Malkinia gurupi Piza, 1979
Malkinia Piza, 1979 syn. nov. of Microcentrum Scudder, 1862
The description does not compare Malkinia to any other genus, but mentions that it is distinguished from other genera by the ventrally rounded fore and middle femora as well as the presence of styli. Apart from the slightly more transparent tegmina, Piza’s two male specimens look like typical members of the large genus Microcentrum. And for example M. lanceolatum and M. marginatum do have styli, even longer ones than M. gurupi.

description: Objectives: The aims of the present study were to investigate the effects of concurrent endurance and resistance training upon the healing of cardiac patients following surgery as seen in plasma CK-MB, IL-6 and IL-10 concentrations. Methods: The experimental subjects were 63 males who had undergone a coronary bypass, balloon angioplasty or valve replacement. Control subjects were 35 men who had received a similar range of treatments, but were unwilling to enter the rehabilitation program. Results: Baseline anthropometric data, ventricular dimensions, ejection fraction and treadmill testing showed good initial matching of clinical status. The experimental group performed a one-hour exercise program 3 times per week for 8 weeks. After training, anthropometric measurements showed a decrease of body fat, and peak aerobic power and 6-minute walking distance showed expected gains.  The rehabilitation program led to substantial decreases in CK-MB, IL-6, and IL-10 in the experimental group. The decreases of IL-6 and IL-10 seen in experimental subjects appear to be independent of body fat loss and cardiac healing. Conclusions: A combined endurance-resistance training program not only improves physical condition following cardiac revascularization, but also speeds tissue healing relative to individuals of similar initial condition who have declined the option of exercise rehabilitation.

On the Relation of Architectural to Test Smells: A Preliminary Investigation

Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: 80309 Software Engineering
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Software maintenance is the software life cycle's longest and most challenging phase. Bad architectural decisions or sub-optimal solutions might lead to architectural erosion, i.e., the process that causes the system's architecture to deviate from its original design completely. The so-called architectural smells are the most common signs of architectural erosion. Architectural smells might affect several quality aspects of a software system, including testability. When a system is not prone to testing, sub-optimal solutions may be introduced in the test code, a.k.a. test smells. This paper explores the possible relations between architectural and test smells. By mining 798 releases of 40 open-source Java systems, we studied the correlation between class-level architectural smells and test smells. In particular, Eager Test and Assertion Roulette smells often occur in conjunction with Cyclically-dependent Modularization, Deficient Encapsulation, and Insufficient Encapsulation architectural smells.

description: Objectives: The purpose was to establish uniaxial and triaxial accelerometer cut-points denoting moderate and vigorous intensity physical activity (PA) among coronary artery disease patients based on relative exercise intensity. Methods: Eighteen coronary artery disease patients (Age: 58 ± 11 yr) wore an ActiGraph GT3X accelerometer during a cardiac stress test.  Exercise intensity was measured at each stage. Receiver operator characteristic curve analyses were used to establish cut-points. Results: Uniaxial count ranges of 750-2299 and ≥2300 counts∙min-1 were found to best identify moderate and vigorous intensity PA, respectively. Triaxial count ranges of 1800-3799 and ≥3800 counts∙min-1 were found to best identify moderate and vigorous intensity PA, respectively. Cut-points were found to be lower than those for both middle-aged and older adults. Conclusion: Cut-points specific to coronary artery disease patients should be used rather than generic points established for healthy middle-aged and older adults.

Regulating exercise intensity when heart-rate based prescription is compromised
Creators: name: Shephard, Roy J.
Publisher: name: The Health & Fitness Journal of Canada
Year: 2016

description: Background: Clinical conditions such as beta-blockade, cardiac conduction defects, use of a cardiac pacemaker, and cardiac transplantation preclude use of heart rate to regulate the intensity of prescribed exercise.

Purpose: To evaluate the suggestion that Borg's RPE may provide a valid alternative, and to weigh possible alternatives.

Methods: A brief review of factors modifying RPE, and an analysis of RPE data obtained in patients following cardiac transplantation.

Results: Many factors modify an individual's perceptions of effort, and in consequence simply exercising to a fixed RPE can result in either too low an intensity to induce the required training, or a dangerously high intensity of exercise.
Conclusions: RPE does not provide a safe method of regulating exercise after cardiac transplantation. A better alternative is to establish the individual's oxygen cost of walking, and to prescribe a set walking distance to be covered in a set time, reserving the RPE for a fine-tuning of this prescription

description: Objectives: The primary objective of this paper is to discuss the Indigenous Long-Term Athlete and Participant Development model (LTAPD) the implications for sport and lifelong active living. Discussion: The Indigenous LTAPD was created by the Aboriginal Physical Activity & Cultural Circle building upon Canada’s general LTAPD. The Indigenous LTAPD includes nine stages for the development of physical activity for life. This model is designed to reflect the shared values of Indigenous peoples providing a positive environment for ALL (regardless of ability or sex). Conclusions: The Indigenous LTAPD model has great potential incorporating the traditional values and ways of Aboriginal peoples so that ALL can achieve the benefits of sport, recreation, and physical activity participation.

description: Ce mémoire fait ressortir les thèmes et les faits démontrant que la femme au sein de la société décrite dans l’oeuvre La muette de l’écrivaine franco-iranienne, Chahdortt Djavann, est marginali-sée. Elle subit la violence à la fois physique et psychologique. Non seulement elle est marginalisée et reléguée au second plan dans la société, mais elle est aussi privée de ses droits les plus fonda-mentaux comme le droit à l’éducation, le droit à la liberté d’expression, le droit au style vestimen-taire, etc. Cette marginalisation ne concerne pas que la femme adulte mais aussi, et plus encore, la jeune fille. En effet, en plus de subir les mêmes difficultés, les jeunes filles sont victimes de ma-riages forcés, de violences et d’abus sexuels, de grossesses non désirées, et ce malgré leur jeune âge. Les causes de cette marginalisation et son impact sont également analysés au travers des per-sonnages de l’oeuvre.
The endurance athlete's "stitch": Etiology and management of exercise-related transient abdominal pain
Creators: name: Shephard, Roy J.
Publisher: name: The Health & Fitness Journal of Canada
Year: 2016

description: Background: The endurance athlete's "stitch," or exercise-related transient abdominal pain (ETAP), all too commonly limits the performance of endurance athletes, but its origin, management and possible methods of prevention remain unclear. Methods: Published research was reviewed systematically from January 1996 through May 2015.The terms "Athletic Stitch," "Pain in the side" OR "Abdominal pain" were paired with "Exercise/Exercise therapy," "Physical education/Training," OR Fitness/Physical fitness" to identify a total of 66 papers. 35 of these articles relevant to review objectives were supplemented by an additional 50 citations drawn from reference lists and personal files. Results: About a fifth of participants in aerobic endurance events are affected by ETAP on any one occasion, and perhaps two thirds of competitors experience ETAP at least once during a year. The risk seems greater in younger, less experienced and female athletes. Postulated causes that include visceral ischaemia, visceral vibration, ischaemia and/or spasm of the respiratory muscles, postural disorders, peritoneal irritation, and psychological factors.Treatment currently remains empirical. Optimizing physical condition, strengthening abdominal and spinal muscles, and avoiding food and hypertonic fluids immediately before an event appear to reduce the risks of ETAP. A slowing of pace, bending, local pressure and an abdominal binder may give immediate relief; the merits of spinal manipulation have yet to be confirmed
Conclusions: Empirical remedies as yet have limited efficacy, and it remains necessary to develop a clear unifying hypothesis of etiology before evidence-based recommendations for the prevention and treatment of ETAP. Although ETAP may impair performance, it does not have any serious sequelae; the important objective for the practitioner is to distinguish it from other more dangerous causes of abdominal pain.

Piza compared his new genus to Symmachis Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878, a genus with three species from Australia. However, the female holotype of Linkia linki from southern Brazil presents characters that are diagnostic for the genus Microcentrum. This makes Linkia, a preoccupied name, along with the curious substitute name Carnavalia (with reference to the famous carnival of M. linki ’s home country), synonyms of Microcentrum.

ECG screening to prevent sudden cardiac death on the sports field: Is there now evidence supporting such practice?
Creators: name: Shephard, Roy J.
Publisher: name: The Health & Fitness Journal of Canada
Year: 2016

description: Objective. Occasional incidents of sudden death on the sports field have provoked conflicting views on risk reduction through pre-participation screening. Some sports physicians call simply for a thorough clinical examination, but others insist that this must be coupled with a resting ECG examination. Debate has been particularly vigorous in the past ten years; the present article briefly recapitulates earlier arguments and seeks an appropriate, evidence-based current recommendation.

Methods. Ovid/Medline, PubMed, Google Scholar and personal files were searched for articles related to ECG screening and sudden, exercise-related cardiac death, with particular reference to publications appearing in the past 10 years.

Results. The introduction of mandatory ECG screening in Italy in 1982 was justified after the fact by a drop in sudden deaths from an unusually high level in the year before the law was enacted to a level typical of North American during the subsequent decade. The criteria used in screening were not athlete-specific, and false positives excluded many potential competitors from play. Moreover, compulsory screening that began in Israel in 1979 had no effect upon the incidence of sudden death. Attempts to develop athlete-specific ECG norms have developed at least 4 options, all rated against clinical judgments rather than their success in identifying those later succumbing to sudden, exercise-related death. The low incidence of such events militates against the setting of criteria that will not have an excessive false positive rate; indeed, some recent authors query whether sudden death is indeed more common in athletes than in the sedentary population.

Conclusions. Randomized trials examining the consequences of ECG screening and subsequent restriction of physical activity are needed, and the merits of this approach must be compared with a stronger emphasis upon secondary prevention and emergency preparedness. But at present ECG screening still lacks the sensitivity and specifity to be an effective tool in reducing the risk of SERCD.

description: The policy brief Ocean Cities Network (OC-NET) contributes to effectively addressing the global plastic crisis towards the Global Treaty on Plastic from the coastal areas perspective as an initiative of the OC-NET policy working group.

The policy brief is contributing to effectively addressing the global plastic crisis towards the Global Plastics Treaty  from the coastal areas perspective as an initiative of the policy working group of the Ocean Cities Network (OC-NET).  OC-NET is a 10 years programme under the Ocean Decade connecting coastal areas’ stakeholders for a sustainable evidence-based governance for the ocean cities of the future. The programme englobes three working group areas:

●    HEALTH - Research in the coastal systems under the global health approach.

●     CULTURE - Marine culture and territory, enhancing ocean literacy and TEK.

●  POLICY - Social justice for the ecological transition, promoting a fair and inclusive transition by means of science-based policy.

The poster started from a previous document, the “Ocean Cities towards the Global Treaty on Plastic Manifesto” discussed in Sevilla (Spain), 2022 during the Marlice Forum. This contribution aims to bring to the community of the Ocean Decade a proposal of recommendations related with the Global Treaty on Plastic discussed in 3 Intergovernmental Negotiating Committees (INC) to reach a consensual agreement by the end of 2024. The poster opens up the discussion about the role of science and the coastal community concerning solutions for the legally binding instrument that will be shaped. During the Marlice Forum 2022[1], a session about the “Ocean Cities towards the Global Treaty on Plastic Manifesto'' was proposed. Following up with the manifesto, the present contribution would like to continue a dialogue on knowledge about requirements for the urban coastal cities and the scientific community by means of this policy brief, which will open discussion in several fora at a local level as well as at the next 2025 UN Ocean Conference in France.

description: Purpose: Aims of our study were to characterize both heart rate and hormonal responses elicited by three different fitness disciplines: outdoor walking training, Zumba®, and walking training on magnetic treadmill. Methods: Fifteen healthy trained women (42 ± 7 yr) performed three different workouts conducted by the same instructor. Salivary samples were collected before and after each workout, at 11 p.m. and at 7 a.m. of the following day, while a beat-to-beat heart rate recording was executed during each workout. Saliva was also collected during a non-training day. Cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) were measured in salivary samples. Results: Workouts have been shown able to affect physiological trend of LogCortisol according to intensity: as highest was workout intensity as highest was LogCortisol at 11 p.m.  The same has been shown for LogDHEA-S except for outdoor walking training that has not been able to affect salivary LogDHEA-S. Time elapsed at both 60-69% maximal heart rate (HRmax; r=0.301, p=0.05) and 80-89% HRmax (r=-0.328, p=0.003) have been shown correlated with LogCortisol to LogDHEA-S ratio. Conclusions: The knowledge of acute and delayed hormonal effects of fitness disciplines is very important to optimize health promotion and maintenance of midlife trained women, near to menopausal transition.

description: Polyurena Piza, 1967 (status uncertain)
Monotypic type species: Polyurena hexacercata Piza, 1967
Piza compared the new genus Polyurena to Homotoicha, from which his male specimen differs by the longer lateral lobes of the pronotum. It also has a very narrow, elongate and deeply incised subgenital plate, which is typical for the genus Theudoria, and we considered to move P. hexacercata under that genus. However, the three species Brunner von Wattenwyl (1879, 1891) included have much shorter tegmina. In addition P. hexacercata lacks the abnormal coloration of tegmina and hind femora he mentioned in his German comment below the genus diagnos. There are similar species in Euceraia, but the lateral lobes of their pronota are shorter.
The situation appears a little confusing and we did not come to a conclusive decision. We move two additional species of Piza himself, originally described as Theudora and Homotoicha, under his own genus, as a preliminary step to clear things up. Whether Polyurena can be considered a valid genus, depends on further examination and comparison with the following two species: Homotoicha fuscopunctata Caudell, 1906, and Homotoicha laminata Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1891, which are very similar and possibly conspecific with one or two of the “ Polyurena ” species.
And Ctenophorema balneare Piza, 1967, another lone representant of a monospecific genus, and in the original description compared to Polyurena, seems to differ only in cercus morphology.

Year: 2016

description: Background: Obesity continues to be a public health concern given its association multiple comorbidities spanning both physical and mental health. Researchers have documented that both increased Body Mass Index (BMI) and centrally patterned obesity (i.e., waist circumference) are independently associated with health. As such, national health organizations (e.g., Health Canada) have identified an obesity health-risk classification system based on a combination of BMI and waist circumference scores.
Purpose: The objective of this non-experimental study was to examine differences in physical activity and sedentary behaviour in community-dwelling adults who differ in terms of their obesity related health risk classification.
Methods: Participants (N = 50; Mage = 38.50 years, SDage = 14.21 years) BMI and waist circumference scores were measured resulting in the following groups based on obesity-related risk classifications: (a) Least, (b) Increased, or (c) High. Following assessment of anthropometric variables, each participant was asked to wear a SenseWearTM Armband across a seven day monitoring period and scores recorded for active energy expenditure, step count and sedentary behaviour.
Results: A significant multivariate effect (Pillais = .40, F(6, 86) = 3.60, p = .003, ?p2 = .20, observed power = .94) was noted across risk classification groups. Differences were found in the amount of time spent in active energy expenditure for bouts of ten minutes or more (p = .002); specifically between those classified as Least versus High Risk (p < .05).
Conclusion: Participation in active energy expenditure in bouts greater than or equal to ten minutes should be promoted as a parameter for influencing obesity-related ill health in order to allow adults to reach optimal health benefits and reduce their risk.

description: Background:  Health consequences resulting from excess body fat have created a need to effectively monitor weight-control behaviours.  Digital technology manufactured to promote self-monitoring of weight-control behaviours is widely available, yet little is known about compliance issues associated with device use in commercial weight-loss program (CWLP) users.

Purpose:  The purpose of this study was to examine compliance issues towards using the Sensewear™ Armband (SWA™) and the CalorieSmart™ Handheld Calorie Counter (C-CS100s™).

Methods:  Participants (n = 15; 100% female) enrolled in CWLP were asked to use the SWA™ and C-CS100s™ for a monitoring period of 7 consecutive days.  Participants were instructed to record foods at designated meal times using the C-CS100s™ plus wear the SWA™ for all non-aquatic based activities undertaken during the monitoring period.

Results:  Breakfast (M = 5.67± 1.59), lunch (M = 6.13± 1.30), and dinner (M = 6.13± 1.36) entries implied high compliance rates for use of the C-CS100s™ yet intra-individual differences in the percentage of designated meals entries recorded varied considerably (M = 85.40% ±18.04%, Range = 28.57% to 100.00%).  Wear time for the SWA™ indicated device activation on the body between 8.28 to 23.40 hrs/day (MWear Time= 19.12 ±4.94 hrs/day).  Lower compliance rates for the SWA™ (M = 70.76% ±17.92%, Range = 29.59% to 85.73%) were evident compared with the C-CS100s™.

Conclusions:  Overall, the results of this study imply that compliance rates with device use recommendations for digital technology seem variable even over short epochs in CWLP users.

title: An Investigation into the Implementation of CYP-IAPT Routine Outcome Measures in their First Year of Integration into Child Psychotherapy Practice

description: This thesis examines the impact on child and adolescent
psychotherapists within CAMHS of the introduction of routine outcome
measures (ROMs) associated with the Children and Young People’s Improving
access to Psychological Therapies programme (CYP-IAPT). All CAMHS
therapists working within a particular NHS mental health Trust1 were required to
trial CYP-IAPT ROMs as part of their everyday clinical practice from October
2013-September 2014. During this period considerable freedom was allowed
as to which of the measures each therapist used and at what frequency.
In order to assess the impact of CYP-IAPT ROMs on child
psychotherapy, I conducted semi-structured interviews with eight
psychotherapists within a particular CAMHS partnership within one NHS Trust.
Each statement was coded and grouped according to whether it related to initial
(generic) assessment, goal setting / monitoring, monitoring on-going progress,
therapeutic alliance, or to issues concerning how data might be used or
interpreted by managers and commissioners.
Analysis of interviews revealed greatest concern about session-by
session ROMs, as these are felt to impact most significantly on psychotherapy;
therapists felt that session-by-session ROMs do not take account of negative
transference relationships, they are overly repetitive and used to reward /
punish the therapist. Measures used at assessment and review were viewed as
most compatible with psychotherapy, although often experienced as
excessively time consuming. The Goal Based Outcome Measure was generally
experienced as compatible with psychotherapy so long as goals are formed
collaboratively between therapist and young person. There was considerable
anxiety about how data may be (mis)used and (mis)interpreted by managers
and commissioners, for example to end treatment prematurely, trigger change
of therapist in the face of negative ROMs data, or to damage psychotherapy.
Use of ROMs for short term and generic work was experienced as less intrusive
and contentious.

description: This document charts my development as an artist over the last five years on the Professional Doctorate in Fine Art at the University of East London. It begins with a reflection on the work done on B.A and M.A. in Fine Art, at Middlesex University and the University of East London respectively. The origin of my work lies in traumatic and painful life experiences that at the time of their occurrence almost effectively ended my practice. In hindsight it is clear that these experiences have provided the continuing motivation for my research and art practice, as well as its content.
The report presents in chronological order of my engagement with theories of the mechanisms of societal power and control, and describes the assimilation of these ideas into my developing visual projects. The report begins with the autobiographical background to my practice, followed by the Creative Practice and Theory section which contextualizes the different strands of my research, and concludes with my Professional Practice which outlines the artistic activities I embarked on during the five years of the doctorate programme.
title: Staging the Moment: Play and Fictional Reality

description: While reflecting on the main topic of my interest, I realized that it is the moment of pure experience of the visible world before its transition into individual and subjectively perceived reality. Playing as a means of staying in that moment is a main strategy of my practice. As we can perceive very little of the true workings of the world by a momentary experience, the only impression we can gauge from it will add to the fictional nature of our understanding of it.  “’Reality’ is the word that belongs in quotation marks” (Nabokov, 1995). 
My goal was to trace this process from the very first moment of actual sensory experience, and the resonance it creates in the mind and body, to the second when it becomes a driving force of art production and manifests itself in the art form. It is a very slim sliver of time and space in which this transformation actually happens. The work I create aims to capture my own experience and create experiences for my audience. The means by which I create and convey this experience is play. The complexity of analyzing this triad – moment-play-fiction – through practice brought me to the necessity of analyzing my methods of production as well as the necessity of contextualizing my practice in a broader philosophical and critical discourse. Inspired by Mikhail Bahktin, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Martin Heidegger, I focus on art as act, in my case the act of playing, and play as a means of engaging with the momentary existence. Establishing the rules, and contextualizing my practice led me to experimentations with a variety of media, and studying the work of other artists. 
Yayoi Kusama, Elmgreen and Dragset, Marina Abramovic, Elizabeth Price, Bill Viola, Douglas Gordon, and Akira Kurosawa are but a few whose work and life inspired me in the last three years. Analyzing my own methods and staging the viewers’ experience, I find it is important to keep observing my own, as well as my viewers’ behavior. Exploratory travels and international art residencies provided just those necessary research opportunities. 
Just as, according to Umberto Eco, one should see the difference between story and discourse (Eco, 2004, p. 36), my aim is to understand the difference between the moment of experience (story) and the moment of perception (discourse).  The desire to further explore these topics in the future led me to enumerate and summarize all the thousands of the last three years’ moments that yielded the story entitled Staging the Moment: Play and Fictional Reality.

title: Sustainable Development: The Nature of Change and the Influence of Cultural Traits

description: It is only in the last few years that researchers have started to investigate the impact of cultural characteristics on the approach nations take to addressing the demands of sustainable development. The basis of such work tends to resort to the use of frameworks that were developed by Hofstede and the GLOBE project. Rogge, Dessein, and and Verhoeve (2013) argue that research into subjects as complex as this should commence with work of a more exploratory nature. This thesis is multidisciplinary, and uses a variety of methods to provide that first exploration into the nature of this relationship. My review of literature reveals that there is general acceptance that paradigmatic change is necessary but that decision making, behaviour and politics all tend to “safer” incremental steps. Using systems theory to examine the nature of paradigm change I identify the potential scope of government influence. The remainder of my work concentrates on the development of case studies of Japan, Denmark, Sweden and the United Kingdom, focussing on the manner in which the governments concerned support small to medium sized enterprises (SMEs) within the country in developing more sustainable practices. I use these case studies to identify the impact of culture. I find that the cultural dimension as defined in classic frameworks is not the pertinent issue, but the nation is likely to be sensitive to environmental demands if the environmental damage impinges on areas of their life that they value. If there are characteristics within the nation that provide for care and support then action is more likely to be taken. The other characteristics necessary to see through financing such action are perserverence and a long-term view. My other finding is that the use of statistical analysis and frameworks of cultural characteristics is problematic in that they both simplify a subject that should be understood in all its complexity.

title: How do Parents within the Orthodox Jewish Community Experience Accessing a Community Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service?
Creators: name: Rowland, Gemma
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2016

description: Previous research suggests that children of minority groups may be underserved by
mainstream services (Elster, Jarosik, VanGeest & Fleming, 2003). There has been
an identified need for research that focuses on barriers to accessing services faced
by minority groups, such as the Orthodox Jewish community (Dogra, Singh,
Svirdzenka & Vostansis, 2012). Given that parents are often the gate-keepers to
care (Stiffman, Pescosolido & Cabassa, 2004), understanding their help-seeking
behaviour is crucial to ensure that Orthodox children and families are given the same
opportunities to access services as their majority group peers. To date there is
extremely limited research on the help-seeking behaviours of Orthodox Jewish
parents. The current study sought to consider the experiences of Orthodox Jewish
parents who have accessed Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS)
in order to seek help for their families.
Semi-structured interviews were completed with nine Orthodox Jewish parents with
regards to their experiences of accessing tier 2 CAMHS for their child. A thematic
analysis was conducted. Four themes were found: ‘The Orthodox community as
unique’, ‘Pathways to help’, ‘Attitudes towards mental health’ and ‘The parental
journey’.
Participants described a number of significant cultural barriers to seeking help.
Stigma was identified as occurring in relation to mental health and also in relation to
the process of help-seeking, as suggested by previous research within adult
Orthodox populations (Feinberg & Feinberg, 1985). These stigmas relate to
concerns regarding labelling and future matchmaking for the child and their siblings.
Parents experience emotional and practical strains in parenting a child with mental
health difficulties and in accessing psychological support for their children. The
implications for service level change and clinical practice are considered.
