Abstract
Objective
Communicating risk information and offering lifestyle advice are important goals in cardiac rehabilitation. However, the most effective way and the most effective source to communicate this information are not yet known. Therefore, we examined the effect of source (cardiologist, physiotherapist) and framing (gain, loss) of brief lifestyle advice on patients’ intention-to-change-lifestyle.

Methods
In an online experimental study, 636 cardiac patients (40% female, 67 (10) yrs.) were randomly assigned to one of four textual vignettes. Effect of source and framing on intention-to-change-lifestyle (assessed using a 5-point Likert scale) was analysed using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA).

Results
Patients expressed positive intention-to-change-lifestyle after receiving advice from the cardiologist (M = 4.1) and physiotherapist (M = 3.9). However, patients showed significantly higher intention-to-change-lifestyle after receiving advice from the cardiologist (0.58 [0.54–0.61]) when compared with the physiotherapist (0.52 [0.48–0.56]), (F[1,609] = 7.06, P = 0.01). Gain-framed and loss-framed advice appeared equally effective. However, communicating risks (loss) was remembered by only 9% of patients, whereas 89% remembered benefits (gain).

Conclusions
Our study shows the value of cardiologists and physiotherapists communicating brief lifestyle advice, as cardiac patients expressed positive intention for lifestyle change after receiving advice, irrespective of framing. Lifestyle advice should include benefits due to better recall.

Samenvatting
Inleiding
Er zijn verschillende mobiele gezondheidsapps beschikbaar voor patiënten met diabetes mellitus type 2 (DMT2). In de huidige diabeteszorg worden deze apps beperkt ingezet door eerstelijnsprofessionals. In dit onderzoek zijn de attitude, barrières en technologiekwalificaties van eerstelijnsprofessionals ten aanzien van mobiele gezondheidsapps in kaart gebracht.

Methode
In een kwalitatief onderzoek zijn semigestructureerde interviews afgenomen bij twaalf eerstelijnsprofessionals. De gebruikte topiclijst was gebaseerd op het Enhanced Technology Acceptance Model en V‑model. De data zijn met ATLAS.ti9 geanalyseerd via een thematische analyse (deductieve codering).

Resultaten
Eerstelijnsprofessionals zien potentie in het gebruik van mHealth voor patiënten met DMT2. De meest door eerstelijnsprofessionals genoemde patiëntgerelateerde barrières zijn: hogere leeftijd van patiënten (> 65 jaar), het ontbreken van digitale vaardigheden en gebrek aan motivatie en kennis bij patiënten. Professionalgerelateerde barrières waren: gebrekkige/ontbrekende koppeling met het huisartsinformatiesysteem en beperkte tijd voor de professional om zich te verdiepen in mHealth. Eerstelijnsprofessionals vinden dat ze voldoende technologiekwalificaties bezitten om patiënten te vertellen en instrueren over mHealth. Hierbij is scholing van belang. Eerstelijnsprofessionals missen informatie om betrouwbare apps te vinden, en om veilig en vaardig met apps te werken.

Conclusie
Eerstelijnsprofessionals hebben een positieve attitude ten aanzien van mHealth. Om mHealth in de huidige diabeteszorg te integreren is het van belang dat professionals technologiekwalificaties ontwikkelen, er voldoende tijd beschikbaar is en er een koppeling is tussen mHealth en bestaande informatiesystemen.
A Qualitative Slope Stability Assessment of Hill Slopes Using Multiple Integrated Approaches Along Bafliaz – Poshiana (Mughal) Road, Jammu and Kashmir

Published: November 2023

Abstract
Transport, communication and socio-economic activities in the hilly areas are completely dependent on the road network. The road network connecting Bafliaz to Shopian town (known as Mughal Road) plays a vital role in the transportation and other activities of the region. It connects the Kashmir Valley with Jammu city and is strategically very important to the country. Almost the entire road length of Mughal Road is vulnerable to landslide incidences and the events of occurrence/recurrence of landslides indicate that the probability of landslide/slope failure is higher along the road cut slopes during the event of antecedent and heavy rainfall and snowfall events. In order to assess the stability of hill slopes, it becomes of utmost importance to understand the failure mechanism along these slopes. In this regard, the slope stability assessment has been carried out by using multiple integrated approaches like the Markland test of kinematic analysis, Geological Strength Index (GSI), Rock mass classification (RMR), and Slope Mass Rating (SMR) at different locations. The type of failure and direction of potential failures for individual slopes have been identified. The obtained results of RMR vary from 23 to 38 after adjustment rating (poor rock mass), SMR from 0 to 54 (very bad to fair rock mass), CSMR from 0 to 53 (very bad to fair rock mass) and the GSI values range from 35 to 45 (poor to fair rock mass). Markland’s test of Kinematic check reveals that planar and wedge failures are the most common phenomenon along the Mughal Road sector.

Published: November 2023

Abstract
This study uses geospatial modeling and Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) to assess the Groundwater Potential Zones (GPZs) in Cachar District, India. Twelve influencing factors, namely Geomorphology, geology, soil type, Land Use Land Cover (LULC), rainfall, slope, drainage density, lineament density, elevation, aspect, Topographic Ruggedness Index (TRI), and Topographic Wetness Index (TWI), are considered, and thematic maps are prepared in Geographical Information System (GIS) platform. To measure the weightages of these factors, Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) and Best Worst Method (BWM) are the MCDA techniques used. The GPZs are generated using weights and reclassified into low, medium, and high zones. The major portion of the region is classified as the medium potential zone, with 64.25% and 63.96% of the total area using AHP and BWM, respectively. The validation with groundwater data for the two GPZ maps reveals that 10 out of 12 locations have been predicted accurately. BWM, with a lesser comparison matrix, performed as efficiently as AHP and has proven to be a better MCDA technique in spatial modeling GPZ for sustainable groundwater conservation.

Published: November 2023

Abstract
Depletion of groundwater levels has become a significant concern worldwide, particularly during dry seasons. The study proposes an innovative and effective method to increase recharge by proposing road drains with the help of geospatial technologies. The study recommends pervious concrete, which allows water to pass through it and recharge the groundwater table. Experiments are carried out with pervious concrete on four different soil types, and the results were analysed using Geographical Information System (GIS) to provide an effective solution for managing water resources in Visakhapatnam. The derived results provide valuable insights into the sustainable management of water resources and improve the overall water utilization efficiency of urban areas. The outcomes of this study drive attention towards the necessity of road drains for groundwater recharge. GIS analysis of the results suggests that in Visakhapatnam alone, a total length of 1,559.94 km of road drains along residential, primary and highway roads can be planned to recharge and conserve a total volume of 3,79,08,762.3 m3/hrs. of groundwater by using the pervious concrete as road drains.

Abstract
Waste rock dumping is a major problem for opencast mine. The key approach to waste rock dump management is its re-use in the form of aggregates, m-sand, etc. which is also the basis of circular economy. The application of multispectral satellite data is considered to be one of the best approaches to characterise the mineral content of the waste rock dumps. In this research, multispectral data from Landsat 9 (OLI) were used to determine the sensitive bands for muscovite schist and gneissic rocks present in the hanging wall and footwall faces of an open-cast manganese mine in India. The behaviour of the spectral signature curves and their association with the surface reflectance values were used to identify these sensitive bands. XRF and XRD were used to identify the minerals of the rocks. The spectral signature reflectance curves obtained from the multispectral data of the identified minerals were compared with the USGS spectral libraries to determine these sensitive bands (bands 4, 5, 6, and 7) for rocks. Applying the band ratio technique, formulae representing the optimal band ratios were developed for mineral mapping. Methods like object-oriented principal component (PC) and independent component (IC) analyses were applied to determine the lithology based on spectral characteristics. False colour composite images in the RGB band combinations (PC4-PC3-PC1) and (IC4-IC2-IC1) were utilised for precise mineral mapping of the area. The methods were also validated with the waste rock dumps of a neighbouring manganese mine having similar geological setting.
Influence of Mineralogy, Organic Matter and Thermal Maturity on the Diagenetic Evolution of Pore Systems in the Shales of Cambay and Raniganj Basin, India

Published: November 2023

Abstract
The mineral composition, organic matter, thermal maturity, and diagenesis control the shale reservoir properties, including the pore distribution, variable fluid distribution, microstructure, heterogeneity, etc. The shale layers of the Cambay Formation and the Raniganj Formation are considered prospective shale gas resources in India. This paper focuses on the detailed analysis of shale from the Cambay Formation (Eocene age) of the Cambay Basin and the Raniganj Formation (Permian age) of the Raniganj Basin, India. The whole rock X-ray diffraction data indicates that quartz is the dominant mineral in both the shales (Raniganj and Cambay shale) of the Raniganj and the Cambay Basin. The main clay minerals are clinochlore, smectite-kaolinite, illite, and kaolinite in the Raniganj shale, while kaolinite, montmorillonite, and illitesmectite are the dominant clay minerals in the Cambay shale. The total organic content (TOC) ranges from 4.97 to 17.88 wt.% and 1.16-7.6% in the Raniganj and Cambay shales respectively. For the studied shale section, the TOC shows a gradual decrease with respect to depth in both shale types. The Raniganj shale has 3.8 to 8.3 percent total porosity, and the Cambay shale contains 1.16 to 6.5% total porosity. The increasing thermal maturity with the higher TOC corresponds to the more developed organic pores in the Raniganj shale. In contrast, the secondary pores are developing in the Cambay shale due to dissolution activities and enhancing the storage capacity. The study infers that the mineral composition and diagenesis are playing a crucial role in the pore system evolution of the shale in both the basins.

Abstract
The metabolic versatility and potential of microbes enables their survival and growth in harsh condition such as sites ravaged by mining activities. The Kapurdi lignite deposit of the Barmer Basin is one of the important Tertiary lignite deposits underlying the Great Indian Thar desert in the north-western part of Rajasthan. The diversity of culturable sulfur oxidizing bacteria (SOB) in Kapurdi and Jalipa lignite mine site, Barmer, Rajasthan was assessed in this study. Bacteria were isolated by plating on selective thiosulfate mineral media, and dominant isolates were identified from their physiological characteristics and 16S rRNA gene sequences. The obligate chemolithotrophic SOB were identified as Thermithiobacillus sp. strain KO11, KO12, KO13 (OP788122, OP788123, OP788124). Whereas heterotrophic SOB was identified as Bacillus sp.strain KO1 (OP788112), Bacillus sp. strain KO2 (OP788113), Bacillus sp.strain KO3 (OP788114), Enterobacter sp.strain KO4, KO5, KO6, KO9 (OP788115, OP788116, OP788117, OP788120), Leclercia sp. Strain KO7 (OP788118), Pantoea sp. strain KO8(OP788119), and Rhodococcussp.strain KO10 (OP788121). The culture condition was optimized for the two most potential SOB i.e., Thermithiobacillus sp. strain KO11 and Leclercia sp. strain KO7. Both the isolates grew well and produced maximum amount of sulfate in thiosulfate mineral media at pH 8.0 and with 40 mM of thiosulfate substrate. Thermithiobacillus sp. strain KO11 had the optimum growth at 45°C indicating its thermophillic nature whereas, Leclercia sp. strain KO7 had optimum growth at 35°C. This study significantly enhances our knowledge of native bacteria in mining impacted environments and their role in biogeochemical cycling of sulfur.

Published: November 2023

AbstractThe large-scale loss of ecosystem assets around the world, and the resultant reduction in the provision of nature’s benefits to people, underscores the urgent need for better metrics of ecological performance as well as their integration into decision-making. Gross ecosystem product (GEP) is a measure of the aggregate monetary value of final ecosystem-related goods and services in a specific area and for a given accounting period. GEP accounting captures the use of many ecosystem services in production processes across the economy, which are then valued in terms of their benefits to society. GEP has five key elements that make it transparent, trackable, and readily understandable: (1) a focus on nature’s contributions to people; (2) the measurement of ecosystem assets as stocks and ecosystem services as flows; (3) the quantification of ecosystem service use; (4) an understanding of ecosystem service supply chains through value realization; and (5) the disaggregation of benefits across groups. Correspondingly, a series of innovative policies based on GEP have been designed and implemented in China. The theoretical and practical lessons provided by these experiences can support continued policy innovation for green and inclusive development around the world.

AbstractPurpose of ReviewPreparing for pandemics requires a degree of interdisciplinary work that is challenging under the current paradigm. This review summarizes the challenges faced by the field of pandemic science and proposes how to address them.Recent FindingsThe structure of current siloed systems of research organizations hinders effective interdisciplinary pandemic research. Moreover, effective pandemic preparedness requires stakeholders in public policy and health to interact and integrate new findings rapidly, relying on a robust, responsive, and productive research domain. Neither of these requirements are well supported under the current system.SummaryWe propose a new paradigm for pandemic preparedness wherein interdisciplinary research and close collaboration with public policy and health practitioners can improve our ability to prevent, detect, and treat pandemics through tighter integration among domains, rapid and accurate integration, and translation of science to public policy, outreach and education, and improved venues and incentives for sustainable and robust interdisciplinary work.

Published: November 2023

Abstract
Background
The workload associated with caring for a person with dementia (PwD) could negatively affect informal caregivers’ physical and mental health. According to the recent literature, there is a need for studies testing the implementation of affordable and accessible interventions for improving caregivers’ well-being.

Aims
This study aimed to explore the feasibility and effectiveness of an 8 week eHealth psychoeducation intervention held during the COVID-19 pandemic in Italy in reducing the psychological burden and neuroendocrine markers of stress in caregivers of PwD.

Methods
Forty-one informal caregivers of PwD completed the eHealth psychoeducation intervention. Self-reported (i.e., caregiver burden, anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, and caregiver self-efficacy) and cortisol measurements were collected before and after the intervention.

Results
Following the intervention, the caregivers’ self-efficacy regarding the ability to respond to disruptive behaviours improved (t = − 2.817, p = 0.007), anxiety and burden levels decreased (state anxiety: t = 3.170, p = 0.003; trait anxiety: t = 2.327, p = 0.025; caregiver burden: t = 2.290, p = 0.027), while depressive symptoms and cortisol levels did not change significantly. Correlation analyses showed that the increase in self-efficacy was positively associated with the improvement of caregiver burden from pre- to post-intervention (r = 0.386, p = 0.014). The intervention had a low rate of dropout (n = 1, due to the patient’s death) and high levels of appreciation.

Discussion
The positive evidence and participation rate support the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed eHealth psychoeducational intervention to meet the need for knowledge of disease management and possibly reduce detrimental effects on caregivers’ psychological well-being.

Conclusion
Further placebo-controlled trials are needed to test the generalizability and specificity of our results.

Published: November 2023

AbstractHumans can perceive our complex world through multi-sensory fusion. Under limited visual conditions, people can sense a variety of tactile signals to identify objects accurately and rapidly. However, replicating this unique capability in robots remains a significant challenge. Here, we present a new form of ultralight multifunctional tactile nano-layered carbon aerogel sensor that provides pressure, temperature, material recognition and 3D location capabilities, which is combined with multimodal supervised learning algorithms for object recognition. The sensor exhibits human-like pressure (0.04–100 kPa) and temperature (21.5–66.2 °C) detection, millisecond response times (11 ms), a pressure sensitivity of 92.22 kPa−1 and triboelectric durability of over 6000 cycles. The devised algorithm has universality and can accommodate a range of application scenarios. The tactile system can identify common foods in a kitchen scene with 94.63% accuracy and explore the topographic and geomorphic features of a Mars scene with 100% accuracy. This sensing approach empowers robots with versatile tactile perception to advance future society toward heightened sensing, recognition and intelligence.
Formative Use of Assessment to Foster Self-Regulated Learning: the Alignment of Teachers’ Conceptions and Classroom Assessment Practices
Authors: van der Linden Jeroen , van der Vleuten Cees , Nieuwenhuis Loek , van Schilt-Mol Tamara 
Published: November 2023

AbstractThis study investigates the pivotal role of self-regulated learning in higher education and explores to what extent teachers’ conceptions of formative assessment influence the development of students’ self-regulated learning skills. Despite the recognised significance of self-regulated learning, many students in higher education lack effective self-regulation strategies. Therefore, the teachers’ role is paramount. We investigated teachers’ beliefs and practices concerning assessment and the influence on self-regulated learning development through qualitative interviews with 16 teachers from different programmes. Findings reveal that teachers, influenced by their conceptions, strive to provide feedback primarily at the task and process levels, not adequately addressing the self-regulation level. While teachers acknowledge the importance of fostering self-regulated learning when inquired, their classroom practices lack a focus on the self-regulation level, often assuming students acquired the necessary skills from previous education. The study underscores a misalignment between teachers’ recognition of the importance of self-regulation learning and their actual practices. Recommendations emphasise the necessity of raising awareness among teachers about the important role of feedback in enhancing students’ self-regulation, addressing the current gap in educational support. Future research should explore how to bridge this awareness-practice gap and create an environment conducive to the development of self-regulated learning.
