Abstract

Background: The present study examined the cluster of domain-specific sedentary behaviors (SBs) and their associations with physical function among community-dwelling older adults to identify the target groups that require intervention for SBs. Methods: A total of 314 older adults who participated in a population-based cross-sectional survey and an on-site functional assessment in Matsudo City in Chiba participated in this study. Participants were asked to report the daily average of 6 domain-specific SBs. To identify the cluster of domain-specific SBs, hierarchical cluster analysis was performed using the Ward method. Analysis of covariance adjusted for sociodemographic factors, exercise habit, chronic disease, and total SB time was performed to examine the associations between each cluster and physical functional status. Results: The average age of the participants was 74.5 (5.2) years. The 4 clusters identified were leisure cluster, low cluster, work and personal computer use cluster, and television viewing cluster. The analysis of covariance adjusted for covariates showed that grip strength (P =.01), maximum walking speed (P =.03), and 1-leg standing time (P =.03) were significantly poorer in the television viewing cluster than other clusters. Conclusions: It has been concluded that the television viewing group identified as a high-risk group of physical functional decline; therefore, interventions targeting this group are needed to prevent physical functional decline.

Abstract

The paper deals with design process of a force measuring unit, which is capable to mount onto a robot or to integrate into a measuring device. The main element is a beam type load cell equipped with strain gauges in Wheatstone bridge configuration. In order to measure the force only in one direction a linear guide rail is used to lock the degrees of freedom. The unit will have a microcontroller board to process and transfer the data to a personal computer. Furthermore, the system will be capable to intervene processes thanks to the digital inputs and outputs of the electric board. The paper introduces the 3D model of the device, and its components.

4. Quality Assurance Sampling Plans in US Stockpiles for Personal Protective Equipment: A Computer Simulation to Examine Degradation Rates.

Abstract

Medical countermeasure stockpiles in the United States are designed to support healthcare workers and the public during public health emergencies; they include supplies of personal protective equipment (PPE). As part of typical PPE manufacturing processes, appropriate test methods are used to ensure that the devices provide adequate protective performance. At the time of manufacture, performance is often measured and weighed against an objective standard of quality, resulting in a pass or fail attribute being assigned to individual PPE items and thence to production lots. Incorporating periodic performance testing for stockpiled PPE can ensure that they maintain their protective qualities and integrity over time while in storage. There is an absence of guidance regarding how to design quality assurance programs for stockpiled PPE. The applicability of the Lot Quality Assurance Sampling (LQAS) approach to stockpiled PPE was examined in a previous study that compared and contrasted different sample sizes in recovering the true percentage of defective units in large lots in the LQAS framework. The current study carries this line of inquiry forward by integrating PPE degradation over time and comparing different sampling time intervals in recovering the true underlying degradation rate. The results suggest that product degradation is more easily detected when tested at shorter time intervals and for higher degradation rates. They further suggest that sampling interval groupings can be made based on the proficiency with which they recover the true underlying degradation rate. Medical countermeasure stockpiles in the United States, including supplies of personal protective equipment, are designed to support healthcare workers and the public during public health emergencies. Incorporating periodic performance testing for stockpiled PPE can ensure that they maintain their protective qualities and integrity over time while in storage. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

7. Recirculating Flow Injection Calorimetric Biosensor and Its Improved Performance Evaluation for Dichlorvos Detection.

Abstract

A novel calorimetric biosensor is developed by recirculating flow injection analysis. The biosensor consists of a peristaltic pump, two switching valves, a thermostat, an injection valve, two twin cells (a reaction cell and a reference cell), a thermopile, a data acquisition module, and a personal computer (PC). This biosensor with an improved structure can respond to reaction heat timely by placing the thermopile between the reaction and reference cells. Enzymatic reaction will be continuous when an excessive substrate is introduced into the two cells and flows circularly through them. The calorimetric biosensor has been applied successfully in dichlorvos detection by a new test method. In this method, two parameters of constant response in the zero-order reaction phase and the transition moment from zero-order reaction to first-order reaction are obtained from the progress curve of the enzymatic reaction. Under a certain initial enzyme activity derived from the transition moment, dichlorvos can be determined by comparing the difference in constant response caused by the enzymatic reaction with inhibition in the reaction cell and without inhibition in the reference cell. The performance shows a linear range of 0.01–0.5 mg/L with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 3–10% and a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.01 mg/L, as well as a detection duration of 20 min. The system is fast, can repeatedly and easily be used, and can improve automation and prevent possible input errors. It is suitable for the rapid detection of pesticides in the field.

SUMMARY In recent years, welfare equipment has been developed to support disabled children. We are developing a joystick mouse to enable computer operation by disabled children. In this study, we develop such a joystick mouse using a microcontroller. In addition we intend to improve the operability of the equipment by ensuring software-like assistance. We believe that the equipment can respond flexibly to differences in disabilities among disabled children by providing software-like assistance. The result of experiments confirm that the proposed method is effective in improving operability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
