5, but increased if children were male, under 11 years old, or living in low-income neighborhoods (Median household income < 25th percentile, $45,629) with high poverty rates (>20%).
African American male children from disadvantaged neighborhoods are at the highest risk for higher utilization of hospital-based care for asthma. Our findings also indicate a lower ratio of controller medications contributed to increases in ED visits and hospitalizations, suggesting suboptimal management of asthma and a lack of intervention treatment through medications among minority children.

Methods Forty-three (n = 22 male, n = 21 female) volunteers participated in the study and were tested in five different conditions (resting, watching television (TV), brisk walking, AVG dancing, and AVG fighting). Oxygen consumption (VO2) and heart rate (HR) were measured continuously, whereas energy expenditure (EE) and metabolic equivalent (MET) were calculated. Rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and enjoyment scores were recorded. Results AVG dancing and AVG fighting significantly increased VO2, MET, EE, and HR compared with brisk walking, resting, and watching TV. Comparing with brisk walking the AVG dancing yielded similar RPE and higher enjoyment scores. However, the highest physiological responses, RPE, and enjoyment scores were obtained during AVG fighting. There were significant sex x condition interactions for VO2, MET, EE, and HR. VO2, MET, and EE were significantly higher in males for all conditions, whereas HR was significantly higher in females. The mean EE values during AVG fighting and AVG dancing were 13.12 ± 2.2 kcal.min-1 and 9.69 ± 2.0 kcal.min-1, respectively in males, and 9.31 ± 1.9 kcal.min-1 and 7.07 ± 1.3 kcal.min-1, respectively in females. Conclusions AVG dancing (MET >7) and AVG fighting (MET >9) are enjoyable, vigorous physical activities that can be recommended as an alternative home-based physical activity.Lipedema is a chronic, progressive disease that almost exclusively affects women and often misdiagnosed as obesity or primary lymphedema. Research concerning lipedema is sparse, and there is a lack of studies focusing on women's experiences of living with the illness. We interviewed fourteen women with lipedema with the aim of describing their experiences of living with lipedema. Our results show that women felt controlled by their body, and were fat-shamed and viewed by others as a person who lacked character. They received unsupportive advice on how to manage from healthcare, and blamed themselves while striving to take responsibility.Participation is key to childhood development and is essential for health and well-being; yet children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) participate less in social and physical activities compared to their typically developing peers and little is known about how social and motor challenges impact participation patterns. Purpose The current research garnered experiential insights of the quality and quantity of participation, through the lens of instructors (N = 9) working with a child or children with ASD. Method Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted to capture a comprehensive and informative profile of how social and motor functioning of children with ASD influence involvement in social and physical activities. Results Thematic analysis revealed consistent viewpoints in four main areas (1) Viewpoints extend beyond the World Health Organization definition of participation; (2) Participation depends on who is involved; (3) Although motivation, confidence, and competence in social/motor domains underlie participation, social challenges were perceived as the greatest barrier; (4) While acknowledging the benefits of participation, it is necessary to be cognizant of the required supports. Throughout these themes, the notion of heterogeneity was made very clear. Conclusion Collectively, perspectives offer descriptive insight which may be useful when designing opportunities for participation in social and physical activities among children with ASD.Purpose Peripheral heart action (PHA) is a style of circuit training that alternates upper and lower body resistance exercises with minimal rest between sets. The purpose of this study was to compare the metabolic demands of PHA to traditional hypertrophy training (TRAD) and to provide between sex comparison for both types of resistance training (RT). Methods Twenty resistance-trained individuals underwent two bouts of volume-load matched RT PHA and TRAD. We measured oxygen uptake (VO2), heart rate (HR), blood lactate (BL) concentration, rating of perceived exertion (RPE), excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC), and duration of each session. Results PHA elicited significantly greater %VO2max (p less then .001), %HRmax (p less then .001), RPE (p less then .001), and EPOC (p less then .001) compared to TRAD. PHA was also completed in less time (p less then .001). Compared to TRAD, BL was significantly higher at mid-exercise (p less then .001), post-exercise (p less then .001), and 5-min post-exercise (p less then .001) during PHA. There were no between-sex differences for BL at any time-point for TRAD. However, during PHA, BL was significantly higher for males at mid-exercise (p = .04), post-exercise (p = .02), and 5-min post-exercise (p = .002). No between-sex differences were detected for HR, VO2, RPE, or duration for either style of RT. Conclusions PHA is a time-effective and metabolically demanding circuit that may lead to strength and cardiorespiratory adaptations. Males produced more BL than females during PHA, but not TRAD, suggesting that they incurred more metabolic stress during the bout of circuit training.
The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of capsiate supplementation on energy intake, self-reported appetite-related sensations, energy expenditure, fat oxidation, and autonomic parameters with and without an exercise intervention.
Thirteen healthy men completed four randomized trials two trials for the control condition (without exercise), one with capsiate supplementation (CTRL
) and one with a placebo (CTRL
), and two trials for the exercise condition, one with capsiate supplementation (EX
) and one with placebo (EX
). Exercise sessions were performed 150 min after the consumption of a standardized breakfast, and supplementation 115 min after consumption of breakfast. Selleckchem SBE-β-CD An
buffet was offered 200 min following the completion of the standardized breakfast, and energy intake (EI) and relative energy intake (REI) (relative energy intake = energy intake - energy expenditure related to exercise) were evaluated.
There were no significant effects on EI, self-reported appetite sensations, fat oxidation, and energy expenditure. REI was reduced in conditions involving EX when compared to CTRL. A low-frequency to high-frequency ratio for heart rate variability was higher in CTRL
(1.6 ± 1.1) vs. CTRL
(1.2 ± 0.9) (p = 0.025; d = 0.39).
Acute capsiate supplementation combined with aerobic exercise has limited effects on the examined variables (EI, REI, fat oxidation, energy expenditure, and autonomic parameters), while changes in the autonomic nervous system function in the absence of exercise may have occurred without influencing other variables.

Case Presentation We report a unique case of branch retinal artery occlusion that occurred 5 weeks after a relatively mild COVID-19. After excluding all systemic disorders that may have caused retinal artery occlusion and noticing an elevation in the D-dimer level, the case was considered as a late complication of the SARS-CoV-2 infection. Discussion As branch retinal artery occlusion occurred 5 weeks after COVID-19 in this case, ophthalmologists should keep in mind that late thromboembolic events which can be associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection may occur.
To evaluate clinical parameters associated with inflammation after adjunctive implantoplasty in conjunction with surgical treatment of peri-implantitis.
A systematic literature search was performed in 2 databases until 29. December 2020 to find publications that report on clinical parameters after surgical peri-implantitis treatment which included adjunctive implantoplasty. Clinical studies on implantoplasty reporting on BoP as outcome were included, but other clinical or radiographic outcomes were also considered.
The search resulted in 18 articles that fulfilled the inclusion criteria. The results indicated improvements of BoP and clinical parameters following surgical peri-implantitis treatment with adjunctive implantoplasty.
Within its limits, the findings of the present scoping review indicated that BoP is reduced following surgical peri-implantitis treatment with adjunctive implantoplasty, and that this improvement is in line with surgical peri-implantitis treatment without adjunctive implantoplasty.
Within its limits, the findings of the present scoping review indicated that BoP is reduced following surgical peri-implantitis treatment with adjunctive implantoplasty, and that this improvement is in line with surgical peri-implantitis treatment without adjunctive implantoplasty.
Researchers have investigated glaucoma drainage devices in various in vitro experimental setups to overcome their disadvantages. link2 In this study, it is aimed to perform in vitro analyses of glaucoma drainage devices that are actively utilized for glaucoma treatment.
A new in vitro experimental setup is constructed and the first outcomes of numerical simulations and experimental trials are shared. Firstly, an in vitro experimental setup is designed and simulated in ANSYS Fluent, then assembled/fabricated using microfluidic equipment. Secondly, computational fluid dynamics results are expressed as pressure losses through an Ahmed Valve implant, a Molteno drainage device, an Ex-Press implant for physiological flow rates.
In the scope of this study, Ahmed Valve (valved), Molteno (non-valved), Ex-Press (orbital shunt) implants, are examined numerically using computational fluid dynamics tools. Results are compared with in vitro studies of the proposed experimental setup. link3 Poiseuille and Reynolds numbers versus pressure drop characteristics of tested glaucoma drainage devices are also obtained using in vitro microfluidic experimental setup.
