    Abstract Influenced by global climate change, rainfall characteristics have changed in recent years, especially in arid regions. However, the actual response of the watersheds' hydrological indicators to erosive rainfalls has not been understood yet. Therefore, this study sought to investigate the changes in the watersheds' hydrological response due to the intra-rainfall indices of various events in the Dehgin paired watershed in Hormozgan, Iran, using the data collected from 2007 to 2019. To this end, first, all rainfall events which elicited the response of watersheds were identified concurrently based on the meteorological and flume data. Then, the qualitative and quantitative intra-storm variations associated with hydrological indicators (i.e., total runoff and discharge variables) were extracted for statistical analysis. The study's results revealed that (1) the increasing rates of the continuous discharge time of the control and treatment watershed's front position were about 2.25 and 4.76 times the rear position, respectively. (2) A strong linear relationship was found between total runoff volume and variables including precipitation of storm and time to storm peak in both control and treatment watersheds, with the R

(2) A strong linear relationship was found between total runoff volume and variables including precipitation of storm and time to storm peak in both control and treatment watersheds, with the R² reported to be 67.7 and 63.6%, respectively. (3) It was also found that the watershed management operations reduced the variables’ values including the maximum discharge, the discharge variation coefficient, continuity time of discharge, the peak of the time to discharge, the number of discharge peaks, and the total runoff volume by 3, 1.6, 2.25, 2.37, 2.42, and 3.27 times, respectively. Therefore, it could conceivably be argued that extreme rainfalls can be controlled by management practices in the watersheds.

    Abstract Natural polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) have been the subject of interest for scientific research owing to their sustainable potential in a broad variety of advanced technologies. Herein, bio-based and environmental friendly polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) of Chitosan (CS) and Quince seed gum (QSG) were formed and studied as a function of polyelectrolyte concentration (0.3 and 0.5% w/v) and CS:QSG ratio (1:3, 1:1 and 3:1). Zeta potential and rheological behavior confirmed the formation of the complexes. The maximum electrostatic interaction occurred at the mixing ratio of 1:1 at 0.3% w/v where the zeta potential was − 2.3 mV. All viscoelastic values showed high dependency on mixing ratio and QSG concentration below and above critical entanglement concentration of QSG (0.3% w/v). Immediate gelation and viscoelastic behavior improvement were observed by time and temperature sweep tests. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) results showed that the inter-biopolymeric complexes were formed through the interaction of –NH₃⁺ and –COO⁻, together with hydrogen bonding. All samples depicted lamellar porous interconnected microstructure (maximum BET surface area of 23.5 m²/g) and three-dimensional sponge-like macrostructure. Without any additional crosslinking, the PEC with higher QSG volume ratio (3:1) and higher concentration (0.5% w/v) exhibited higher Methylene Blue (MB) adsorption capacity (30.88 mg/g) and removal efficiency (77.2%) at practical pH 6.0 than zwitterionic Rhodamine B (RB) and anionic Methyl Orange (MO). The experimental data were in line with the pseudo-second-order (PSO) adsorption kinetic and the Freundlich isotherm model. The eco-friendly CS-QSG PECs can be acted as a promising adsorbent for multiple dye removal.

    Abstract Background: This study aimed to compare acute hemodynamic, metabolic (glucose and blood lactate concentrations), hormonal (growth hormone and normetanephrine), heart rate variability (HRV), and rating of perceived exertion (RPE) responses before and after bouts of a boxing exergame with and without blood flow restriction (BFR) in non-athlete young individuals.
    Methods: Fourteen participants (age: 30 ± 10 y; BMI: 21 ± 3 kg.m
    Results: Playing exergame led to a significant increase in hemodynamic variables (except for diastolic blood pressure) regardless of BFR condition with no between-group differences. Regarding HRV, significant reductions in total power (TP) and low-frequency (LF) waves were identified in the non-BFR group (
    Conclusions: We observed similar hemodynamic, hormonal, and metabolic responses after an acute boxing exergame session in young individuals, whether conducted with or without BFR. However, notable differences were observed in certain HRV markers and RPE. Specifically, the inclusion of BFR resulted in an elevation of VLF and a heightened perceived exertion. These findings suggest that BFR may alter cardiac autonomic and perceptual responses during exergaming. Further research is warranted to understand the long-term implications and potential benefits of incorporating BFR into exergaming routines.

    Abstract This study compared the effects of blood flow restriction (BFR) on intensity and perceived enjoyment during an exergame. Fourteen healthy young participants engaged in a boxing exergame for 20 min, with or without BFR, across two sessions. Perceived enjoyment levels were assessed using the Physical Activity Enjoyment Scale. Heart rate was monitored, and energy expenditure (EE) during exercise was calculated. A mixed model analysis of variance with repeated measures was used to evaluate differences in EE and enjoyment between exergame conditions (with and without BFR) as well as the interaction effects of these protocols with gender. Although not statistically significant, perceived enjoyment decreased with BFR inclusion for both genders. No significant differences were observed between men and women for both protocols. Regarding EE, there was no significant difference between the two groups (with and without BFR). However, a significant main effect of gender was found, with men exhibiting higher EE values in both protocols compared to women. In conclusion, exergames incorporating BFR impact perceptual responses, particularly perceived enjoyment. Furthermore, significant gender differences in EE were found, with men displaying higher values.

    Abstract The alkaline treatment condition plays a crucial role in governing the ultimate properties of flax fibers. In this study, flax fibers were modified with mild alkalization and severe mercerization conditions to give fundamental insight into how the molecular-scale changes in cell wall fine structure and cellulose supramolecular structure can affect the macroscopic properties of fibers. SEM, FTIR, XRD, TGA, and DSC techniques were employed to characterize the variations in morphology, composition, crystalline structure, and thermal properties of fibers. Also, tensile tests evaluated their reinforcing performance in polypropylene-based composites. The results indicated that alkalization in 5% (w/v) NaOH solution preserved the tensile properties of fibers, shifted their thermal decomposition temperature from 198 to 254°C, and effectively decreased their moisture absorption content by 18%. The improvements primarily originate from the partial removal of noncellulosic constituents and promoted crystallinity of native cellulose Iᵦ structure. However, mercerization in 20% (w/v) solution significantly reduced the rigidity of fibers in the longitudinal direction. Furthermore, it decreased the moisture absorption only by 6% and shifted the thermal degradation to 275°C. The excessive elimination of noncellulosic constituents and the polymorphic transformation, which led to a weaker hydrogen bonding network in the cellulose II region, accounts for these changes.

    Abstract According to the great potential of zero-valent iron nanoparticle applications in the environmental, medical, chemical, packaging and many other industries, there is still a need to tailor their production methods. This study reports the production of a hybrid nanostructure based on iron nanoparticles (INPs) produced in/on montmorillonite (MMT) nanoclays as an oxygen scavenger and barrier additive in polymeric packaging materials of oxygen-sensitive products. INPs and MMT were demonstrated to have effective mutual interactions in which the MMT host played a chemophysical trapping role for iron particles, causing smaller particles around 10 nm with 6.2 g/m

    Abstract Background and objective: Studies have shown that Caveolin gene polymorphisms (CAV-1) are involved in chronic diseases, such as metabolic syndrome. Moreover, the dietary insulin index (DII) and dietary insulin load (DIL) have been shown to potentially elicit favorable effects on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Therefore, this study sought to investigate the effect of DII DIL and CAV-1 interaction on CVD risk factors.
    Methods: This cross-sectional study consisted of 333 overweight and obese women aged 18-48 years. Dietary intakes, DII, and DIL were evaluated using the 147-item food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). Serum profiles were measured by standard protocols. The CAV-1 rs 3,807,992 and anthropometric data were measured by the PCR-RFLP method and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), respectively. Participants were also divided into three groups based on DII, DIL score, and rs3807992 genotype.
    Results: This comparative cross-sectional study was conducted on 333 women classified as overweight or obese. Participants with A allele for the caveolin genotype and higher DII score showed significant interactions with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) (P for AA = 0.006 and P for AG = 0.019) and CRI-I (P for AA < 0.001 and P for AG = 0.024). In participants with AA genotype and greater DII score, interactions were observed in weight, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), total cholesterol, CRI-II, fat-free mass (FFM), and skeletal muscle mass (SMM) (P < 0.079). Those with higher DIL scores and AA genotype had higher weight (P = 0.033), FFM (P = 0.022), and SMM (P = 0.024). In addition, DIL interactions for waist/hip ratio (WHR), waist circumference (WC), triglyceride (TG), CRI-I, and body fat mass (BFM) among individuals with AA genotype, while an HDL interaction was observed in individuals with AG and AA (P < 0.066).
    Conclusion: The findings of the present study indicate that people who carry the caveolin rs3807992 (A) allele and have greater DII and DIL scores are at higher risk for several cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndrome biomarkers. These results highlight that diet, gene variants, and their interaction, should be considered in the risk evaluation of developing CVD.
