Breaking the Taboo
Authors: Piper Kevin 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
Research has shown that student silence poses one of greatest challenges in the teaching of race. This article reports on a small one-year study that examined the value of using anonymous student feedback to teach race in the context of Indigenous literatures. The author's experience suggests that the collection of anonymous student feedback opens up a back channel of unconditional love between students and instructors, where students’ authentic beliefs and ideas are neither judged nor evaluated, thus empowering them to discover a sense of agency in the ongoing conversation around race.
Common Markers of Muscle Damage Are Associated with Divergent Gene Expression Patterns after Eccentric Contractions
Authors: DEYHLE MICHAEL R. , TIEDE DAKOTA , XIN LING , HYLDAHL ROBERT D. , HUBAL MONICA J. 
Published: January 2024

ABSTRACT

Purpose
Unaccustomed eccentric (ECC) exercise evokes exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD). Soreness, strength loss, and serum creatine kinase (CK) are often used to quantify EIMD severity. However, changes in these markers are not fully understood mechanistically. To test the hypothesis that muscle damage markers are associated with unique molecular processes, we correlated gene expression responses with variation in each marker post-ECC.

Methods
Vastus lateralis biopsies were collected from 35 young men 3 h post-ECC (10 sets of 10 maximal eccentric contractions; contralateral leg [CON] as control). Maximal isometric strength, soreness, and serum CK activity were assessed 24 h preexercise and every 24 h for 5 d post-ECC. Strength was also measured 10 min post-ECC. Over the 5 d after ECC, average peak strength loss was 51.5 ± 20%; average soreness increased from 0.9 ± 1.9 on a 100-mm visual analog scale to 39 ± 19; serum CK increased from 160 ± 130 to 1168 ± 3430 U·L−1. Muscle RNA was used to generate gene expression profiles. Partek Genomics Suite correlated peak values of soreness, strength loss, and CK post-ECC with gene expression in ECC (relative to paired CON) using Pearson linear correlation (P < 0.05) and repeated-measures ANOVA used to detect influence of ECC.

Results
After ECC, 2677 genes correlated with peak soreness, 3333 genes with peak strength loss, and 3077 genes with peak CK. Less than 1% overlap existed across all markers (16/9087). Unique genes included 2346 genes for peak soreness, 3032 genes for peak strength loss, and 2937 genes for peak CK.

Conclusions
The largely unique molecular pathways associated with common indirect markers of EIMD indicate that each marker of “damage” represents unique mechanistic processes.
PENSAMENTO SOCIAL, ESTEREÓTIPOS E VIAGENS TURÍSTICAS: UM ESTUDO SOBRE A PERSPECTIVA DE BAIANOS E CARIOCAS
Authors: Pereira Mendonça Anderson , Oliveira Braga Vitor 
Published: January 2024

O presente estudo visa elucidar o pensamento social e os estereótipos que cariocas e baianos possuem a respeito de viagens turísticas a partir de um estudo quase-experimental no qual foram ativados diferentes perfis de turistas/viajantes, verificando uma causalidade a partir da variável-critério (ato de viajar). Os resultados do estudo apontaram para uma valorização do grupo externo (estereótipo positivo) e uma menor valorização do próprio grupo (estereótipo negativo) na perspectiva dos respondentes de ambos os grupos estudados, ratificando a ideia de que as Representações Sociais gerenciam os estereótipos, explicando uma semelhança na estruturação do Pensamento Social. Neste sentido, torna-se fundamental salientar que esta pesquisa também teve como objetivo a integração dos modelos de cognição e modelos do pensamento social, proporcionando, assim, uma maior compreensão dos fenômenos psicossociais, uma vez que há uma interligação dos conceitos desses dois campos epistemológicos.

Authors: Shi Qiong , Wu Ruo-Jun , Liu Jiang 
Published: January 2024

BACKGROUND
Vestibular dysfunction (VH) is a common concomitant symptom of late peripheral vestibular lesions, which can be trauma, poisoning, infection, heredity, and neurodegeneration, but about 50% of the causes are unknown. The study uses the information-motivation-behavioral skills (IMB) model for health education, effectively improve the quality of life, increase their self-confidence, reduce anxiety and depression, and effectively improve the psychological state of patients.
AIM
To explore the effect of health education based on the IMB model on the degree of vertigo, disability, anxiety and depression in patients with unilateral vestibular hypofunction.
METHODS
The clinical data of 80 patients with unilateral vestibular hypofunction from January 2019 to December 2021 were selected as the retrospective research objects, and they were divided into the control group and the observation group with 40 cases in each group according to different nursing methods. Among them, the control group was given routine nursing health education and guidance, and the observation group was given health education and guidance based on the IMB model. The changes in self-efficacy, anxiety and depression, and quality of life of patients with unilateral VH were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS
There was no significant difference in General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) scale scores between the two groups of patients before nursing (P > 0.05), which was comparable; after nursing, the GSES scale scores of the two groups were higher than those before nursing. The nursing group was higher than the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the scores of Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and anxiety and depression subscales between the two groups before nursing (P > 0.05). After nursing, the HADS score, anxiety, and depression subscale scores of the two groups of patients were lower than those before nursing, and the nursing group was lower than the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). After nursing, the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) scale and DHI-P, DHI-E and DHI-F scores in the two groups were decreased, and the scores in the nursing group were lower than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
Health education based on the IMB model can effectively improve patients' quality of life, increase self-efficacy of patients with unilateral vestibular hypofunction, enhance patients' confidence, enable patients to resume normal work and life as soon as possible, reduce patients' anxiety and depression, and effectively improve patients' psychological status.
SNR of a combined mode-locked fiber laser generating conventional and dissipative solitons
Authors: Qian Xinlei , Kong Yong , Jiao Yanhong , Wang Yifan 
Published: January 2024

In this paper, we utilized a combined mode-locked fiber laser including a saturable absorber mirror (SESAM) and nonlinear polarization evolution (NPE) to generate conventional solitons (CSs) and dissipative solitons (DSs), respectively, in order to investigate the difference in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) between the outputs of these two types of solitons in artificial and natural saturators. Both simulation and experimental results demonstrated that, under the shared pump power, the DSs from the NPE-based mode-locked fiber output exhibited a higher SNR of approximately 60 dB, compared to the CSs from the SESAM-based mode-locked fiber output of 45 dB. Furthermore, we conducted theoretical analysis of these results. We believe that this work can provide new approaches for SNR improvement research in the fields of passively mode-locked fiber lasers.

Published: January 2024

BackgroundWhile insurance reimbursements allay a portion of costs associated with cardiac operations, uncovered and additional fees are absorbed by patients. An examination of financial toxicity (FT), defined as the burden of patient medical expenses on quality of life, is warranted. Therefore, the present study used a nationally representative database to demonstrate the association between insurance status and risk of financial toxicity (FT) among patients undergoing major cardiac operations.MethodsAdults admitted for elective coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and isolated or concomitant valve operations were assessed using the 2016–2019 National Inpatient Sample. FT risk was defined as out-of-pocket expenditure >40% of post-subsistence income. Regression models were developed to determine factors associated with FT risk in insured and uninsured populations. To demonstrate the association between insurance status and risk of FT among patients undergoing major cardiac operations.ResultsOf an estimated 567,865 patients, 15.6% were at risk of FT. A greater proportion of uninsured patients were at risk of FT (81.3 vs. 14.8%,p<0.001), compared to insured. After adjustment, FT risk among insured patients was not affected by non-income factors. However, Hispanic race (Adjusted Odds Ratio [AOR] 1.60), length of stay (AOR 1.17/day), and combined CABG-valve operations (AOR 2.31, allp<0.05) were associated with increased risk of FT in the uninsured.ConclusionUninsured patients demonstrated higher FT risk after undergoing major cardiac operation. Hispanic race, longer lengths of stay, and combined CABG-valve operations were independently associated with increased risk of FT amongst the uninsured. Conversely, non-income factors did not impact FT risk in the insured cohort. Culturally-informed reimbursement strategies are necessary to reduce disparities in already financially disadvantaged populations.

Authors: Omachi Bosede Alice , van Onselen Annette , Kolanisi Unathi 
Published: January 2024

Objective
This study explores the contribution of nutrition knowledge to the health status of pre-school children’s mothers in Niger State, North-Central, Nigeria.

Design
The study is a descriptive cross-sectional design using a quantitative data collection method.

Setting/participants
A multi-stage sampling technique was used to recruit 450 mothers of pre-school children across Niger state, Nigeria. Chi-square and linear regression were used to test the level of statistical significance (at p < 0.05). Socioeconomic and demographic information, anthropometric indices and nutrition knowledge were obtained using semi-structured questionnaires. Feeding patterns were also assessed using a qualitative 7-day dietary recall.

Result
The results showed that the majority (63.8%) of the mothers were within 26–35 years, and more than half (51.6%) of the mothers lacked knowledge of a “balanced diet”. Fruits, vegetables, and dairy products were the least consumed food group among the mothers (7.1% and 9.1%, respectively). Place of residence, occupation, and method of waste disposal were significantly associated with maternal minimum dietary diversity adequacy (p<0.05). Over half (57.6%) of the mothers were within the normal BMI range, and the mean waist/hip ratio was 0.82± 0.08. Social media/online was the most (36.4%) explored source of nutrition information among the mothers. This study shows no significant association between nutrition knowledge and adequacy of minimum dietary diversity among the mothers of preschool children (p = 0.09, χ2 = 13.682).

Conclusion
Dietary diversity among mothers was associated with the socioeconomic status and BMI of the mothers, which were strong determinants of meal quality and health outcomes in Nigeria and other developing countries experiencing food insecurity.

Authors: Hassold Andreas Christian , Gavira Narváez Antonio 
Published: January 2024

La movilidad juega un papel esencial en la vida cotidiana de la población, especialmente en el caso de los estudiantes que diariamente se ven obligados a desplazarse hasta sus centros de estudio. Se plantea el presente trabajo con el fin de conocer las conductas de movilidad de los estudiantes del Grado en Geografía e Historia y sus dobles grados de la Universidad Pablo de Olavide, así como el impacto que han tenido las medidas de bonificación de los medios de transporte. La localización de este campus universitario dentro de la aglomeración urbana de Sevilla, aunque fuera de los núcleos de población favorece que sea interesante esta primera aproximación a su estudio. Los resultados obtenidos se han basado en la encuesta realizada a este conjunto de estudiantes, lo que ha permitido conocer que un 79 % se desplaza hasta la universidad en transporte público, mientras que los principales usuarios del vehículo privado son los residentes en municipios del área metropolitana con malas conexiones de transporte público. Por ello, entre otras medidas, se propone mejorar las conexiones de transporte público y crear rutas de autobús en las zonas que no tienen servicio de metro dentro de la ciudad de Sevilla.
An Efficient Adsorption of Safranin O Dye on Ascorbic Acid Coated Nanoparticles: Thermodynamics, Kinetics and Isotherm Studies
Authors: Rani Keerti , Singh Jaiveer , Jangra Arti , Kumar Jai , Kumar Ramesh 
Published: January 2024

In present work, the chemical co-precipitation method was used to prepare the ascorbic acid coated magnetite nanoparticles (AA-MNPs) which were then applied for the elimination of hazardous dye safranin O from the contaminated water. With the help of XRD peaks and Debye-Scherrer equation, the average size of the ascorbic acid coated nanoparticles was found to be 18 nm. These surface coated nanoparticles were further characterized using FTIR, TGA, FESEM and VSM methods. Thus, formed surface functionalized magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) were used for the removal of safranin O dye from the contaminated water, using batch adsorption technique by considering dosage of AA-MNPs, dye concentration, pH of solution and temperature. It was found that synthesized AA- MNPs showed the highest dye removal efficacy (more than 97%) when the dye concentration was taken 50 ppm. Different thermodynamic parameters were measured, including ∆Gº, ∆Hº and ∆Sº. Adsorption of safranin O dye on the surface of AA-MNPs was found to be exothermic and spontaneous, according to thermodynamic parameters. The Freundlich model matched the experimental equilibrium data better, implying a heterogeneous multilayer adsorption on nanoparticles surface, according to the isotherm analysis. Moreover, the investigation of kinetic data suggested a pseudo 2nd order rate for the safranin O dye adsorption process. In addition, a comparative investigation has been made for the efficacy of the removal of safranin O dye by ascorbic acid coated magnetic nanoparticles with the adsorbents that have previously been reported.

Authors: Manjula S. , Mohanraj K. , Sivakumar G. 
Published: January 2024

In this study, nanoparticles of quaternary chalcogenide Cu2NiSnS4 (CNTS) were prepared by a hydrothermal method to evaluate their electrochemical, photocatalytic and antibacterial performances. The samples were synthesized using aqueous solution of thiourea as a sulfur source without any surfactant assistance. The XRD pattern of the synthesized samples exhibited pure phases of Cu2NiSnS4 nanoparticles corresponding to the cubic structure along the (111) plane. The average crystallite sizes decreased with increasing thiourea concentrations. FESEM analysis revealed that the optimized sample exhibited nanosheets with bundle-like structures. The oxidation states of quaternary chalcogenide nanoparticles, such as Cu2+, Ni2+ and Sn4+ were confirmed by XPS technique. The bandgap value of the synthesized sample was estimated at 1.35 eV. The cyclic voltammetry profiles exhibited pseudocapacitive characteristics, whereas the charge-discharge investigation of the CNTS-10 electrode yielded the highest capacitance value of 374 Fg-1 under a low scan rate. The degradation efficiency of two different dyes e.g. methylene blue (MB) and crystal violet (CV) was investigated by photocatalytic measurements and the optimized sample CNTS-10 exhibited the highest efficiencies of 88% and 82% respectively. The antibacterial activity results clearly showed that a maximum inhibition rate (22 mm for 100 µg/mL) was found for Vibrio parahaemolyticus against other pathogenic bacteria.

Published: January 2024

The primary objective of this study is to synthesize polymeric adsorbents and assess the analytical effectiveness of novel organic composites using the batch mode of adsorption. Hence, the organic polymers were prepared by doping the Schiff bases on polyaniline chloride by chemical oxidation method. The prepared polymeric composites were characterized using UV-visible, FT-IR and 1H NMR spectral techniques. An attempt was made to investigate adsorption capacity of synthesized polymers for the removal of mercuric ion by varying the various factors such as initial concentration of adsorbates, temperature, contact time, pH, concentration of adsorbents. Sorption isotherms were constructed using Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin Radush Kevich, Temkin and Redlich Peterson models. The SEM micrograph and PXRD spectra were also recorded to confirm the metal ion adsorption on the surface of investigated composites.

In present work, L-valine-based new chiral derivatives were prepared by introducing hydrophobic groups. The prepared derivatives were then used to prepare quinoline-based chiral reagents under mild amidation reaction and esterification reaction. Spectroscopic techniques, such as HRMS, FT-IR, 1H NMR and CHNS analysis, were used to characterize the synthesized chiral reagents. The synthesized series of reagents was then used to derivatize diastereomers of racemic mexiletine and these diastereomers were separated using the RP-HPLC (a derivatization approach of enantioseparation). The mobile phase for the analysis consisted of acetonitrile and buffer solution. The impact of modifying mobile phase pH and concentrations was optimized to separate diastereomers. The lowest energy-minimize optimized diastereomer structures, as well as the design of separation processes and elution orders, were also developed through the use of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Following ICH guidelines, the limits of detection (0.161 ng/mL) and quantification (0.483 ng/mL) were determined, together with the retention-factor (k), selectivity-factor (α), resolution-factor (RS) and technique validation.

Cellular covers of divisible uniserial modules over valuation domains
Authors: Fuchs László , Goldsmith Brendan , Salce Luigi , Strüngmann Lutz 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
Cellular covers which originate in homotopy theory are considered here for a very special class: divisible uniserial modules over valuation domains. This is a continuation of the study of cellular covers of divisible objects, but in order to obtain more substantial results, we are restricting our attention further to specific covers or to specific kernels. In particular, for h-divisible uniserial modules, we deal first with covers limited to divisible torsion-free modules (Section 3), and continue with the restriction to torsion standard uniserials (Sections 4–5). For divisible non-standard uniserial modules, only those cellular covers are investigated whose kernels are also divisible non-standard uniserials (Section 6). The results are specific enough to enable us to describe more accurately how to find all cellular covers obeying the chosen restrictions.
