PurposeRecent studies have shown that physical activity (PA) levels are low among children and adolescents globally. In order to reverse this trend, PA interventions are increasingly favoured. The school setting is the ideal place to address the issues that many children face. The purpose of this study was to (a) The primary focus of this study is to delve into the mediating role played by school-based rope skipping sports participation (SRSP) in the connection between social support and moderate to high-intensity physical activity (MVPA) among school children. (b) Additionally, this research aims to examine the moderating effect of within this pathway.MethodsWe conducted a survey involving 721 adolescents residing in Changsha City. The participants’ ages ranged from 8 to 12 years, with an average age of 9.84 ± 1.535 years. Out of these participants, 406 were boys, and 315 were girls. To assess variables such as social support and autonomous motivation, we employed standardized measurement scales. Subsequently, we analyzed the collected data using various statistical methods, including independent s-amples t-tests, bivariate correlation analysis, descriptive statistical analysis, structural equation modeling (SEM), and the Johnson-Neyman method.ResultsAn independent samples t-test revealed a statistically significant difference in MVPA between genders (p = 0.003 &lt; 0.05), with boys exhibiting a higher level of engagement in MVPA compared to girls, Correlation analysis revealed significant positive associations among several key variables. Specifically, social support demonstrated a noteworthy positive correlation with autonomous motivation (r = 0.331, p &lt; 0.01) as well as school children’s engagement in MVPA (r = 0.308, p &lt; 0.01). Moreover, autonomous motivation displayed a significant positive correlation with school children’s involvement in MVPA (r = 0.459, p &lt; 0.01). The moderating analysis revealed a significant influence of the interaction between increased participation in and social support on school children’s engagement in MVPA.ConclusionSocial support and autonomy support have been proven effective in enhancing school children’s engagement in MVPA. They exert their influence indirectly by fostering autonomous motivation. Notably, robust social support can significantly benefit MVPA school children with high activity requirements, particularly those regularly engaged in MVPA during the school day.

ObjectiveThis study aims to evaluate inpatient services in 49 tertiary comprehensive hospitals using indicators from the diagnosis related groups (DRG) payment system.MethodDRG data from 49 tertiary comprehensive hospitals were obtained from the quality monitoring platform for provincial hospitals, and relevant indicators were identified. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was used to compute the weight of each indicator. The rank sum ratio method was used to calculate the weight rank sum ratio (WRSR) value and the corresponding probit value of each hospital. The hospitals were divided into four grades based on the threshold value: excellent, good, fair, and poor.ResultsEight indicators of the 49 hospitals were scored, and the hospital rankings of indicators varied. The No. 1 hospital ranked first in the indicators of “total number of DRG”, “number of groups”, and “proportion of relative weights (RW) ≥ 2”. The WRSR value of the No.1 hospital was the largest (0.574), and the WRSR value of the No. 44 hospital was the smallest (0.139). The linear regression equation was established: WRSRpredicted =-0.141+0.088*Probit, and the regression model was well-fitted (F = 2066.672, p &lt; 0.001). The cut-off values of the three WRSRspredicted by the four levels were 0.167, 0.299, and 0.431, respectively. The 49 hospitals were divided into four groups: excellent (4), good (21), average (21), and poor (3). There were significant differences in the average WRSR values of four categories of hospitals (p &lt; 0.05).ConclusionThere were notable variances in the levels of inpatient services among 49 tertiary comprehensive hospitals, and hospitals of the same category also showed different service levels. The evaluation results contribute to the health administrative department and the hospital to optimize the allocation of resources, improve the DRG payment system, and enhance the quality and efficiency of inpatient services.

Published: January 2024

IntroductionMucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) constitute a group of progressive and multisystemic inherited metabolic diseases that profoundly affect both the mental health of patients and the wellbeing of their families. This study aims to evaluate the impact of MPS on family functioning and related factors.Methods and resultsTwenty-five patients with MPS, including types I (n = 4), II (n = 11), IIIB (n = 2), IVA (n = 3), and VI (n = 5), and their families participated in this study. The mean patient age was 13 years [standard deviation (SD): 7.7 years]. Behavioral and emotional problems were noted in 9.1% of all patients. While the type of MPS did not directly influence mental problems, the presence of neuronal involvement did (p = 0.006). Patients with MPS III exhibited difficulties primarily in emotional areas, conduct, hyperactivity, and peer problems. Importantly, both patients with MPS II and those with MPS III experienced a significant impact on communication [mean scores for communication domain: MPS II, 35.6 (SD: 24.3); MPS III, 35.0 (SD: 22.6)]; poorer communication was directly linked to worse adaptive behavior (p = 0.012), and worse adaptive behavior was associated with lower quality of life (p = 0.001). Quality of life and caregiver burden among family members did not significantly differ across MPS types; however, higher caregiver burden was negatively associated with quality of life (p = 0.002). Concerning family functioning, the most impacted domains included independence, intellectual/cultural orientation, activity/recreation, and expressiveness. Domain scores did not vary based on MPS type, treatment, or neurological involvement. Quality-of-life scores were positively associated with the cultural/intellectual domain score.ConclusionThe impacts of quality of life and family extend beyond clinical characteristics and MPS type, strongly influenced by patient cognition and communication, as well as type of family functioning, especially those with greater cultural/intellectual skills of their family members. A multidisciplinary approach addressing the broader needs of individuals with MPS becomes essential. Techniques aimed at improving communication, including prompt interventions such as speech therapy and augmentative and alternative communication strategies, can contribute to overall family functioning improvement.

IntroductionFish rest raw material generated from the fish processing industry may be a useful resource for recovery of added value compounds. The application of non-thermal novel technologies can improve the extraction. High-pressure processing (HPP) has long been used for the preservation and extension of the shelf life of seafood. It also constitutes a promising technology for the increased recovery of valuable compounds, such as lipids and proteins. The objective of this study was to assess the yield and the chemical composition of the fractions obtained after enzymatic hydrolysis on a mixture of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) rest raw material pretreated by high-pressure (HP).MethodsSix different pretreatments were applied prior to enzymatic hydrolysis; 600 MPa x 8  min, 600 MPa x 4  min, 400 MPa x 8  min, 400 MPa x 4  min, 200 MPa x 8  min, 200 MPa x 4  min.Results and discusssionThese applied pretreatments did not yield higher oil extraction compared to the control. However, the fish protein hydrolysates (FPH) contained higher amount of protein when compared to the FPH obtained from the control.

The cultivation of rice is one of the main sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions due to continuously flooded irrigation (CF), which demands large volumes of water. As an alternative solution, alternate wetting and drying (AWD) irrigation has been developed as a water-saving strategy. This study was conducted at the Experimental Agricultural Station (EEA) in Vista, Florida, in the Lambayeque region located on the northern coast of Peru. Thus, it was analyzed the effect of AWD irrigation at different depths (5, 10, and less than 20 cm below the surface) compared to CF control on methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions and rice grain yield. AWD treatments reduced CH4 emissions by 84% to 99% but increased N2O emissions by 66% to 273%. In terms of Global Warming Potential (GWP), the AWD10 treatment demonstrated a 77% reduction and a Water Use Efficiency (WUE) of 0.96, affecting only a 2% decrease in rice grain yield, which ranged between 11.85 and 14.01 t ha−1. Likewise, this study provides sufficient evidence for the adoption of AWD irrigation as a strategy for the efficient use of water resources and the mitigation of GHG emissions in rice cultivation in the study area, compared to continuous flooded irrigation.

Published: January 2024

The fast-growing tree, eastern cottonwood (Populus deltoides), currently is being planted to catalyze native forest restoration on degraded agricultural sites in the southeastern United States. Many of these restoration sites are appropriate for short rotation woody crop (SRWC) culture that addresses climate mitigation objectives, but information needed to optimize climate mitigation objectives through such plantings is limited. Therefore, we established a 10-year experiment on degraded agricultural land located in the Mississippi Alluvial Valley, USA, aiming to quantify the dynamics of aboveground carbon (AGC) accumulation in a cottonwood planting of four replicated spacing levels (3.7 × 3.7 m, 2.7 × 1.8 m, 2.1 × 0.8 m, and (0.8 + 1.8) × 0.8 m) aligned with SRWC systems targeting various ecosystem services. Annual sampling revealed a substantial range in increments of AGC and year 10 carbon stocks among stands of different densities. Mean annual increments for AGC (MAIAGC) were similar for the two tightest spacing levels, peaking higher than for the other two spacings at about 7.5 Mg ha−1 y−1 in year 7. Year 10 AGC ranged between 22.3 Mg ha−1 for stands spaced 3.7 × 3.7 m and 70.1 Mg ha−1 for stands of the two tightest spacings, leading us to conclude that a spacing between 2.1 × 0.8 m and 2.7 × 1.8 m would maximize aboveground carbon stocks through year 10 on sites of similar agricultural degradation. Increments and accumulation of AGC on the degraded site trended lower than values reported from more productive sites but illustrate that quick and substantial transformation of the carbon stock status of degraded agricultural sites can be achieved with the application of SRWCs to restore forests for climate mitigation and other compatible ecosystem services.

Background: Major determinants of blood pressure (BP) include sex and age. In youth, females have lower BP than males, yet in advanced age, more pronounced BP increases result in higher average BPs in females over 65. This hypothesis-generating study explored whether age-related BP divergence impacts the incidence of sex-specific intraoperative hypotension (IOH) or hypertension. Methods: We systematically searched PubMed and Embase databases for studies reporting intraoperative BP in males and females in non-cardiac surgery. We analyzed between-sex differences in the incidence of IOH and intraoperative hypertension (primary endpoint). Results: Among 793 identified studies, 14 were included in this meta-analysis, comprising 1,110,636 patients (56% female). While sex was not associated with IOH overall (females: OR 1.10, 95%CI [0.98–1.23], I2 = 99%), a subset of studies with an average age ≥65 years showed increased exposure to IOH in females (OR 1.17, 95%CI [1.01–1.35], I2 = 94%). One study reported sex-specific differences in intraoperative hypertension, with a higher incidence in females (31% vs. 28%). Conclusions: While sex-specific reporting on intraoperative BP was limited, IOH did not differ between sexes. However, an exploratory subgroup analysis offers the hypothesis that females of advanced age may face an increased risk of IOH, warranting further investigation.

The progression of numerous malignancies has been linked to N6-methyladenosine (m6A) alteration. However, the opposite trend of m6A levels in the development and metastasis of cancer has not been reported. This study aimed to evaluate the biological function and mechanism of fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) in regulating m6A modification in prostate cancer development and epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT). An EMT model of LNCaP and PC-3 cells was established with transforming growth factor-β treatment, and FTO knockout cell line was established in prostate cancer cells using the CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology. The level of m6A modification in tumor tissues was higher than that in normal prostate tissues; m6A levels were decreased after EMT. FTO deletion increased m6A expression and enhanced PC-3 cell motility, invasion, and EMT both in vitro and in vivo. RNA sequencing and functional investigations suggested that DDIT4, a novel EMT target gene, plays a role in m6A-regulated EMT, which was recognized and stabilized by the m6A effector IGF2BP2/3. Decreased FTO expression was an independent indicator of worse survival, and the level of DDIT4 was considerably elevated in patients with bone metastasis. Thus, this study revealed that the m6A demethylase FTO can play different roles in prostate cancer as a regulator of EMT and an inhibitor of m6A modification. Moreover, DDIT4 can be suggested as a possible biomarker for prostate cancer metastasis prediction.

Aim. To study the impact of left ventricle (LV) deformation parameters by the two-dimensional strain method to assess the intended use of cardioverter defibrillator implantation for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death.Methods. The study included 133 patients with congestive heart failure NYHA 3-4 functional class with a LV ejection fraction ≤35%, taking optimal drug therapy. The speckle-tracking echocardiography with the estimation of LV deformation indicators (segmental strains, global longitudinal and circular strain [GLS and GCS, respectively]) was carried out, after which the implantation of defibrillator for the purpose of primary prevention of sudden death was performed. The patients enrolled in the study were observed prospectively for two years after the operation (visits to the clinic after 3, 6, 12, 18, 24 months) for the registration of first-time ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VT) paroxysms and assessment of one-year cardiovascular mortality.Results. The arrhythmic endpoint appeared in 27 patients (20%), 19 patients (14%) died due to acute decompensation of heart failure. Comparative analysis of the studied parameters of LV deformation did not reveal statistically significant differences in the groups of survivors and deceased patients. Patients with VT had the worst deformation characteristics. It was found that at absolute values of GLS<6% the risk of the first VT manifestation during the observation period increased almost threefold (odds ratio (OR)=2.59; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.07-6.26; p=0.031). The second independent predictor of the arrhythmic point was the longitudinal strain of the anterior wall (OR=1.28; 95%CI: 1.14-1.45; p=0.0001 for univariate analysis and OR=1.55; 95%CI: 1.18-2.04; p=0.002 for multivariate analysis). Based on the multifactor analysis, which included indicators of myocardial deformation, age, sex, and ischemic heart disease, predictive model was obtained to predict VT with 71% sensitivity and 97% specificity. The area under the curve was 0.916 (95%CI: 0.850-0.981; p=0.0001).Conclusion. LV deformation parameters do not help to predict cardiovascular mortality, but may be useful in stratification of VT risk. To achieve this GLS value as well as the segmental map of regional strains can be used.

Aim. To investigate functional state of mitochondria and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) polymorphism in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with life-threatening cardiac rhythm disorders (CRD).Methods. We investigated venous blood samples of 45 patients with uncomplicated CAD and 120 CAD patients with CRD. Oxygen consumption rate of mitochondrias of leukocytes in V3 and V4 states were determined in pyruvate-malate and succinate buffers, as well as in the presence of palmitic acid (PA). In patients with complicated CAD, mtDNA haplogroup and substitutions in gene encoding proteins of the respiratory chain complexes and mitochondrial rRNA were determined. Statistical analysis was performed using Mann-Whitney, Wilcoxon tests and Chi-square test with Yates’ correction.Results. In CAD and CAD with CRD, oxygen consumption rate of intact mitochondria did not different in either pyruvate-malate or succinate buffers. In uncomplicated CAD, PA supplementation increases oxygen consumption rate by mitochondria in both succinate and pyruvate-malate buffers. The majority of patients (41%) with CAD and CRD were carriers of the haplogroup «H» and, in this indicator, the sample did not differ from patients with uncomplicated CAD. However, mtDNA of patients with complicated CAD was characterized by a more frequent combined carriage of two and more missense substitutions in genes of respiratory chain and rRNA.Conclusion. Mitochondria of patients with coronary artery disease and life-threatening cardiac rhythm disorders have reduced functional reserve. The distribution of frequencies of main mtDNA haplogroups of patients with coronary artery disease with life threatening cardiac rhythm disorders corresponds to the population. The mtDNA of such patients is characterized by a high frequency of carriage of combined polymorphisms in gene of electron transport chain proteins and rRNA.
