Aim of study: This study evaluated the impact of thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.) essential oil (TEO) supplementation on performance, egg quality, and serum and faecal mineral composition in chukar partridges (Alectoris chukar).
Area of study: Türkiye.
Material and methods: Ninety-layer partridges, aged 32 weeks, were randomly assigned to five groups. Within each group, there were six replicates with three birds/replicate. The experimental design included a control group receiving a basal diet (0 mg/kg TEO) and four treatment groups with diets supplemented with TEO at 50, 100, 150, and 200 mg/kg over 56 days.
Main results: The results showed no significant differences in performance parameters among the groups (p>0.05). However, egg production and mass were significantly higher in the 50 mg/kg TEO group than in the control group (p<0.01). Additionally, eggshell thickness and yolk index were improved in the 50 mg/kg group compared to the 100 mg/kg group (p<0.05). Serum and faecal mineral compositions did not differ significantly among the experimental groups (p>0.05).
Research highlights: These results suggest that incorporating TEO at 50 mg/kg into the diet of chukar partridges may be optimal, as higher concentrations could potentially interfere with nutrient absorption and negatively affect partridge attributes. Nevertheless, further research is needed to elucidate the mechanisms of action of TEO´s active ingredients in partridge feed.
Effect of Acromioclavicular Joint Injuries on the Acromioclavicular Joint Complex and Scapulohumeral Rhythm: A Functional and Mechanical Perspective
Authors: Kibler W. Ben , Stone Austin V. , Grantham Jeffrey , Sciascia Aaron
Published: February 2025

This overview approaches the acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) and ACJ injuries from a mechanical perspective that places the ACJ complex—the scapula, clavicle, ACJ, AC and coracoclavicular ligaments, and periscapular muscles—into the context of its ability to facilitate scapulohumeral rhythm (SHR) functions of scapula placement and humeral mobility. Mechanical concepts underlying this perspective include linkage of the scapula and clavicle into a single segment, the “claviscapula,” the role of the AC and coracoclavicular ligaments in torque transduction and horizontal and vertical stability, and the deleterious effects of decoupling the claviscapular segment. The clinical examination and surgical treatment should address anatomic restoration of individual structures and the effect on the functional integrity of the entire ACJ complex within SHR. This context, which unifies anatomic injury with functional consequences, can be used to create a more comprehensive understanding of the clinical presentation and effect on ACJ function and SHR.
The Discordance Between Pain and Imaging in Knee Osteoarthritis
Authors: Hill Brandon G. , Eble Stephanie , Moschetti Wayne E. , Schilling Peter L.
Published: February 2025

Introduction:

Clinicians use imaging studies to help gauge the degree to which structural factors within the knee account for patients' pain and symptoms. We aimed to determine the degree to which commonly used structural features predict a patient's knee pain and symptoms.

Methods:

Using Osteoarthritis Initiative data, a 10-year study of 4,796 patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA), participants' KOA was characterized by radiographs and MRI scans of the knee. Salient features were quantified with two established grading systems: (1) individual radiographic features (IRFs) and (2) MRI Osteoarthritis Knee Scores (MOAKS) from MRI scans. We paired participants' IRFs (24,256 readings) and MOAKS (2,851 readings) with side-specific Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Scores (KOOS). We trained generalized linear models to predict KOOS from features measured in IRF and MOAKS. We repeated the analysis on four subsets of the cohort. The models' predictive performance was evaluated using root mean square errors and coefficient of determination (R2).

Results:

Neither radiographic features used to determine IRF grades nor MOAKS were predictive of patient pain or symptoms. MOAKS's performance was slightly more predictive of KOOS than IRF's. IRF's prediction of KOOS achieved a maximum R2 of 0.15 and 0.28 for MOAKS, indicating a low level of accuracy in predicting the target variable.

Discussion:

Commonly used structural features from radiographs and MRI scans cannot predict KOA pain and symptoms—even when imaging features are codified by established grading systems like IRF or MOAKS. The predictive performance of these models is even worse as symptom severity worsens.

The main goal of this paper is a study of a class of more accurate Hilbert-type inequalities involving partial sums. We first derive a
discrete Hilbert-type inequality involving two partial sums and the kernel
1/ max(mλ, nλ). Then, by virtue of the Hardy inequality, we establish a
weaker version of the latter relation involving only one partial sum, as well
as the corresponding equivalent form. In addition, we prove that the constants appearing on the right-hand sides of the established inequalities are the
best possible. Finally, we also give integral analogues of the corresponding
discrete results.

FUNCTIONAL FOODS AND NUTRACEUTICALS: DEFINITIONS AND HEALTH BENEFITS
Authors:   Professor of Medicine, Endocrinology and Clinical Nutrition/Independent Medical Scientist, Brazil., Yin Vieira Borges Julian
Published: February 2025

The terms functional foods and nutraceutical foods are synonymous. Functional foods should be included in the diet as regular food and consumed as part of a regular eating plan to produce general health benefits, such as reducing the risk of various diseases and maintaining physical and mental well-being. The incidence of death due to cardiovascular accidents, cancer, stroke, arteriosclerosis, and liver diseases, among others, can be minimized by changing lifestyle and adopting good eating habits. The bioactive substances found in functional foods can be classified as probiotics and prebiotics, sulfur and nitrogen foods, pigments and vitamins, phenolic compounds, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and fibers. Nutraceuticals are foods or parts of foods that have specific health benefits, including the prevention and/or treatment of diseases. This can range from using isolated nutrients in dietary supplements to engineered or manipulated products, herbal products, and processed foods. Given this, this book aimed to compare functional foods and nutraceuticals in terms of definition, presenting some of the different classes of these compounds and their beneficial effects on health.

PHRASEOLOGICAL UNITS WITH COLOR COMPONENTS AND THEIR IMPORTANCE IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE
Authors: Rajabaliyeva Nodiraxon
Published: February 2025

Phraseological units, often referred to as idiomatic expressions or set phrases, are combinations of words whose meanings are not derived from the individual meanings of their components. In English, many phraseological units incorporate color terms, enriching the language with cultural, emotional, and metaphorical depth. This article explores the role of color-related phraseological units in English, analyzing their origins, cultural significance, and psychological impact. We will also examine how these expressions contribute to the richness of the English language, reflecting societal attitudes, emotional states, and historical contexts. This article offers analysis of phraseological units containing color elements in the English language, uncovering the underlying values, emotions, and cultural attitudes embedded in these expressions. By exploring a range of colors—red, blue, green, white, and black—within idioms, proverbs, and fixed expressions, the study demonstrates how colors move beyond their literal and aesthetic meanings to carry complex evaluative and connotative significance. The research adopts a multimodal approach, integrating qualitative analysis of cultural, historical, and emotional contexts with quantitative analysis of the distribution and frequency of color-based PUs across different types of texts. The findings emphasize the importance of color in English phraseology as a medium for conveying a wide range of human experiences, emotions, and cultural narratives. This axiological framework not only enriches our understanding of the emotive and connotative power of language but also highlights the influential role of cultural values in shaping linguistic expressions. The study makes a valuable contribution to the field of linguistic axiology by providing insights into how language reflects and constructs societal values and attitudes through the lens of color.

The Political Discourse in “Animal Farm” by George Orwell: A Critical Discourse Study
Authors: AL-dihaymawee Doaa Taher Matrood
Published: February 2025

Animal Farm is considered one of the creations of political and social criticism, as Orwell established a satirical method in achieving a kind of humor to disdain the communist regime and criticize the dictatorial policy, using animals as a type of disparagement of the ruling class, because they were characterized by the dictatorial tone covered by socialism and democracy, and this is what made the author accurate even in choosing characters, method of dialogue, and moving between events. This paper is a critical discourse analysis (CDA) of political ideology in “Animal Farm”. A limited number of studies have applied essential theories of discourse to literary work in general and modern fiction in particular. Rogti (2019) [9] studies the techniques in teaching English literature according to CDA. Yasa (2020) [15] examines students' abilities to analyze literary works in higher studies, according to CDA.
Moreover, Hossain (2022) [4] studied Critical Discourse Analysis of Literary Texts from classes two to eight. To fill this gap in the study, the researchers use van Dijk's (1998) [11] ideological square and Wodak’s (2001; 2009) [10] discourse-historical. This study aimed to analyze the false democratic character and the artificial democratic representation represented by the government that came through the revolution to make it a type of rule and control over the people and also to analyze the characters according to the political representation and literary motive.
Cross-Market Linkages: Analyzing NIFTY50’s Relationship with Major Asian Indices
Authors:   Associate Professor1, MBA, Faculty of Management Studies,  CMS Business School2, Jain (Deemed-to-be university), Bengaluru., Sinha Dr. Rupesh Kumar
Published: February 2025

The international financial markets are increasingly interconnected, and each stock index affects others based on economic linkages, sentiment, and capital flows. The current study explores the spillover relationship between NIFTY50 and six major global stock indices: KOSPI (South Korea), HK50 (Hong Kong), FTSE (United Kingdom), NIKKEI225 (Japan), SSEC (China), and TSEC50 (Taiwan). These relationships are important for investors, policymakers, and financial economists to understand market integration and risk diversification approaches.

Through statistical methods, the study establishes the significance of these relations with hypothesis testing and variance inflation factor (VIF) test. Findings yield KOSPI, HK50, FTSE, NIKKEI225, and TSEC50 to have a significant relationship with NIFTY50 but not SSEC index. That indicates that Shanghai Composite Index does not rely on the Indian stock market, and that could be due to structural differences, regulatory barriers, or other economic fundamentals of the two economies.

Furthermore, the multicollinearity test also reveals that most of the indices possess a variance inflation factor of below the cut-off value of 10 except for TSEC50, whose VIF is nearly 18, demonstrating too much correlation with NIFTY50. Strong multicollinearity demonstrates that TSEC50 can be prone to distorting regression estimates and model specification must be undertaken carefully in order to make correct inferences.

These findings add to overall stock market integration literature through their provision of precise evidence on the spillover effect between NIFTY50 and a few foreign indices. The findings have implications for diversification of portfolios as investors would consider correlations between these indices when making investment decisions. These findings can also be employed by policymakers in order to observe how developments across the world impact the stability of domestic finance.

Alternative Accommodation and Its Potential Effects on A Destination -	A Study on Puducherry Region
Authors:   Department of Tourism Studies, Pondicherry University, Puducherry, India e, Srikar Dammu Viswas Evan
Published: February 2025

: Tourism in the Union Territory of Puducherry is showing signs of recovery after a long period of stagnation due to the COVID-19 pandemic. According to officials from the Ministry of Tourism and representatives of the hospitality industry, the number of tourists is increasing, which brings new opportunities and various challenges for the host community and the tourism industry in the region. With a paradigm shift in tourist flows and tourist concerns about post-pandemic travel, this research effort highlights emerging gaps in the hotel market for host communities, tour operators and policy makers, with a particular focus on the alternative accommodation sector in Puducherry which has a unique physical distribution of the properties in close proximities with local residential areas and within community neighbourhoods. Alternative accommodation plays a greater role in catering visitors to Pondicherry than classified hotels with more than 95% of the tourist accommodation falling under the unclassified hotel segment. This gives rise to the question if alternative accommodation really is still an alternative in Puducherry. Unlike many other tourist destinations that have classified hotels and resorts of established groups and chains with star categories constitute the major chunk of the hospitality sector. Operating alternative accommodations can present opportunities for immediate economic benefits to the host community, while also being challenging, such as, safety and security, pollution (air, noise, water, culture pollution, etc.) within the host community and the location of the alternative accommodations.

This study uses an exploratory research approach to interpret and analyse the current phenomena; the full data used for this study was obtained from secondary sources. The authors analyse government statistics, programs and strategies and attempt to examine various business models based on qualitative and statistical data collected from various sources, trying to identify as many post-pandemic opportunities and challenges in the alternative accommodation as possible. Additionally, it presents some factors to consider when venturing into the tourist accommodation business. The study aims to provide significant implications for ensuring the sustainable development of the hospitality industry in Pondicherry.

A proposed framework for achieving higher levels of outcome-based learning using generative AI in education
Authors: Shanto Shakib Sadat , Ahmed Zishan , Jony Akinul Islam
Published: February 2025

Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) systems like ChatGPT have gained popularity due to their ability to generate human-like text. Educators are exploring how to leverage these systems to facilitate and promote learning and develop skills and abilities. This study proposes a conceptual framework aimed at facilitating outcome-based learning through the utilization of GAI tools. The overall aim of this study is to provide a way for integrating GAI to support outcome-based education paradigms focused on learning objectives by aiding cognitive ability development according to Bloom's taxonomy. This paper introduces a framework called the ACE Framework (AI-Enhanced Cognition for Outcome-Based Learning), which organizes the integration of emerging large language models to facilitate advanced analysis, synthesis, and evaluation, as defined by Bloom's taxonomy, from basic knowledge recall to complex conceptualization. To empirically assess the effectiveness of unaided and GAI-assisted approaches, an analysis of real-world scenarios was conducted, where 20 college students created open-ended written solutions. For every response set, human raters classified shown cognitive abilities into Bloom's levels. In structured GAI integration exercises, participants learnt about problems using models such as GPT-4 and framed analytical answers. Comparative benchmarking reveals significant enhancements in average ratings from predominant comprehension (3.35) to top-tier synthesis (4.85) after AI scaffolding based on the methodology. With six students reaching the highest evaluation tier, guided AI interactions showcase excellent ability to promote outcome-based learning. Despite limitations in sample size and assessment techniques requiring further investigation, results align with priorities of outcome-driven education models prioritizing higher-order cognition -- substantiating structured AI incorporation potential.

Studying the history of the native land in a modern Russian school: the main problems and approaches to their solution
Authors: Lyubichankovskiy Sergey Valentinovich , Loginov Evgeny Igorevich
Published: February 2025

Today, it is safe to say that society has come to understand the critical importance of patriotic education of the individual at various levels. Special attention in this issue is paid to the tasks facing teachers, schools and the education system as a whole. The main source of patriotic qualities is the history of Russia. Love for the Motherland, the native land, a sense of pride for our compatriots of the past and present, in addition to the all-Russian character, is closely connected with the place of our birth and life, where our student and work path begins. The history of the native land makes it possible to make historical representations less abstract: it shows the student that history is being created here and that not only previous generations, but also, we contribute to the development of our state. The history of the subjects of our country forms the all-Russian history, which is also important for understanding in the process of personality development. Studying the history of our native land is able to form this understanding, and therefore a person who is ready to create, care for and improve the established foundations of life in our society. The relevance of studying the history of the native land is dictated by the consequences of globalization, which consist in the fading of ties between generations of relatives, the oblivion of traditions and spiritual values of peoples.

Hospitals worldwide are increasingly concerned about the performance of outpatient services, which contribute significantly to their revenue and are projected to surpass inpatient services in importance. As the demand for medical care continues to grow, outpatient services could generate even greater financial returns for hospitals. This study aims to evaluate patient service wait times at Stella Maris Hospital Makassar's outpatient department using the lean methodology. A mixed-methods approach was employed, involving the measurement of wait times for 100 patients and interviews with eight informants, including the head of the outpatient department (1 person), admission officers (3 individuals), the hospital director (1 person), and nurses (3 individuals). The interview data were analyzed through processes of data reduction, visualization, and conclusion formulation. A patient care process flowchart was created to assess data quality. Findings indicate the absence of an integrated hospital information system (SIMRS), leading to issues such as long queues at the pick-up counter, delays in doctor availability, and inefficiencies in order processing. Recommendations include integrating SIMRS across the hospital, implementing system improvements, and quantifying outcomes for effective decision-making.

Stress and burnout among healthcare workers represent a global crisis with significant implications for psychological and physical health, job performance, and interpersonal skills. These conditions are linked to anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, substance use, poor quality of life, digestive disorders, and cardiovascular diseases. Burnout is characterized by emotional fatigue, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment, often caused by chronic workplace stress. Factors such as demographics, fatigue, and resilience influence its development and severity. Traditional stress management interventions, such as counselling and leave, often prove insufficient in addressing these challenges. Recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) provide innovative tools for stress and burnout management, including mobile applications offering mindfulness, meditation, and self-care resources. AI systems like IBM Watson and Google DeepMind are being tested to enhance accessibility and effectiveness in stress management. Additionally, Stress Inoculation Training (SIT), involving methods such as meditation, yoga, cognitive-behavioural therapy, and biofeedback, has been recognized as a proactive approach to mitigating stress. This review explores the factors contributing to stress and burnout in healthcare workers and evaluates interventions aimed at improving well-being and productivity, emphasizing the potential of AI and SIT in preventing and managing these conditions.
