Zebrafish as an evolving model in Homoeopathy: A Scoping Review
Authors: Ghate Varsha , Khachane Monica , Mukherjee Anupam , S Arulmozhi
Published: May 2023

Background: The scientific community has used the Zebrafish (Danio rerio) model significantly more often which adheres to the 3Rs (replacement, reduction, and refinement) philosophy as demanded by numerous national and international regulatory agencies. Thus, by substituting Zebrafish for mammals in research, it is possible to decrease the use of those animals and address issues with their welfare.

Methodology: Data was collected from various databases such as Scopus, Science Direct, Web of Science, PubMed, Research gate, and Google Scholar, to identify preclinical studies examining the effects of Homoeopathic formulations on the variance of diseases in Zebrafish. The 13 qualified manuscripts were included in the full-text analysis after the identified publications were reviewed in accordance with inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Results: A systematic search of the databases retrieved 10 studies screened for eligibility after duplicates were removed. A total of 10 full-text articles were assessed with a total of 09 meeting the inclusion criteria and included in the scoping review.

Conclusion: Zebrafish revealed to be an ideal model to explore studies on toxicity, genetics, behavior and bone diseases. Additionally, researchers can use Zebrafish to discover novel therapies and preventive measures for a range of human ailments.

Published: May 2023

Pentingnya digitalisasi akuntansi telah meningkat dalam beberapa tahun terakhir karena UMKM berusaha untuk meningkatkan proses keuangan mereka dan mengurangi biaya. Namun, penelitian terbatas telah dilakukan tentang dampak digitalisasi akuntansi dalam konteks UMKM, khususnya di kota Bandung. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyelidiki dampak digitalisasi akuntansi terhadap efisiensi dan pengurangan biaya pada perusahaan wirausaha UMKM di Kota Bandung. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain penelitian dengan mixed methods, dengan data kuantitatif yang dikumpulkan dari 150 UMKM dan data kualitatif yang dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam dengan 20 pemilik atau manajer UMKM. Analisis kuantitatif menunjukkan hubungan positif yang signifikan antara digitalisasi akuntansi dan efisiensi dan pengurangan biaya di UMKM. Efek moderasi dari ukuran perusahaan dan kesiapan teknologi juga diidentifikasi, menunjukkan bahwa UMKM yang lebih kecil dan mereka yang memiliki kesiapan teknologi yang lebih tinggi dapat memperoleh lebih banyak manfaat dari digitalisasi akuntansi. Temuan kualitatif lebih lanjut mendukung dampak positif dari digitalisasi akuntansi, karena UMKM melaporkan peningkatan akurasi dan keandalan data keuangan, pemrosesan transaksi keuangan yang lebih cepat, dan berkurangnya dokumentasi dan pencatatan manual. Namun, tantangan terkait sumber daya keuangan yang terbatas, kurangnya keterampilan teknis, dan resistensi terhadap perubahan diidentifikasi sebagai hambatan untuk menerapkan digitalisasi akuntansi di UMKM.
Revisitando a relação entre família e escola: discursos inacabados
Authors: Pereira Anderson de Carvalho
Published: May 2023

Esta pesquisa faz parte de uma pesquisa mais ampla sobre a contratação de Psicólogos na rede pública de ensino do sudoeste da Bahia, após promulgação de legislação específica. Ao responderem sobre esta contratação, as professoras entrevistadas deram destaque à relação entre família e escola. Por conta disso, o objetivo deste artigo foi analisar especificamente como se construiu o processo de distribuição de sentidos sobre “família”. Para isto, utilizou-se o referencial teórico e metodológico da Análise de Discurso francesa. Pela análise das entrevistas foram identificadas duas zonas de sentido (recortes) intituladas “família e déficit de atenção” e “família e discurso médico”. No cotidiano escolar, estes recortes indicam como resultados um assujeitamento dos sujeitos-professores a essas zonas de sentido. Todavia, há possiblidades de rupturas nestes discursos, porque são discursos inacabados.
Ética na pesquisa e na produção científica: um diálogo entre a coletânea da ANPEd e autores clássicos
Authors: Oliveira Terezinha
Published: May 2023

Neste artigo, reflete-se sobre o conceito de ética na produção e na publicação científica a partir de quatro textos publicados na coletânea de textos intitulada Ética e pesquisa em educação: subsídios (volume 1-2019, volume 2-2021) da Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa (ANPEd). Os intelectuais da Educação levaram a travar um diálogo sobre o tema por eles apresentado e a concepção de dois autores na História e na Filosofia, Aristóteles e Tomás de Aquino. Em consonância com essas fontes, buscou-se compreender em que medida o debate sobre a ética considera as ações do intelectual como ser humano e não somente como indivíduo da ciência. O diálogo entre formulações de autores de tempos e espaços distintos acerca do tema é possível porque o caminho teórico-metodológico é a história social, no qual a história é um fundo permanente, conforme ensina Bloch (2002) e como um processo de longa duração, segundo Braudel (2019). Observa-se, ainda, que o estudo é de natureza bibliográfica.

Authors: Noor Amat-ul Mateen , Ayaz Mohammad
Published: May 2023

The achievement of sustainable development goals is a challenge for United Nations Development Programme member countries. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to explore and compare the role that the financial performance of global Islamic and conventional microfinance institutions playing achieving sustainable development goals by using non-traditional indexes. Further, the study also checked the moderating role of institution size in this relationship. Results indicate that the financial performance of both Islamic and conventional microfinance institutions is important to achieving sustainable development goals. Institution size as a moderator has a negative impact on the financial performance of conventional microfinance institutions in achieving sustainable development due to the possibility of commercialization. In terms of policy recommendations, the results of this study present several policy directions for both Islamic and conventional institution managers for both developed and developing countries. Both Islamic and conventional MFIs managers should focus on financial performance to achieve sustainable development goals. The managers should realize that in the case of increasing the institution's size, financial performance can be improved, but it also creates commercialization, making the main objective of serving the poorest customers difficult. This study also gives directions to the government, central bodies, and other regulatory authorities to develop policies for improving the financial performance of both Islamic and conventional microfinance institutions to achieve sustainable development goals. This study has taken two indicators of financial performance that are extensively discussed in the literature. For future studies, other financial performance indicators can be included in the study.

Authors: Yaqub Rana Muhammad Shahid , Akram Hafiz Muhammad Zeeshan , Ahmed Najeeb , Ali Muhammad Qasim
Published: May 2023

Research on customer switch back intention in the telecommunication sector provides insights into customer behaviour, identifies key drivers, assesses satisfaction levels, evaluates competitors, enhances customer retention strategies, and enables predictive analytics. Such research is crucial for telecommunication companies to understand their customers better, improve their offerings, and effectively retain customers in a highly competitive market. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the impact of post-purchase regret, relational bonds, and prior experience on switch back intentions among prepaid mobile subscribers. Additionally, it examines the moderating role of the worth of win-back offer on this relationship. The study employs Attribution Theory as a theoretical framework to develop and test the research model. Data were collected from 345 prepaid mobile subscribers, and the structural equation modelling technique was used for data analysis. Results indicate that post-purchase regret, relational social capital, and prior experience have a significant impact on switch back intentions. The study also finds that the worth of win-back offer moderates the relationship between prior experience and switch back intentions. However, it does not moderate the relationship between post-purchase regret and switch back intentions. These findings provide valuable insights for mobile service providers to understand the factors that influence customers' switch back intentions and to develop effective win-back strategies..

A diferença em jogo: primeira jogadora transexual na Superliga de voleibol do Brasil
Authors: Santos Fabrício de Paula
Published: May 2023

Neste ensaio, pretende-se descrever e refletir sobre a representação e o preconceito no esporte, a partir da história de uma atleta transexual de voleibol, no alto rendimento. O texto pretende trazer para o debate as marcas da exclusão e da violência que deixam vestígios no sujeito transexual. É um ensaio de caráter descritivo e qualitativo. Os teóricos que sustentam essa discussão são dos estudos de cultura. Apesar das questões fisiológicas, principalmente na questão de força muscular que envolvem a problemática sobre a atleta, sugerindo que ela poderia ter uma vantagem sobre as mulheres cisgênero, a grande discussão e reflexão neste ensaio não é por esse viés, apesar de ser importante. Aborda e problematiza sobre a representação de uma atleta transexual no meio esportivo e quais foram os caminhos tortuosos, por ela passado, para chegar até o alto rendimento. Pude inferir que a discussão sobre a representação e o gênero transexual no esporte não está fechada e deve estar em pauta. Que o preconceito e a discriminação que o transexual sofre no meio social, sobretudo no esporte, ainda é uma realidade dura e recorrente. Porém, todo esse cenário abjetista, de preconceito, desrespeito e desigualdade deve ser pensado, alterado e problematizado o quanto antes.
Revisiting the Relationship Between Receptive Vocabulary Knowledge and Receptive Language Proficiency – a Multi-Group SEM Approach
Authors: Ha Hung Tan
Published: May 2023

In recent years, applied linguists have paid more attention to the contributory roles of vocabulary knowledge in language subskills. However, little evidence has been collected to shed light upon the cross-modality relationship between the two modalities of receptive word knowledge, namely phonological and orthographic vocabulary, and receptive language skills, namely reading and listening comprehension. Moreover, the majority of studies conducted on the topic only examined the bivariate correlations between the modalities and did not take the shared variance of the constructs into account, making their findings superficial. The present study analyzed a dataset which reported the performance of 234 students on two validated tests of receptive phonological and orthographic vocabulary knowledge and two standardized tests of listening and reading proficiency. Multi-group, covariance-based structural equation modeling (CB-SEM) was applied. Results from the analyses showed that both aural and orthographic knowledge of words were of equal importance to learners’ receptive vocabulary knowledge. While whole-group results revealed that vocabulary knowledge contributed equally to learners’ reading and listening proficiency, multi-group analyses indicated noticeable differences in the contributory role of receptive word knowledge in comprehension between learners of different vocabulary size groups. The role of vocabulary size in the relationship between vocabulary knowledge and comprehension as well as practical implications for vocabulary assessment are discussed.
Review on unrelated parallel machine scheduling problem with additional resources
Authors: H. Abed Munther , Mohmad Kahar Mohd Nizam
Published: May 2023

This study deals with an unrelated parallel machine scheduling problem with additional resources (UPMR). That is one of the important sub-problems in the scheduling. UPMR consists of scheduling a set of jobs on unrelated machines. In addition to that, a number of one or more additional resources are needed. UPMR is very important and its importance comes from the wealth of applications; they are applicable to engineering and scientific situations and manufacturing systems such as industrial robots, nurses, machine operators, bus drivers, tools, assembly plant machines, fixtures, pallets, electricity, mechanics, dies, automated guided vehicles, fuel, and more. The importance also comes from the concern about the limitation of resources that are dedicated for the production process. Therefore, researchers and decision makers are still working on UPMR problem to get an optimum schedule for all instances which have not been obtained to this day. The optimum schedule is able to increase the profits and decrease the costs whilst satisfying the customers’ needs. This research aims to review and discuss studies related to unrelated parallel machines and additional resources. Overall, the review demonstrates the criticality of resolving the UPMR problem. Metaheuristic techniques exhibit significant effectiveness in generating results and surpassing other algorithms. Nevertheless, continued improvement is essential to satisfy the evolving requirements of UPMR, which are subject to operational changes based on customer demand.

Published: May 2023

Alfa Company is a medium-sized Iraqi distributor of laboratory equipment and supplies; in this study, we analyze their experience with implementing an automated inventory management system. This research explains the potential benefits and implementation challenges of such a system for small and medium-sized businesses. Improved inventory tracking, less storage fees, and happier consumers resulted from adopting this system. However, implementation was complex and time-consuming, requiring the expertise of outside IT consultants as well as the training of internal staff. This case study shows how beneficial it can be for small and medium-sized enterprises to work with external IT consultants and vendors to help them evaluate the costs and benefits of installing an automated inventory management system. In sum, the case study is instructive for other SMEs thinking about investing in automated inventory management systems to boost efficiency and cut costs.
Social Studies Education: A Veritable Tool for Achieving Value Re-Orientation and Sustainable Development in Nigeria
Authors: Omoniyi Mofoluwawo Esther
Published: May 2023

Education has been viewed by the international community as a fundamental human right and key development index. A key to sustainable development, peace and stability within and among countries. The rot in Nigerian society has affected the standard of value and moral character formation, greatly. This has manifested in so many anti-social vices exhibited by the Nigerian citizens. Antisocial vices exhibited include violent crimes, lack of accountability, greed, indiscipline, corruption, disrespect to constituted authority and a host of other vices. These have posed a serious moral problem for the Nigerian state and have set back all sincere efforts targeted at achieving sustainable development goals by 2030. This paper is out to examine how social studies education can serve as a veritable tool in achieving value re-orientation and sustainable development in Nigeria. The paper adopts descriptive approach and content analysis as its methodologies. Using a systematic random sampling method, a total of 100 respondents from five secondary schools in the two local government areas within Oyo metropolis was used. The data collected was analyzed using descriptive statistics of mean and standard deviation. The paper concludes that the problem is not lack of wealth but lack of essential value system in Nigerian society and that re – orientation in educational system would lead to redemption, and as well salvage the national character and image, which would lead to vibrant economy and sustainable development. The author suggests that the re - orientation of positive values through social studies education would promote national image, respect for human and corporate values while faithful and honest individual children and citizens should be rewarded and celebrated. It is high time the Nigerian government shunned the idea of celebrating mediocrity.

Authors: YAĞCI Ali
Published: May 2023

Günümüzün nüfus artışı, yurt dışından gelen göçler ve terör saldırıları göz önüne alındığında, özel güvenlik ihtiyacımızı inkâr edemeyiz. Ancak bu güvenlik biriminin sahip olması gereken özellikleri, eğitimin kalitesi ve bu eğitimin sürekliliği çerçevesinde tanımlamak daha doğru olacaktır. Güvenliğin karşılanması teknolojinin ve bilimin gelişmesiyle doğru orantılı olarak geliştirilmiş ve yönlendirilmiştir. Uygulamada bireyler ve devletler, farklı yöntemlerle insanların hayatlarını güvence altına almaya ve daha barışçıl bir yaşam alanı yaratılmasına yardımcı olmaya çalışmakta ve günümüzde de çalışmalarını sürdürmektedir. Güvenliğin sağlanması, dolaylı olarak genel kolluk kuvvetlerinin sorumluluğundadır. Genel kolluk kuvvetlerinin görevleri dışında kalan yerlerde ise güvenliği sağlayan ve görev yapan özel güvenlik görevlileri önemli bir unsurdur. Özel Güvenlik Hizmetlerine Dair Kanunun Uygulanmasına İlişkin Yönetmeliğin 33’üncü ve 34’üncü maddeleri gereğince, hava ve deniz limanlarında istihdam edilecek veya görev yapmakta olan ve özel güvenlik kimlik kartının yenilemesi gelmiş özel güvenlik görevlilerin uyuşturucu madde bilgisi dersine ek olarak hava ve deniz limanı güvenliği derslerinin verilmesi zorunludur. Türkiye’de özel güvenlik eğitiminin durumunu açıklamak için, temel özel güvenlik eğitimi veren özel güvenlik eğitim kurumları ile özel güvenlik ve koruma ön lisans programları düzeyinde eğitim veren üniversitelerin ders programları incelendiğinde, “uyuşturucu madde bilgisi”, “hava/deniz liman güvenliği” ve “terör/terörizm” derslerin mevcut durumları tespit edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu araştırma, nitel araştırma desenlerinden doküman analizi tekniğinde tasarlanmıştır.

To date, inconclusive data is available about the insight of the FTO gene variant with type 2 diabetes mellitus. T2DM is a chronic disease and a rising problem worldwide. Its complications lead to an increase in the burden of mortality specifically in lower and medium-income countries. Genome-wide association studies have spotted many genetic loci that are related to T2DM and validate the complicated polygenic traits. Many variants of different genes including FTO are associated with T2DM hence, this study was designed to inspect and unfold obscure data in South Asians. The main objective of present study is to identify the relation of FTO intronic variant rs9939609 with T2DM in Karachi-based Sindhi population of Pakistan. Total recruited individuals were grouped as diabetic cases and controls. Out of the total recruited subjects, genotyping was done on 152 samples using T-ARMS PCR however, demographic and clinical data were recorded of all individuals. The results showed that the frequency of variant genotypes in the diabetic case group was 11 % for AA, 45 % for AT and 44 % for TT though, the frequency of the lethal allele (T) was 34 %. These outcomes concluded, rare T allele frequency is higher among diabetic cases as compared to controls and provides the contribution from the Pakistani population to support the previous controversial findings. This study concluded FTO gene-single nucleotide polymorphism, rs9939609 is associated with T2DM but still, it is a growing need to do further studies on T2DM susceptible genes with different polymorphisms to recognize targets in the field of pharmacogenomics for clinical implementation.

Published: May 2023

The presented article examines the problem of students’ readiness to distance learning from the point of view of developing their mobility, as a priority characteristic of a modern specialist. The relevance of the problem is due to the processes of informatization of education as a modern trend in the development of education and the rapid introduction of distance learning in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. In this context, mobility is a significant quality of a specialist’s personality, which is manifested in readiness for various spatial movements and adaptation to different situations. The article presents the results of an empirical study of students of specialty 016 Special education, based on the results of an online survey. The results of the study showed the predominance of positive attitude of students to distance learning, the main advantages of which are convenience, time savings and the ability to get an education at home. The main disadvantage, in addition to poor-quality internet connection, is the lack of live communication, which is also the main need of students. Despite the positive assessment of distance learning, students do not consider it as high-quality and do not want to teach children with special educational needs remotely. In order to form students’ readiness towards distance learning and remote work, it is advisable to define the formation of mobility as the quality of a specialist in the process of professional training, since distance or blended learning is a modern form of education and has a significant potential for further development.

Social Studies and inclusive education aim at social development by ensuring education for all. The aim of this research is to comprehend the state of inclusive education in social studies education based on the perceptions and practices of the social studies teachers. Qualitative research approach and phenomenology pattern have been adopted in the research and 5 social studies teachers were participants. The research data has been collected through semi-structured interviews, student personal data sheet, observations, and researcher diaries. The data has been analyzed through induction analysis. As a result of the research, it has been revealed that social studies teachers had a positive perception of inclusive education but did not apply this approach in teaching processes as they did not find it viable. Teachers associate inclusive education to a greater extent with the SEN and refugee students and do not diversify educational teaching practices.

Canada is one of the countries with the highest scores in mathematics achievement tests according to OECD and PISA reports. In this connection, the current study was planned with the intention of comparing Turkey and Canada in terms of both their mathematics curricula and practices in mathematics classes. In the current study, it was aimed to compare 3rd grade mathematics curricula and mathematics classes in Turkey and Canada (Ontario) in general and to compare them in terms of curriculum and any educational and instructional activity conducted in the classroom environment so that similarities and differences could be determined. The study was structured as a comparative case study. For the Canadian part of the study, the 3rd grade mathematics classes of a private primary school in the Ontario Provincial Region were observed in the classroom for 3 months. Similarly, the 3rd grade mathematics classes of a state school located in a central district of high socio-economic status in the city of Ankara were observed. The data were obtained from in-class observations conducted throughout the whole process, interviews with the teacher, and the teaching materials and curricula used by the teachers and students in the process. The results of the study revealed that mathematical process skills were presented in a little more detail in the Canadian curriculum and that skills such as reflection, choosing the appropriate electronic equipment were associated with problem solving and reasoning. It was observed that the inclusion of different skills in the curriculum caused differentiation in the roles of teachers in the classroom. It was determined that Canadian mathematics classes were student-centred, were dominated by the active learning process and richer cognitive content that supported the development of problem solving and reasoning skills.
The Dislike between Colleagues in the Student Group Can Be an Additional Motive for Learning

The formation of motivation for learning is a complex process, which also depends on external influences, often remaining unconscious to the learner. A study was conducted to reveal causes for significant differences in the learning achievements between the small administratively formed student groups. The study identifies the emotional leaders, and the working hypothesis was that they influence the learning motivation of others – the group learns and has a high average grade if emotional leaders are studious students. And vice versa, if they are weak students the whole group lowers their grades. Material and methods. The advancement in physics of 18 administratively formed groups studying veterinary medicine at Trakia University, Stara Zagora, Bulgaria, was traced objectively by computer tests. The leading criterion in the formation of the groups is which foreign language was studied in high school, i.e. the criterion does not sort students into groups by his/her pre-training or intelligence. Results: The study used a survey, a modification of Moreno’s survey, in which students from each group were arranged in subgroups according to the emotional rank set by their colleagues. Students with a rank above 2/3 of the maximum were marked as “leaders”. Those with a rank below 1/3 as “anti-leaders”, and the rest – as “neutral”. The results from the study study showed that the initial hypothesis was not confirmed – with the highest correlation coefficient with the average grade of the groups was the average grade of the subgroup of anti-leaders, if they are studious students. I.e. the main external motive for learning in the studied case was not the example of the leaders, but striving not to lag behind colleagues to whom you feel negative feelings – from dislike to hatred.
