Young people and golf

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This chapter highlights the available research literature around young people and golf, and highlights that there is a dearth of work in this area at every level. It explores the developing area of work and understanding of young people's engagement in golf from a sociological and psychosocial perspective. The chapter focuses on the key empirical research in golf. It shows there is a significant lack of detailed and in-depth research on youth participation in the game. Beyond the in-depth work of Zevenbergen and group, the majority of available research has been based on those who already play the game at a good level, and the majority of this work is based in Europe. The future of the game of golf relies significantly on the impact of junior development, and at the earliest of stages, basic golfing engagement. There are a plethora of socio-cultural factors that have an impact upon the engagement and socialisation of young people in the game.
Transformer-Based Multilingual Speech Emotion Recognition Using Data Augmentation and Feature Fusion

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

In recent years data science has been applied in a variety of real-life applications such as human-computer interaction applications, computer gaming, mobile services, and emotion evaluation. Among the wide range of applications, speech emotion recognition (SER) is also an emerging and challenging research topic. For SER, recent studies used handcrafted features that provide the best results but failed to provide accuracy while applied in complex scenarios. Later, deep learning techniques were used for SER that automatically detect features from speech signals. Deep learning-based SER techniques overcome the issues of accuracy, yet there are still significant gaps in the reported methods. Studies using lightweight CNN failed to learn optimal features from composite acoustic signals. This study proposed a novel SER model to overcome the limitations mentioned earlier in this study. We focused on Arabic vocal emotions in particular because they received relatively little attention in research. The proposed model performs data augmentation before feature extraction. The 273 derived features were fed as input to the transformer model for emotion recognition. This model is applied to four datasets named BAVED, EMO-DB, SAVEE, and EMOVO. The experimental findings demonstrated the robust performance of the proposed model compared to existing techniques. The proposed SER model achieved 95.2%, 93.4%, 85.1%, and 91.7% accuracy on BAVED, EMO-DB, SAVEE, and EMOVO datasets respectively. The highest accuracy was obtained using BAVED dataset, indicating that the proposed model is well suited to Arabic vocal emotions.
Validation of the Brazilian Portuguese version of Evidence-based Practice Knowledge Assessment in Nursing (EKAN)

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

ABSTRACT Objective The Evidence-based Practice Knowledge Assessment in Nursing (EKAN) is an objective measure of evidence-based practice (EBP) knowledge. The aims of the project were to translate the EKAN instrument into Brazilian Portuguese, test its psychometric properties, and document a baseline assessment of students’ EBP knowledge. Method This study used methodological design. The EKAN-Brazilian Portuguese was administered to nursing students from two baccalaureate programs. Data were analyzed using Rasch procedures. Results 123 students participated (87% ranged 19-25 years old; 60% were juniors; 38% perceived having no exposure to EBP). Validity indices showed the mean difficulty index = -2.48 to 2.07, the Infit (WMS) mean was.985 (SD = 2.13), and the Outfit (UMS) mean was.975 (SD = 0.17). Reliability indices showed sufficient item separation index (4.47); moderate person separation index (.47); high item reliability (.95); and low person reliability (.18). The mean EKAN sum score (max = 20) was 7.6 (SD = 2.13). Conclusion This study on the EKAN-Brazilian Portuguese version provided sufficient evidence for validity and reliability; the person reliabilities showed the need for improvement in incorporating EBP concepts and content in nursing programs.
Establishment of Indicatory Metals for Filterable and Condensable PM2.5 Emitted from Important Stationary Emission Sources

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

This study investigated indicatory metals in the filterable (FPM2.5) and condensable (CPM) particulate matter emitted from six different types of stationary stacks (based on fuels and raw materials, n = 33), namely, coal boiler (COL), heavy oil boiler (HOL), wood boiler (WOD), diesel boiler (DSL), natural gas boiler (NGS), and incinerator (INR). FPM2.5 and CPM samples were collected following U.S. EPA Method 201A and Method 202, respectively. The samples were analyzed for mass concentrations and metal compositions. Results showed that the concentration of CPM was higher than that of the FPM2.5 for all types of stacks except WOD. Comparability analysis of FPM2.5, CPM, and TPM2.5 (FPM2.5 + CPM) metal profiles assessed by using the coefficient of divergence (COD) showed a heterogeneous (COD = 0.32–0.99) relationship among six groups of emission stacks. However, FPM2.5, CPM, and TPM2.5 metal profiles within a group of stack revealed homogeneous (COD = 0.19) to heterogeneous (COD = 0.79) relations. Indicatory metals for COL were found to be Ca, Ba, V (FPM2.5), Se, Cd, and Co (CPM) and V, Se, and Co (TPM2.5). Similarly, indicatory metals for HOL included Ca, V, Ni (FPM2.5), V, Se, and Cd (CPM) and V, Co, and As (TPM2.5). Ca, Ni, Ba (FPM2.5), Se, V, and Cd (CPM) and V, Cd, and As (TPM2.5) were recognized as indicatory metals for WOD boilers. Similarly, K and Ca were found to be indicatory metals for DSL, NGS, and INR. The indicatory metals for different emission sources and for different particle fractions (FPM2.5 and CPM) reflect the differences in fuel types, combustion temperatures, and particle formation mechanisms. The results of the present study are expected to provide valuable information for source apportionment modeling and to better assess the contributions of the aforementioned emission sources to the ambient concentrations of PM2.5 and metal elements.
Preparation of Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae Antigen for the Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay

Field: Immunology and Microbiology (Life Sciences)

Growth agglutination (GA) has been used for detecting the antibodies to swine erysipelas. However, it often takes much time to judge, with additional inconveniences entailed using live cells from the Marienfelde strain, a virulent strain of Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae.In this experiment, the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used for the detection of the antibodies and examination for several kinds of cell components antigens.Three antigens with highly specific reactivity in ELISA were selected for measuring the antibodies to E. rhusiopathiae. They were ultrasonicated antigen, EDTA treated antigen and alkaline extracted antigen.Each antigen showed the cut-off absorbency for positive serum, which was the mean absorbency of antibody negative sera, and three times the standard deviation. The values are 0.419 in ultrasonicated antigen, 0.337 in EDTA treated antigen and 0.693 in alkaline extracted antigen, respectively. Ultrasonicated antigen and EDTA treated antigen had a definite correlation between ELISA antibody and GA antibody titers.These result suggest that the ultrasonicated antigen is useful for detecting the antibodies to swine erysipelas.
Therapeutic Plasma Exchange in Critical Care Medicine

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) is the automated removal of a patient’s plasma and replacement (exchange) with a suitable alternative fluid such as a solution containing albumin or fresh frozen plasma. Its intended use is for depletion of pathogenic large molecular weight substances (&gt;30-50,000 Daltons) present in blood plasma, and/or replacement of depleted normal/beneficial substances. Smaller molecular weight compounds are not efficiently removed by TPE, but may be effectively removed by alternative extracorporeal techniques such as hemofiltration (&lt;20-30,000 Daltons) or dialysis (&lt;500-600 Daltons).
Lectotypification and Taxonomic Identity of Astomum japonicum G. Roth (Pottiaceae, Bryophyta)

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Astomum japonicum G. Roth is a cleistocarpous moss species but its taxonomic placement remains uncertain because the type material has not been re-examined since being described in 1911. We have examined type specimens and selected the specimen in PC as the lectotype. Based on a morphological study of the type material, we also propose the transfer of the species to the genus Weissia Hedw.: W. japonica (G. Roth) Y. Inoue & H. Tsubota comb. nov. Taxonomic notes on W. japonica and a key to the cleistocarpous species of Weissia in Japan are also provided.
Linguatulids (Order Acarina) from Man and Other Hosts in China

Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

SummaryData are presented on four linguatulids from China. They consist of Armillifer moniliformis from the liver of man, Linguatula serrata from the lung of a rabbit, Kiricephalus pattoni from the lung of a cat, and Reighardia sternae from the lung and portal blood of Sterna fluviatilis. The worms were all nymphs. These are the first records of the group from China, save the mention of Kirocephalus pattoni from a Hongkong snake (Southwell, 1924).A single encysted nymph of Armillifer moniliformis was obtained from the liver of a Tibetan who had died in Peking of miliary tuberculosis. Diagnosis was based on sections of the worm. The specimen was particularly interesting in view of the presence of integumentary spines, whihc had not been previously reported for this genus, although they were known for closely related genera. The study of Linguatula serrata showed that the specimens were provided with the characteristic two pairs of claws arranged archwise around the mouth, and, in addition, the fundaments of the claws of the imago stage. This suggests that the nymphs were about to metamorphose into the images. The finding of the nymphal Kiricephalus pattoni in the lung of a cat provided for the first time a clue as to the intermediate host of members of this genus. The cat most likely incurred the infection from consumption of infested snake viscera. The occurrence of Reighardia sternae in the portal blood and lungs of Sterna fluviatilis, the definitive host, indicates that the nymphs were in migration from the intestine to the air sacs, where the adult worms of this species are found. The nymphs, described were for the first time, resemble the larvae, in possessing three pairs of claws, the anterior preoral pair being shed previous to metamorphosis into the imago stage. These findings support Sambon's studies on the classification and distribution of members of the family Linguatulidae.

Economic Life and Way of Life of Peasants as a Reflection of the Process of Formation of a Rural Settlement Network on the Territory of the Middle Irtysh Region in the Late 19th - Early 20th Century

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

In the process of formation of the rural settlement network of the Middle Irtysh region, several stages can be distinguished, among which an important place is occupied by the period of the late 19th - early 20th century. At this time, a large number of new rural settlements appeared on the map of the modern Omsk region, and the number of existing settlements increased significantly. The circumstances that determine this process within the designated chronological framework are of interest today in the interdisciplinary scientific field. Considering the stated problem, both objective and subjective factors should be taken into account; take into account the influence of state policy, natural and climatic, geographical, socio-economic conditions. One of the indicators of the process of formation of a rural settlement network on the territory of the Middle Irtysh region in the late 19th - early 20th century. the organization of the economic life and life of the peasants. It was they who, in many ways, determined the microclimate in the village or the need to find a new place of residence. The construction and maintenance of the railway, the availability of land, forests and pastures suitable for farming, the availability of sources of drinking water created the conditions for the emergence of new settlements in the Irtysh region. Their foundation was the result of both the resettlement of peasants from beyond the Urals, and the result of internal migration. The basis of economic life was arable farming and cattle breeding. Crafts, which directly depended on the place of residence of the peasants, played an important role in economic life. An important condition for settling in a new place was the construction of houses. The type of dwelling depended on the zone of settlement: in the steppe and forest-steppe zones, the main types of dwellings of the settlers at the first stage were dugouts, huts and booths, in the taiga regions the material for construction was wood.
Slow-Strain-Rate Stress Corrosion Testing of Aluminum Alloys

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

An extensive program of slow-strain-rate stress corrosion testing of aluminum alloys in a wide variety of susceptibility conditions and environments produced results fully consistent with the expected behavior from service experience and the results of other established test methods. Tests were conducted both on laboratory alloys in sheet form and on commercial alloys in wire, sheet, and plate forms; the systems studied included Al-Zn-Mg, Al-Zn-Mg-Cu, Al-Cu-Mg, and Al-Mg. Suitable strain rate regimes for testing, standard environments, and optimum stress corrosion susceptibility parameters were established. In general, a rate of 10−6/s was found to be appropriate for 2000 and 7000 series alloys and 10−4/s for 5000 series alloys. The most effective test environment was found to be 3% NaCl + 0.3% H2O2 for all alloys tested, and in general either relative elongation or reduction in area was the most meaningful susceptibility assessment parameter.
Micro-expression recognition based on euler video magnification and 3D residual network under imbalanced sample

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Abstract A student’s verbal behavior plays a crucial role in education, while nonverbal behavior, such as micro-expressions, significantly improves teaching quality. To address the problem of small facial expression movements, imbalanced data categories, and lack of temporal information in static expressions, a micro-expression recognition method is proposed based on Eulerian Video Magnification (EVM) and a 3D Residual Network (3D ResNet) under imbalanced samples. Firstly, face detection in the Dlib library is used to locate the face in the micro-expression video sample and crop it. Secondly, the EVM is used to magnify the motion features in micro-expressions. Then, the 3D ResNet is used to extract spatio-temporal information from micro-expression video samples, and the Cyclical Focal Loss (CFL) function is introduced in the network training process to solve the class imbalance problem in micro-expression datasets. Finally, the roles of the EVM and the CFL function in recognizing micro-expressions by the 3D ResNet are analyzed. The experimental results on the Spontaneous Micro-expression Database (SMIC) and Chinese Academy of Sciences Micro-expression Database II (CASME II) demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of this method. The proposed method can assist in teaching evaluation and promote the development of smart classrooms, and further research is needed on the storage and computing of the proposed method on devices.
Cytochrome P450 2D6 variants in a Caucasian population: allele frequencies and phenotypic consequences.

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) metabolizes many important drugs. CYP2D6 activity ranges from complete deficiency to ultrafast metabolism, depending on at least 16 different known alleles. Their frequencies were determined in 589 unrelated German volunteers and correlated with enzyme activity measured by phenotyping with dextromethorphan or debrisoquine. For genotyping, nested PCR-RFLP tests from a PCR amplificate of the entire CYP2D6 gene were developed. The frequency of the CYP2D6*1 allele coding for extensive metabolizer (EM) phenotype was .364. The alleles coding for slightly (CYP2D6*2) or moderately (*9 and *10) reduced activity (intermediate metabolizer phenotype [IM]) showed frequencies of .324, .018, and .015, respectively. By use of novel PCR tests for discrimination, CYP2D6 gene duplication alleles were found with frequencies of .005 (*1x2), .013 (*2x2), and .001 (*4x2). Frequencies of alleles with complete deficiency (poor metabolizer phenotype [PM]) were .207 (*4), .020 (*3 and *5), .009 (*6), and .001 (*7, *15, and *16). The defective CYP2D6 alleles *8, *11, *12, *13, and *14 were not found. All 41 PMs (7.0%) in this sample were explained by five mutations detected by four PCR-RFLP tests, which may suffice, together with the gene duplication test, for clinical prediction of CYP2D6 capacity. Three novel variants of known CYP2D6 alleles were discovered: *1C (T1957C), *2B (additional C2558T), and *4E (additional C2938T). Analysis of variance showed significant differences in enzymatic activity measured by the dextromethorphan metabolic ratio (MR) between carriers of EM/PM (mean MR = .006) and IM/PM (mean MR = .014) alleles and between carriers of one (mean MR = .009) and two (mean MR = .003) functional alleles. The results of this study provide a solid basis for prediction of CYP2D6 capacity, as required in drug research and routine drug treatment.

Comparative study on digital inclusion among socially vulnerable activists and leaderships of organized social movements in Brazil

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This article analyses the challenges experienced by activists with social vulnerabilities who continued their activism online or face-to-face during the pandemic, focusing especially on Black and Indigenous women. I have also studied the types of resistance found in the period between March 2020 and July 2021. On the other hand, I will analyse leaders of organized social movements – or those in the process of formalization – to understand how these leaders organized themselves in the digital world. This qualitative and quantitative research was carried out through online questionnaires and online focus groups composed by activists with social vulnerabilities and leaders of organized social movements in different parts of Brazil. Due to a long period of turmoil, social division, self-isolation and perpetual stress have become the daily norm in our country. As we faced various political conflicts and social trials, the strength of our relationships and associations allowed us to endure. This research will also follow the digital difficulties in Brazil, finding levels of partial and total digital exclusion among the analysed groups. Despite the difficulties of navigating the digital world, activists and leaders of Brazilian social movements sought alternatives through resistance and solidarity, including sharing access to the internet via cell phones. This reflection is based on the research New Forms of Representation While Facing Digital Transformation finished in December 2021 for the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung Foundation.
