Yellow pumpkin is rich in vitamin A, carotene, and other essential nutrients, and has good durability. Apart from being a food and vegetable, pumpkin can be processed into semi-finished flour which becomes a processed product. This study aims to examine the effect of sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) concentration on the physical and chemical properties of modified pumpkin starch (Modified cucurbita moschata starch). This study used an experimental method in the laboratory with a completely randomized design (CRD). The concentrations of STPP used in the treatments were 0.1%, 0.3%, 0.5%, 0.7%, and 0.9% of the weight of pumpkin starch. Each treatment was repeated 3 times, totaling 15 experimental units. Parameters observed included solubility, swelling power, moisture content, and starch content. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance (Anova) with a real level of 5% and Least Significance Different (LSD) further test. The results showed that STPP concentration had no significant effect on solubility and swelling power, but had a significant effect on the moisture content and starch content. The higher the STPP concentration, the higher the water content and the lower the starch content. The 0.9% STPP concentration had the highest moisture content (15.54%) and the 0.3% STPP concentration had the highest starch content (92.63%). In order to be more complex, further research is carried out to test the parameters of phosphate content, ash content, amylose content, amylopectin content, color, PH, viscosity, anthocyanins, crude fiber, gelatinization, syneresis, antioxidants, polyphenols, reducing sugar, water holding capacity and oil holding capacity.

Published: August 2023

Recently, there has been a significant increase in the use of social media, especially among the new generation of users. In parallel with this increase, social media platforms have highlighted the concept of social commerce - an extension of e-commerce - and put it on the current agenda. In social commerce, social media platforms are used to share, create, and request product information, perceptions, and views, with customers also making purchases.

The social commerce intention of the new generation via social media platforms is the focus of this study. This study investigates the social commerce intention of students at a public university in Yalova, Turkey, to purchase products via Instagram and the factors that affect this intention. 296 students participated in the study. Findings suggest that the price and reputation of social commerce vendors positively affect user trust. Also, habit, perceived ease of use, and hedonic motivation also positively affect social commerce intention. Trust in the social vendor positively affects social commerce intention. Other hypotheses are rejected. This study contributes to the literature by analysing the role of different factors in social commerce intention.

Objective: This research was carried out to determine the attitudes of individuals who applied to primary care during the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and the factors affecting the COVID-19 vaccine.
Methods: The descriptive study was conducted with individuals (n=190) who applied to five family health centers in Erzincan city center between March-June 2021. The data were collected using the "Personal Information Form" and the "Scale of Attitudes towards the COVID-19 Vaccine" by paying attention to the pandemic rules by face-to-face interview method.
Results: It was determined that 75.3% of the individuals were women, 41.1% were primary school graduates, 59.5% lived in a nuclear family and 74.2% had no chronic disease. Individuals Attitudes Towards COVID-19 Vaccine Scale mean score was 3.26±0.78 out of 5, positive attitude sub-dimension mean score was 3.32±0.99, and negative attitude sub-dimension mean score was 3.21±0.71. There is a statistically significant difference between the mean scores of the Attitudes Towards COVID-19 Vaccine Scale and the status of individuals thinking that COVID-19 vaccine is necessary for public health, worrying about getting COVID-19 infection, having COVID-19 vaccine, and following information about COVID-19 vaccine.
Conclusions: It was determined that the attitudes of these individuals towards the COVID-19 vaccine were at a positive level. The reasons for participants' concerns about the COVID-19 vaccine are fear of side effects of the vaccine and the production of the vaccine in a very short period of time.

Published: August 2023

Background/introductionCurrently, despite continued issues with durability (
1), biological prosthetic valves are increasingly chosen over mechanical valves for surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in adult patients of all ages, at least in Western countries. For younger patients, this choice means assuming the risks associated with a redo SAVR or valve-in-valve procedure.PurposeTo assess the use of mechanical vs. biological valve prostheses for SAVR relative to patient's age and implant time in a large population extracted from the French National Database EPICARD.MethodsPatients in EPICARD undergoing SAVR from 2007 to 2022 were included from 22 participating public or private centers chosen to represent a balanced representation of centre sizes and geographical discrepancies. Patients with associated pathology of the aorta (aneurysm or dissection) and requiring a vascular aortic prosthesis were excluded. Comparisons were made amongst centers, valve choice, implant date range, and patient age.ResultsWe considered 101,070 valvular heart disease patients and included 72,375 SAVR (mean age 71.4 ± 12.2 years). We observed a mechanical vs. biological prosthesis ratio (MBPR) of 0.14 for the overall population. Before 50 years old (y-o), MBPR was &gt;1.3 (p &lt; 0.001) while patients above 60 years-old received principally biological SAVR (p &lt; 0.0001). Concerning patients between 50 and 60 years-old patients, MPVR was 1.04 (p = 0.03). Patients 50–60 years-old from the first and second study duration quartile (before August 2015) received preferentially mechanical SAVR (p &lt; 0.001). We observed a shift towards more biological SAVR (p &lt; 0.001) for patients from the third and fourth quartile to reach a MBPR at 0.43 during the last years of the series. Incidentally, simultaneous mitral valve replacement were more common in case of mechanical SAVR (p &lt; 0.0001), while associated CABGs were more frequent in case of biological SAVR (p &lt; 0.0001).ConclusionIn a large contemporary French patient population, real world practice showed a recent shift towards a lower age-threshold for biological SAVR as compared to what would suggest contemporary guidelines.

Published: August 2023

IntroductionCreativity is an important 21st-century skill that also plays an important role in second language use and development. This study examined the effects of creative pedagogy centered on student questioning activities for second language learners’ creativity, language proficiency, and questioning ability.MethodsIn the Japanese second language course, a creative activity intervention involving questioning activities was conducted for 81 university students. The students were taught how to ask higher-order questions, and they performed questioning activities and discussions about their questions after reading articles for eight lectures in 4 weeks.ResultsAfter the intervention, the quantity and quality of questions asked by participants increased and improved in the Questioning ability test. In the Creative thinking test, the three subscales of creative thinking (fluency, flexibility, and originality) improved after the intervention. In the Language proficiency test, there were also significant changes in vocabulary, grammar, and total scores after the intervention compared to before the intervention.DiscussionThe creative pedagogy significantly improved learners’ creativity, second language performance, and questioning ability, with a particularly positive impact on questioning ability, representing innovative thinking skills. The findings of this study not only contribute to future research on the development of creativity in second language instruction and deepen the exploration of the development of questioning ability for innovative thinking skills.

Published: August 2023

BackgroundThe guideline recommended chest compression depth, rate, and recoil are essential factors for the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). A pediatric resuscitation collaboration recently demonstrated that healthcare providers fail to meet the American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines, with the greatest difficulty being in achieving chest compression depth targets in infants. We hypothesized that the use of the heel of one hand [open palm technique (OPT)] will increase chest compression depth in infants compared to standard CPR techniques [two-finger technique (TFT), two thumb-encircling hand technique (TTT)].MethodsA prospective, randomized, single-center study was completed using an infant manikin. Thirty pediatric critical care providers performed 2 min of CPR for each technique followed by 5 min of rest. Each participant completed a survey at the end that assessed the difficulty level in order to assess the feasibility of this new technique.ResultsThe mean chest compression depth for the OPT was significantly deeper compared to TFT (2.61± 0.63 cm vs. 2.25 ± 0.54 cm, p = 0.0004) but not significantly deeper compared to TTT (2.43 ± 0.46 cm, p = 0.0820). OPT was graded as the easiest technique, followed by TTT (2.20 ± 0.76 vs. 3.17 ± 0.95, p &lt; 0.0001) and then TFT (3.38 ± 0.83, p &lt; 0.0001).ConclusionThe use of OPT for infant CPR resulted in improved chest compression depth. OPT was considered the easiest technique compared to standard infant CPR techniques, thus making it feasible to perform. Importantly, all providers failed to meet the AHA infant chest compression depth goal of 4 cm, regardless of the technique. Future research is needed to optimize CPR technique and performance to achieve targeted chest compression depth in infants.

Current guidelines recommend temozolomide as the first-line chemotherapy for aggressive pituitary neuroendocrine tumours. However, no clinical trials have been conducted to date and clinical experience is quite limited. We retrospectively analyzed 28 patients (9 women and 19 men), aged 46.6 + 16.9, with aggressive pituitary tumours (4 pituitary carcinomas and 24 aggressive adenomas) treated with temozolomide in 10 Spanish pituitary reference centres. Four patients had Cushing’s disease, 9 prolactinomas and 15 clinically non-functioning pituitary tumours (seven silent corticotroph, three silent somatotroph, one silent lactotroph, one silent gondotroph and three null-cell tumours). Median size at diagnosis was 10.5 cm3 (IQR 4.7-22.5), with cavernous sinus invasion in 88% and no metastases. Pre-temozolomide treatment, these data were 5.2 cm3 (IQR 1.9-12.3), 89.3% and 14.3% (2 intracranial and 2 spinal metastases). All patients had undergone surgery (1-5 surgeries), 25 (89.3%) had received radiotherapy (7 of them reirradiated) and 13(46.4%) had received cabergoline. One patient interrupted temozolomide prematurely. The remaining 27 patients received a median of 13 cycles (range 3-66) of 5 days every 28 days, with a mean initial dose of 265 ± 73 mg when administered alone and of 133 ± 15 mg when co-administered with radiotherapy. Eight patients (29.6%) had a significant reduction (&gt;30%) in tumour volume and 14 (51.9%) attained tumour stabilization. After a median follow-up of 29 months (IQR 10-55), 8 out of these 22 showed disease progression. A longer progression-free survival was found in the five patients who received concomitant radiotherapy. Seven patients (25%) died (all of them because of tumour progression or complications of treatments) at 77 months (IQR 42-136) after diagnosis and 29 months (IQR 16-55) after the first dose of temozolomide. Adverse effects occurred in 18 patients (14 mild and 4 moderate or severe). In conclusion, temozolomide is an effective medical treatment for aggressive pitNET and pituitary carcinomas but is sometimes followed by tumour progression. Co-administration with radiotherapy may increase progression-free survival.

IntroductionThe prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is increasing worldwide. Strategies to decrease this risk should be strongly encouraged. Lactation has been associated, for the mother, with reduction in future T2DM risk in several studies. The mechanisms behind this phenomenon, however, are poorly understood. The aims of this study were, first, to compare blood glucose levels and markers of insulin resistance (MIR) in early postpartum women with overweight/obesity according to their breastfeeding status and, second, to evaluate whether prolactin (PRL) levels could mediate improvements in these parameters.MethodsThe prospective study followed 95 women older than 18 years from early pregnancy for up to 60 to 180 days postpartum. All participants had a BMI &gt; 25 kg/m2 and a singleton pregnancy. At each visit, questionnaires and clinical and biochemical evaluations were performed. Participants were divided into two groups according to the breastfeeding status as “yes” for exclusive or predominant breastfeeding, and “no” for not breastfeeding.ResultsBreastfeeding women (n = 44) had significantly higher PRL levels [47.8 (29.6–88.2) vs. 20.0 (12.0–33.8), p&lt; 0.001]. They also had significantly lower fasting blood glucose levels [89.0 (8.0) vs. 93.9 (12.6) mg/dl, p = 0.04], triglycerides (TG) [92.2 (37.9) vs. 122.4 (64.4) mg/dl, p = 0.01], TG/HDL ratio [1.8 (0.8) vs. 2.4 (1.6) mg/dl, p = 0.02], TyG index [8.24 (0.4) vs. 8.52 (0.53), p = 0.005], fasting serum insulin [8.9 (6.3–11.6) vs. 11.4 (7.7–17.0), p = 0.048], and HOMA-IR [2.0 (1.3–2.7) vs. 2.6 (1.6–3.9), p = 0.025] in the postpartum period compared to the non-breastfeeding group. Groups were homogeneous in relation to prevalence of GDM, pre-gestational BMI, as well as daily caloric intake, physical activity, and weight loss at postpartum. Linear regression analysis with adjustments for confounders showed a statistically significant association of breastfeeding with fasting blood glucose [−6.37 (−10.91 to −1.83), p = 0.006], HOMA-IR [−0.27 (−0.51 to −0.04), p = 0.024], TyG index [−0.04 (−0.06 to −0.02), p = 0.001], and TG/HDL ratio [−0.25 (−0.48 to −0.01), p = 0.038]. Mediation analysis showed that PRL did not mediate these effects. Sensitivity analyses considering different cutoffs for PRL levels also did not show modification effect in the mediation analyses.ConclusionBreastfeeding was associated with improvement in glucose metabolism and MIR 60 to 180 days after birth in overweight and obese women, even when adjusted for confounders. PRL levels were not found to mediate the association between breastfeeding and improvement in MIR.
