AbstractObjectiveCombining the cultural‐comparative approach and the indigenous approach, the current studies aimed to develop a questionnaire for measuring sibling relationship qualities in early childhood for Chinese children.BackgroundIn China, the number of families with more than one child is growing, calling for more research on sibling interactions in the context of contemporary Chinese culture.MethodTo ensure cultural validity in this study, 40 Chinese mothers of young children were interviewed to generate specific behavioral manifestations of dimensions related to the conceptual structure of sibling relationships found in well‐established theoretical and empirical work in the literature (i.e., including the dimensions of warmth, conflict, and rivalry). These behaviors were then aggregated and developed into 22 Likert‐scale items for the Chinese questionnaire. The new questionnaire was administered to 324 parents for exploratory factor analyses, 540 parents for confirmatory factor analyses, and 50 parents to estimate test–retest reliability.ResultsComparing the 22 items with items developed in similar U.S.‐based questionnaires, we found that Chinese parents emphasized qian rang (courteous compromising among siblings) while paying little attention to respect of personal space and emotional sharing among siblings. Validity and reliability checks yielded supportive results for this new questionnaire.ConclusionsFindings regarding the different items reflected the emphasis on interdependence and restrained emotional display in Chinese culture. The new questionnaire can be used as a culturally sensitive measure of sibling relationships in China.

The prevalence, intensity and some vector dynamics of malaria in two communities of Anambra East Local Government Area LGA was carried out using standard parasitological and entomological techniques for rapid assessment of malaria infection, level of parasitaemia and morphological features of mosquitoes. Results showed an overall malaria RDT (Rapid Diagnostic Test) prevalence of 22% and community based prevalence of 13 (30%) and 22(24%) for Umuoba -Anam and Nando respectively. Overall, age related prevalence in the Anambra West LGA showed that the age bracket 35 to 42 years had the highest malaria prevalence 3(42.9 %). Overall sex related prevalence in Anambra East LGA showed no statistical significance in prevalence among males (12.0%) and females (10.0%) (P500-2000 parasites/µl) parasitaemia. There was no high parasitaemia recorded in Umuoba-Anam. Overall, a total of 225 mosquitoes were encountered with anopheles making up 61%. A hundred and twenty one (53.8% of the total mosquito population in the study was found to be unfed with blood meal whereas 54(24%) and 50 (22.2%) were freshly and previously fed respectively. One hundred and twenty one (53.8%) of the mosquitoes appeared non-gravid against 82(36.4%) that are gravid. The mosquitoes encountered were Anopheles gambiae 31(13.8%), Anopheles funestus 77(34.22%), and Culex Specie 117(52%). The two communities recorded variations in prevalence, intensity and vector dynamics. There should be intensified effort to continuously educate the masses on all the strategies of malaria prevention.

Nitrogen and phosphate fertilizer residues in the upstream of Tondano watershed have the potential to enter Lake Tondano since the water body empties into Lake Tondano thus their residues that are not absorbed by plants will cause residual impacts in the waters of Lake Tondano. The purpose of this study was to monitor the concentration of nitrogen and phosphate residues in the upstream of the Tondano watershed for a period of 8 (eight) years (2013-2020). The method of research is field observations of agricultural activities and water quality sampling carried out using the composite sampling method in the Panasen River which is the outlet of the irrigation channel upstream of the Tondano watershed. Data analysis using Spectrophotometric Method and comparing with the Quality Standard according to PP. 22/2021 Appendix VI, Class II. Results were compared with the water quality standard according to Government Regulation No. 22/2021 Appendix VI, Class II. This research showed that concentration of nitrogen residue (nitrate) 0.069-0.966 mg/l meets the quality standard (quality standard for nitrate 10 mg/l); nitrite concentration 0.001-0.61 mg/l (Quality standard nitrite 0.06 mg/l); phosphate concentration 0.084 mg/l-1.21 mg / l (phosphate quality standard 0.2 mg / l) planting season in 2013-2020. The tendency of nitrogen and phosphate residues to increase in March, June and September is the time for fertilization.

We aimed to determine whether creatine supplementation influences lower-limb muscle endurance following an acute bout of aerobic exercise (AE) in young healthy men. Using a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover design, 11 men (26.5 ± 6.2 years, body mass index 26.6 ± 2.1 kg/m2),with 12 months of experience in strength training (three times/week) and AE (two times/week) were randomized to receive creatine (20 g/day plus 20 g/day maltodextrin) and placebo (40 g/day maltodextrin) for 7 days, separated by a washout period of 14 days, before performing an acute bout of AE (30 min on treadmill at 80% baseline maximum velocity) which was followed by four sets of bilateral leg extension endurance exercise using a 10-repetition maximum protocol (10 RM)). There was a significant decrease in the number of repetitions performed in the third (Placebo: −20% vs. Creatine: −22%) and fourth set (Placebo: −22% vs. Creatine: −28%) compared with the first set (p < 0.05), with no differences between creatine and placebo. Additionally, no differences were observed between creatine and placebo for the total number of repetitions performed across all four sets (Placebo: 33.9 ± 7.0 vs. Creatine: 34.0 ± 6.9 repetitions, p = 0.97), nor for total work volume (Placebo: 3030.5 ± 1068.2 vs. Creatine: 3039.8 ± 1087.7 kg, p = 0.98). Short-term creatine supplementation has no effect on lower-limb muscle endurance following an acute bout of aerobic exercise in trained young men.

Background: Repetitive exposure to vibration has been shown to induce peripheral nerve dysfunction. Dentists are exposed to handheld vibrating tools in their daily clinical practice. Most of the studies are done in dentists who have symptoms such as paresthesia and numbness of the hands. Thus, we conducted the study to explore the effect of vibration on nerve conduction variables in apparently healthy asymptomatic dental residents. Methods: This cross-sectional study enrolled 22 dental residents and age matched 22 medical residents as controls. Nerve conduction study was performed in median and ulnar nerves of both hands. Results: Anthropometric and cardiorespiratory variables were comparable between the groups. There were no statistically significant differences between dental and medical residents in the sensory conduction variables (right median onset latency=2.05±0.27 vs 1.91±0.21, p value=0.07; right median amplitude =27.80±8.11 vs 29.55±7.04, p=0.45; right median conduction velocity = 59.54±7.05 vs 61.06±5.15, p= 0.42) and motor conduction variables (right median distal latency = 2.87±0.38 vs 2.87±0.38, p= 0.94; right median distal amplitude=10.71±2.19 vs 11.10±2.37, p=0.58; right median conduction velocity= 70.57±13.16 vs 68.53±7.73, p= 0.54) of median and ulnar nerves. Further, there was no significant difference between the dominant and non-dominant hands of dental residents. Conclusions: Hand held vibration tools did not alter nerve conduction study parameters of dental residents. Keywords: Dentists; nerve conduction study; vibration.

Elegendo como corpus a turnê Us + Them do músico Roger Waters, que passou pelo Brasil, em 2018, acumulando polêmicas em torno de seu posicionamento político, este artigo analisa os tensionamentos entre o ethos roqueiro e as especificidades dos grandes espetáculos na contemporaneidade. A partir destas discussões, propomos que a ruptura causada pelas performances de Roger Waters nos 22 dias em que esteve no Brasil visibilizou diversas disputas, negociações e reconfigurações nos afetos entre seus fãs. Analisando as rasuras performatizadas em ambientes digitais geradas pelos shows de Roger Waters no Brasil, localizamos uma crise em relação à ideia de ethos roqueiro e às expectativas em relação aos grandes shows de música. ; Choosing as a central object the Us + Them tour by musician Roger Waters, who passed through Brazil in 2018 accumulating controversies around his political position in the presentations, this article intends to analyze the tension between the rock ethos, the expectations and specificities of great shows in contemporary times and the quiproquós that arise from these arrangements. From these discussions, we propose that the rupture caused by the performances of Roger Waters in the 22 days he was in Brazil made visible several disputes, negotiations and possible reconfigurations in the affections among his fans. To the demonstrations, performed in digital environments, which we designate as erasures, we underline the attempts to boycott the artist, question his legitimacy, exempt him from responsibility and claim some authority over the show.

This thesis analyses determinants that have influence on Venture Capital (VC) activity in Europe. Majority of previous researches used Jeng and Wells (2000) model, where VC demand (Investments) and supply (Raised Fund) side were tested, this model was applied to this research as well. The panel data analysis with fixed and random effects of 22 European countries period 2008 - 2018 was used for this paper and model was improved by introducing 18 new factors together with 9 selected from previous studies. Results revealed that fixed effects model were more appropriate to use in this research. Investment model revealed 9 significant factors: positive impact with GDP, Export, Starting Business, Scientific legislation and negative with 10Y Government bonds, FDI, Internet use, Patents and Protectionism. While Fund Raised model observed 5 significant determinants: positive connection with FDI and Corruption, while negative with Science employees, Patents and Corporate Tax. In previous studies variables were categorized in three sectors: macroeconomic, entrepreneurial and technological (Prohorovs & Pavlyuk, 2013). This model was improved by combining factors into the four sectors including also institutional sector. As a result 4 hypotheses were tested. 3 hypotheses find supported: Macroeconomic, Technological and Institutional variables had an effect on VC activity in European countries. Though, 1 hypothesis was rejected: Entrepreneurial variables did not have effect on European VC activity. These results highlight the importance of Macroeconomic, Technological and Institutional variables in Europe, while selected Entrepreneurial factors did not revealed significant impact (22 486 words).
