Effects of nordic walking training on gait and exercise tolerance in male ischemic heart disease patients.

This technique-focused observational study explores the impact of a 6-week Nordic Walking (NW) program on physiological and biomechanical aspects in ischemic heart disease (IHD) patients. Twelve male IHD patients (66.2 ± 5.2years, 12.2 ± 7.5years of disease duration) were evaluated pre- and post-training for (i) gait parameters, (ii) exercise tolerance using electrocardiographic (ECG) stress test, (iii) a 6-min walk test (6MWT). The NW training, adhering to IHD patient guidelines, involved a 100-m walk at a self-selected, preferred speed without sticks, with classic NW sticks and mechatronic sticks. A mechatronic measuring system, specifically engineered for measuring, diagnosing and monitoring the patient's gait, was integrated into mechatronic sticks. Post-training, significant enhancements were observed in ECG stress test duration, metabolic equivalency, and 6MWT distance, irrespective of the stick type. However, no significant changes were noted in spatiotemporal parameters concerning the measured side, stick utilisation, or type. The results suggest that NW training boosts exercise capacity and refines gait mechanics in male IHD patients. However, the improvement in exercise capacity was not linked to changes in gait mechanics from NW training but rather to the movement during NW gait. Hence, the key to enhancing exercise capacity in IHD patients is the movement during NW gait, not the quality of gait mechanics.

Performance evaluation of particulate matter removal by surfactant foams

Surfactant foams can be repeatedly formed and ruptured, providing an extensive surface area which can be utilized for the contaminant removal. In order to mitigate the expenses associated with filter maintenance in the filter-equipped device, the particulate matter removal was attempted by the surfactant foam in this study, aiming to assess the feasibility as an alternative technology for improving air quality. Two types of particulate matter (Arizona test dust (ATD) and incense stick) and two types of surfactants (SLS-30 and LAO) were adopted to evaluate the removal efficiency of particulate matter under different surfactant concentrations (0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 wt%) and different flow systems (with and without internal airflow). Overall, ATD were better removed than incense stick due to the larger size which resulted in the greater sedimentation and subsequent contact with foams. Also, SLS-30 showed better removal performance than LAO as the surfactant concentration increased from 0.05 wt% to 0.2 wt%. These findings can be attributed to foam generation properties, in which SLS-30 demonstrated superior foam generation capabilities as the surfactant concentration increased, providing a larger surface area for PM adsorption as well as suppressing the remaining headspace in the chamber. The findings in this study presents the advantageous utilization of foams as an adsorbent for PM as well as a filling material in the limited space, thereby enabling enhanced PM removal capabilities.

Oral health in an urban slum, Nigeria: residents’ perceptions, practices and care-seeking experiences

Background/introductionOne of the key recommendations for the new WHO global strategy for oral health is inclusion of disadvantaged populations and their engagement in policy dialogues such that their needs and views are addressed in policy decisions.ObjectivesThis study explored oral health perceptions, practices and care-seeking experiences of slum residents in Ibadan, Nigeria.MethodFocus group discussions (FGD) were conducted with family health-decision makers in an urban slum site. Oral health perceptions, practices, and care-seeking experiences were discussed. FGDs were recorded, transcribed, and translated. ATLAS.ti qualitative research software was deployed for analysis using thematic analysis.ResultsSix FGD sessions, divided by gender and age, were conducted between September–October 2019, (N = total 58 participants, aged 25 to 59 years). Common dental ailments mentioned were dental pain, tooth sensitivity, bleeding gums, tooth decay, mouth odor, gum disease, and tooth fracture. Perceived causes of dental conditions included poor dental hygiene and habits, sugary diets, ignorance, and supernatural forces. Mouth cleaning was mostly done once daily using toothbrush and paste. Other cleaning tools were ground glass, wood ash, charcoal, “epa Ijebu” (a dentrifice), and “orin ata” (a type of chewing stick). Remedies for relieving dental pain included over-the-counter medicines, warm salted water, gin, tobacco (snuff/powdered), cow urine/dung, battery fluid, and various mixtures/ concoctions. Visits to the dentists were mentioned by a few but this was usually as last resort. Main barriers to accessing care from dental care facilities were unaffordability of service charges and fear of extreme treatment measures (extraction). Suggested measures to improve timely access to dental health care included reducing/subsidizing costs of treatments and medications, offering non-extraction treatment options, and oral health education programmes.ConclusionThe slum residents experience various forms of dental ailments mostly pain-related. The residents perceived formal dental clinics as unaffordable, thereby engaging in self‐care remedies and harmful oral health practices before seeking professional help. Policymakers and decision-makers may leverage this empirical evidence for the people’s education on early dental care and address challenges to affordable, available, and acceptable oral healthcare services among slum residents to improve access to care facilities.

Steady-state dynamics and discontinuity-induced sliding bifurcation of a multi-module piecewise-smooth vibration-driven system with dry friction

The vibration-driven locomotion system subject to the Coulomb dry friction is a typical multi-degree-of-freedom piecewise-smooth dynamical system with rigid-body displacement. Rather than ignoring the sticking behaviors caused by dry friction in previous studies, this paper focuses on the steady-state dynamics and the discontinuity-induced sliding bifurcations of a non-smooth three-module vibration-driven system. It is shown that the presence of sticking partially invalidates the averaging method and prevents an accurate prediction of the locomotion performance. As a result, numerical methods are employed in this research, which not only gives the distribution pattern of the average steady-state velocity with respect to the actuation phase differences but also elucidates its variation trend with respect to the actuation frequency and friction anisotropism, revealing the significance of the resonance effect and phase coordination for locomotion performance enhancement. Subsequently, this paper focuses on the stick–slip dynamics associated with the non-smooth boundaries induced by dry friction. Through comprehensive numerical calculations, we identify four different types of stick–slip motions and their distributed zones, whose boundaries are essentially the sliding bifurcation curves. Analytical expressions of these bifurcation curves are derived by means of the least-square regression, and they together constitute a bifurcation diagram for a given actuation and environment conditions. Each time a sliding bifurcation curve is traversed, the stick–slip trajectories experience qualitative changes. We also systematically reveal the evolution of the bifurcation diagram with the actuation frequency and friction anisotropism.
