Abstract
The Global Hunger Index (GHI) is calculated and disseminated annually. India, which is the 5th largest economy in the world and has a good ranking in many other indicators, has a poor ranking based on this index. After a critical review of the appropriateness of the indicators used in GHI, the Indian Council of Medical Research has the viewpoint that the indicators of undernourishment, stunting, wasting and child mortality do not measure hunger per se. Referring to this index as a Hunger Index, and thereby ranking countries is not appropriate, since many of the measures that are used to evolve an index that measures hunger are probably contextual. Countries should therefore evolve their own measures that are suitable for their own context.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
The prevalence and outcomes of polyvascular disease (PVD) in patients admitted with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) have not been previously reported, nor is it known whether associations differ for heart failure (HF) with reduced vs. preserved ejection fraction (HFrEF vs HFpEF, respectively).
Purpose
To investigate the relationship between atherosclerotic involvement of multiple arterial territories and mortality in patients hospitalized with ADHF.
Methods
The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study conducted hospital surveillance of adjudicated heart failure in 4 US areas from 2005–2014, with events verified by physician review. Medical histories were abstracted from the hospital record. PVD was defined by coexisting disease in ≥2 arterial beds, identified by prevalent coronary artery disease, peripheral arterial disease, and cerebrovascular disease. Mortality hazards of PVD vs. no PVD were analyzed separately for HFpEF and HFrEF, with adjustment for age, race, sex, year of admission and geographic region. All analyses were weighted by the inverse of the sampling probability.
Results
Of 24,936 ADHF hospitalizations (52% female, 32% Black, mean age 75 years), 19% had PVD (22% among HFrEF hospitalizations, 17% among HFpEF hospitalizations), Figure 1. There was an increasing trend in 1-year mortality with 0, 1 and ≥2 arterial bed involvement, both for patients with HFrEF (29% to 32% to 38%; P-trend=0.0006) and HFpEF (26% to 32% to 37%; P-trend <0.0001). After adjustments, PVD was associated with a 20% higher hazard of 1-year mortality in patients with HFrEF (HR=1.23; 95% CI: 1.06–1.44) and a 30% higher hazard in patients with HFpEF (HR=1.33; 95% CI: 1.09–1.63), with no significant interaction by HF type (P-interaction = 0.5).
Conclusion
Patients hospitalized with ADHF and coexisting PVD have an increased risk of death, irrespective of HF type. Clinical attention should be directed toward PVD, with secondary prevention strategies enacted to improve the prognosis of this vulnerable population.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have been shown to slow the decline of kidney function in outcome trials, but the biological mediator(s) underlying the therapeutic benefit are not well established.
Purpose
We performed a post-hoc analysis exploring potential mediators of the effects of the SGLT2 inhibitor ertugliflozin on the VERTIS CV exploratory kidney composite outcome (sustained 40% decrease from baseline in estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR], chronic kidney replacement therapy or kidney death).
Methods
In VERTIS CV, 8246 participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus and established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease were randomised to placebo, ertugliflozin 5 mg or 15 mg (pooled for analyses, as prospectively planned), and were followed for a mean of 3.5 years. The hazard ratio (HR; 95% confidence interval) for the pre-specified exploratory kidney composite outcome was 0.66 (0.50, 0.88). Cox regression models were used to evaluate covariates that were significantly differentially changed from baseline with ertugliflozin treatment as candidate mediators, with a mediator identified as a covariate when added to an unadjusted model of randomised treatment assignment a) yielded a larger hazard ratio; and b) the mediator retained P<0.05 in the model (eGFR was excluded as a covariate). The percentage of mediation was determined by the proportional increase in the HR between the unadjusted and adjusted models for each post-randomisation period: early (first change from baseline measurement) and average (weighted average of change from baseline from all post-baseline measurements). Each potential mediator was tested individually, so across analyses, mediation % sums to >100%.
Results
Of 22 covariates significantly changed by ertugliflozin, nine were identified as potential mediators (Table). The covariates with a high percentage of mediation were those related to changes in blood erythrocytes (haemoglobin, haematocrit and red blood cell mass), with average changes in haemoglobin having the highest percentage of mediation (61.8%). Serum uric acid was associated with a mediation of 29.4% and 50.0% for the early and average post-randomisation effect periods, respectively. Early changes in glycated haemoglobin had a large mediation (50%), but the average change during the trial was not significant. Average change in serum albumin had a large mediation (29.4%). Average changes in body weight and systolic blood pressure had percentages of mediation of 41.2% and 14.7%, respectively.
Conclusion
Multiple factors may be involved in the reduction of the kidney composite outcome observed with ertugliflozin. In the short-term, changes in glycaemia had a high mediation effect. Over the long-term, changes suggestive of haemoconcentration and/or haematopoiesis (natriuresis-related effects), showed the highest percentage of mediation, followed by changes in serum uric acid and body weight (glucosuria-related effects).

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce risk of hospitalisation for heart failure (HHF) in outcome trials, but the biological mediators underlying the therapeutic benefit are not well established.
Purpose
To identify potential biological mediators through which ertugliflozin reduces risk of HHF.
Methods
In VERTIS CV, 8246 patients with type 2 diabetes and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease were randomised to ertugliflozin 5 or 15 mg (observations pooled as prospectively planned) or placebo. Cox regression models were used to evaluate the associations between changes in 26 potential mediators with outcomes. Potential mediators were selected based on proposed mechanisms and/or differential change from baseline with SGLT2 inhibitors. Mediation criteria required 1) significant (P<0.05 for change from baseline) effects of ertugliflozin vs placebo on each potential mediator; and 2) significant (P<0.05) association of change in post-randomisation levels of the potential mediator with risk of HHF when added to an unadjusted model of randomised treatment assignment. Percent mediation was determined by comparing the unadjusted hazard ratio and hazard ratio adjusted for change in the potential mediator of interest. Each covariate was tested individually, such that percent mediation across the analyses summed to >100%. Time-dependent models were used to evaluate associations between early (change from baseline for the first post-baseline measurement) and average (weighted average of change from baseline using all post-baseline measurements) changes in covariates with clinical outcomes.
Results
Over a mean of 3.5 years, the incidence rate of HHF was 0.7 and 1.1 per 100 patient-years with ertugliflozin and placebo, respectively. Among 26 candidate mediators, 9 and 13 met the mediation criteria based on early and average changes, respectively. The 3 covariates with the largest mediating effects of early changes included haematocrit (40%), haemoglobin (27%) and HDL-C (23%) (Table); other significant biomarkers included urine albumin/creatinine ratio, and serum albumin, uric acid, chloride, protein and sodium. The 3 biomarkers with the largest mediating effects in average changes included haemoglobin (63%), albumin (50%) and uric acid (47%) (Table); other significant biomarkers included haematocrit, urine albumin/creatinine ratio, body weight, serum protein and chloride, systolic blood pressure, ALT, BUN, eGFR and heart rate.
Conclusions
In these analyses from the VERTIS CV trial, potential markers of volume status and haemoconcentration and/or haematopoiesis were the strongest mediators of the effect of ertugliflozin on reducing risk of HHF in the early and average change periods. Other potential mediators included uric acid, lipid markers and kidney parameters. These findings provide insights into potential mechanisms through which ertugliflozin, and potentially the SGLT2 inhibitor class, may prevent HHF.

Abstract
Background Child protection is burning issues in developing countries including Nepal. Child protection is one of the key works of the school health nurses. Objective To find out about the existing knowledge and practices of child protection among the school health nurses. Method This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 130 school health nurses working in different schools throughout Nepal. The participants were selected using purposive sampling technique and were invited to participate via various online networks. Self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data. Duration of data collection was 20 December 2020 to 10 February 2021. Descriptive statistics was used to analyze and interpret the data. Result Among the 130 Participants, 88.5% belonged to less than 29 years age group and 67.7% had Proficiency Certificate Level in Nursing education. None of them has received training related to child protection recognition and response and 90.8% had work experience of less than 5 years. Eighty percent and 96.9% participants had knowledge regarding the meaning of child right and child abuse respectively. But 45.4% had knowledge on meaning of child neglect; 53.1% and 72.3% had the knowledge of physical abuse and noncontact sexual abuse respectively. Majority (86.9%) of the participants reported as relatives were the abuser and 63.8% replied as home is the common place for abuse. Similarly, 85.4% had received the information regarding child protection via television radio and newspaper. Only 36.1% has already been involved in child protection. The participants who went to local government (Palika), police and Non-government Organizations for coordination for child right issues were 9(19.1%), 7(14.8%) and 8(17.0%) respectively. Conclusion Most of the school health nurses are young without having experience of childhood abuse and received any child protection training before joining the job. They have good knowledge of child right, physical, sexual abuse except child neglect and existing legal arrangements. There is gap in knowledge and practice.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
India plans elimination of HIV-Mother-to-Child-Transmission in 2020. Targets include >95% coverage of Antenatal-care (ANC) and HIV-testing. In 2015-16, while 43% of the estimated Indian pregnant-women (PW) received HIV-tests, one state reported >95% testing. Indian public-health-care is a three-tiered system from primary-level sub-centres (population-5000) to tertiary-level hospitals. ANC involves multiple-visits per pregnancy at different care-levels and data are aggregated in the Health-Management-Information-System (HMIS) at all levels. We validated (public and private-sector data from this state, for duplication in ANC registration and HIV-testing using mixed methods.
Methods
In the absence of guidelines for assessing aggregate-data duplication, we used mixed-methods, including surveys among 9845 PW and providers from 240 facilities in 10/36 representative districts; in-depth-interviews; case-studies and analysis of HMIS and HIV-program data (April 2015-Mar 2017). Interviews and case-studies highlighted inadvertent duplicate data-capture. Surveys quantified levels of duplication and adjustment factors (public and private-sector) were developed.
Results
Twenty-four% PW, visited multiple facilities for ANC, while 81% providers reported all the PW coming to their facilities as new ANC registrations (irrespective of lower-tier registration); identifying a minimum duplication of 19% (24%*81%) in ANC coverage. Twenty-nine% and 28% PW from public and private-facilities reported >1 HIV-test; while 75% and 36% reported visiting another public-facility where HIV test was likely to be reported again. Minimum duplication of 22% and 10% in HIV testing was noted in public and private-sectors respectively.
Conclusions
We report methods to quantify repeat HIV-testing and duplicate-reporting, due to inherent processes in ANC in public-healthcare in India. Modification of data-capture was recommended and adopted across India.
Key messages
Assessing duplication in aggregate health data is key to developing robust datasets for disease elimination

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Improvement in people’s knowledge of HIV/AIDS and reduction in stigma and discrimination have been key factors in the fight against HIV/AIDS. The objective of the present paper is to examine the mediation effect of comprehensive knowledge on people’s attitudes towards HIV positives in India.
Methods
Data for the study have been drawn from nationally representative India’s National Family Health Survey, 2015-16. Statistical methods of data analysis included odds ratio and logistic regression models.
Results
Two in every five men and of women with comprehensive knowledge held a positive attitude towards PLHIVs. The people in rural areas and females against their counterparts are less likely (OR: 0.85, p < 0.05) to have positive attitude. The mediation by comprehensive knowledge, contributed to 46% of direct effect from gender perspective on comprehensive positive attitude. Among males, aged group 25-44 and among females age <25 had most positive attitude towards people living with HIV (PLHIV) as compared to their counterparts.
Conclusions
There existed a difference between males and females in attaining comprehensive knowledge and having comprehensive positive attitude. The mediation by comprehensive knowledge contributed, though partially, direct effects from gender perspective on comprehensive positive attitude. The findings are programmatically relevant to device content analysis of the material in the information, education and communication strategies.
Key messages
The mediation effect of comprehensive knowledge on people’s attitudes towards HIV positives has been substantial in India.

Abstract
Decentralized response has been the hallmark of the National AIDS Control Programme in India. District-level HIV burden estimates quantifying the distribution of the epidemics are needed to enhance this decentralized response further to monitor the progress on prevention, testing, and treatment interventions. In this paper, we describe the methodology and results of district-level estimates using the Spectrum model piloted in 5 states of India under National AIDS Control Programme.Using state spectrum model for HIV estimations 2017, we disaggregated state results by the district in pilot states. Each district was considered a subepidemic and HIV epidemic configuration was carried out in its general population as well as in key population. We used HIV surveillance data from antenatal clinics and routine pregnant women testing to model the general population's epidemic curve. We used HIV prevalence data available from HIV sentinel surveillance and integrated biological and behavioral surveys to inform the epidemic curve for key population. Estimation and projection packgage classic platform was used for the curve fitting. District-wide estimates extracted from subpopulation summary in Spectrum results section were used to calculate relative burden for each district and applied to approved State HIV Estimations 2017 estimates.No district in Tamil Nadu had an adult HIV prevalence of higher than 0.5% except for one, and the epidemic seems to be declining. In Maharashtra, the epidemic has shown a decline, with all except 5 districts showing an adult prevalence of less than 0.50%. In Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh, few districts showed rising HIV prevalence. However, none had an adult prevalence of higher than 0.50%. In Mizoram, 6 of 8 districts showed a rising HIV trend with an adult prevalence of 1% or more in 5 districts.Disaggregation of state-level estimates by districts provided insights on epidemic diversity within the analyzed states. It also provided baseline evidence to measure the progress toward the goal of end of AIDS by 2030.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Home-based newborn care has been found to reduce neonatal mortality in rural areas. Study evaluated effectiveness of home-based care delivered by specially recruited newborn care workers- Shishu Rakshak (SR) and existing workers- anganwadi workers (AWW) in reducing neonatal and infant mortality rates. METHODS This three-arm, community-based, cluster randomised trial was conducted in five districts in India. Intervention package consisted of pregnancy surveillance, health education, care at birth, care of normal/low birthweight neonates, identification and treatment of sick neonates and young infants using oral and injectable antibiotics and community mobilisation. The package was similar in both intervention arms-SR and AWW; difference being healthcare provider. The control arm received routine health services from the existing health system. Primary outcomes were neonatal and young infant mortality rates at 'endline' period (2008-2009) assessed by an independent team from January to April 2010 in the study clusters. FINDINGS A total of 6623, 6852 and 5898 births occurred in the SR, AWW and control arms, respectively, during the endline period; the proportion of facility births were 69.0%, 64.4% and 70.6% in the three arms. Baseline mortality rates were comparable in three arms. During the endline period, the risk of neonatal mortality was 25% lower in the SR arm (adjusted OR 0.75, 95% CI 0.57 to 0.99); the risks of early neonatal mortality, young infant mortality and infant mortality were also lower by 32%, 27%, and 33%, respectively. The risks of neonatal, early neonatal, young infant, infant mortality in the AWW arm were not different from that of the control arm. INTERPRETATION Home-based care is effective in reducing neonatal and infant mortality rates, when delivered by a dedicated worker, even in settings with high rates of facility births. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER The study was registered with Clinical Trial Registry of India (CTRI/2011/12/002181).

Abstract
Background
The stability of biological samples is vital for reliable measurements of biomarkers in large-scale survey settings, which may be affected by freeze-thaw procedures. We examined the effect of a single freeze-thaw cycle on 13 nutritional, noncommunicable diseases (NCD), and inflammatory bioanalytes in serum samples.
Method
Blood samples were collected from 70 subjects centrifuged after 30 minutes and aliquoted immediately. After a baseline analysis of the analytes, the samples were stored at − 70°C for 1 month and reanalyzed for all the parameters. Mean percentage differences between baseline (fresh blood) and freeze-thaw concentrations were calculated using paired sample
t
-tests and evaluated according to total allowable error (TEa) limits (desirable bias).
Results
Freeze-thaw concentrations differed significantly (
p
< 0.05) from baseline concentrations for soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) (− 5.49%), vitamin D (− 12.51%), vitamin B12 (− 3.74%), plasma glucose (1.93%), C-reactive protein (CRP) (3.45%), high-density lipoprotein (HDL) (7.98%), and cholesterol (9.76%), but they were within respective TEa limits. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) (− 0.67%), creatinine (0.94%), albumin (0.87%), total protein (1.00%), ferritin (− 0.58%), and triglycerides (TAG) (2.82%) concentrations remained stable following the freeze-thaw cycle. In conclusion, single freeze-thaw cycle of the biomarkers in serum/plasma samples after storage at − 70°C for 1 month had minimal effect on stability of the studied analytes, and the changes in concentration were within acceptable limit for all analytes.

Abstract
Background & objectives: The National AIDS Control Organisation (NACO) and the ICMR-National Institute of Medical Statistics, the nodal agency for conducting HIV estimations in India, have been generating HIV estimates regularly since 2003. The objective of this study was to describe India's biennial HIV estimation 2017 process, data inputs, tool, methodology and epidemiological assumptions used to generate the HIV estimates and trends of key indicators for 2010-2017 at national and State/Union Territory levels. Methods: Demographic Projection (DemProj) and AIDS Impact Modules (AIM) of Spectrum 5.63 software recommended by the United Nations Programme on HIV and AIDS Global Reference Group on HIV Estimates, Modelling and Projections, were used for generating HIV estimations on key indicators. HIV sentinel surveillance, epidemiological and programme data were entered into Estimation Projection Package (EPP), and curve fitting was done using EPP classic model. Finally, calibration was done using the State HIV prevalence of two rounds of National Family Health Survey (NFHS) -3 and -4 and Integrated Biological and Behavioural Surveillance (IBBS), 2014-2015. Results: The national adult prevalence of HIV was estimated to be 0.22 per cent in 2017. Mizoram, Manipur and Nagaland had the highest prevalence over one per cent. An estimated 2.1 million people were living with HIV in 2017, with Maharashtra estimated to have the highest number. Of the 88 thousand annual new HIV infections estimated nationally in 2017, Telangana accounted for the largest share. HIV incidence was found to be higher among key population groups, especially people who inject drugs. The annual AIDS-related deaths were estimated to be 69 thousand nationally. For all indicators, geographic variation in levels and trends between States existed. Interpretation & conclusions: With a slow decline in annual new HIV infections by only 27 per cent from 2010 to 2017 against the national target of 75 per cent by 2020, the national target to end AIDS by 2030 may be missed; although at the sub-national level some States have made better progress to reduce new HIV infection. It calls for reinforcement of HIV prevention, diagnosis and treatment efforts by geographical regions and population groups.

Heterogeneous contributions of change in population distribution of body mass index to change in obesity and underweight. eLife 2021; 10:e60060.

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.

Pandey A, Singh G, Palni S, Chandra N, Rawat JS, Singh AP. Application of remote sensing in alpine grasslands cover mapping of western Himalaya, Uttarakhand, India. ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND ASSESSMENT 2021; 193:166. [PMID: 33675426 DOI: 10.1007/s10661-021-08956-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2020] [Accepted: 02/15/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Grasslands are the world's most extensive terrestrial ecosystem, which provides a variety of services for humans, such as carbon storage, food production, crop pollination, pest regulation, and are a major feed source for livestock. However, grasslands are today one of the most endangered ecosystems due to land-use change, agricultural intensification, land abandonment, as well as climate change. Grasslands are an integral part of human societies across the globe, which are broadly known as tropical savannah and temperate grasslands. In the Himalayan region, grasslands are found in more than 55% of the area and different climatic conditions lead to different varieties of grasslands like Danthonia grasslands, kobresia sedge meadow, etc. Grasslands deal with the spatial and temporal distribution of heterogeneous landscapes, which support a high diversity of various species. Owing to very rugged terrain and inaccessibility, the information on the extent of alpine grassland and percent grass cover (%) across the meadows is limited. Therefore, the present attempt was made to assess the current status of grassland in the alpine region of Uttarakhand above 3000 m asl. LANDSAT-8 (OLI and TIRS sensors) satellite data were used to delineate the grasslands using normalized difference vegetation indices (NDVIs) of the alpine region with the help of over 179 ground truth points out of which 50 points are testing points and 129 points are training points. Grass covers (%) were also assessed in the whole alpine region of Western Himalaya of Uttarakhand which nearly consists of over 75 meadows by using random plots (1 × 1 m, total 10 per site) in each meadow. Overall, 89.52% accuracy was achieved based on 50 randomly selected testing points. A total of 4949.25 sq. km area is under the different percentage of grass cover in the alpine region of Uttarakhand, Western Himalaya. Danthonia grasslands below 4000 m and Kobresia sedge meadows above 4000 m elevation are dominant in the state. In the alpine region, over 1056 sq. km grassland area have less than 10% grass cover indicating higher degraded and cold desert areas and only 565.69 sq. km area have more than 60% grass cover, which is highly favorable for rich biodiversity and grazing.

Abstract
The countries across the globe are facing one of the worst infectious diseases in modern times in the form of COVID-19 pandemic. Different measures have been taken to control and manage the outbreak of COVID-19 in these countries. There are two propositions in context of effective control and management of a pandemic like COVID-19. First, a strong and effective public health care system is essential for managing the public health crisis and the uneven responses to COVID-19 are mainly because of inadequate health infrastructure. Second, the spread of COVID-19 depends on the interplay of other social determinants at local level, and therefore, addressing the gaps in social determinants of COVID-19 at local level is critical to control and manage this pandemic. The present paper attempts to examine these two propositions in Indian context at states and districts level, respectively. Using the cross-sectional data and constructing composite indices of COVID-19 intensity and level of health infrastructure at state level, the results show that there is no robust relationship between level of health infrastructure and management of COVID-19 at state level as the states with better health infrastructure are also struggling to combat against COVID-19. The district-level analysis indicates a significant relationship between concentration of COVID-19 and social determinants as majority of the districts with higher concentration of COVID-19 are those which have social determinants below national average.

Abstract
Worldwide the R & D divisions of Pharma industry are actively involved in the development of new therapeutic agents. These agents may be either new entities or partial structural modification of the existing one. The recent FDA statistics represent that the average number of drug filings are increasing every year in the thrust areas like anti-cancer agents, anti-diabetic, antibiotics, cardio-vascular drugs, respiratory drugs etc. Sodium glucose co-transporter-2(SGLT-2) inhibitors, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors and biguanides are effective oral anti-diabetic agents used in treatment of type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Therefore, the necessity to explore and compare the existing analytical and bioanalytical assays used for determination of such drugs either single or in combination is crucial. Many methods were reported in the literature for the bio-analysis and analysis of four novel gliptins combinations, empagliflozin-linagliptin, empagliflozin-metformin HCl, linagliptin-metformin HCl, empagliflozin-linagliptin-metformin HCl combination with application on Glyxambi®, Synjardy®, Jentadueto®, Trijardy® XR tablets respectively. Furthermore, this review offered an overview of different methods used for determination of every drug alone as empagliflozin from SGLT-2 inhibitors, linagliptin from DPP-4 inhibitors and metformin from biguanides in a tabulated comparative way. Moreover, the current review emphasizes the most common stability indicating assays to be of interest to the analysts in the area of drug control. This review helps in understanding the further need for the development of analytical methods for the estimation of such drugs.

Snoeijer JH, Pandey A, Herrada MA, Eggers J. The relationship between viscoelasticity and elasticity. Proc Math Phys Eng Sci 2020; 476:20200419. [PMID: 33363441 PMCID: PMC7735292 DOI: 10.1098/rspa.2020.0419] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2020] [Accepted: 10/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Soft materials that are subjected to large deformations exhibit an extremely rich phenomenology, with properties lying in between those of simple fluids and those of elastic solids. In the continuum description of these systems, one typically follows either the route of solid mechanics (Lagrangian description) or the route of fluid mechanics (Eulerian description). The purpose of this review is to highlight the relationship between the theories of viscoelasticity and of elasticity, and to leverage this connection in contemporary soft matter problems. We review the principles governing models for viscoelastic liquids, for example solutions of flexible polymers. Such materials are characterized by a relaxation time λ, over which stresses relax. We recall the kinematics and elastic response of large deformations, and show which polymer models do (and which do not) correspond to a nonlinear elastic solid in the limit λ → ∞. With this insight, we split the work done by elastic stresses into reversible and dissipative parts, and establish the general form of the conservation law for the total energy. The elastic correspondence can offer an insightful tool for a broad class of problems; as an illustration, we show how the presence or absence of an elastic limit determines the fate of an elastic thread during capillary instability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Comparable global data on health and nutrition of school-aged children and adolescents are scarce. We aimed to estimate age trajectories and time trends in mean height and mean body-mass index (BMI), which measures weight gain beyond what is expected from height gain, for school-aged children and adolescents. METHODS For this pooled analysis, we used a database of cardiometabolic risk factors collated by the Non-Communicable Disease Risk Factor Collaboration. We applied a Bayesian hierarchical model to estimate trends from 1985 to 2019 in mean height and mean BMI in 1-year age groups for ages 5-19 years. The model allowed for non-linear changes over time in mean height and mean BMI and for non-linear changes with age of children and adolescents, including periods of rapid growth during adolescence. FINDINGS We pooled data from 2181 population-based studies, with measurements of height and weight in 65 million participants in 200 countries and territories. In 2019, we estimated a difference of 20 cm or higher in mean height of 19-year-old adolescents between countries with the tallest populations (the Netherlands, Montenegro, Estonia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina for boys; and the Netherlands, Montenegro, Denmark, and Iceland for girls) and those with the shortest populations (Timor-Leste, Laos, Solomon Islands, and Papua New Guinea for boys; and Guatemala, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Timor-Leste for girls). In the same year, the difference between the highest mean BMI (in Pacific island countries, Kuwait, Bahrain, The Bahamas, Chile, the USA, and New Zealand for both boys and girls and in South Africa for girls) and lowest mean BMI (in India, Bangladesh, Timor-Leste, Ethiopia, and Chad for boys and girls; and in Japan and Romania for girls) was approximately 9-10 kg/m2. In some countries, children aged 5 years started with healthier height or BMI than the global median and, in some cases, as healthy as the best performing countries, but they became progressively less healthy compared with their comparators as they grew older by not growing as tall (eg, boys in Austria and Barbados, and girls in Belgium and Puerto Rico) or gaining too much weight for their height (eg, girls and boys in Kuwait, Bahrain, Fiji, Jamaica, and Mexico; and girls in South Africa and New Zealand). In other countries, growing children overtook the height of their comparators (eg, Latvia, Czech Republic, Morocco, and Iran) or curbed their weight gain (eg, Italy, France, and Croatia) in late childhood and adolescence. When changes in both height and BMI were considered, girls in South Korea, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and some central Asian countries (eg, Armenia and Azerbaijan), and boys in central and western Europe (eg, Portugal, Denmark, Poland, and Montenegro) had the healthiest changes in anthropometric status over the past 3·5 decades because, compared with children and adolescents in other countries, they had a much larger gain in height than they did in BMI. The unhealthiest changes-gaining too little height, too much weight for their height compared with children in other countries, or both-occurred in many countries in sub-Saharan Africa, New Zealand, and the USA for boys and girls; in Malaysia and some Pacific island nations for boys; and in Mexico for girls. INTERPRETATION The height and BMI trajectories over age and time of school-aged children and adolescents are highly variable across countries, which indicates heterogeneous nutritional quality and lifelong health advantages and risks.
