Compassion Fatigue in Small Scale Health Care Facility Nurses: Testing the Effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Authors: Tooba Arshad* and Kiran Bashir Ahmad
Published: May 2024

The aim of the present research is to explore the levels of compassion fatigue and examine the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) on compassion fatigue in nurses working in small scale healthcare facilities. This research compares two settings i.e., Individual and Training. It was hypothesized that there would be a significant difference in the levels of compassion fatigue, before and after cognitive behavioral therapy interventions among nurses. Secondly, it was also hypothesized that there would be a significant difference in the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy on compassion fatigue in nurses in individual settings, as compared to training settings. A sample of 30 nurses, recruited from two small scale healthcare facilities in Karachi were screened for compassion fatigue by using Professional Quality of Life Scale (ProQol) version 5. A total of Four nurses (M=24, SD=3.39) with high levels of compassion fatigue were facilitated by providing therapeutic intervention based on worksheets from a self-help workbook, ‘Overcoming Compassion Fatigue’ for both settings. The participants reported experiencing differing levels of compassion fatigue. Paired sample t- tests and Independent sample t- tests showed a significant difference (p < 0.05) in the levels of Compassion Fatigue post intervention. The findings also suggested absence of a significant difference (p > 0.05) in the levels of Compassion fatigue in nurses in individual settings as compared to training settings. The research carries implications for educators and psychologists as it proves the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy in treating compassion fatigue. Hospital management may find it beneficial to utilize the current treatment process using cognitive behavioral therapy to relieve burnout and compassion fatigue in nurses.
Experimental check on the theory of motivational components, duplicated in two interest areas
Authors: Cattell Raymond B. , McGill J. C. , Lawlis G. Frank , McGraw P.
Published: May 2024

Eighteen objective devices previously validated as interest measures, and chosen as markers to test the hypothesis that there are seven disignatable motivation components, were administered to 135 undergraduates for each of two attitude-interests wanting to participate in sports and wanting to get better grades. Both areas pointed to 8 or 9 factors and eight were taken and rotated to maximum simple structure on most factors. The agreement of patterns at these unique independent resolutions was tested by both congruence coefficients, r's, and salient variable similarity indices, s's which showed (a) significant agreement of the majority of factors with the hypotheses expressing, in patterns, the previous researches, (b) significant agreement of sports and grades, indication independence of motivation components with respect to area of interest. However, three factors showed some weakness of match in one leg of three cornered comparison of grades, sports and pioneer experiments. An alternative theory is presented here according to which four of the factors are considered to align themselves with dynamic calculus concepts represented in the specification equation for an intereset from ergs, sentiments, the arousal adjunct to an erg, and the activation expression of a sentiment.
Verbal-quantitative differential as indicator of temperamental differences
Authors: Schuerger James M. , Kepner J. , Lawler B.
Published: May 2024

With verbal and quantitative scores commonly available, the correlation of the difference between these two ability scores (VQDF) and temperamental differences would be of interest to clinicians and researchers. Previous research has suggested such correlations exist, although the personality measures, subject characteristics and methods of determining VQDF have varied widely. In the present study VQDF (verbal minus quantitative) scores are correlated with personality (16PF and HSPQ) and vocational interest scores for males and females in both high school and college populations. Results show consistent trends for correlations of the VQDF with a number of personality and vocational interest variables: high verbal persons are more tenderminded, bold, less anxious and similar to lawyers; high quantitative persons are more guilt prone, anxious, tough-minded and similar in interests to mathematicians. Results are discussed in relation to age difference. Arguments are presented for use of this methodology for studying VQDF and personality correlations. An example for the clinical use of these results is given.

IDE ATAU GAGASAN TENTANG RESGISTRASI ASURANSI TANAH DI INDONESIA DAN PERBANDINGANNYA DENGAN NEGARA-NEGARA LAIN
Authors: Arya Ghossan Daffa
Published: May 2024

Dalam rangka pengembangan sistem pendaftaran tanah yang positif, pemerintah diharapkan membentuk lembaga penjaminan pendaftaran tanah. Lembaga ini berperan penting dalam menjamin kepastian hukum mengenai kepemilikan hak atas tanah. Oleh karena itu, tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengembangkan konsep asuransi pendaftaran tanah dengan membandingkannya dengan negara lain yang telah menerapkan konsep asuransi pendaftaran tanah. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah yuridis normatif, dengan fokus utama pada data sekunder yang didukung oleh data primer. Salah satu alternatif yang bisa diambil pemerintah adalah dengan mendirikan Badan Usaha Milik Negara (BUMN) yang bergerak di bidang asuransi pendaftaran tanah. BUMN mempunyai tanggung jawab untuk memberikan ganti rugi kepada masyarakat yang memenangkan gugatan di pengadilan atau kepada pemilik hak atas tanah yang hak atas tanahnya dicabut berdasarkan putusan pengadilan. Negara akan membayar premi kepada perusahaan asuransi untuk setiap hak atas tanah yang didaftarkan. Premi asuransi akan dibayarkan satu kali setelah sertifikat hak atas tanah diterbitkan, selama tanah tersebut tidak mengalami transaksi kepemilikan. Namun apabila terjadi peralihan hak atas tanah melalui berbagai cara seperti jual beli atau mekanisme peralihan lainnya, maka pemerintah wajib membayar kembali premi asuransi kepada perusahaan asuransi pendaftaran tanah setiap kali terjadi peralihan kepemilikan hak atas tanah. .

Energy security, environment and economy are the three major pillars of a country. These parameters not only secure a better quality of life for the citizens but also protect the country against an unwanted threat and economic crises. The energy need in India is primarily fulfilled by burning of the fossil fuels, but their reserves are limited and may deplete very soon. Also, they emit a large amount of CO2 gas in the environment which is a key driver for the global warming. Therefore, to sustain the economy and protect the environment, India is focusing on the use of renewable energy; particularly solar and wind energy. In this article we have assessed the potential of these two energy sources in terms of material availability, waste generated and its disposal. At the end we have compared it with the well-established nuclear energy technology. Finding the future of a technology based on the raw material availability and its final treatment is necessary to make a self-reliant and sustainable technology, as India is progressing towards the same.

Hydroelectric cell (HEC) is a green energy device known for its potential to replace solar cell and fuel cell in coming decades. Among number of materials explored, tin oxide-based cells have shown a huge potential to deliver high current densities with high activation losses. In this study, to overcome the activation loss, tin oxide-hematite composite based HEC power characteristics has been analysed. The composite cell delivered a short circuit current density of Isc~7.0 mA/cm2 and peak power of Pden ~ 26.9 mW. More structural defects were found to nucleate in the composite compared to pure tin oxide confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed the high surface area and porous microstructure of the composite. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) confirmed the presence of chemi-dissociated and physisorbed water molecules on the composite surface. The composite based hydroelectric cell displayed low activation losses compared to the bare SnO2 HEC observed by the V-I characteristics. A significant role of Fe3+ cations has been found crucial for the reduction in activation energy barrier in the composite based HEC.

Dynamic leaching tests were carried out on solid wastes generated from the uranium mining and milling industry under different physico-chemical conditions to assess the mobility of uranium from these matrices. The mobile/ soluble fraction of uranium leached out very slowly; being faster in the initial stages and then attaining a near steady state condition in most cases. Uranium leaching was observed to increase with decreasing initial pH, reducing particle size and increasing temperatures. A maximum of 2.4% uranium was leached out under highly acidic conditions in the experimental time period. Leachability index values indicated weak leaching of uranium from the wastes under all conditions. Leaching kinetics was examined with the help of a heterogeneous reaction model. Model results and apparent activation energy values indicated the leaching process to be initially reaction controlled and subsequently diffusion controlled. The apparent rate constants displayed dependence on the particle sizes of the tailings. All results obtained from this study imply that the extent of uranium leaching from these solid mining wastes is extremely low. This indicates low mobility and negligible transfer to other environmental compartments.

“A Matemática está em tudo!” Respostas como esta costumam ser ditas por diferentes pessoas que apreciam a Matemática, e que geralmente são só frases ditas sem seu devido fundamento. Ao pensarmos nisso, surgiu a problematização, como podemos trabalhar a questão de desperdício de alimentos em uma escola, conscientizar os estudantes e ensinar Matemática? Com este trabalho, temos por objetivo discutir a questão de desperdício de alimentos, conscientizar os estudantes e ensinar Matemática. Para tanto, utilizamos os dados referentes ao desperdício diário de alimentos em uma escola, trabalhando em conjunto com os estudantes na interpretação desses dados, através dos conceitos computacionais e estatísticos. Ademais, é sabido que, no mundo conectado em que vivemos, o pensamento computacional é de suma importância, não apenas para aprender a programar, mas também para obter uma compreensão mais abrangente do mundo em que se vive. É importante frisar que o pensar computacionalmente não é apenas ensinar a programar, mas sim, a interpretar, analisar e abstrair a concatenação de ideias das mais simples até as mais elaboradas. Salienta-se a importância do ensino da educação estatística, pois na sociedade contemporânea, uma pessoa que não consegue interpretar dados de tabelas e gráficos, tem dificuldade de entender o funcionamento e a organização das informações que recebe. Em outras palavras, esse campo do saber contribui para a formação cidadã do aluno, além de possibilitar o seu entendimento de problemas do mundo real e de deixá-los escolher suas próprias estratégias para solucioná-los.

The environment, as a place where life flows, has undergone crisis and transformation in the contemporary era more than in other periods of history. This process of crisis in the field of the environment has attracted the attention of countries and international institutions to prevent the spread of these crises as much as possible by taking measures at the international, regional and national levels. Undoubtedly, there is no other way to seriously deal with this crisis except for cooperation between governments and international institutions at the global level. The United Nations as an organization that is the manifestation of the presence of governments in the 1960s put attention to the environment on its agenda and prepared the preparations for holding the first international environmental conference in Stockholm in 1972. The United Nations, through its main bodies and subsidiary bodies such as UNEP, the United Nations Commission on Sustainable Development, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, as well as through its affiliated specialized institutions such as UNESCO, FAO, IMO, and the World Meteorological Organization, has been able to take measures. To be effective in protecting the environment. Also, international organizations have been able to carry out activities in the direction of education on environmental issues, formulation and development of international environmental laws, settlement of environmental disputes, and cooperation and coordination among institutions active in the field of environment. In general, international organizations with their activities in the field of the environment have been able to solve the gaps in international environmental law to a significant extent. Finally, it can be said that the existence of international environmental law in its current form and the optimal preservation of the environment are largely due to the activities of international organizations.

All human beings, from the moment of birth to the moment of death, without any exception, will face all kinds of bitter and sweet events, which are sometimes chosen and sometimes out of the individual's will, but either by choice or imposed, These events will have an effect on the nervous system. Because after a person enters this world from the safe environment of his mother's womb, until the moment of death, he must know his complex world and always make conscious and unconscious efforts to survive. Being according to the customs of the society or in other words becoming the same colour as the congregation is one of the most common methods of a person in order to maintain his position in society in order to ensure his survival. One of the methods of observing this behavioural phenomenon in humans is the behaviour and trading decisions of a person in the face of the price movement trend in the financial markets based on financial-behavioural. The present study is a review of the concept of price correction and its justification in behavioural finance using the Jabal Ameli chartical method, which is descriptive-analytical, and the information data required for it is collected by library and document research methods. The obtained results indicate that entering the price movement process at any point of the financial market without taking into account sufficient skill in managing it is one of the most fundamental reasons for the formation of correction and such transactions and correction can be achieved. He considered it a kind of defence mechanism to relieve the stress of the nervous system

Cancer is known as a very dangerous and incurable disease, with symptoms such as pain and disability. In recent years, changes in the way people live have increased the prevalence of breast cancer in different societies. This terrible disease has increased research in this field. Astaxanthin is one of the most famous natural carotenoids, which, due to its strong antioxidant activity, can prevent cardiovascular diseases, strengthen the body's immune system, and prevent cell ageing. In this study, the effect of astaxanthin on MCF-7 cancer cells was investigated. After culturing the cells in 96-well plates, they were treated with different concentrations of astaxanthin and then evaluated using the MTT method. The results showed that astaxanthin can inhibit cell growth and induce apoptosis, and this effect is enhanced by increasing the concentration of astaxanthin, so that at a concentration of 100 μM, the rate of apoptosis increased to 35%. Therefore, it can be concluded that astaxanthin may be used as a control treatment for cancer.

Authors: Zhang Mai
Published: May 2024

The subject of the study is the consideration of modern trends in the study of fine art, in particular Russian portrait and narrative painting of the beginning of the XXI century. The object is scientific works related to various fields of the humanities, namely: art history, aesthetics, anthropology, sociology, philosophy, psychology, etc. Using their material, it is possible to show not only the difference in approaches to understanding the essence and role of the image of a modern person in the art process, but also to demonstrate the specifics of the artistic interpretation of this figurative system in the context of art criticism, cultural and philosophical issues. Such a study allows us to systematize existing ideas about the peculiarities of the development of anthropological subjects in the mainstream of contemporary fine art in modern Russia, to identify the main directions. The main methodological basis of the study was a systematic approach that allowed us to consider contemporary Russian art as a single system. This helped to compare the approaches of modern researchers analyzing the place and role of the human image in it. Through the postmodern paradigm of perception and interpretation of anthropological topics, to identify the essential features of the ideas of Russian scientists. Methods of art historical analysis were also used. The starting point of the research is that at the moment in Russian science there is a body of art history and cultural studies devoted to the development of contemporary art in the country. However, there are no works summarizing the existing experience of scientists and defining the main directions of scientific thought. In light of this, the scientific novelty of the article lies in expanding the understanding of the methodological apparatus necessary for the analysis of the anthropological trend in the visual arts of our time, which is a promising path for future research in this area. The most demanded conceptual philosophical and historical-cultural foundations for the analysis and solution of practical problems in the field of contemporary art in relation to the representation of the human image are identified. Empirical research material has been collected and analyzed.

Introdução: O crescente aumento da população idosa faz aumentar proporcionalmente a demanda por cuidados hospitalares devido ao aumento dos problemas de saúde. Objetivo: Estimar a prevalência e incidência de hospitalizações, e investigar fatores associados, em idosos da Zona da Mata Mineira, Brasil, entre 2016-2018. Secundariamente, com intuito de fornecer um panorama epidemiológico mais abrangente acerca das hospitalizações, foram estimadas: taxa mensal de hospitalização; taxa de mortalidade hospitalar; frequência de hospitalizações conforme o diagnóstico, internações por condições sensíveis à atenção primária (ICSAP) e óbito hospitalar; e custos hospitalares. Método: Trata-se de um estudo ecológico e descritivo-analítico. Os dados foram obtidos do Sistema de Informação Hospitalar brasileiro (SIH/SUS). Resultados: A prevalência de hospitalizações em idosos foi de 35,1% (31,2% em mulheres e 39,7% em homens). A taxa mensal de hospitalização foi maior em homens idosos quando comparados com mulheres idosas (Razão-de-Taxas=1,35 [IC 95%=1,27-1,43]) e homens adultos entre 40–59 anos (Razão-de-Taxas=2,42 [IC 95%=2,26-2,58]). A incidência acumulada de hospitalização foi de 144/1.000 idosos (125/1.000 mulheres e 169/1.000 homens). Os fatores significativamente associados com as hospitalizações foram: sexo masculino (RP=1,52 [IC 95%=1,11–2,08]), internação em leito cirúrgico (RP=1,93 [IC 95%=1,05–3,56]), ausência de óbito (RP=1,94 [IC 95%=1,03-3,65]) e permanência hospitalizado ≥15 dias (RP=0,71 [IC 95%=0,54-0,95]). O custo das hospitalizações foi de R$ 220,8 milhões (média de R$ 201,7 mil/dia). Conclusão: Os resultados reforçam a necessidade de cuidados preventivos à saúde da população idosa da Zona da Mata Mineira e alertam gestores para o substancial impacto socioeconômico gerado pelas hospitalizações.

Scopoletin (Sc) is a coumarin phytoalexin which is biosynthesized by numerous plants including Scopolia carniolica, Scopolia japonica, Artemisia scoparia, and Viburnum prunifolium. The main goal of this study was to perform a systemic bioinformatics on the anti-colon cancer effects of Scopoletin. A holistic bioinformatics strategy was developed to predict the mechanisms by Sc that protects colon health. Comparative toxicogenomics database and DisGeNET database were used to discover potential genes. The protein-protein interactions (PPIs) PPI network was constructed using STRING and visualized by Cytoscape software. Based on a multi-pathway network using the molecular complex detection plugin of Cytoscape, it was observed that Sc may protect colon cancer by suppressing the oxidative stress and inhibiting inflammation through regulation of nuclear factor erythroid-related factor-2 signaling pathway, inflammation associated pathways, apoptosis pathway, autophagy pathway, cell proliferation signaling, and insulin sensitizing pathway. Gene ontology analysis generates highly interconnected pathways that are the basis for biological process, molecular function, and cellular components, as well as pathway enrichment analysis. Our findings contributed to the investigation of molecular mechanisms and the identification of potential target biomarkers for the treatment of colon cancer.

Hibernation is a period of metabolic suppression utilized by many small and large mammal species to survive during winter periods. As the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood, our study aimed to determine whether skeletal muscle myosin and its metabolic efficiency undergo alterations during hibernation to optimize energy utilization. We isolated muscle fibers from small hibernators,
Ictidomys tridecemlineatus
and
Eliomys quercinus
and larger hibernators,
Ursus arctos
and
Ursus americanus
. We then conducted loaded Mant-ATP chase experiments alongside X-ray diffraction to measure resting myosin dynamics and its ATP demand. In parallel, we performed multiple proteomics analyses. Our results showed a preservation of myosin structure in
U. arctos
and
U. americanus
during hibernation, whilst in
I. tridecemlineatus
and
E. quercinus
, changes in myosin metabolic states during torpor unexpectedly led to higher levels in energy expenditure of type II, fast-twitch muscle fibers at ambient lab temperatures (20°C). Upon repeating loaded Mant-ATP chase experiments at 8°C (near the body temperature of torpid animals), we found that myosin ATP consumption in type II muscle fibers was reduced by 77-107% during torpor compared to active periods. Additionally, we observed Myh2 hyper-phosphorylation during torpor in
I. tridecemilineatus
, which was predicted to stabilize the myosin molecule. This may act as a potential molecular mechanism mitigating myosin-associated increases in skeletal muscle energy expenditure during periods of torpor in response to cold exposure. Altogether, we demonstrate that resting myosin is altered in hibernating mammals, contributing to significant changes to the ATP consumption of skeletal muscle. Additionally, we observe that it is further altered in response to cold exposure and highlight myosin as a potentially contributor to skeletal muscle non-shivering thermogenesis.
