Published: March 2023

SamenvattingInleidingDe helft van de volwassen Nederlanders heeft matig tot ernstig overgewicht. De gecombineerde leefstijlinterventie begeleidt mensen met overgewicht naar een gezonde leefstijl. Naast fysieke contactmomenten kunnen digitale coachingsmiddelen ingezet worden om cliënten op afstand te begeleiden. In de praktijk blijkt dat digitale toepassingen nog niet ten volle worden benut. Om het gebruik te stimuleren is inzicht nodig in de ervaringen en ondersteuningsbehoeften van leefstijlcoaches ten aanzien van de inzet van digitale technologie.MethodeMet één vragenlijst en twee focusgroepgesprekken zijn data verzameld over het gebruik, de wensen en ondersteuningsbehoeften rond het inzetten van digitale coachingsmiddelen bij leefstijlcoaches. De vragenlijsten zijn descriptief geanalyseerd en de focusgroepgesprekken zijn thematisch geanalyseerd.ResultatenUit de vragenlijstresultaten (N = 79) en de focusgroepgesprekken (N = 10) bleek dat leefstijlcoaches vooral ervaring hebben opgedaan met videobellen, applicaties en online informatie. Ze gaven aan dat digitale coaching de zelfredzaamheid van hun cliënten ondersteunt. Online groepsbegeleiding wordt als minder effectief ervaren dan fysieke groepssessies, omdat er weinig interactie tussen cliënten plaatsvindt. Ook ervaren leefstijlcoaches praktische barrières bij het gebruik. Ze hebben behoefte aan uitwisseling van ervaringen met collega’s, scholing en instructies over de manier waarop digitale coachingsmiddelen ingezet kunnen worden.ConclusieLeefstijlcoaches achten digitale coachingsmiddelen van toegevoegde waarde bij de individuele begeleiding van hun cliënten. Het wegnemen van praktische barrières en het faciliteren van uitwisseling en scholing kunnen een ruimere inzet van digitale coachingsmiddelen stimuleren.
Meta-reinforcement learning for edge caching in vehicular networks
Authors: Sakr Hebatullah , Elsabrouty Maha 
Published: March 2023

AbstractContent caching to local repositories closer to the user can significantly improve the utilization of the backbone network, reduce latency, and improve reliability. Nevertheless, proactive caching in fast varying environments, especially in vehicular networks has many challenges including the change of the popularity of data with time as well as the changing popularity due to the change of requesting vehicles associated with the roadside units (RSUs). Learning techniques, especially reinforcement learning (RL), play a significant role in caching. Nevertheless, faster adaptation to reach the optimal policy with the dynamic nature of vehicular caching is still highly needed. In this paper, we propose a meta-reinforcement learning (Meta-RL) algorithm for proactive caching and caching replacement techniques based on model agnostic meta-learning (MAML) that can learn and adapt to new tasks faster and can improve the overall hit rate. Simulation results show that the proposed meta-RL algorithm improves the efficiency of the content caching system and provides faster convergence. The proposed meta-RL exhibits a particularly superior performance in the case of changing popularity of cached data.

Published: March 2023

AbstractWall cooling panels are typically a kind of electric arc furnace equipment that has precisely influence on different aspects of the steelmaking process. This investigation employs a CFD method to evaluate the thermal performance of water cooling panels in real operating conditions to validate the numerical method followed by replacing cooling water with Al2O3/Water nanofluid coolant. The results are revealed that the high rate of receiving heat flux and generated vortexes with low-velocity cores lead to hot spots inducing on bends and elbows. In the operating flow rate, the maximum temperature of the hot-side wall decrease by 14.4% through increasing the nanoparticle concentration up to 5%, where the difference between maximum temperature and average temperature on the hot-side decrease to 12 degrees. According to the results, use of nanofluid coolant is a promising method to fade the hot spots out on the hot-side and gifting a lower and smoother temperature distribution on the panel walls of thereby prolonging the usage period of panels.

Published: March 2023

Abstract
In October 2021, a majority of the UK gambling industry implemented a new UK safer gambling message, ‘take time to think’, which features on gambling advertising and websites. An effective safer gambling message could plausibly affect several relevant gambling behaviours, with previous research suggesting that message effectiveness is maximised via messages that are displayed prominently immediately prior to gambling. We experimentally tested this message's effect on four contemporaneous gambling behaviours (the proportion of available funds bet, clicks for help service information, the mean speed of play, and the total number of roulette spins made) in an incentivised online roulette game in a sample of UK-based online gamblers. Participants (n = 2,305) were randomly allocated to either (a) ‘no-message’ control, (b) ‘message’ shown throughout the condition or (c) a ‘message+’ condition, where the message was shown throughout and also via a popup immediately prior to the roulette game. Overall, the results showed no credible effects across the four outcome measures when comparing either of the message conditions to the no-message control. Even the prominent display of the ‘take time to think’ message did not lead to credible beneficial effects on a range of contemporaneous gambling behaviours.
Cronología, tecnología y subsistencia de los cazadores-recolectores de mediados del Holoceno medio (ca. 8000-5500 cal aP) en la cuenca superior del Río Loa (Puna de Atacama, Andes centro sur)

Published: March 2023

ResumenSe presentan los resultados de las investigaciones llevadas a cabo en dos sitios del Holoceno medio ubicados en la cuenca superior del Río Loa (norte de Chile), conocidos como Alero Huiculunche y Corte de La Damiana. Los trabajos desarrollados incluyeron excavaciones estratigráficas, obtención y análisis de dataciones radiocarbónicas y análisis del material lítico y arqueofaunístico recuperado. Las dataciones obtenidas hicieron posible desarrollar un modelo cronológico bayesiano, el que permite definir los límites temporales más probables de ocupación para cada asentamiento y para sus unidades estratigráficas. La ocupación de Alero Huiculunche se muestra más temprana que en Corte de La Damiana, si bien el modelo revela alta probabilidad de una coexistencia breve entre las poblaciones de ambos sitios. Los análisis líticos y arqueofaunísticos sugieren que se trata en ambos casos de campamentos base de ocupación reiterada pero posiblemente intermitente, con ocupaciones menos intensas y/o recurrentes en Alero Huiculunche en relación con Corte de La Damiana. El conjunto de evidencias apunta a la existencia de un proceso de intensificación económica creciente entre aproximadamente 8000 y 5500 cal aP, el cual decanta en un sistema de asentamiento de mayor estabilidad y densidad ocupacional, en especial a partir de 6500 cal aP.
Juvenile hormone identification in the cabbage bug Eurydema rugosa

Published: March 2023

AbstractJuvenile hormone (JH) plays a pivotal role in almost every aspect of insect development and reproduction. The chemical structure of the JH in heteropteran species has long remained elusive until methyl (2R,3S,10R)-2,3;10,11-bisepoxyfarnesoate, commonly named as juvenile hormone III skipped bisepoxide (JHSB3), was isolated from Plautia stali (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Pentatomidae). Recently, several groups reported the presence of JHSB3 in other heteropteran species. However, most of the studies paid no attention to the determination of the relative and absolute structure of the JH. In this study, we investigated the JH of the cabbage bug Eurydema rugosa (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Pentatomidae), known as a pest for wild and cultivated crucifers. JHSB3 was detected in the hexane extract from the corpus allatum (CA) product using a chiral ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometer (UPLC-MS/MS) which can inform the absolute stereochemistry of the JH. Its stereoisomers were not detected. Topical application of the synthetic JHSB3 to the last instar nymphs inhibited their metamorphosis and induced nymphal-type colouration of the dorsal abdomen in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, the topical application of JHSB3 effectively terminated summer and winter diapauses in females. These results indicate that the JH of E. rugosa is JHSB3. Although individuals in summer and winter diapauses are physiologically distinct in E. rugosa, the results suggest that the physiological differences between these diapauses are based, not on the responsiveness to JH, but on the processes governing activation of the CA or on its upstream cascades.

AbstractThe research described in this Research Communication addresses the hypothesis that intramammary infections withStreptococcus uberis(S. uberis) are associated with biofilm formation, which limits antibiotic efficacy. This retrospective study investigated biofilm expression and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) patterns of 172S. uberisinfections. Isolates were recovered from milk samples of subclinical, clinical, and intramammary infection cases on 30 commercial dairy herds. We determined the presence and intensity of biofilm expression ofS. uberisisolates in vitro in three somatic cell count categories to recognise their AMR patterns. An automated minimum inhibitory concentration system with a commercially available panel of 23 antimicrobial agents evaluated AMR, while biofilm determination was conducted using a microplate method. The study established that all theS. uberisisolates assessed expressed biofilm with the following varying degrees of intensities: 30 (17.8%) strong, 59 (34.9%) medium and 80 (47.3%) weak biofilms. The newly registered UBAC mastitis vaccine containing biofilm adhesion components may, therefore, be a viable option for proactive mastitis management under field conditions. No differences were identified between biofilm intensity and the three somatic cell count groups. MostS. uberisisolates indicated a high-level sensitivity to the antimicrobial agents tested. Resistances were present in 8.7, 8.1 and 7.0% cases to rifampin, minocycline and tetracycline, respectively. Multidrug resistance was observed in 6.4%, emphasising AMR to antibiotics used in human medicine only. The low overall resistance suggests that farmers adhere to the prudent use of antimicrobials in the dairy industry.
La promesse face à la peur: de nouveau Mc 16. 8b
Authors: Rastoin Marc 
Published: March 2023

AbstractThe ending of Mark, ‘And they (the women) said nothing to anyone for they were afraid’ (16.8) is one of the most famous cruxes in the New Testament. Could the author really have intended to complete the gospel in such a way? Building on a suggestion made by Joel Marcus and Benoit Standaert, this article defends the hypothesis that Mark is deliberately making a reference to Genesis 18.15 LXX. The same rare expression ἐφοβήθη γάρ which has the verb ‘to be afraid’ followed by the preposition γάρ, appears in a comparable context. In both cases, one or more women are presented by God or his messengers with what could appear to be an unlikely promise and a radical impossibility: the birth of a child in old age or the resurrection of a dead person. While presenting a critique of S. Hultgren's recent proposal that Dn 10 is the background of Mark, the approach here is to add an argument based on a scriptural allusion, which Mark was perfectly capable of making, in support of the now predominant view, but still with many critics, that the writer fully intended to end his gospel with 16.8b.
‘I Will Complete a New Covenant’ (Heb 8.8): Christology and New Creation in Hebrews
Authors: Shin Euntaek D. 
Published: March 2023

AbstractThe use of συντɛλέω to speak of God's ‘completion’ of the new covenant (Heb 8.8) has generated various explanations. Yet none of them factor in an important clue in Hebrews, namely, the rest discourse. By establishing literary and theological connections between Heb 3.7–4.13 and 8.8–12, this study argues that the promise of the completion of the new covenant evokes the completion of creation and its ensuing sabbath rest. Such an evocation brings to surface a logic of Christology and new creation embedded in Hebrews.
The Enigma of the Antitheses
Authors: Marcus Joel 
Published: March 2023

AbstractWhile it is easy to interpret the first and second of the Matthean Antitheses (5.21–30) as intensifications of the Mosaic law, it is difficult to interpret the remaining Antitheses (5.31–48) in this manner. In the history of interpretation, two main strategies have been adopted for dealing with these later Antitheses, the ‘rejected interpretation’ hypothesis and the revocation hypothesis. The ‘rejected interpretation’ hypothesis, however, is only plausible for the last Antithesis (5.43–8), which appends ‘and hate your enemy’ to the Levitical exhortation to love one's neighbour; in all other instances, the ‘thesis’ statement is either a biblical citation or a close paraphrase of one or more biblical passages. Although the revocation hypothesis has often been deployed in an anti-Jewish way, there is nothing intrinsically anti-Jewish about it; indeed, both biblical authors, such as the Deuteronomist and Ezekiel, on the one hand, and some rabbis, on the other, explicitly revise prior biblical laws while at the same time claiming to be changing nothing. Matthew does something similar when he introduces the revisionist Antitheses with a programmatic statement about the unchangeableness of the Law (5.17–20). The Matthean Jesus, then, is not ‘seconding Sinai’ but correcting it.
Taxonomic re-evaluation of African anuran trypanosomes with the redescription and molecular diagnosis of Trypanosoma (Trypanosoma) nelspruitense Laveran, 1904 and Trypanosoma (Haematomonas) grandicolor Pienaar, 1962

Published: March 2023

AbstractThe aquatic and terrestrial clades of species of Trypanosoma could provide insight into the evolutionary history of the genus, as well as complementary information for biomedical studies of medically and economically important species of Trypanosoma. The ecological interactions and phylogeny of aquatic trypanosomes are currently not well-understood, mostly due to their complex life cycles and a deficiency of data. The species of Trypanosoma from African anuran hosts are of the least understood taxa in the genus. Trypanosomes were collected from South African frogs and subjected to morphological and phylogenetic analyses. This study redescribes Trypanosoma (Trypanosoma) nelspruitense Laveran, 1904 and Trypanosoma (Haematomonas) grandicolor Pienaar, 1962, with morphological and molecular data. The present study aims to create a platform for further future research on African anuran trypanosomes.
Natural life cycle of Versteria cuja (Taeniidae) in Argentina and histopathology of metacestodiasis in intermediate hosts

AbstractUsing morphological and molecular studies, the life cycle of Versteria cuja (Cestoda: Taeniidae) was elucidated, involving subterranean rodents (Ctenomyidae) as intermediate hosts, and the lesser grison, Galictis cuja (Mustelidae), as definitive host. Metacestodes (cysticerci and polycephalic larvae) were found mainly in the liver but also in spleen, pancreas, lungs and small intestine of 2 species of tuco-tucos (Ctenomys spp.) from Chubut, Argentina. Identity of the metacestodes with the adult was based primarily on the number, size and shape of rostellar hooks: 40–48 hooks in 2 rows, particularly small (10–16 μm total length by 6–10 μm wide), composed of handle, blade and guard with characteristic shapes. Genetic analysis (cox1 gen mtDNA) performed on metacestodes from both intermediate hosts corroborated their conspecificity with adults of V. cuja from lesser grisons in the same locality. Histopathological study showed the hepatic parenchyma altered by the presence of cysts containing larvae, each surrounded by a capsule of connective tissue with inflammatory infiltrate, atrophied hepatocytes and an increase of bile ducts. In the lung, in addition to the cysts, dilated alveoli, oedema and hyperaemic blood vessels were observed. This is the first report of a natural life cycle of a Versteria species from South America. It shows strong similarities with that described for a North American zoonotic lineage of Versteria, confirming a close relationship between V. cuja and this North American lineage, as previously demonstrated by molecular studies. Consequently, the zoonotic potential of V. cuja should not be disregarded.
Comparative transcriptomics from intestinal cells of permissive and non-permissive hosts during Ancylostoma ceylanicum infection reveals unique signatures of protection and host specificity

AbstractSoil-transmitted nematodes (STNs) place a tremendous burden on health and economics worldwide with an estimate of at least 1.5 billion people, or 24% of the population, being infected with at least 1 STN globally. Children and pregnant women carry the heavier pathological burden, and disease caused by the blood-feeding worm in the intestine can result in anaemia and delays in physical and intellectual development. These parasites are capable of infecting and reproducing in various host species, but what determines host specificity remains unanswered. Identifying the molecular determinants of host specificity would provide a crucial breakthrough towards understanding the biology of parasitism and could provide attractive targets for intervention. To investigate specificity mechanisms, members of the hookworm genus Ancylostoma provide a powerful system as they range from strict specialists to generalists. Using transcriptomics, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in permissive (hamster) and non-permissive (mouse) hosts at different early time points during infection with A. ceylanicum were examined. Analysis of the data has identified unique immune responses in mice, as well as potential permissive signals in hamsters. Specifically, immune pathways associated with resistance to infection are upregulated in the non-permissive host, providing a possible protection mechanism that is absent in the permissive host. Furthermore, unique signatures of host specificity that may inform the parasite that it has invaded a permissive host were identified. These data provide novel insight into the tissue-specific gene expression differences between permissive and non-permissive hosts in response to hookworm infection.

AbstractRural areas tend to be inhabited by more older people and thus have a higher prevalence of dementia. Combined with lower population densities and more sparse geography, rural areas pose numerous barriers and costs relating to support and resource provision. This may leave people with dementia in rural places at a significant disadvantage, leading to a heavy reliance on informal support networks. The present study explores the personal experiences of people living with dementia and carers living in rural areas, seeking to discover both benefits and challenges, as well as recommendations within the literature for improving the lives of those affected by dementia in rural areas. A scoping review following the framework of Arksey and O'Malley identified 60 studies that describe or discuss the personal experience of dementia (either by the person with dementia or carer), in relation to living in rural or remote geographical areas. Four overarching themes were derived, namely the possible benefits of living in a rural community (supportive rural communities), sources of strength described by people affected by dementia in rural areas (managing and coping), detrimental aspects of living in a rural community (rural community challenges) and difficulties with dementia care services. Three further themes yielded recommendations for improving the experience of dementia in rural areas. This review highlights some potential opportunities related to living in rural areas for people living with dementia. These often come with parallel challenges, reflecting a delicate balance between being well-supported and being in crisis for those living in rural areas. Given the limited access to formal services, supporting people with dementia in rural areas requires input and innovation from the people, organisations and services local to those communities.
