Different types of tourist attractions offer different experiences to tourists, which affect their price perceptions and purchase decisions.Methods: This study combined questionnaires and event-related potentials (ERPs) measures to explore the magnitude of psychological conflict and the degree of emotional arousal that consumers experience when faced with different prices of goods in different scenic types.Results: The questionnaire results showed that attraction type influenced consumers’ price perceptions and that consumers were willing to pay higher prices for products in attractions. The ERP results implied that in the early stage of cognition, attraction type did not affect consumers’ perceptual processing, while price information attracted consumers’ cognitive attention. In the late stage of cognition, attraction type, and price information jointly influenced consumers’ decision-making, and consumers tended to accept high prices of products in entertainment attractions and cultural attractions, but consumers were more sensitive to the price of products in cultural attractions and less tolerant to price increases.Conclusion: The study elucidated how price information influenced consumers’ purchase decisions of tourism products at different stages of the dual-process theory, which can assist tourism managers in devising different pricing strategies and positioning strategies based on the attributes of attractions, to enhance product sales and revenues. This would further the vision of the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) of “tourism fostering economic development”.Keywords: tourist attractions, price perception, neuromarketing, event-related potentials, P2, LPP

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of visual impairment on return to work for vocational rehabilitation (VR) consumers with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Individuals with TBI between the ages of 18 and 67 who received services from state-federal VR agencies were included in the sample. Hierarchical generalized linear modeling was used to identify factors that predict employment following TBI. Visual impairment caused by TBI (VI-TBI) was the primary independent variable of interest and competitive employment at case closure was the outcome measure. VI-TBI was negatively associated with obtaining employment. Other predictors of employment for those with TBI were also identified.

Abstract

Multiplicity fluctuation of the target evaporated fragments emitted in 290 A MeV 12C-AgBr, 400 A MeV 12C-AgBr, 400 A MeV 20Ne-AgBr and 500 A MeV 56Fe-AgBr interactions is investigated using scaled factorial moment method in two-dimensional normal phase space and cumulative variable space, respectively. It is found that in normal phase space the scaled factorial moment (ln) increases linearly with increase of the divided number of phase space (lnM) for lower q-value and increases linearly with the increase of lnM and then becomes saturated or decreased for higher q-value, in cumulative variable space ln decreases linearly with increase of lnM, which indicates that no evidence of non-statistical multiplicity fluctuation is observed in our data sets. So any fluctuation indicated in the results of normal variable space analysis is totally caused by non-uniformity of single-particle density distribution., Comment: 10 Pages, 4 figures

9. The Impact of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act on Agency-Level Vocational Rehabilitation Outcomes for Adults and Youth With Blindness and Low Vision

Author

McDonnall, Michele C., Cmar, Jennifer L., and McKnight, Zhen S.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of the U.S. Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) on outcomes (competitive employment rates and median earnings) for adult and youth vocational rehabilitation consumers with blindness or low vision (B/LV) and to determine whether impacts differed by agency type. We utilized RSA-911 data to create two agency-level longitudinal datasets, one for youth and one for adults, with 6-year pre-WIOA and 3-year post-WIOA periods. Data were analyzed using discontinuous growth modeling to assess longitudinal changes in agency-level outcomes through the inclusion of variables representing WIOA and subsequent change in response to WIOA. After WIOA, both youth and adult agency-level competitive employment rates decreased significantly for consumers with B/LV, with a larger impact on youth, and median earnings increased. Results document that the impact of WIOA on agencies varied widely. Separate agencies had a significant decrease in adult competitive employment rates for consumers with B/LV and a significant increase in median earnings compared with combined agencies. Overall, the influence of WIOA on B/LV consumer outcomes appears to be mixed at best, and the effect is surprisingly similar for youth and adults.

10. NON-LINEAR BEHAVIORS OF PULTRUDED GFRP COMPOSITES

Author

Liu, T., Zhen, S., and Wang, R.

Abstract

In this paper, the non-linear behaviors of pultruded glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites were experimentally investigated. In particular, GFRP short columns and GFRP bolted connections were focused, aiming to evaluate the progressive failure of material in the manner of compression and shear failure. The obtained experimental observations demonstrated that the continued end-section crushing and shear-out failure could lead to the non-linear behaviors of GFRPs after reaching their peak loads. The non-linear behaviors of GFRP composites may be of great value for meeting the design requirement for extreme loading conditions., Paper 95

Abstract

Persons with visual impairments (VI) have a high nonparticipation rate in the labor force. Information about factors influencing their labor force participation could provide insight into how to increase employment rates. We selected persons with VI from the Survey of Income and Program Participation to investigate factors that differentiate persons out of the labor force (OLF) for chronic health or disability reasons from those employed and those OLF due to other reasons. Persons with VI and OLF for chronic health or disability reasons were more likely to have additional disabilities; have physical, mental, or other health limitations to work; and receive Supplemental Security Income or Social Security Disability Insurance. Compared with those employed, people with VI and OLF for chronic health or disability reasons appear to have multiple characteristics indicating poorer health, lower education attainment, and greater financial insecurity. Compared with those OLF due to other reasons, people with VI and OLF for chronic health or disability reasons were less likely to be female but more likely to receive food assistance and to indicate disadvantaged health status. These results suggest that skills to accommodate vision disability or health conditions are essential to employment or further education, and additional education may expand vocational options. Benefits counseling, encouragement, and careful career planning may assist persons with VI in moving toward financial independence.

Abstract

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of visual impairment and correctable visual impairment (i.e., uncorrected refractive errors) on being out of the labor force and on unemployment. The effect of health on labor force status was also investigated. Method: National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data from 1999 to 2008 ( N = 15,650) was used for this study. Participants were classified into three vision status groups: normal, correctable visual impairment, and visual impairment. Statistical analyses utilized were chi-square and logistic regression. Results: Having a visual impairment was significantly associated with being out of the labor force, while having a correctable visual impairment was not. Conversely, having a correctable visual impairment was associated with unemployment, while having a visual impairment was not. Being out of the labor force was not significantly associated with health for those with a visual impairment, although it was for those with correctable visual impairments and normal vision. Discussion: Given previous research, it was surprising to find that health was not associated with being out of the labor force for those with visual impairments. Perhaps other disadvantages for the people with visual impairments identified in this study contributed to their higher out-of-the-labor-force rates regardless of health. Implications for practitioners: Researchers utilizing national data sets that rely on self-reports to identify visual impairments should realize that some of those who self-identify as being visually impaired may actually have correctable visual impairments. Current research is needed to understand why a majority of people with visual impairments are not seeking employment and have removed themselves from the labor force.

Abstract

Introduction: This study utilized data from the 2014 Survey of Disability and Employment (SDE) to examine personal characteristics that influenced employment after disability onset for people who are visually impaired (i.e., those who are blind or have low vision). Method: The selected sample from the SDE data set included 131 individuals who are visually impaired, had disability onset after age 14 years, and worked before their disability onset. Logistic regression was used to examine working after disability onset associated with age at disability onset, years since disability onset, gender, race, education, receipt of government disability benefits, self-reported health, encouragement received to work, additional disabilities, and the interaction between age at disability onset and years since disability onset. Results: Persons who were female, received government benefits, and had multiple disabilities were less likely to work after disability onset; persons who had more sources of encouragement were more likely to work after disability onset. Age at disability onset interacted with time since disability onset; as age increased, odds of working after disability onset increased but only for persons who had their disability for at least 4 years. Discussion: Persons with newly acquired disabilities may need time to adjust to their disability and learn new skills that allow them to continue employment. Information about how employment may influence receipt of government benefits would be helpful to persons evaluating their options regarding continuing employment. Implications for practitioners: A person who has not worked after recent disability onset may be adjusting to life with a disability and may return to work in the future. Encouragement to work from both service providers and family members made a meaningful difference in employment retention after disability onset, and this is an area that vocational rehabilitation professionals can influence.

Abstract

Introduction Surgical site infection (SSI) is the most common and costly complication of surgery. International guidelines recommend topical alcoholic chlorhexidine (CHX) before surgery. However, upper limb surgeons continue to use other antiseptics, citing a lack of applicable evidence, and concerns related to open wounds and tourniquets. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of different topical antiseptics before upper limb surgery. Methods This international multicentre prospective cohort study recruited consecutive adults and children who underwent surgery distal to the shoulder joint. The intervention was use of CHX or povidone–iodine (PVI) antiseptics in either aqueous or alcoholic form. The primary outcome was SSI within 90 days. Mixed-effects time-to-event models were used to estimate the risk (hazard ratio (HR)) of SSI for patients undergoing elective and emergency upper limb surgery. Results A total of 2454 patients were included. The overall risk of SSI was 3.5 per cent. For elective upper limb surgery (1018 patients), alcoholic CHX appeared to be the most effective antiseptic, reducing the risk of SSI by 70 per cent (adjusted HR 0.30, 95 per cent c.i. 0.11 to 0.84), when compared with aqueous PVI. Concerning emergency upper limb surgery (1436 patients), aqueous PVI appeared to be the least effective antiseptic for preventing SSI; however, there was uncertainty in the estimates. No adverse events were reported. Conclusion The findings align with the global evidence base and international guidance, suggesting that alcoholic CHX should be used for skin antisepsis before clean (elective upper limb) surgery. For emergency (contaminated or dirty) upper limb surgery, the findings of this study were unclear and contradict the available evidence, concluding that further research is necessary., This international study recruited 2454 children and adults undergoing surgery on their upper limb (arm or hand), from 42 hospitals worldwide. The overall risk of infection after surgery was 3.5 per cent. Before planned (elective) surgery, if surgeons cleaned the skin with alcoholic chlorhexidine, then the risk of infection was reduced by 70 per cent.

The biochemical variables and anthropometric variables of the study participants were evaluated. Plasma BChE level was measured by DGKC method.Results: OB was associated with a higher prevalence of upper strata plasma BChE levels when compared with the BChE levels in UW, NW, and OW group. A logistic regression analysis showed that plasma BChE was positively associated with the OB group when compared with the NW group. Boys in the OW group, but not the OB group, had a significantly higher prevalence of upper stratum of BChE levels. Plasma triglyceride, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, and ApoB levels were positively associated with the upper stratum of BChE levels when compared with lower stratum. MetS and most of its components were more prevalent among subjects with upper stratum rather than lower stratum BChE levels. Receiver operating characteristic curves for plasma BChE in subjects with MetS indicated that the AUC was 0.80 (95%CI:0.70–0.90,P

Abstract

From 1985 to 2016, the prevalence of underweight decreased, and that of obesity and severe obesity increased, in most regions, with significant variation in the magnitude of these changes across regions. We investigated how much change in mean body mass index (BMI) explains changes in the prevalence of underweight, obesity, and severe obesity in different regions using data from 2896 population-based studies with 187 million participants. Changes in the prevalence of underweight and total obesity, and to a lesser extent severe obesity, are largely driven by shifts in the distribution of BMI, with smaller contributions from changes in the shape of the distribution. In East and Southeast Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, the underweight tail of the BMI distribution was left behind as the distribution shifted. There is a need for policies that address all forms of malnutrition by making healthy foods accessible and affordable, while restricting unhealthy foods through fiscal and regulatory restrictions. © Copyright.

Abstract

A crewed mission to and from Mars may include an exciting array of enabling biotechnologies that leverage inherent mass, power, and volume advantages over traditional abiotic approaches. In this perspective, we articulate the scientific and engineering goals and constraints, along with example systems, that guide the design of a surface biomanufactory. Extending past arguments for exploiting stand-alone elements of biology, we argue for an integrated biomanufacturing plant replete with modules for microbial in situ resource utilization, production, and recycling of food, pharmaceuticals, and biomaterials required for sustaining future intrepid astronauts. We also discuss aspirational technology trends in each of these target areas in the context of human and robotic exploration missions.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Coagulation parameters are used to diagnose hematological diseases. The correlation between the coagulation parameters and Apgar score at 5 min is yet to be elucidated. The present study aimed at describing the neonatal coagulation parameters in preterm infants with a low Apgar score at 5 min. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this case-control study, 32 serious preterm infants were compared with 20 preterm infants, according to the Apgar score at 5 min. The prothrombin time (PT), thrombin time (TT), fibrinogen (Fbg), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), calculated international normalized ratio (INR), D-dimer (D2), fructose diphosphate sodium (FDP), and procalcitonin (PCT) values were recorded. The linear correlation between coagulation parameters and Apgar score at 5 min was analyzed by linear regression. The two groups were compared using GraphPad Prism 8 (LaJolla, CA, USA). RESULTS: In the study, the mean coagulation parameters were significantly higher in the serious preterm infants with low the Apgar score at 5 min compared to the preterm infants with normal Agar scores at 5 min (p<0.05). The correlation between coagulation parameters and Apgar score at 5 min was recorded (PT: R=0.3984; APTT: R=0.3165; INR: R=0.4139). CONCLUSIONS: The coagulation parameters were significantly higher in serious preterm infants with a low Apgar score at 5 min. Also, the coagulation parameters and Apgar score at 5 min are associated with severity in preterm infants. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) has caused currently ongoing global plague and imposed great challenges to health managing systems all over the world, with millions of infections and hundreds of thousands of deaths. In addition to racing to develop vaccines, neutralizing antibodies (nAbs) to this virus have been extensively sought and are expected to provide another prevention and therapy tool against this frantic pandemic. To offer fast isolation and shortened early development, a large human naïve phage display antibody library, was built and used to screen specific nAbs to the receptor-binding domain, RBD, the key for Covid-19 virus entry through a human receptor, ACE2. The obtained RBD-specific antibodies were characterized by epitope mapping, FACS and neutralization assay. Some of the antibodies demonstrated spike-neutralizing property and ACE2-competitiveness. Our work proved that RBD-specific neutralizing binders from human naïve antibody phage display library are promising candidates to for further Covid-19 therapeutics development.

Abstract

High blood cholesterol is typically considered a feature of wealthy western countries1,2. However, dietary and behavioural determinants of blood cholesterol are changing rapidly throughout the world3 and countries are using lipid-lowering medications at varying rates. These changes can have distinct effects on the levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and non-HDL cholesterol, which have different effects on human health4,5. However, the trends of HDL and non-HDL cholesterol levels over time have not been previously reported in a global analysis. Here we pooled 1,127 population-based studies that measured blood lipids in 102.6 million individuals aged 18 years and older to estimate trends from 1980 to 2018 in mean total, non-HDL and HDL cholesterol levels for 200 countries. Globally, there was little change in total or non-HDL cholesterol from 1980 to 2018. This was a net effect of increases in low- and middle-income countries, especially in east and southeast Asia, and decreases in high-income western countries, especially those in northwestern Europe, and in central and eastern Europe. As a result, countries with the highest level of non-HDL cholesterol—which is a marker of cardiov

Abstract

Wind tunnel tests of a 1/2200-scale mountainous terrain model have been carried out to investigate local wind characteristics at a bridge location in southeast Tibet, China. Flows at five key locations on the bridge at deck level were measured for 26 directions. It was observed that wind characteristics (including mean wind velocity and overall turbulence intensity) vary significantly depending on the approaching wind direction and measurement position. The wind inclination angle measured in the study fluctuated between $-18^{\circ}$ and $+16^{\circ}$ and the ratio of mean wind velocity to reference wind velocity was small when the wind inclination angles were large, especially for positive wind inclination angles. The design standard wind speed and the minimum critical wind speed for flutter rely on the wind inclination angle and should be determined from the results of such tests. The variation of wind speed with wind inclination angles should be of the asymmetry step type. The turbulence characteristics of the wind were found to be similar to real atmospheric flows.
