description: Background: Positive affect induced by exercise is gaining interest to promote one’s level of physical activity. However, factors concerning light-intensity exercises, along with their influence on affective response, remain unclear. Purpose: To study the post-exercise influence of the differences in ankle movement during light foot exercises on affective response. Methods: The study included 58 participants (30 males; mean age 72±3.6). Each participant sat and placed his/her right foot on an air bag, and passively dorsiflexed the ankle joint through the expansion of the air bag; they then released air from the bag by vent valves via active plantar-flexion in the form of a light foot exercise. The duration of the active plantar-flexion (active plantar flexing until/before the sole fully touched the ground), the knee-joint angle, and the resistance of air release were prepared as parameters. Affective response after the exercise was measured with the Feeling Scale (FS) and the 8-item Physical Activity Enjoyment Scale (PACES-8). A series of mixed ANOVAs were conducted after performing an aligned ranking transformation on the data. Results: Engaging in the plantar flexion motion until the sole fully touched the ground increased the scores on FS (p < 0.001, η2 = 0.03) and PACES-8 (p < 0.001, η2 = 0.05). Other parameters showed no significant effects on either FS or PACES-8. Conclusion: Ankle movement can potentially influence affective response concerning light foot exercises.

description: Entropy bounds render quantum corrections to the cosmological constant $Λ$ finite. Under certain assumptions, the natural value of $Λ$ is of order the observed dark energy density $\sim 10^{-10} {\rm eV}^4$, thereby resolving the cosmological constant problem. We note that the dark energy equation of state in these scenarios is $w \equiv p / ρ= 0$ over cosmological distances, and is strongly disfavored by observational data. Alternatively, $Λ$ in these scenarios might account for the diffuse dark matter component of the cosmological energy density.

description: Background: Physical activity and sport participation are essential to improving and maintaining the health and wellbeing of inactive individuals and communities within society, particularly minority groups who are the most critically inactive. However, embedded evaluations to appraise the impact of physical activity interventions are scarce. Sport Australia’s $150mill “Move It AUS Program” funded initiatives specifically catered to overcoming barriers to participation for physically inactive people. The evaluation aimed to objectively determine what worked, and what didn’t, in tackling physical inactivity through the “Move It AUS” funded sport programs in Australia. Methods: The evaluation adopted a pragmatic, mixed method approach involving standardised pre and post quantitative surveys for program participants (n=3,837), and thematically analysed qualitative interviews with program staff. Results: The program successfully reached priority target groups, with 75% of participants physically inactive and significant representation of Indigenous communities (5%), culturally and linguistically diverse groups (11%), and rural and remote locations (32%). 38% of respondents lived in most disadvantaged communities. Participation in Move it AUS program increased the proportion of participants meeting PA guidelines for their age from 25% to 27%. Findings from 26 qualitative interviews were synthesised into seven key insights, namely; 1) Clarity of ‘who’ you’re targeting; 2) Partnerships for knowledge or resources; 3) Modifying internal and external communication from “performance” to “participation”; 4) Flexible program design; 5) Impact of COVID-19 modifications on reach and retention; 6) How federal governing body support provides legitimacy to participation strategies; 7) Understanding that physical inactivity is a priority across the sport ecosystem. Conclusions: Creating physical activity and sport interventions specifically targeting physically inactive communities is a key priority to Australian government. These data were the first to understanding what worked and what needs improvement within Australian sport sector to improve reach, engagement, and effectiveness of programs. These novel findings contribute to a fundamental base of knowledge supporting approaches to enable more people to achieve physical activity through targeted sport and physical activity interventions.

title: Detection and Characterisation of Picobirnaviruses in Human and Rabbit Faeces
Creators: name: Gallimore, Christopher Ian
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1995

description: Human faecal samples were screened by nucleic acid extraction and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) for the presence of novel dsRNA viruses. A genome typical of a bisegmented dsRNA virus termed picobirnavirus (PBV) was detected in 5 to 15% of about one thousand human faecal samples. The PBV genome consists of two equimolar segments of dsRNA of approximately 2.45 and 1.75 Kilo base pairs (Kbp) in size. During studies attempting to pass a human PBV (HPBV) strain into rabbits, a coincidental rabbit PBV (RPBV) strain was detected, and subsequently three further unique rabbit strains were detected in newly weaned rabbits. An atypical PBV (APBV) associated with Cryptosporidium positive human faecal samples was detected in 20/54 (37%) of samples. The genome of the APBV was 1.75 and 1.55 Kbp. in size and all strains detected were virtually identical.

 Direct electron microscopy was performed on human faecal samples and small round featureless PBV-like particles with a diameter of 35-40nm were seen. Rabbit PBV-like particles were also detected in PAGE positive CsCl gradient fractions and peaked at a buoyant density of 1.395 g/ml was obtained.

 An immune response temporally associated with virus excretion was demonstrated in one rabbit by immune electron microscopy. Two antigenically and genomically different strains were shown to be circulating in rabbits.

 Epidemiological studies to determine the prevalence of PBV in several groups of patient samples including; gastroenteritis outbreaks occurring between 1982-93, hospitalised patients, HIV-infected patients and sporadic cases of gastroenteritis, showed that PBV are widely distributed, but no association with disease was demonstrated.

Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Some of the consequences for inflationary cosmology of a scale dependence (running) in the tilt of the scalar perturbation spectrum are considered. In the limit where the running is itself approximately scale-invariant, a relationship is found between the scalar and tensor perturbation amplitudes, the scalar spectral index and its running. This relationship is independent of the functional form of the inflaton potential. More general settings, including that of braneworld cosmological models, are also considered. It is found that for the Randall-Sundrum single braneworld scenario, the corresponding relation between the observables takes precisely the same form as that arising in the standard cosmology. Some implications of the observations failing to satisfy such a relationship are discussed.

description: Background: Lifestyle behaviors such as physical activity, sedentary behavior and sleep may be affected by fasting during Ramadan due to numerous factors such as long fasting hours in summer season, cultural shifts in daily activity such as shorter working hours, or shopping in non-fasting hours. Purpose: To assess changes in lifestyle behaviors profile among Muslim adults during Ramadan compared with non-fasting months. Method: A three visits quasi-experimental study conducted among Muslim adults aged 18 years or older. Visits took place as follows: first visit (V1), before Ramadan; second visit (V2), during Ramadan; third visit (V3), after Ramadan. Anthropometrics and vital signs were measured during each visit. Physical activity, sedentary behaviors and sleep were evaluated subjectively using Global Physical Activity Questionnaire and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) respectively, and objectively via ActivPAL (stepping time, standing time, sitting time, sleep time). Data were analyzed using repeated one-way ANOVA or Friedman test. Result: 21 participants (age= 30.6 ± 9.4 years, sex= 15 females /6 males, BMI= 25.8 ± 7.1) were included in the final analysis. Sleep time was different between visits (F=6.8; p=0.004) with mean time spent sleeping 464.5 ± 64.1, 412.8 ± 113, and 474.5 ± 119 minutes in V1, V2 and V3, respectively. Other variables did not reach statistical significance. Conclusion: Ramadan fasting had a significant effect on sleep behavior. Future studies might want to evaluate the effect of promoting healthy sleep during Ramadan on overall lifestyle behaviors profile. Funding: Not funded.

description: Bearing holographic dark energy hypothesis in mind, the ability of vacuum energy in describing the current accelerated universe is studied in the framework of Rastall theory. Here, in addition to the ordinary approach in which it is expected that this energy plays the role of dark energy, we also address a new approach where the sum of this energy and Rastall term is responsible for the current accelerated universe. We also investigate the cosmological outcomes of using Tsallis entropy in quantifying the energy of fields in vacuum for both mentioned approaches. The implications of considering an interaction between the various segments of cosmic fluid have been addressed in each studied cases. The normalized Hubble parameter for the models have also been plotted and compared that with the H(z) data consisting of 41 data points in the redshift range of 0.07< z<2.36.

Habitualizing resistance exercises in Seniors in Singapore – As easy as a walk in the park

Publisher: name: The Health & Fitness Journal of Canada
Year: 2022

description: In Singapore, about one in five would be 65 years or older by 2030. While recent trends in 2018 showed an encouraging and upward trend with 74% of seniors participating in physical activity at least once a week, most of which are largely confined to walking. It is well-established that aging, even in the absence of chronic disease, is associated with a variety of biological changes that contributes to increased risks of sarcopenia, warranting the need to emphasize resistance exercises. It is apparent that the “traditional” delivery of resistance exercises through structured training often entails low long-term adherence especially in older individuals. It is, therefore, critical to re-think active ageing beyond COVID especially on ways to incorporate resistance exercises without having to visit the gym or rely on physical group-based activities to ensure the safety and health of seniors amidst this global pandemic. This study aims to leveraging on the power of habit to assimilate resistance exercises into existing walking routines. 80 seniors aged 60 and above participated in this study where they were introduced to 8 different resistance exercises along with the habit loop concept (Cue, routine, reward). Tapping on their existing cues that primed the walking behaviours, we present a case example of a Discovery Walk in the Park where participants are exposed to key elements in the park where they can incorporate resistance exercises. Our goal is to empower seniors and bring resistance exercises “closer” to the citizens so they can enjoy active living in their neighbourhoods and live life to the fullest. This is the first of such a programme in Singapore and in this presentation, we share useful insights on habitualizing resistance exercises in a sustainable manner amidst the challenges of an ageing population globally, opening new doors of opportunities for the promotion of active ageing in Singapore.

description: We investigate the possibility of $D$-term inflation within the framework of type I string-inspired models. Although $D$-term inflation model has the excellent property that it is free from the so-called $η$- problem, two serious problems appear when we embed $D$-term inflation in string theory, the magnitude of FI term and the rolling motion of the dilation. In the present paper, we analyze the potential of $D$-term inflation in type I inspired models and study the behavior of dilaton and twisted moduli fields. Adopting the non-perturbative superpotential induced by gaugino condensation, the twisted moduli can be stabilized. If the dilaton is in a certain range, it evolves very slowly and does not run away to infinity. Thus $D$-term dominated vacuum energy becomes available for driving inflation. By studying the density perturbation generated by the inflation model, we derive the constraints on model parameters and give some implications on $D$-term inflation in type I inspired models.

Year: 2022

description: Purpose: To study the relationship between different types of physical activities (orienteering, mountain cross-country and sedentary) and visual working memory, so as to provide reference for people who want to improve VWM. Methods: The forty-eight subjects comprise of orienteering expert (OP), mountain cross-country expert (MP) and sedentary group (SG), with 16 each, and both genders are in equal numbers, with an average age of 20.56 ±1.25. The VWM index includes the capacity and accuracy of memory. According to the delayed matching-to-sample (DMS), the experimental program was compiled. The potential activities during the keystroke reaction experiment were recorded by ERP, and the correct rate and reaction time were analyzed by SPSS24.0. Results: Behavioral results: the accuracy of OP and MP were both higher than that of SG, even the accuracy of OP significantly higher than that of MP. The reaction time of OP and MP were both remarkably higher than that of SG, but there was no considerable difference between OP and MP. ERP results: During the delayed phase of the experiment, the activation of the left central region of OP was significant, while the other regions were significantly suppressed; the activation of the right frontal of MP was remarkable, while the other regions were significantly inhibited; there are significant activation in several brain regions of SG, including the right prefrontal, the right frontal, the left temporal and so on. In the probe phase of the experiment, the left occipital, the left parietal and other vision-related brain regions of OP were significantly activated, while other unrelated brain regions were significantly suppressed; EEG of MP showed activation in all brain regions except the right frontal, in which the occipital and temporal showed the most significant activation; most of the brain regions of SG showed abnormal activity, except the central frontal. Conclusions: Compared with sedentary, physical activity can improve the capacity of VWM. However, in almost all types of physical activity, orienteering, which exerts load on visual cognition, can improve the capacity and accuracy of VWM to a large extent.

description: We study the origin of the Born probability rule rho = |psi|^2 in the de Broglie-Bohm pilot-wave formulation of quantum theory. It is argued that quantum probabilities arise dynamically, and have a status similar to thermal probabilities in ordinary statistical mechanics. This is illustrated by numerical simulations for a two-dimensional system. We show that a simple initial ensemble with a non-standard distribution rho not= |psi|^2 of particle positions evolves towards the quantum distribution to high accuracy. The relaxation process rho --> |psi|^2 is quantified in terms of a coarse-grained H-function (equal to minus the relative entropy of rho with respect to |psi|^2), which is found to decrease approximately exponentially over time, with a time constant that accords with a simple theoretical estimate.

description: For many people there is tradeoff between choosing a job that they will enjoy and one at which they are good and will earn a high income. We embed this observation in a matching model. Consider then men and women who are a priori identical in the sense that both are equally likely to be good at one of two jobs and their satisfaction from each job is drawn from the same distribution. They are randomly matched into households after making a career choice, and have decreasing marginal utility of money. Thus, a career is chosen before knowing one's future spouse's income. If the distribution of enjoyment is log concave and single peaked, with the modal individual enjoying the job at which they are good, then there is either a unique symmetric equilibrium that is stable or an unstable symmetric equilibrium and two (mirror image) asymmetric equilibria that are stable. The latter display a wage gap and an opposite satisfaction gap, with one gender, wlog men, earning more even controlling for occupation. These equilibria display novel comparative statics. For example a tax on high wage couples results in women shifting into their more satisfying jobs and forgoing income (as one would expect), while interestingly men shift into higher income jobs, forgoing job satisfaction.

description: In this paper we employ a tax-competition model to demonstrate that in the presence of migration the re-distributive advantage of a non-linear income tax system over a linear (flat) one is significantly mitigated relative to the autarky (no-migration) equilibrium. When migration threats are sufficiently strong, a coordinated shift from a non-linear (prima-facie superior) system to a flat (inferior) regime is not too welfarecostly, even when the extent of re-distribution is significant. Therefore, such a shift may be warranted on administrative grounds. We also show, as expected, that migration reduces the extent of redistribution.

description: High-resolution X-ray spectra of SS 433 obtained after a binary egress with the Chandra High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (HETGS) were studied. Many Doppler-shifted X-ray emission lines from highly ionized elements were detected. The initial temperature of the jets is estimated to be 20 keV. The lines are found to generally be broader than the instrumented resolution. The widths of the Fe XXV K-alpha and Si XIII K-alpha lines correspond to velocity dispersions of 2100 (+600/-340) km/s and 840 (+180/-150) km/s respectively, in terms of Gaussian sigma. Neither the measured line widths nor their dependence on the atomic number can be explained by thermal broadening alone. Alternative explanations of the observed line widths are discussed, including in particular a progressive jet collimation along its axis.

description: Background: Running boom in the early 2000s campaigned by Thai Health Promotion Foundation (Thai Health) and Thai Jogging Federation Foundation (TJF) emerged as Physical Activity promotion for NCDs prevention in Thailand. Program Delivery: Health promotion campaigns by running program aimed to: 1) encourage new runners to shift their unhealthy behaviors such as smoking, unhealthy diet, and lack of physical activity; and 2) to promote healthy lifestyle by knowledge distribution, social bridging, and policy drive. The campaigns were channeled via diverse routes i.e. challenges, film, charity, social media and role models. Evaluation: The two-decade-review collected data from documentary research, in-depth-interview and focus group discussion. The sources were from Thai Health and Ministry of Public Health. The ongoing TJF’s campaign has increased the number of Thais running from 5 million in 2007 to 10 million in 2017. The proportion of Thais who engaged in walking/running as their regular physical activity rose from 15.4 percent in 2014 to 18.2 percent in 2016 and is likely to increase steadily to 23.1 percent and 24.4 percent in 2017 and 2018 respectively. The health promotion campaigns also have helped to prevent 400,236 NCDs cases among Thai population by averting 222,441 cases of diabetes, 79,748 cases of ischemic heart disease, 78,246 cases of stroke and 19,802 cases of colorectal cancer. Conclusions: The impact of empowered running as health promotion campaigns was not only the increase of the number of people participated in running events or engaged in regular physical activity, but also in reducing NCDs risks.

description: We demonstrate how to make rigorous predictions for electroweak matrix elements in nuclear systems directly from QCD. More precisely, we show how to determine the short-distance contributions to low-momentum transfer electroweak matrix elements in the two-nucleon sector from lattice QCD. In potential model descriptions of multi-nucleon systems, this is equivalent to uniquely determining the meson-exchange currents, while in the context of nuclear effective field theory, this translates into determining the coefficients of local, gauge-invariant, multi-nucleon-electroweak current operators. The energies of the lowest-lying states of two nucleons on a finite volume lattice with periodic boundary conditions in the presence of a background magnetic field are sufficient to determine the local four-nucleon operators that contribute to the deuteron magnetic moment and to the threshold cross-section of n + p -> d + gamma. Similarly, the energy-levels of two nucleons immersed in a background isovector axial weak field can be used to determine the coefficient of the leading local four-nucleon operator contributing to the neutral- and charged-current break-up of the deuteron. This is required for the extraction of solar neutrino fluxes at SNO and future neutrino experiments.

description: Background: Although physical activity has many health benefits, adverse events and near-misses, such as injuries and falls, can occur during physical activity. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the occurrence of adverse events and near-misses during sports activities conducted independently by community residents. Methods: This questionnaire survey was sent via the internet to the leader or director of sports at six public sports centers or associations to be disseminated to local residents. In total, 108 individuals responded answered. In total, there were 60% and 40% male and female respondents. Individuals aged 50–69 years accounted for 60% of the total respondents. The respondents were asked about their experiences of adverse events and near-misses in the past 3 years. Results: Most of the respondents' activities as staff were performed once a month, with each activity lasting 1–2 hours. Forty-five adverse events were reported, including 26 injuries, 13 falls, and 6 other events (such as heat stroke, vertigo, and presyncope). Twenty-four near-misses were reported, including 12 near-collisions with people or objects, 5 near-falls, and 7 other incidents. Conclusions: We found that adverse events or near-misses occurred during sports activities conducted independently by community residents. Funding: This study was commissioned by the Sakae Ward Safe Community Promotion Council Sports Safety Measures Subcommittee, “Project to Promote Measures to Prevent Injuries and Accidents During Exercise."

description: the European SeeRRI project seeks to promote the integration of RRI (Responsible Research and Innovation) into Research and Innovation Strategies for Smart Specialisation (henceforth, RIS3) to build RRI ecosystems, which are research and innovation ecosystems that are committed to society and to the transition towards more sustainable and inclusive development. As part of the SeeRRI project, Government of Catalonia and the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) have worked with regional stakeholders to co-design a pilot project which has been carried out around the region known as B30, which includes 23 municipalities located in the metropolitanean area of Barcelona. This pilot project implemented in 2019 and 2020 has attempted to answer two questions:
 • How can RIS3 promote RRI as a way to better address the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and promote pathways for a more sustainable, inclusive and fair development?
 • How can the UAB contribute to a research and innovation ecosystem more responsible and sustainable, which addresses the SDGs and promotes pathways for a more sustainable, inclusive and fair development?

description: Background: Brief advice as a part of routine care intervention for physical activity promotion have been implemented in Thailand, however, information on its cost-effectiveness is lacking. Purpose: This study aims to estimate the cost-effectiveness of brief advice implementation from the perspective of health outcomes in Thailand during 2021–2040. Methods: This study collected data on the costing, quantity assumption and unit price of implementing brief advice as part of routine care intervention on physical activity promotion in Thailand. In the data analysis process, OneHealth Tool program was used. Results: The findings of the study found that physical activity promotion with brief advice as part of routine care reduced the mortality of Thai population. Conclusions: The results informed that the promoting physical activity through brief advice as part of routine care intervention have contributed to mortality reduction from stroke (post-acute), ischemic heart disease (post-acute), diabetes, and colorectal cancer. Funding: This research was funded by Thai Health Promotion Foundation.

subject: productivity shocks

description: We study a one sector stochastic growth model with independent and identically dis- tributed shocks where agents acquire information that enables them to accurately predict next period's productivity shock (but not shocks in later periods). Optimal policy de- pends on the forthcoming shock. We derive conditions under which a more productive realization of the forthcoming shock increases or decreases current investment; relative risk aversion and the elasticity of marginal product play important roles in these condi- tions. A better shock always increases next period's optimal output if it increases both marginal and total product. We derive explicit solutions to the optimal policy function for three well known families of production and utility functions. Volatility of output, sensitivity of output to shocks and expected total investment may be higher or lower than in the standard stochastic growth model where no new information is acquired over time. Under restrictions similar to that used in the standard model, optimal outputs converge in distribution to a unique invariant distribution whose support is bounded away from zero; the limiting distribution may differ from that obtained in the standard model.

description: Background: The Physical Activity (PA) policy of Fujisawa city was formulated as part of the Fujisawa Health Promotion Plan (2nd stage, 2015–2024), which is based on Japan’s national 10-year health promotion plan (2013–2022). In 2018, the World Health Organization launched the Global Action Plan on Physical Activity 2018–2030 (GAPPA), which provides guidance through a framework of effective and feasible policy actions for increasing PA using the systems approach. Purpose: We examined if the PA policy was well applicable to the GAPPA framework and if there were any missing elements so that the policy could be improved upon. Method: The PA policy was categorized to comply with 20 policy actions under GAPPA. The public health nurses at the health promotion section of the city and university researchers discussed and applied these to the GAPPA framework. Results: The 76 PA projects in 2020 were categorized into three themes and six sub-themes. Fujisawa +10 project, a community-wide intervention using social marketing (Saito et al.,2018), fit particularly well into GAPPA 1-1. We found that each of the GAPPA areas could be fulfilled by including non-PA measures, in the environmental, transportation, and city planning sections of the city. Discussion: It is necessary to share the co-benefits with the above sections not included in the PA policy, monitor common indicators, and evaluate the progress and results to help meet the country’s sustainable development goals (SDGs) because, according to WHO, PA policy action contributes to 13 of the 17 SDGs.

description: Measuring the polarisation of a single photon typically results in its destruction. We propose, demonstrate, and completely characterise a \emph{quantum non-demolition} (QND) scheme for realising such a measurement non-destructively. This scheme uses only linear optics and photo-detection of ancillary modes to induce a strong non-linearity at the single photon level, non-deterministically. We vary this QND measurement continuously into the weak regime, and use it to perform a non-destructive test of complementarity in quantum mechanics. Our scheme realises the most advanced general measurement of a qubit: it is non-destructive, can be made in any basis, and with arbitrary strength.

description: Background: Muscle-strengthening exercise (MSE) has multiple health benefits. However, with epidemiological research largely focusing on participation frequency (times/week), little is known about the associations between other participation parameters (i.e. duration/volume) with health conditions. Purpose: To examine the association between weekly duration and volume of MSE with chronic health conditions in a representative sample of UK adults. Methods: Cross-sectional data from 16,301 UK adults aged ≥16 years, from the Health Survey for England (2012, 2016). Self-reported MSE mode (own bodyweight, gym-based strength exercise) duration and volume, was assessed against five self-reported chronic conditions (diabetes; anxiety/depression; heart, respiratory and musculoskeletal conditions). Poisson regression with robust error variance were used to calculate the prevalence ratios of each chronic condition (outcome variable) across MSE (exposure variables: duration (minutes: 0 [reference]; 10-20; 21-59; ≥60/session); and volume (0 [reference]; low

When Stolper-Samuelson Does Not Apply: International Trade and Female Labor

description: Whenever a country specializes on industries that use female labor intensively, its female labor force participation should increase. This intuition, which bases on the Stolper-Samuleson Theorem, may fail in a three-factor, two-good model. We develop a model where capital, male and female work are distinct factors of production. We follow an established assumption and postulate that capital accumulation closes the gender wage gap. In this setup, the Stolper-Samuleson based intuition fails necessarily: the gender wage gap widens in countries that specialize on sectors intensive in female labor, and vice versa.
