Method Articles published in English and up to April 2019 were eligible to be included in the review if they examined associations between either PA or SB measures and EO in undergraduate university students. Results Thirty-five articles met the eligibility criteria. The majority of papers used self-report measures of PA and SB and were rated as demonstrating poor quality (22/35). Evidence indicated no associations with EO for overall PA, MPA, VPA, and indeterminate associations for MVPA and leisure-based screen time. Conclusion Mixed findings for PA, SB, and EO were found. Future studies should use more rigorous designs, including robust measures of relevant outcomes, to further our understanding of this area.As the population increases, energy demands continue to rise rapidly. In order to satisfy this increasing energy demand, biogas offers a potential alternative. Biogas is economically viable to be produced through anaerobic digestion (AD) from various biomass feedstocks that are readily available in Malaysia, such as food waste (FW), palm oil mill effluent (POME), garden waste (GW), landfill, sewage sludge (SS) and animal manure. This paper aims to determine the potential feedstocks for biogas production via AD based on their characteristics, methane yield, kinetic studies and economic analysis. POME and FW show the highest methane yield with biogas yields up to 0.50 L/g VS while the lowest is 0.12 L/g VS by landfill leachate. Kinetic study shows that modified Gompertz model fits most of the feedstock with R 2 up to 1 indicating that this model can be used for estimating treatment efficiencies of full-scale reactors and performing scale-up analysis. The economic analysis shows that POME has the shortest payback period (PBP), highest internal rate of return (IRR) and net present value (NPV). selleck inhibitor However, it has already been well explored, with 93% of biogas plants in Malaysia using POME as feedstock. The FW generation rate in Malaysia is approximately 15,000 tonnes per day, at the same time FW as the second place shows potential to have a PBP of 5.4 years and 13.3% IRR, which is close to the results achieved with POME. This makes FW suitable to be used as the feedstock for biogas production.Activity of parafacial neurons that control active expiration is heavily dependent on tonic and CO2/H+-dependent excitatory and inhibitory inputs from yet poorly defined sources. Contrary to the idea that CO2/H+ disinhibits parafacial expiratory neurons, the recent work of J. D. Silva et al. (Silva JD, Oliveira LM, Souza FC, Moreira TS, Takakura AC. J Neurophysiol 123 1933-1943, 2020) suggests that GABAergic raphe neurons preferentially limit expiratory activity during high CO2. Here, I discuss these findings and propose a model where GABAergic raphe neurons function as CO2/H+-dependent breaks on expiratory drive.

Sclerosing Encapsulating peritonitis (SEP) is a rare chronic fibro-inflammatory disease of the peritoneum. The aetiology can be either primary or secondary. The knowledge around this topic is poor.

Based on the report of a 64-year-old man suffering from intestinal obstruction and its management with a final diagnosis of primary SEP, herein we review the literature concerning this specific entity of primary SEP and its challenge in both diagnosis and treatment.

whereas SEP is a rare entity, imagery is helpful to make the diagnosis.

To evaluate the oldest record of a depressed individual contemplating suicide.

A directed review of ancient Egyptology literature of translations and discussion regarding a papyrus that is approximately 4,000 years old.

The content of the document is consistent with a man going through a severe depression and is contemplating suicide. However, this does not appear to be a suicide note, but more of an ancient example of 'journaling' or working through the thoughts of suicide and its possible consequences to the man's eternal life in the afterworld.

Presentation of depression, the reasons for considering suicide, and the process by which an individual works through those thoughts have not varied significantly over the past 4,000 years.

In many cases, the experimental values of the thousands of contaminants are missing. The object of the study is novel computational modelling for air pollutions. Quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) for air half-life has been built using the Monte Carlo method with applying the index of ideality of correlation (IIC). The basis of the predictive model of air half-life is the representation of the molecular structure by simplifying molecular input-line entry system (SMILES) and numerical data on the above endpoint (expressed by hours) converted to a decimal logarithm. The statistical quality of the model has been checked up with different validation metrics and is quite good. Paradoxically, the improvement of the statistical quality via the IIC for the validation set is done in detriment to the training set. The new model has performed better than those obtained previously on the same set of compounds, for the prediction of new compounds in the validation set. Some semi-quantitative indicators for the mechanistic interpretation of the model are suggested.Empirical research in bioethics has developed rapidly over the past decade, but has largely eschewed the use of technology-driven methodologies. We propose "design bioethics" as an area of conjoined theoretical and methodological innovation in the field, working across bioethics, health sciences and human-centred technological design. We demonstrate the potential of digital tools, particularly purpose-built digital games, to align with theoretical frameworks in bioethics for empirical research, integrating context, narrative and embodiment in moral decision-making. Purpose-built digital tools can engender situated engagement with bioethical questions; can achieve such engagement at scale; and can access groups traditionally under-represented in bioethics research and theory. If developed and used with appropriate rigor, tools motivated by "design bioethics" could offer unique insights into new and familiar normative and empirical issues in the field.
