На основе двухкомпонентных гидрогелей альгинат натрия-хитозан с включением магнетита и последующей сушкой в среде сверхкритического диоксида углерода получены композитные аэрогели. Экспериментально подобраны оптимальная концентрация магнетита, вводимого в систему альгинат натрия-хитозан, и режим сверхкритической сушки композитных гидрогелей в среде диоксида углерода, позволяющие получить аэрогель с максимально развитой пористой структурой. Методом низкотемпературной адсорбции азота показано, что полученные аэрогели характеризуются развитой мезопористой структурой с открытыми цилиндрическими порами, максимальная удельная поверхность составляет 300 м2/г. Экспериментальные исследования показали, что разработанные композитные магнетитсодержащие аэрогели обладают высокой бактерицидной активностью по отношению к S. aureus, E. coli и B. subtilis, благодаря чему они имеют большой потенциал для создания на их основе различных медицинских изделий, в том числе раневых покрытий, носителей активных лекарственных веществ, гемостатических или сорбционных материалов.

Composite aerogels were obtained based on two-component sodium alginate—chitosan hydrogels with the inclusion of magnetite and subsequent drying in supercritical carbon dioxide. The optimal concentration of magnetite introduced into the sodium alginate— chitosan system and the mode of supercritical drying of composite hydrogels in the carbon dioxide were experimentally established, making it possible to obtain the aerogel with a maximally developed porous structure. Using the method of low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, it was shown that the resulting aerogels are characterized by a developed mesoporous structure with open cylindrical pores, the maximum specific surface is 300 m2/g. Experimental studies have shown that the developed composite magnetite-containing aerogels have high bactericidal activity against S. aureus, E. coli and B. subtilis, due to which they have great potential for creating various medical products based on them, including wound dressings, carriers active medicinal substances, hemostatic or sorption materials.

Published: November 2024

In addressing the thermal management issues of three-dimensional stacking of integrated chips (3D-ICs), we propose to introduce an aluminum nitride coating by an aerosol deposition method as a chiplet encapsulation material. The deposition rate of the thick AlN film on a Si substrate reaches as high as 1.1 m/min without damaging the substrate by adjusting the material powder size. Additionally, we demonstrate excellent fillability in trenches corresponding to the size between chiplets, which ensures its applicability for a novel molding process of 3D-ICs.

Entrepreneurs are often faced with many challenges world over. One of their greatest challenges is role conflict which has a devastating effect on organisational and family domains. This study underscored work-life balance among women hair dressers in Abakaliki metropolis, Ebonyi State Nigeria. The study was anchored on Border theory
by Clerk S. C. Survey design was employed with the use of structured questionnaire. Data were purposively gathered from 384 female participants. Greater number of the participants had their First School Leaving Certificate and Senior Secondary Certificates (81.94%). Majority of the participants (49.17%) were married, while 36.11% were single. Most of them (86.11%) were Christians, while 1.66% was Muslim. Results show that hair dressing is labour intensive (83.33%), working hours in the salon are lengthy and demanding (81.94%) and does not spare one time for family and leisure (87.5%), work domain has significant and negative effect on the performance of women hair dressers (r = -0.424, P-value: 0.000). It is difficult to manage work and family responsibilities (83.33%), multiple work responsibilities contribute to slack in family responsibilities (91.67%), family life does not affect job efficiency (91.67%), family responsibility affect hair dressing business negatively (83.33%). This implies that family domain has significant and negative effect on the performance of women hair dressers (r = – 0.783. P- value: 0.000). The study recommends that the hair dressers should have a work schedule that does not conflict with both their personal and family work domains as this would help to improve their work-life balance.
Cultural Practices and Women’s Rights among Idoma and Ogugu Peoples of North-Central, Nigeria: Implications for Poverty Reduction and Sustainable Development
Authors: Atoyebi Timothy Abayomi , Yunusa Edime
Published: November 2024

Discrimination against women has assumed a central position in discussions globally and, in particular many less developed countries of sub-Saharan Africa. A plethora of discussions on women’s discrimination tends to pay scant attention to the impediments of cultural practices and traditional beliefs. These impediments have had implications for poverty reduction and sustainable development in relevant Nigerian communities. Most women in Nigeria are largely poor and are currently living below the poverty line. Though several studies have investigated the issue of culture and women’s rights in Nigeria, limited investigations have been conducted on the challenges of balancing cultural practices and traditional beliefs with sustainable development in Nigeria. Employing the marxian feminist perspective, the paper adopted the use of secondary data to examine the challenges of some cultural practices and traditional beliefs in Nigeria. In particular, the paper highlights certain cultural practices among the Idoma and Ogugu in Benue and Kogi states respectively, that exemplify the impingement of culture on the feminization of poverty. In addition, the paper examined some traditional beliefs such as inheritance of women by their deceased husband’s relation, widow’s succession rights, refund of bride price after divorce and divorce related stigmatization.
On the Accuracy and Precision of Moving Averages to Estimate Wi-Fi Link Quality
Authors: Cena Gianluca , Formis Gabriele , Rosani Matteo , Scanzio Stefano
Published: November 2024

The radio spectrum is characterized by a noticeable variability, which impairs performance and determinism of every wireless communication technology. To counteract this aspect, mechanisms like Minstrel are customarily employed in real Wi-Fi devices, and the adoption of machine learning for optimization is envisaged in next-generation Wi-Fi 8. All these approaches require communication quality to be monitored at runtime. In this paper, the effectiveness of simple techniques based on moving averages to estimate wireless link quality is analyzed, to assess their advantages and weaknesses. Results can be used, e.g., as a baseline when studying how artificial intelligence can be employed to mitigate unpredictability of wireless networks by providing reliable estimates about current spectrum conditions.

Authors: Tzitzika Lito , Stravakou Pela A.
Published: November 2024

The evaluation of educational work is one of the most pressing issues in education. Its implementation in Greece during the 2022-2023 school year, after a forty-year absence, presents a significant topic for both theoretical and empirical investigation. This study aims to explore this issue by first providing a theoretical examination of educational evaluation, clarifying key terms, and presenting its most critical aspects. The legal framework of teacher evaluation over the years is outlined, culminating in an analysis of the 2021 law, with its application examined through the research findings. The research part of this study investigates the perspectives of educators and administrators regarding the evaluation of educational work, particularly focusing on its implementation over the last two school years. The findings reveal that, in most cases, the evaluation was carried out in accordance with current legislation. However, certain aspects of the process, criteria, evaluators, and outcomes were identified as problematic or unclear, requiring improvements and clarifications to ensure the objectivity and effectiveness of the evaluation. Despite some concerns, teachers do not oppose the evaluation of their work; they consider it necessary and express a willingness to contribute their insights to the state, as they are the ultimate recipients and implementers of any educational evaluation legislation.

Published: November 2024

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted health, social life, and economies, with effects that are still unfolding globally. While much research has been devoted to understanding the acute phase of the virus, there’s limited insight into the lingering symptoms that can affect people’s well-being long after initial recovery, particularly in cases with moderate severity. Recognizing and addressing these persistent issues is essential to fully support patient recovery. Objective: This study focuses on understanding the residual symptoms experienced by patients three months after a moderate COVID-19 diagnosis. The study is centered on individuals who sought care at Dubai Health Authority’s Fever Clinics in Al Badaa and Al Khawaneej, aiming to pinpoint symptom patterns and provide insights into patient recovery trajectories. Methods: In this retrospective study, we analyzed records from 394 individuals diagnosed with moderate COVID-19 between June and December 2020. To qualify for inclusion, patients needed a confirmed moderate diagnosis, characterized by a fever above 38°C or mild-to-moderate pneumonia as observed in chest X-rays. Patients completed an 18-question survey about lingering symptoms, and data were analyzed using Chi-square and T-tests to assess patterns across different demographics and clinical characteristics, with p < 0.05 as the threshold for significance. Results: Out of the 394 participants (68% male, 32% female), 22.1% reported ongoing symptoms three months after their initial diagnosis. The most frequently cited issues were body pain (24.1%), sleep disturbances such as insomnia (21.8%), breathing difficulties (dyspnea) and fatigue (both 20.7%), and feelings of anxiety (19.5%). These symptoms were more common among patients aged 31-49 and those with chronic conditions, especially hypertension, highlighting specific groups that may require additional post-recovery support. Conclusion: Persistent symptoms are common among individuals recovering from moderate COVID-19 infections, varying according to age, existing health conditions, and marital status. Screening and targeted support measures may help address these lingering effects, aiding recovery and quality of life for affected individuals.
Domestic Private Investment in Gambia: Are Macroeconomic Fundamentals Potent Determinants?
Authors: Owuzo Sunday Ugbo , Egbon Peter Chukwuyem , Ezi Chukwugoziem Tom
Published: November 2024

The Gambia is one of the economies that have made several developmental and industrialization attempts to reposition its economy. One of the channels adopted to enforce these attempts is the channel of domestic private investment. A retinue of statistical and econometric tests such as descriptive statistics, correlation matrix and the Autoregressive Distributed Lags (ARDL) Bounds testing procedure were employed to evaluate the empirical content of the domestic private investment-macroeconomic determinants model. Exchange rate, GDP, credit to private sector, Real Interest Rate, Inflation and money supply were empirically identified as potent exogenous variables in the domestic private investment-macroeconomic determinants model. The results indicated that interest rate, exchange rate and money supply are not statistically significant in explaining the performance of domestic private investment in the Gambia. Real Interest Rate, Real Exchange Rate, Inflation all performed below expectation. Credit to the private sector of the Gambia economy has contributed significantly and effectively to the boosting of domestic private investment in the Gambia due to the quantum of credit channeled to the economy. The study therefore suggests that exchange rate, interest rate and money supply policies should be formulated and implemented to boost domestic investment level in Gambia. The Gambian economy should prioritize the promotion of domestic private investment, as well as debasing and eliminating multi-variate barriers to domestic investment that stifle domestic private investment initiative or involvement of local investors in business ventures.

Objective: To provide an update on asthma mortality trends in Brazil and its regions between 2014 and 2021. Methods: This was a retrospective descriptive observational study based on asthma mortality data from the Brazilian National Ministry of Health Mortality Database for the 2014-2021 period. Results: In the study period, there were 18,584 asthma deaths in Brazil, with an annual increase of 2.5%, corresponding to 0.03 deaths/100,000 population (95% CI, 0.01-0.04; p = 0.01). The northeastern region of the country had the highest prevalence of asthma deaths (1.50 deaths/100,000 population), and the southern region showed the greatest variation in the study period (44%). We observed a higher proportion of deaths among females and elderly patients, and when analyzing asthma deaths by place of occurrence, we observed that 28% of all deaths occurred at home. Conclusions: Asthma mortality remains high and shows an increasing trend for the first time in the past decades. This constitutes an important public health concern, given the treatable nature of the disease.
The Influence of Employer Branding on Intention to Apply, mediated by Organization Reputation and Person-Organization Fit in Generation Z Talent Candidates
Authors: Jordan Muhammad Hazel , Desiana Putri Mega
Published: November 2024

This study aims to examine how employer branding influences intention to apply among potential Generation Z candidates. In practice, research related to employer branding has not been common and studied in more depth, especially on potential Generation Z talent candidates, therefore this study seeks to fill the gap in previous academic literature examining similar topics, In addition, this study also seeks to examine the mediating role of organization reputation and person-organization fit in the influence of employer branding on intention to apply. The sample in this study consisted of 251 final year students and fresh graduates from 10 top universities in Indonesia. Mediation analysis was conducted using structural equation modeling. The findings of this study show that the relationship between employer branding and intention to apply is positive and significant. In addition, empirical evidence also shows the role of organization reputation in increasing the influence of employer branding dimensions on intention to apply. In addition, the results show that organization reputation partially mediates the effect of employer branding on intention to apply, which emphasizes the need to align the dimensions of employer branding with organization reputation in strengthening its effect on intention to apply. Employer branding is important to be a current and future investment priority for employer companies that enable companies to attract top talent, improve organizational reputation and help companies achieve a better position in the job market.
A Case Report: A 11-Years Old Female with Retinitis Pigmentosa
Authors: Vania Vania , Faozan Faozan , Felix Felix
Published: November 2024

Retinitis pigmentosa is a hereditary retinal neurodegenerative disease with the classic presentation of night blindness (nyctalopia), with gradual degeneration of vision until blindness). This study aims to analyze a clinical case of retinitis pigmentosa (RP) in an 11-year-old female with primary symptoms of nyctalopia, progressing visual impairment, and distinctive retinal pigmentation changes identified during funduscopy. RP is a hereditary retinal degenerative condition that commonly presents as night blindness, progressing to severe vision loss or blindness. In this case, a comprehensive physical and ophthalmic examination revealed decreased visual acuity, refractive errors, and vascular attenuation, characteristic of RP, without systemic abnormalities or familial history, classifying it as a sporadic case. Given that RP is typically inherited in autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked patterns, sporadic cases are rarer and require careful diagnosis. This study underscores the importance of thorough ocular assessments, particularly fundus examinations, in identifying early retinal changes in RP, as well as the challenges in diagnosis without a family history. The findings emphasize that, while RP is primarily ocular, extraocular manifestations in syndromic forms also exist. RP remains a major cause of blindness worldwide, and while emerging treatments—such as gene therapy and retinal implants—offer new potential, a standardized management protocol is yet to be established. This study advocates for continued research into targeted therapeutic options to improve outcomes and quality of life for RP patients, and highlights the need for early diagnosis and ongoing monitoring to manage disease progression effectively.

Chronic tophaceous gout – an uncommon culprit of median nerve compression in the wrist and distal forearm
Authors: Cheong Wan Lye , Looi Collin Seng Kim , Liew Siew Khei , Mohamed Saaid Firdati , Arumugam Manohar
Published: November 2024

Objective: Chronic tophaceous gout can lead to significant complications beyond joint damage, including compression neuropathies. Gouty tophi involving the flexor tendons are a rare but notable cause of median nerve entrapment. This report aims to highlight the clinical presentation, diagnostic process, and surgical management required for effective treatment.
Case: We present the case of a male patient in his 60s with chronic tophaceous gout, who developed median nerve entrapment due to intratendinous gouty tophi compressing the nerve. The patient reported numbness in the right hand, specifically over the median nerve distribution, accompanied by thenar muscle atrophy and a palpable mass over the volar wrist. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed the presence of gouty tophi within the flexor tendons causing median nerve compression. The surgical intervention included an extended open carpal tunnel release, debulking of the tophi, removal of adhesions, and excision of inflamed tendon sheaths. Six months post-surgery, the patient showed significant improvement in hand numbness and grip strength, with no wound complications noted.
Conclusion: This case underscores the importance of considering tophaceous gout as a differential diagnosis in cases of atypical median nerve entrapment. Routine carpal tunnel release alone may be insufficient. Comprehensive management, including the debulking of tophi, adhesiolysis, and tenosynovectomy, is essential to relieve nerve compression and enhance tendon mobility.

En los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje del siglo XXI, se requiere la implementación de estrategias metodológicas innovadoras que permitan la aprehensión del conocimiento, el análisis constante de su pertinencia y la aplicabilidad no fragmentada en diversos contextos. Este artículo presenta los resultados de investigación doctoral asociada a la propuesta Ciencia, Tecnología, Arte, Emocionalidad y Matemáticas basada en el método STEAM en cuanto a las evidencias de aprendizaje de los estudiantes y la información obtenida de la implementación de un cuestionario de percepción en los procesos de aprendizaje cooperativo, la resolución de problemas y la formación emocional. Con la investigación se determinó el impacto de la propuesta en el aprendizaje interdisciplinar de los estudiantes de grado séptimo del Colegio Marruecos y Molinos I.E.D. de la ciudad de Bogotá, Colombia. Lo anterior, a partir de la descripción de las sesiones de clase, los aprendizajes adquiridos por parte de los estudiantes y la implementación de un cuestionario de percepción. Se empleó un enfoque cuantitativo con un diseño cuasi experimental y los resultados obtenidos en el proceso muestran la necesidad de modificar y flexibilizar los currículos educativos de la actualidad cuya fragmentación aleja cada vez más el conocimiento de la realidad. La propuesta interdisciplinar Ciencia, Tecnología, Arte, Emocionalidad y Matemáticas se convierte en un referente teórico-práctico que permite generar en los estudiantes mayor motivación e interés a partir de la incorporación de aspectos propios de las metodologías activas de enseñanza, las necesidades actuales de la educación y las demandas de la sociedad

Este escrito expone el diseño, la implementación y validación de una propuesta didáctica usando la robótica educativa vista como interdisciplina, con el fin de fortalecer los procesos de aprendizaje que se trabajan desde el área de tecnología e informática en la educación media de los colegios públicos de Bogotá. Para alcanzar los objetivos propuestos en esta investigación, se toma como base la perspectiva epistemológica del paradigma mixto, usando un diseño en esa línea con preponderancia cualitativa dominante. En conjunto, esta investigación contribuye al diseño de una propuesta didáctica para la enseñanza de la robótica, integrando múltiples conocimientos; para esto se realiza una apuesta interdisciplinar, ya que hasta el momento se le ha dado un trato a esta tecnología de forma disciplinar. Lo anterior ha impedido mostrar el gran potencial integrador de conocimientos que tiene la robótica, que además motiva a los estudiantes en la construcción de un aprendizaje contextualizado, lúdico y divertido. Existe un vacío conceptual en el que no se evidencia una didáctica concreta para la enseñanza de la robótica educativa, porque es trabajada desde metodologías que vienen de otras áreas del conocimiento como el Design Thinking, diseñado para la ingeniería industrial; el aprendizaje basado en problemas, creado para la medicina y el STEM, que fue proyectado para las Ciencias Naturales, la Tecnología, la Ingeniería y las Matemáticas. Como resultado se logró el diseño, la construcción y la validación de una propuesta didáctica particular para la robótica educativa, que aportará en los procesos de enseñanza en la educación media.

El presente artículo de investigación tiene como propósito mostrar los resultados de la sistematización de experiencias llevada a cabo en el colegio público La Felicidad, en educación inicial, entre los años 2018 y 2023. Es un proyecto formativo dispuesto desde la perspectiva STEM, en un contexto denominado aulas vivas. Los resultados evidencian un modelo pedagógico conectado por una perspectiva experiencial y situada, que promueve en primera infancia la formación STEM mediante el desarrollo de acciones proambientales, desplegadas desde contextos urbanos ecológicos, en el marco de las ciencias naturales; una alternativa innovadora, práctica y contextual que además facilita el encuentro entre la escuela y la comunidad. Las conclusiones indican que el enfoque STEM puede entrelazarse con procesos formativos de educación en ciudadanía ambiental, en el ámbito educativo institucional formal, por medio de la creación de ambientes denominados aulas vivas, para fomentar un compromiso activo y consciente con el medio, aplicable no solo a la primera infancia, sino a otros niveles. Adicionalmente, se destaca la importancia que tiene dicha integración en los niños y niñas, por su disposición a explorar el mundo que los rodea, tejiéndose así una oportunidad única para incorporar conceptos de Ciencias Naturales, Matemáticas, Ingeniería y Tecnología a través del prisma del cuidado ambiental. Promoviendo esta unión, se establecen los cimientos para una ciudadanía éticamente responsable, resaltando la importancia de una orientación multidisciplinar en la formación en ciudadanía ambiental, en la cual los procesos educativos no se limiten a disciplinas separadas, sino a la incorporación de un enfoque holístico.
Padres al pupitre: la neuroeducación al servicio de la familia. Estudio comparativo

Este artículo expone el desarrollo de un trabajo de investigación desde la neuroeducación, una perspectiva de Mora, quien sustenta una propuesta basada en el estudio académico del cerebro y las emociones, con el propósito de abordar la multidimensionalidad del núcleo familiar. Se plantea la necesidad de analizar la incidencia de la neuroeducación en procesos de orientación familiar y formación emocional en padres de familia o cuidadores, en el desempeño emocional de sus hijos, a través de las herramientas otorgadas en escuela de padres por parte de la orientación escolar. Participaron veinte familias (papá, mamá o cuidador y su hijo o acudido correspondiente) de las Instituciones Educativas Distritales Fernando Mazuera Villegas e Ismael Perdomo, jornada tarde, grado octavo, ubicadas en la ciudad de Bogotá. A través de una metodología con enfoque mixto, método en teoría fundamentada y un alcance de orden explicativo, se evidencia que las remisiones por situaciones de presunta violencia disminuyeron un 15 % en la primera institución, y 10%, en la segunda. Además, los estudiantes y quien recibió el proceso de formación, expresan una mejoría en el entorno familiar, al conciliar o llegar a acuerdos con sus hijos mediante otra manera de posicionar la autoridad, comprender la crianza, acompañar el crecimiento y vincular la formación emocional. En conclusión, la educación a padres de familia debe tener prioridad dentro de las instituciones educativas para minimizar los procesos de violencia que enfrentan niños y adolescentes.

The abuse of narcotics among the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) personnel is a serious issue that can undermine the integrity and professionalism of the military. The Telegram Letter of the TNI Commander Number ST/398/2009 regarding the Dismissal of TNI Personnel Involved in Narcotics Abuse serves as a legal basis to address this problem. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the TNI Commander’s Telegram Letter Number ST/398/2009 in the dismissal of personnel involved in narcotics abuse, and its correlation with the values of the Sapta Marga, the Soldier’s Oath, and the 8 Obligations of TNI. This research uses a normative juridical approach with qualitative analysis, examining regulations, legal norms, and their application in the context of military discipline. The study findings indicate that the implementation of the TNI Commander’s Telegram Letter Number ST/398/2009 has been carried out fairly well, although there are still challenges in the enforcement of dismissals and discipline in the field. The values of Sapta Marga, the Soldier’s Oath, and the 8 Obligations of TNI are essential foundations in making dismissal decisions, as an effort to maintain the image and honor of the TNI.
