Published: January 2024

Regular physical activity practice provides benefits and improves quality of life (QOL). The purpose of this study was to know the level of QOL of older adults who practice physical activity. The study was quantitative, descriptive and cross-cutting with accidental sampling, with 554 participants of which 37.2% (n=206) are men and 62.8% (n=348) women, with an average age of around 65 years (M=64.9; DT=10.3). To know the QOL of the sample members, the WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire was used, 26 items and four dimensions, with five-option Likert scale responses (1-5). Regarding statistics, Cronbach alpha, Pearson linear correlation, t-Student, ANOVA, Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Levene test were applied with SPSS 25.0 for Windows. Regarding the results, it should be noted that the environment dimension was the best valued followed closely by the psychological health dimension and the worst valued was social relationships. There were no significant differences in sex. In terms of age, when one gets older, psychological health and the environment decrease, while increasing social relationships. In conclusion, older adults with academic qualifications had better values in psychological health and in the environment.

Authors: Jaberi Akbar , Zagalaz-Sánchez María Luisa 
Published: January 2024

Objectives: Given the great significance of psychological concepts in explaining consumers’ behavior in sport settings, the aim of this study was to provide a sport psycho-branding model including self-definitional needs, brand equity, and brand preference.
Methods: A field study was conducted at 521 FC Persepolis football fans in Iran to fulfil the research objectives. Data was collected by distributing a valid and reliable questionnaire at weekday home competition of FC Persepolis team. The research sample was selected through convenience sampling from the fans who attended the games of FC Persepolis from January to February 2022.
Results: A Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling revealed that: (a) self-definitional need principles were significantly related to the brand equity of FC Persepolis team, and (b) the brand equity was a significant predictor of fans’ brand preference. The findings highlight the significance of the fans’ psychological needs in improving the brand positioning of football teams.
Conclusions: The proposed sport psycho-branding model includes self-definitional principles to facilitate the development of brand equity and the brand preference through an integrated model in football setting. This may be the first attempt to study these constructs through an integrated model in the branding process of a football team.
Objetivo: El objetivo es proporcionar un modelo de psicomarca deportiva que incluya necesidades de autodefinición, valor y preferencia.
Método: Se realizó un estudio en 521 seguidores del FC Persepolis (Irán). Los datos se recopilaron mediante un cuestionario para conocer la competencia local semanal del equipo. La muestra se seleccionó por conveniencia entre los seguidores que asistieron a los partidos del FC Persepolis de enero a febrero de 2022.
Resultados: Un modelo de ecuación estructural de mínimos cuadrados parciales reveló que: 1. los principios de necesidad de autodefinición (prestigio, similitud y distintivo de identidad) se relacionaron significativamente con el valor de marca del equipo FC Persepolis; 2. el valor de marca es predictor significativo de la preferencia de los aficionados. Destaca la importancia de las necesidades psicológicas de los aficionados para mejorar el posicionamiento de marca de los equipos de fútbol.
Conclusiones: El modelo incluye principios de necesidad de autodefinición para facilitar el desarrollo del valor de la marca y su preferencia a través de una representación integrada en el entorno del fútbol, lo que puede ser el primer intento de estudiar estos constructos mediante un arquetipo integrado en el proceso de marca de un equipo de fútbol.

Published: January 2024

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:
The COVID-19 pandemic led to approximately half of the working population in the United Kingdom being unable to work temporarily. This study aims to understand the employment needs and experiences of people with multiple sclerosis (MS) in the UK during this period.

METHODS:
Multiple methods were used, including an online survey and follow-up interviews with people with MS who were employed prior to the start of the pandemic restrictions in March 2020.

RESULTS:
The online survey was completed by 101 eligible participants and we interviewed 15 of them for qualitative data in the follow-up. Survey data indicated that the work experience of people with MS improved during the pandemic because they were allowed to work from home. However, participants experienced increased feelings of anxiety and loneliness. From the interviews, we extracted 5 themes: (1) the benefits of working from home; (2) the challenges of working during the COVID-19 pandemic; (3) the relevance of managers; (4) returning to “normal”; and (5) the need for vocational support.

CONCLUSIONS:
The pandemic showed that MS symptom management was improved by work flexibility (eg, working from home, breaks, flexible working hours); for people with MS, these accommodations improved both their ability to work and their self-perceived productivity. Future research should explore the support needs of people with MS who work remotely and determine whether pandemic-influenced work accommodations are sustainable over time.
Validity and reliability of a repeated multi-changes of direction agility test in senior soccer players
Authors: Brahim Mehdi Ben , García-Valverde Adrián , Yasin Hussain , Sal-de-Rellán Alejandro 
Published: January 2024

Background
This study aimed to evaluate the validity, reliability, and sensitivity of repeated multi-changes of direction agility test (rMCOD) compared to a soccer-specific field test of repeated sprint ability (S-RSA) and repeated sprint ability test (RSA).

Methods
Thirty-five healthy male soccer players (age: 18.4 ± 1.3 years) from Tunisan national soccer league (elite and sub-elite) took part in this study. They performed the tests in a randomized order over five sessions interspaced by at least 72 h. The construct, predictive and discriminant validity, relative and absolute reliability, and sensitivity of the tests were analyzed. The total and best time of the test (the sum for all trials and the trial with the lowest duration on nine, six, and seven attempts for rMCOD, RSA, and S-RSA, respectively), fatigue index, rating of perceived exertion (RPE), and lactate concentration were recorded.

Results
rMCOD correlated with both, S-RSA and RSA in total time (r = 0.85 and r = 0.52, respectively) and fatigue index (r = 0.74 and r = 0.83, respectively). Receiver operator characteristics were not able to discriminate between group levels (elite and sub-elite). When comparing training levels, only the fatigue index in S-RSA showed a difference between groups. Fatigue index, total time, and the best time in rMCOD showed excellent reliability, as well as the minimal change detectable (MCD = 0.89, MCD = 0.63, and MCD = 0.11, respectively) was higher than the standard error of the mean (SEM = 0.32, SEM = 0.23, and 0.04, respectively).

Conclusion
rMCOD showed large to very large predictive validity compared with the S-RSA and RSA, being a reliable test for the following parameters: the best time and total time to perform the test. Nevertheless, this study design cannot ensure whether or not this test is able to detect real changes in performance in response to training since it did not include a training intervention; besides, rMCOD could not distinguish between elite and sub-elite players, which is a limitation.
Basal leptin concentrations in women with normal and dysfunctional ovarian conditions
Authors: Takeuchi T , Tsutsumi O 
Published: April 2003

AbstractObjective: To determine whether leptin is involved in ovarian function. Methods: Fasting serum samples were obtained from 20 women with normal menstrual cycles who were either obese or non‐obese: 12 non‐obese patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), 8 obese patients with PCOS, 10 patients with stress‐related hypothalamic amenorrhea, and 8 patients with weight loss‐related hypothalamic amenorrhea. Results: Serum leptin levels were strongly related to body mass index (BMI) in each group, but there was no difference in the mean serum leptin levels among the BMI‐matched study groups. A significant difference in the mean serum leptin levels was found between the non‐obese and obese control groups (P<0.001) and between the non‐obese and obese PCOS groups (P<0.00 1). Conclusions: These findings indicate that circulating leptin levels in women with normal menstrual cycles and those with ovarian dysfunction are strongly related to BMI. Leptin does not appear to be primarily involved in regulating ovarian function.
Intracervical Foley catheter balloon vs. prostaglandin in preinduction cervical ripening
Authors: Niromanesh S. , Mosavi‐Jarrahi A. , Samkhaniani F. 
Published: April 2003

AbstractObjectives: The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of the intracervical Foley balloon catheter and 3 mg prostaglandin E2 tablet(s) in preinduction cervical ripening. Methods: Ninety women referred to the maternity clinic for induction of labor with a Bishop score of less than or equal to 5 were randomized to receive an intracervical Foley catheter or prostaglandin E2 tablets. The primary measured outcome was ripening of the cervix as measured with the Bishop score. Results: There were no differences in mean Bishop scores between the prostaglandin and the Foley catheter groups. Bishop scores (mean±S.D.) after ripening were 6.6±0.80 and 6.7±0.86 for the Foley catheter and prostaglandin groups, respectively (P=0.54). The Foley catheter group showed a statistically shorter time to ripening compared with the prostaglandin group (3.4±2.1 and 6.5±3.2 h, respectively (P=0.001). There was no statistically significant difference in induction time (4.8±1.8 h and 5.3±2.4 h, respectively (P=0.36). Conclusions: There are no differences in preinduction cervical ripening efficacy between prostaglandin E2 and the Foley catheter, but the Foley catheter has the advantage of ripening an unfavorable cervix in a shorter time.

AbstractObjectives: To assess the suitability of cervical cancer screening in family planning (FP) clinics and the relevance for women's health. Methods: A survey was done on clients visiting the clinics of the Family Planning Association of Kenya (FPAK). Client characteristics, age, screening status and PAP smear results were registered. In‐depth interviews were held with a limited number of staff and clients. Results: In 1999, 38 052 clients visited FPAK clinics, 43.5% were younger than 30 years old. More than 10 000 cervical smears were taken. A total of 4.5% of the smears were abnormal, including 1.5% high‐grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) and 0.2% invasive cancers. The clinics were well prepared to provide high quality screening services. Patients and staff had a positive view on screening. Conclusions: Providing cervical cancer screening in FP clinics is beneficial for the clients but is unlikely to have an impact on the epidemiology of cervical cancer morbidity as FP services reach only a small percentage of the women who are most at risk. Measures to reach more and older women could assure a larger impact.
Medical errors: legal and ethical responses
Authors: Dickens B.M. 
Published: April 2003

AbstractLiability to err is a human, often unavoidable, characteristic. Errors can be classified as skill‐based, rule‐based, knowledge‐based and other errors, such as of judgment. In law, a key distinction is between negligent and non‐negligent errors. To describe a mistake as an error of clinical judgment is legally ambiguous, since an error that a physician might have made when acting with ordinary care and the professional skill the physician claims, is not deemed negligent in law. If errors prejudice patients’ recovery from treatment and/or future care, in physical or psychological ways, it is legally and ethically required that they be informed of them in appropriate time. Senior colleagues, facility administrators and others such as medical licensing authorities should be informed of serious forms of error, so that preventive education and strategies can be designed. Errors for which clinicians may be legally liable may originate in systemically defective institutional administration.
Laminaria and sulprostone in second trimester pregnancy termination for fetal abnormalities
Authors: Chung Y.P , Hwa H.L , Ko T.M 
Published: April 2003

AbstractThe efficacy and safety of intracervical placement of laminaria and intravenous prostaglandin E2 (sulprostone) infusion for termination of second‐trimester pregnancies with abnormal fetuses was investigated. One hundred and six pregnant women at 13–29 weeks' gestation with fetal anomalies underwent laminaria tent insertion into the cervical canal on admission. The next morning, Sulprostone infusion was started at a rate of 16 μg/h and increased by 16 μg/h every 30 min to induce uterine contractions. Induction‐to‐abortion time (IAT), success and complete abortion rates, and sulprostone‐related side effects were registered. The overall success and complete abortion rates within 24 h were 91.5 and 80.2%, respectively. The mean IAT was 12.1±7.6 h. The incidence of nausea and/or vomiting was 17.9%, with 1.7 episodes per case. Diarrhea and fever (9.5%) were not common. Laminaria tent insertion plus sulprostone infusion was an effective and safe regimen for second‐trimester termination of pregnancy with live fetuses.
Maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity associated with transverse lie
Authors: Seffah J.D 
Published: April 2003

AbstractObjective: The aim of this study of transverse lie in labor of patients admitted to Korle Bu Hospital between 1 January 1996 and 30 June 1998, was to identify the methods of delivery, the perinatal and maternal morbidities and mortalities, and to provide recommendations to improve the outcome. Methods: This was a retrospective study of 152 patients who presented at the labor wards with transverse lie. The data sources of this study were the antenatal records, the labor wards delivery record books, the postnatal records and the admission books at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Results: One hundred and forty‐two cases (92.1%) had an emergency cesarean section. The rest had the external version followed by vaginal delivery. There were two maternal deaths resulting from hemorrhage, infections and difficult surgery. There were 25 stillbirths, and 37 of the neonates required hospital admission. Conclusion: Transverse lie carries a high rate of complications in labor. Delivery should be carried out without delay in a hospital well‐equipped for cesarean delivery and assisted vaginal delivery. The complications could be further reduced by early diagnosis during the antenatal period when associated risk factors, such as placenta previa could be diagnosed with the aid of the ultrasound scan. Elective deliveries could then be undertaken. © 1999 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics.

Published: April 2003

AbstractObjective: To determine the effectiveness and safety of the routine use of antibiotic prophylaxis in women undergoing cesarean section. Method: Four hundred and forty‐one women undergoing cesarean sections were randomly assigned either to a single dose of 1 g intravenous cefazolin or placebo after clamping of the umbilical cord. The primary outcome was the development of post‐operative febrile morbidity and the secondary outcomes were infection‐related complications. Result: There were 211 emergency and 230 elective cesarean sections. In the emergency cesarean sections, 34 (30.6%) women developed post‐operative febrile morbidity in the placebo group compared to 11 (11%) women in the cefazolin group. This was a statistically significant difference (P=0.001). Similarly, there were statistically significant differences between the two groups in the development of wound infection (P<0.001), use of therapeutic antibiotics (P=0.001), and post‐operative days in hospital (P=0.003). No statistically significant differences were detected in the development of other infection‐related complications. In the elective cesarean sections, no statistically significant differences were found in post‐operative febrile morbidity and infection‐related complications. There were no serious side effects related to the use of cefazolin. Conclusion: The routine use of a single dose of cefazolin is safe and effective in emergency but not elective cesarean section.
