Objetivo: Analisar fatores associados ao não uso dos serviços odontológicos durante o isolamento social na pandemia da Covid-19 entre professores da educação básica pública do estado de Minas Gerais (MG).
Métodos: Estudo transversal analítico do tipo websurvey realizado entre professores da educação básica das escolas estaduais de MG. O estudo contou com o apoio da Secretaria de Estado de Educação (SEE-MG) que enviou o formulário aos e-mails institucionais dos professores. A variável dependente adotada foi o não uso dos serviços odontológicos durante o período de isolamento social (2020 e 2021) na pandemia da Covid-19. As variáveis independentes foram organizadas segundo modelo teórico de ANDERSEN & DAVIDSON. Foi conduzida Regressão Logística Binária.
Resultados: Dos 1.907 professores participantes, 15,3% não utilizaram o serviço odontológico durante o período de isolamento social. A chance de não uso dos serviços odontológicos foi maior entre indivíduos do sexo masculino, com pior padrão alimentar, com autopercepção regular e negativa da saúde bucal, que relataram necessitar de tratamento odontológico e menor chance de não uso entre aqueles que relataram dor.
Conclusão: A maioria dos professores investigados fez uso dos serviços odontológicos durante o período. O não uso foi maior entre homens e esteve associado a hábitos, condições clínicas e subjetivas mais negativas.

Aim: To identify and analyze the 100 most-cited clinical trials (CTs) and systematic reviews (SRs) related to children and adolescents’ oral health.
Methods: A search was conducted in the Web of Science Core Collection (WoS-CC), using a specific search strategy. Papers were ranked in descending order, considering number of citations. Only CTs and SRs were considered. Two reviewers selected the papers and collected the bibliometric data: year of publication; number and density of citations; study designs; journals; authors; countries and institutions; topics of study; and keywords. Poisson regression was performed to verify associations between the number of citations and bibliometric parameters.
Results: The 100 most-cited papers were published between 1982 and 2018 and received a total of 8,702 citations in the WoS-CC (ranging from 52 to 177). Fifty-three papers were CTs and 47 SRs. The American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics published the most papers (n=20). Twetman S contributed the highest number of papers (n=7). The United States of America was the most prolific country (n = 17), followed by the Netherlands (n=11). The University of Nijmegen (Netherlands) presented 8 papers among the most-cited. The main topic of interest was Cariology (n = 40). “Dental Caries” was the most frequent keyword (n = 20). The citations’ number from WoS-CC decreased by 1.3% each year (RP: 0.987, 95%CI: 0.975–1.000, p = 0.048).
Conclusion: This bibliometric study allowed an analysis of the most-cited CTs and SRs related to children and adolescents’ oral health, highlighting the most prolific authors, institutions and countries based on the number of citations.

Published: March 2024

A terra é um bem valorizado por isso sujeito a disputas. Nesses conflitos, o Estado que deveria ser mediador, se coloca como representante dos interesses econômicos. As Zonas Especiais de Interesse Social são áreas que compreendem assentamentos precários destinados à regularização fundiária. A comunidade do Lagamar é uma ZEIS da cidade de Fortaleza-CE localizada entre os bairros São João do Tauape e Alto da Balança que lutou para que essa área fosse reconhecida como ZEIS, e tentou resistir a remoção causada pelas obras para a Copa do Mundo de 2014, realizada no Brasil. Os impactos ainda são atuais e reverberam no cotidiano de centenas de famílias, que tiveram seu direito à moradia violado. O objetivo é analisar os impactos ainda atuais atinentes à relação conflituosa entre o Estado e a comunidade diretamente atingida pelo megaevento da FIFA em Fortaleza, assim como destacar os meios de resistências e a organização ensejada pela comunidade nesse processo, e a luta pelo direito à cidade. Para tanto, a metodologia utilizada nesta pesquisa consistiu em pesquisa bibliográfica, trabalhos de campo e entrevistas com as pessoas afetadas pelas obras do VLT, além do envolvimento prático cotidiano na frente de luta pela moradia, utilizando-se dos espaços de luta pela moradia e organização popular para escuta ativa dos depoimentos, em reuniões e encontros das movimentações comunitárias que seguiam em meio à luta pela permanência na ZEIS. Os resultados obtidos dão conta de que as ZEIS são um instrumento de grande importância, pois são zoneamentos legalmente reconhecidos para a regularização fundiária de assentamentos irregulares, “obras de urbanização” e outras melhorias destinadas à população de baixa renda. A implementação destas zonas, no entanto, não ocorre sem desafios. O exemplo dessa afirmação é justamente o caso desta pesquisa, efetivar as ZEIS em Fortaleza e a ZEIS do Lagamar demandou esforços coletivos e ainda assim, existem obstáculos que impedem a concretização destas.

A farinha de bagaço de uva, importante ingrediente funcional, raramente é encontrada no mercado e não há dados conhecidos na literatura que avaliem os motivos disso. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a percepção de empresários e técnicos quanto ao à transformação do bagaço em produtos para consumo humano e avaliar a atual destinação dada a esse resíduo. A pesquisa foi qualitativa e realizada de 2019 a 2020 por meio de entrevistas, em profundidade, com nove informantes-chave de empresas localizadas na região do Vale dos Vinhedos, no Sul do Brasil. Os resultados mostraram que poucas empresas produzem farinhas/pós e óleo de semente de uva a partir do bagaço de uva, e que a maioria destina o resíduo para compostagem e alimentação animal. Além disso, os resultados mostram que a farinha de bagaço de uva é percebida como uma matéria-prima de grande potencial para o desenvolvimento de novos produtos para consumo humano, mas que os principais obstáculos para esse uso são a falta de conhecimento de tecnologias específicas para esse tipo de produção, os grandes investimentos requeridos nessa nova cadeia produtiva, a redução de mão de obra nas empresas de agricultura familiar e as incertezas do mercado. Adicionalmente, a preocupação das empresas com o cumprimento da legislação ambiental foi um forte motivador para a destinação do bagaço de uva gerado. O presente trabalho traz informações importantes para a cadeia produtiva da uva e a comunidade científica avaliarem a destinação dos resíduos gerados para a adoção de uma abordagem ecoinovadora do bagaço de uva.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o conhecimento e os hábitos de consumo das pessoas referentes ao leite caprino e aos seus derivados, bem como a disponibilidade desses produtos em três municípios (Londrina, Maringá e Arapongas) da região norte do estado do Paraná, Brasil, selecionados por conveniência e por estarem localizados próximos ao estado de São Paulo, um grande mercado que inclui o consumo de laticínios. Para isto, foi aplicado um formulário semiaberto, com 31 questões, hospedado no Google Forms. Entre os 247 entrevistados, 47% afirmaram não saber a diferença entre os leites de cabra e de vaca. Imagens de leite UHT e de queijos caprinos foram associadas (69%) a palavras positivas ou interesse. A prevalência do consumo de produtos láteos caprinos foi associada à faixa etária (maior consumo de leite a partir de 31 anos e de derivados de 41 a 60 anos) e ao rendimento familiar (46% até três salários mínimos e 27% de quatro a seis). O consumo de queijos também foi associado ao número de habitantes do município e ao seu nível de escolaridade. A maioria das pessoas que consomem ou já consumiram leite (cru, pasteurizado, longa vida ou em pó) e/ou derivados caprinos foram motivados pelo sabor ou por indicações de amigos ou médicos, nesta ordem. As principais razões apontadas para o não consumo foram a falta de conhecimento deste tipo de lácteo e a falta de hábito. Leites caprino UHT e em pó estavam disponíveis em todos os municípios avaliados, mas os queijos foram encontrados somente nos dois mais populosos. A região estudada é um mercado potencial para a venda de produtos lácteos de cabra. Portanto, deve-se considerar a divulgação dos benefícios destes produtos para a saúde, por meio de estratégias de marketing online e offline, além da sua maior disponibilização nos mercados.

Published: March 2024

Os drivers da demanda e da oferta conectados aos “Caminhos Socioeconômicos Compartilhados” (SSP, no inglês) irão impactar a agricultura do futuro. A avaliação dos impactos desses drivers requer abordagens que vão além dos métodos e instrumentos tradicionais das ciências biofísicas. O presente trabalho utiliza um modelo de equilíbrio parcial estático para a agricultura global que incorpora na análise os efeitos das respostas econômicas à escassez que afetam a produção agrícola regional e global e o uso da terra. Até 2050, a produção agrícola se expandirá a taxas diferentes dependendo da região e cenário. Os ganhos de produtividade consolidar-se-ão como um dos principais drivers. O cenário SSP1 (“Sustentabilidade”), de rápido desenvolvimento tecnológico, oferece perspectiva promissora para aumentar a produção agrícola global e reduzir a pressão para expansão de área. No cenário SSP1, a insegurança alimentar cairá de maneira mais acentuada, para 2,8% da população mundial em 2050. Alcançar esse cenário Sustentabilidade exigirá um esforço global articulado para fortalecer as despesas em P&D agropecuário, acompanhado de uma estratégia bem desenhada para traduzir ciência em conhecimentos e em tecnologias capazes de resolver problemas que possam ser transferidos e adotados exitosamente pelos proprietários rurais de maneira a alavancar os ganhos de produtividade ao longo das próximas três décadas.

Published: March 2024

Background: For the majority of renal injuries, non-operative management is the standard of care with nephrectomy reserved for those with severe trauma. The aim of our study is to assess the characteristics of perinephric hematoma and other prognostic factors of surgical intervention for high grade renal trauma independent of AAST OIS. Materials and Methods: A total of 119 patients with high grade renal trauma from January 2005 to September 2021 were identified for analysis. Hospital records and diagnostic imaging were reviewed to identify the need for surgical intervention, including total and partial nephrectomy. Factors examined include patient age, gender, ISS (Injury severity score), AAST-OIS, laceration location, length and number, perinephric hematoma characteristics, intravascular contrast extravasation and devitalised segment status. Descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression were performed as appropriate. Results: Mean patient age was 31, 39 and mean ISS was 22, 80. A total of 24 surgical intervention were required (20%) including partial and total nephrectomy. On univariate analysis, hypotension on admission, hematoma diameter, degree of devitalised fragment superior of 25% and AAST OIS grade were associated with the need of surgical intervention. On multivariate analysis, only hypotension on admission (p: 0,029), hematoma diameter greater than 3,5 cm (p:0,021) and AAST-OIS grade (p: 0,010) remained independently associated with surgical intervention. Conclusions: Perinephric hematoma size remains among prognostic factors for surgical intervention that allow better stratification of renal lesions and its study allows a better management of high-grade renal trauma.

Published: March 2024

Moya-Moya disease is a rare chronic cerebral vascular disease (arteriopathy), which can affect both children and adults and gives rise to severe clinical manifestations of ischemic or hemorrhagic origin. This angiogenic disease is an intrinsic primary pathological process, characterized by a narrowing of the distal internal carotid artery that extends to the proximal segments of the middle and anterior cerebral arteries, inducing the formation of replacement vessels that give a characteristic appearance on angiography forming a smoke cloud: Moya Moya network. The involvement of the posterior circulation is very rare. Its etiology is still poorly understood and represents 10 to 15% of the causes of strokes, with 2 age peaks where it is more frequent: children around 5 years and adults around 40 years. Its evolution can be slow with intermittent symptoms or fulminant with a rapid neurological decline. Imaging is the reference examination in the diagnosis of Moya-Moya. MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) has an important and growing role in the management of the disease. We report a case of a 48 year old patient with diabetes and hypertension, hospitalized for a deep left hematoma.

Published: March 2024

Osteoblastoma (OB) is a rare benign osteogenic tumor, primarily found in the axial skeleton and long tubular bones. It accounts for <1% of all primary bone tumors, mainly affecting young adults. Maxillofacial involvement is rare, often manifesting in the mandible. Osteoblastoma's pathogenesis is unclear, with slow growth and varied clinical presentations. Radiologically, it appears as a well-defined, osteolytic lesion with sclerotic rims. The definitive diagnosis relies on histopathology, with immunohistochemistry aiding in challenging cases. Differential diagnoses include fibrous dysplasia, osteoid osteoma, osteomas, cemento-ossifying fibroma, and low-grade osteosarcoma. Surgical excision with safety margins is the standard treatment, while radiotherapy may be considered for certain cases. Prognosis is generally good, but long-term follow-up is essential due to recurrence risks, particularly in aggressive forms. Malignant transformation can occur, emphasizing the importance of careful diagnosis and management.

The figure of the zombie is analyzed, its reference to the issue of trauma, as well as the romantic paradigm. In the article, the issue of zombies is primarily related to the necrophilic nature of Polish culture and how the culture of persevering in death was created and initiated by Romanticism. The object of interest is also the contemporary image of Poland and the social diagnosis made by Dehnel.
Z historii gatunku antyutopii literackiej. O (nie)oczywistych powinowactwach „My” Jewgienija Zamiatina i „Metropolis” Thei von Harbou
Authors: Witczak Patryk
Published: March 2024

The main aim of the article was to demonstrate the similarities between Yevgeny Zamyatin’s novel We and Thea von Harbou’s Metropolis. The analysis reveals that these similarities are primarily evident in the depiction of space, plot, and character development. Regarding plot structure, female characters assume leading roles in both narratives. The antinomic pairs of women created by Zamyatin and Harbou surprisingly bring the two analyzed novels closer together. O-90 and Maria represent the archetype of the ideal mother ready for great sacrifices, embodying the power of creation. Conversely, I-330 and the false Maria are femme fatales, embodying the power of destruction. They become catalysts for social tensions. In their portrayal of these heroines, Zamyatin and Harbou draw upon Christian and mythological symbolism, creating distinctive images of the Virgin Mary and Lilith. Crucially, within these strongly masculinized worlds, women are the ones who actively initiate changes in their respective realities.
Weighty Matters: Exploring the Economic Ramifications of Obesity, Abdominal Bloating, and Spinal Deformities in Pakistan
Authors: Muhammad Ali  , Zubair Ahmad
Published: March 2024

This study conducted in Pakistan from December 2020 to December 2022 addresses the rising health issues associated with abdominal bloating (AB), spinal deformities (ST), and obesity. With risk factors including improper diet, sedentary lifestyles, and abnormal posture, the research aims to provide valuable insights into the complications and diseases linked to these health concerns. The observational study involved 50 males categorized into three age groups (50-60, 61-70, 71-75), with 48 classified as obese and 2 non-obese participants. Utilizing data tabulation and GraphPad Prism 9.5.2, the study employed econometric research methods and descriptive statistics, including ANOVA variance, for parametric analysis. Results indicated a positive association between AB and health diseases, with a slight association observed with ST. Participants exhibited varying levels of ST and AB, revealing potential links between these factors. The study concludes that factors like improper diet and sedentary lifestyles increase the risk of obesity, which, in turn, may progress to AB and lead to ST, potentially causing a range of chronic health issues.
To hope all things: A relational response to racism in music education
Authors: Quindag Susan
Published: March 2024

Throughout the United States, critical race theory (CRT) has been integrated and implemented in various school districts and higher education institutions to address and combat racism. As a variant theory of Marxism and critical theory, CRT, however, has many problems. One such problem is that it claims that racism is systemic in society and that society must be fundamentally changed or overthrown through activism. However, a systemic change alone will not combat racism because it is fundamentally a relational/spiritual problem and, therefore, should be addressed by a relational response. This paper explores the research question: What is a relational response to racism? To do so, I describe critical theory’s historical and theoretical roots and why it is inadequate to address racism. Then, I define the relational mindset as “the beliefs that orient us to understand the world through profound connectedness for growth beyond knowledge and action beyond technique” and expound on the words “connectedness,” “growth,” and “action.” To demonstrate a practical application of the relational mindset in music education, I present three indicators to align the objectives of a lesson plan – communication, empathy, and regard. I then discuss the application of the relational mindset to a music lesson on a spiritual sung by the Gullahs, “The Welcome Table.” I conclude the paper with questions to evaluate the veracity of other theories with the relational mindset and a final encouragement for educators when thinking about racism.
Status of Learning Resources in Day Secondary Schools Located in Chepalungu Sub County in the Wake of Corona Virus Pandemic
Authors: Bett Joel , Ahonobadha Marilyn Apella
Published: March 2024

Education is a fundamental human right that ideally should be available to all. Currently, Kenya supports international advocacy for universal education for all school-going children. In this Republic, 8592 public secondary schools are ascribing to subsidized free day secondary education (FDSE) programs. This program was put in place to improve access to secondary school education. The Government supports the post-primary education program by providing funds for infrastructure, tuition materials, and employment of support staff. During the implementation of the education program, the Corona pandemic struck, thereby disrupting the education process. After a short break, normal school operations resumed. Therefore, this study intended to evaluate the coping strategies used by schools in Chepalungu to deal with the mandatory spacing rules put in place by the Ministry of Health to help control the spread of the virus. The study targeted 54-day schools from which a sample of 48 was selected. A cross-sectional survey design was employed whereby questionnaires were administered to principals in the study area. Key Informant interview was also conducted with two Education officers. The study established that the FDSE funds availed to the schools were inadequate to help erect additional learning spaces, which would help enforce the social distancing rule. Classes were congested and were operating above the required capacity. This study recommends that the FDSE funds should be increased so that learning can go on in an environment that responds to the guidelines put forth by the Ministry of Health as far as containing the spread of coronavirus is concerned. Out of the study, it was found that learning resources in day schools were inadequate, and students were learning in congested environments
Mechanics of Indentation for an Elastic Half-Space by Punches
Authors: Saha Sandip , Kumar Vikash , Bhushan Awani , Das Apurba Narayan
Published: March 2024

The dynamic and static problems of finding stress components under four moving punches (a≤|X|≤b,c≤|X|≤d), located close to each other over an elastic half-plane (Y=0), are solved. Employing the Fourier integral transform, the problem is reduced to a set of integral equations in both cases. Using the Hilbert transform technique, the integral equations are solved to obtain the stress and displacement components. Finally, exact expressions for the stress components under the punches and the normal displacement component in the region outside the punches have been derived. Numerical results showing the variations in stress intensity factors (SIF) at the punch ends, and the absolute value of torque applied over the contact regions with different values of the parameters used in the problems have been presented in the form of graphs.
Plane Strain Expansion of a Cylindrical Cavity in an Infinite Porous Rigid/Plastic Medium Obeying a General Yield Criterion
Authors: Rynkovskaya Marina , Alexandrov Sergei , Elberdov Timur
Published: March 2024

A semi-analytical plane-strain solution for an expanding cylindrical cavity surrounded by an infinite porous rigid/plastic medium is presented. The constitutive equations are a general yield criterion and its associated flow rule. The yield criterion depends on the relative density and the linear and quadratic stress invariants. No restriction is imposed on this dependence, except for the standard requirements imposed on the yield criteria. The boundary value problem reduces to a Cauchy problem for three ordinary differential equations. This system of equations must be solved numerically. Numerical results are presented for Green’s yield criterion. This yield criterion involves two functions of the relative density. The influence of the choice of these functions on the distributions of the relative density, the radial velocity, and the stress components is revealed.
Design and Analysis of a Low Voltage Simulink Model (LVSM) of IEEE 57 Bus
Authors: Chary G. Veera Bhadra , Katuri Raghavaiah , Rosalina K. Mercy
Published: March 2024

The present power system is gaining momentum towards designing equivalent circuit models. The Ward and REI methods involve the admittance reduction method as well as being merged with the EMS model to derive boundary parameters, but these methods are limited and valid for a predefined condition. Therefore, it is required to design an equivalent circuit that adopts the real power system for analysis. In this paper, a new method is proposed to design a scaled-down power system model without changing the impedance of components. In this regard, a Low Voltage Simulink Model (LVSM) of the IEEE 57 bus network was designed in MATLAB/ Simulink so that it could be useful for laboratory model design purposes. The main objectives of this paper are to propose a mathematical procedure to scale down the network parameters and design a 3-phase LVSM of an IEEE 57 bus power system network within the Simulink platform. The performance of LVSM was analyzed with no-load, balanced load, and unbalanced load models. These simulation studies were validated and compared with the theoretical results to prove that the proposed LVSM modeling has good mathematical accuracy, robustness, and validity for practical model implementation.
Effect of DC Link Capacitor on the Performance of Wind-Driven Double-Fed Induction Generator

Published: March 2024

In this paper, the starting performance of a double-fed induction generator (DFIG) operating at super-synchronous speed is investigated when varying the values of the DC link capacitor. The starting transients, the settling time, and the harmonics of the stator and rotor currents and voltages are investigated as a function of the DC link capacitor Cd. Curve fitting is applied to derive mathematical equations (polynomial) relating the variation of the stator current THD with the value of the DC capacitor. Similarly, polynomials are deduced to relate the THD of the rotor current and rotor voltage with the value of the DC link capacitor. These polynomials help to design the DC link parameters that lead to minimum current and voltage harmonics of the grid-connected DFIG. The minimum THD values of the stator current, rotor current, and rotor voltage are presented. These results are repeated at different rotor speeds to deduce the optimum Cd value within a wide speed range. Also, the effect of Cd on the DC link current and voltage ripples is demonstrated at different speeds.
Grid-connected Systems Powered by Solar Energy Implemented with Fuzzy based Voltage Source Converters
Authors: Kumar Raja Sathish , Rao Y. V. Balarama Krishna , N. Venkata Koteswara Rao
Published: March 2024

Solar energy systems connected to the electrical grid are known as grid-tied solar power systems or solar power-connected grid systems. Grid-tied solar inverters are only capable of producing active electricity since they are made to produce power at a unity power factor. The grid alone can meet the load’s requirement for reactive power. Reactive power drawn from the grid relative to active power has increased significantly with the sharp rise in the deployment of distributed energy resources based on renewable energy. This has an impact on the grid’s power quality. The amount of reactive power that the grid must supply will decrease if the grid-tied solar inverter is designed to be intelligent enough to provide reactive power in addition to active power. This work’s primary goal is to generate the necessary pulses for a three-phase inverter, which will aid in producing reactive power and ultimately help achieve the work’s primary objective. Fuzzy logic is a complex approach that takes advantage of the flexibility and adaptability of fuzzy systems to manage Voltage Source Converters (VSCs) for three-phase inverter operation. The primary circuit is simulated in the MATLAB/Simulink environment, giving the desired results.

Windkraftanlagen auf dem Festland (onshore) und ihre Errichtung im Meer (offshore) – sowie deren Wirkung auf unser Gehör, bzw. auf höher entwickelte Meeresbewohner
Authors: Veit Ivar
Published: March 2024

Quellen für klimafreundliche und erneuerbare Energie sind heute, allein schon infolge der weltpolitischen Ereignisse, so bedeutungsvoll, wie nie zuvor. Begriffe wie Energiewende, Wind- und Solarenergie, Windkraftanlagen oder Fotovoltaik sind vielerorts im Gespräch. Der nachfolgende Beitrag befasst sich konkret mit Anlagen, die von der Kraft des Windes angetrieben werden, d. h. mit Windkraftanlagen. Anlagen dieser Art gibt es sowohl auf dem Festland als auch im Meer, letzteres insbesondere dort, wo es besonders viel Wind gibt. Vor unseren Küsten ist das die Nordsee. Die nachfolgenden Ausführungen befassen sich mit den Folgen, die a) die auf dem Festland (onshore) installierten Windkraftanlagen in unserem Gehör hinterlassen, und b) die beim Rammen von offshore-Pfählen in den Meeresboden bei den dortigen höher entwickelten Lebewesen zurückbleiben. Mit anderen Worten, es geht zum einen um etwaige Schäden, die der von den Rotorblättern ausgehende Infraschall [1; 2] in unserem Gehör – möglicherweise hinterlässt, und zum anderen um die Wirkung auf höher entwickelte Meeresbewohner als Folge der Montage von offshore-Pfählen.

Radiocarbon Dating of Cremated bone samples from the Site of the Hungarian Church at Pauca, Sibiu County
Authors: Tiplic Ioan Marian , Simion Corina Anca , Gaza Oana , Sava Tiberiu Bogdan , Manailescu Cristian , Ilie Maria Valentina
Published: March 2024

Archaeological research in the site of Pauca - Hungarian Church started in 2010, and between 2012-2023 has uncovered over 116 graves, some being simple cremation graves with a deposit of remains in the urn, others being double graves (with two urns) and one being a mixed double grave (incineration and inhumation). The dating of the five samples from the cemetery would suggest that the beginnings of the Păuca cemetery is contemporary with the late Germanic period (Gepids) and the early Avar period. Admitting that it is more accurate to date closer to the upper limit of the range (7th century), the cemetery at Pauca could be connected with historical events that occurred between 567 and 630, i.e. the establishment and consolidation of Avar power in the Pannonian-Transylvanian space. The C14  dating of the cremated bones from the Păuca cemetery (Sibiu county) reopens the discussion on the need for more samples of C14 data from the cremation cemeteries attributed cemetery to the so-called Mediaș group and simultaneously may represent a turning point in the evaluation of the chronology of the period between 6th and 8th centuries A.D.

GREEN SPACE EXPOSURE’S INFLUENCE ON MENTAL WELL-BEING DURING COVID-19 CAMPUS LOCKDOWNS: A SATISFACTION MEDIATING PATHWAY
Authors: Zhou Shaoyou , Wang Shiqi , Liu Haonan
Published: March 2024

Recent research indicates that exposure to green space may have positive effects on the mental health of students, potentially mediated by factors such as environmental satisfaction and social cohesion. However, the specific impact of green space exposure on students’ mental health during the COVID-19 campus lockdowns unexplored. To investigate this relationship, a survey was conducted via social media among 346 current students residing on a locked-down campus, assessing their mental well-being, green space satisfaction, social environment satisfaction, subjective exposure and objective exposure to green space. A structural equation model (SEM) was employed to examine the relationships among various dimensions of green space exposure, satisfaction and students’ mental well-being. The findings indicate that subjective exposure to green space has a positive impact on mental well-being and indirectly through social environment satisfaction. Additionally, objective exposure could indirectly influence mental well-being through green space satisfaction and social environment satisfaction.
