The effect of fan-themed apparel products’ signal explicitness on fans’ perceptions: the moderating effect of fanship
Authors: Smith-Glaviana Dina Cherise , Lee Jung Eun 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThis study investigated how film franchise fans with varying levels of fanship perceive subtle versus explicit signals featured on fan-themed apparel products. A between-subjects experimental design was conducted with two fan-themed t-shirt designs (explicit vs. subtle) × fanship (low vs. high). In this study, the joint effect between subtle vs. explicit designs and fanship was examined to address perceived differentiation, social connection, and purchase intention. For perceived differentiation and social connection, fans with high fanship perceived the subtle design to be more effective than explicit designs. While fans with low fanship perceived the subtle design to be more effective for differentiation, they perceived that the explicit design facilitated social connection more than the subtle design. When fans perceived that signals featured on fan-themed apparel products differentiated themselves from others and facilitated social connection, their purchase intentions increased. The study yielded several theoretical and practical implications. First, the study contributed to the literature on signaling theory, extending the definition of subtle signals to include a more diverse range of design details, such as the content of graphics rather than the visibility and size of brand logos. The study also extended the use of signaling theory and optimal distinctiveness theory to new research areas of fan-themed products. Second, practical implications for producers, marketers, and retailers of fan-themed apparel included the consideration of developing fan-themed apparel with subtle signals, co-creating products with fans, and targeting female fans through more inclusive merchandising practices.
Exercise Training in Heart failure with Preserved and Reduced Ejection Fraction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Authors: Edwards Jamie J. , O’Driscoll Jamie M. 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Background
While exercise training (ET) is an established tool in heart failure (HF), no research to date has analysed the efficacy of ET in both preserved (HFpEF) and reduced (HFrEF) ejection fraction phenotypes across the same clinically important parameters.

Methods
A comprehensive systematic search was performed to identify trials published between 1990 and May 2021. Controlled trials of adults reporting pre- and post-ET peak VO2, 6-min walk distance (6MWD), Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ), Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were considered. Parameters of cardiac diastolic function, brain natriuretic peptides (BNP)/N-terminal prohormone of BNP (NTproBNP) and follow-up hospitalisation and mortality data were also analysed.

Results
Ninety-three studies (11 HFpEF and 82 HFrEF) were included in the final analysis, with a pooled sample size of 11,081 participants. HFpEF analysis demonstrated significant improvements in peak VO2 (weighted mean difference: 2.333 ml·min-1·kg-1, Pfixed < 0.001), 6MWD (WMD: 35.396 m, Pfixed < 0.001), MLHFQ (WMD: − 10.932, Prandom < 0.001), KCCQ (WMD: 3.709, Pfixed = 0.037) and E/e′ (WMD: − 1.709, [95% CI] = − 2.91–0.51, Prandom = 0.005). HFrEF analysis demonstrated significant improvements in peak VO2 (WMD: 3.050 ml·min-1·kg-1, Prandom < 0.001), 6MWD (WMD: 37.299 m, Prandom < 0.001), MLHFQ (WMD: − 10.932, Prandom < 0.001), LVEF (WMD: 2.677%, Prandom = 0.002) and BNP/NTproBNP (SMD: − 1.349, Prandom < 0.001). Outcome analysis was only performed in HFrEF, which found no significant changes in hospitalisation, all-cause mortality or composite end-points.

Conclusion
ET significantly improves exercise capacity and quality of life in both HFpEF and HFrEF patients. In HFpEF patients, ET significantly improved an important index of diastolic function, with significant improvements in LVEF and NTproBNP/BNP seen in HFrEF patients only. Such benefits did not translate into significantly reduced hospitalisation or mortality after short-term follow-up.

Abstract
Objectives
Women with a history of gestational diabetes (GDM) are at 7-fold increase in the risk of developing diabetes. Insufficient sleep has also been shown to increase diabetes risk. This study aimed to explore the feasibility of a sleep extension in women with a history of GDM and short sleep, and effects on glucose metabolism.

Methods
Women age 18–45 years with a history of GDM and actigraphy confirmed short sleep duration (<7 h/night) on weekdays were randomized at a ratio of 1 control (heathy living information) to 2 cases (6 weeks of “Sleep-Extend” intervention: use of a Fitbit, weekly digital content, and weekly coaching to increase sleep duration). An oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), 7-day actigraphy recording, and questionnaires were obtained at baseline and 6 weeks. Mean differences between baseline and end-of-intervention parameters were compared using independent samples t-tests.

Results
Mean (SD) sleep duration increased within the Sleep-Extend group (n=9, +26.9 (42.5) min) but decreased within the controls (n=5, − 9.1 (20.4) min), a mean difference (MD) of 35.9 min (95% confidence interval (CI) − 8.6, 80.5). Fasting glucose increased, but less in Sleep-Extend vs. control groups (1.6 (9.4) vs 10.4 (8.2) mg/dL, MD − 8.8 mg/dL (95% CI − 19.8, 2.1), while 2-h glucose levels after an OGTT did not differ. Compared to controls, Sleep-Extend had decreased fatigue score (MD − 10.6, 95%CI − 20.7, − 0.6), and increased self-report physical activity (MD 5036 MET- minutes/week, 95%CI 343, 9729. Fitbit compliance and satisfaction in Sleep-Extend group was high.

Conclusion
Sleep extension is feasible in women with a history of GDM, with benefits in fatigue and physical activity, and possibly glucose metabolism. These data support a larger study exploring benefits of sleep extension on glucose metabolism in these high-risk women.

An improved strategy for out-of-step oscillation separation devices based on apparent impedance angle applied to a series compensated line
Authors: Xu Haibo , Cai Yupeng , Qu Xiaolei , Dong Zhiwei 
Published: June 2022

AbstractOut-of-step oscillation separation devices based on apparent impedance angle trajectory are widely used in the power grid in China, and their reliability is of great importance. In this paper, the influence mechanism of series compensation on apparent impedance angle trajectory is analyzed. It reveals that series compensation capacitors reduce the equivalent impedance angle and consequently the apparent impedance angle cannot pass through all four zones, resulting in the risk of failure for the separation devices. A revised method of apparent impedance angle based on compensation principle is discussed, and then an improved out-of-step oscillation detection criterion is proposed. In view of the fact that the apparent impedance angle at the moment of maximum current is equal to the equivalent impedance angle during an oscillation process, a practical algorithm based on the compensated apparent impedance angle is proposed. RTDS tests are conducted to verify the effectiveness of the new criterion, considering transmission lines with a high series compensation level.
Global trends of suicidal thought, suicidal ideation, and self-harm during COVID-19 pandemic: a systematic review
Authors: Shobhana S S , Raviraj K. G 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Background
Suicide is one of the leading causes of death. The current systematic review is done to know the trend of suicidal thoughts, suicidal ideation, and self-harm during COVID-19 pandemic.

Main text
The search was done by using PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases. With the help of Mendeley portal, articles were retrieved on the basis of inclusion criteria like to know the risk factors, vulnerable group, complete article PDFs, prevention strategies, aims, results, and limitations. The shortlisted data from search was tabulated, and the PRISMA chart was framed based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Result
Sixteen studies that satisfied the inclusion criteria were organized and selected. The variables and global scenario were considered in databases. It has been noticed that trends of suicidal thoughts, suicidal ideation, and self-harm remains the same in some countries like Japan, whereas in some countries like Bangladesh and France, trends of suicides had increased during the pandemic period. The probable cause could be lockdown, social isolation, and stoppage of recreational activities.

Conclusions
The trends of suicidal ideation, suicidal thoughts, and self-harm are more in vulnerable categories like health care professionals, university students, elderly individuals, and psychiatrically ill patients. In health care professional, it is due to the increased risk of contagion and watching deaths closely. In university students, it is due to the lack of recreational activities and social isolation. Among elderly, it is due to thinking themselves as overburden. The increase in suicidality in psychiatric ill patient admitted during COVID-19 pandemic is due to unknown cause.

Abstract
Background
The notorious invasive pest fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), native to Americas entered the Asian continent and was first time reported on maize from India in 2018. The predatory species Rhynocoris marginatus (Fab.) (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) has been reported as a potential predator that preys on a number of economic pests in India such as Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner), Spodoptera litura (Fabricius), Mythimna separata (Walker), and Anomis flava (Fabricius). The present study described the biology and feeding potential of the predator on S. frugiperda under laboratory conditions where temperature and relative humidity varied from 26 to 28 °C and 75–80%, respectively, and the photoperiod was L12: D12 hrs.

Results
Incubation period and the total nymphal/developmental period of the predator were 9.65 and 55.89 days, respectively. The percentage of survivorship of nymphs to adults was 62.50%. Females showed a higher longevity than males. The predator’s fecundity reached 349.30 eggs/female, laid in 6 to 8 batches. Abdominal length and width were greater in the case of females than in males. Male consumed about 158.55 larvae of the fifth instar prey, at an average of 1.86 larvae per day. Females consumed a greater number of larvae (184.95) than males, with a higher daily predation rate of 1.93 larvae. Time taken to approach the prey was longer in the case of males (5.58 min) than females (3.57 min), whereas handling time was longer in females (115.37 min) than in males (85.71 min). Weight gained by females (61.90 mg) was higher than that by males (44.20 mg) after 24 h of predation.

Conclusions
The present study revealed that female adult predator and fifth-instar nymphs of R. marginatus preyed efficiently on S. frugiperda. The shorter ovipositional period of the predator was a positive sign for its mass multiplication, enabling rapid buildup of the predator population. This study is a step in the evaluation of the efficacy of R. marginatus feeding on fall armyworm. Further field studies are required on its mass release and effect in reducing the fall armyworm larval population.

Published: June 2022

Abstract
Background
Virulence of the entomopathogenic nematode, Heterorhabditis indica against larvae (3rd, 4th and 5th larval instars) and pupae of citrus fruit piercing moth, Eudocima materna L. (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) was evaluated under laboratory conditions. The experiments included pathogenicity assessment of H. indica against larvae and pupae using a range of concentrations (10, 25, 50, 100 and 200 infective juveniles (IJs) larva−1 and pupa−1) as well as evaluation of their reproductive potential on different larval instars with different concentrations (50, 100, 200, 400 and 600 IJs larva−1).

Results
Application of increasing concentrations of IJs induced higher mortality on larval instars and pupae with mean mortality ranging from 26.6 to 100% (LC50- 3rd (14.43 IJs larva−1), 4th (17.08 IJs larva−1), 5th (23.63 IJs larva−1)) and 10–70% (LC50- 85.91 IJs pupa−1) after 48 h post-exposure, respectively. H. indica successfully reproduced in the 3rd, 4th and 5th larval instars of E. materna and their offspring emerged from the cadavers. The highest reproduction was recorded in 5th instar larvae (1,082,855 IJs larva−1) at 600 IJs larva−1 in E. materna.

Conclusion
The present study suggests that H. indica strain had the potential for biological control of E. materna.
Is the consumption of energy drink beneficial or detrimental to health: a comprehensive review?
Authors: Ariffin Hani’ , Chong Xiu Qing , Chong Pei Nee , Okechukwu Patrick Nwabueze 
Published: June 2022

AbstractBackgroundEnergy drinks (EDs) are a type of beverage that mostly contains caffeine and other dietary supplements (if present) and does not contain any alcohol in the ingredients. The products in this category include Red Bull, Redline, Monster, Full Throttle, and others. They are claimed to help in boosting energy, stamina, sports performance, and concentration among individuals. This article focused on the review of the benefits and disadvantages of consumption of energy drinks to health and well-being. ED provides health benefits effects such as improved physical performance, mood and attitude, cognition, and weight loss. Some adverse negative health challenges have been linked to consumption of ED. Therefore, this review is a wholistic appraisal of benefits or detriments of consumption of energy drink to our health and suggestions to curtail the excesses of ED consumption.Main bodyEnergy drink has been around since 1950, and it is marketed as energy booster and comes in different types, energy shots, fruit-based, non-fruit-based (regular), sugar-free, and plant-based. These products are marketed as a low-calorie “instant” energy drink that can be consumed in a single sip, or bottle to boost energy or to boost the nutritional value of conventional products. Many of them contain different ingredients such as caffeine, guarana, ginseng, yerba mate, acai berry, ginkgo biloba, methylxanthines, sugar, glucuronolactone, taurine, maltodextrin, B vitamins. Vitamin B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B6 (pyridoxine, pyridoxal, and pyridoxamine), Inositol B8 and B12, vitamin C and vitamin D; calcium, Iron, chromium, zinc, manganese, molybdenum; artificial sweeteners, aspartame, and sucralose. Health benefits such as improved physical performance, improved mood and attitude, improved concentration, and memory, good source of vitamin B and weight loss have been reported. Negative impact on health such as adverse cardiovascular effect, headaches, epileptic seizures, ischemic stroke, hallucinations, muscular twitching, restlessness, sleeplessness, anxiety, depression, gastrointestinal effect, renal effects, dental effects, obesity and type II diabetes, cancer, and caffeine toxicity has been reported.ConclusionsMost of the health detriments caused because of consumption of energy drink is mostly due to the presence of excess quantity of caffeine and sugar. If the quantities of caffeine and sugar content in energy drink are kept at FDA- and WHO-recommended daily consumption amount, then it will not be present any problem to health. Consumption of energy drink that contains natural ingredients such as yerba mate, acai berry, ginkgo biloba, methylxanthines, amino acid, guarana, and ginseng with moderate FDA- and WHO-approved daily consumption of caffeine and sugar is not detrimental to health.

Published: June 2022

Abstract
Background
Performance of rabbit is hinged on many factors of which the birth weights, gestation length and the litter size are most important. Linear body traits provide vital information on the performance, productivity and carcass characteristics which could be useful tool for the improvement in genetic potentials of rabbits. Therefore, this study investigated the effects of genotype, gestation length and litter size on the birth weight, pre- and post-weaning weight of crossbred kits.

Results
Five breeds: Rex (RX), Dutch-belted (DBT), New Zealand white (NZW), Californian white (CFW) and local breed (LAB) of rabbit were used for the study. A foundation stock of 40 growing rabbits consisting of six does and two bucks were used for the crossing experiment. Genotype exerted significant influence (P < 0.01) on the litter weight at birth as well as on the body weight of the kits at 21st and 35th days. The kit kindled from mating CFWxDBT breeds had the highest mean body weight from birth (91.90 ± 9.84 g) to 35th days (368.25 ± 17.36 g), while the crosses of DBTxCFW recorded the least mean body weight from birth (74.25 ± 1.78 g) to 35th days (332.60 ± 12.54 g). Gestation length significantly (P < 0.05) influenced individual and litter birth weights, pre- and post-weaning weights of kits. Does with short gestation length (29 days) had kits with light body weight compared to those with longer period of gestation (34 days). More so, kits belonging to large litter size (7) had the lowest body weight at birth as well as 21st and 35th day (69.93 ± 1.63 g, 209.57 ± 3.70 g, 319.11 ± 9.22 g) compared to kits that belonged to small litter group size. Highly significant (P < 0.01) and the strongest phenotypic relationships were recorded between body weight at day 21 and day 35 for all crosses, while weak and negative genetic correlation (r =  − 0.19) was observed between litter birth weight and individual birth weight of crossbred kits.

Conclusion
Crossbreeding produces offspring with better performances. Birth weight of kits is a prediction tool for the overall performance of rabbits provided the environment is uninterrupted.

Published: June 2022

Abstract
Background
Nutritional care in patients with a severe head injury is of utmost importance, as nutritional deficiency can affect the outcomes in these patients. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility, and an outcome of performing bedside percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy in severe head injury patients. This study was conducted in a tertiary care institute. Patients with head injury with a Glasgow coma scale score ≤ 8 were included. Among 50 patients, 25 patients underwent percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy and 25 patients underwent open feeding gastrostomy, within 72 h to up to 3 weeks from admission.

Results
The commonest subset in the study population was between18 and 30 years age group. Among 50 patients 43 (86%) were men and 7 (14%) were women with the men to women ratio being 6:1. The mean operative time for performing PEG was 12.04 SD 3.72 min, whereas for open feeding gastrostomy was 96.8 SD 9.98 min which was statistically significant (P = 0.0001). The complication rate for the PEG subgroup was 24% and that for feeding gastrostomy was 56% which was statistically significant (P = 0.02).

Conclusions
Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy is a minimally invasive and time-saving procedure, which is superior to open feeding gastrostomy in terms of a prerequisite of anaesthesia, operating room, and few post-operative complications.
COVID-19 presenting after Elective Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting and Lessons Learned
Authors: Bhattacharya Sudipto , Bandyopadhyay Ashok , Pahari Satyabrata , Das Sankha , Dey Asim Kumar 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Background
Cases of COVID-19 presenting after elective cardiac surgery are rare. Published literature suggests that such cases have a high morbidity and mortality rate. Here, we report a case of COVID-19 presenting after an elective, isolated off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB).

Case presentation
A 65-year-old obese, hypertensive, hypothyroid lady, with moderate left ventricular dysfunction, presenting with unstable angina, tested negative for COVID-19 at admission, having undergone thrombolysis for a recent inferior wall myocardial infarction, at an outside centre, and coronary angiography revealing left main triple vessel disease, developed signs and symptoms of COVID-19, four days after OPCAB. She was diagnosed with moderate COVID-19 infection. Subsequent contact tracing revealed that her husband was suffering from mild COVID-19 infection and was managed in home isolation. Isolation and early supportive management with moist oxygen, steroids, intravenous antibiotics, zinc and vitamin C helped the patient recover. She was followed up at one month, six months, one year and at eighteen months and has been doing well.

Conclusions
A strong clinical suspicion and repeat testing for COVID-19 is required as the diagnosis may often be missed with COVID-19 mimicking the signs and symptoms of post-cardiotomy syndrome. Preferentially dealing with such cases off-pump, thereby avoiding cardio pulmonary bypass-related complications, may improve outcomes. Isolation and early supportive management help. Adequate follow-up is required in all such cases as cardiovascular complications are common, alongside known long-term sequelae, like anxiety, depression, cardio-respiratory complications, venous thromboembolism and even postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome.
