A SEASONAL ANALYSIS OF SLEEP PATTERNS IN COLLEGE ATHLETES: TRENDS AND CHALLENGES
Creators: name: Luke, Thompson
name: Alexander, Davis
Publisher: name: CARSON JOURNAL
Year: 2024
Subjects: Sleep Duration, College Athletes, Sleep Deprivation, REM and NREM Sleep, Daytime Fatigue

description: Sleep, a reversible state of perceptual disengagement from the environment, is a fundamental aspect of human health and performance. It comprises two distinct stages: rapid eye movement (REM) and non-REM (NREM) sleep, each characterized by unique physiological and neurological features. The National Sleep Foundation recommends 7 to 9 hours of sleep for young adults and adults, yet studies reveal that college athletes often fall short of these guidelines, averaging approximately 6.8 hours per night. These sleep deficits are further compounded by daytime fatigue reported by 61% of NCAA athletes. Furthermore, the preference for more sleep is evident among both male and female athletes, with 70% and 82%, respectively, expressing a desire for increased rest. Sleep inconsistency is prevalent among young adults due to late-night activities and strict morning schedules, contributing to the complex issue of sleep deprivation in college athletes. This abstract highlights the substantial impact of sleep insufficiency on the well-being and performance of this population

Arabic Metaphor Sentiment Classification Using Semantic Information
Creators: name: Alsiyat, Israa
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2025
Subjects: subject: Computation and Language (cs.CL)
subject: Artificial Intelligence (cs.AI)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: In this paper, I discuss the testing of the Arabic Metaphor Corpus (AMC) [1] using newly designed automatic tools for sentiment classification for AMC based on semantic tags. The tool incorporates semantic emotional tags for sentiment classification. I evaluate the tool using standard methods, which are F-score, recall, and precision. The method is to show the impact of Arabic online metaphors on sentiment through the newly designed tools. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first approach to conduct sentiment classification for Arabic metaphors using semantic tags to find the impact of the metaphor.

The influence of the consumable and power supply type on welding fume characteristics
Creators: name: Brooks, Geoffrey

name: Tyagi, V. K.
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: A study of the effect of power supply characteristics on the fume generation rate, composition and characteristics of the fume was carried out using mild steel and stainless steel wire consumables. Inductively coupled plasma elemental analysis, atomic absorption spectrometry, x-ray diffraction, particle size analysis, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectrometry were used to characterise the fumes and to gain insight into what occurs in the arc region during welding. Significant decreases in fume formation rate were found for several combinations of power source and consumable type. Chemical analyses of the collected fume indicated that in most instances power source type did not have a major influence on the chemical composition . However, the results for the stainless steel suggested that the highest hexavalent chromium (Cr^Vl) levels were achieved with more sophisticated power supplies.

description: Infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus affects a wide range of systems. Significant involvement of the central nervous system has been described, including ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes. Thus far, neuropathologic reports of patients who passed away from COVID-19 have generally described non-specific findings, such as variable reactive gliosis and meningeal chronic inflammatory infiltrates, as well as the consequences of the infection’s systemic complications on the brain, including ischemic infarcts and hypoxic/ischemic encephalopathy. The neuropathological changes in patients with COVID-19 and large hemorrhagic strokes have not been described in detail. We report the case of an elderly male who had a long course of COVID-19 and ultimately passed away from a large intracerebral hemorrhage. In addition to acute hemorrhage, neuropathologic examination demonstrated non-specific reactive changes and chronic periventricular lesions with macrophagic and perivascular lymphocytic infiltrates without evidence of demyelination or presence of SARS-CoV-2 by PCR test. This manuscript expands the spectrum of reported neuropathological changes in patients with COVID-19.

Comparing methodologies for classification of zebra finch distance calls

Publisher: name: University of Alberta Library
Year: 2022

Bioacoustic analysis have been used for a variety of purposes including classifying vocalizations for biodiversity monitoring and understanding mechanisms of cognitive processes. A wide range of statistical methods, including various automated methods, have been used to successfully classify vocalizations based on species, sex, geography, and individual. A comprehensive approach focusing on identifying acoustic features putatively involved in classification is required for the prediction of features necessary for discrimination in the real world. Here, we used several classification techniques, namely Discriminant Function Analyses (DFAs), Support Vector Machines (SVMs), and Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), for sex-based classification of zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) distance calls using acoustic features measured from spectrograms. We found that all three methods (DFAs, SVM, and ANNs) correctly classified the calls to respective sex-based categories with high accuracy between 92 and 96%. Frequency modulation of ascending frequency, total duration, and end frequency of the distance call were the most predictive features underlying this classification in all of our models. Our results corroborate evidence of the importance of total call duration and frequency modulation in the classification of male and female distance calls. Moreover, we provide a methodological approach for bioacoustic classification problems using multiple statistical analyses.

What next for Australia's refugee policy?
Creators: name: Mares, Peter
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: After the federal government prevented the merchant vessel Tampa from landing rescued asylum seekers at Christmas Island in August last year, the rules of the refugee game in Australia were completely recast. As critics of the government continue to grapple with the immediate toll in human misery generated by the pre-existing policy of mandatory detention, it is easy to miss the bigger picture and fail to recognise the astounding breadth of what was done in the wake of the Tampa. With Labor’s support, the government passed a raft of legislation that fundamentally restricts the rights of asylum seekers, and dramatically expands the rights of those officials who intercept and deter them. The government even tinkered with our national sovereignty---the very thing it was supposedly protecting---by re-defining the concept of border, so that an asylum seeker who lands at the Australian territory of Christmas Island is no longer considered to be inside Australia for the purposes of the Migration Act.

description: Humanitarian aid, development assistance and government budget allocations to education continues to dwindle resulting in an increase of the number of children out of school especially for low resourced countries. (GMR, 2015). Due to this, Zimbabwean education has become expensive and thus inaccessible to children in low income communities and rural areas. In 2012, more than 500, 000 students were recorded to be out of school in Zimbabwe. This paper, a comparative literature review, sought to identify challenges in current education funding, document various indigenous alternative models of funding and attempt to develop a Zimbabwean education financing framework from lessons drawn from literature. It examined how different philanthropic practices and civil society participation in low resourced countries can contribute to improving education programs. Three themes, active civil society, functional governments and integration of civil society and government approaches, emerged as the pillars for creating a substantial financing plan for education. Recommendations for further study articulated next steps in establishing a sustainable financing framework. These include investigating what was, what is, and what should be the relationship between stakeholders and education financing to develop an in-depth understanding of current status quo and how it can be improved.

description: Background: The smoking of illicit drugs presents a serious social and economic burden in Canada. People who smoke drugs (PWSD) are at increased risk of contracting multiple infections through risky drug practices. Peer-led harm reduction activities, and the resulting social networks that form around them, can potentially minimize the dangers associated with the smoking illicit drugs. Goal: The goals of this study were to pilot test the combined approaches of respondent driven sampling with community based participatory action research in these settings and compare the attributes and social networks of PWSD in two British Columbia cities with different harm reduction programs. Methods: Using community-based participatory action research (CBPAR) and respondent-driven sampling (RDS), individuals with lived drug experiences were employed from communities in Abbotsford and Vancouver as peer researchers to interview ten contacts from their social networks. Contacts completed a questionnaire about their harm reduction behaviours and interactions. Results: We found that PWSD residing in Abbotsford were more likely to report engaging in harm-promoting behaviours, such as sharing, reusing, or borrowing crack pipes. However, PWSD in the Downtown East side Community of Vancouver were more likely to report engaging in harm-reducing activities, such as being trained in naloxone use and CPR. We found no differences in network sizes between the two communities, despite the population differences and harm reduction programs Conclusion: The high participation rates and interactions between researchers, and peer researchers enriched the study implementation and successfully informed our results. The fact that there were no differences in network size suggests that people have similar support in Vancouver as in Abbotsford, and that drug use practices differ mainly due to availability of harm reduction programming and resources.

description: S. aureus and A. baumannii are among the ESKAPE pathogens that are increasingly difficult to treat due to the rise in the number of drug resistant strains. Novel therapeutics targeting these pathogens are much needed. The bacterial enoyl reductase (FabI) is as potentially significant drug target for developing pathogen-specific antibiotics due to the presence of alternate FabI isoforms in many other bacterial species. We report the identification and development of a novel N-carboxy pyrrolidine scaffold targeting FabI in S. aureus and A. baumannii, two pathogens for which FabI essentiality has been established. This scaffold is unrelated to other known antibiotic families, and FabI is not targeted by any currently approved antibiotic. Our data shows that this scaffold displays promising enzyme inhibitory activity against FabI from both S. aureus and A. baumannii, as well as encouraging antibacterial activity in S. aureus. Compounds also display excellent synergy when combined with colistin and tested against A. baumannii. In this combination the MIC of colistin is reduced by 10-fold. Our first generation compound displays promising enzyme inhibition, targets FabI in S. aureus with a favorable selectivity index (ratio of cytotoxicity to MIC), and has excellent synergy with colistin against A. baumannii, including a multidrug resistant strain.

INTEGRATING POLITICAL ECONOMY WITH SOCIAL DETERMINANTS: ADVANCING RESEARCH ON HEALTH INEQUALITIES

Year: 2024
Subjects: Social Determinants of Health (SDH), Health Disparities, Well-being, Global Health, Health Inequality

description: The World Health Organization's definition of health as complete physical, mental, and social well-being, rather than mere absence of disease, underlines the significance of universal well-being. However, access to such well-being is far from uniform across the global population. Over the past three decades, these disparities have been illuminated by the framework of "social determinants of health" (SDH), as defined by the WHO.

SDH encompasses the conditions in which individuals are born, raised, reside, labor, and age, serving as the fundamental drivers of these conditions. These factors range from economic measures like GDP per capita to community aspects such as educational institutions, public transportation, and even the prevalence of fast-food chains.

While the availability and quality of medical care influence health outcomes, they have a more limited role in determining the initial susceptibility to illness. This abstract underscores the essential role of SDH in shaping health disparities globally, reflecting the complex interplay between social, economic, and environmental factors that impact individuals' well-being.
Regulation of tertiary education
Creators: name: Abbott, Malcolm
Publisher: name: Swinburne

description: The provision of tertiary education is regarded by many as being vital to both the achievement of economic success and greater social equity. In recent years the trend in most countries has been to grant government education providers with greater institutional autonomy but at the same time subject them, and private providers, to formal regulation. The impact of this regulation to both government and private providers is little understood by participants and in most countries is still in an evolutionary stage.

description: Das Umweltbewusstsein und Umweltverhalten junger Menschen ist Gegenstand des vorliegenden Vertiefungsberichts. Die Ergebnisse sind im Rahmen der Umweltbewusstseinsstudie 2014 des Bun-desministeriums für Umwelt, Naturschutz, Bau und Reaktorsicherheit (⁠BMUB⁠) und des Umweltbundesamts (⁠UBA⁠) entstanden. Neben der online durchgeführten Repräsentativbefragung mit deutsch-sprachigen Personen ab 14 Jahren fanden mehrere qualitative Untersuchungen statt. Der Bericht behandelt die umweltbezogenen Einstellungen und Verhaltensweisen junger Menschen und ihr Verständnis eines guten Lebens und der Rolle von Umwelt und Natur dabei. Es zeigt sich, dass Umwelt und Natur in der Alltagswelt junger Menschen eine andere Rolle als in der Gesamtstichprobe haben.Website IÖW: Online- und Panel-Erhebungen zur sozialwissenschaftlichen Erforschung von Umweltbewusstsein
Management strategies and clinical outcomes in breast cancer patients who develop left ventricular dysfunction during trastuzumab therapy

description: Background: Trastuzumab reduces risk of breast cancer recurrence but carries risk of cardiotoxicity that may be reversible upon treatment cessation and institution of left ventricular (LV) enhancement therapies (LVETx). We assessed management patterns of trastuzumab-induced cardiotoxicity (TIC) in a contemporary real-world setting. Methods: We reviewed charts of all breast cancer patients who received adjuvant trastuzumab in British Columbia between January 2010 and December 2013, spanning the opening of a cardio-oncology clinic. LV dysfunction (LVD) was classified as minimal (LVEF nadir 45–49%), mild (40–44%) or moderate-severe (< 40%). Charts were reviewed for baseline characteristics, management strategies, and outcomes. Multivariable analysis was performed to identify patient characteristics associated with trastuzumab completion and cardiology referral. Results: Of 967 patients receiving trastuzumab, 171 (17.7%) developed LVD, including 114 patients (11.8%) with LVEF declines of ≥10 to < 50%. Proportions of patients receiving cardiology referrals and LVETx increased and wait times to consultation decreased after a dedicated cardio-oncology clinic opened. LVETx was used more frequently in patients with moderate-severe LVD compared to minimal or mild LVD. Factors associated with completion of trastuzumab included mastectomy (OR 5.1, 95% CI 1.1–23.0) and proximity to quaternary care centre (OR 7.7, 95% CI 2.2–26.2). Moderate-severe LVD was associated with a lower probability of completing trastuzumab (OR 0.07 vs. minimal LVD, 95% CI 0.01–0.74). Factors associated with cardiology referral included heart failure symptoms (OR 8.0, 95% CI 1.5–42.9), proximity to quaternary care centre (OR 6.8, 95% CI 1.3–34.2), later year of cancer diagnosis (OR 2.4 per year, 95% CI 1.4–4.3), node-positive disease (OR 0.18, 95% CI 0.06–0.56), mastectomy (OR 0.05, 95% CI 0.01–0.52), and minimal LVD (OR 0.14, 95% CI 0.05–0.46). LVEF recovered to > 50% in 90.7% of patients. Conclusions: Management strategies in patients with TIC are associated with cancer characteristics and severity of cardiotoxicity. Access to dedicated cardio-oncology clinics may facilitate optimal care of this complex patient population.

description: Enoyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) reductase II (FabK) is a critical rate-limiting enzyme in the bacterial type II fatty-acid synthesis (FAS II) pathway. FAS II pathway enzymes are markedly disparate from their mammalian analogs in the FAS I pathway in both structure and mechanism. Enzymes involved in bacterial fatty-acid synthesis represent viable drug targets for Gram-negative pathogens, and historical precedent exists for targeting them in the treatment of diseases of the oral cavity. The Gram-negative organism Porphyromonas gingivalis represents a key causative agent of the costly and highly prevalent disease known as chronic periodontitis, and exclusively expresses FabK as its enoyl reductase enzyme in the FAS-II pathway. Together, these characteristics distinguish P. gingivalis FabK (PgFabK) as an attractive and novel narrow-spectrum antibacterial target candidate. PgFabK is a flavoenzyme that is dependent on FMN and NADPH as cofactors for the enzymatic reaction, which reduces the enoyl substrate via a ping-pong mechanism. Here, the structure of the PgFabK enzyme as determined using X-ray crystallography is reported to 1.9 Å resolution with endogenous FMN fully resolved and the NADPH cofactor partially resolved. PgFabK possesses a TIM-barrel motif, and all flexible loops are visible. The determined structure has allowed insight into the structural basis for the NADPH dependence observed in PgFabK and the role of a monovalent cation that has been observed in previous studies to be stringently required for FabK activity. The PgFabK structure and the insights gleaned from its analysis will facilitate structure-based drug-discovery efforts towards the prevention and treatment of P. gingivalis infection.
