Impact of Boundary Roughness and MHD on Saturation of Rayleigh-Taylor Instability at the Interface between Two Superposed Couple-Stress Fluids
Authors: Gouder Priya M. , Marali G. B. , Chandaragi Praveen I. , Chavaraddi Krishna B.
Published: January 2025

This study is about the influence at the boundary between two Couple-stress Casson fluids which are superposed on Rayleigh- Taylor instability (RTI) flowing in the existence of a uniform magnetic field acting normal to the surface in porous medium. The density of both the fluids is not the same. Established on fully developed approximations the stability analysis is applied, to achieve mathematical ease. The maximum wave numbers as well as resulting maximum frequency are found. In this analysis we discussed, the evolution of Rayleigh-Taylor unsteadiness due to non-Newtonian couple-stress Casson fluids over porous media. Graphical representations of stability that are discussed numerically based on the consequences of physical parameters for instance permeability parameter, non-Newtonian parameter, magnetic parameter, and couple-stress parameter.

The current study presents a numerical model of emitted viscous nanomaterial by the stretching of the surface with porous media, Ohmic effect and suction or blowing. The partial differential equation is converted into a system of basic differential equations using the appropriate technique. The RKF45 approach is used to provide a numerical solution to the resulting problem. The influence of several significant parameters on velocity values, concentration, temperature, and the Nusselt number is calculated, and demonstrations are presented using figures and tables. The results obtained are compared to those obtained earlier. The main conclusions of this study are that heat transfer rate increases with Ohmic effect and decreases with porosity and suction/blowing effect. The findings have ramifications in a variety of sectors, including nuclear reactors, synthetic fabrics, metal extrusion, and crystal formation.

Published: January 2025

This study focuses on the proficient synthesis of a Copper Sulfide (CuS) nanocomposite using the hydrothermal method at four distinct reaction temperatures: 130°C, 150°C, 170°C, and 200°C, each with a 5-hour duration. Comprehensive characterization through Powder X-ray Diffraction (PXRD), UV-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) has been undertaken to analyze the morphological, optical, and compositional aspects of the synthesized sample. Key findings include the identification of a hexagonal phase of CuS nanostructures, closely aligned with reference data (JCPDS card no 9000062), and an average crystallite size ranging from 17nm to 26nm. SEM imaging reveals a distinctive petal-like flower morphology in the CuS nanomaterial. Energy Dispersive Spectra (EDS) confirms the presence of copper (Cu) and sulfur (S) elements in the nanocomposite. The optical analysis demonstrates a direct type of allowed transition and variable band gap values (ranging from 2.07eV to 1.92eV), suggesting potential applications in optoelectronics and the significant influence of reaction temperature on the stability and size of the CuS nanocomposite, highlighting the critical role of temperature control in the synthesis process.

The Effect of Toxic Leadership on Turnover with Job Satisfaction as a Mediating Variable(Case Study of Generation Z in West Java)
Authors: Hidayat Muhammad Alif , Wulansari Puspita
Published: January 2025

This study aims to examine the impact of toxic leadership on employee turnover, with job satisfaction serving as a mediating variable, particularly among Generation Z. Currently dominating the workforce; Generation Z exhibits a high turnover rate, often driven by low job satisfaction and unsupportive leadership styles. Toxic leadership, characterized by manipulative, authoritarian behaviour and a lack of responsiveness to criticism, fosters an unhealthy work environment and diminishes employee satisfaction. This decline in job satisfaction increases employees' intentions to leave the organization, raising turnover rates.
The research employs the SEM-Lisler method to analyze the relationships between toxic leadership, job satisfaction, and turnover. The findings reveal that toxic leadership significantly and negatively affects job satisfaction and turnover. Additionally, job satisfaction mediates the relationship between toxic leadership and turnover.
The study's implications highlight the importance of addressing toxic leadership within organizations by implementing training programs focused on ethics, transparency, and empathy. These initiatives can enhance job satisfaction and reduce turnover, particularly among Generation Z employees.
Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections and Lithium Therapy: A Case Report on Treatment Considerations
Authors:   Family Medicine, Tuakau Health Centre, New Zealand, Kasmieh Dr Omar
Published: January 2025

Lithium is a medication often used in multiple psychiatric conditions. Lithium salts have a limited
therapeutic window, necessitating caution in prescribing and requiring adequate monitoring of serum
lithium levels. Several factors can impact lithium concentration, including changes in diet and fluid intake,
illness, and adherence to treatment. The half-life of lithium is approximately 24 hours and is longer in
cases of renal impairment. Lithium should be initiated in secondary healthcare settings. After initiation,
patients are managed under a shared care protocol to monitor lithium levels and kidney function.
Primary healthcare doctors serve as gatekeepers for these patients; high suspicion and sufficient
knowledge about the signs and symptoms of lithium toxicity are mandatory to avoid toxicity and to ensure
early involvement of secondary care assessment. This case highlights the importance of regular monitoring
of medications like lithium and for family physicians to be mindful of any conditions that may impact
lithium levels, such as recurrent urinary tract infections, which affect the kidneys. It also emphasizes the
need to consider other treatment options that are not influenced by renal function.
Keywords: bipolar disorder, lithium toxicity, monitoring lithium, recurrent Urinary tract infection,
consideration of other treatment.

“Não Existe Pecado do Lado Debaixo do Equador”: Neoliberalismo e Formação no Ensino Médio
Authors: Voss Dulce Mari da Silva , Krakhecke Eliada Mayara Alves , Silva Cristiano Rodrigues da
Published: January 2025

Este ensaio teórico aborda a influência da agenda neoliberal global no delineamento das políticas educacionais de regulação do ensino médio. Objetiva-se discutir a formação geral e profissional de nível médio em relação ao discurso de qualificação para o “mundo do trabalho”, previsto na Constituição Federal de 1988 e na Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional de 1996. O estudo é feito com base na perspectiva teórico-epistemológica pós-estruturalista, a partir de teorizações de Ball (2022), Foucault (2006; 2008) Laclau (2005) e Mouffe (2003), associadas a outras análises. Considera-se que as reformas promovidas pelas políticas educacionais brasileiras de regulação da oferta e organização curricular do ensino médio, integrado ou não à educação profissional, têm sido guiadas pelas demandas da agenda neoliberal global. Ou seja, a formação dos jovens e adultos nesta etapa da escolarização está centrada na aquisição de competências, no neotecnicismo e no empreendedorismo, elementos compatíveis com as exigências do sistema capitalista. O que coloca em funcionamento o regime colonial-capitalístico de expropriação do trabalho e das forças vitais, imbricado pela governamentalidade biopolítica neoliberal, que governa corpos e condutas. Assim, na ordem social e política ora vigente, está em curso a produção da subjetividade cognominada por Foucault (2008) de homo ecomonicus, aquele que governa sua conduta a partir de metas e objetivos bem calculados. Um sujeito que se joga de corpo e alma na formação para a empregabilidade, agarrado à ilusão de sucesso na vida e carreira profissional, a qualquer preço.

PATIOLOGIA: experiências curriculares no ensino médio baiano
Authors: Oliveira Iris Verena , Martins Tamires Fraga , Carvalhal Tito Loiola
Published: January 2025

No texto, o pátio escolar é tratado como uma zona aberta para a prática do currículo, em que diversos corpos, tempos, territórios e histórias se encontram. Nesse artigo, colocamos em diálogo nossas experiências, tanto enquanto estudantes da educação básica, quanto do curso de pedagogia, e, agora, como trabalhadoras da educação, nesse espaço pulsante que alimenta nossas formações. Tratamos dessa dimensão curricular indisciplinada, que despontou em nós como fôlego vital durante os anos da graduação no ensino superior e que vem sendo ressignificada como prática do quilombismo na escola básica: a patiologia. Para isso, buscamos aproximar os pátios de uma escola pública de Ensino Médio em Conceição do Coité, interior da Bahia, e o pátio da Faculdade de Educação da Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA), situada na capital do estado, ao tempo em que problematizamos as Diretrizes Curriculares para o Ensino Médio da Bahia. Assumindo a conversa como metodologia de pesquisa (Sampaio; Ribeiro; Souza, 2021) e questionando perspectivas hierárquicas na formação docente, partilhamos cenários que constroem currículos, ambiências e experiências que nos possibilitam enxergar a potência do pátio como território de produção de vida coletiva, de produção e troca de conhecimentos. Nos reivindicando patiólogas, não abrimos mão das pedagogias que só uma patiologia pode cultivar, ao tempo em que reivindicamos salas de aula com condições objetivas garantidas, para que sonhar seja uma possibilidade para a juventude baiana vulnerabilizada, conduzida compulsoriamente ao mundo do trabalho precarizado, seja pela expulsão escolar ou pelo sucesso do projeto de cidadania racista e burguesa que ainda segue ditando regras por essas terras.

Authors: Rodrigues Linduarte Pereira , Barbosa Clecinara de Freitas
Published: January 2025

O samba, patrimônio imaterial do Brasil, faz parte da formação da identidade nacional. Por isso, seu “canto” encanta, ao passo que conta o cotidiano do povo brasileiro. Sua formação como música ocorreu a partir de um percurso sociocultural e histórico marcado por lutas e resistências de um povo, em grande parte, de origem afrodescendente. Nesta perspectiva, é objetivo geral deste trabalho promover o ensino de língua(gens) através do samba na aula de Língua Portuguesa do Ensino Médio, a partir de propostas de atividades que envolvam o desenvolvimento de um letramento sociocultural e histórico (Rodrigues, 2017a). Para tanto, foi realizada uma pesquisa exploratória, bibliográfica e documental, bem como aplicada, a fim de promover um ensino de língua(gens) que aliasse o gosto e a identificação pela leitura de um gênero textual, o samba, e o letramento escolar. Com as reflexões propostas, seguiu-se para uma pesquisa propositiva, selecionando três sambas e propondo três atividades. Como resultado, a pesquisa demonstrou uma possibilidade de trabalho com um gênero textual que é símbolo de brasilidade, propiciando um direcionamento de ações didático-pedagógicas, em que o aluno do Ensino Médio pode desenvolver uma aprendizagem coerente com a sua atuação numa sociedade cultural e historicamente letrada.

Authors: Bakar Abu , Prastyo Angga Teguh , Lestantyo Prayudi
Published: January 2025

Most of the intolerance issues in Indonesia are due to the lack of a comprehensive understanding of the urgency of maintaining social diversity among different ethnicities and religious adherents. This study argues that the application of religious moderation by involving socio-cultural and religious values will be able to make religious moderation in line with the values faced by the local community. Therefore, the study formulates that the principles of socio-cultural and religious values will strengthen religious moderation at the level of education and the wider community because they have great relevance and impact on social development. This study uses a qualitative method with a case study approach in educational institutions in Bali which explains in detail the implementation of social and cultural-based religious moderation in educational institutions. The results of the study show that (1) the existence of religious moderation material based on social and cultural values is able to form agreements and shared understanding among students to care about tolerance and peaceful life in their environment. (2) Socio-cultural and religious values can be used as an enrichment of religious moderation material in schools and other educational institutions. The implications of the use of socio-cultural and religious values in the development of religious moderation are able to make religious moderation more actual and relevant to students' lives in responding to social issues and religious fundamentalism.

Beltsville Thawing Solution (BTS) is a common diluent used in the preservation of pig sperm. However,its capacity to preserve sperm motility and longevity, is severely limited. One of the reasons is the diluent lacks antioxidants in sufficient amounts to counteract the harmful effects of free radicals. The objective of the study wasaimed to evaluate the efficaciousness of BTS,Mulberry III (MIII)and Sperm Life diluents in conjunction with Moringa leaf ethanol extract (MLe2) for the preservation of landrace pigs’sperm.Semen was collected from one landrace boar aged 2.9years. Semen evaluation was performed both macroscopically and microscopically, and good quality semen was split into three tubes and diluted with BTS, MIII and Sperm Life diluent, to which 4% MLe2 had been added. Semen preservation was done in a cool box at a temperature of 18-20oC andevery eight hours, sperm motility, viability, intact-plasma membrane and acrosomal were assessed. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance and continued with the Duncan Test.The study's findings demonstrated that, in comparison to Sperm Life, BTS and MIII diluents added with MLe2 produced sperm of higher quality. It was concluded that BTS and MIII diluents enriched with E2dk were more effective than Sperm Life in maintaining the sperm quality of landrace pigs
Unpacking Tax Relations in Contexts of Fragility: A Case Study of Somalia
Authors: Sahgal Gayatri
Published: January 2025

The broader tax literature suggests that taxpayers are more likely to pay taxes when states provide ‘reciprocal returns’, including collective public goods and services, basic security, some level of representation, and accountability of public institutions.

While such explanations of taxpayers’ willingness to pay taxes are compelling in the context of developed states, they are less applicable to more fragile polities. In such settings, the state typically has low enforcement capacity and struggles to provide security or effectively deliver public goods in an accountable manner.

This paper seeks to contribute to and bridge gaps in the literature by exploring tax relations in one of the world’s most fragile contexts. It focuses on Somalia, where businesses in the Telecommunications (Telecom), banking, and financial sectors emerged in the context of statelessness.

Unpacking Tax Relations in Contexts of Fragility: A Case Study of Somalia
Authors: Sahgal Gayatri
Published: January 2025

This paper examines fiscal relations in contexts of fragility. It focuses on the tax relationship between the post-transitional Somali government and advanced businesses in the telecommunications sector, which emerged during the period of state collapse. The paper poses two specific questions. It asks why such dominant economic players would pay taxes to a state that, per standard tax theory, had limited authority, legitimacy, and capacity to deliver ‘reciprocal returns’ or collective goods and services. Secondly, for a sector that had emerged in the context of statelessness, it interrogates whether some level of state capacity had become ‘pivotal for business’? In doing so, the paper assesses the impact of fiscal relations on broader state-building dynamics.

In interrogating these questions, the paper employs a qualitative process tracing approach and draws on recent anthropological research on fiscal exchanges and emerging insights from the fragile state experience. The paper finds that as the sector transformed, becoming more decentralised, technologically advanced and internationalised, there were specific ‘returns’ that the sector required from a formal state, which underlaid the sector’s tax motivations. However, while the Telecom sector demonstrated increasing support for the state project and was willing to make specific tax contributions – regulatory fees for licences and sales taxes – it resisted corporate taxes. Such fiscal dynamics demonstrated that the sector’s level of investment in the state project was tentative. As such, there was still some way to go before the formal state institutions were seen as critical for business.

Impact of water stress on Phaeomoniella chlamydospora abundance and Petri disease symptom development in young grapevines
Authors: Hrycan Jared , Bowen Pat , Forge Thomas , Hart Miranda , Úrbez-Torres José Ramón
Published: January 2025

Phaeomoniella chlamydospora (Pch) is one of the main pathogens causing Petri disease, a grapevine trunk disease responsible for the decline and mortality of grapevines within a few years after planting. Phaeomoniella chlamydospora has been shown to be prevalent in asymptomatic grapevine nursery material, leading to the hypothesis that it may act as a latent pathogen, transitioning from an endophytic to a pathogenic phase under grapevine stress. To investigate this hypothesis, a two-year greenhouse and a four-year field experiment were conducted on young self-rooted ‘Merlot’, and ‘Merlot’ grafted onto ‘SO4’ rootstock, artificially inoculated with different spore concentrations of Pch and subjected to water stress. Additionally, the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Rhizophagus irregularis was inoculated in the soil in the greenhouse experiment to investigate its effects on abiotic stress mitigation and thus, disease development in water stressed and non-stressed grapevines. DNA was extracted from the grapevine wood, and Droplet Digital™ PCR was conducted to determine Pch abundance before and after the experiments. In the greenhouse, Pch abundance in inoculated grapevines was greater in water stressed grapevines treated with AM than in stressed grapevines without AM or in non-stressed grapevines. Basal necrosis was greater in grapevines inoculated with Pch. In the field, Pch abundance was not affected by water stress, but basal necrosis was greater in grapevines inoculated with a high spore concentration of the fungus. Symptoms resembling Petri disease developed in the third year of the field experiment, where water stress increased grapevine mortality. This study shows that water stress may increase Pch abundance and mortality in young grapevines within the first few years after planting.

Despite the increasing frequency of cattle in residential areas, particularly in residential neighbourhoods, little is known about the potential health hazards associated with their presence. This cross-sectional investigation examined the incidence of zoonotic agents in 108 cattle samples collected from various locations around Mosul city. The standardized medical examination and livestock owner interviews occurred from October 4 to December 18, 2024. We identified bacterial pathogens in samples from each animal's pharynx, nose, ear, mouth, and faeces. We determined that all of the cattle were in excellent health. Out of 108 cattle, 84 (or 78% of the total) tested positive for zoonotic agents. The principal pathogen was ESBL Escherichia coli (E. coli) isolated from 51 (60.7%) faecal samples. We isolated extended-spectrum beta-lactamase C. difficil organisms from 16 cows (19%). We isolated MRSA from 12 (14.3%), VRE from 3 (3.6%), and Salmonella spp. from 2 (2.4%) of the cows. ESBL E. coli showed significant resistance, particularly to amoxicillin (86.3%) and gentamicin (78.4%). Clostridium difficile exhibited complete resistance to amoxicillin (100%), while MRSA demonstrated full resistance to several antibiotics, including gentamicin and vancomycin. VRE and Salmonella spp. also displayed high resistance rates.
Highlights:

Zoonotic Agents in Cattle: 78% tested positive in residential areas.
Pathogen Resistance: ESBL E. coli, MRSA, and others showed high resistance.
Health Hazards: Antibiotic-resistant bacteria pose significant public health risks.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a gram negative bacterium, the prevalence of which is associated with chronic gastric infection and nutritional abnormalities. The purpose of this study is to ascertain the relationship between H. pylori infection and serum vitamin D3, PTH, calcium and iron levels in adults. The cross-sectional study was carried out at Al-Nasiriyah teaching hospital 20 patient with H. pylori infection and 20 healthy individuals. Blood samples were also examined for the presence of vitamin D3, PTH, calcium and iron content. It is shown that H. pylori-positive patients had significantly decreased serum vitamin D3, calcium and iron concentration, and increased PTH level comparing with control group. These results provide preliminary evidence to indicate that H. pylori infection may cause disorders in vitamin D3, calcium, iron metabolism that maybe associated with the impaired nutrient utilization that has clinical significance such as osteoporosis and anemia. More studies should be done to discover the causes of these depots and their effects on individuals with H. pylori
Highlights:
 

H. pylori causes chronic gastric infections and nutritional issues.
Infection reduces vitamin D3, calcium, iron; increases PTH levels.
Linked to osteoporosis, anemia; further studies recommended.

Hepatitis C virus is a major health problem because of its effect on the liver and health and its being life-threatening if not treated early. It also affects the blood parameters of those infected. The current study conducted in Thi-Qar province revealed changes in some blood parameters of the infected group compared to the control group, where a slight decrease was recorded in WBCs, RBCs,  PCV, MCV, MCH, PLT, Lymp. but no significant differences were found, except for red blood cells, which were 0.03 at a significant level 0.05. It was also found that the highest infection rate was in the age group of 30-39 years, while no infection was recorded in the age group of 50-59 years.
Highlights:

Hepatitis C impacts liver health and alters blood parameters.
Significant RBC change noted; highest infection in 30–39 age group.
No infections in the 50–59 age group recorded.

Effect of Methyl Jasmonate Spraying on Growth and Yield of Vicia faba L. Plant
Authors: AL-Jubouri Walaa Mahmood Shakir
Published: January 2025

This agricultural experiment was conducted in the Department of Life Sciences' plant house at the University of Diyala's College of Education for Pure Sciences. In order to investigate the effects of spraying methyl jasmonate at five different concentrations—0, 25, 50, 75, 100 mg. Plastic pots that could hold 7 kg of mixed soil were used in this experiment to produce bean plants. Three replications and a completely randomized design were used in the experiment's design. At a 0.05 level of probability, the means were compared. Two seeds were put in each pot after the soil had been prepared and cleaned of impurities. The germination rate was 100% at the beginning of the experiment, but seven days later it dropped to one plant. Two sprays of varying concentrations of jasmonate were applied to the plants; the first was one month after germination, and the second was one month following the first. Since the concentration of methyl jasmonate exceeded 25 mg L-1 in every characteristic examined, the results demonstrated that there were distinct variations between the various quantities of the molecule. Plant height, stem diameter, number of leaves, number of branches, number of pods, weight of pods, and number of seeds in pods are some of these attributes. 60.40 cm, 7.73 cm, 27.33 sheets were attained. Branch 3.02 of Plant 1. 2.33 pods per plant. Plant-1, 6.33 seeds, 11.01 g. Pod-1, in turn. On the other hand, 75 mg was the stated concentration. In comparison to the control treatment, L-1 exhibits lower averages for the majority of the attributes.
Highlights:

Experiment tested methyl jasmonate effects on Spanish bean plants' growth.
Five concentrations: 0, 25, 50, 75, 100 mg L⁻¹ evaluated.
Results showed optimal growth at 25 mg L⁻¹, decline at 75 mg.
