Introduction: Social support has been recognized as having a strong impact on health and well-being and has also been shown to have beneficial effects in a wide variety of disease states. Social support from friends, family or peers can augment the care offered in traditional healthcare settings by providing advice, encouragement and education However, there is limited research on the impact of peer-led support programs among women living with cardiovascular disease (CVD). Objective: To examine the relationship between patient activation and measures of social support among women who attended a WomenHeart: The National Coalition for Women with Heart Disease peer-led support program in their local community. We hypothesized that high levels of social support would be associated with high levels of patient activation in this study population. Methods: Participants were recruited from 50 national WomenHeart Support Network groups. A 70 item, online survey was administered and the main analytic sample for this study included 157 women. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine the association between patient activation levels (Lower activation levels: 1,2 vs higher activation levels: 3,4) and social support scores (range: lowest 8 to highest 34), adjusting for age. Results: Study participants reported high levels of social support and patient activation. Those who were at or above the median for the social support measures (indicating high levels of social support) had greater odds of high levels of patient activation (levels 3 or 4) compared to individuals reporting low levels of social support (OR 2.23 95%CI1.04, 4.76, p = 0.012). Conclusions: Results of our survey demonstrate that this group of women with coronary heart disease who regularly attended a peer-led support group and indicated a high level of social support report taking a more active role in self-management behaviors.

AbstractIt is common both crosslinguistically and specifically in Bantu languages for the prohibitive to be formed by a construction consisting of a cessative verb in collocation with a non-finite verb. This is also the case in Manda, an understudied Southern Tanzanian Bantu language. In Manda, a negative imperative is expressed by the auxiliary -kotok-, with the (lexical) meaning ‘leave (off), stop’, operating on an infinitive full verb. Intriguingly, there is variation in this construction, as -kotok- may be both formally reduced and may be used more broadly to denote non-factivity in other “non-main” (or non-standard) contexts. The aim of this study is to demonstrate that this functional and formal variation reflects a historical and ongoing process of grammaticalization along the verb-to-affix cline. Drawing on field data, the available historical data and (micro-)comparative data, this study argues that -kotok- is transforming into a more general non-main negation marker. These changes corroborate Güldemann’s hypothesis (Güldemann, Tom. 1999. The genesis of verbal negation in Bantu and its dependency on functional features of clause types. In Jean-Marie Hombert & Larry Hyman (eds.), Bantu historical linguistics, 545–587. Stanford, CA: CSLI Publications) that the salient category of non-standard secondary negative markers in Bantu is derived from constructions with an auxiliary and a non-finite verb.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to set out to define lifestyle pattern framing behavior shared by traditional food products (TFP) and organic foods (OF) consumers to identify, if possible, a generic way to facilitate development of TFP and OF production in order to pave the road for more sustainable food production and consumption. Design/methodology/approach – A convenience, non-probabilistic sample (n=800) was designed and customer survey was conducted in December 2013 in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Exploratory factor analysis and cluster analysis were performed to identify common lifestyle pattern shaping consumption of both products’ groups. Findings – TFP and OF consumption patterns are driven by common lifestyle pattern defined by concern for welfare of all people, social equality and nature; and by consumers’ belief that food is a basis of their health, while food and cooking make an important part of family life. Practical implications – This study shows that public and private promotion/marketing policies for OF and TFP need to be designed in a way that strongly emphasizes their symbolic meaning that elicits in consumers feeling of belonging to both local community and their family, and at the same time highlights the level of social responsibility of their producers. In addition, this study contributes to the body of knowledge in this area. Originality/value – No similar study has been done to date that was focussed on identifying common combination of lifestyle factors that frame and drive customers’ tendency to purchase either TFP or OF products. This study offers a unique and valuable insight into topics and values around which a generic public or private promotional strategy for the two product groups would evolve, and which will decide effectiveness of any such strategy.

Fish farming in buckets or popularly known as Budikdamber can be an alternative as a food security solution especially during the current Covid-19 pandemic. It can be a solution for community who have limited land for fish and vegetable cultivation. Budikdamber is appropriate technology that can be implemented easily at home with small cost and is able to meet the nutritional needs of the community. The work system of Budikdamber is cultivating fish and vegetables in one bucket which is simple aquaponic system (polyculture of fish and vegetables). The result of this Budikdamber can harvest two types of commodities simultaneously in the form of catfish and vegetables. Community service was carried out in Simomulyo Baru Village, Sukomanunggal District, Surabaya, in March up to April 2021. The objectives of this community service are providing information and giving training on how to use the narrow land for fish and vegetable cultivation in buckets so that people can maintain food security during this pandemic. People in Simomulyo feel the benefits of Budikdamber because of the presence of catfish as animal protein and fresh vegetables that can be harvested at the harvest time. It can economically help reduce the risk of kitchen costs and it can be a solution for food security from the local community.

The Sungai Jambu Malay society believes that the Safar Month brings curses and illness. Avoiding this, the local community does the Safar bath ritual by reading selected shurah in the Qur’an, performing ablution, praying safely, praying rejecting curses, blessings to the Prophet, Zikir, swearing the utterance that there is no god but Allah, helping each other, friendship, eating together, praying the intention to do  Safar bath with the aim to obtain safety and avoid curses in the month of Safar. This study uses a qualitative approach with ethnographic methods. The subject of the study is religious leaders and customary leaders. The techniques used in the study are non-participant observation, phone interviews and direct interviews.  The study revealed that the Sungai Jambu Malay society praying for the safety,  praying for longevity and rejecting disasters are a form of confidence in order that they saved from disasters and illness in the Safar month. Besides reading the surahs of al-Fatihah, al-Ikhlas, an-Naas and al-Falak to get a reward from Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala, doing ritual bath during the safar month for the Sungai Jambu Malay society is the purification from disasters and disease. In addition, bathing also removes odors, dust, and moisturizes the skin. However, the belief of the Sungai Jambu Malay society towards the Safar month, which brought curses and illness,  there is a gap and contrary to the valid Hadith regarding the safar month.

This paper reports the development of nanotechnology for processing vegetables (spicy and carotene-containing ones) into frozen cryoadditives – enrichers with biologically active substances (BAS), as well as natural protein health snacks containing them. An innovative method proposed for obtaining vegetable nano additives involves the use of deep processing of raw materials. The method is based on a complex effect exerted on raw materials by cryo-processing and cryomechanodestruction, making it possible not only to preserve the BAS of fresh vegetables but also to transform them into a nanostructured form in order to fully reveal the biological potential of the raw materials. The resulting nano additives made from vegetables have no analogs. The BAS mass fraction in the produced frozen cryoadditives is 3.0...3.2 times larger than that in the starting fresh raw materials. Vegetable-based cryoadditives that are used in the manufacture of snacks are not only the BAS carriers but also perform the functions of structure-forming agents, gel-forming agents, colorants, thereby making it possible to produce high-quality health products and eliminate the need for food additives. Applying the vegetable-based frozen cryoadditives enrichers with biocomponents has made it possible to devise a new generation of natural protein snacks for healthy eating. The protein base used included nano additives made from legumes (peas) and soft salt cheese, which are distinguished by a high content of complete protein and are easily digestible. The new protein-vegetable snacks differ from conventional ones in the high content of β-carotene, phenolic compounds, tannins; 100 g of the product may satisfy about 30 % of the daily protein needs. The devised snacks are a new type of natural wellness products that are made without the use of artificial food additives and are recommended for industrial production.
