Pathogenetic investigation of an outbreak of upper respiratory tract infection in a kindergarten in Baiyin City, Gansu Province

This study focuses on the cases(mainly characterized by respiratory symptoms such as cough, runny nose, fever, sore throat, and nasal congestion)of an outbreak of upper respiratory tract infections in a kindergarten in Jingyuan County, Baiyin City, Gansu Province, in May 2023. The epidemiological data were collected, and pharyngeal swab specimens were also obtained from the patients. The specimens of the research participants were subjected to respiratory multi-pathogen testing, and the positive specimens were further analyzed by sequencing the second hypervariable region (HRV2) of the G gene of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and constructing a phylogenetic tree. A total of 90 patients were collected, with an incidence rate of 22.84% (90/394), and the highest incidence was observed in the junior class group at 29.55%. Among the 17 pharyngeal swab specimens collected, 16 specimens were identified with the A subtype of respiratory syncytial virus. Sequencing analysis confirmed that it was the A subtype ON1 genotype. Based on the aforementioned testing results, it can be concluded that the current epidemic was primarily caused by infection with the A subtype of respiratory syncytial virus. Following the implementation of intervention measures, the epidemic has been effectively controlled.

Evaluation of a web-based surgical training approach and insights from the Distal Bypass Competition 2021 using a simulator kit

ObjectiveThe study aimed to assess a novel web-based surgical training approach among young vascular surgeons and validate web-based evaluation methods for assessing anastomosis skills through the online Distal Bypass Competition (DBC). MethodsThe OSATS was used to assess anastomosis proficiency using a simulator among 42 participants (17 junior and 25 senior surgeons) in the DBC 2021. An initial evaluation of basic anastomosis skills was conducted via recorded videos, comparing OSATS scores with instructor-derived impression-based scores (Comprehensive Evaluation Score [CES]) during the nomination round. Real-time evaluations conducted over Zoom focused on assessing technical and composition scores of the anastomoses to determine finalists. The ice-skating method addresses potential variability among judges by excluding the highest and lowest scores for each procedural element from the final evaluation. This method, demonstrated in real time, provides trainees with valuable feedback on which movements are highly rated, enhancing the educational impact. Evaluation criteria included precision in needlework, external appearance, handling of the intima, and internal morphology of the anastomosis. Furthermore, voluntary survey questionnaires were administered to gather participant feedback on their experience with DBC 2021. ResultsThe OSATS was associated with a lower coefficient of variation (CV) than was the CES (0.19 ± 0.07 vs 0.24 ± 0.09) (P = .01) with regard to the evaluation of basic anastomotic skills in the nomination round. Interestingly, there was no significant difference in CV between the Procedural Element Score based on OSATS and CES in the senior class (0.16 ± 0.06 vs 0.22 ± 0.09) (P = .13), but a significant difference was particularly evident in the junior class (0.12 ± 0.07 vs 0.27 ± 09) (P = .03). Lower scores were associated with higher CVs in both classes, but the OSATS improved the CV among participants who had inadequate anastomosis skills. In real-time evaluation, composition scores exhibited higher CVs compared with technical scores, even among high-scoring participants. Notably, the internal morphology of the anastomosis had the largest CV in the composition scores. The ice-skating method decreased the CV as compared with the original data evaluated using the OSATS (0.15 ± 0.04 vs 0.09 ± 0.02 for the technical score [P < .01] and .18 ± 1.00 vs 0.07 ± 0.05 for the composition score [P = .03]); accordingly, the ice-skating method was more conducive to objective, real-time evaluation. The results of the post-DBC survey indicated that 89% of participants reported increased training time, and one-half of these participants indicated that their confidence in their clinical skills related to this procedure increased owing to the process of training for the DBC. ConclusionsThe OSATS yielded more detailed evaluations of anastomosis skill with a lower variability compared with the instructor's impression-based evaluation in this web-based training. Real-time evaluation methods, such as the ice-skating method, have proven to be valuable tools for the standardized assessment of web-based surgical education.

Sleep Disturbances and Emotional and Behavioral Difficulties Among Preschool-Aged Children

Sleep disturbances and mental health problems are highly comorbid and bidirectionally correlated across childhood. The association between the natural history of sleep disturbances and the transition of mental health problems has not been quantified. To examine the association between the natural history of sleep disturbances and resolved and incident emotional and behavioral difficulties (EBDs). This cohort study used data from the Shanghai Children's Health, Education and Lifestyle Evaluation-Preschool (SCHEDULE-P), a prospective and population-based longitudinal cohort study of children enrolled in preschools in Shanghai, China, from November 10 to 24, 2016. A total of 20 324 children aged 3 to 4 years were recruited from the junior class of 191 kindergartens, of whom 17 233 (84.8%) participated in the 2-year follow-up. A multilevel regression model was used to evaluate the association between the development of sleep disturbances and the occurrence of resolved and incident EBDs. The data analysis spanned from August 4, 2021, to October 31, 2023. Sleep disturbances were assessed using the Children's Sleep Habit Questionnaire; EBDs were assessed using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. Occurrence of incident and resolved EBDs at the 2-year follow-up. The cohort included 17 182 participants, with a mean (SD) age of 3.73 (0.29) years at enrollment; 52.0% were boys. The prevalence of EBDs at school entry and graduation years was 27.8% and 18.7%, respectively, while the prevalence of sleep disturbances was 41.3% and 31.5%, respectively. Among those with EBDs at the entry year, 35.0% maintained stability in the graduation year, while sleep disturbances were stable in 50.0% of those with sleep disturbances. After controlling for confounding factors, the odds ratio (OR) for resolved EBDs was lower in the incident sleep disturbance (ISD) group (OR, 0.50 [95% CI, 0.41-0.62]; P < .001) and stable sleep disturbance (SSD) group (OR, 0.47 [95% CI, 0.40-0.56]; P < .001) compared with the group with no sleep disturbances. The ORs for incident EBDs among the ISD group (OR, 2.58 [95% CI, 2.22-3.01]; P < .001) and SSD group (OR, 2.29, [95% CI, 1.98-2.64]; P < .001) were higher than among the group with no sleep disturbances. In this prospective cohort study, the natural history of sleep disturbances among preschool-aged children was associated with both resolved and incident EBDs. Routine screening and precise intervention for sleep disturbances may benefit the psychosocial well-being of this population.

Prevalence and Pattern of Traditional Bullying, Amongst Secondary School Students in Yenagoa, Nigeria

Introduction: Traditional bullying (face to face bullying, that occurs within or around the school premises) among secondary school students is a persistent global public health problem; with varying long lasting mental, physical and academic consequences, not only on the victims but also the bullies and bystanders. It is a common phenomenon that is not limited to physical harm and manifests in many forms such as, verbal, or relational aggression, social exclusion and cyber victims of bullying. Bullying is commonly embedded in power imbalances and can be a call for help from the bullies. Development of an efficient prevention and intervention strategy requires understanding of the causes (family issues, low self esteem or lack of positive role models) of traditional bullying. This study therefore, aimed to determine the prevalence and pattern oftraditional bullying among secondaryschool students in Yenagoa Local Government, Bayelsa State Nigeria, which would aid development and implementation of appropriate antibullying policies. Methods: Adescriptive cross-sectional study was conducted from September 2021to December 2021. Selection of the 1,108 students aged between 10-21years was done by a two-stage sampling technique. The 46-item Bully Survey questionnaire adapted in 2003 by Swearer et al was utilized for data collection. Quantitative data was summarised using descriptive statistics.Test of association was done using Chi-square and Fisher’s exact tests andbinomial logistic regression analysis was also done to examine associations between variables, withp-value of &lt;0.05 considered significant. Results: Prevalence rates of 40.3%, 81.3%, and 86.3% were foundfor bullying perpetration, victimization and bystander respectively. Verbal bullying such as hauling of insults was the most common form of bullying behaviourperpetrated (64.8%); with sexual bullying being the least type observed (20%). Both bullying perpetration (46.9%) and victimization (88.3%) were significantly more common among female participants, while being a bullying bystander (99.4%) was commoner among male participants.Participants from junior classes were twice as more likely to perpetrate bullying(odds ratio[OR]:2.053, confidence interval[CI]:0.896-4.705). Also, those in schools with no anti-bullying policies were 1.26times more likely to be perpetrators of bullying ([OR] 1.269; CI: 0.229-7.031). School Class (p = 0.030) and absence of anti-bullying policy (p = 0.004) were significantly associated with bullying perpetration in the studied schools. Conclusion: The prevalence of traditional bullying among secondary school students in Yenagoa was very high. Wetherefore recommended that school authorities and the government should formulate appropriate school anti-bullying policies and implement same in order to curb the menace while shielding the weak groups from being victims of bullying in school.

Analysis of Factors Influencing the Motivation of Hungarian Junior Handball Players

Study purpose. In sports, just like in everyday life, motivation plays an important role in achieving individual goals. Motivation is an individual’s decision to engage in certain activities and make various efforts to do so. Sports require a continuous, constant effort from individuals, so it is even more important here that the athlete has the necessary motivation. Without motivation, it is not possible to do sports at a high level in the long term. The aim of the study was to examine the sports motivation factors of handball players in the Hungarian junior classes. Handball is one of the most popular sports in Hungary. As a result, it can be said that, from the point of view of the long-term success of the sport, it is essential to know the factors that motivate youth athletes. Materials and methods. We collected the data required for the research using a questionnaire. The research took place in the fall of 2022, with 190 youth athletes interviewed. During our research, we established that internal and external motivational factors are equally important for Hungarian youth handball players. Results. With statistical calculations, we show a significant relationship between the athletes’ motivation and the joy caused by sports, the avoidance of disappointment caused to the environment due to the cessation of sports, and the sports results achieved. Conclusions. The results of the study will be a useful resource for those interested in the sport of handball, to better consider the motivational factors that help to understand the motivation of young athletes and which are important in order to consistently provide a high level of performance.

The effects of special exercises using aids on some physical abilities and the long jump achievement for ages 15-16

The long jump is an arena and field sport that is mostly dependent on maximal speed, explosive power, and speed power. The researchers employ novel aids in this performance, which is distinguished by a distinctive artistic performance that produces the dynamic style of this performance. This category additionally includes the creation of training techniques based on the use of aids and scientific methodologies during the training process because of the significance of this and the reduction in the digital level. Furthermore, there is a significant disparity between the numbers registered in the long jump event and the age group of young people. This decrease might be caused by a variety of factors, including physical frailty. As a result, the researchers turned to performance-based aids to assist jumpers in training in the appropriate direction and developing physical factors. The aim of this research was to increase junior long jumpers' ability by preparing exercises with assistance. The researchers assumed that there were statistically significant variations in physical ability and accomplishment between the research samples before and post-tests. The research sample consisted of four (4) players from Baghdad governorate's premier junior class. For the research sample, which numbers (4), the researchers employed the experimental approach and cardiac tests were performed on 1/7/2022. The training curriculum was developed and implemented over a period of eight weeks, following which post-tests were administered on March 9, 2022, and the findings of the study variables were determined.

Prevalence and predictors of bullying among in-school adolescents in Nigeria

ObjectiveAs an emerging significant public health issue affecting many students globally, school bullying is a threat that should not be disregarded. While several published studies have focused on bullying in developed countries, very little is known about the prevalence and predictors of bullying in Nigeria. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and predictors of bullying in secondary schools in Edo State, Nigeria. MethodA descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with 621 in-school adolescents using a multistage random sampling technique. The 40-item Olweus Bully/Victim Questionnaire (OBVQ) was utilized for data collection. The chi-squared test, Fisher's test, and binomial logistic regression analysis were utilized to examine associations between variables at 5% level of significance. ResultsApproximately half of the respondents (51.9%) had experienced at least one type of bullying, while 173 (27.9%) reported themselves as bullies. The most common type of bullying was physical bullying in different forms (belonging taken/stolen-68.3%; kicked, pushed or locked indoor-52.2%; threatened-47.8%), while the most common location of bullying was the classroom in the absence of a teacher (75%); the perpetrators were reported by the majority (58.3%) to be classmates. Respondents in junior classes were 1.61-fold more likely to be bullied than those in senior classes (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]: 1.60; confidence interval [CI]: 1.15–2.24), those who live in rural areas were 1.75-fold more likely to be bullied than urban cities (AOR: 0.45; CI: 0.58–1.80), and those who were frequently beaten by their parents were 2.28-fold more likely to be bullies than those who were not beaten (AOR: 2.16; CI: 1.33–3.52). Furthermore, the act of bullying others was significantly associated with family monthly income (p = 0.01). ConclusionOwing to the prevalence and predictors of bullying reported in this study, we recommend that policies should be implemented in schools to protect the most affected and vulnerable groups from being victims of school bullying.

The relationships between sleep disturbances, resilience and anxiety among preschool children: A three-wave longitudinal study

ObjectiveThis study, based on a three-wave longitudinal study, aimed to examine bidirectional relationships between sleep disturbances, resilience and anxiety symptoms among preschool children. MethodsIn total, 1169 children in the junior class of preschools were investigated three times with an interval of one year, in Anhui Province, China. Children's sleep disturbances, resilience and anxiety symptoms were all assessed in the three-wave surveys. Then, 906 children at baseline (T1), 788 children in the first follow-up study (T2), and 656 children in the second follow-up study (T3) were included in the analysis. Autoregressive cross-lagged modeling analyses were performed to examine bidirectional relationships between sleep disturbances, resilience and anxiety symptoms using Mplus 8.3. ResultsThe mean age of the children was 3.6 ± 0.4 years at T1, 4.6 ± 0.4 years at T2, and 5.6 ± 0.4 years at T3, respectively. The results indicated that sleep disturbances at T1 significantly predicted anxiety symptoms at T2 (β = 0.111, P = 0.001); and sleep disturbances at T2 significantly predicted anxiety symptoms at T3 (β = 0.108, P = 0.008). Resilience only at T2 significantly predicted anxiety symptoms at T3 (β = −0.120, P = 0.002). Anxiety symptoms did not significantly predict the two variables (sleep disturbances and resilience) at any wave. ConclusionThis study suggests that more sleep disturbances are longitudinally associated with subsequent high anxiety symptoms; inversely, high resilience will alleviate subsequent anxiety symptoms. These findings highlight the importance that early screening for sleep disturbances and anxiety, and strengthening resilience are beneficial to prevent preschool children from developing higher anxiety symptoms.

Transitions in patterns of caregiver involvement before and during the COVID-19 pandemic: A latent transition analysis

This retrospective study investigated transitions in patterns of caregiver involvement before and during COVID-19 and their antecedents and consequences. A total of 504 young children (age: M ± SD = 49.92 ± 4.30 months) and their primary caregivers were recruited from the junior classes of 10 preschools in Zhengzhou City, Henan Province, China. Latent profile analysis identified three profiles characterized by (1) high levels of caregiver involvement (HCI), (2) average levels of caregiver involvement (ACI), and (3) low levels of caregiver involvement (LCI). Latent transition analysis showed that caregivers who belonged to the HCI or LCI latent status before COVID-19 tended to transition to the ACI latent status during COVID-19. Higher levels of caregiver depression contributed to a higher probability of transitioning from the HCI to the ACI latent status, while higher levels of household chaos predicted a higher probability of transitioning from the HCI to the ACI latent status and a lower probability of transitioning from the LCI to the ACI latent status. Finally, the transitions in patterns of caregiver involvement were associated with young children's approaches to learning during the pandemic.

АЛЕКСАНДР НЕВСКИЙ НА СТРАНИЦАХ ДОРЕВОЛЮЦИОННОЙ УЧЕБНОЙ ЛИТЕРАТУРЫ ДЛЯ ШКОЛЬНИКОВ: КОНСТРУИРОВАНИЕ ОБРАЗА НАЦИОНАЛЬНОГО ГЕРОЯ

The article deals with the practice of constructing the image of a national hero in the educational literature of the 19th — 20th century on the example of Prince Alexander Yaroslavich Nevsky. The object of the study is 27 manuals on Russian history for junior classes of gymnasiums and 22 for senior classes, that is, the entire content of compulsory textbooks approved by the Ministry of Public Education during the study period and included in special catalogs of educational literature. As a result of the study, the following conclusions are drawn. On the pages of textbooks for primary school, the most idealized image of Alexander Nevsky was offered, approaching an apologetic hagiographic portrait, which was achieved through an emotional impact on the reader, selective citation of sources, sometimes a certain author’s “thinking through” and direct artistic fiction concerning the character of the hero, his way of life, education, etc. In textbooks for high school, there has not been any qualitative leap either in terms of the selection of content or in terms of the depth of analysis of historical material. The text became stylistically more “adult”, but still contained many omissions and little analysis.

Neuro-Pedagogical Aspects of Forming the Professional Competence of Elementary School Teachers and Their Interaction with Students

It was found that the concept of modernization of Ukrainian education, especially primary education in the reform "New Ukrainian School", puts forward new social requirements for school education, requires the introduction of innovative learning technologies in the educational process, the basis of which is ultramodern teaching methodology, progressive didactic tools, psychological and neuro-pedagogical theories. Justified the use of innovative technologies as a means of forming professional competence, which is associated with a rejection of stereotypes in education, goes beyond existing standards of education and personal development of the student; creates new standards for personal, creative, individual focus of the teacher, allows the application of new neuro-pedagogical technologies. The most effective innovative methods of teaching and professional development of teachers of junior classes of the New Ukrainian school, created taking into account the achievements of neuro-pedagogy are highlighted, namely: game, problem-oriented, team-oriented, project-based methods, the portfolio method, information and communication technologies. Activation of cognitive activity of students, taking into account their individual neuro-didactic characteristics affecting the degree of their involvement in the educational process was investigated.

Effectiveness of Instruction with Manipulative Materials on Fourth Graders’ Geometry Learning Achievement

The concepts of geometrical figures, shape, and size are essential for learning their features, relations, and proofs. In the geometry classroom, a good teacher is expected to use the objects related to geometrical shapes for the real concept and knowledge of the figures, and to improve the learning achievement of young learners. In this context, this study aimed to compare the learning achievements obtained from using and without using manipulative materials in teaching geometry, especially in grade four, and identify students' general attitudes and feelings towards the instruction with the demonstration of the concrete objects. For this purpose, the researcher employed the Basic Experimental and Post-test Only Control Group Design to form two groups, the Experimental Group and the Control Group, having a similar level of prior knowledge and competence in geometry. Each group consisted of 13 students studying in grade four at Kapiya Secondary School, Khairahani, Chitwan, Nepal. The same achievement test was conducted for both groups after a month's intervention. The t-test was used to draw the significant deviation between the achievements. The result showed that the mean achievement of the learners who were instructed through manipulative objects was better than the achievement of the learners instructed without using them. After the test, some students from the Experimental Group were chosen for the interview to uncover their perceptions before and after the intervention. It revealed that students enjoyed the class based on learning with the manipulation of concrete objects. The study guides the mathematics teachers teaching junior classes to involve the students in the manipulation of different types of materials in geometry activities for the real concept of geometry and enhancement of learning achievement.
