<p><strong>OBJECTIVE: </strong>High cereal fiber and low glycemic index (GI) diets are associated with reduced cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in cohort studies. Clinical trial evidence on event incidence is lacking. Therefore, to make trial outcomes more directly relevant to CVD we compared the effect on carotid plaque development in diabetes of a low GI diet versus a whole grain wheat fiber diet. </p>
<p><strong>RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: </strong>169 men and women with well controlled type 2 diabetes were randomized to counseling on either low GI or whole grain wheat fiber diets for 3 years. Change in carotid vessel wall volume (VWV) (pre-specified primary endpoint) was assessed by magnetic resonance imaging as an indication of arterial damage. </p>
<p><strong>RESULTS: </strong>134 of 169 randomized participants completed the study. No treatment differences were seen in VWV. However, on the whole grain wheat fiber diet, VWV increased significantly from baseline, 23 mm3 (95% CI 4, 41) (p=0.016), but not on the low GI diet, 8 mm3 (95% CI-10, 26) (p=0.381). The low GI diet resulted in preservation of renal function, as eGFR, compared to the reduction following the wheat fiber diet. HbA1c was modestly reduced over the first 9 months in the intention-to-treat analysis, and extended with greater compliance to 15 months in the per-protocol analysis. </p>
<p><strong>CONCLUSION:</strong> Since the low GI diet was similar to the whole wheat fiber diet recommended for cardiovascular risk reduction, the low GI diet may also be effective for CVD risk reduction. </p>

The Internet of Things has become an evolving area of wireless technologies. Energy storage plays a crucial role in developing, implementing, and deploying the Internet of Things (IoT) to help solve some of the problems facing our daily activities. It is known that in batteries, energy-stored systems are able to get spoiled due to undercharging or over-charging and might profoundly affect the operation of the whole system. Electric and hybrid vehicles need an exact state-of-charge approximation technique to improve battery safety and lifetime and prevent damage. An efficient battery managing system is vital to accurately indicate the battery operating temperature and state of charge and protect the Battery against cell disproportion. This paper presents a simulation-based Battery Management System (BMS) for e-bikes, it was implemented on Arduino Nano. The battery parameters such as Temperature, Voltage, Current, State-of-Charge (SoC), and Depth-of-Discharging (DoD) will be sent to a cloud server via the BOLT IoT module, and a data analysis tool will be used to approximate bad battery pack cells. To effectively estimate the state-of charge of the system battery, three different mathematical models for a single and packed battery management system techniques, namely, Coulomb Counting (CC), the Unscented Kalman filter (UKF), and the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF), were proposed and explained in this study. The battery Management System is expected to improve the overall performance of the IoT-enabled systems and will also contribute to mass acceptance of renewable energy systems since Battery Management systems would be one of its key components.

The Covid-19 pandemic is a phenomenon that mental health scholars have not fully understood, which might adversely affect parenting. Previous studies have found that sociodemographic factors influence parenting stress in non-pandemic conditions. However, no study has discussed parenting stress during the Covid-19 pandemic. Therefore, the present study investigates the sociodemographic factors influencing parenting stress during the Covid-19 pandemic. Using a cross-sectional approach, we applied convenience sampling using online platforms to recruit the participants. Seven hundred ninety parents aged 20-57 participated in this study (mothers = 740, fathers = 50). The validated Indonesian version of the Parenting Stress Scale was administered online to measure parenting stress. The results identified that mothers experienced parenting stress more than fathers (t(788) = -2.83; p = 0.005; d = -3.28; 95% CI [-5.55; -1.00]). Furthermore, it revealed that financial condition was the only predictor of the parenting stress experienced by fathers (β = 0.39, p = 0.02). Apart from the financial condition, working status (β = -0.08, p = 0.04), educational background (β =-0.10, p = 0.02), and marital status (β = 0.13, p = 0.00) also predicted the level of parenting stress in mothers. Several sociodemographic variables associated with maternal parenting stress indicate the necessity of interventions to promote mothers' mental health, who are more prone to parenting stress than fathers.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
Bearded dragons (Pogona vitticeps), a popular zoological companion species, frequently require sedation for procedures. A novel formulation of alfaxalone with preservatives was FDA approved for 28-day use after the vial is breached. Research has been performed in squamate species using alfaxalone without preservatives at various doses and routes of administration, but it is unknown whether preservatives affect quality of sedation or cardiac function.

ANIMALS
10 bearded dragons.

PROCEDURES
This complete crossover study evaluated the pharmacodynamic effects of alfaxalone with preservatives administered to bearded dragons via intracoelomic (ICo; n = 10), SC (10), IM (9), and IV (9) injection at 15 mg/kg.

RESULTS
Deep sedation was achieved in 9 of 10 ICo, 8 of 10 SC, 8 of 9 IM, and 9 of 9 IV administrations. Heart rate significantly decreased from baseline for ICo (P = .008; median heart rate, 46), IM (P = .018; 54), and IV (P = .033; 54) routes, but maintained within clinically acceptable limits. Respiratory rate significantly decreased from baseline for ICo (P = .011; median respiratory rate, 30), SC (P = .024; 12), IM (P = .028; 12), and IV (P = .043; 12) routes. Spontaneous ventilation was retained during all events. Time to first effects was significantly sooner with IV (0 min) administration compared with ICo (P = .02; 5 min) and IM (P = .008; 5 min). Time to loss and recovery of withdrawal, righting reflex, deep pain, and purposeful movement were not significantly different between routes of administration. End-systolic volume was the only echocardiographic parameter significantly affected by IV sedation.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE
Sedation quality was most consistent via IV administration at 15 mg/kg, and minimal changes in cardiac function were observed.
Are these texts readable? An Analysis on the Readability Level of English Textbooks for Indonesian High Schools

Published: November 2022

Reading texts or passages from textbooks are commonly used as learning materials in the Indonesian EFL context. This leads to the emergence of readability or reading level analyses for EFL reading materials using conventional formulas which, unfortunately, were originally developed for either English as L1 or L2 context. Moreover, there are alternative readability formulas for EFL materials that are relatively newer yet still underused in the field. Hence, this current descriptive study aimed to address this gap by attempting to analyze the reading texts in three Senior High School English textbook series published by the Ministry of Education and Culture, using formulas measuring the readability level without grade-levelling and using simplified EFL reading materials. In this study, the two specific formulas employed to conduct the readability level analysis were Miyazaki EFL Readability Index and McAlpine EFLAW formula. The results showed that the overall Miyazaki EFL readability score of all reading texts in the 10th, 11th, 12th grade English textbooks was 50, categorized as having a “standard” difficulty. Meanwhile, based on the analysis using McAlpine EFLAW readability formula, the overall readability score was 20.86, which was considered as “very easy to understand”. Eventually, it could be concluded that the two formulas could be conveniently used to analyze the readability level of all the reading texts in the textbook series. Moreover, the texts could be deemed as of “suitable and understandable” level for the intended EFL students in Indonesia.

Integrating a critical reflection framework for experiential learning activities into a large first-year engineering course
Authors: Mattucci Stephen , Zhuang Kai , Harris Jeffrey , Jadidi Mojgan 
Published: November 2022

First-year university is an ideal time for students to begin the development of critical thinking and self-directed learning skills. Structuring critical reflection with experiential learning activities can provide opportunities for students to develop and learn how to apply these skills in the future. Previous research has identified considerations for implementing critical reflection into the first-year engineering curricula in ways that students will meaningfully engage. The primary goal of this work was to integrate critical reflection learning outcomes, activities, and assessments into the first-year engineering curriculum connected to experiential learning activities.
Critical reflection activities were scaffolded to a critical reflection framework, adapted to the first-year engineering context. Three critical reflection assessments were mapped to experiential learning activities to further the development of these skills in parallel, such as teamwork, problem solving, and communication. One assignment involved a peer review process, where students had the opportunity to learn from each other’s experiences, and give constructive feedback through learning of students’ shared university experiences.
The benefits of developing student reflection skills are obvious, and the improvements witnessed are encouraging. However, there remain many challenges, particularly with respect to assessment methodologies, and student motivation. Meaningful integration of critical reflection remains an iterative learning experience for the instructors.
First Thrive, Then Lead: An Emerging Approach to Engineering Leadership Education
Authors: Radebe Dimpho , Zhuang Kai 
Published: November 2022

The study of human psychology has demonstrated that satisfying a set of basic psychological needs - autonomy, relatedness, and compentence - is essential for personal well-being and thriving. However, student mental health data across North America indicates that students are experiencing high levels of stress, anxiety, and depression - an indication that they are not thriving. Our experiences of traditional approaches to leadership education, and engineering leadership education by extension, is that it tends to focus largely on the development of competence-based needs, such as specific individual leadership skills and attributes. The lack of focus on satisfying student psychological needs of autonomy and relatedness means that current approaches to engineering leadership education may not be fully supporting and preparing students to thrive, and therefore lead.
Our paper explores the possibilities of incorporating all three basic psychological needs essential to thriving through an expansive, transformational approach to engineering leadership education: First Thrive, Then Lead. Our emerging integrative and holistic approach to the development of engineering leadership education draws inspiration from traditional and non-European wisdoms and practices, as well as our personal lived experiences, and is grounded in well-established scientific theories.
