Physical Activity Engagement Across Human Life Cycles: A Scoping Review
Authors: Castro Rafael Luis G. , Manalansan Lenard M. , Sibug Vanessa B. 
Published: September 2023

Physical activities bring health benefits essential to an individual's overall well-being. Engagement in physical activities may vary across different ages, gender, and the capability of an individual to participate. Despite the many potential benefits, the uptake of the level of physical activities among individuals is quite low and risk may occur that depends on the environment they are in. To elucidate these benefits and factors of physical activity engagement of individuals, this study aimed to classify all the scope of the evidence that pertains to participation in physical activities. The literature research, conducted in 2022, employed the databases Education Resources Information Center (ERIC), PubMed, ScienceDirect, and the search engine Google Scholar. Twenty-nine studies mentioning the engagement of individuals in physical activities were tagged from 4 databases. Findings equivalent to the article and participants were summarized quantifiably, while information implying the engagement in physical activities was organized using thematic analysis. Results distinguished that level of engagement in physical activities may vary in age, gender, and capabilities. These also identified risks that may occur in too much participation in activities or not even participating. Most importantly, physical activities were beneficial to an individual's physiological, personal, and psychosocial aspects. Understanding the engagement and establishment of community-based activities with the characteristics of inclusivity that will increase the level of engagement and participation of every individual may be functional to increase the promotion of physical activities regardless of their age, gender, and capabilities to perform.

The research aims to build on Dyck and Greidanus’ (2016) study on the Quantum Sustainable Organizing Theory (QSOT) by analyzing Philippine sustainable enterprises and how they adopt and execute the principles of QSOT into their organization. The data gathered from the multiple-case study were collated and used to promote sustainability and build knowledge on the contemporary theory. The research utilized a qualitative embedded multiple-case study design in investigating the exhibition of QSOT in Philippine sustainable enterprises.
Through in-depth interviews with three (3) Philippine sustainable enterprises or potentially QSOT organizations, the paper identified and illustrated QSOT-aligned business practices, operations, and functions. Among the three Philippine sustainable enterprises studied, two were identified as fully QSOT-oriented companies. The researchers note that QSOT can be operationalized in the country; however, the success of adoption and integration is dependent on the industry, ability to innovate the business structure, entanglement of “external” entities, and financial capacity.
The study framed sustainable organizing practices in a manner that is concrete and specific—practices that enhance social and ecological well-being were elaborated. As the Quantum Sustainable Organizing Theory (QSOT) is a contemporary theory, more research is needed to understand the concept, especially in the Philippine context.

Published: September 2023

BACKGROUND:
Maternal serum markers used for trisomy 21 screening are associated with placenta-mediated complications. Recently, there has been a transition from the traditional first-trimester screening (FTS) that included PAPP-A (pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A) and beta-hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin), to the enhanced FTS test, which added first-trimester AFP (alpha-fetoprotein) and PlGF (placental growth factor). However, whether elevated first-trimester AFP has a similar association with placenta-mediated complications to that observed for elevated second-trimester AFP remains unclear. Our objective was to estimate the association of first-trimester AFP with placenta-mediated complications and compare it with the corresponding associations of second-trimester AFP and other first-trimester serum markers.

METHODS:
Retrospective population-based cohort study of women who underwent trisomy 21 screening in Ontario, Canada (2013–2019). The association of first-trimester AFP with placenta-mediated complications was estimated and compared with that of the traditional serum markers. The primary outcome was a composite of stillbirth or preterm placental complications (preeclampsia, birthweight less than third centile, or placental abruption).

RESULTS:
A total of 244 990 and 96 167 women underwent FTS and enhanced FTS test screening, respectively. All markers were associated with the primary outcome, but the association for elevated first-trimester AFP (adjusted relative risk [aRR], 1.57 [95% CI, 1.37–1.81]) was weaker than that observed for low PAPP-A (aRR, 2.48 [95% CI, 2.2–2.8]), low PlGF (aRR, 2.28 [95% CI, 1.97–2.64]), and elevated second-trimester AFP (aRR, 1.97 [95% CI, 1.81–2.15]). When the models were adjusted for all 4 enhanced FTS test markers, elevated first-trimester AFP was no longer associated with the primary outcome (aRR, 0.77 [95% CI, 0.58–1.02]).

CONCLUSIONS:
Unlike second-trimester AFP, elevated first-trimester AFP is not an independent risk factor for placenta-mediated complications.

Published: September 2023

Background
Obesity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, with differential impact across populations. This descriptive epidemiologic study outlines trends and disparities in obesity‐related cardiovascular mortality in the US population between 1999 and 2020.

Methods and Results
The Multiple Cause of Death database was used to identify adults with primary cardiovascular death and obesity recorded as a contributing cause of death. Cardiovascular deaths were grouped into ischemic heart disease, heart failure, hypertensive disease, cerebrovascular disease, and other. Absolute, crude, and age‐adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) were calculated by racial group, considering temporal trends and variation by sex, age, and residence (urban versus rural). Analysis of 281 135 obesity‐related cardiovascular deaths demonstrated a 3‐fold increase in AAMRs from 1999 to 2020 (2.2‐6.6 per 100 000 population). Black individuals had the highest AAMRs. American Indian or Alaska Native individuals had the greatest temporal increase in AAMRs (+415%). Ischemic heart disease was the most common primary cause of death. The second most common cause of death was hypertensive disease, which was most common in the Black racial group (31%). Among Black individuals, women had higher AAMRs than men; across all other racial groups, men had a greater proportion of obesity‐related cardiovascular mortality cases and higher AAMRs. Black individuals had greater AAMRs in urban compared with rural settings; the reverse was observed for all other races.

Conclusions
Obesity‐related cardiovascular mortality is increasing with differential trends by race, sex, and place of residence.

Published: September 2023

Background
We aimed to compare statin monotherapy and upfront combination therapy of statin and ezetimibe in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACSs).

Methods and Results

The study included consecutive patients with ACS included in the PL‐ACS (Polish Registry of Acute Coronary Syndromes), which is a national, multicenter, ongoing, prospective observational registry that is mandatory for patients with ACS hospitalized in Poland. Data were matched using the Mahalanobis distance within propensity score matching calipers. Multivariable stepwise logistic regression analysis, including all variables, was next used in propensity score matching analysis. Finally, 38 023 consecutive patients with ACS who were discharged alive were included in the analysis. After propensity score matching, 2 groups were analyzed: statin monotherapy (atorvastatin or rosuvastatin; n=768) and upfront combination therapy of statin and ezetimibe (n=768 patients). The difference in mortality between groups was significant during the follow‐up and was present at 1 (5.9% versus 3.5%;
P
=0.041), 2 (7.8% versus 4.3%;
P
=0.019), and 3 (10.2% versus 5.5%;
P
=0.024) years of follow‐up in favor of the upfront combination therapy, as well as for the overall period. For the treatment, rosuvastatin significantly improved prognosis compared with atorvastatin (odds ratio [OR], 0.790 [95% CI, 0.732–0.853]). Upfront combination therapy was associated with a significant reduction of all‐cause mortality in comparison with statin monotherapy (OR, 0.526 [95% CI, 0.378–0.733]), with absolute risk reduction of 4.7% after 3 years (number needed to treat=21).

Conclusions
The upfront combination lipid‐lowering therapy is superior to statin monotherapy for all‐cause mortality in patients with ACS. These results suggest that in high‐risk patients, such an approach, rather than a stepwise therapy approach, should be recommended.

Abstract
MIRACL is a multilingual dataset for ad hoc retrieval across 18 languages that collectively encompass over three billion native speakers around the world. This resource is designed to support monolingual retrieval tasks, where the queries and the corpora are in the same language. In total, we have gathered over 726k high-quality relevance judgments for 78k queries over Wikipedia in these languages, where all annotations have been performed by native speakers hired by our team. MIRACL covers languages that are both typologically close as well as distant from 10 language families and 13 sub-families, associated with varying amounts of publicly available resources. Extensive automatic heuristic verification and manual assessments were performed during the annotation process to control data quality. In total, MIRACL represents an investment of around five person-years of human annotator effort. Our goal is to spur research on improving retrieval across a continuum of languages, thus enhancing information access capabilities for diverse populations around the world, particularly those that have traditionally been underserved.

A Human Rights-Based Approach to Combating Corruption in the Education Sector in Indonesia
Authors: Juwita Ratna 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The education sector is prone to corruption because of the substantial amount of allocated funds and complex administrative layers that govern it. This article discusses the human rights-based approach to analyse corruption in the education sector in Indonesia. The data concerning education sector corruption are based on the judgment collection from the Corruption Eradication Commission Annual Reports from 2004 to 2018. Education sector corruption is classified into three types: grand corruption in procurement projects, obstruction of justice, and corruption related to decentralisation. The analysis showed that Indonesia’s efforts to realise the right to education cannot be achieved effectively and efficiently due to corruption. The human rights approach is used to formulate recommendations to combat education sector corruption to successfully realise the right to education. This article recommends that Indonesia must ensure the implementation of transparency and accountability in law, policy, and governance because corruption thrives where the State’s monopoly of power and discretion exists without accountability and transparency.
A new genus of Heterocampinae (Lepidoptera, Notodontidae) from Central and South America
Authors: St Laurent Ryan A. , Goldstein Paul Z. , Robbins Robert K. 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
We propose the name Millerocampa gen. n. in the Notodontidae (Heterocampinae) for Central and South American species. The species in this genus were originally described in the notodontid genus Cerura (Cerurinae) due to reflective white scales and black zigzagging patterns on the forewing dorsum, which are usually indicative of Cerurinae. However, based on recent phylogenomic data and morphological analyses, it has been shown that three names recently placed in the Heterocampinae genus Tecmessa belong to a relatively unrelated Heterocampinae genus Millerocampa gen. n., resulting in the following new combinations: Millerocampa gonema (Schaus), comb. n., type species of Millerocampa, and Millerocampa laqueata (Schaus), comb. n. The name Cerura olindata syn. n. is a synonym of M. gonema. Images of male and female adults, including all types, and genitalia of both recognized species of Millerocampa are presented.
Shifting Attitudes to Drinking Common Water in Dutch Medicine, 1630–1750
Authors: Pierik Bob 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The idea that water-drinking is healthy took shape in medical science throughout Europe from the seventeenth century onwards. This article adds new insights to this development through a focus on the Dutch field of medicine between 1630 and 1750. It shows how a major scientific context for this shift could be found in the specific combination of Helmontian iatrochemistry and Cartesian medicine. Yet, the development of thinking about drinking water was also very much shaped by social practices and technological advances outside of medicine. Chronologically, the increased social practice of the capture of rainwater and the technological improvements of cisterns and filtration systems in the seventeenth century precede the more positive medical opinion on water in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century. The idea that water-drinking was beneficial came into medicine through social practice, rather than the other way around. In the eighteenth century, water-drinking was seen as beneficial in the mainstream of medicine, with explicit references being made to earlier technological advances in filtration.

Abstract
This study presents the first numerical simulations of seeded clouds over the Snowy Mountains of Australia. WRF-WxMod, a novel glaciogenic cloud-seeding model, was utilized to simulate the cloud response to winter orographic seeding under various meteorological conditions. Three cases during the 2018 seeding periods were selected for model evaluation, coinciding with an intensive ground-based measurement campaign. The campaign data were used for model validation and evaluation. Comparisons between simulations and observations demonstrate that the model realistically represents cloud structures, liquid water path, and precipitation. Sensitivity tests were performed to pinpoint key uncertainties in simulating natural and seeded clouds and precipitation processes. They also shed light on the complex interplay between various physical parameters/processes and their interaction with large-scale meteorology. Our study found that in unseeded scenarios, the warm and cold biases in different initialization datasets can heavily influence the intensity and phase of natural precipitation. Secondary ice production via Hallett–Mossop processes exerts a secondary influence. On the other hand, the seeding impacts are primarily sensitive to aerosol conditions and the natural ice nucleation process. Both factors alter the supercooled liquid water availability and the precipitation phase, consequently impacting the silver iodide (AgI) nucleation rate. Furthermore, model sensitivities were inconsistent across cases, indicating that no single model configuration optimally represents all three cases. This highlights the necessity of employing an ensemble approach for a more comprehensive and accurate assessment of the seeding impact.

Significance Statement
Winter orographic cloud seeding has been conducted for decades over the Snowy Mountains of Australia for securing water resources. However, this study is the first to perform cloud-seeding simulation for a robust, event-based seeding impact evaluation. A state-of-the-art cloud-seeding model (WRF-WxMod) was used to simulate the cloud seeding and quantified its impact on the region. The Southern Hemisphere, due to low aerosol emissions and highly pristine cloud conditions, has distinctly different cloud microphysical characteristics than the Northern Hemisphere, where WRF-WxMod has been successfully applied in a few regions over the United States. The results showed that WRF-WxMod could accurately capture the clouds and precipitation in both the natural and seeded conditions.
Numerical Simulations of Internal Tide Dynamics in a Steep Submarine Canyon

Published: September 2023

Abstract
This study investigates three-dimensional semidiurnal internal tide (IT) energetics in the vicinity of La Jolla Canyon, a steep shelf submarine canyon off the Southern California coast, with the Stanford Unstructured Nonhydrostatic Terrain-Following Adaptive Navier–Stokes Simulator (SUNTANS) numerical simulator. Numerical simulations show vertical structure and temporal phasing consistent with detailed field observations. ITs induce large (approximately 34 m from peak to peak) isotherm displacements and net onshore IT energy flux up to 200 W m−1. Although the net IT energy flux is onshore, the steep supercritical slope around the canyon results in strong reflection. The model provides the full life span of internal tides around the canyon, including internal tide generation, propagation, and dissipation. ITs propagate into the canyon from the south and are reflected back toward offshore from the canyon’s north side. In the inner part of the canyon, elevated mixing occurs in the middle layer due to an interaction between incident mode-1 ITs and reflected higher-mode ITs. The magnitude of IT flux, generation, and dissipation on the south side of the canyon are higher than those on the north side. An interference pattern in horizontal kinetic energy and available potential energy with a scale of approximately 20–50 km arises due to low-mode wave reflections. Our results provide new insight into IT dynamics associated with a small-scale canyon topography.

Significance Statement
Internal waves play an important role in ocean circulations and ecosystems. In particular, internal waves with frequencies of tides, known as internal tides, strongly enhance energy, heat, and mass transport in coastal oceans. This study presents internal tide dynamics in La Jolla Canyon, California, using a high-resolution numerical model. Model results show energy convergence in the canyon leading to internal tide energy dissipation and mixing. Some parts of internal tide energy reflect back offshore resulting in standing internal waves off California. This study provides new insights into internal tide dynamics and energy budgets in submarine canyons.

In this study, we aimed to investigate the impact of acute fatigue on pistol shooting performance among Air Force marksmen. We compared the accuracy, precision, speed-accuracy trade-off, shooting cycle time, and hits on a silhouette target among 12 Brazilian Air Force servicemen ( M age = 21.5, SD – 1.6 years) under both fatigue and non-fatigue conditions in a crossover design. In the fatigued condition, the participants performed a fatigue protocol composed of side runs, vertical jumps, push-ups, running, and burpees exercises before shooting. Participants performed the countermovement jump and the plyometric push-ups tests on a contact mat before and immediately after the fatigue protocol to compare the heights achieved pre- and post-fatigue. Paired t-tests showed a significant performance reduction of 34.36% and 40.02% for the countermovement jump and plyometric push-ups, respectively, indicating that participants were fatigued in their lower and upper limbs. In the non-fatigued condition, no exercise was performed before shooting. Results indicated no significant differences between conditions on shooting precision ( p = .125; ES: .54), speed-accuracy trade-off ( p = .261; ES = .33), hits within the silhouette ( p = .167; ES = .41), or shooting cycle times ( p = .868; ES = .05); but accuracy was greater ( p = .025; ES: .54) when fatigued. We concluded that overall shooting performance was not impaired by physical fatigue, and shooting accuracy appeared to be improved. Perhaps physical fatigue was not enough to impair shooting accuracy in this young adult group, as accuracy decline is expected instead when shooters are in an exhausted state. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and test this presumption.
