A cross-sectional study was conducted with 438 male healthcare professionals in Malaysia.

The study concludes that the Malay CMNI-30 is a valid and culturally relevant tool for assessing masculinity norms in this context.

In the current study, we focus on loneliness as a potential subjective age determinant.

We employed latent growth modeling and found that, when controlling for sociodemographic and health-related covariates, higher loneliness was related to an older subjective age cross-sectionally and to a steeper increase in subjective age over time. These relations were mediated via stress; however, the relation between stress and subjective age was no longer statistically significant when including the covariates.

This means that disruptions such as natural disasters or human error at these crucial points can significantly impact numerous economies across various facets of trade. Thus, real-time monitoring of such events and their impact on different vessel types is crucial for developing timely mitigation strategies, policies, and penalties. This paper proposes a novel framework for analyzing anomalous events in passageways using Automated Information System (AIS). This framework enables monitoring of affected vessels and quantifies the impact in terms of the number of vessels, dwell and idle times, and the emergence of new routes. To demonstrate its potential, we applied the proposed framework to the Suez Canal blockage in March 2021. Results revealed distinct phases during the event, with each phase impacting average dwell times. Additionally, the analysis identified the emergence of passageway event-driven routes utilized by vessels to bypass the blockage. These findings highlight the ability of the proposed framework to capture previously obscured information compared to existing indicators and port analysis methods. To further demonstrate its generalizability, the methodology was also applied to two other passageways: the Bosporus Strait, following the policy implemented in February 2022 due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, following the disruption caused by the Houthi attacks beginning in the last quarter of 2023.</p>","PeriodicalId":20189,"journal":{"name":"PLoS ONE","volume":"20 4","pages":"e0320129"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143764637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Particularly, the Fast Health Interoperability Resources standards and Clinical Decision Support Hooks could support data acquisition, sharing, and expansion of research across organizations and disparate electronic health records. We developed a novel approach, Precision Accelerated Clinically Embedded Research (PACER), that leverages these advances in healthcare technology to integrate very short, minimal-risk research activities into clinical encounters.

This study proposes a novel musculoskeletal modeling and control methodology to investigate human balancing capabilities in the center of mass (COM) state space. A musculoskeletal model is integrated with a balance controller trained through reinforcement learning (RL) to explore the limits of dynamic balance during postural sway. The RL framework consists of two interlinked neural networks (balance recovery and muscle coordination) and is trained using Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) under multiple training strategies. By exploring recovery from random initial COM states with a trained controller, a balance region (BR) is obtained that encloses successful state-space trajectories. Comparing BRs obtained from different trained controllers with the analytical postural stability limits of a linear inverted pendulum model, we observe a similar trend in COM balanced states, but reduced recoverable areas. Furthermore, the effects of muscle weakness and neural excitation delay on the BRs are investigated, revealing reduced balancing capability in the COM state space. The novel approach of determining regions of stability through learning muscular balance controllers provides a promising avenue for personalized balance assessments and objective quantification of balance capability in humans with different health conditions.</p>","PeriodicalId":20189,"journal":{"name":"PLoS ONE","volume":"20 4","pages":"e0320211"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143764697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
