Background: Occupational-stress, job-satisfaction and poor health outcomes are closely related and strongly pertain to individuals' mental health and physiological well-being. Falsification of Type is a growing term in the field of organisational psychology that measures occupational stress when working in a job that does not match one's, natural leader.
Aim: The present work aims at determining the prevalence of falsification of type and associated socio-demographic and work-related factors.
Methods: The study sample consists of 150 researchers working at the National Research Centre of Egypt. Participants were asked to complete a self-report Falsification of Type Questionnaire, Andrews and Withey scale for Job Satisfaction, in addition to socio-demographic and work-related variables. Statistics included descriptive and comparative analyses. A regression model was built with falsification of the type as the dependent variable.
Results: Facilities showed the highest rate of dissatisfaction in the Job Satisfaction Questionnaire. The most prominent manifestations of falsification were fatigue and irritability, and its predictors were the position, interpersonal relationships, facilities and sex according to the regression model. Falsification of type could seriously contribute to occupational stress. Job satisfaction is highly about falsification.
Conclusion: More research on the Falsification of Type at work is recommended with the greater attention of employers to the importance of the concept of person-job fit.

Fatigue-induced changes in electromyographic activity after repeated racing turns: a pilot study.

Purpose: Alpine skiing races are physically demanding events characterized by numerous repeated near-maximal activations of the lower limb muscles. Although this type of task is known to induce neuromuscular fatigue, electromyographic activity (EMG) adaptations after repeated maximal-intensity skiing have not been previously investigated.
Methods: Six skiers completed a 6-turns section with (FAT) and without performing 30 giant slalom (GS) turns (CONT).

Article Synopsis
- This study examined how different types of blood flow restriction (BFR) cuffs, single-chamber (SC-BFR) and multi-chamber (MC-BFR), affect exercise performance, heart responses, and feelings during workouts when participants exercise until they can't anymore.
- Twenty-seven active participants performed resistance training under three conditions: SC-BFR, MC-BFR, and no BFR (N-BFR) to analyze various metrics like heart rate and exercise discomfort.
- Results showed that SC-BFR resulted in less overall reps and lower discomfort compared to the other methods, indicating that the type of BFR cuff used significantly influences exercise outcomes.
Estimating the impact of the first 2 years of the COVID-19 pandemic on tuberculosis diagnosis and treatment outcomes in Southeastern City in Iran: an interrupted time series analysis of the preceding 10 years of ecological data.

Background: With shared modes of transmission and clinical symptoms the convergence of COVID-19 and tuberculosis (TB) might lead to reduced diagnosis and detection of TB, which is challenging for healthcare systems already strained by the pandemic's reach.
Methods: This ecological study investigated the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on TB surveillance over the first 2 years of the pandemic (March 2020 to February 2022) in southeastern Iran. Interrupted Time Series (ITS) analysis with the quasi-Poisson regression models was used to estimate the relative risk (RR) of TB diagnosis and treatment outcome counts, stratified by gender, case definition, involvement type, and treatment outcomes.
Ingestion of a Whey Plus Collagen Protein Blend Increases Myofibrillar and Muscle Connective Protein Synthesis Rates.

Article Synopsis
- A study evaluated the effects of a whey and collagen protein blend on protein synthesis rates after exercise in 28 men.
- The protein blend (30 g total) significantly increased plasma amino acid levels compared to a placebo, particularly enhancing myofibrillar protein synthesis in both rested and exercised legs.
- While the protein blend improved both myofibrillar and muscle connective protein synthesis at rest, it primarily boosted myofibrillar synthesis during recovery after exercise.

Background/objectives: Obesity impairs intestinal glucose uptake (GU) (intestinal uptake of circulating glucose from blood) and alters gut microbiome. Exercise improves intestinal insulin-stimulated GU and alters microbiome. Genetics influence the risk of obesity and gut microbiome.
