description: Abstract

Much emphasis has been focused to the issue of infertility linked to the impact of food additives and enhancers on testicular toxicity. Because of the natural chemical components found in plants, herbal medications are becoming a viable option to alleviate these detrimental effects on the testes. The purpose of this study was to assess how well Hemidesmus indicus ethanolic extract safeguard rat testicular structure from the damage brought about by monosodium glutamate (MSG) and how antioxidant markers were altered. The study involved Twenty-four (12-week old) male Wistar rats were divided into four groups at random: six animals each for the Control group (C), MSG group (MSG), Hemidesmus indicus ethanolic extract (HIE) group, and paired Hemidesmus indicus ethanolic extract and MSG (HIE+MSG) group. The study was conducted over 30 days. The left testis was evaluated for antioxidant enzyme activity at the conclusion of the time, and the right testis was subjected to a histological examination. The rats that were subjected to MSG showed significant morphological changes, including diminished growth of germ cells (including spermatids), disruption of the basal lamina, cytoplasmic vacuolation, and abnormalities in the levels of antioxidants in the testicles. Positively, there was a noticeable and steady alleviation in these effects in the group that received MSG and HIE treatment. The present study highlights the potential of ethanolic extract from Hemidesmus indicus as a therapeutic measure against testicular alterations caused by MSG, indicating the necessity for additional research on the effects of this extract on reproductive health and male fertility.
The WReSt Heuristic: The Role of Recall as Well as Feature–Importance in and Beyond the Cancellation and Focus Model

description: Recall combined with feature–importance is introduced as the underlying process of the Cancellation and Focus model and of preference judgments in general. Various memory–based process models are tested and evaluated in a series of three studies. Mere recall was not sufficient in predicting participants' preference ratings. However, two models in which recall was weighted by feature–importance were able to explain a significant part of the variance. These results were found not only in the first study, where they demonstrated a strong Cancellation and Focus effect, but also in the second study although here the effect was much weaker. Even using a slightly modified paradigm in the third study, in which the effect completely disappeared, these models maintained their predictive power. Surprisingly, our proposed fast and frugal Weighted Recalled Stepwise Comparing (WReSt) heuristic was able to predict preference ratings across the three studies just as well as the more complex and rational model Recalled Weighted Adding. Therefore, the WReSt heuristic is preferred.

description: Background: The Internet of Things (IoT) has gained significant attention due to advancements in technology and has potential applications in meeting the needs of an aging population. Smart technologies, a subset of IoT, can support older adults in aging in place, promoting independent living and improving their quality of life. However, there is a lack of research on how older adults and smart technologies coadapt over time to maximize their benefits and sustain adoption. Objective: We will aim to comprehensively review and analyze the existing scientific literature pertaining to the coadaptation between smart technologies and older adults. The primary focus will be to investigate the extent and nature of this coadaptation process and explore how older adults and technology coevolve over time to enhance older adults' experience with technology. Methods: This scoping review will follow the methodology outlined in the Joanna Briggs Institute Reviewer's Manual and adhere to the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Extension for Scoping Reviews) guidelines for reporting. Peer-reviewed articles will be searched in databases like Ovid MEDLINE, OVID Embase, PEDro, OVID PsycINFO, EBSCO CINAHL, the Cochrane Library, Scopus, IEEE Xplore, Web of Science, and Global Index Medicus. The research team will create a data extraction form covering study characteristics, participant characteristics, underlying models and frameworks, research findings, implications for technology coadaptation, and any identified study limitations. A directed content analysis approach will be used, incorporating the Selection, Optimization, and Compensation framework and Sex- and Gender-Based Analysis Plus theoretical framework. Results: The results of this study are expected in January 2024. Conclusions: This scoping review endeavors to present a thorough overview of the available evidence concerning how smart technologies interact with older adults over an extended period. The insights gained from this review will lay the groundwork for a research program that explores how older adults adapt to and use smart technologies throughout their lives, ultimately leading to improved user satisfaction and experience and facilitating aging in place with tailored support and user-centered design principles.

description: Nursing care historically has not been separated from institutional care costs. Organizations seek to quantify nursing care with no assignation of the value or uniqueness of the individual patient–nurse encounter. New models point to measuring care at this level. Nursing care encompasses tangible evidence that can be easy to quantify but, in the paradigm of healing and caring, and more specifically within the knowledge pool of holistic nursing, significant contributions are intangible and thus hard to measure. Anthroposophic nursing’s 12 nursing gestures offer an integration by making intangible nursing practice tangible. They incorporate addressing the whole person and more clearly show the caring and healing aspects of nursing care. Making such intangibles of care tangible contribute to the discussion of nursing value and how it is measured in healthcare organizations. More research is needed, however, to refine and value nursing care to more accurately reflect the connection between caring, healing, and patient outcomes.
Participatory Design Practices in Mental Health in the UK: Rebutting the Optimism

description: In what has been defined as an “era of participation,” design practices have become very central to the process of making publics and in bringing to life the dream of developing new ways of political engagement. By reflecting on my professional practice, I highlight the overly optimistic attitude that—most of the time—over-simplifies the role of design, especially when applied in public and community organizations. I illustrate participation as a paradox in itself, by problematizing the role and meaning of participatory encounters, and revealing some complex dynamics of exclusion and self-exclusion that are at play in the public realm.

description: Mutant TauAT does not aggregate in C. elegans neurons. (A) Sequential extraction reveals no insoluble tau in day-1 old adults. Tau was sequentially extracted from day-1 old transgenic worms, wild-type N2 (Bristol) worms served as control. Worms were lysed by sonication in high-salt buffer (RAB), centrifuged and supernatant collected as salt soluble Tau fraction. Reextraction of salt insoluble pellet with detergent buffer (RIPA) yielded detergent soluble Tau fraction. RIPA insoluble pellet was finally dissolved in urea buffer (UREA) to extract any insoluble fraction. Equal amount of protein was loaded and blotted using K9JA pan-tau antibody. (B) Bar diagram of Tau construct TauAT+VM with A152T mutation plus additional methionine substitution in the repeat domain (V337M) (htau40A152TV337M).

Ex[TauAT] and Ex[TauAT+VM] carrying the respective Tau transgenes as extrachromosomal arrays (Ex) show comparable levels of Tau expression. Tubulin serves as loading control. (D) Mean thrashing assay of day-1 old adult animals carrying TauAT or the double mutant variant (TauAT+VM) transgenes as extrachromosomal arrays. Ex[TauAT+VM] shows less thrashes than the non-tg (~5 % of non-tg). But there is no difference between the single mutant variant Ex[TauAT] and the double mutant variant Ex[TauAT+VM]. Non-tg strain serves as control. Error bars denote SEM, n ≥ 30, ns., not significant. One-way ANOVA with Tukey’s test applied for multiple comparisons. (PDF 246 kb)

description: Little is known on what impact shade trees have on the physiology of Coffea canephora (robusta coffee) under tropical humid conditions. To fill this gap, a field experiment was conducted in the Ecuadorian Amazon to investigate how growth, nutrition (leaf N), phenological state (BBCH-scale) and yield of 5-year-old robusta coffee shrubs are affected by the presence or absence of leguminous trees, the type (organic v conventional) and intensity of management. The experiment was a factorial 5 × 4 design with four cropping systems: intensive conventional (IC), moderate conventional (MC), intensive organic (IO) and low organic (LO), and with five shading systems in a split-plot arrangement: full sun (SUN), both Erythrina spp. and Myroxylon balsamum (TaE), M. balsamum (TIM), E. spp. (ERY) and Inga edulis (GUA). Three monthly assessments were made. Cherry yields of coffee shrubs under moderate shade (c. 25%) were similar to those under high light exposure. Coffee shrubs grown with either E. spp. or I. edulis were taller (+10%) and had higher leaf N concentrations (22%) than those grown without consistent shade. Unless receiving c. 25% of shade, coffee shrubs grown under organic cropping systems showed reduced growth (25%). No correlation was found between height, cherry yield and leaf N. Both shading and cropping systems affected leaf N concentration, also depending on phenological state and yield. Further research is needed to confirm our findings in the long-term as well as to elucidate how leguminous trees may induce physiological responses in robusta coffee under humid tropical conditions.

description: Objective: Health organizations increasingly digitize. However, studies reveal contradictory findings regarding the impact of healthcare information technology on health professionals. Therefore, the aim of this study is to describe the prevalence of technostress among health professionals and elaborate on the influencing factors. Participants: A secondary analysis was conducted utilizing cross-sectional data from the study, “Work-related stress among health professionals in Switzerland”, which included 8,112 health professionals from 163 health organizations in Switzerland. Methods: ANOVA for group comparisons followed by post-hoc analyses, along with a Multilevel Model to identify influencing factors for technostress ranging from “0” (never/almost never) to “100” (always), were conducted. Results: Health professionals experienced moderate technostress (mean 39.06, SD 32.54). Technostress differed between settings (p <.001) and health professions (p < .001). The model explains 18.1% of the variance with fixed effects, or 24.7% of the variance with fixed and random effects. Being a physician (β = 12.96), a nurse (β = 6.49), or the presence of an effort�reward-imbalance, increased technostress most (β = 6.11). A professional with no professional qualification (β = −7.94) showed the most reduction. Conclusion: Health professionals experience moderate technostress. However, decision-makers should consider the cognitive and social aspects surrounding digitalization, to reach a beneficial and sustainable level of usage.

description: Background Diet quality indexes are useful tools to measure diet quality because they compare dietary intakes against recommendations. A dietary quality index for Asian preschool-aged children is lacking. Objective The aims of this study were to develop and evaluate a dietary quality index for preschool-aged children (ie, the DQI-5) based on Singapore dietary recommendations and to examine diet quality in a cohort of 5-year-old children. An additional aim was to assess associations between sociodemographic characteristics and DQI-5 scores. Design A secondary analysis was conducted using dietary intake of children from the Growing Up in Singapore Towards healthy Outcomes mother–offspring cohort assessed in 2015-2016 using a validated food frequency questionnaire. The sociodemographic data were assessed at recruitment between June 2009 and September 2010. The DQI-5 was evaluated using a construct validity approach, whereby nutrition parameters associated with diet quality were studied. Participants and setting Participants were 767 Singaporean children aged 5 years of Chinese, Malay, or Indian ethnicity. Main outcome measures The main outcome measures were the DQI-5 scores and the sociodemographic characteristics associated with diet quality. Statistical analyses performed Kruskal-Wallis tests were used to evaluate differences in adherence to dietary recommendations across DQI-5 tertiles. Linear multiple regression analysis was performed to identify sociodemographic characteristics that were associated with diet quality in the children. Results The DQI-5 consists of 12 food and nutrient components, with a minimum score of zero and a maximum score of 110 points. The higher scores indicate a healthier diet, the mean ± SD DQI-5 score for the children was 61.6 ± 13.2. DQI-5 components with low scores included whole grains, vegetables, and fatty acid ratio, whereas total rice and alternatives and milk and dairy products components were overconsumed by 18% and 24.4% of children, respectively. Children with higher scores were more likely to meet dietary recommendations and had higher intake of nutrients such as dietary fiber, iron, vitamin A, and beta carotene. Children whose mothers were of Malay ethnicity and whose mothers had low income, an education below university, and shared primary caregiver responsibilities were more likely to have lower DQI-5 scores. Conclusions The DQI-5 scores revealed diets to be low for several components and excessive for a few. The DQI-5 developed for preschool-aged children in Singapore had adequate construct validity.

description: We previously described the observation of a characteristic narrowband red luminescence emission of burnt lime (CaO), whose reason was unknown so far. This study presents Raman spectra of Mg5(CO3)4(OH)2∙4H2O, Mg5(CO3)4(OH)2, MgCO3, CaMgCO3, and CaCO3 (in limestone powder) as well as luminescence spectra of their calcination products. Comparison of the latter revealed MgO:Cr3+ as the source of the red lime luminescence in all studied samples, containing magnesium oxide either as major component, minor component, or trace. Spectral characteristics and theoretical background of the luminescence emission of d-block elements integrated in crystal lattices are discussed with the aim of sharpening the awareness for this effect in the Raman community and promoting its application in materials analysis. The latter is demonstrated by the Raman microspectroscopic imaging of the distributions of both, Raman-active and Raman-inactive phases in clinker remnants in a 19th-century meso Portland cement mortar sample, which contain relatively high amounts of free lime detected in the form of both, luminescing CaO and Raman-scattering Ca(OH)2, owing to exposure of the surface of the thin section to humid air. A combination of light and Raman spectroscopy revealed a calcium-magnesium-iron sulphide phase, indicating sulphurous raw materials and/or solid fuels employed in the calcination process, which in contrast to previously described morphologies of sulphides in cement clinker form extensive greenish black layers on free lime crystals.

description: Introduction Socioeconomic deprivation in high‐income industrialized countries is a key factor in poor perinatal outcomes. Limited access, utilization, and quality of antenatal care seem to play an important role in poor perinatal outcomes. Methods This integrative review aimed to explore experiences of antenatal care among women who are socioeconomically deprived in high‐income industrialized countries. A search was conducted using 5 databases for articles published from 2004 to 2014. Six qualitative and 3 quantitative articles were selected. These were systematically appraised for quality independently by 3 researchers. Relevant themes were identified and organized into categories. Results The disadvantages experienced in antenatal care by women who are socioeconomically deprived start before the first contact with health care services and are notable throughout the entire pregnancy. There is disparity in choice of medical or midwifery service provision models. Six categories emerged during review: choice of service provision model, feeling valued, various types of discrimination, structural and interpersonal accessibility, comprehensibility and trustworthiness of information, and engagement and sense of responsibility. Categories underscored the importance of the woman's relationship with the antenatal care provider. Discussion Antenatal care models with women‐centered approaches and continuity of care, such as midwifery models, have potential to increase the satisfaction of women with low socioeconomic status with care; this may increase antenatal care utilization and improve perinatal outcomes.

description: Humus forms are a distinctive morphological indicator of soil organic matter decomposition. The spatial distribution of humus forms depends on environmental factors such as topography, climate and vegetation. In montane and subalpine forests, environmental influences show a high spatial heterogeneity, which is reflected by a high spatial variability of humus forms. This study aims at examining spatial patterns of humus forms and their dependence on the spatial scale in a high mountain forest environment (Val di Sole/Val di Rabbi, Trentino, Italian Alps). On the basis of the distributions of environmental covariates across the study area, we described humus forms at the local scale (six sampling sites), slope scale (60 sampling sites) and landscape scale (30 additional sampling sites). The local variability of humus forms was analyzed with regard to the ground cover type. At the slope and landscape scale, spatial patterns of humus forms were modeled applying random forests and ordinary kriging of the model residuals. The results indicate that the occurrence of the humus form classes Mull, Mullmoder, Moder, Amphi and Eroded Moder generally depends on the topographical position. Local-scale patterns are mostly related to micro-topography (local accumulation and erosion sites) and ground cover, whereas slope-scale patterns are mainly connected with slope exposure and elevation. Patterns at the landscape scale show a rather irregular distribution, as spatial models at this scale do not account for local to slope-scale variations of humus forms. Moreover, models at the slope scale perform distinctly better than at the landscape scale. In conclusion, the results of this study highlight that landscape-scale predictions of humus forms should be accompanied by local- and slope-scale studies in order to enhance the general understanding of humus form patterns.
Exploring the Possible Impact of Introducing Islamic Banking and Finance (IBF) in Ghana: Opportunities and Challenges

subject: Philosophy and religious studies

description: Ghana is one of Africa’s largest untapped Islamic finance markets. Despite the passing of a bill to allow Islamic Banking and Finance (IBF) activities in the country, there has still not been full-fledged Islamic banking operation. Several reasons, ranging from the lack of regulations to the lack of knowledge about the whole Islamic finance system, are offered as the likely stumbling blocks to introducing the IBF system in the country. Previous studies on this subject have been carried out from an ex-ante perspective. This thesis, however, explores the possible impact of introducing the IBF system in Ghana from an ex-post perspective. A multi-dimensional study approach that involves correlation, regression, context, and SWOT analyses is used to respectively examine the knowledge of IBF among Ghanaians; examine IBF appeal to Ghanaians; determine the potential of introducing IBF in Ghana; review the legal framework for IBF in Ghana; and review the Shari’ah regulatory framework, if any, for IBF in Ghana. A sample size of 199 respondents, made up of businessmen and businesswomen of various religious affiliations engaged in the informal sector of the economy, is used to collect the data necessary for the investigations. It is found that Ghanaians do have some knowledge of IBF, and IBF will appeal to them if introduced. However, the potential of introducing the IBF system in Ghana can hardly exclusively be determined by the knowledge among and appeal of the IBF system to Ghanaians. While there has been a genuine commitment to providing the regulatory ambiance for IBF in Ghana, there is the need to intensify the efforts since Ghana has more to gain than to lose from the development of IBF.

description: Climate extremes can seriously affect supply chains of agricultural commodities, decreasing agricultural production and disrupting transport, which is detrimental to livelihoods of smallholders all around the world. We assess the extent of climate extremes by 2050 on Fairtrade producers of banana, cocoa, coffee, and tea. We find that globally, most of the 1.6 million producers within this supply chain could be affected by future heatwaves across all sourcing regions. However, for some crops and in some regions, producers could also be affected by considerable increases in drought and extreme rainfall. Without timely adaptation measures, production in major banana, cocoa, coffee, and tea regions might not be possible in the future, or farmers might need to diversify or change crops. Through spatially explicit analysis of a particular supply chain, we can support the planning of more climate-proof supply chains that can provide stable incomes and commodity supply under future climate change.

description: In Switzerland the consumption of non-dairy plant-based beverages increased (+19%) from 2011 to 2016 whereas the consumption of cow’s milk decreased (-6%). This trend makes it necessary to investigate in detail which products are on the market, what they are composed of and the implications with regard to their nutritional value. The main supermarket chains in Switzerland sell 45 non-dairy plant-based beverages that were analysed as to their composition (information from the label and nutrient databases) and nutrient content per recommended serving size. This information was correlated to the recommended dietary allowances published by the Swiss Society for Nutrition (SSN), for adults (25-51), children (4-7 years) and toddlers (1-3 years). The main focus was placed on the protein content and amino acid composition of the beverages which is of great importance for different physiological functions. Furthermore, calcium, sugar, and salt content were discussed in detail. Altogether, replacing cow’s milk with non-dairy plant-based beverages leads to a reduced intake of proteins, calcium, certain vitamins and minerals and to an increased intake of added salt. Therefore, such a substitution should be made with precaution and nutrient deficiencies balanced with other food sources.
Reduced food intake after exposure to subtle weight-related cues

description: This research investigated the influence of weight-related cues on food intake. The first study used a screensaver showing three of the famous skinny human-like sculptures by Alberto Giacometti and found that participants in this condition consumed less chocolate than when they were exposed to a more neutral work of art. In the second study, participants had to indicate their body weight either before or after the tasting. Reporting their weight before the tasting resulted in reduced food intake. A gender effect was found for the second but not the first study. We suggest that the cues in the two studies might have been processed with different levels of awareness, which might explain the gender effect found in the second study.

description: Growing negative changes cause a deterioration in food quality, which makes people select organic and eco-intelligent food. The aim of the article is to analyze various types of customer behavior using an example of a local catering company that offers eco-intelligent food. The company’s brand operates two catering stores located in different parts of an urban city. The interview of existing and potential customers was conducted within 1,000-meter radius of store locations at peak hours (7:30–10:00 am and 12:00–2:30 pm). The model of consumer behavior is centered on the main principle of deciding to buy eco-intelligent food. The data suggest that customers are looking for additional necessary services, which are vital for eco-intelligent products and expanded selection according to the store’s format. Both the time of the ordering processing and the ability to order a personalized meal have the main influence on customers’ decision. Large selection of eco culinary products in the stores attracts local residents to visit one of these stores at least once a week. An essential feature of a culinary store offering eco-intelligent food is high-quality prepared food. The study recommends expanding promotional programs to give consumers additional knowledge about the advantages of organic nutrition. The prevalent consumer model describes a woman under 40 years old who visits a store at least once a week for lunch and prefers a comfortable environment and a diverse selection of quality eco-food.
