Authors: Ogunsipe Olugbenga Adebayo , Makgakga Tšhegofatšo Phuti
Published: October 2024

The use of scientific calculators in teaching parabola functions has been shown to have significant effect in learner performance. This study examined the effectiveness of scientific calculators’ usage in the teaching and learning of Grade 11 parabola functions to improve learner performance.  Bandura’s observational learning theory underpinned this study. A non-equivalent quazi-experimental design was espoused to collect data from the experimental and control groups. A pre-test and a post-test were administered to both experimental group and control group  in the same day and at the same time, to avoid contamination of results.  Wilcoxon-Rank sum test was used to determine the significant difference between the two study groups. The results showed that the experimental group  performed significantly better than the control groupin the post-test after the implementation of scientific calculators in teaching parabola functions. The study suggests that scientific calculators can be used to teach parabola functions to improve learner performance and advance teacher content knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge and professional development.

Authors: Macías Antón Merly Celeste , Zambrano Montes Lubis Carmita
Published: October 2024

Los ambientes de aprendizaje bien diseñados y utilizados potencian el desarrollo cognitivo, emocional, social y físico de los infantes para un futuro exitoso. El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar el uso de los ambientes de aprendizaje y su influencia en el desarrollo integral en niños y niñas de centros de educación inicial del circuito 03 de la ciudad de Portoviejo, Ecuador. La investigación se basó en un enfoque cuali-cuantitativo y fue de tipo descriptiva. Para la recolección de información se utilizaron técnicas de encuesta y ficha de observación dirigida a docentes, además de entrevistas a expertos. Los resultados evidencian la necesidad de mejorar los ambientes de aprendizaje, limitado uso de estrategias y recursos para potenciar el desarrollo, y un débil uso de competencias asertivas en la interacción con infantes. También se identificó la ausencia de prácticas de evaluación de destrezas posterior de las experiencias de aprendizaje. Se concluye que, aunque los docentes comprenden la importancia de los ambientes de aprendizaje para potenciar el desarrollo de destrezas en educación inicial, estos ambientes no se encuentran completamente implementados ni adecuados, lo que constituye una limitación significativa que puede tener repercusiones a corto y largo plazo en infantes.

Breast cancer is a severe global disease for women as the number of deaths increases annually. Therefore, attempts to find new anticancer agents are critical and inevitable. In this work, we report the investigation on the anticancer activity of xanthone and cinnamoylbenzene compounds against two breast cancer cell lines, i.e., T47D and MCF-7, through experimental in vitro and theoretical in silico assays. Xanthone and cinnamoylbenzene exhibit anticancer activity with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 136.7–194.3 and 235.8–262.4 µg/mL against T47D and MCF-7 cancer cells, respectively. Cinnamoylbenzene generates less cytotoxicity to normal Vero cells with a selectivity index of 1.095–2.102. The molecular docking studies agree with the experimental data in which cinnamoylbenzene is more active against T47D with an IC50 of 136.7 µg/mL due to Topoisomerase II inhibition through π-π stacked interactions with Adenine12 and Guanine13 nitrogen bases. Meanwhile, xanthone is more active against MCF-7 with an IC50 of 235.8 µg/mL due to EGFR inhibition through van der Waals interaction and hydrogen bond with Glutamic acid767 and Methionine769 amino acid residues, respectively. Additionally, the pharmacokinetic parameters of xanthone and cinnamoylbenzene are predicted through absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET) analysis, and they show better suitability than doxorubicin as the commercial anticancer drug.

THE EVOLVING LANDSCAPE OF INVESTOR PROTECTION: BALANCING STATE SOVEREIGNTY AND INVESTOR RIGHTS IN THE 21ST CENTURY
Authors: Rahmonov Jaloliddin
Published: October 2024

The evolving landscape of investor protection in the 21st century requires a delicate balance between safeguarding investor rights and preserving state sovereignty. As global investments expand, investors seek legal assurances to protect their assets, while states must retain the ability to regulate in the public interest, addressing economic, social, and environmental challenges. This tension has sparked debates about the role of investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) mechanisms and the need for reform. By modernizing investment treaties and dispute resolution processes, the international community can create a more equitable system that fosters both investment and sustainable development, ensuring mutual benefits for investors and states alike.

The minimum age limit for marriage in Islamic Family Law is a provision that regulates the minimum age limit that must be met by individuals before legally entering into a marriage according to the principles of Islamic law. This is intended to protect the parties involved and ensure the physical, mental and emotional maturity of prospective partners before entering into marriage. This research uses a qualitative descriptive approach using literature study methods to investigate differences in minimum age restrictions for marriage between Islamic law and state policy. Data collection was carried out through direct surveys and literature searches from trusted sources, including international journals, books and e-books. The literature study method involves three essential steps: Literature Inventory, Literature Description, and Literature Comparison. The research focus is focused on analyzing laws regarding minimum age limits for marriage in various countries, with an emphasis on comparisons between Islamic legal views and implementation of state policies. The research findings produced several conclusions, including: 1) Differences in approach between Islamic law which does not set a minimum age limit and state policies such as Indonesia (19 years) and Jordan (18 years); 2) Limiting the age of marriage as an effort to protect and mature individuals in living a married life; 3) Rearranged minimum standardization divergence to prevent misuse; 4) Marriage as an institution with noble purposes, interpreted by Islamic law and adopted by the state taking into account local, social and cultural aspects.

According to Law Number 35 of 2009, narcotics are substances or drugs that come from plants or non-plants, whether synthetic or semi-synthetic, which can cause a decrease or change in consciousness, loss of sensation, reduce to eliminate pain, and can lead to addiction, which is classified into groups as attached in Law Number 35 of 2009. Narcotics abuse has become a very serious issue faced by various countries, both in developed and developing countries, and one of them is Indonesia. Indonesia, which initially served as a transit country for narcotics trade, has now been turned into a destination for operations, transactions, sales, and production by international narcotics networks. This is evidenced by the numerous fields containing marijuana plants and factories producing narcotics discovered by law enforcement agencies. The research method used is a normative juridical research type, in line with the author's intended purpose, the methodology in the design of the thesis research uses two approaches, namely the Statute Approach and the Conceptual Approach. The Statute Approach is an approach carried out by examining all laws with the concept of law. The research results show that the criminal law system against members of the police force involved in narcotics trafficking, the Criminal Code only recognizes a maximum criminal system. It must be acknowledged that the emergence of this special minimum criminal sanction aims to make people afraid to commit acts as formulated in the Psychotropic Law. Problems arise when, in a specific case, the judge feels that this special minimum criminal penalty is still very severe, and law enforcement imposes criminal sanctions specified in Law No. 35 of 2009 on members of the police force who abuse narcotics, also imposing administrative sanctions, which are sanctions imposed by the relevant institution, in accordance with the main task of the police force as stated in Article 13 letter b, namely enforcing the law. Therefore, every member of the police force is required to be able to investigate and prosecute any form of criminal activity, which would be contradictory if a member of the police force commits a criminal act, as the police force should be a role model for society in implementing the law and regulations in force.
The Potential Effectiveness of an Ancient Chinese Herbal Formula Yupingfengsan for the Prevention of COVID-19: A Systematic Review
Authors: Yang Xin , Tian Rong , Shi Catherine , Wang Alan
Published: October 2024

The COVID-19 has been spreading all over the world, and human health is at stake. Conventional medicine played an important role in the treatment and syndrome relief, while there is limited research evidence to support any prevention or antiviral treatment for COVID-19. Yupingfengsan is a classic formula with the effect of replenishing qi, consolidating exterior, and arresting sweating. Yupingfengsan has been widely used to treat various diseases in China and Southeast Asia for hundreds of years. Accumulating evidence suggests that YPFS has both immune-regulatory and anti-virus effects clinically, but leaving the mechanism elusive. In this paper, we reviewed the recent progress of Yupingfengsan in immune-regulatory and anti-virus activities, including the effect on mucosal immunity, biological antagonism, macrophages, adaptive immunity, and natural killer cells. From this systematic review, we speculate that YPFS can play an effective role in the prevention of SARS-CoV-2, but further experimental studies are expected to investigate the specific mechanisms. This review suggests an alternative direction for the prevention of COVID-19.

Los manglares son ecosistemas prioritarios para la conservación. Proveen diversos servicios ecosistémicos y son clave para el ciclo vital de muchas especies. Sin embargo, se encuentran amenazados por diversas actividades productivas y por fenómenos naturales como los huracanes, que impactan las costas causando daños en la vegetación. Monitorear los efectos del impacto de huracanes en las zonas de manglar es una tarea compleja, ya que son necesarios muchos recursos para acceder a los sitios devastados y para realizar evaluaciones en grandes superficies. Por ello, los datos de sensores remotos representan herramientas con un gran potencial para el estudio de las zonas más vulnerables. El objetivo principal de este estudio fue evaluar el impacto producido por el huracán Lorena que golpeó el archipiélago de Espíritu Santo, localizado en Baja California Sur, México, en el verano del año 2019. Se utilizaron imágenes del satélite Sentinel-2 tomadas antes (09/09/2019) y después (24/09/2019) del paso del huracán, con las cuales se calcularon cuatro índices de vegetación (IV) relacionados con la actividad fotosintética y el contenido de humedad del dosel. De igual forma, se calculó ΔIV para cada índice, que representa la reducción proporcional del valor del IV después del impacto. Los resultados generales mostraron un incremento de los valores de los cuatro IV en el área de estudio, lo cual podría explicarse por la velocidad del viento relativamente baja y el aporte de agua por la precipitación asociada al huracán Lorena. Sin embargo, los IV utilizados tuvieron una respuesta diferenciada, lo que demuestra la importancia de utilizar más de un indicador en los estudios que evalúen el impacto de fenómenos naturales en la vegetación costera.

IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a rare illness with inflammatory and fibrotic changes in affected organs such as pancreas, thyroid, salivary or lacrimal glands, and retroperitoneal space; rarely other organs may be involved. IgG4-related breast disease (IgG4-BD) is very rare and generally presents as a lump or mastitis. IgG4-BD as a presenting feature of IgG4-RD is extremely rare. Hence, this paper reviews the known (n=48) IgG-BD cases reported in the literature to date. The majority of cases were diagnosed on routine mammography or during assessment for other clinically significant features. The absence of a lump border, and especially the absence of calcifications on ultrasonography, mammography, or computed tomography, is typical for IgG4-BD. Characteristic IgG4-BD pathological findings were dense lymphoplasmacytic infiltration with stromal fibrosis, and more than 10% IgG4+ plasma cells/high-power field (HPF); the mean percentage of IgG4+/IgG+ plasma cells was 54.2%, and only one-third of the patients had all “classical” signs of IgG4-BD including storiform fibrosis and obliterative phlebitis. Most of the cases had a benign course and responded to surgical excision with or without steroid therapy.

On 7 October, 2023 Israel was attacked over the Gaza border by Hamas terrorists. Mostly civilians, approximately 1,200 people were killed, with an additional 251 taken hostage (in addition to 4 abducted before October 7 for a total of 255 hostages), many of whom have since died. Of the total abducted, 13% were older than 65, a third of whom were octogenarians. Brief case histories of three abductees over 80 years of age are presented: two released and one still in captivity. The extreme “pre-morbid” vulnerability of these older hostages is described along with the additional data on their clinical situation and the extreme stresses to which they are being subjected. The situation described constitutes one of the most severe examples of elder abuse documented in the modern era.

Aşk, Mark ve Ölüm (2022) Belgeselinde Göç, Kültür ve Müzik
Authors: Tuğcu Muhammed Said
Published: October 2024

Belgesel sinema gerçeklerin film diliyle aktarıldığı ve yönetmenin özgün yaklaşımının yer aldığı bir film türüdür. 2022 yapımı Aşk, Mark ve Ölüm belgeseli 1961 yılından itibaren Türkiye’den Almanya’ya göçenlerin ve onlardan devam eden nesillerin hikâyesini müzik kültürleri üzerinden anlatmaktadır. Türkiye’den Almanya’ya göç ve etkileri pek çok çalışmada incelenmiştir. Kurmaca filmlerde ve belgesel sinemada göçün nasıl aktarıldığını inceleyen çalışmalar da vardır. Fakat Almanya özelinde ve müzik kültürüyle birlikte belgesel sinemada göçün nasıl aktarıldığını inceleyen bir çalışmaya rastlanmamıştır. Bu durum çalışmanın önemini göstermektedir. Anlatılan müzik kültürü de aslında belgesel sinemanın yaptığı gibi gerçeklikleri sanatsal bir üslupla yansıtmaktadır. Göçmenlerin sorunlarını anlatan müzikler, belgeselin de göçmenleri bu müziklerle anlatmasıyla birleştiğinde katmanlı ve etkin bir anlatı ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışma Aşk, Mark ve Ölüm belgeselinin göçmenleri ve müzik kültürünü belgesel sinemanın unsurlarıyla nasıl aktardığını incelemektedir. Belgeselin muhtevasında yer alan müziklerin, röportajların ve arşivlerin nasıl kullanıldığı, birbirleriyle nasıl bir etkileşimle bağlandığı veya montajlandığı, kullanılan müziklerin toplumsal gerçeklikleri nasıl yansıttığı içerik analiziyle çözümlenmiştir. Aşk, Mark ve Ölüm belgeselinin, göçün toplumsal etkilerini müzik kültürüyle harmanlayarak anlattığı ve belgesel filmlerin öne çıkan unsurları olan röportajları ve arşivleri incelikli bir montaj üslubuyla kullanabildiği gözlenmiştir.
Aizanoi’dan Dört Mezar ve Düşündürdükleri

Phrygia Epiktetos bölgesinin önemli merkezlerinden biri olan Aizanoi’un kent merkezinin yaklaşık 700m. güneydoğusunda 3. Derece Arkeolojik Sit alanında 2022-2023 yıllarında yapılan sondaj çalışmalarında açığa çıkarılan dört adet pişmiş toprak kiremit (stroter) mezar bu çalışmanın konusunu oluşturmaktadır. Bu makalede Aizanoi nekropolislerinde bugüne kadar yapılan arkeolojik çalışmalar hakkında genel bir bilgi verildikten sonra, yeni tespit edilen dört mezar tarihlenebilir buluntularıyla birlikte değerlendirilerek bilim dünyasına tanıtılmaktadır.
Mezarların hepsi kremasyon gömü içermektedir ve içlerinden ele geçen çok sayıdaki demir raptiye ile çeşitli demir aksam ve çivi parçaları, dönemin gömü pratikleri hakkında birtakım öneriler getirmemize yardımcı olmaktadır. Mezar buluntuları içerisinde yer alan pişmiş toprak bulbous tipi unguentarium parçaları, bir pişmiş toprak bardak, iki Ephesos Tipi kandil ve bir bronz sikke ise mezarların tarihlenmesine olanak sağlamaktadır. Augustus dönemine işaret eden bu buluntular, mezarların da aynı döneme ait olduğunu göstermektedir.
Burada değerlendirilen mezarlar, kentin güneydoğusunda bir gömü alanının daha bulunduğunu ve Augustus Döneminde kentin güneydoğu yönündeki sınırının en fazla ne kadar genişlemiş olabileceğini göstermesi açısından önemlidir.
Amasya, Oluz Höyük Zerdüşt Tapınağı Bölgesinde Arkeolojik Mirasın Korunması Amaçlı Arkeojeofizik Çalışmalar

Amasya-Oluz Höyük 1999 yılında yapılan yüzey araştırmasında keşfedilmiş, arkeolojik kazılara ise 2007 yılında başlanmıştır. Höyük’te önemli medeniyetlere ait kültür katmanları ve kentler açığa çıkartılmaktadır. Amasya, Oluz Höyük’te Anadolu'nun dinler tarihini değiştirecek önemli bulgular, yapılan arkeolojik kazılarla ortaya çıkartılmıştır. M.Ö. 5. yüzyıla ait yerleşimde, Pers Yerleşimi’ne ait bir Ateş Kültü ile ilgili (erken Zerdüşt diniyle ilgili) önemli yapı toplulukları ortaya çıkartılmıştır. Höyük'te Pers Yerleşimi’ne ait sivil ve inanç yapıları ortaya çıkartıldıkça 2500 yıllık buluntular, döneminin inanç tarihine yeni boyutlar kazandıracaktır. Oluz Höyük’te, şimdiye kadar, ortaya çıkartılan arkeolojik eserlerin zenginliği; höyüğün, Anadolu’nun önemli arkeolojik miras alanı olduğunun bir kanıtıdır. ICOMOS tarafından hazırlanan ve 1990 yılında Lozan'da kabul edilen "Arkeolojik Mirasın Korunması ve Yönetimi Tüzüğü’nde" "Arkeolojik mirasın korunması, onun içeriği ve niteliği hakkında mümkün olabilecek en ayrıntılı bilgiye dayandırılmalıdır" (Madde 4) denilmektedir. Bu kapsamda höyüğün tepesinde yer alan A Açmasının güney kesiminde, inanç yapı kalıntılarının batı kenarında, sivil veya tapınağa ait yapı olduğu düşünülen alanda jeoradar (GPR) çalışmalar yapılarak iki ve üç boyutlu yeraltı görüntüleri elde edilmiştir. Jeoradar çalışmalarıyla doğrusal gidişli, dairesel görünümlü, dik köşeli ve geometrik form veren yüksek genlikli anomaliler belirlenmiştir. Bu alanda arkeolojik kazılar yapılmış, bu kazılarda yangın geçirmiş bir tahıl depo alanına ait yapı temelleri ortaya çıkarılmıştır
Effect of agriculture on economic growth in Algeria during the period 1991–2022
Authors: Mostefai Yassine
Published: October 2024

Purpose. This paper aimed to study the impact of both agricultural value-added and agricultural labour on the economic growth of Algeria (represented by the real Gross Domestic Product – GDP) during the period 1991–2022, using the co-integration method according to the bounds approach known as the Autoregressive Distributed Lag modeling (ARDL).
Results. The study revealed a relationship between real agricultural value-added and real GDP in both the short and long terms. However, the impact ratio in the long term is somewhat weak, reflecting the weakness of agricultural production in contributing to total output formation and economic growth. Additionally, agricultural employment only affects real GDP in the long term. The error correction coefficient is negative and significant, with the speed of adjustment towards equilibrium in the long-term reaching approximately 52.19 % (about one year and 10 months).
Scientific novelty. This study highlights the great importance of the agricultural sector as one of the solutions to economic diversification in order to achieve economic development in Algeria – a country that has suffered and continues to suffer from economic dependence on the hydrocarbon industry. However, this study stands out from previous research by addressing various programs and reforms implemented in the agricultural sector during the study period. Moreover, it measures the impact of the agricultural sector on economic growth by creating a logarithmic model with two main variables: agricultural value-added and agricultural employment, both of which effectively contribute to increasing agricultural production and thus economic growth.
Practical value. This study emphasises the need for the government to prioritise and improve agriculture to move towards smart agriculture and reclaim wastelands. At the same time, the government must allocate new programmes to develop the agricultural sector and activate workers to increase agricultural productivity in order to achieve food security and transform the country towards a more prosperous and sustainable future.
