Published: March 2023

Public health communication about diet in Inuit communities must balance the benefits and risks associated with both country and store-bought food choices and processes to support Inuit well-being. An understanding of how dietary messages—public health communication addressing the health and safety of country and store-bought food—are developed and disseminated in the Arctic is currently lacking.
As part of the Country Foods for Good Health study, this participatory research sought to characterize dietary messaging in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region (ISR), Northwest Territories (NWT), from the perspective of territorial, regional and local dietary message disseminators to further improve message communication in the region.
We conducted an in-person interview (n=1) (February 2020), telephone interviews (n=13) (May-June 2020), and follow-up telephone interviews (n=5) (June 2021) with key informants about their involvement in developing and/or disseminating dietary messages about the health benefits and risks of country foods and/or store-bought foods in/for the ISR. Key informants interviewed included health professionals (n=5), government employees (n=6) and community nutrition or food program coordinators (n=3) located in Inuvik, Tuktoyaktuk, Paulatuk and Yellowknife, NWT. We conducted a thematic analysis on the 19 interviews.
Our findings indicate that publicly disseminated dietary messages in the ISR are developed at all scales and communicated through a variety of methods. Dietary messages focus predominantly on encouraging healthy store-bought food choices and conveying nutritional advice about store-bought and country foods. As federal and territorial messaging is seldom tailored to the ISR, representation of the Inuvialuit food system and consideration of local food realities is generally lacking. There is a need to evaluate dietary messages and improve collaborations among Inuvialuit country food knowledge holders, researchers, and public health dietary message disseminators at all scales to develop more locally tailored and culturally relevant messaging in the ISR. We recommend utilizing a participatory, collaborative, culture-centered approach to dietary message development and dissemination in northern Indigenous contexts.

Aim. To study cardiovascular risk factors, clinical manifestations and management of myocardial infarction (MI) in elderly and long­living patients depending on geriatric status.Material and methods. Out of 92 patients with MI (mean age, 81,6±4,2), 3 following groups were formed: "frailty" — 35 (38,0%), "prefrailty" — 16 (17,4%), and "no frailty" — 41 (44,6%). The following questionnaires were used: Age Is Not a Hindrance, Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA), Barthel Index for Activities of Daily Living, Lawton Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale, balance test, Gait Speed Test, Timed Up and Go test, grip test, Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), Clock Drawing Test, Geriatric Depression Scale.Results. Frailty probability in patients is higher in the presence of obesity, type 2 diabetes, a decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) <60 ml/min/1,73 m2, a stroke, and heart failure. In the event of clinical manifestations of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), patients without frailty sought medical assistance earlier (in the first 2 hours — 26,8% of patients (χ2=7,8, p=0,005). Most patients with prefrailty and frailty called an ambulance later, but in the first 12 hours — 68,8 and 74,3%, respectively (χ2=15,6, p=0,012). The prevalence of thrombolysis is 23,2%, percutaneous coronary intervention — 30,4% and did not depend on geriatric status. The probability of multivessel disease is higher in patients with or at risk of malnutrition. The main hemodynamic parameters, echocardiography, laboratory parameters in patients with MI did not depend on geriatric status. According to the STOPP/START criteria, frail patients with more often received nonrecommended inhospital medicines.Conclusion. Frailty in patients with MI was associated with multiple cardiovascular risk factors, later medical assistance, and more frequent non-recommended treatment.

Aim. To study modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) among rail transport workers, depending on the place of work: Russian Railways and Moscow Metro.Material and methods. The study involved 2638 workers of locomotive crews: 778 persons worked at Russian Railways, 1860 — Moscow Metro. The workers were offered a questionnaire assessing general data, features of medical activity, and lifestyle. The collection and processing of data was carried out using Microsoft Excel and Statistica programs.Results. The studied groups were comparable in age structure. Slightly above 40% of respondents in both groups currently smoked, while ~70% did not eat enough vegetables. Workers of Russian Railways were 2 times more likely to drink alcohol ≥2 times a week and 1,2 times more likely to eat at fast food restaurants. Also, ~40% of participants in both groups often or always added salt to food, almost 20% did not engage in athletics. Workers of Russian Railways were less physically active. Moscow Metro workers ate less regularly and did not consume enough fruit. The average body mass index of both groups corresponded to overweight.Conclusion. The leading behavioral risk factors for CVD in rail transport workers are insufficient consumption of vegetables and fruits, low physical activity, and smoking. The obtained results will allow to improve the guidelines for lifestyle modification of rail transport workers, to develop and refine corporate programs for primary CVD prevention.

AbstractThe development of portable nodal array in the recent years greatly improved the seismic monitoring ability across multiple scales. The dense arrays also directly benefit microseismic monitoring by providing relatively low-cost surface recordings. However, the rapid growth of seismic data is accompanied by the increased demand for efficient seismic phase picking. On the other hand, machine learning-based phase picking techniques achieved high stability and accuracy, showing promising potential to replace human labors and traditional automatic pickers. In this study, we applied a state-of-the-art package on newly collected nodal array data around a hydraulic fracturing well in southwestern China. The array consists of up to 85 nodes with an average station spacing of less than a kilometer. Within the hydraulic fracturing stimulation periods, we detected ∼3000 seismic events with magnitude down to ∼−2. After waveform cross-correlation-based relocation, the 1979 relocated events clearly light up a 1 km long fault structure and several fractures. Furthermore, the frequency–magnitude distribution of the catalog exhibits weak bilinear features with relatively low b-value (0.88) and a moderate coefficient of variation (Cv ∼2). The nature and origin of the observed earthquake cluster are then discussed and defined based on the industrial information, high-resolution earthquake catalog, and basic statistics. Finally, we summarized our experience and provided recommendations for applying similar approaches to other local scale, surface microseismic monitoring scenarios.

A Comparison of the Digits-in-Noise Test and Extended High Frequency Response between Formally Trained Musicians and Non-Musicians
Authors: Dreyer Belinda , Pottas Lidia , Soer Maggi , Graham Marien Alet 
Published: March 2023

Background and Aim: Musical training has been hypothesised to result in enhanced Speech Perception in Noise (SPIN) abilities, but prolonged exposure to music also increases the risk for Music-Induced Hearing Loss (MIHL). The Signal-to-Noise Ratios (SNR) and the Extended High Frequency (EHF) thresholds between formally trained musicians and non- musicians were compared to determine the effect of musical training on musicians’ SPIN and hearing abilities.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included 40 musicians and 39 non-musicians 18–30 years, with mean age (SD) 22.43(2.71) years. EHF audiometry and the Digits-in-Noise (DIN) test were conducted via a smartphone.
Results: Differences found between the two groups regarding the DIN test and EHF thresholds were statistically insignificant. Musicians displayed early signs of MIHL as the musicians reported significantly more (p=0.004) instances of tinnitus than non-musicians. A statistically significant correlation was found only for the non-musician group between the 12.5 kHz threshold left and the SNR obtained in the diotic listening condition (rs=-0.465; p=0.003).
Conclusion: The results suggested that musicians did not display a significant advantage for SPIN and did not appear to have significantly poorer EHF hearing sensitivity. However, slight trends were noticeable in the musicians which gravitated more towards studies that found enhanced SPIN abilities and elevated EHF thresholds in the musician population. In the future, it may be useful to include additional speech tests (open-set) alongside the DIN test (closed-set). The present study suggests that EHF audiometry may be used for the early detection of MIHL.

Published: March 2023

Objective: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a leading cause of morbidity and death worldwide. DM will affect 570.9 million people worldwide by 2025. The usefulness of vitamin C in improving diabetes control has been a point of contention.
Materials and Methods: This clinical-trial double-blind study with control groups was conducted on 164 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The intervention group received 1000 mg of oral vitamin C daily, and a placebo was administered to the controls. To analyze the obtained data, one-way ANOVA was used in SPSS software (version 20). A P< 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: Fasting blood sugar (FBS), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1C), triglyceride (TG), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) were improved significantly in the intervention group (P< 0.05), while the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and cholesterol were unaffected (P> 0.05). HbA1C and LDL levels in the control group increased significantly (P< 0.05). Meanwhile, this group's HDL levels decreased considerably.
Conclusion: Our findings support the consumption of vitamin C to complement the primary treatment for DM. According to our results, vitamin C provides a clear benefit over a placebo in the treatment of diabetic patients' serum parameters.

Objective: Obesity is one of the most frequent concerns among teenagers, and it may lead to a variety of chronic disorders including heart disease and cancer. The present study aimed to assess the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) on body shay and self-criticism of obese adolescents referred to nutrition clinics in Tehran in 2019.
Materials and Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental method and a pre-test-post-test with a control group. Twenty-four obese volunteer adolescents were selected and assigned to an experimental group (n=12) and a control group (n=12). The experimental group received 90-minute weekly sessions for 2.5 months (10 sessions), while the control group did not receive any intervention. Before and after the training phase, all the participants completed the body image shame scale (BISS ) and the Forms of Self-Criticizing/Attacking and Self-Reassuring Scale (FSCRS). Data were analyzed through multivariate analysis of variance (ANCOVA) by using SPSS 22 software.
Results: The CBT group decreased significantly more in body shaming and self-criticism of obese adolescents compared with the control group (P< 0.001).
Conclusion: In general, the findings revealed a substantial difference in body shaming and self-criticism among obese teenagers between the experimental groups. In obese teens, CBT reduced body shaming and self-criticism. Furthermore, this research showed that CBT could help obese teenagers with body shaming and self-criticism.

Published: March 2023

This research aims to define the art of etiquette in public relations on one hand and to clarify the holy verses that talk about etiquette in the Holy Qur'an on the other . The researcher chose the idea or topic to extract ideas and topics related to the art of etiquette, which led to identifying three main categories for content analysis . First represented is the category of sayings, in which we have limited the holy verses that urge and guide the person to the right saying, such as the way of speaking or addressing, the level of sound , and others. The second was represented by the category of actions , which contains each verse that guides us to do a specific action that falls within the concept of etiquette . And the third was the category of behavior, which contains each verse that includes self-discipline and guidance for correct and good behavior. The content analysis method was used to analyze the holy verses and categorize them within the three categories. The interpretation of Ibn Kathir was used to extract the meanings of the verses , to be able to know the dimensions of each verse in them , and to include them in one of the categories. The research included three main sections, the first section was the methodological framework of the research, the second section included the art of etiquette and protocol, and the third section was devoted to the practical research aspect.

Published: March 2023

One of the most important legal sciences of interest to the jurist and the mufti is the science of the purposes of Sharia, which was included among the folds of the science of jurisprudence and did not separate from it until a later time, as the literature and research were devoted to it. And his perfection, Glory be to Him, in addition to recognizing the interests and their ranks that help in balancing and weighing the rulings and many other benefits obtained from this great science, is why I chose this topic for my research. I devoted the research in one of the books to one of the eminent scholars (Al-Kia Al-Harasi) in his book ``Provisions of the Qur'an.'' For the sake of this topic, I chose a part of the purposes of Sharia, which is the preservation of money from the side of nothingness, reviewed the views, vision, and analysis of this scientist in this part, and concluded my research with the most important results I reached.

Alterations in the proteostasis network and accumulation of misfolded protein aggregates — is one of the new pathogenesis concepts of chronic heart failure. We hypothesis in addition to well-known transthyretin (ATTR) and AL-amyloidosis some patients may represent amyloid lesion in myocardium came from undescribed amyloidogenic precursors due to misfolding of myocardial structural proteins.Here, we report on the case of patient with hypertrophic and restrictive phenotype of cardiomyopathy, biventricular heart failure, considered for heart transplant, and excluded known types of amyloidosis. Genetic testing revealed extended deletion in the gene of giant protein titin (TTN).We present with the use of bioinformatic analysis and molecular modeling how this mutation could lead to unfolding of corresponding protein and open its amyloidogenic motifs for intermolecular interactions, therefore, provide amyloidogenic ability. This data enables in more detail to decipher the pathogenesis of chronic heart failure on the background of cardiomyopathy, planning further studies for development of personalized risk profiling in different types of amyloidosis and elaborate more personalized treatment approach for such patients in the future.
Surface-Modified Graphite Nanoplatelets to Limit Deteriorative Impacts of Oil-Based Mud Residuals on Cement Bonding

Published: March 2023

Summary
Successful cementing relies on the effective removal of oil-based muds (OBMs), especially from rock and casing surfaces. However, most OBMs are heavily absorbed onto the mineral surfaces as well as casing, deteriorating the interfacial bonding of cement to these surfaces. We present a novel cement additive using graphite nanoplatelets (GNPs) to minimize the impact of mud residuals on the bonding strengths of cement. To benefit from the individual superior mechanical properties of GNPs, we develop surface modification techniques to modify their surface properties and make them compatible with the aqueous medium of cement. Surface treatment of GNPs is critical to provide a uniform dispersion of them within the cementitious matrix and also create a strong interfacial bonding between them and cement hydrates. A series of push-out tests are conducted to evaluate how the addition of surface-modified GNPs affects the bonding strength at the cement/rock interfaces corresponding to different scenarios of OBM residues. The effect of different kinds of rocks, including sandstone, limestone, and shale, is also incorporated in the push-out tests. The experimental results show that after spacer flushing for the cases of limestone and sandstone cores, treated GNPs not only limit the impact of mud residuals at the interfaces but also raise the bonding strength beyond that corresponding to water saturated cores by about 357% and 194%, respectively. For the case of shale after spacer flushing, the bonding strength recovers about 70% as compared to the water saturated cores, and this strength is about 429% higher than that measured for the water saturated case when cement is plain (without surface-modified GNPs).
