Exploring the Impact of Physiotherapy on Health Outcomes in Elderly Patients with Chronic Diseases: A Cross-Sectional Analysis

<p>In this cross-sectional analysis, we investigate the transformative impact of physiotherapy on health outcomes among elderly patients grappling with chronic diseases. Physiotherapy emerges as a pivotal intervention, offering multifaceted benefits that extend beyond mere symptom management. Through tailored exercises, mobility enhancements, and targeted pain management strategies, physiotherapy not only mitigates physical limitations but also fosters greater independence and quality of life. By examining a diverse cohort of elderly individuals diagnosed with chronic conditions such as osteoarthritis and cardiovascular diseases, this study underscores the profound role of physiotherapy in promoting functional mobility, reducing healthcare burdens, and enhancing overall well-being among this vulnerable population."</p>

Data from “A Mixed Method Approach to Understanding the Public Health Impact of a School-Based Citizen Science Program to Reduce Arsenic in Private Well Water”

Objectives We have approached the problem of low well water testing rates in Maine and New Hampshire communities by developing the All About Arsenic (AAA) project, which engages secondary school teachers and students as citizen scientists in collecting well water samples for analysis of arsenic and other toxic metals and supports their outreach efforts to their communities. Methods We assessed this project’s public health impact by analyzing student data relative to existing well water quality datasets in both states. In addition, we surveyed private well owners who contributed well water samples to the project to determine the actions taken to mitigate arsenic in well water. Data The data presented here are used in the analyses performed for the publication: "A Mixed Method Approach to Understanding the Public Health Impact of a School-Based Citizen Science Program to Reduce Arsenic in Private Well Water.” Additional data may be available at: The Anecdata Project Page: https://anecdata.org/projects/view/299 The project website: https://www.allaboutarsenic.org/

The impact of domestic combustion of biomass pellets on the environment and human health: Example from Poland

<p><strong>Submitted data was used to write an article: </strong>Drobniak, A., Jelonek, Z., Mastalerz, M., Jelonek, I., Widziewicz-Rzońca, K., The impact of domestic combustion of biomass pellets on the environment and human health: Example from Poland &ndash; in preparation.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Funding acknowledgments: </strong>The project is co-financed by the Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange within the Polish Returns Programme (BPN/PPO/2021/1/00005/DEC/1), the National Science Center, Poland (2022/01/1/ST10/00024), and the research activities co-financed by the funds granted under the Research Excellence Initiative of the University of Silesia in Katowice, Poland.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Article Abstract:<br></strong></p> <p><span>In the context of the European Union's intensified efforts to curb greenhouse gas emissions and meet climate targets, wood pellets have emerged as a pivotal element in the renewable energy strategy. Yet, biomass pellet combustion has been linked to a range of pollutants impacting air quality and public health. As biomass utilization gains popularity as a fuel for residential heating, it is important to determine this impact and enhance sustainable practices throughout the entire biomass energy production cycle. </span></p> <p><span>This study investigates the intricate dynamics of biomass pellet properties on their combustion emissions, with a specific focus on the differences observed between pellets of woody and non-woody origins. The data reveal a variation in pellet characteristics, especially regarding their ash and fines contents, mechanical durability, and impurity levels, and significant differences in the type and amount of utilization emissions. The results highlight potential health risks posed by the combustion of biomass fuels, particularly non-woody (agro) pellets, due to elevated concentrations of emitted particulate matter (PM), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO<sub>2</sub>), hydrogen sulfide (H<sub>2</sub>S), ammonia (NH<sub>3</sub>), chlorine (Cl<sub>2</sub>), sulfur dioxide (SO<sub>2</sub>), and formaldehyde (HCHO), all surpassing recommended limits.</span></p> <p><span>Moreover, the study reveals that emissions from pellet combustion could be partially predicted by analyzing pellet characteristics. Statistical analysis identified several key variables&mdash;including bark content, fines content, mechanical durability, bulk density, heating value, net calorific value, sulfur, and nitrogen content&mdash;that impact emissions of CO, NO<sub>2</sub>, H<sub>2</sub>S, SO<sub>2</sub>, HCHO, and respiratory tract irritants. These findings underscore the need for proactive measures, including the implementation of stricter standards for fuel quality and emissions, alongside public education initiatives promoting the cleanest and safest fuels possible. </span></p> <p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p>

Data from: Do the health benefits of boiling drinking water outweigh the negative impacts of increased indoor air pollution exposure?

<p><strong>Background: </strong>Billions of the world's poorest households are faced with the lack of access to both safe drinking water and clean cooking. One solution to microbiologically contaminated water is boiling, often promoted without acknowledging the additional risks incurred from indoor air degradation from using solid fuels.</p> <p><strong>Objectives: </strong>This modeling study explores the tradeoff of increased air pollution from boiling drinking water under multiple contamination and fuel use scenarios typical of low-income settings.</p> <p><strong>Methods: </strong>We calculated the total change in disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) from indoor air pollution (IAP) and diarrhea from fecal contamination of drinking water for scenarios of different source water quality, boiling effectiveness, and stove type. We used Uganda and Vietnam, two countries with a high prevalence of water boiling and solid fuel use, as case studies. </p> <p><strong>Results: </strong>Boiling drinking water reduced the diarrhea disease burden by a mean of 1110 DALYs and 368 DALYs per 10,000 people for adults and children &lt;5 years in Uganda, respectively, for high-risk water quality and the most efficient (lab-level) boiling scenario, with smaller reductions for less contaminated water and ineffective boiling. Similar results were found in Vietnam, apart from fewer avoided DALYs in children due to different demographics. In both countries, for households with high baseline IAP from existing solid fuel use, adding water boiling to cooking on a given stove was associated with a limited increase in IAP DALYs due to the log-linear dose-response curves. Boiling, even at low effectiveness, was associated with <em>net </em>DALY reductions for medium- and high-risk water, even if using unclean stoves/fuels. Replacing traditional stoves with improved stoves coupled with effective boiling practices significantly reduced total DALYs.   </p> <p><strong>Discussion: </strong>Boiling water generally resulted in a net decrease in DALYs. Future efforts should empirically measure health outcomes from IAP vs. diarrhea associated with boiling drinking water using field studies with different boiling methods and stove types.</p>

Data from: Impacts of weathered microplastic ingestion on gastrointestinal microbial communities and health endpoints in fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas)

<p>Microplastics are a ubiquitous presence in the world's aquatic environments and their threat to aquatic biota is poorly understood, especially in freshwater ecosystems. In the environment, microbial biofilms can form on the surface of microplastics, and these plastics have the potential to adsorb harmful toxins. Because lab-based studies on microplastics are often conducted with clean polymers, in ecologically unrealistic conditions and concentrations, the impact of these weathered microplastics on aquatic organisms in ecologically realistic conditions is still unclear. To help address the need for ecologically relevant microplastic exposure data, we incubated 500 μm polyethylene microplastic beads in Muskegon Lake, Michigan, USA and used them to conduct a 28-day ingestion study with male and female fathead minnows (<em>Pimephales promelas</em>). We examined the effects of microplastic ingestion on the fish gut microbial community along with hepatic gene expression and health parameters. We found that microplastic ingestion had statistically significant impacts on growth in male fathead minnows. Microplastic treatment did not significantly alter the beta diversity of the gut microbial community for either males or females, but there were clear differences between sexes and over time, indicating that these factors may outweigh the impacts of microplastic ingestion on beta diversity in the gut. The expression of immune response genes was not altered in males. It did, however, cause some changes to alpha diversity metrics in both sexes and there were several differentially abundant taxa among treatments. These data suggest that microplastic ingestion has health effects, but these effects may be sex specific across certain species and they are likely not being solely driven by changes in gut microbial communities.</p>
