Background Properly fitted shoes can support the development of growing feet and prevent problems and pathologies, not only in childhood, but also in adulthood. This points to the need to conduct research on the impact of shoe fitting on the structure of the foot in order to raise awareness and importance of this problem, to enable proper decisions regarding the purchase and use of shoes. The aim of this study was to analyze indoor footwear fit and its impact on foot structure in 7-year-old schoolchildren. Methods The CQ-ST podoscope and the Clevermess device were used for measurements. The analysis was carried out using the Mann Whitney U test, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, Chi-square test, regression analysis. Results About 40% of girls and boys had shoes that were incorrectly fitted in length, while as many as 74% of girls and 66% of boys wore shoes that were incorrectly fitted in width. Regression analysis demonstrated a statistically significant influence of the footwear length on longitudinal arch of the right and left foot and the transverse arch of the right foot. In boys, the length of the shoes shows associations with the right and left hallux valgus angle. Conclusion A significant percentage of the studied 7-year-olds, regardless of gender, wears inappropriately fitted shoes. In both sexes, the length of the footwear influenced the longitudinal arch of the right and left foot and the transverse arch of the right foot. Due to the deformity of the first metatarsophalangeal joint, the boys with hallux valgus require footwear which is wider and therefore their shoes need to be bigger in size.

Abstract Objectives Milk and dairy products are a major component of dietary intake, with milk consumption estimated at 6 billion people globally. Adults are reported to consume two or more portions of dairy daily. Cow's milk is composed of a variety of micro and macro nutrients, which is impacted by a range of factors, including lactation stage, and feeding system (indoor vs. pasture). Application of Metabolomics provides in depth analysis of the metabolite composition of milk. The objective was to examine the impact of lactation on bovine milk metabolite levels. Methods Metabolomic analysis of bovine milk powder samples across lactation (N = 18), was performed using 1H-NMR. Metabolites were quantified using Chenomx software (7.7). One-way repeated measures of analysis variance (ANOVA) with Tukeys post hoc test, was preformed on NMR data using SPSS (version 24.0), to assess the impact of lactation stages. P-values were corrected for multiple comparisons using Benjamini and Hochberg false discovery rate (FDR) procedure. Multivariate statistical analysis of the 1H-NMR data was carried out using SIMCA 13 (SIMCA Version 13.0.3.0 Umetrics, AB). Results 42 metabolites were identified and quantified in the 1H-NMR spectra. Statistical analysis revealed that 17 metabolites were significantly different across lactation stages (FDR < 0.05). Of these 17 metabolites, the majority had higher concentrations in early lactation. Examples of metabolites that changed with lactation stage include the tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates citrate and 2-oxoglutarate, amino acids, choline and phosphocholine. Interestingly choline and phosphocholine levels changed in opposite directions. Conclusions Our results demonstrate significant differences in metabolites across the stages of lactation, with early lactation having a distinct metabolic profile. Future work will explore these compositional differences further, encompassing animal feeding practice. Funding Sources Food for Health Ireland and Enterprise Ireland.

The aim of this article is to show that an evaluation of cultural aspects does not always mean an operation with "soft", non-quantifiable data. It is possible to refer to cultural variety of regions also with the help of numeric indicators, so-called "hard" data. As an example, differences between the Czech borderland and inland are studied in this article. The used characteristics are the percentage of native persons and number of municipality parts per municipality. Dissimilarity ratio of these indicators in space is evaluated by statistical analysis methods: independent-samples T test, one-way ANOVA, chi-square tests. Component analysis outputs help to complete the findings. Statistically significant differences between the identity of the Czech borderland and inland were proved. The impact of the former Czech-German linguistic boundary on the degree of regional identity of the inhabitants is still sensible.

AbstractHypothesis:Centralized dispatch data can provide useful information regarding the impact of major air medical system changes in a regional emergency medical services (EMS) system.Methods:Prospective evaluation of helicopter dispatch data from a centralized EMS dispatch agency. During the study period, four alterations in the total number of helicopters available to the system occurred (1,2,3,2,3). Statistical analysis consisted of Chi-Square with Yates' correction and comparison of sample proportions with p<.05 considered significant.Results:A total of 667 helicopter dispatches occurred during the 20-month study period from April 1989 through November 1990.Conclusion:Changes in dispatch patterns could result either from increased availability or alterations in the dispatchers' “threshold” for use based upon a perceived lessening of the need to save a “scarce” resource. Had the second possibility played a significant role, the rate of cancellation by ground personnel after arrival at the scene would be expected to have increased. Since this did not occur, it is likely that the increased use actually was a result of increased availability. In systems that dispatch helicopters prior to arrival of ground personnel, this method of evaluation may provide a useful model for analyzing the impact of major system alterations.

In this study two sets of hypotheses—a general set and a specific set—are advanced for testing. Whereas principal-axes factor analysis is applied to identify the major underlying dimensions that are postulated to be associated with padi farm fragmentation for 207 farms, stepwise multiple-regression analysis is employed to determine which among the twenty-six hypothesized variables have the strongest influence in predicting the extent of padi farm fragmentation in the Muda Irrigation Scheme Area of Kedah in northwest Malaysia. The impact which the extent of farm fragmentation has on padi productivity, irrigation, mechanization, and the neglect of parcels located at a distance from the farm house for the three size categories of farms—one-parcel, two-parcel, and three-or-more-parcel farms—is evaluated by the use of the chi-square test.
