A Randomized Control Trial of the Effects of a Hatha Yoga Program on Psychological Well-BeingAbstract
Hatha yoga is a common style of yoga used for physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual benefits, enhancing quality of life and well-being. The current study used a randomized control trial (RCT) to investigate whether completing an eight-week posture-based Hatha yoga program would lead to greater psychological benefits than taking part in an eight-week lecture series about the history and philosophy of yoga. Fifty-five participants (42 female, age range 18-32) completed five self-report measures both before and a [...] 814 5821 |
Preliminary Comparative Sodium Analysis of Different Tempeh Types in Indonesia and Its Benefits for HemodialysisAbstract
Hemodialysis patients require a diet rich in protein that is easily digestible, such as tempeh. Tempeh is a local Indonesian food product that can be purchased at a low price. Tempeh has a low sodium content, but there has never been an analysis related to the difference in sodium content in local Indonesian soybean tempeh products and imported soybean tempeh. This study was to compare the sodium analysis of different tempeh types in Indonesia as a preliminary study for the subsequent research to fulfill a high-pro [...] 625 3183 |
Importance of SLAPE Solar Panels, Electrochemical CO2 Reduction, Alkaline Electrolyzers and Alkaline Fuel Cells Development to Achieve United Nations Sustainable Development Goalsby
Abstract
The United Nations Organization (UNO) in the year 2015 formulated seventeen sustainable development goals (UNO’s 17 SDGs) to be achieved by the end of the year 2030. The so far achieved progress indicates that none of these UNO’s 17 SDGs can be achieved before the deadline. In fact, all these goals can be achieved by developing suitable technologies to fully capture and utilize all the renewable energy resources available on earth to meet all the energy needs of society without any backup from fossil fu [...] 961 5985 |
Bioremediation of Organic Compounds and Trace Metals from Landfill Leachate Using Lactobacillus kefiri Strains: A Sustainable Approach Based on Facultative Treatmentby
Abstract
The sustainable management of water resources is increasingly recognized as a critical component of environmental conservation and socio-economic development. Among the most challenging aspects of wastewater treatment is the effective remediation of landfill leachate, a complex and highly polluted effluent characterized by high levels of organic matter, ammonia, turbidity, and heavy metals. This study investigates an integrated treatment approach that combines chemical coagulation using aluminum sulfate with a subs [...] 690 3472 |
Annual Costs and Nursing Care Interventions to Prevent Falls Over 1 Year in a Long Term Care FacilityAbstract
Evidence shows the use of interventions to prevent falls are costly to healthcare facilities. Using a sample of older adult patients who fell at least once during the intervention year of a three-year cohort study in one long term care nursing facility, at a continuing care community providing skilled nursing and assisted living, we provide detailed evidence of the number and costs of durable medical equipment and number and type of non- durable medical nursing care interventions utilized to prevent subsequent fall [...] 803 4053 |

Netherton Syndrome in a 9-Month-Old Child: Unraveling a Complex Dermatologic Disorderby
Abstract
Netherton syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the SPINK5 gene, leading to LEKTI protein dysfunction, impaired skin barrier function, and immune dysregulation. It manifests as a triad of ichthyosiform erythroderma, trichorrhexis invaginata (bamboo hair), and atopic diathesis, often mimicking other inflammatory dermatoses. We report a 9-month-old Javanese Indonesian male infant presenting with extensive erythematous, scaly skin lesions and severe pruritus. Laboratory tests revealed [...] 632 3129 |
Health Outcomes Associated with Community Senior Center Fitness Classes: Influence of Activity Type and Baseline Physical Activity LevelAbstract
Senior centers serve as community anchors for the approximately 57.8 million older adults in the U.S., offering a range of health promotion programs, including exercise classes. This study examined how the type of exercise programs at senior centers influences older adults’ health (mental, physical, and quality of life) and how baseline physical activity levels may influence these changes as part of a statewide health promotion program evaluation in senior centers in Delaware. The exercise programs offered were bas [...] 1003 4578 |
Association of Dopamine D2 Receptor (DRD2) C939T and a Lack of Association of Tumor Necrosis Factor-β (TNF-β) +A252G Polymorphisms with Susceptibility to Migraine in A Northern Iranian PopulationAbstract
Genetic factors including TNF-β and DRD2 have been considered as essential components in the etiology of migraine. Several studies have investigated the association between TNF-β +A252G or DRD2 C939T polymorphisms and migraine risk, with debatable results. We aimed to examine whether TNF-β +A252G and DRD2 C939T polymorphisms confer genetic susceptibility to migraine in a Northern Iranian case-control sample. In total, 151 migraineurs (105 with MO 46 with MA) and 144 healthy control subjects were included in this st [...] 1289 4061 |
