Knowledge, attitude and practice towards malaria among symptomatic patients attending Tumbi Referral Hospital: A cross-sectional study

Plos.org 

by David Zadock Munisi, Azan A. Nyundo, Bonaventura C. Mpondo

Background

Despite significant improvement in prevention and control over the past decades malaria remains a significant public health concern in Tanzania with 93% of the population being at risk. To prevent malaria infection and promote malaria free zones, understanding the community’s knowledge, attitudes, and practices toward malaria control are essential. This study therefore aimed at determining the levels of understanding... Читать дальше...

The influence of personality traits and facets on visuo-spatial task performance and self-assessed visuo-spatial inclinations in young and older adults

Plos.org 

by Elena Carbone, Chiara Meneghetti, Erika Borella

Aims

Personality traits are suggested to influence adults’ cognitive performance, but little is known about their association with visuo-spatial competence, in terms of those visuo-spatial abilities and inclinations crucial to remaining autonomous, especially with aging. This study newly investigated whether, and to what extent, major traits and narrower facets of personality influence young and older adults’ performance in the so-called... Читать дальше...

Uric acid variability at midlife as an independent predictor of coronary heart disease and all-cause mortality

Plos.org 

by Chagai Grossman, Ehud Grossman, Uri Goldbourt

Background

Serum uric acid (SUA) has long been associated with cardiovascular disease. Variability of serum uric acid (SUA) has seldom been examined in association with long-term morbidity and mortality. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the association between SUA variability and long-term all-cause and specific-cause mortality.

Methods

Among 10,059 men, aged 40–65, tenured civil servants and municipal employees in Israel, 8822 participants who were examined in 1963... Читать дальше...

Assessing longitudinal pathways between maternal depressive symptoms, parenting self-esteem and infant temperament

Plos.org 

by Lea Takács, Filip Smolík, Samuel Putnam

Background

Previous studies of relations between parenting self-concepts, parental adjustment and child temperament have been ambiguous regarding the direction of influence; and have rarely followed families from pregnancy through the first year of life. The current study examines change and stability in maternal depressive symptoms, parenting competences and child temperament through the perinatal period until nine months postpartum.

The paradoxical relationship between emotion regulation and gambling-related cognitive biases

Plos.org

Specifically, differences in emotion regulation, impulsivity, and cognitive distortions have been identified as crucial to describe individual profiles with implications for the prevention, prognosis, and treatment of gambling disorder (GD).

Aims and method

Validity of temperature, duration, and vessel seal on 24-hour urinary hydration markers

Plos.org 

by William M. Adams, J.D. Adams, Eleni M. Karras, Erin Rysanek

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of storage temperature, duration, and storage vessel seal on 24 h urinary hydration markers. Twenty-one males (n = 8) and females (n = 13) (mean±SD; age, 24±5 y; body mass, 68.9±24.2 kg; height, 160.2±32.1 cm) without a history of renal disease or currently taking any medications or supplements known to affect the accuracy of urinary hydration markers were enrolled in this study.

Strength of socio-political attitudes moderates electrophysiological responses to perceptual anomalies

Plos.org 

by Stefan Reiss, Johannes Klackl, Travis Proulx, Eva Jonas

People with strong (vs. moderate) political attitudes have been shown to exhibit less phasic reactivity to perceptual anomalies, presumably to prevent their committed meaning systems from being challenged by novel experiences. Several researchers have proposed that (but not tested whether) firmly committed individuals also engage in more attentional suppression of anomalies, likely mediated by prestimulus alpha power. We expected participants with strong (vs. Читать дальше...

How much do we know about seabird bycatch in pelagic longline fisheries? A simulation study on the potential bias caused by the usually unobserved portion of seabird bycatch

Plos.org 

by Can Zhou, Yan Jiao, Joan Browder

Not much is known about the fleet level total seabird bycatch from pelagic longlines of United States vessels in the western North Atlantic or other fleets of the Atlantic or other oceans. Onboard observers generally only record seabird bycatch during line hauling. Seabirds are predominantly caught during the line setting stage, and, due to predation or mechanical action, those caught prior to the haul can drop off the hook and be lost to the onboard observer.
