The use of whole-body cryotherapy for increasing the stress resistance of female athletes in group types of gymnastics

Background. Representatives of complex coordination sports are most susceptible to psychoemotional stress, since they demonstrate high sports results already at a young age. The tightening of anti-doping control has significantly reduced the possibility of using pharmacological and biologically active drugs to speed up the recovery of athletes. Against this background, in sports medicine, more attention is paid to the use of non-drug methods to improve performance and recovery in athletes. Aim to study the efficiency of the introduction of whole-body cryotherapy in the training process of female athletes of complex coordination sports (for example, group gymnastics) to increase stress resistance and reduce violations of adaptation processes as a result of neuropsychiatric overstrain. Materials and methods. During the academic-training year, 22 gymnasts received six ten-day courses of whole-body cryotherapy in the ICEQUEEN cryosauna. 19 athletes were included in the control group. The studies were conducted 3 times: before the start of the procedures, after the first course of procedures, at the end of the training year. The diagnosis of nocturnal bruxism and the definition of the psychological component of health were carried out. Total and effective albumin concentrations were determined in the blood serum with the calculation of the albumin binding reserve, helper T-lymphocytes and killer T-lymphocytes with the calculation of the immunoregulatory index. Results. After one course, there was an increase in the functional activity of serum albumins, a decrease in the number of episodes of involuntary contractions of the masticatory muscles at night, and an increase in the psychological component of health according to SF-36. After six courses of cryotherapy, the functional activity of serum albumins and the initial values of the immunoregulatory index were preserved by the end of the season, and the psychological component of health according to SF-36 was increased, while these indicators decreased in the control group. There was also a decrease in the number of episodes of involuntary contractions of the masticatory muscles at night with an increase in their number in the control group of female athletes. Conclusions. Considering the obtained results, it is possible to recommend the use of whole-body cryotherapy in gymnasts during the preparatory and recovery periods of the annual training cycle in order to increase stress tolerance and prevent psychoemotional overstrain.

Exploring information systems security implications posed by BYOD for a financial services firm

This study explores information systems security implications posed by Bring Your Own Device concept in financial services firms. Thus, the findings and recommendations from this study will help financial services and other organisations to be cognisant of the importance of BYOD policy formulation. The use of BYOD has become prevalent in the workplace due to the increased dependence on the Internet and advancements in technologies. It is beneficial to the organisation in that employees buy, use and insure their own devices, thus, the organisation does not bear these costs. However, there is a huge cost to the company if the use and connection of BYODs to the company’s Information Technology infrastructure is not regulated and monitored. BYODs expose information and information systems assets to threat actors. Financial institutions handle very sensitive information, making them a target for data breach and the adoption of BYODs more hazardous. A qualitative research method was conducted with eight (8) purposefully selected participants working in the Risk, IT and Information Systems Security departments of the financial institution. Telephonic interviews were conducted in line with the national protocols of the global Corona Virus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The study revealed the absence of a BYOD policy and employees could use any number of personal devices without restrictions. Users were aware of information systems security policies and protocols because of the annual training and awareness programmes.

Stress among Emergency Health Care Workers on Nuclear or Radiation Disaster: A Preliminary State Survey.

Background: The nuclear or radiation disaster risk within the French Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes state is low (but not absent) due to its proximity to four Nuclear Power Generation Centers and two regional cancer control centers. This study aims to compare subjective stress ratings for emergency health care workers regarding nuclear and radiation disasters between two locations: at work versus at home. Materials and Methods: We distributed an anonymous online questionnaire via RedCap® to all emergency health care workers who could be involved in patient care after a nuclear or radiation disaster. It comprised 18 questions divided into three parts—theoretical knowledge and practical assessment, stress assessment, and sociodemographic criteria. Results: We analyzed 107 responses. There was a significant 11-point increase in stress levels between work and home regarding nuclear or radiation disaster risks (p = 0.01). Less than 25% of emergency health care workers surveyed benefited from annual training. Conclusion: The stress levels of emergency health care workers regarding nuclear or radiation disaster were higher at work than at home and increased without annual training. It is important to increase knowledge about these protocols and to mandate yearly training for all workers potentially involved in these disasters.

Imaging of exercise-induced spinal remodeling in elite rowers

ObjectivesAs in-vivo knowledge of training-induced remodeling of intervertebral discs (IVD) is scarce, this study assessed how lumbar IVDs change as a function of long-term training in elite athletes and age-matched controls using compositional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). DesignProspective case-control study. MethodsProspectively, lumbar spines of 17 elite rowers (ERs) of the German national rowing team (mean age: 23.9 ± 3.3 years) were imaged on a clinical 3.0 T MRI scanner. ERs were imaged twice during the annual training cycle, i.e., at training intensive preseason preparations (t0) and 6 months later during post-competition recovery (t1). Controls (n = 22, mean age: 26.3 ± 1.9 years) were imaged once at corresponding time points (t0: n = 11; t1: n = 11). Segment-wise, the glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content of lumbar IVDs (n = 195) was determined using glycosaminoglycan chemical exchange saturation transfer (gagCEST). Linear mixed models were set up to assess the influence of cohort and other variables on GAG content. ResultsDuring preseason, IVD GAG values of ERs were significantly higher than those of controls (ERs(t0): 2.58 ± 0.27% (mean ± standard deviations); controls(t0): 1.43 ± 0.36%; p ≤ 0.001), while during post-competition recovery, such differences were not present anymore (ERs(t1): 2.11 ± 0.18%; controls(t1): 1.89 ± 0.24%; p = 0.362). ConclusionsProfessional elite-level rowing is transiently associated with significantly higher gagCEST values, which indicate increased lumbar IVD-GAG content and strong remodeling effects in response to training. Beyond professional rowing, core-strengthening full-body exercise may help to enhance the resilience of the lumbar spine as a potential therapeutic target in treating back pain.

THINKING OUT OF THE BOX, ENHANCING CREATIVITY AND DIVERGENT THINKING THROUGH CHESS TRAINING

Creativity is the tendency to create or recognize ideas, alternatives, or possibilities that may be useful in solving problems. It is the ability to produce work that is both novel (i.e., original, unexpected) and appropriate (i.e., adaptive concerning task constraints). This study analyzed the effect of 2-year chess training program on the creativity of school-going children. A pretest–posttest with control group design was used. The training methodology comprised Winning Moves Chess Learning Program with the demonstration board, on-the-board playing and training, chess exercise through workbooks, and working with chess software, which was carried out by trained chess coaches. Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) revealed that there was a statistically significant increase in Total Creativity observed in the experimental group compared to the control group after 2-year chess intervention and the effect size was small as assessed by Cohen’s d. It is clear that the outcome of this rigorous, yet enjoyable, training methodology was the enhanced cognitive abilities that were reflected in increased creativity scores. Improving creativity through chess intervention could lead to enhanced functioning. These increases have far-reaching benefits for academic performance and generally for life skills. Therefore, the potential educational gains of interventions are valuable and should be explored.

Fitness training as the mean of improving the physical fitness of high skilled football players

The results of physical fitness level of highly skilled football players in the preparatory and competitive periods of the annual macrocycle are presented. The study involved 34 players of Football Club “Zorya” (Lugansk city) aging from 20 to 30. In the annual cycle of football players training season 2018/2019, the training process was carried out in accordance with the current program. An experimental program was used in the first and second preparatory periods of the annual training cycle in the season 2019/2020. Insufficient efficiency of the traditional program of physical training of highly skilled football players in the preparatory and competitive periods of the annual training cycle has been established. The athlete’s training level was marked by optimal indicators of readiness only by tests that characterized the explosive strength and joint flexibility. Experimental program was developed in order to increase the efficiency of the training process of highly skilled football players. The main feature of this program was the use of three innovative methods of modern fitness training: MAX®, Tabata, HIIT. Functional classes that based on the use of step platforms were offered instead of classical aerobics classes. The results of the physical fitness testing of FC “Zorya” football players at the end of the preparatory periods of the 2019/2020 season indicated a significantly better level of athlete’s readiness for the next competitive periods comparing to the corresponding periods of the previous season. Experimental program effectiveness was confirmed by the results of the FC “Zorya” team in the championship of the Ukrainian Premier League 2019/2020.

Effect of Seasonal Variation during Annual Cyclist Training on Somatic Function, White Blood Cells Composition, Immunological System, Selected Hormones and Their Interaction with Irisin.

The aim of this study was to evaluate somatic, hormonal and immunological changes during the macrocycle of cyclists (9 well-trained men, age 25.6 ± 5.2 years and body weight 72.4 ± 7.35 kg). During the training macrocycle, four exercise control tests were carried out, and biochemical markers were measured in the laboratory. Seasonal training changes did not significantly disturb resting somatic and functional parameters, physical capacity (VO2max), body weight, the number of leukocytes and selected hormones. The secretory system of the organism did not respond significantly to the exercise stress in the training process, even with the increasing share of anaerobic processes in the subsequent periods of the macrocycle. Irisin and other parameters globally did not correlate with training volume. Irisin showed a significant correlation only with cortisol in the first period and human growth hormone in the second, and it showed a weak correlation in the third period with body mass and BMI. The lack of interactions between irisin level and other variables practically excludes its use in monitoring cyclist training. Future research would be complemented by the assessment of stress and postexercise changes in the cyclists’ macrocycle and expanding the research group to other athletes, including women.

Comparison of an athlete training for 400m hurdles - Case report

Introduction: The 400 m hurdles run is considered to be a demanding discipline from both a physical and psychological point of view, as it involves coordination skills within an intense duration of activity. To determine the range of general and special training indicators and what impact they had on the performance of the monitored racer. Objectives: The case study aims to analyze and compare two annual training cycles of a 400 m hurdles runner based on general and special training indicators and their impact on sports performance. Results: In the second season, the racer ran more acceleration and maximum speed, which contributed to the improvement of personal records. She completed a volumeof speed endurance of 18 km, which was an increase of 6 km, and she completed a special endurance of 32 km, where there was an increase of 8 km compared to the first season. The accumulated volume of kilometers of tempo endurance isapproximately the same in both monitored years. In the second season, it is possible to see an increase in the volume of general endurance by 40 km. It is also possible to record an increase in the volume of kilometers in the second season by 4 km. During the first season, the racer ran 780 kilometers and in the next season, there was an increase of 52 kilometers.Conclusion: Based on the findings, the author concluded that the 400 m hurdles run has been largely influenced by the number of units of training which influenced also the overall range of special training indicators and by the improvement of the hurdles crossing technique - maximum and acceleration speed, general, tempo, special and speed endurance.DOI: https://doi.org/10.24040/sjss.2021.7.1.4-12

Impact of comprehensive optical diagnosis training using Workgroup serrAted polypS and Polyposis classification on detection of adenoma and sessile serrated lesion.

Many interventions have been attempted to improve adenoma detection rate (ADR) and sessile serrated lesion detection rate (SDR), and one of these interventions is educational training to recognize polyp characteristics. This study aimed to investigate the change in polyp detection rates of endoscopists before and after comprehensive training through the Gangnam-Real Time Optical Diagnosis (Gangnam-READI) program. Fifteen gastroenterologists participated in a 1-year comprehensive training program that consisted of exvivo and invivo training that encompasses knowledge and skills in endoscopic characterization of colonic polyps using the Workgroup serrAted polypS and Polyposis (WASP) classification. We evaluated the impact of the training program by comparing the overall and individual ADR and SDR 6 months before and after the training. Overall, 18,280 polyps (9337 adenomas and 855 sessile serrated lesion) were collected. The optical diagnosis training had no significant impact on the difference in ADR after training compared to before training (47.7% vs. 46.5%, P = 0.608). A tendency for a decrease in ADR variance was noted among the endoscopists after training (74.9 vs. 32.7, P = 0.121). The overall pre-training period SDR was 4.5% and showed a statistically significant increase to 5.6%, 8.0%, and 7.1% in the first and second half of the training period, and post-training period, respectively (P = 0.003). The optical diagnosis training did not decrease variance in SDR (8.9 vs. 8.8, P = 0.985). Comprehensive optical diagnosis training with WASP classification has a significant impact on increasing the overall SDR of expert endoscopists.

Developing electronic learning to deliver MR safety training in a radiotherapy department

Introduction/BackgroundMagnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is used in radiotherapy planning, and increasingly in on-treatment guidance. The potential for the MR environment to be hazardous, without stringent safe working practices, is real. Guidance suggests all workers in MRI undergo annual safety training. To facilitate a tangible MR safety program, an electronic learning module was created and evaluated. MethodsAn existing presentation, normally delivered face-to-face, was modified and questions added to test knowledge. The module was delivered and feedback collected, together with answers to the questions, over three phases to ensure deliverability, clarity, and robustness. These comprised an initial pilot phase for non-MR personnel, an evaluation phase for staff renewing annual MR safety training, and finally for new therapeutic radiographer graduates, a test-retest methodology. ResultsSeven participants took part in the initial pilot phase, followed by thirty-one in the evaluation phase. Participants included radiographers (therapeutic and diagnostic), play specialists, clinical oncologists and anaesthetists, physicists and nursing staff. Within the evaluation group, 74.2% achieved a score >80%. Incorrect responses were principally related to questions regarding expected levels of responsibility and working practices, rather than the physics of high magnetic field strengths. The test-retest phase (n = 5) followed. Mean scores prior to learning were 59%, improving to 79% following learning, with the weakest sections mirroring those highlighted within the evaluation phase. DiscussionTransferring MR safety training into an electronic format has provided a standardised, tangible tool that provides evidence of compliance with recommended guidance. ConclusionsThis work illustrates the transition of MR safety learning for radiotherapy staff from passive presentation, to an interactive teaching methodology. The e-learning module has now been implemented within the department.

Missing link between talent development and eminence: why gifted students abandon their pursuit of science

ABSTRACT Talent development in science is a national investment as it is key to enhancing national competitiveness. However, even after undergoing a 3-year training in a science gifted academy, 8.5% of South Korea’s gifted students choose to enter medical school rather than pursuing a science or technology major. By conducting in-depth interviews with five participants, this study determines why talented students who are trained to become scientists at high schools and universities change their major to medicine. The participants were high school graduates gifted in science selected by purposive sampling according to the following criteria: Individuals entered medical school immediately after graduation, majored in a STEM at university and then entered a graduate school of medicine, and have a master’s or doctoral degree in a STEM major but changed their major to becoming a doctor. This study investigates students who have lost motivation for a pure STEM career to reflect on the educational and social driving forces that would have enabled them to continue on their path to become scientists. In addition, as it examines the current controversy over these individuals’ career choices, the study has implications for the development of talent development goals from a macro perspective.

Abstract 831: State of medical and surgical oncology training in India: An infrastructural challenge to delivering high-quality cancer care

Abstract Introduction: Cancer care delivery in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is significantly influenced by the number and distribution of oncologists, which are products of the state of oncology training in those LMICs. In LMICs like India, where the number of trained oncologists is low, cancer care is often delivered by generalists, resulting in poorer outcomes. India, with a population of 1.38 billion people, was projected to have needed over 5000 oncologists in 2020. But, the Global Survey of Clinical Oncology Workforce reported only 1500 clinical oncologists here in 2018. Therefore, we sought to systematically determine and describe the current state of accredited oncology training in India. Methods: We searched, in October 2020, the databases of two major accrediting bodies, the National Medical Council (NMC) and the National Board of Examinations (NBE) to determine the total number of programs and the positions therein for the fields of medical, surgical, and gynecological oncology. We correlated our search with the current regulations from NMC and NBE. Results: Both the NMC and NBE currently offer training for 3-year specialty oncology training after 3-years of medical or surgical residency. We found India currently has a total of 166, 139, and 22 training positions for surgical, medical, and gynecological oncology respectively (Table 1). Significant variation in the number of positions exists, with a few institutions providing training to over 10 fellows, leading to concerns about the volume of training and exposure to cases. There is a clustering of training programs in major metropolitan cities. Discussion: India is currently training a highly insufficient number of clinical oncologists for its increasing cancer burden. Clustering of training programs in metropolitan cities results in a greater likelihood of trained physicians practicing in the same location. Both of these may cause greater disparities in cancer care delivery.

Analysis of Record Scores in the Clean and Its Variations in the Long-Term Training of Young Weightlifters.

Szyszka, P and Czaplicki, A. Analysis of record scores in the clean and its variations in the long-term training of young weightlifters. J Strength Cond Res 35(9): 2383-2388, 2021-The main objectives of this study were to determine the time trajectories of record scores in the clean lift (C) and its derivatives achieved by young weightlifters in a 2-year training cycle and to estimate the quantitative relationships between these scores. The study involved 17 weightlifters who were tested 7 times at 3-month intervals. The computations were based on an individual growth curve approach. The study found statistically significant increases (p < 0.05) in record scores between consecutive measurements until the last measurement for the hang clean (HC), the second to last measurement for the C, and the fourth measurement for the power clean (PC) and the hang power clean (HPC). The overall mean ratios of the record scores in the C to those in the HC, PC, and HPC were approximately constant and amounted to 0.96, 0.89, and 0.80, respectively. Statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) between individual time trajectories of record scores in the C and its derivatives were also identified in the 2 consecutive annual training macrocycles. The results suggest that the long-term analysis of record scores in the C and its derivatives can be useful in assessing athletes' sport level, in predicting their performance, and in proper exercise selection in the training of young weightlifters.

A 1-year training program in emergency medicine for physicians in Karachi, Pakistan: Evaluation of learner and program outcomes.

Pakistan has an underdeveloped and overburdened emergency care system, with most emergency departments (EDs) staffed by physicians not formally trained in emergency medicine (EM). As of January 2020, only nine Pakistani institutions were providing formal EM specialty training; therefore, a training program of shorter duration is needed in the interim. The Certification Program in Emergency Medicine (CPEM) is a 1-year training program in EM consisting of two arms: CPEM-Clinical (CPEM-C), which includes physicians from The Indus Hospital (TIH) ED, and CPEM-Didactic (CPEM-D), including physicians from EDs across Karachi. Both groups participate in weekly conferences, including didactics, small-group discussions, workshops, and journal clubs. CPEM-C learners also receive clinical mentorship from visiting international and TIH EM faculty. Both groups were assessed with preprogram, midterm, and final examinations as well as on clinical skills. Additionally, both groups provided regular feedback on program content and administration. Twenty-five of the 32 initially enrolled learners completed the program in June 2019. Scores on a matched set of 50 questions administered in the pretest and final examination improved by an average of 15.1% (p<0.005) for CPEM-C learners and 8.5% (p<0.0005) for CPEM-D learners, with 93% of learners showing improvement. Clinical evaluations of CPEM-C and CPEM-D learners during the first and fourth quarters showed an average improvement of 1.1 out of 5 (p<0.05) and 1.2 out of 9 (p<0.0005) points, respectively. Learner evaluations of the program were overall positive. CPEM demonstrated significant improvement in test scores and clinical evaluations in both program arms. Evaluations also suggested that the program was well received. These data, along with CPEM's ability to train physicians from multiple institutions using low-cost, innovative educational strategies, suggest that it may be an effective, transferable mechanism for the expedited development of EM in Pakistan and countries where EM is developing as a specialty.

This prospective study reports the design and results obtained after the EMPODaT project implementation. This project was funded by the Tempus programme of the European Commission with the objective to implement a common postgraduate programme on organ donation and transplantation (ODT) in six selected universities from Middle East/North Africa (MENA) countries (Egypt, Lebanon and Morocco). The consortium, coordinated by the University of Barcelona, included universities from Spain, Germany, Sweden and France. The first phase of the project was to perform an analysis of the current situation in the beneficiary countries, including existing training programmes on ODT, Internet connection, digital facilities and competences, training needs, and ODT activity and accreditation requirements. A total of 90 healthcare postgraduate students participated in the 1-year training programme (30 ECTS academic credits). The methodology was based on e-learning modules and face-to-face courses in English and French. Training activities were evaluated through pre- and post-tests, self-assessment activities and evaluation charts. Quality was assessed through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The project results on a reproducible and innovative international postgraduate programme, improvement of knowledge, satisfaction of the participants and confirms the need on professionalizing the activity as the cornerstone to ensure organ transplantation self-sufficiency in MENA countries.
