Authors: Mat Hamidah , Wan Ab Rahaman Wan Mohd Al Faizee , Shafie Norazzila 
Published: February 2023

Religion and religiosity are frequently explored topics in consumer behavior. It demonstrates how religion influences both individual and society views and behaviors. Religiosity has two dimensions: intrapersonal and interpersonal. It is one of the most influential variables in people's lives. This study aims to identify the level of intrapersonal and interpersonal religious commitment among respondents and the relationship between their religious commitment and choosing a shariah compliance hospital. This quantitative research involved 30 samples from OUM academic staff. The Religious Commitment Inventory (RCI-10) developed by Worthington et al. (2003) was used to assess this religiosity. A 5-point Likert scale was used to assess each construct's items. According to the findings of this study, the respondents have a high level of intrapersonal and interpersonal religious commitment, and there is a strong relationship between intrapersonal and interpersonal religious commitment. The study also found that religious commitment and choosing a Shariah Compliance Hospital have a significant moderate relationship.

Purpose: To assess the variations in power performance and perceptual training responses and compare the physical performance of national boxing athletes qualified or not qualified for the Tokyo Olympic Games over a 7-month training period. Methods: Twelve amateur boxers from the Brazilian national team were tested 6 times across 7 months. In the first assessment, boxers performed squat and countermovement jumps and bench press, prone bench pull, half squat, and jump squat power tests. In the following testing sessions, only countermovement jump and bench press power were assessed. In addition, the rating of perceived exertion and total quality recovery status were assessed in 106 training sessions across the study. Independent t test and repeated-measures analysis of variance were used for data analysis purposes. Results: No significant differences (P > .05) were observed between Olympic and non-Olympic groups for any test variables (effect size [95% CI] ranging from 0.01 [−1.13 to 1.13] to 0.69 [−0.53 to 1.79]). No significant changes (P > .05) were detected throughout the study for countermovement jump height and bench press power in either group (effect size [95% CI] ranging from 0.01 [−1.13 to 1.13] to 1.03 [−0.25 to 2.14]). Overall, both groups exhibited similar variations in both rating of perceived exertion and total quality recovery over the 7-month period. Conclusions: Within the same national team, power-related performance was similar between Olympic and non-Olympic boxers. The maintenance of power abilities and optimization of technical and tactical skills seem to be key issues to consider during the final stages of preparation for international boxing competitions.

ObjectiveTo determine the fitness of the INTERGROWTH-21st birth weight standards (INTERGROWTH21) for ethnic Chinese babies compared with a local reference (FOK2003).DesignPopulation-based analysis of territory-wide birth data.SettingAll public hospitals in Hong Kong.ParticipantsLive births between 24 and 42 complete weeks’ gestation during 2006–2017.Main outcome measuresBabies’ birth weight Z-scores were calculated using published methods. The two references were compared in three aspects: (1) the proportions of large-for-gestational-age (LGA) or small-for-gestational-age (SGA) infants, (2) the gestation-specific and sex-specific mean birth weight Z-scores and (3) the predictive power for SGA-related complications.Results488 896 infants were included. Using INTERGROWTH21, among neonates born <33 weeks’ gestation, the mean birth weight Z-scores per week were closer to zero (−0.2 to 0.05), while most of them were further from zero (0.06 to 0.34) after excluding infants with a high risk of abnormal intrauterine growth. Compared with FOK2003, INTERGROWTH21 classified smaller proportions of infants as SGA (8.3% vs 9.6%) and LGA (6.6% vs 7.9%), especially SGA among preterm infants (13.1% vs 17.0%). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for predicting SGA-related complications was greater with FOK2003 (0.674, 95% CI 0.670 to 0.677) than INTERGROWTH21 (0.658, 95% CI 0.655 to 0.661) (p<0.001).ConclusionsINTERGROWTH21 performed less well than FOK2003, a local reference for ethnic Chinese babies, especially in infants born <33 weeks’ gestation. Although the differences are clinically small, both these references performed poorly for extremely preterm infants, and thus a more robust chart based on a larger sample of appropriately selected infants is needed.

Published: February 2023

BackgroundTo identify the impact of enrolment onto a national pulse oximetry remote monitoring programme for COVID-19 (COVID-19 Oximetry @home; CO@h) on health service use and mortality in patients attending Emergency Departments (EDs).MethodsWe conducted a retrospective matched cohort study of patients enrolled onto the CO@h pathway from EDs in England. We included all patients with a positive COVID-19 test from 1 October 2020 to 3 May 2021 who attended ED from 3 days before to 10 days after the date of the test. All patients who were admitted or died on the same or following day to the first ED attendance within the time window were excluded. In the primary analysis, participants enrolled onto CO@h were matched using demographic and clinical criteria to participants who were not enrolled. Five outcome measures were examined within 28 days of first ED attendance: (1) Death from any cause; (2) Any subsequent ED attendance; (3) Any emergency hospital admission; (4) Critical care admission; and (5) Length of stay.Results15 621 participants were included in the primary analysis, of whom 639 were enrolled onto CO@h and 14 982 were controls. Odds of death were 52% lower in those enrolled (95% CI 7% to 75%) compared with those not enrolled onto CO@h. Odds of any ED attendance or admission were 37% (95% CI 16% to 63%) and 59% (95% CI 32% to 91%) higher, respectively, in those enrolled. Of those admitted, those enrolled had 53% (95% CI 7% to 76%) lower odds of critical care admission. There was no significant impact on length of stay.ConclusionsThese findings indicate that for patients assessed in ED, pulse oximetry remote monitoring may be a clinically effective and safe model for early detection of hypoxia and escalation. However, possible selection biases might limit the generalisability to other populations.
Evolutionary and Estimation of Distribution Algorithms for Unconstrained, Constrained, and Multiobjective Noisy Combinatorial Optimisation Problems
Authors: Aishwaryaprajna  , Rowe Jonathan E. 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
We present an empirical study of a range of evolutionary algorithms applied to various noisy combinatorial optimisation problems. There are three sets of experiments. The first looks at several toy problems, such as OneMax and other linear problems. We find that UMDA and the Paired-Crossover Evolutionary Algorithm (PCEA) are the only ones able to cope robustly with noise, within a reasonable fixed time budget. In the second stage, UMDA and PCEA are then tested on more complex noisy problems: SubsetSum, Knapsack, and SetCover. Both perform well under increasing levels of noise, with UMDA being the better of the two. In the third stage, we consider two noisy multiobjective problems (CountingOnesCountingZeros and a multiobjective formulation of SetCover). We compare several adaptations of UMDA for multiobjective problems with the Simple Evolutionary Multiobjective Optimiser (SEMO) and NSGA-II. We conclude that UMDA, and its variants, can be highly effective on a variety of noisy combinatorial optimisation, outperforming many other evolutionary algorithms.
Boreal Summer Extratropical Intraseasonal Waves over the Eurasian Continent and Real-Time Monitoring Metrics

Published: February 2023

Abstract
Boreal summer extratropical intraseasonal oscillation (EISO) is crucial in modulating regional subseasonal variation and particularly causing extreme meteorological events, but it has yet to be well clarified and operationally monitored. This study first objectively sorts out three dominant EISOs trapped along two extratropical westerly jet streams over Eurasia, and then proposes the corresponding real-time metrics. The three dominant EISOs are (i) an 8–25-day eastward-propagating wave along the subtropical westerly jet (EISO-SJE) initiating at the exit of the North America–North Atlantic jet and strengthening over the Black Sea–Caspian Sea–arid central Asia region; (ii) a 10–30-day eastward-traveling wave along the polar front jet (EISO-PJE), starting near Scandinavia and enhancing from the East European Plain to the West Siberian Plain and then decaying over the Okhotsk region; (iii) a 10–40-day westward-migrating wave along the polar front jet (EISO-PJW), which enhances near the Ural Mountains and weakens over Scandinavia. The real-time metrics then, following the three EISOs, have been constructed, and they are able to capture the spatiotemporal features of three EISOs in application. Moreover, the close linkages between these EISOs and the regional extremes/the blocking occurrence have been clearly demonstrated, confirming the importance of real-time EISO metrics. Together with tropical intraseasonal oscillation, this study provides the subseasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) community with a well-portrayed unified picture of extratropical intraseasonal waves and the real-time metrics for monitoring boreal summer intraseasonal signals over Eurasia and facilitate subseasonal predictions.

Significance Statement
Boreal summer extratropical intraseasonal oscillation (EISO) has drawn increasing attention owing to its importance in triggering extreme weather events and affecting regional subseasonal prediction. However, despite the urgent need of the subseasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) community, a comprehensive delineation of EISO diversity and real-time EISO monitoring remain the gap of knowledge. This study objectively sorts out and comprehensively clarifies three dominant EISOs trapped along two extratropical westerly jet streams over Eurasia. More importantly, the well-portrayed real-time EISO metrics are constructed based on three EISOs, which are applicable for operational real-time monitoring, subseasonal prediction, and model evaluation. This study stimulates an extratropical focus in the S2S community as a complementary component in addition to monitoring the MJO’s teleconnection to the mid- to high latitudes.

Background Preoperative sarcopenia is an essential factor that negatively affects postoperative results. The effect of preoperative sarcopenia on postoperative complications and prognosis in patients treated for Fournier’s gangrene (FG) is controversial. This retrospective cohort study analyzed the effect of FG to evaluate the effect of preoperative sarcopenia on postoperative complications and prognosis in patients who were operated on. Method The data of patients who were operated on with FG diagnosis in our clinic between 2008 and 2020 were reviewed retrospectively. Demographic data (age and gender), anthropometric measurements, preoperative laboratory values, abdominopelvic CT, location of FG, number of debridements, ostomy, microbiological culture result, wound closure method, length of hospital stay, and overall survival were recorded. In addition, the presence of sarcopenia was determined according to psoas muscular index (PMI) and Hounsfield unit average calculation (HUAC). Results Of the patients, 57 (30.8%) were female and 128 (69.2%) were male. According to the PMI, sarcopenia was detected in 67 (36.2%) patients and 70 (37.8%), according to the HUAC. At the end of one postoperative year, the mortality rate was higher in the sarcopenia group than in the non-sarcopenia group (P = .002, P = .01). According to the PMI, patients with sarcopenia have an 8.17 times greater risk of exitus than non-sarcopenic patients. According to the HUAC, patients with sarcopenia have a 4.21 times greater risk of exitus than non-sarcopenic patients. Conclusion Based on this large retrospective study, sarcopenia is a strong and independent predictor of postoperative mortality after Fournier’s treatment for gangrene.

Background The objective of this study was to identify predictors of mortality among patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with attempted suicides. Methods We analyzed data on emergency department (ED) visits for attempted suicides from the Nationwide Emergency Department Sample (NEDS) database from January 2010 to December 2017. The predictors of mortality were determined in multivariate analysis including age, sex, insurance, annual income, region of the country, mechanism of injury, mental health conditions (schizophrenia; depression; and anxiety, bipolar, and personality disorders), chronic illnesses (hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and dementia), and social risk factors such as alcohol addiction, smoking, and substance abuse. Results From 2010 to 2017, there were 979,383 ED visits for attempted suicides in the NEDS database. Among these patients, 10,301 (1.1%) died. Of these completed suicides, 73.9% were male with the median age of 43 years (IQR, 30) while the unsuccessful suicide attempt group had a median age of 30 years (IQR, 24) and were 42.7% male. The most common mechanisms of suicide attempt were poisoning (58.8%) and cut injury (25.6%). Gunshot was the most lethal mechanism accounting 40.3% of the completed suicides despite representing 1.3% of the attempts who came to ED. After controlling for common risk factors for attempted suicide, significant predictors of completed suicide include higher income status, uninsured status, male sex, and higher age. Discussion Among US patients presenting to the ED following attempted suicide, factors associated with suicide completion include increasing age, male sex, higher income, gunshot injuries, and uninsured status.
The Relevance of Attention Control, Not Working Memory, in Human Factors
Authors: Pak Richard , McLaughlin Anne Collins , Engle Randall 
Published: February 2023

Objective Discuss the human factors relevance of attention control (AC), a domain-general ability to regulate information processing functions in the service of goal-directed behavior. Background Working memory (WM) measures appear as predictors in various applied psychology studies. However, measures of WM reflect a mixture of memory storage and controlled attention making it difficult to interpret the meaning of significant WM-task relations for human factors. In light of new research, complex task performance may be better predicted or explained with new measures of attention control rather than WM. Method We briefly review the topic of individual differences in abilities in Human Factors. Next, we focus on WM, how it is measured, and what can be inferred from significant WM-task relations. Results The theoretical underpinnings of attention control as a high-level factor that affects complex thought and behavior make it useful in human factors, which often study performance in complex and dynamic task environments. To facilitate research on attention control in applied settings, we discuss a validated measure of attention control that predicts more variance in complex task performance than WM. In contrast to existing measures of WM or AC, our measures of attention control only require 3 minutes each (10 minutes total) and may be less culture-bound making them suitable for use in applied settings. Conclusion Explaining or predicting task performance relations with attention control rather than WM may have dramatically different implications for designing more specific, equitable task interfaces, or training. Application A highly efficient ability predictor can help researchers and practitioners better understand task requirements for human factors interventions or performance prediction.

Published: February 2023

Introduction: In children, idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is relatively uncommon. It is characterized by an increase in intracranial pressure, in the absence of evidence of underlying brain disease, structural abnormalities, hydrocephalus, or abnormal meningeal improvement. However, very rarely it can occur without papilledema, even though it is the most recognizable clinical sign. Due to this, a delay in diagnosis can lead to severe visual impairments. Case presentation: We describe a patient with a chronic headache but no papilledema. His neurological and systemic examinations were otherwise unremarkable. A lumbar puncture revealed a high opening pressure of 450 mmH2O and normal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) parameters. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed only tortuous optic nerves, no parenchymal lesions, and no evidence of venous sinus thrombosis. He required acetazolamide treatment. Our patient’s symptoms improved significantly in 2 months with medical treatment, weight loss, and exercise, with no development of papilledema. Conclusion: There is a wide range of clinical manifestations of IIH, making it difficult to decide when to begin treatment.
Digital transformation of journalism and media in Serbia: What has gone wrong?
Authors: Krstic Aleksandra 
Published: February 2023

The aim of this paper is to sketch a brief history of complex digital transformation of media and journalism in the context of Serbia, a European country which has undergone politically turbulent transition from authoritarian to democratic rule over the past 20 years. Despite the long process of the EU integration, the country has been recently downgraded to a partly free hybrid regime with rapid decline of press freedom, high political and media polarization and raising political and economic instrumentalization of media. Against this background, the paper problematizes how the main structural transformations of the media environment, such as the transition from state to public broadcasting, the introduction of new media laws and the lengthy process of media privatization intersected and influenced different phases and outcomes of the digital transformation of journalism and news media in the country. Unlike the digital journalism development in established democracies of the West, the real systemic change and adaptation of Serbia’s media market to easy-to-use technologies, newsrooms convergence, profitable content and participatory journalism has been largely limited and overpowered by the interplay between the state and the media over the past two decades.

Published: February 2023

Background: Pectoralis major rupture is often is weightlifters, commonly during benchpressing, eccentric phase of contraction and external rotation under maximum contraction. Preoperative imaging is use to differentiate between complete, partial, or intermuscular tear. In athelete patient, operative treatment has shown better result in return of strength and overall satisfaction over nonoperative treatment. Objectives: We described a surgical technique in 6 patients with acute pectoralis major rupture, with double button sliding technique. Methods: A deltopectoral approach is performed, and identify pectoralis major tendon and each tendon is secured with No.2 non absorbable braided suture using a modified krackow configuration. A 3.2 mm drill is used to make a unicortical hole at footprint. Two button were inserted and tensioned follow by knot-tying. Results: After six months evaluation, all patients underwent surgery with double button sliding tension technique returned to their pre-injury level. Conclusion: Double button tension sliding technique in pectoralis major rupture had excellent result, patients have returned to sport without complication.

Published: February 2023

Introduction: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture was the most common injury that occurred in the knee. Reconstruction was the most common operative management used. After primary ACL reconstruction, a rerupture can be devastating. Several extraarticular procedures have been proposed to resolve rotatory instability, such as tenodesis. We determined to conduct a meta-analysis comparing ACL reconstruction (ACLR) with lateral extraarticular tenodesis (LET) using the modified Lemaire technique and evaluated the risk of failure or re-rupture rate and the outcome. Method: We conducted a meta-analysis based on The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). The search was conducted in June 2022 on several databases: PubMed, EBSCOHost, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and WileyOnline using Boolean operators focusing on PICO (Population, Intervention, Control, Outcome). Included studies will be extracted for characteristics such as author and study year, location, design, sample characteristics, failure (graft or clinical failure), and outcome (KOOS score, functional outcome, clinical outcome). Studies will be qualitatively and quantitatively evaluated using Review Manager 5.4 or equivalent. Result: Search was conducted and resulted in the five final studies with 797 patients. ACLR + LET has a lower risk of failure or re-rupture ratio than ACLR alone (RR= 0.44; 95% CI 0.26 – 0.75; I2=9%; p= 0.003). There were differences in the KOOS pain score, ADL score, sports score and QOL score with mean difference of 0.20 (95% CI 0.10, 0.30; I2=0%; p <0.0001), -0.20 (95% CI -0.26, -0.13; I2=0%; p <0.00001), 0.20 (95% CI 0.02, 0.38; I2=0%; p= 0.03), and 0.50 (95% CI 0.29, 0.71; I2=0%; p< 0.00001) respectively. Furthermore, there was a significant mean difference in the International Knee Documentation Committee score of 0.70 (95% CI 0.57, 0.83; I2=0%; p <0.000001). However, there were no significant differences in Lysholm score, and Tegner score between groups. Conclusion: LET was considered adequate in adjunction to ACLR, to minimize rerupture rate, and to improve stability and laxity of the knee to improve clinical outcome
