title: Supplementary Material for: Long-lasting COVID-associated brain fog; a follow-up study

description: Background: We investigated the longevity of COVID-associated brain fog in patients who have survived the COVID-19. Methods: This was a follow-up study of 2,696 adult patients with COVID-19 from our previous study (doi: 10.1002/jmv.27404). We selected every other patient in our database. The follow-up data were collected during a phone call to the participants in January-February 2022 (11 months after the initial study): concentration difficulty and the patient’s self-declared status in their ability to concentrate. Results: In total, 1164 people were included; 35 people (3.0%) had concentration difficulty and 65 individuals (5.6%) had a worsened status in their ability to concentrate and think; 26 people (2.2%) responded yes to both questions and were considered as having long-lasting brain fog. People with long-lasting brain fog were more often admitted to ICUs during the initial hospitalization (23.1% vs. 9.3%; p = 0.032) compared with those without long-lasting brain fog. Conclusion: We may conclude that a minority of the hospitalized patients with COVID-19 may suffer from long-lasting post-COVID brain fog, at least for more than one year after their initial illness. Long-lasting post-COVID brain fog has a significant association with the severity of the initial illness.

title: Supplementary Material for: In vivo Imaging of the Cerebral Endothelial Glycocalyx in Mice

description: <b><i>Background/Aims:</i></b> Endothelial glycocalyx refers to the proteoglycan or glycoprotein layer of vessel walls and has critical physiological functions. Cerebral glycocalyx may have additional functions considering the blood-brain barrier and other features. However, the assessment of it has only been performed ex vivo, which includes processes presumably damaging the glycocalyx layer. Here we visualize and characterize the cerebral endothelial glycocalyx in vivo. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We visualized and quantified the cerebral endothelial glycocalyx in vivo under a 2-photon microscope by tagging glycocalyx and vessel lumen with wheat germ agglutinin lectin and dextran, respectively. The radial intensity was analyzed to measure the thickness of the cerebral endothelial glycocalyx in each vessel type. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Cerebral arteries and capillaries have an intact endothelial glycocalyx, but veins and venules do not. The thickness of the glycocalyx layer in pial arteries, penetrating arteries, and capillaries was different; however, it was not correlated with the vessel diameter within each vessel type. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> We characterized the distribution of the cerebral endothelial glycocalyx in vivo. Compared to the results from ex vivo studies, the layer is thicker, indicating that the layer may be damaged in ex vivo systems. We also observed an inhomogeneous cerebral endothelial glycocalyx distribution that might reflect the functional heterogeneity of the vessel type.

title: Supplementary Material for: Obesity representations: an analysis of Italian newspapers’ coverage before and after COVID-19 and the influence of political orientation

description: Introduction: A large body of literature has shown that media representations of obesity influence people’s attitudes and contribute to weight stigma and discriminatory behaviors. The present study aimed to identify the representations of obesity in nine main Italian national newspapers and analyze how these representations varied before and after the COVID-19 lockdown (2016-2023), also in relation to the political orientation of the newspapers. Methods: The Automated Co-occurrence Analysis for Semantic Mapping procedure (ACASM) was used to identify the themes. A T-test and time series analysis were conducted to test the hypotheses. Results: Findings showed that the selected Italian newspapers represented obesity according to five different themes labelled Wellness, Problem, Health, Nutrition and Disease. It was found that the articles related to obesity increased after the lockdown. The Wellness and Health themes were found to be the more prevalent after the end of the emergency period. This result differed according to the newspapers’ political orientation. Conclusions: The findings suggest considering the representations that specific newspapers convey according to their political orientation in order to promote different narratives that could have a relevant impact on obesity.

title: Dataset for 'Sedimentary 17O-nitrate evidence for Phanerozoic aridity and humidity oscillations in South China' in Geophysical Research Letters

description: Climate changes are known to have been a key regulator of the biodiversity in Earth’s history. However, the dry-humid degrees and alternating patterns throughout the Phanerozoic remain largely unconstrained. In this study, we report high contents (2.4 ± 3.8 mg N kg-1) and 17O anomalies (11.0 ± 7.4 ‰) of nitrate (NO3-) in the early Cambrian black shale from South China, likely caused by atmospheric NO3- intrusion under dry climates that followed tectonic uplift. By developing new methods to quantify aridity indices (AI, 0.06 ± 0.08) in combination with observational data with paleoclimate models, we reconstructed the historical AI variations. Our analyses revealed three significant dry-to-humid transitions which include Cambrian-Ordovician to Silurian-Permian, Permian-Triassic boundary to middle Triassic-early Jurassic, and Jurassic-Paleogene to Neogene. This study quantitatively unlocked the Phanerozoic climate changes in South China, offering important evidence for understanding the co-evolution of ecological and climatic systems in Earth’s history.

title: Thermal-FIST: A package for heavy-ion collisions and hadronic equation of state

description: Thermal-FIST is a C++ package designed for a convenient general-purpose physics analysis within the family of hadron resonance gas (HRG) models. This mainly includes the statistical analysis of particle production in heavy-ion collisions and the phenomenology of hadronic equation of state. Notable features include fluctuations and correlations of conserved charges, effects of probabilistic decay, chemical non-equilibrium, and inclusion of van der Waals hadronic interactions. Calculations are possible within the grand canonical ensemble, the canonical ensemble, as well as in mixed-canonical ensembles combining the canonical treatment of certain conserved charges with the grand-canonical treatment of other conserved charges. The package contains a fast thermal event generator, which generates particle yields in accordance with the HRG chemistry, and particle momenta based on the Blast Wave model. A distinct feature of this package is the presence of the graphical user interface frontend – QtThermalFIST – which is designed for fast and convenient general-purpose HRG model applications.

title: Supplementary Material for: Proximal Processes, Temperament, and Pathological Narcissism: An Empirical Exploration from the Longitudinal Study of Personality Disorders

description: <b><i>Introduction:</i></b> It is argued that all personality pathology represents the final emergent product of a complex interaction of underlying neurobehavioral systems, which are reflected in personality factors, in conjunction with environmental inputs. Neurobehavioral systems manifest themselves in dispositional temperament and personality processes. Environmental inputs include, obviously, interpersonal relationships (e.g., parenting, social, and mentoring relations) as well as other factors such as abuse, neglect, and/or environmental insults (e.g., economic hardship, deprivation). Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is hypothesized to reflect both dispositional and environmental inputs to its pathogenesis. Temperament and personality-based theorizing regarding NPD proposes high dispositional levels of anger and related temperament features that could shape early development and subsequent NPD. Many classic theorists (e.g., Freud, Kernberg, Kohut, Miller) have also proposed that profound parenting failures are implicated in the emergence of NPD, each suggesting some failure in proper engagement and responsivity with the developing child. Such a failure in parenting can be thought of as reflecting diminished proximal process engagement with the developing child. <b><i>Method:</i></b> Using data from the <i>Longitudinal Study of Personality Disorders</i>, the present study examines both proximal process and temperament factors in relation to clinically significant NPD features from a prospective perspective. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Results suggest that both proximal process and temperament (notably anger) factors independently predict the level of NPD features over time. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Both interpersonal relationships and temperament should be considered in models of etiology of NPD, it is not just one or the other.

title: Chua’s oscillator: an introductory approach to chaos theory

description: The purpose of this article is to build an introductory approach to chaos theory from the Chua’ oscillator for students of mathematics, physics and engineering. The Chua’ circuit is one of the simplest dynamic systems that produce irregular behavior. Despite its simplicity, this oscillating circuit is a very useful device for studying basic principles of chaos theory. This study begins with the definition of equilibrium points, this is done in a graphic and analytical way. The analysis of the stationary solution of differential equations system allows to show the occurrence of pitchfork bifurcation. The eigenvalues are calculated and the trajectories of the Chua’ oscillator are analyzed, then the occurrence of Hopf bifurcation is demonstrated. Period-doubling cascade are observed using phase portrait and orbit diagram. Finally, sensitivity to initial conditions is studied by calculating Lyapunov exponents.

title: Supplementary Material for: Prevalence of Oropharyngeal Dysphagia and Risk of Pneumonia, Malnutrition, and Mortality in Adults Aged 60 Years and Older: A Meta-Analysis

description: <b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) is a serious health condition associated with poor survival and quality of life in adults aged 60 years and older. Comprehensive assessment and management of OD could lead to better and improved health outcomes for older adults. Therefore, we performed the first meta-analysis to determine the pooled prevalence of OD and risk of pneumonia, malnutrition, and mortality. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Databases including Ovid-MEDLINE, Web of Science, Embase, PubMed, Cochrane, and CINAHL were searched up to January 2021. Data analysis was conducted using logistic-normal for prevalence rate and DerSimonian-Lard random-effects models for outcomes and associated factors of OD, providing odds ratio (OR) and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI). <b><i>Results:</i></b> The pooled prevalence of OD in 39 studies with 31,488 participants was 46% associated with higher pooled OR for risk of pneumonia 2.07 (95% CI, 1.58–2.72), malnutrition 2.21 (95% CI, 1.43–3.41), and mortality 2.73 (95% CI, 1.62–4.60). Geriatric syndromes including fecal incontinence 6.84 (4.955–9.44), immobility syndrome 6.06 (5.28–6.96), pressure ulcers 4.02 (2.46–6.56), sarcopenia 3.10 (1.89–5.09), urinary incontinence 2.75 (1.81–4.19), frailty 2.66 (1.16–6.13), delirium 2.23 (1.73–2.87), and falls 1.47 (1.19–1.81) and comorbidities including dementia 3.69 (2.36–5.78) and stroke 1.92 (1.47–2.52) were associated with OD. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Early identification and management of OD should consider geriatric syndromes and neurogenic comorbidities to prevent malnutrition and pneumonia and reduce mortality in adults aged 60 years and older.

title: Supplementary Material for: Plasma Oxytocin Is Not Associated with Social Cognition or Behavior in Frontotemporal Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease Syndromes

description: <b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Changes in social behavior and emotion processing are common in frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and semantic dementia (SD), and less so in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Recent research has investigated oxytocin as a potential treatment for these symptoms; however, whether plasma oxytocin is associated with social-emotional symptoms of dementia remains underexplored. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Thirty behavioral-variant FTD (bvFTD), 28 SD, 39 AD, and 24 controls underwent blood sampling to measure oxytocin. Participants completed an emotion processing battery. Carers completed the Cambridge Behavioral Inventory and the Neuropsychiatric Inventory. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Patients with bvFTD were severely impaired in emotion processing and behavioral ratings, with milder impairment in SD and AD. No difference in plasma oxytocin was observed between groups (<i>p</i> = 0.632). No significant associations were found between oxytocin and social behavior or emotion processing (<i>r</i> values between −0.241 and 0.227, all <i>p</i> values &gt;0.099). <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Our results indicate that plasma oxytocin is not reduced in dementia and is unrelated to social, emotional, and behavioral features. We noted high interindividual variability in our data; hence, future investigations should consider methodological influences such as serum versus saliva and diurnal variation on oxytocin function. These results demonstrate that current measurement measures of plasma oxytocin have limited utility in determining the role of oxytocin in FTD. Alternative oxytocin measures may prove more sensitive and should be considered when conducting clinical trials.

title: Consumer perceptions and behavior towards fast food businesses

description: Cleaned raw data in Excel csv collected on consumer perceptions and behavior towards fast food businesses in Zambia. The dataset includes a closed ended questionnaire with four sections enough to answer all the 3 research questions. The questionnaire was distributed in such a way that it included all the sections of the 2 cities of Lusaka and Kitwe in order to have a very representative sample of the population in the urban parts of the 2 cities where fast food businesses are established. 

The data gathered using a an online Google questionnaire had likert scale items that answered three main questions on perception, behavior and purchase intentions of fast foods with an overall objective of providing a descriptive analysis of the consumer perceptions, behaviors and intention to purchase fast-foods in Zambia. Needless to state that the dataset also captured some socio-economic and demographic characteristics of consumers with codes such as 1 for males and 2 for females.

Apart from the demographics section, all the other 3 sections of the questionnaire had likert scale levels that captured levels for 1=strongly disagree, 2=disagree, 3=neutral, 4=agree, 5=strongly agree. Factor analysis was then conducted using SPSS IBM version 23 in order to have a deep understanding of the role each item captured in the questionnaire played. Reliability and consistency of the data was done using Cronbach Alpha which had a significant value of 0.7.

One of the notable findings was the fact that consumption of fast food increased by 54%, post Covid-19 pandemic. This simply means that there has been an increase in the demand for fast food in Zambia after the end of Covid-19. It is therefore, viable to increase investment in fast food businesses in Zambia in order to meet up with the increased demand for fast food. 

Lastly but not the least, the dataset can be used to conduct a descriptive analysis study of the 2 major cities of Zambia (Kitwe and Lusaka) in the fast food industry. There is also potential to expand the study in order to understand more about the consumer behavior and perceptions.
