    Abstract This paper is interested in certain subclasses of univalent and bi-univalent functions concerning to shell- like curves connected with k-Fibonacci numbers involving modified Sigmoid activation function θ(t)=2/(1+e^(-t) ) ,t ≥0 in unit disk |z|<1 . For estimating of the initial coefficients |c_2 | , |c_3 |, Fekete-Szego ̈ inequality and the second Hankel determinant have been investigated for the functions in our classes.

    Abstract Sun exposure, the main source of vitamin D, may have beneficial effects in humans, including for cardiovascular health. However, little is known about the characteristics related to sun exposure. Previous studies have surveyed participants with a demographic profile that is restricted by sex and ethnicity. We carried out an analysis to identify factors associated with self-reported sun exposure in a large multi-ethnic study of men and women. The study was a cross-sectional analysis of baseline data collected in a large vitamin D supplementation randomized controlled trial. The weekly amount of sun exposure in the past three months was assessed using a questionnaire. Multivariable prevalence ratios (PR) of high sun exposure (≥ 15 h/ week) associated with demographic and lifestyle variables were calculated using Poisson regression to adjust for covariates. A P-value of < 0.05 (2-tail) was used to determine statistical significance. A total of 5039 participants aged 50-84 years were analysed, who comprised 330 Pacific Islanders, 267 Māori, 242 South Asian and 4200 Other ethnicities (mostly European ancestry). For demographic variables, high sun exposure was associated with sex (higher in males), ethnicity (highest in Māori, lowest in South Asian), and education (highest in those completing secondary level education), but was lowest in the oldest age-group (80-84 years). For lifestyle variables, high sun exposure was associated with higher levels of alcohol drinking, TV watching and physical activity, but was not associated with tobacco smoking. Weekly sun exposure was lower in participants who were overweight or obese (compared to those with normal body mass index), and in those who reported a skin reaction to sun exposure of burning only (compared to those who reported tanning). These associations remained when all variables were included in the same model. In conclusion, several demographic and lifestyle factors were associated independently with the sun exposure, the primary source of vitamin D. Understanding how these factors are associated with sun exposure may refine strategies to minimise vitamin D deficiency.

    Abstract Background and objectives: Few studies have investigated the effects of time to treatment initiation (TTI) for soft tissue sarcomas (STS). Our objective was to investigate the risk factors for prolonged TTI and the effects of prolonged TTI on local recurrence free survival (LRFS), distant metastasis free survival (DMFS), and disease specific survival (DSS).
    Method: Patients diagnosed with high-grade STS of the extremities and trunk from 2011 to 2020 were included. TTI was grouped into two groups (treatment provided in less than vs. more than or equal to 30 days). Two-year and 5-year survival probabilities were calculated for LRFS, DMFS, and DSS. Cox regression and Kruskal-Wallis tests in univariate analysis were conducted to find risk factors affecting TTI and the survival outcomes.
    Results: In the univariate analysis, diagnosis in the later 5-year period of the study, tumor size, and treatment modality were associated with prolonged TTI. TTI ≥30 days was associated with higher DMFS but no association was found with LRFS or DSS. Tumor size, surgical margins, and provision of surgery were associated with DSS.
    Conclusion: Despite the delay in treatment for STS patients caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, our study showed TTI of more than 30 days does not negatively impact patients.

    Abstract Background: Researchers across the world are emphasising the importance of hand-washing and limited touching of face to curb the spread of COVID-19. However, access to safe water and hygiene is inadequate in many places around the globe; hence T-zone touching restriction is considered more worthwhile compared to other prevention strategies. Aim: A systematic review was carried out to appraise the frequency of T-zone (eyes, nose, mouth, chin) touching in humans to comprehend the challenge of its restriction, and thus support public health professionals to produce evidence synthesis guidance for public. For this systemic review, data were collected by keyword searching, and several online databases were searched. The PRISMA checklist, PECO protocol and STROBE guideline were followed in this review, and pooled data were analysed in R version 4. Result: Total of 10 single arms observational studies were included. The pooled average (SD) facial self-touch per hour was 50.06 (±47) times, and a specific touch of T-zone was 68.7 (±27). T-zone self-touch within the total facial self-touch was found higher R = 0.680, with 95% CI 0.14, 0.91, P = 0.02 and X2 = 167.63, P < 0.0001. Conclusion: The review found that face-touch is a type of consistent regulatory movements. Control of T-zone touch requires extensive behaviour intervention and community awareness.
