language libraries were utilized.
Results. Statistical evaluation using the Kruskal-Wallis test revealed notable differences in student responses among the university groups. Further analysis using the Mann-Whitney test for each pair of universities revealed differences between pairs of groups. However, there are no statistically significant differences between universities 1 and 2 from Kharkiv (war zone). The fewest correct answers were received on the question about the influence of a teacher's professional qualities on the overall growth of a student and the question about the atmosphere for learning.
Conclusions. The professional competencies of physical education teachers play an important role in the educational process. It is noted that there is a need to improve teacher training in various aspects, including the impact of their professional qualities on student success.

Authors: Carvalho Gabriel Lincoln Lopes , Silva Emmanoel Marques da , Silveira José Augusto Ribeiro da , Canova César Renato , Negrão Ana Gomes 
Published: January 2024

The form of the built environment, walkability, and society are directly related, being points that influence not only mobility but several structural areas of a city, ranging from its social dynamics as well as the health of individuals, local and global politics, economy, comfort, safety, the identity of spaces, attractiveness and several other influencing factors. The perception of passers-by is influenced by several aspects, such as lighting, sense of safety, the width of sidewalks, attractiveness of facades and of the public space itself, as well as the potential of the space to promote social interaction, which is one of the essential focuses of contemporary urban planning. This research has the general objective of listing the essential factors when analyzing the walkability of spaces, discussing the aspects of the form of the built environment that favors walkability, thus expressing concepts, indexes, methods, and studies that enable and contextualize pedestrian mobility and its relationship with users, urban form and its potentials. As a methodological contribution, bibliographic review research was used, using studies already done in the thematic axes to systematize and generate the result that meets the objectives of the work. Therefore, a dynamic portrait was obtained concerning walkability and its multisystemic relations with the city, as well as applications in techniques and methods of urban studies.
On the Use of Instrumental and Macroseismic Data to Evaluate Ground-Motion Models: The 2019 Mw 6.4 Durres, Albania, Earthquake Sequence
Authors: Xhafaj Edlira , Ma Kuo-Fong , Chan Chung-Han , Gao Jia-Cian 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
In this study, we analyze the existing ground-motion models (GMMs) applicable in Albania for horizontal peak ground acceleration (PGA) and spectral acceleration (SA) using instrumental ground motions, and also incorporate online citizen responses from “Did you feel it?” (DYFI) to compensate for the sparse distribution of strong-motion stations and provide better constraints for near-fault motions. Our evaluation focuses primarily on the damaging 26 November 2019 Mw 6.4 Durres earthquake, incorporating 1360 DYFI online citizen responses collected after the Durres mainshock event, along with two significant September foreshocks and two large November aftershocks with a moment magnitude Mw&gt;5.0. In general, the DYFI intensities exhibit higher values than instrumentation data, and we find that SA at 0.3 s better represents the observed macroseismic intensities for all events. In the meantime, the reversible relationships between macroseismic intensities and PGA/SA, as established by Oliveti et al. (2022) based on a dataset from the European region (Italy), show a better fit for the converted DYFI observations when compared to instrumental data, in contrast to the fit of the converted DYFI observations by Worden et al. (2012). This underscores the importance of regional characterization when considering the datasets from online citizen responses. The extensive DYFI intensities set, particularly in near-fault regions, significantly improves the evaluation of GMMs due to the sparse distribution of instrumentation data. Moreover, we account for data variance, and applied the log-likelihood approaches to select and rank a candidate set of GMMs. In addition to recommending a set of GMMs suitable for the Albania region, our study highlights the valuable applications of using online citizen responses like DYFI for ground-motion estimations, which are crucial in regions with limited instrumental station coverage. These online citizen response datasets contribute to better constraining the selection of GMMs, although careful consideration is necessary when relating intensity to ground motion for regional characterization. Our study makes a significant contribution to GMM selection and provides a valuable reference for the logic tree structure in subsequent seismic hazard assessments on both national and regional scales.

Published: January 2024

Abstract
This article documents a comprehensive subsurface imaging experiment using seismic waves in a well-studied outdoor laboratory at Newberry, Florida, which is known for significant spatial variability, karstic voids, and underground anomalies. The experiment used approximately two kilometers of distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) fiber-optic cable, forming a dense 2D array of 1920 horizontal-component channels, and a 2D array of 144 SmartSolo three-component nodal seismometers, to sense active-source and passive-wavefield seismic waves. The active-source data were generated using a powerful, triaxial vibroseis shaker truck (T-Rex) and impact sources (accelerated weight drop and an eight-pound sledgehammer) that were simultaneously recorded by both the DAS and nodal seismometers. The vibroseis truck was used to excite the ground in three directions (two horizontal and one vertical) at 260 locations inside and outside the instrumented array, whereas the impact sources were used at 268 locations within the instrumented array. The passive-wavefield data recorded using the nodal seismometers comprised 48 hr of ambient noise collected over a period of four days in four 12-hour time blocks, whereas the passive wavefield data collected using DAS consisted of four hours of ambient noise recordings. This article aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the testing site, experiment layout, the DAS and nodal seismometer acquisition parameters, and implemented raw data processing steps. Although potential use cases, such as surface-wave testing, full-waveform inversion, and ambient noise tomography, are discussed relative to example data, the focus of this article is on documenting this unique data set and presenting its initial data quality rather than on generating subsurface imaging results. The raw and processed data, along with detailed documentation of the experiment and Python tools to aid in visualizing the DAS data set, have been made publicly available.
Bridging Supervised and Unsupervised Learning to Build Volcano Seismicity Classifiers at Kilauea Volcano, Hawaii

Published: January 2024

Abstract
Real-time classification of volcano seismicity could become a useful component in volcanic monitoring. Supervised learning provides a powerful means to achieve this but often requires a large amount of manually labeled data. Here, we build supervised learning models to discriminate volcano tectonic events (VTs), long-period events (LPs), and hybrid events in Kilauea by training with pseudolabels from unsupervised clustering. We test three different supervised models, and all of them achieve &gt;93% accuracy. We apply the model ensemble to the six-day seismicity during the eruption in 2018 and show that they were mainly VTs (62%), in comparison with the dominance of LPs prior to the eruption (68%). The success of our method is aided by the accuracy of the majority of pseudolabels and the consistency of the three models’ performance. Using Shapley additive explanations, we show that the frequency contents at 1–4 Hz are the most important to differentiate volcano seismicity types. This work, together with our previous clustering analysis, provides an example of bridging unsupervised and supervised learning to construct potential real-time seismic classifiers from scratch.
Modern possibilities of phytotherapy for male infertility from the standpoint of evidence-based medicine
Authors: Bratchikov Oleg I. , Tyuzikov Igor A. , Grekov Evgeniy A. 
Published: January 2024

Introduction: Male infertility is an topical medical and social problem of modern reproductive medicine. Its pharmacotherapy is often empirical in nature, and the most popular method remains the use of various herbal substances (phytotherapy), the effectiveness of which remains still understudied in the framework of evidence-based medicine.
Materials and Methods: The results of research, thematic, systematic and Cochrane reviews and meta-analyses were searched in Medline/PubMed medical databases over the past 5 years using the search queries "plants male infertility", "plants sperm", "phytotherapy male infertility", "phytomedicinal therapeutics male infertility", "systematic review", "meta-analysis", and "review".
Results: The vast majority of herbal substances offered for the treatment of male infertility demonstrate insufficient or contradictory evidence base for their clinical effectiveness, although some of them can be very useful pharmacotherapeutic options in the combined therapy of male infertility.
Conclusion: Not all plant substances with a "reproductive effect" positioned in them actually have proven reproductive effects in studies in humans, therefore, the choice of phytotherapeutic agents in the treatment of idiopathic male infertility should be currently approached extremely carefully, especially in cases when we choose phytotherapy as an option for empirical monotherapy of male reproductive disorders.

Background: Rural poultry farmers are gradually changing from the backyard poultry production to intensive production, which made poultry more vulnerable to diseases and lead to indiscriminate use of antimicrobials in poultry production. As per OIE, FAO and WHO, multiple spread antimicrobial resistant pathogenic bacteria are a serious global human and animal health problem. Hence the study has been carried out to know the antimicrobial resistance status of poultry in Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu, India. Methods: The study was aimed to find the occurrence of extended spectrum beta lactamases (ESBLs) producing E. coli from poultry origin. Caecum samples from the broiler (n=180), desi chicken (n=180) and Japanese quail (n=180) were processed for the isolation and phenotypic identification of ESBL E. coli. The isolates were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility test and characterization of ESBL and virulence genes done by PCR. Result: On phenotypic confirmation of ESBL producing E. coli by combined disk diffusion test (CDDT), a total of 9.63% samples were positive for extended spectrum beta lactamase producer (ESBL). Multi drug resistance (MDR) was observed in 38.23% of the broiler isolates, 27.27% and 57.14% in desi chicken and Japanese quail isolates, respectively. All the phenotypically confirmed ESBL producing E. coli isolates (n=52) were positive for uspA gene by PCR confirming the isolates as E. coli. The overall presence of the blaTEM gene was 57.69%, with broiler isolates having the highest prevalence of 67.47%, followed by desi chicken 36.36% and Japanese quail 42.85%. In contrast, the blaSHV gene was found in only 17.64% of the broiler isolates, but none were positive for the blaCTXM and blaOXA-1 gene.

Background: Infestation of the mite Sarcoptes scabiei var. cuniculi is one of the most frequent skin diseases in rabbits all over the world. Disease is characterized by intense pruritus, alopecia, erythema, scales and crusts around the head, neck, trunk, feet, ears, nose and genitals, resulting in hypertensive reactions, considerable losses in body weight and productivity causing significant economic losses in rabbit production. Methods: This study is aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Nerium oleander extract against S. scabiei var. cuniculi mite in vitro. Acaricidal bioassay, a dipping method was conducted on mites isolated from naturally infested rabbits. PBS and ivermectin were used as the negative and positive controls, respectively. In addition, three different concentrations of extract (100, 200 and 400 μg/ml) weretested at different periods and changes over time in the viability of mites were registered for (0.5, 1, 2, 4 and 8 hours). A chemical assay was performed via GC-MS to investigate the presence of several anticipated active chemical compounds in Nerium oleander leaf extract. Result: The results showed that the extract had high efficacy in killing mites at 100%, 78% and 49% and ivermectin 91%, respectively, for 8 hours. The results indicate that Nerium oleander possesses effective compounds as a valuable therapeutic method for treating scabies. Further studies are needed to determine the precise active chemicals present in Nerium oleander leaf extract and their modes of action and application in vivo.
