AIM: In this prospective longitudinal study, the physical and psychological health status of music students is assessed at the beginning of their university music study and tracked over time. Analysis strategies and interim results from the first-year cohort, including 1-year incidences, monthly prevalences, and predictors of developing musculoskeletal health complaints (MHC), are presented.
METHODS: This prospective longitudinal study is calculated to enlist a total sample of 370 participants, including musicians and non-musicians, over 5 years. Baseline measurements include a self-designed questionnaire, core strength endurance, hypermobility, finger-floor-distance, motor control, mechanosensitivity, health-related quality of life (SF36), and stress and coping inventory (SCI). The occurrence of MHC is based on monthly online questionnaires.
RESULTS: The first-year subcohort enrolled 33 music students and 30 non-music control students. The mean monthly completion rate for the questionnaire was 55.7±8.7%. At baseline, music students showed significantly more stress symptoms, reduced physical function¬ing, and increased bodily pain compared to control students. The 1-year incidence of MHC was 59% for music students and 44% for controls. Risk factors for MHC included being a music student, previous pain, reduced physical functioning, stress symptoms, reduced emotional functioning, and mechanosensitivity. Being a music student, physical functioning, sleep duration, positive thinking, and general mechanosensitivity had a predictive ability of 0.77 (ROC curve) for MHC.
CONCLUSION: A total of 63 students enrolled in the first cohort is in line with the precalculated sample size. This prospective study design enables the measurement of MHC incidence and provides insight into mechanisms in the development of MHC among music students, including the interaction of physical, psychological, and psychosocial factors.
Hypothesis/Aims of study
Many results related to the effectiveness of surgical and non-surgical proce- dures for treating urinary incontinence (UI) are reported in the literature. Following the principles of evidence based-practice, besides the interpreta- tion of study results based on statistical significance, authors should consid- er evaluating the clinical relevance of treatment effects in this field.
The minimal important difference (MID) of clinical outcomes could be used to assess the clinical relevance of interventions. MID is defined as “the small- est difference in score in the domain of interest that patients perceive as important, either beneficial or harmful, and which would lead the clinician to consider a change in the patient’s management’’[1]. One common way to obtain MID for outcomes of interest is by using anchor-based methods. These methods apply one anchor that analyzes the change in the patient's health status according to the patient’s perception.
However, MIDs should be provided according to appropriate calculations and methods and based on the definition of a MID. However, there are a lot of misconceptions and misunderstandings related to the MID. These mis- understandings have led to incorrect reports of these values. Moreover, it is still not known which criteria the authors considered during the analysis of the MID in the Women’s Health area. Therefore, with this preliminary re- port, we aimed to identify and report all anchor-based methods to estimate MIDs for outcomes measures related to UI available in the literature; and analyze which concepts and levels of improvement in the health status of the patient have been considered by the authors to calculate the MID.
Study design, materials and methods
This systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA guide- lines. The study protocol was registered in the PROSPERO database (CRD42022299686). A systematic search was performed using Ovid Med- line, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus from May to June 2021. Any study generating MIDs for UI that included women with more than 18 years, stress urinary incontinence (SUI), urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) and/ or miXed urinary incontinence (MUI) was included. The primary outcome was the MID for outcomes related to UI. No limits were applied on the data- bases for the date, language or publication range.
Studies were classified into three categories according to the level of im- provement in health status assessed by the anchor and considered by the authors during the MID calculation: 1) slight improvement: if authors in- cluded participants that evaluated their health status as “a little better” in their analysis; 2) moderate improvement: if authors considered women that reported a “better” or a “much better” status of the condition; or 3) strong imporvement: if all patients that improved (“very much better” or if authors grouped all the patients that improved in one single category) were consid- ered in one group against other group that did not report any improvement. After classifying the papers, we counted and reported how many studies were considering only the minimal level of improvement to reported the MID, according to previous definition and recommendation.
The initial electronic search resulted in a total of 1,662. After removing du- plicates (n=719), 943 were screened, and at the end of the selection stages, nine papers that reported anchor-analysis were included in this preliminary report. Seven studies included women with SUI (total sample size= 2,436), while one study included only women with UUI (n=307), and the other one evaluated women with SUI and MUI (n=288). SiX studies analyzed data and provided the MID after a non-surgical treatment of UI, while three analyzed the results after surgery to correct UI. Eleven different questionnaires to measure the patient-related outcomes related to UI with their MIDs were identified. All the tools were related to measuring the impact, distress, or quality of life of women with UI.
Different anchors were used to analyze MID, including scales that evaluated the improvement and satisfaction of the patient, and the visual analogue scale, measures of urinary leakage and questionnaires that measure the se- verity and impact of UI. The MID of siX tools was determined according to the smallest difference detected by the patients, using the Patient Global Im- pression of Improvement questionnaire and the self-reported satisfaction to assess the change of the condition. Most of the MIDs (n=28, 80%) were mis- calculated considering a moderate or a strong improvement of the patients, and not a minimal improvement as suggested by the literature (Table 1).
Interpretation of results
Although previous systematic reviews have reported the psychometric prop- erties of different questionnaires to measure UI outcomes, this is the first study to analyze methods of obtaining MIDs for UI outcomes from the pa- tients perspective (anchor based methods). All the tools with their respec- tives MIDs were related to the impact, distress, and/or quality of life of women with UI. The use of these outcomes measures is in line with the as- sociated impairments of social, psychological, financial, and sexual aspects of a women’s life produced by UI.
Most of the authors in this field did not consider the smallest difference identified by the participants to calculate the MID, which does not follow the original definition of MID proposed by Jaeschke et al.,1 This could gen- erate underestimation or over-estimation of MID, which may directly im- pact the interpretation of the findings from the clinical trials[2] and biased interpretation of the results of the clinical significance from the interven- tions used to manage female UI. Therefore, the interpretation of the clinical significance related to UI outcomes should be done with caution.
Concluding message
Few studies that aimed to calculate the MID using anchor-based methods for outcomes related to female UI were found in the literature. Eleven different questionnaires to measure the outcomes related to UI with their MIDs were identified. However, most studies had not considered the smallest change of improvement (as perceived by the patients) in their analysis, which does not follow the definition of the MID. This could impact decision making. Future research should provide clear guidelines on how to calculate, report, and interpret MIDs in this field.
Advances in high-throughput DNA sequencing have propelled research into the human microbiome and its link to metabolic health. We explore microbiome analysis methods, specifically emphasizing metabolomics, how dietary choices impact the production of microbial metabolites, providing an overview of studies examining the connection between enterotypes and diet, and thus, improvement of personalized dietary recommendations. Acetate, propionate, and butyrate constitute more than 95% of the collective pool of short-chain fatty acids. Conflicting data on acetate’s effects may result from its dynamic signaling, which can vary depending on physiological conditions and metabolic phenotypes. Human studies suggest that propionate has overall anti-obesity effects due to its well-documented chemistry, cellular signaling mechanisms, and various clinical benefits. Butyrate, similar to propionate, has the ability to reduce obesity by stimulating the release of appetite-suppressing hormones and promoting the synthesis of leptin. Tryptophan affects systemic hormone secretion, with indole stimulating the release of GLP-1, which impacts insulin secretion, appetite suppression, and gastric emptying. Bile acids, synthesized from cholesterol in the liver and subsequently modified by gut bacteria, play an essential role in the digestion and absorption of dietary fats and fat-soluble vitamins, but they also interact directly with intestinal microbiota and their metabolites. One study using statistical methods identified primarily two groupings of enterotypes Bacteroides and Ruminococcus. The Prevotella-dominated enterotype, P-type, in humans correlates with vegetarians, high-fiber and carbohydrate-rich diets, and traditional diets. Conversely, individuals who consume diets rich in animal fats and proteins, typical in Western-style diets, often exhibit the Bacteroides-dominated, B-type, enterotype. The P-type showcases efficient hydrolytic enzymes for plant fiber degradation but has limited lipid and protein fermentation capacity. Conversely, the B-type features specialized enzymes tailored for the degradation of animal-derived carbohydrates and proteins, showcasing an enhanced saccharolytic and proteolytic potential. Generally, models excel at predictions but often struggle to fully elucidate why certain substances yield varied responses. These studies provide valuable insights into the potential for personalized dietary recommendations based on enterotypes
Diet can influence healthy aging through anti- or proinflammatory effects, partly by modulating the gut microbiome composition. This study investigated the relationships between the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII), the gut microbiome, and nutritional status in elderly individuals. Methods: This cross-sectional analysis included 114 home-dwelling individuals aged over 70 years. The Energy-adjusted DII (E-DII) was calculated from 3-day food diaries, and blood samples were taken to measure micronutrient status, glucose, and lipid metabolism. Body composition was assessed using bioimpedance, and fecal gut microbiome composition was analyzed through 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The participants were categorized into maintaining an anti-inflammatory diet (AD) and a pro-inflammatory diet (PD) based on the median E-DII score. The associations of E-DII groups with blood markers and microbial diversity and composition were examined using the analysis of covariance, permutational analysis of variance, and multivariate linear models. Results: The AD (n = 57, 76 ± 3.83 years) and PD (n = 57, 75 ± 5.21 years) groups were similar in age but differed in sex distribution, with a higher proportion of females in the AD group (p = 0.02). When compared to the PD group and adjusted for sex, the AD group had a lower body mass index, fat mass, fasting insulin level, HOMA-IR (Homeostasis Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance), fasting triglycerides, and serum uric acid concentration (all p < 0.05), with higher concentrations of high-density lipoprotein, red-blood-cell folate (RBC), and Omega-3 index (all p < 0.05). While the microbial diversity and composition did not differ between the DII groups, folate concentrations were negatively associated with Agathobacter and positively associated with Bacteroides abundance (both q = 0.23). Lower uric acid concentrations were associated with a higher abundance of Bifidobacterium (q = 0.09) and lower abundance of Phocaeicola (q = 0.11). Discussion: The study suggests that following an anti-inflammatory diet is associated with improved nutritional status in the elderly. Dietary blood markers, rather than E-DII, were found to be associated with the gut microbiome, suggesting a potential link between the microbiome and changes in nutritional markers independent of diet. Further studies are needed to explore the causal relationship between dietary inflammatory potential, gut microbiome, and healthy aging.
Characterisation of pain in people with hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsy
(2017)
Hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsy (HNPP) has historically been considered a pain-free condition, though some people with HNPP also complain of pain. This study characterised persistent pain in people with HNPP. Participants provided cross-sectional demographic data, information on the presence of neurological and persistent pain symptoms, and the degree to which these interfered with daily life. The painDETECT and Central Sensitization Inventory questionnaires were used to indicate potential neuropathic, central sensitisation and musculoskeletal (nociceptive) pain mechanisms. Additionally, participants were asked if they thought that pain was related to/part of HNPP. 32/43 (74%) subjects with HNPP had persistent pain and experience this pain in the last week. Of those with pain, 24 (75%) were likely to have neuropathic pain and 27 (84%) were likely to have central sensitisation. All 32 participants felt that their pain could be related to/part of their HNPP. Significant negative impact of the pain was common. Pain characterisation identified neuropathic pain and/or central sensitisation as common, potential underlying processes. Pain may plausibly be directly related to the underlying pathophysiology of HNPP. Further consideration of including pain as a primary symptom of HNPP is warranted.
Nitrogen (N) pollution of groundwater bodies is often a result of high livestock densities combined with use of mineral N fertilisers in Northwest Germany, specifically in combination with sandy soils and high amounts of precipitation. Organic agriculture is discussed as an alternative management practice reducing nitrogen losses due to area-based livestock densities and waiving of mineral N fertilisers. A field trial with integrated ceramic suction cups over three years showed potential for reduced N loads under conventional management specifically with organic fertilisation. Now, the field trial is under transition into organic farming with promising additional benefits for drinking water quality and the great potential to develop optimised N management strategies.
Model Driven Architecture (MDA): Integration and Model Reuse for Open Source eLearning Platforms
(2005)
Every modern institution involved in higher education needs a Learning Management System (LMS) to handle learning and teaching processes. It is necessary to offer e.g. electronic lecture materials to the students for download via the internet. In some educational contexts, it is also necessary to offer internet tutorials to be able to give the students more personal support and accompany them through the whole lecture period. Many organisations have introduced commercial LMS and gained the experience that monolithic solutions do not fulfil the dynamic requirements of complex educational institutions and are very cost-intensive. Therefore, many universities face the decision to stick to their commercial LMS or to switch to a potentially more cost-effective and flexible solution, for instance by adopting available Open Source LMS. Since we have made profound experience in developing and operating an Open Source LMS, this contribution enlightens the main characteristics of this alternative. This paper describes a use case dealing with a full product lifecycle (development, deployment, use and evaluation) of an Open Source LMS at the University of Muenster (Germany). It identifies relevant instruments and aspects of system design which software architects in practical application domains should pay attention to.
Data warehouse systems have become a basic technological infrastructure in management decision making. Nevertheless, the overall utility of data warehouses remains unmeasured in most practical cases. As a consequence of this, IT-managers do not possess appropriate means to evaluate warehouse benefits in order to decide about investments in warehousing technology. This paper develops a controlling instrument for data warehouse systems based on the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) approach. On the basis of the technological aspects of data warehouse systems, the BSC perspectives are developed and populated with relevant objectives and measures for datawarehouse success. These perspectives are integrated into a consistent data warehouse scorecard. Finally, this instrument provides a holistic approach to drive the performance of data warehouse systems.
Oleamide is used as a lubricant in the manufacturing and application of polypropylene (PP) medical devices. Samples of PP were prepared with 0, 1500, and 15 000 ppm oleamide content as lubricant. The samples were either left non-sterile, sterilized with ethylene oxide (ETO), γ-radiation (γ) or autoclaved (A) and stored for up to 4 weeks. To determine the oleamide bulk-to-surface distribution depending on sterilization method and storage time an extraction method and a washing technique were applied. The oleamide content was determined by gas chromatography (GC-FID) and compared with the coefficient of friction (COF). The COF dependent on the measured lubricant content at the surface. The content of lubricant on the surface depends on the type of sterilization: ETO increased the lubricant content to some extent, γ-sterilization and autoclaving reduced it. After storage, no migration of the lubricant to the surface could be detected.
