International society of sports nutrition position stand: diets and body composition
Creators: name: Smith-Ryan, Abbie
Publisher: name: BioMed Central
Year: 2017

description: Abstract Position Statement: The International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN) bases the following position stand on a critical analysis of the literature regarding the effects of diet types (macronutrient composition; eating styles) and their influence on body composition. The ISSN has concluded the following. 1) There is a multitude of diet types and eating styles, whereby numerous subtypes fall under each major dietary archetype. 2) All body composition assessment methods have strengths and limitations. 3) Diets primarily focused on fat loss are driven by a sustained caloric deficit. The higher the baseline body fat level, the more aggressively the caloric deficit may be imposed. Slower rates of weight loss can better preserve lean mass (LM) in leaner subjects. 4) Diets focused primarily on accruing LM are driven by a sustained caloric surplus to facilitate anabolic processes and support increasing resistance-training demands. The composition and magnitude of the surplus, as well as training status of the subjects can influence the nature of the gains. 5) A wide range of dietary approaches (low-fat to low-carbohydrate/ketogenic, and all points between) can be similarly effective for improving body composition. 6) Increasing dietary protein to levels significantly beyond current recommendations for athletic populations may result in improved body composition. Higher protein intakes (2.3–3.1 g/kg FFM) may be required to maximize muscle retention in lean, resistance-trained subjects under hypocaloric conditions. Emerging research on very high protein intakes (>3 g/kg) has demonstrated that the known thermic, satiating, and LM-preserving effects of dietary protein might be amplified in resistance-training subjects. 7) The collective body of intermittent caloric restriction research demonstrates no significant advantage over daily caloric restriction for improving body composition. 8) The long-term success of a diet depends upon compliance and suppression or circumvention of mitigating factors such as adaptive thermogenesis. 9) There is a paucity of research on women and older populations, as well as a wide range of untapped permutations of feeding frequency and macronutrient distribution at various energetic balances combined with training. Behavioral and lifestyle modification strategies are still poorly researched areas of weight management.

description: The geometry of Borromean three-body halos, such as two-neutron halo nuclei or triatomic molecules close to dissociation, is investigated using a three-body model. This model enables to analytically derive the universal geometric properties found recently within an effective-field theory for halos made of a core and two resonantly-interacting particles [Phys. Rev. Lett., 128, 212501 (2022)]. It is shown that these properties not only apply to the ground three-body state, but also to all the excited (Efimov) states where the core-particle interaction is resonant. Furthermore, a universal geometry persists away from the resonant regime between the two particles, for any state close to the three-body threshold. This "halo universality" is different from the Efimov universality which is only approximate for the ground state. It is explained by the separability of the hyper-radius and hyper-angles close to the three-body dissociation threshold.

description: The quantum corrections related to the ideal gas model that are often considered are those which are related to the particles nature: bosons or fermions. These corrections lead respectively to the Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac statistics. However, in this work, other kinds of corrections which are related to the quantum nature of phase space are considered. These corrections are introduced as improvement in the expression of the partition function of an ideal gas. Then corrected thermodynamics properties of the gas are deduced. Both the non-relativistic quantum and relativistic quantum cases are considered. It is shown that the corrections in the non-relativistic quantum case may be particularly useful to describe the deviation from classical behavior of a Maxwell-Boltzmann gas at low temperature and in confined space. These corrections can be considered as including the description of quantum size and shape effects. For the relativistic quantum case, the corrections could be relevant for confined space and when the thermal energy of each particle is comparable to their rest energy. The corrections appear mainly as modifications in the thermodynamic equation of state and in the expressions of the partition function and thermodynamic functions like entropy, internal energy, and free energy. Classical expressions are obtained as asymptotic limits.

description: Abstract Background Low literacy and numeracy skills are common. Adequate numeracy skills are crucial in the management of diabetes. Diabetes patients use numeracy skills to interpret glucose meters, administer medications, follow dietary guidelines and other tasks. Existing literacy scales may not be adequate to assess numeracy skills. This paper describes the development and psychometric properties of the Diabetes Numeracy Test (DNT), the first scale to specifically measure numeracy skills used in diabetes. Methods The items of the DNT were developed by an expert panel and refined using cognitive response interviews with potential respondents. The final version of the DNT (43 items) and other relevant measures were administered to a convenience sample of 398 patients with diabetes. Internal reliability was determined by the Kuder-Richardson coefficient (KR-20). An a priori hypothetical model was developed to determine construct validity. A shortened 15-item version, the DNT15, was created through split sample analysis. Results The DNT had excellent internal reliability (KR-20 = 0.95). The DNT was significantly correlated (p < 0.05) with education, income, literacy and math skills, and diabetes knowledge, supporting excellent construct validity. The mean score on the DNT was 61% and took an average of 33 minutes to complete. The DNT15 also had good internal reliability (KR-20 = 0.90 and 0.89). In split sample analysis, correlations of the DNT-15 with the full DNT in both sub-samples was high (rho = 0.96 and 0.97, respectively). Conclusion The DNT is a reliable and valid measure of diabetes related numeracy skills. An equally adequate but more time-efficient version of the DNT, the DNT15, can be used for research and clinical purposes to evaluate diabetes related numeracy.

description: Accurately modeling dense plasmas over wide ranging conditions of pressure and temperature is a grand challenge critically important to our understanding of stellar and planetary physics as well as inertial confinement fusion. In this work, we employ Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) molecular dynamics (MD) to compute the properties of carbon at warm and hot dense matter conditions in the vicinity of the principal Hugoniot. In particular, we calculate the equation of state (EOS), Hugoniot, pair distribution functions, and diffusion coefficients for carbon at densities spanning 8 g/cm$^3$ to 16 g/cm$^3$ and temperatures ranging from 100 kK to 10 MK using the Spectral Quadrature (SQ) method. We find that the computed EOS and Hugoniot are in good agreement with path integral Monte Carlo results and the SESAME database. Additionally, we calculate the ion-ion structure factor and viscosity for selected points. All results presented are at the level of full Kohn-Sham DFT MD, free of empirical parameters, average-atom, and orbital-free approximations employed previously at such conditions.

description: DKD guidelines are application documents regarding the DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025 requirements. The guidelines contain a description of the technical, process-related and the organizational procedures which accredited calibration laboratories use as a model for defining internal processes and regulations. DKD guidelines may become an essential component of the quality management manuals of calibration laboratories. By implementing the guidelines, it is ensured that the devices to be calibrated are all treated equally in the various calibration laboratories and that the continuity and verifiability of the work of the calibration laboratories are improved. The DKD guidelines should not impede the further development of calibration procedures and processes. Deviations from guidelines as well as new procedures are allowed in agreement with the accreditation body if there are technical reasons to support this action. The present guideline was drawn up by the Technical Committees Chemical Measurands and Material Properties / Technical Subcommittee Volume / Density in cooperation with PTB and the accredited calibration laboratories. Calibrations by accredited laboratories provide the user with the security of reliable measuring results, increase the confidence of customers, enhance competitiveness in the national and international markets, and serve as metrological basis for the monitoring of measuring and test equipment within the framework of quality assurance measures. In preparation for the guideline, two pilot studies were carried out in the form of interlaboratory comparisons. The first pilot study (Interlaboratory comparison for the calibration of manual dispensers (direct displacement), reference number V/0006/12) served to establish an extensive data pool and included measurements by accredited calibration laboratories, each with two mechanical and two electronic multiple delivery dispensers. A subsequent interlaboratory comparison (Interlaboratory comparison for calibration of manual dispensers (direct displacement) Part 2 / focus on tip change, reference number V/0012/14) dealt with the influence of changing the dispenser tip; the measurements were carried out using the same calibration items. This guideline was drawn up by the Technical Committee Chemical Measurands and Material Properties and approved by the Board of the DKD.
Ordering Interrogative Questions for Effective Requirements Engineering: The W6H Pattern

description: Requirements elicitation and requirements analysis are important practices of Requirements Engineering. Elicitation techniques, such as interviews and questionnaires, rely on formulating interrogative questions and asking these in a proper order to maximize the accuracy of the information being gathered. Information gathered during requirements elicitation then has to be interpreted, analyzed, and validated. Requirements analysis involves analyzing the problem and solutions spaces. In this paper, we describe a method to formulate interrogative questions for effective requirements elicitation based on the lexical and semantic principles of the English language interrogatives, and propose a pattern to organize stakeholder viewpoint concerns for better requirements analysis. This helps requirements engineer thoroughly describe problem and solutions spaces. Most of the previous requirements elicitation studies included six out of the seven English language interrogatives 'what', 'where', 'when', 'who', 'why', and 'how' (denoted by W5H) and did not propose any order in the interrogatives. We show that extending the set of six interrogatives with 'which' (denoted by W6H) improves the generation and formulation of questions for requirements elicitation and facilitates better requirements analysis via arranging stakeholder views. We discuss the interdependencies among interrogatives (for requirements engineer to consider while eliciting the requirements) and suggest an order for the set of W6H interrogatives. The proposed W6H-based reusable pattern also aids requirements engineer in organizing viewpoint concerns of stakeholders, making this pattern an effective tool for requirements analysis.

description: Although, the fair amount of works in sentiment analysis (SA) and opinion mining (OM) systems in the last decade and with respect to the performance of these systems, but it still not desired performance, especially for morphologically-Rich Language (MRL) such as Arabic, due to the complexities and challenges exist in the nature of the languages itself. One of these challenges is the detection of idioms or proverbs phrases within the writer text or comment. An idiom or proverb is a form of speech or an expression that is peculiar to itself. Grammatically, it cannot be understood from the individual meanings of its elements and can yield different sentiment when treats as separate words. Consequently, In order to facilitate the task of detection and classification of lexical phrases for automated SA systems, this paper presents AIPSeLEX a novel idioms/ proverbs sentiment lexicon for modern standard Arabic (MSA) and colloquial. AIPSeLEX is manually collected and annotated at sentence level with semantic orientation (positive or negative). The efforts of manually building and annotating the lexicon are reported. Moreover, we build a classifier that extracts idioms and proverbs, phrases from text using n-gram and similarity measure methods. Finally, several experiments were carried out on various data, including Arabic tweets and Arabic microblogs (hotel reservation, product reviews, and TV program comments) from publicly available Arabic online reviews websites (social media, blogs, forums, e-commerce web sites) to evaluate the coverage and accuracy of AIPSeLEX.

description: We discuss spectral correlations in coarse-grained chaotic two-dimensional CFTs with large central charge. We study a partition function describing the dense part of the spectrum of primary states in a way that disentangles the chaotic properties of the spectrum from those which are a consequence of Virasoro symmetry and modular invariance. We argue that random matrix universality in the near-extremal limit is an independent feature of each spin sector separately; this is a non-trivial statement because the exact spectrum is fully determined by only the spectrum of spin zero primaries and those of a single non-zero spin ("spectral determinacy"). We then describe an argument analogous to the one leading to Cardy's formula for the averaged density of states, but in our case applying it to spectral correlations: assuming statistical universalities in the near-extremal spectrum in all spin sectors, we find similar random matrix universality in a large spin regime far from extremality.

description: For the calibration and performance verification of optical micro coordinate measuring machines we have developed an artefact which is based on small spherical elements with optically cooperative surfaces. It is in fact a three-dimensional ball plate with a number of different micro-spheres arranged on an amphitheatre-like glass substrate. The micro-spheres were produced with an adequate quality in terms of roughness and sphericity and an engineered surface texture, which is optically cooperative and thus suitable for optical sensors based on focus variation, chromatic, confocal or astigmatic sensor principles. The application of the calibration artefact allows to evaluate instrument parameters such as volumetric length measurement errors, calibration factors of the three axes separately, orthogonality errors between all three axes, alignment errors of the optical sensor with respect to the instrument axes, as well as scale and form errors of the optical sensor.

description: Abstract: In endemic areas, Plasmodium vivax relapses are difficult to distinguish from new infections. Genotyping of patients who experience relapse after returning to a malaria-free area can be used to explore the nature of hypnozoite activation and relapse. This paper describes a person who developed P. vivax malaria for the first time after travelling to Boriziny in the malaria endemic coastal area of Madagascar, then suffered two P. vivax relapses 11 weeks and 21 weeks later despite remaining in Antananarivo in the malaria-free central highlands area. He was treated with the combination artesunate + amodiaquine according to the national malaria policy in Madagascar. Genotyping by PCR-RFLP at pvmsp-3α as well as pvmsp1 heteroduplex tracking assay (HTA) showed the same dominant genotype at each relapse. Multiple recurring minority variants were also detected at each relapse, highlighting the propensity for multiple hypnozoite clones to activate simultaneously to cause relapse.

description: Information capacity enhancement through the coherent control of channels has attracted much attention of late, with work exploring the effect of coherent control of channel causal orders, channel superpositions, and information encoding. Coherently controlling channels necessitates a non-trivial expansion of the channel description, which for superposing qubit channels, is equivalent to expanding the channel to act on qutrits. Here we explore the nature of this capacity enhancement for the superposition of channels by comparing the maximum coherent information through depolarizing qubit channels and relevant superposed and qutrit channels. We show that the expanded qutrit channel description in itself is sufficient to explain the capacity enhancement without any use of superposition.

description: A cultural resource assessment of prehistoric and historic resources was conducted for Sheppard Air Force Base on July 14-16, 1993. The assessment was part of cultural resource archeological baseline survey requested by Headquarters Air Education and Training Command. The assessment included an archeological reconnaissance survey of the base and identification of buildings and structures built between 1928 and 1950. The base contains 5,056 acres which were inspected during the reconnaissance level survey. No archeological resources were identified. The base also contains 1,493 facilities including 1,159 buildings and structures. Of these, 19 permanent facilities, 54 semi-permanent facilities, and 18 auxiliary facilities were constructed between 1928 and 1950. Approximately six buildings were constructed in 1928 as part of the original Wichita Falls Municipal Airport (Kell Field). The Kell Field Air Terminal Building (Fae. No. 2130) was recorded as a Texas Historic Landmark in 1981. Based on the lack of archeological resources, no further archeological work is recommended. It is recommended that a historical structures inventory and evaluation, Cultural Resource Management Plan, National Register of Historic Places nomination, and Programmatic Agreement be completed for the 74 buildings identified from the base's Real Property Inventory records.

description: To meet the increasing uncertainty demands for the calibration of tactile coordinate measuring machines the PTB aims to provide calibrated artefacts with an uncertainty in the range of 30 nm. Therefore, the Nanometer Comparator will be upgraded with a tactile sensor system to add the capability to measure step gauges. A concept of the integration of a tactile sensor into the machine setup is presented and two different sensors were analysed by repetitively contacting a gauge block face. With a sensor based on a silicon flexure and two fibre interferometers a (1) repeatability of less than 7 nm was achieved.

description: The RecA protein and RecBCD complex are key bacterial components for the maintenance and repair of DNA, RecBCD a helicase-nuclease that uses homologous recombination to resolve double-stranded DNA breaks and also facilitating decoration of single-stranded DNA with RecA to form RecA filaments, a vital step in the double-stranded break DNA repair pathway. However, questions remain about the mechanistic roles of RecA and RecBCD in live cells. Here, we use millisecond super-resolved fluorescence microscopy to pinpoint the spatial localization of fluorescent reporters of RecA and the RecB at physiological levels of expression in individual live Escherichia coli cells. By introducing the DNA crosslinker mitomycin C, we induce DNA damage and quantify the resulting changes in stoichiometry, copy number and molecular mobilities of RecA and RecB. We find that both proteins accumulate in molecular hotspots to effect repair, resulting in RecA filamental stoichiometries equivalent to several hundred molecules that act largely in RecA tetramers before DNA damage, but switch to approximately hexameric subunits when mature filaments are formed. Unexpectedly, we find that the physiologically predominant form of RecB is a dimer.

description: Abstract Background Global coronary heart disease (CHD) risk assessment is recommended to guide primary preventive pharmacotherapy. However, little is known about physicians' understanding and use of global CHD risk assessment. Our objective was to examine US physicians' awareness, use, and attitudes regarding global CHD risk assessment in clinical practice, and how these vary by provider specialty. Methods Using a web-based survey of US family physicians, general internists, and cardiologists, we examined awareness of tools available to calculate CHD risk, method and use of CHD risk assessment, attitudes towards CHD risk assessment, and frequency of using CHD risk assessment to guide recommendations of aspirin, lipid-lowering and blood pressure (BP) lowering therapies for primary prevention. Characteristics of physicians indicating they use CHD risk assessments were compared in unadjusted and adjusted analyses. Results A total of 952 physicians completed the questionnaire, with 92% reporting awareness of tools available to calculate CHD global risk. Among those aware of such tools, over 80% agreed that CHD risk calculation is useful, improves patient care, and leads to better decisions about recommending preventive therapies. However, only 41% use CHD risk assessment in practice. The most commonly reported barrier to CHD risk assessment is that it is too time consuming. Among respondents who calculate global CHD risk, 69% indicated they use it to guide lipid lowering therapy recommendations; 54% use it to guide aspirin therapy recommendations; and 48% use it to guide BP lowering therapy. Only 40% of respondents who use global CHD risk routinely tell patients their risk. Use of a personal digital assistant or smart phone was associated with reported use of CHD risk assessment (adjusted OR 1.58; 95% CI 1.17-2.12). Conclusions Reported awareness of tools to calculate global CHD risk appears high, but the majority of physicians in this sample do not use CHD risk assessments in practice. A minority of physicians in this sample use global CHD risk to guide prescription decisions or to motivate patients. Educational interventions and system improvements to improve physicians' effective use of global CHD risk assessment should be developed and tested.
Estimation of Constrained Mean-Covariance of Normal Distributions

description: Estimation of the mean vector and covariance matrix is of central importance in the analysis of multivariate data. In the framework of generalized linear models, usually the variances are certain functions of the means with the normal distribution being an exception. We study some implications of functional relationships between covariance and the mean by focusing on the maximum likelihood and Bayesian estimation of the mean-covariance under the joint constraint $\bmΣ\bmμ = \bmμ$ for a multivariate normal distribution. A novel structured covariance is proposed through reparameterization of the spectral decomposition of $\bmΣ$ involving its eigenvalues and $\bmμ$. This is designed to address the challenging issue of positive-definiteness and to reduce the number of covariance parameters from quadratic to linear function of the dimension. We propose a fast (noniterative) method for approximating the maximum likelihood estimator by maximizing a lower bound for the profile likelihood function, which is concave. We use normal and inverse gamma priors on the mean and eigenvalues, and approximate the maximum aposteriori estimators by both MH within Gibbs sampling and a faster iterative method. A simulation study shows good performance of our estimators.
Towards a Comprehensive Theory of Metal-Insulator Transitions in Doped Semiconductors

description: A review is given on the theory of metal-insulator transitions (MIT) in doped semiconductors. We focus in particular on reviewing theories of their anomalous magnetic properties, which emerge from the interplay of spin and charge correlations and disorder.Building on the review of these existing theories and experiments, we suggest that the finite temperature phase diagram can be structured into 1. a random quantum spin liquid phase at subcritical doping and low temperature, as described by the Bhatt-Lee theory of random spin clusters, mostly random singlets. 2. a critical non-Fermi-liquid fan, originating at the MIT, which is dominated by random Kondo singlets with a universal tail of the distribution of their binding energies. This is caused by multifractality and results in an anomalous power law divergence of the magnetic susceptibility with a universal power and 3. a supercritical, low temperature phase. Rare events caused by the random placement of dopants do not allow to define strict phase boundaries. Remaining open problems are reveiwed and outlined. Finally, the possibility of finite temperature delocalization transitions is reviewed, which arcaused by the correlation induced temperature dependence of the spin scattering rate from magnetic moments. This review article is devoted to the memory of Konstantin B. Efetov.
