Gait Characteristics and Deviation Factors of Backward Walking in Patients With Chronic Ankle Instability.

Despite growing applications of backward walking (BW) in assessing and rehabilitating neuromuscular conditions, its effects on gait in chronic ankle instability (CAI) remain unclear. Moreover, linking patient-reported and clinically generated measures is imperative for understanding CAI. Patients with CAI will exhibit worse and compensatory spatio-temporal and kinetic gait parameters during BW, and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) will be correlated significantly with gait parameters. Case-control study. Level 4. A total of 46 volunteers participated (23 per group). Patients filled out scales for pain, functions, and fear-avoidance beliefs before testing. All participants walked 6 times each in both forward and backward conditions, and gait was recorded using the Win-Track system. A 2-way mixed analysis of variance was performed to compare gait parameters. The relationship between PRO and gait outcomes was assessed through the Pearson product correlation coefficient. The CAI group demonstrated prolonged support and swing phases, increased walk-off angle, and plantar pressure area, but decreased step length and plantar pressure versus controls (P < 0.05). The CAI group had a smaller right walk-off angle during BW than FW; the control group showed the opposite (P < 0.05). The left single stance duration was greater in the CAI group, while the right was not (P < 0.05). PRO correlated significantly with gait parameters, particularly spatial parameters (P < 0.05). The CAI group exhibited worse gait parameters during BW. The CAI group exhibited a characteristic compensatory gait pattern. Linking the self-reported scores provides a better representation of gait changes in CAI. These results suggest that BW may be an effective strategy for identifying and evaluating CAI. It may be feasible to apply BW to the rehabilitation of CAI.

Arthritis in the Regional Cultures of the American Nations: An Overlooked Component of a Larger Unhealthy Lifestyle Syndemic

Introduction: Health indices vary widely within the United States (U.S.), with clear “belts and epicenters” where the prevalence of unhealthy lifestyle behaviors, chronic disease, and disability are all high. Arthritis is a significant, well-established risk factor for developing chronic disease. In this paper, we hypothesize that the prevalence and patterns of arthritis in the U.S. will mirror that of other leading health issues across the country. Methods: We merged county-level data on arthritis, disability, and depression prevalence, the Lifestyle Health Index (LHI), the Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) and the American Nations regional cultures schematic. Results: Data was available from 3073 U.S. counties. We found age-adjusted arthritis prevalence has statistically significant and generally strong Pearson product correlations (r ≈ 0.70, P &lt; 0.001) with (1) LHI sub scores and overall score; (2) Depression prevalence; (3) Disability prevalence; and (4) SVI. The geographic distribution of age-adjusted arthritis prevalence according to the American Nations regional cultures model demonstrated clear heterogeneity across regions. Conclusions: The status of population health in the U.S. is disconcerting and the current model of health care delivery, which is often approached from a siloed (condition-specific vs holistic care), reactionary, secondary prevention model, is inadequate to the challenge.

N/a Exploring the Relationship between Test-Anxiety, Emotional Intelligence and Academic Performance among University Students

This study was conducted to find the relationship of test-anxiety, emotional intelligence and academic performance of public private sector university students. A sample of 388 students,194 male and 194 females was drawn through convenient sampling from the Public and Private universities of Karachi in Pakistan, using a cross sectional design. Test anxiety was assessed through Westside Test Anxiety Scale and emotional intelligence was assessed using The Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale. Performance of the last two semesters attended by the students was used to assess academic performance and demographic information was gathered through the demographic form. The “Pearson Product Correlation” was calculated to find the relation between test anxiety and emotional intelligence and academic performance. t-test for independent sample was used to obtain the differences in test-anxiety and emotional intelligence and gender in Public and Private sector university students’ academic performance on the respective variables. The results revealed an inverse relationship between test-anxiety and emotional intelligence, academic performance. However, the results showed a positive relation between emotional intelligence and academic performance. Gender differences were found in test anxiety but not in emotional intelligence. The students of both the sectors differed in test anxiety, whereas both the groups did not differ on the scores of emotional intelligences. It is incumbent on educational institutes to provide psychological services to students who find hard to handle exam situation in the same way as financial assistance is provided to those who need it.

The relationship between hamstring strength tests and sprint performance in female Gaelic footballers: A correlation and linear regression analysis.

To investigate the relationships between handheld dynamometer (HHD), isokinetic and Nordic hamstrings exercise (NHE) measurements of knee flexor strength and their association with sprinting performance. Cross-sectional. The relationships between HHD (prone isometric, prone break and supine break knee flexor strength tests), isokinetic and NHE peak knee flexor strength measures were examined using Pearson product correlations on 38 female footballers. A linear regression analysis was also performed for each pair of dependent variables (10 and 30 metre sprint times) and independent predictor variables (average relative peak torque for HHD, isokinetic and NHE testing). There were good correlations between HHD tests (r = 0.81-0.90, p < 0.001, R2 = 0.65-0.82), moderate correlations between HHD and isokinetic peak torque, (r = 0.61-0.67, p < 0.001, R2 = 0.37-0.44) and poor association between the HHD peak torques and isokinetic work (r = 0.44-0.46, p = 0.005-0.007, R2 = 0.20-0.21) and average power (r = 0.39-0.45, n = 36, p = 0.006-0.019, R2 = 0.15-0.22). There was a poor association between NHE peak torque and isokinetic total work (r = 0.34, p = 0.04, R2 = 0.12). No associations between knee flexor strength and sprint times were observed (p = 0.12-0.79, r2 = 0.002-0.086). Moderate to good correlations within HHD testing and poor to moderate correlations between HHD and isokinetic testing were observed. HHD knee flexor torque assessment may be useful to regularly chart the progress of hamstring rehabilitation for female footballers. Knee flexor strength assessments were not associated with sprint times in female footballers. Other aspects of knee flexor strength and sprint performance should be investigated to assist clinicians in making return to running and sprinting decisions in this population.

The Correlation between Core Muscular Endurance, Body Composition, and Back Pain in Firefighters: An Observational Study

Firefighters are at a higher risk for experiencing back pain due to the nature of their job, but physical fitness may help to reduce this risk. Therefore, the primary purpose of this study was to determine if a correlation between subjective back pain severity and core muscular endurance exists in firefighters. A secondary purpose was to determine if age or body composition were correlated with back pain severity. This cross-sectional study was performed at a fire department during their Physical Fitness Assessment Program and included 72 male firefighters. Measures included weight, body fat percentage, maximal plank hold times for core muscular endurance, and the Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire. A Pearson product correlation analysis was performed between back pain score and each of the following variables: body fat percentage, BMI, age, and plank hold times. A second set of correlation coefficient analyses was performed between the same variables exclusively in subjects who reported back pain. This study found that, within this population of firefighters, there was no significant correlation between back pain and plank times or body composition variables, although there was a trend toward significant correlations between BMI and body fat percentage when only subjects with back pain were considered.

Taking Our Pulse: Examining 5 Years of Data from the Association of Pediatric Program Directors Research and Scholarship Learning Community

BackgroundThe Association of Pediatric Program Directors Research and Scholarship Learning Community (RSLC) prioritizes and comprehensively reviews medical education surveys directed to residency program leadership. Each survey is reviewed by two members of RSLC and the Chair and Vice Chair using a standardized scoring rubric and a limited number of surveys are accepted per cycle. MethodsInternal review data from 2015 to 2020 were analyzed to determine factors associated with survey acceptance, and for surveys accepted for distribution, determine factors associated with response rates or dissemination status. One-Way analysis of variance (ANOVA) assessed differences in evaluation scores by initial determination status. T-tests and Pearson Product Correlation assessed associations between evaluation scores and response rates by dissemination status. ResultsThe majority (47/81; 58%) of surveys submitted to RSLC are eventually accepted for distribution. Response rates for distributed surveys varied between 14% and 73%. Most (35/47; 74%) surveys distributed through RSLC are presented (62%) and/or published (60%). Higher review scores were associated with acceptance for distribution but not with response rates or dissemination status. ConclusionMost surveys are eventually accepted by RSLC for distribution and those distributed often get published or presented despite variability in response rates.

Effect of Agricultural Subsidy on Farm Income of Commercial Vegetable Farmers of Makwanpur and Dhading Districts, Nepal

Recent agricultural policies of Nepal prioritize subsidy programs. However, there has always been concern about the realistic assessment of the economic implications of subsidy programs. This study was carried out to assess the effect of agricultural subsidy on farm income in the Makwanpur and Dhading districts of Nepal. Altogether 120 households from Thaha-2 of Makwanpur and Benighat Rorang-7 of Dhading were selected using a multi-stage sampling technique. Descriptive statistical tools, correlation analysis, independent sample t-test, and multiple linear regression were used to analyse the data. Among the total sampled households, 54.17% had access to at least one agricultural subsidy program. The result revealed that farm income was the primary source of household income, contributing 64.17% to total household income. Pearson product correlation shows positive and statistically significant relation between subsidy and technology adoption, technology adoption and annual farm income, subsidy and annual farm income. The estimates of multiple regression coefficients show that subsidy had a significant (p&lt; 0.01) and positive effect on the annual farm income of commercial vegetable farmers. Also, the area under cultivation was a highly significant (p&lt;0.01) factor influencing the farm income. From the independent t-test, the annual farm income of subsidy recipients and non-recipients was found significantly different (p&lt;0.01). So, this study suggests the concerned stakeholders to identify the most needed and best-suited technologies and implement the subsidy program accordingly to boost the annual farm income of commercial vegetable farmers.

Within subject, double blind, examination of opioid sensitivity in participant-reported, observed, physiologic, and analgesic outcomes

BackgroundInter-individual differences in opioid sensitivity may underlie different opioid risk profiles but have often been researched in persons who have current or past opioid use disorder or physical dependence. This study examined how opioid sensitivity manifests across various assessments of opioid effects in a primarily opioid-naïve population. ProceduresData were harmonized from two within-subject, double-blind trials wherein healthy participants (N = 123) received placebo and 4 mg oral hydromorphone. Demographics, self-report ratings, observer ratings, physiological, and cold pressor measures were collected. Participants were categorized as being responsive or nonresponsive to the opioid dose tested and compared using mixed-models, Pearson product correlations, and paired t-tests. FindingsParticipants were 49.6% female, mean 33.0 (SD=9.3) years old, and 44.7% Black/African American and 41.5% White, with 89.4% reporting no prior exposure to opioids. Within-subject sensitivity to opioids varied depending on the measure. One in five participants did not respond subjectively to the 4 mg hydromorphone dose based on their “Drug Effects” rating. Persons who were responsive showed more evidence of drug-dependent effects than did persons who were not responsive on ratings of Bad Effects (p= .03), feeling High (p= .01), Nausea (p= .03), pupil diameter (p< 0.01), and on the circular lights task (p< 0.001). ConclusionsThis study provides initial evidence that the experience of opioids may be domain specific. Data suggest potentially clinically meaningful differences exist regarding opioid response patterns, evident following one dose among opioid inexperienced individuals.

Endogenous Ghrelin Levels and Perception of Hunger: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Ghrelin is an orexigenic hormone primarily released by the stomach and has 2 isoforms: acylated ghrelin (AG) and de-acylated ghrelin (DAG), that appear to have different functions in humans. To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the association between plasma concentrations of total ghrelin (TG), AG, and DAG and perceptions of hunger in healthy adults. The following criteria were used for inclusion: 1) sample contained adults ≥18 y of age, 2) body mass index [BMI kg/m2] was ≥18.5, 3) ghrelin was sampled through blood, 4) subjective hunger was measured on a validated scale, 5) study reported a Pearson product correlation of ghrelin or had relevant figure(s) for data extraction, 6) participants were healthy with no overt disease, 7) protocols contained no physical activity or weight loss medication that suppressed appetite, 8) interventions were conducted without environmental manipulations. Moderators assessed were age, BMI, percentage of body fat (%BF), macronutrient content of test meals, energy intake (kcals), sex, and ghrelin isoform (AG, DAG, or TG). The analysis included 47 studies (110 trials, n = 1799, age: 31.4 ± 12.0 y, BMI: 26.0 ± 4.75) and measured AG (n = 47 trials), DAG (n = 12 trials), and TG (n = 51 trials). The overall model indicated that ghrelin concentrations and perceptions of hunger were moderately correlated (r = 0.43, P < 0.001), and ghrelin isoform significantly moderated this relationship (AG: r = 0.60, P < 0.001; TG: r = 0.215, P=0.01; DAG: r = 0.53, P = 0.695). Other significant moderators included age (b = -0.02, P = 0.01), BMI (b = -0.03, P = 0.05), %BF (b=-0.03, P = 0.05), energy intake (b = 0.0003, P = 0.04), and percentage of carbohydrates of test meals (b = 0.008, P = 0.05). Ghrelin is associated with perceptions of hunger in humans, and this relationship is strengthened when AG is isolated; thus, AG may have a large impact on hunger signals in various populations. Future research should attempt to understand the role of DAG in hunger sensations.

Assessment of the relationship between housing quality and income in urbanizing city of Ado-Ekiti, Nigeria

The study focused on the connection between the standard of housing and household income in Nigeria's Ado-Ekiti. The population of Ado-Ekiti is expanding and includes a wide range of socioeconomic categories. The study adopted a primary method of data collection, respondents who are landlords or the oldest tenants were selected randomly to give answers to 1500 structural questionnaires distributed in the study area, and a total of 1311 responses were obtained. The study was categorized into three zones: Urban Core, Transitional and Peri-phery. The variables and data were captured with statistical tables. The study found out that 62% of respondents in the Urban Core earn less than the minimum wage as against 9.05 in the Peri-phery. Also, in the Core Area, 37.3%, 40.0%, 34.6%, 32.2%, 32.9% and 47.5% of roof, windows, doors, walls, floors and ceilings respectively were bad. The hypothesis formulated is that there is no significant relationship between housing quality and income level. Using Pearson Product Correlation shows that r-value (0.530) is higher than the r-tabulated r-value (0.195), this indicates that there is a strong correlation between the quality of housing and residents' income levels. The study concluded that income level and fund availability will always affect the realization of good quality housing, the study recommended that strong government intervention in housing the urban poor must be improved; development agencies and private developers should go into funding building maintenance most especially at the urban core.

Status of Socio Emotional Behavior among Preschool Children in Bangladesh

Background: Socio-emotional behavior problem is a serious health problem among pre-school children in the world. Bangladesh is no exception of this. Socio-emotional behavior problem has significantly negative impact at individual, familial and society level. There is a dearth of study regarding socio-emotional behavior among preschool children in Bangladesh. As a consequence, this study attempted to explore the status of socio-emotional behavior among preschool children in Bangladesh. Methodology: This cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted among 132 mothers having pre-school going children in the two selected schools in Bagherhat district, Bangladesh. Face to face interview was conducted for data collection by using a structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed by using Pearson product correlation, t-test and ANOVA. Results: The findings showed that the average mean of socio-emotional behavior of preschool children was 1.25. The results presented significant positive correlation of child's socio-emotional behavior with mother's age (r= .188, p=0.030), family income (r=.225, p=0.009) and number of siblings (r=.179, p=0.039) respectively. On the other hand, a significant difference of child's socio-emotional behavior with mother’s educational level (F=3.201, p=0.044), mother’s occupation (F=2.792, p=0.043), and sex of the child (t= -2.481, p=0.014) was observed. Conclusion: It can be concluded that preschool children have socio-emotional behavioral problems. Socio-emotional behavior was also significantly associated with demographic characteristics.

Adoption of digitalization tools for accounting purposes bySMEs in Tubah Sub Division

The purpose of the study was to access the adoption of digitalization tools for accounting purposes by SMEsin Tubah Sub Divsion. Research questions were answered by formulating a set of hypotheses. A quantitative approach was used. Relevant data was collected through structured questionnaire. Subjects for the study consisted of 60 business men selected from the villages that make Tubah Sub Division. The questionnaire was distributed to business men of the locality. SPSS version 26 and Microsoft Excel 2019 has been used to for data analysis. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data analysis. The statistical tools were aligned with the objective of the research. For this purpose, cluster bar charts and percentages were computed and substantively interpreted. Inferential statistics like Pearson product correlation coefficient (r) and linear regression were used to determine if there is a significant positive relationship existed between the independent variables (basic accounting software, invoicing software and business bank account) and dependent variables (accounting purposes). Analysis and interpretations were made at 0.05 level of significance. The hypotheses were tested using linear regression which gave a coefficient of determinant (adjusted R2of 0.946) indicating that 94.6% Change in accounting purposes is cause by digitalization tools. Given the fact that the probability corresponding to the F-value is 0.001, it means that we would be taking a 0.01% risk in assuming that the null hypothesis (digitalization tools does not have a significant effect on the accounting purposes of SMEs in Tubah Sub Division) is wrong. The study concluded that digitalization tools has important effect on accounting purposes. Therefore, it was recommended that SMEs should try to improve on their information technology since it is capable of contributing positively to the accounting information system.
