Online Videogames Use and Anxiety in Children during the COVID-19 Pandemic

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Videogames use has constantly increased among children and adolescents, with uncertain consequences on their health. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of videogames use and addiction in a sample of Italian children during the COVID-19 pandemic and their association with anxiety symptoms. One hundred and sixty-two children (M/F:78/84; age range: 8–10 years; average age 9.4 ± 0.7 years) completed the Videogame Addiction Scale for Children (VASC), the Test of Anxiety and Depression (TAD) and the Children’s Anxiety Meter—State (CAM-S). Demographic variables and data on the access to electronic tools and games preferences were also collected. Overall, 96.3% of the study participants stated to have access to one or more device. They reported a low risk of videogame addiction (VASC score (mean ± SD): 46.7 ± 15.4), a moderate level of trait anxiety (TAD score (mean ± SD): 135 ± 16.8) and a low state anxiety (CAM-S score (mean ± SD): 2.2 ± 2.1). Males reported to spend more time on videogames, to perceive higher self-control and to be more influenced by reinforcement mechanisms; females described higher levels of trait anxiety. In the regression analysis, state anxiety was a predictor of videogame use and addiction (p = 0.01). Further research is needed to confirm these data and to maximize the developmentally positive effects of videogames and preventing the negative consequences.
Capital Budgeting: A 1990 Study Of Fortune 500 Company Practices

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Capital budgeting investment decisions are fertile ground for researchers because these decisions both involve the use of a large portion of a firms assets and require predictions of the future. Various techniques are used to analyze capital budgeting projects. Among these are (1) net present value (2) internal rate of return (3) payback and (40 several averaging methods. This paper seeks to determine what methods are currently used by major American firms to determine if the more theoretically correct methods are employed and how firms implement and monitor the techniques used. The authors surveyed the Fortune 500 Companies and received some surprising responses. Replies from firms indicated that most firms use the theoretically superior discounting methods when analyzing capital budgeting problems. However, almost 21% of the respondents stated that payback was their preferred method for analysis. The study further showed that payback, while popular, was used for relatively small projects. The study revealed one major area of concern which was that of review and feedback. Approximately 20% of the firms surveyed had no review mechanism and thus may be making poor decisions because of failure to adjust their models as business conditions change. In summary, the study has two surprising findings regarding capital budgeting. First, almost 21% of the responding firms used payback as the preferred method of analysis. While most of the projects where payback was applied were small, the wide acceptance of payback was surprising. Second, and perhaps of greater importance, was the failure by approximately 20% of the firms to employ a review procedure. Without such a procedure, those firms will be unable to adapt quickly to changes in the business environment.

Actomonas aquatica gen. nov., sp. nov., a marine lineage in the phylum Verrucomicrobiota with genetic potential for carbon and nitrogen fixation

Field: Immunology and Microbiology (Life Sciences)

A novel bacterial strain, designated WL0086 T , was isolated from a marine sediment sample collected in Lianyungang city, Jiangsu province, PR China. This strain showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Geminisphaera colitermitum TAV2 T (92.7 %) of the family Opitutaceae , and all the unclassified cultured and uncultured isolates with similarities >95 % were from marine environments. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile cocci with a size of 0.6–0.8 µm in diameter. Strain WL0086 T was positive for both oxidase and catalase, and grew at 20–37 °C (optimum, 28 °C), with 1.5–11.0 % NaCl (w/v; optimum, 2.5–4.0 %) and at pH 5.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0). The major polar lipid profile of strain WL0086 T consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, and phosphatidylcholine. The major isoprenoid quinone was menaquinone-7 and the predominant fatty acids were iso-C 14 : 0 , anteiso-C 15 : 0 , C 16 : 0 and C 16 : 1 ω 9 c . The complete genome consisted of a chromosome with 6 109 182 bp. The G+C content of genomic DNA was 64.0%. Results of phylogenomic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence and the whole genome suggested that strain WL0086 T formed a distinct clade closely neighbouring the members of the family Opitutaceae . On the basis of phylogenetic, phenotypic, and chemotaxonomic evidences, strain WL0086 T should represent a novel genus of the family Opitutaceae , for which the name Actomonas aquatica gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is WL0086 T (=MCCC 1K05844 T =JCM 34677 T =GDMCC 1.2411 T ).
Influence of ribose on adenine salvage after intense muscle contractions

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

The influence of ribose supplementation on skeletal muscle adenine salvage rates during recovery from intense contractions and subsequent muscle performance was evaluated using an adult rat perfused hindquarter preparation. Three minutes of tetanic contractions (60 tetani/min) decreased ATP content in the calf muscles by ∼50% and produced an equimolar increase in IMP. Effective recovery of muscle ATP 1 h after contractions was due to reamination of IMP via the purine nucleotide cycle and was complete in the red gastrocnemius but incomplete in the white gastrocnemius muscle section. Adenine salvage rates in recovering muscle averaged 45 ± 4, 49 ± 5, and 30 ± 3 nmol · h −1 · g −1 for plantaris, red gastrocnemius, and white gastrocnemius muscle, respectively, which were not different from values in corresponding nonstimulated muscle sections. Adenine salvage rates increased five- to sevenfold by perfusion with ∼4 mM ribose (212 ± 17, 192 ± 9, and 215 ± 14 nmol · h −1 · g −1 in resting muscle sections, respectively). These high rates were sustained in recovering muscle, except for a small (∼20%) but significant ( P < 0.001) decrease in the white gastrocnemius muscle. Ribose supplementation did not affect subsequent muscle force production after 60 min of recovery. These data indicate that adenine salvage rates were essentially unaltered during recovery from intense contractions.
Cytomorphological behaviour of primary trisomics in pearl millet (Pennisetum americanum (L.) Leeke).

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The desynaptic plant showed univalents ranging from 0 to 13 at diakinesis and metaphase I. In triploid plant 36 per cent of the cells showed eight chromosomes separating to one pole at anaphase I. The morphology, cytology and sterility studies were conducted in all the trisomics isolated. All the primary trisomics showed 6II+1III or 7II+1I at diakinesis and metaphase I. The frequency of trivalents was reduced at metaphase I. The trivalent resumed in chain of 3, V-, Y-, frying pan, S-, J- and 4-shape configurations. Based on cytomorphological distinction, the 16 trisomics were grouped in five classes as bushy, awned, slender, dark green and tiny.

Of the 422 articles obtained, there were 64 potentially relevant articles, ten of which met the inclusion criteria. presented with three themes of baby sleep quality, baby development, infantile colic. Conclusion: from several articles obtained during the search, it was found that baby massage can improve the quality and duration of baby sleep. In addition, baby massage is also one of the colic treatments experienced by babies.
Formation of Structural-Phase State and Elastic and Durometric Properties of Biocompatible Cold-Rolled Titanium Ti–Nb–Zr-Based Alloys during Aging

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

The methods of scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and microindentation are used to study the effect of alloying with zirconium (within 3 to 6 at %) and complex Zr + Sn and Zr + Sn + Ta additions on the evolution of the structure, phase composition, and properties (effective modulus of elasticity, hardness, and wear-resistance parameters) of quenched biocompatible β-titanium (at %) Ti–6% Nb–% Zr, Ti–6% Nb–% Zr, Ti–6% Nb–% Zr, Ti–6% Nb–% Zr–% Sn, and Ti–6% Nb–% Zr–% Sn–0.7Ta alloys during aging (at 400°C for 4, 16, and 64 h) after multipass cold rolling with a total degree of strain of 85%. As compared to the quenching, the cold rolling of the studied Ti–b–r alloys is shown to suppress the occurrence of the β → ω transformation in the course of aging and to favor the acceleration of the decomposition of β solid solution with the formation of nonequilibrium αl phase in the course of aging. The increase in the zirconium content from 3 to 6 at % in the cold-rolled ternary Ti–6% Nb –х% Zr alloys and introduction of complex Zr + Sn and Zr + Sn + Ta additions to the Ti–6% Nb alloy instead of only zirconium addition hinder the decomposition processes of the β phase during aging; this impacts the intensity of variations of the effective modulus of elasticity and microhardness. The aging of the cold-rolled alloys under study was found to allows us to obtain the higher values of the parameters H/Er and (Н is the hardness and Er is the resolved modulus of elasticity) associated with the wear resistance as compared to those for the widely used medical Ti–Al–V alloy. The compositions of the alloys and conditions of their treatment are determined, which allow us to obtain the combination of the highest-level properties.

Misconceptions in middle school life science and strategies teachers can use to change them

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Misconceptions and alternative conceptions refer to students' "conceptions that are different from those held by the scientific community" (Sungur, Tekkaya, & Geban, 2001, p. 91). All students have misconceptions due to prior experiences they have had. Students' alternative conceptions are problems for educators because they can block new learning (Sewell, 2002). Therefore, teachers play a crucial role in helping students construct new knowledge upon whatever foundation that already exists. This review of literature examines the findings of research regarding misconceptions, common misconceptions that students have in life science, and how teachers can teach difficult concepts so students are more likely to truly understand what they have learned. The author discusses recommendations for teachers and their school district.
lncRNA TUG1 as Potential Novel Biomarker for Prognosis of Cardiovascular Diseases

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Globally, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are among the leading causes of death. In light of the high prevalence and mortality of CVDs, it is imperative to understand the molecules involved in CVD pathogenesis and the signaling pathways that they initiate. This may facilitate the development of more precise and expedient diagnostic techniques, the identification of more effective prognostic molecules and the identification of potential therapeutic targets. Numerous studies have examined the role of lncRNAs, such as TUG1, in CVD pathogenesis in recent years. According to this review article, TUG1 can be considered a biomarker for predicting the prognosis of CVD.
Liquiritigenin decreases tumorigenesis by inhibiting DNMT activity and increasing BRCA1 transcriptional activity in triple-negative breast cancer

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

As a selective estrogen receptor β agonist, the natural flavonoid liquiritigenin reportedly inhibits invasiveness of breast cancer cells, but its specific role and mechanism remain largely unclear. In this study, cells from the triple negative breast cancer lines MDA-MB-231 and BT549 were incubated with different concentrations of liquiritigenin. The results indicated that low concentrations had no significant cytotoxic effect, whereas high concentrations decreased viability of both MDA-MB-231 and BT549 cells. Liquiritigenin treatment also resulted in increased apoptosis and enhanced Caspase3 activity. After liquiritigenin treatment, we observed decreased invasive and migratory capacities of cells, as well as upregulated E-cadherin and downregulated N-cadherin, vimentin, and MMP9. Interestingly, liquiritigenin increased the mRNA and protein expression of breast cancer 1 (BRCA1). It also increased p21 and growth arrest and DNA-damage-inducible 45 alpha (GADD45A) levels, accompanied by decreased cellular DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) activity and downregulation of DNMT1, DNMT3a, and DNMT3b. These findings suggest that liquiritigenin can inhibit malignant behavior of triple negative breast cancer cells by inhibiting DNMT activity and increasing BRCA1 expression and its transcriptional activity. Liquiritigenin thus may be a promising candidate for the treatment of breast cancer.
Panthenol as neuroprotectant: Study in a rat model of middle cerebral artery occlusion

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

In vivo study of neuroprotective effects of D-panthenol has been performed on a rat model of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Administration of panthenol (i.p., 200 mg/kg 24 h, 0.5 h before and 0.5 h, 24 h, 48 h after MCAO) significantly ameliorated neurological deficit 1–5 days after MCAO, reduced body weight loss and cortical damage induced by 30 min MCAO. The results are the first in vivo evidence for neuroprotective properties of D-panthenol and suggest that it has a good potential for treatment of neurological diseases.
[Insect hypersensitivity in Iceland.].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

In this article we review allergic reactions to stinging insects (hymenoptera) and biting insects (mosquitoes). We describe the first proven case of sensitization and anaphylaxis to hymenoptera in an Icelander. Yellow jackets, honeybees, paper wasps and hornets cause most sting reactions. The vespidae species were first seen in Iceland in 1973. Since that time, these insects have inhabited the island in ever increasing numbers. Symptoms range from local reactions to systemic anaphylaxis and even death. Accurate diagnosis is important as treatment with venom immunotherapy can prevent repeated reactions by at least 95%. Local reactions in children and adults and even widespread urticaria in children should not be treated with immunotherapy. Practical measures to avoid these insects and the characteristics of each species are discussed. Physicians and other health care workers must recognize the symptoms of insect sting allergy and know when to refer to an allergist for skin testing and possible immunotherapy.

Technical Note: Field Performance of the Induced Bed Reactor Anaerobic Digester

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

Anaerobic digestion utilizes naturally occurring microbial communities to anaerobically degrade substrates to high energy value biogas and stabilized residual materials. Over the past century, researchers have worked to capture and optimize the benefits of anaerobic digestion and mitigate the difficulties. One of the most significant advances in this work was the development of high rate, retained biomass anaerobic reactors enabling the relatively rapid stabilization of high strength wastes.
Military Chaplains as Agents of Peace

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Globally, where faith and political processes share the public space with indigenous populations, religious leaders of tolerant voice, who desire to transcend the conflict that often divides their peoples, are coming forward. Affirming and enabling these leaders is increasingly becoming the focus of the reconciliation efforts of peace builders, both internally and externally to existing conflict. By way of theoretical analysis and documented case studies from a number of countries, Military Chaplains as Agents of Peace considers Religious Leader Engagement (RLE) as an emerging domain that advances the cause of reconciliation via the religious peace building of chaplains: A construct that may be generalized to expeditionary, humanitarian, and domestic operational contexts. An overview of the benefits and limitations of RLE is offered and accompanied by a candid discussion of a number of the more perplexing questions related to such operational ministry: Influence Activities, Information Gathering for Intelligence Purposes, and the Protected (Non-Combatant) Status of Chaplains.
Social class, parental social class, and social mobility in psychiatric patients and general population controls

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

SYNOPSIS Previous studies have suggested that, because of the chronic and disabling nature of mental illness, psychiatric patients do not fare as well in their careers as they should do. In the present study the parental social class, the current social class and the social mobility has been compared in 2,861 male referrals to the psychiatric services in North-Eastern Scotland and 1,487 men randomly selected from the local population. Within the psychiatric sample similar comparisons have been made between diagnostic groups. In all three aspects of social class considered decade of birth was shown to be an important variable.
THE PHYSICAL PROPERTIES AND THE INFLUENTIAL FACTORS OF THE CRUDE OIL IN SANTANGHU BASIN

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

Based on the research on physical properties and the distribution characteristics of crude oil in Santanghu basin, combining the geological condition, the authors analyze the influencial factors of the physical properties of crude oil. It is shown that physical characteristics of crude oil depend not only on group compositions, but also on maturity, burial depth, preservation condition and compositional gravity differentiation. The factors of influence on density include content of saturation hydrocarbon, arocomatic hydrocarbon, resin, asphaltene and wax. Viscosity mainly depends on content of saturation hydrocarbon, arocomatic hydrocarbon and resin, not on asphltene and wax. For the change of physical properties of the crude oil in Lucaogou Formation, Niujuanhu oil field, the bigger its depth is, the higher its viscosity, which are different from other area and stratum, and it is the result of gravity differentiation of different hydrocarbons. The physical properties variation of crude oil in other area decrease as its depth increasing, mainly related to preservation condition, water leaching and oxidation, the recognition is of an importance to other areas in the research on physical property distribution characyeristics of crude oil.
Evolutionary Level Repair

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

We address the problem of game level repair, which consists of taking a designed but non-functional game level and making it functional. This might consist of ensuring the completeness of the level, reachability of objects, or other performance characteristics. The repair problem may also be constrained in that it can only make a small number of changes to the level. We investigate search-based solutions to the level repair problem, particularly using evolutionary and quality-diversity algorithms, with good results. This level repair method is applied to levels generated using a machine learning-based procedural content generation (PCGML) method that generates stylistically appropriate but frequently broken levels. This combination of PCGML for generation and search-based methods for repair shows great promise as a hybrid procedural content generation (PCG) method.
Recreational Sports Law

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This chapter discusses application of legal doctrines and defenses within recreational sport settings. Many of the concepts discussed here are very general in that they apply to an array of recreational sport settings. Some are more specific to particular recreational situations. The general concepts are introduced so that the reader appreciates the way courts apply the law across various types of recreational sports cases. The more specific concepts involve problems that are relevant, timely, and somewhat unique to particular recreational sports. Ultimately, recreational sports law is not a field of law with its own distinct legal norms. Instead, “recreational sports law” encapsulates legal applications that are more common to recreational sport cases than to others. Exposure to the contents of this chapter will provide the reader with a more nuanced understanding of those legal applications of which recreational sport providers and participants need to be the most concerned.
