Authors: Santos Marcela Silva , Novais Jaílson Santos de
Published: September 2024

A literatura aponta que locais públicos com vegetação, como praças e parques, facilitam o contato das crianças com a natureza. Tal contato estimula o desenvolvimento físico, intelectual e emocional, o que permite uma ligação afetiva com a natureza. Este estudo mapeou o comportamento de 20 crianças, entre 8 e 11 anos, em contato com a natureza na Cidade Histórica de Porto Seguro, Bahia, a fim de descrever os comportamentos, bem como caracterizar a dimensão experiencial observada da conexão dessas crianças com a natureza. A coleta de dados incluiu o mapeamento comportamental centrado no lugar e na pessoa, além de observação naturalista. Os resultados revelam um maior contato com a natureza por meio de brincadeiras cotidianas. Em relação à configuração espacial, as crianças demonstraram predileção pelas áreas com mais vegetação. Além disso, houve alguns comportamentos indicativos de outras dimensões da conexão com a natureza (cognitiva e afetiva), o que sugere que a Cidade Histórica favorece tal conexão. Portanto, espaços similares devem ser priorizados em planejamentos urbanos para promover a conexão infantil com a natureza e, em consequência, comportamentos pró-ambientais duradouro.

Authors: Cameron Tajma , A. Escalante Karena , J. Haslip Michael
Published: September 2024

Objective: This study aimed to provide a program evaluation of a longstanding Licensed Practical Nursing (LPN) program within an urban U.S. context. This study aimed to identify strengths and weaknesses in the current LPN program, gather participant feedback, and make recommendations for future improvements emphasizing culturally and contextually appropriate programming in the health sector. In this manuscript, researchers detail a final evaluation report of an external evaluation of an established LPN program. This study was guided by three key evaluation questions, an examination of multiple documents, including grant proposals, student evaluation survey data, attendance records, and interviews with student alumni and administrative staff. Methods: Using purposeful sampling, semi-structured interviews were collected to understand the experiences of participants and staff. Next, document analysis was utilized to examine the discourse and portrayal of the program. We provide a qualitative overview, and recommendations based on the experiences of students and staff involved in the LPN program. Four types of documents were examined in this Institutional Review Board (IRB) -approved study, including one grant proposal, 67 student evaluation surveys (n=67), two years of attendance records, two semi-structured interviews with student alumni, and three administrative staff to identify the goals of the evaluation and develop key evaluation questions to be answered by the data collection and analysis about the nursing program. Results: Findings yield an emphasis on supporting the social conditions of students and staff. Researchers suggest using a participatory framework which entails working closely with key stakeholders to advance social outcomes that might be appropriate for the altruistic norms embedded in the larger healthcare and social work arena. Conclusion: Findings highlight effective measures to refine and maintain a high-quality student-centered nursing program for working adults through contextually and culturally appropriate programming.

As corridas de revezamento são provas de velocidade, no qual cada equipe conta com quatro atletas que têm como objetivo levar um bastão nas mãos em todo seu percurso em menor tempo. Logo, baseado na força de reação do solo e sua biomecânica, essa modalidade vem apresentando grandes índices de lesões em membros inferiores. Assim, é imprescindível compreender que a prática da atividade esportiva expõe o indivíduo, seja ele um atleta de elite ou um amador, às lesões físicas. Dessa forma, com base no corpo de literatura sobre a análise do perfil antropométrico e funcional de pacientes atletas amadores, foi possível a realização de uma revisão integrativa de literatura por meio de diversas plataformas, como PubMed, Bireme, Lilacs, Scielo, Medline, PeDro e Google Acadêmico, com seleção e análise criteriosa dos artigos, a fim de captar e revisar as evidências atuais sobre os dados do perfil antropométrico e funcional de pacientes atletas amadores. Nesta revisão foi identificado que os atletas dos estudos apresentaram um maior índice de lesões em membros inferiores, conforme a literatura. Assimetrias superiores a 10% no Single Hop Test, aumentam o risco de novas lesões em membros inferiores. Apesar da maioria dos atletas possuírem histórico de lesões, apenas 25% possuíram escore com tal risco. Todavia, mais estudos randomizados devem ser feitos para comprovar maior eficácia de entendimento do Hop Test bem como sua aplicação e para captação de IMR.

Authors: Zhu Guanpeng
Published: September 2024

In recent years, the concept of ESG has aroused the attention of all walks of life. Coupled with the tendency of policy in the field of carbon peak and carbon neutrality, ESG disclosure of enterprises has a significant impact on enterprise development. In this paper, the Wind ESG rating index is used, and five automobile companies, BYD, Geely Automobile, Dongfeng Automobile, Changan Automobile and SAIC Motor, are selected as representatives. The impact of ESG performance on enterprise value is tested by case analysis and Wind ESG disclosure rating. It is found that good corporate ESG performance can improve corporate strength and value from environmental protection, corporate social governance and other aspects. The analysis shows that better ESG performance can affect the market value by adjusting accounting profit to reduce carbon emissions and so on, thereby improving the enterprise value. Further analysis shows that the index disclosed in the evaluation of ESG indicators of enterprises can also have a reverse effect on enterprises, and thus significantly improve the long-term ESG performance of enterprises. The results of this study are helpful for investors to better understand the development prospects of enterprises. At the same time, they are helpful for enterprises to promote ESG practice and disclosure, further promote the development of enterprises, improve performance and market competitiveness, and promote enterprises to embark on the path of sustainable development.

Study on Financing Constraints of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises Eased by Financial Technology
Authors: Huang Zeyang , Ouyang Weichen
Published: September 2024

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are increasingly important for economic growth, employment opportunities, and innovation. However, the traditional financial system has failed to meet its diverse financing needs, especially in terms of information asymmetry and risk assessment. There is a lack of systematic theoretical analyses and empirical tests on how FinTech affects the financing constraints of SMEs. This paper explores in detail the role of information asymmetry, leverage, and financial sector concentration in the financing process of SMEs through an in-depth study of the mechanism of FinTech's impact on SMEs' financing constraints. The results of the study show that the development of FinTech has a significant effect on alleviating the financing constraints of SMEs. In addition, this study finds that FinTech is particularly effective in alleviating the financing constraints of SMEs in the eastern region. However, in the Western region, the financing difficulties faced by SMEs are still severe. Therefore, the state should vigorously promote the development of fintech, especially in the less developed regions in the West, with a view to reducing the imbalance between the East and West in terms of economic development, and thus promoting balanced development nationwide.

Authors: Guo Yuchen
Published: September 2024

This study provides an in-depth look at the intricate interplay between climate risk and its repercussions on the stock market, analyzing in detail the differences across markets and time intervals. The study reveals a notable correlation between climate risk and the stock market and that there are some variations in this relationship. Specifically, the U.S. market is more sensitive to climate risk, while the European market is relatively less so. In addition, the COVID-19 has a short-term impact. This study summarizes and generalizes the literature of the last three years and employs a variety of descriptive methods in order to reveal the intrinsic link between the two. The findings provide a crucial reference for investors and policy makers to gain a more nuanced comprehension of the ramifications of climate risk on equity markets. Subsequent investigations could go deeper into the relationship between climate risk on other financial markets (e.g., bond markets) and the differences in response to climate risk across different climate sectors.

DASYCLADALES (GREEN ALGAE) AND SOME BENTHIC FORAMINIFERA FROM THE UPPER CRETACEOUS ILAM FORMATION (LATE CONIACIAN–SATONIAN), SW IRAN (ONSHORE AND OFFSHORE)
Authors: SCHLAGINTWEIT FELIX , OMIDVAR MAHBOOBEH , SAFARI AMROLLAH , YAZDI-MOGHADAM MOHSEN , RASHIDI KOOROSH
Published: September 2024

New data (onshore, offshore) on the Upper Cretaceous Ilam Formation of southwestern Iran are provided concerning the common presence of dasycladalean green algae (families Triploporellaceae, Polyphysaceae) that have so far been treated mostly in open nomenclature. The assemblage consists of the five taxa Salpingoporella ubaiydhi Radoičić, 1979, Dissocladella ondulata (Raineri, 1922), Trinocladus tripolitanus Raineri, 1922, Clypeina cf. dusanbrstinai Radoičić, 1997, and gen. et sp. indet. The taxa typically prevail in wackestones-packstones but exhibit different distributional patterns. While S. ubaiydhi and T. tripolitanus, rarely associated with D. ondulata, form a characteristic assemblage in a distal infralittoral facies (more diverse assemblage; zone no. 31 of Wynd, 1965), C. cf. dusanbrstinai occurs in a proximal infralittoral facies associated with miliolids among also complex forms (rhapydioninids) (assemblage zone no. 30 of Wynd, 1965). It is concluded that the two assemblage zones refer to different palaeoenvironments, instead of different ages (‘lower’ and ‘upper’). Based on benthic foraminifera, the main part of the Ilam Formation can be ascribed to the Santonian. For the lower part, a late Coniacian age is suggested implied indirectly by the comparably long vertical range of the rotaliid Orbitokathina vonderschmitti Hottinger, 1966 of the studied core. This would be in conformity with the K 150 Arabian Plate K 150 sequence boundary referring to a late Turonian?–early Coniacian hiatus. From a palaeobiogeographic perspective, T. tripolitanus is a cosmopolitan species, S. ubaiydhi is restricted to the area of the former Arabian Plate (subsurface Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Egypt), while C. dusanbrstinai has been recorded only from Serbia (type-locality). In addition to the algae, the stratigraphic discussion includes the occurrence of the benthic foraminifera Reticulinella? kaeveri Cherchi, Radoičić & Schroeder, 1989 and Orbitoides mid-orientalis (Eames & Smout, 1956) in the Ilam Formation.

Biosynthesized nanoparticles are a viable and sustainable approach for treating wastewater. They provide an environmentally acceptable alternative to traditional chemical synthesis processes. This review examines explicitly the production, use, and environmental consequences of nanoparticles created by biological methods, such as plant-mediated and microbial synthesis. The main aim of the review is to conduct a thorough assessment of the existing research on biosynthesized nanoparticles, focusing on identifying significant patterns, progress, and areas of knowledge lacking in the literature. The review consolidates results from current investigations, emphasizing the efficacy of these nanoparticles in eliminating organic pollutants, heavy metals, and other impurities from wastewater. The study also investigates the better characteristics of biosynthesized nanoparticles, including their reduced size, increased stability, and improved photoluminescence. These traits enhance their effectiveness in environmental cleanup. Nevertheless, the study highlights notable deficiencies in the existing body of research regarding the enduring ecological consequences and feasibility of implementing these environmentally friendly synthesis techniques on a large scale in industrial settings. The analysis continues by highlighting the necessity of consistent synthesis techniques and advocating for additional research on biosynthesized nanoparticles' scalability and long-term impacts. These findings emphasize the capability of biosynthesized nanoparticles to improve wastewater treatment technologies and support sustainable environmental management. They also emphasize the significance of ongoing multidisciplinary research in this rapidly developing field.

Methods: A cross sectional retrospective study was conducted at Radiology department of Shahida Islam Medical Complex, Lodhran from May 2023 to April 2024. A sample size of 242 females was calculated. Electronic medical records were reviewed for radiological examination including screening ultrasound and mammography. All those pregnant and lactating females on which ultrasound and mammograms were performed were included. SPSS version 23.0 was used for data analysis.  Diagnostic accuracy of both ultrasound and mammography were calculated in terms of malignant or benign and sensitivity and specificity. Mann-Whitney U test was applied between mammography, ultrasonography and BI-RADS categories. Results: Of 242 females, 110 underwent mammography and 132 underwent ultrasound. Negative mammography was observed in 71 females in which at biopsy, 24 were benign. Negative ultrasound with only benign lesion was seen in 68 females and 10 of which were confirmed at biopsy. Specificity of ultrasonography was 100 %, sensitivity 85.7 %, positive predictive value of 100 % while negative predictive value of 25 %. Specificity of mammography was 100 %, sensitivity 92.3 %, positive predictive value of 100 % while negative predictive value of 42.8 % (p<0.001). Conclusions: Although both ultrasound and mammography were found to be specific, use of mammography was considered better in terms of sensitivity and diagnostic accuracy.

Periodontal disease, a prevalent oral health condition, is characterized by the inflammation and destruction of the supporting tissues around the teeth and poses significant challenges to global public health. Objectives: To examine the association between the oral microbiome and periodontal disease progression in a Pakistani population. Methods: A total of 350 patients aged ≥ 18 years, diagnosed with periodontal disease, were registered from August 2023 to February 2024. Participants were evaluated for periodontal health indicators, including probing depth and clinical attachment loss, and their oral microbiome profiles were analyzed using high-throughput sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene. Machine learning algorithms, including Random Forest and Support Vector Machines, were applied to predict disease progression based on microbial profiles. Results: Porphyromonas gingivalis and Tannerella forsythia were strongly associated with greater probing depths and clinical attachment loss (β = 0.45, p < 0.01), indicating their role in disease progression. Conversely, Streptococcus and Lactobacillus were linked to reduced disease severity (β = -0.30, p < 0.05). The oral microbiome exhibited high diversity, with Firmicutes (35%), Bacteroidetes (25%), Proteobacteria (20%), and Actinobacteria (15%) being the predominant species. The Random Forest model predicted disease progression with 85% accuracy (Area under the curve (AUC) = 0.87), emphasizing the predictive value of microbial profiles. Conclusions: It was concluded that the study confirms a strong link between specific oral microbiota and periodontal disease progression, emphasizing the importance of microbial analysis in predicting and managing periodontal health.

This service aims to analyse the role of Karang Taruna in supporting village development, particularly in the context of community empowerment and welfare improvement. The case study was conducted in Tumbuan Village with a focus on the synergy between Karang Taruna, the community, and the village government. Through various activities, such as leadership training, community-based economic development, and environmental conservation, Karang Taruna has successfully increased the leadership capacity of its members, increased community income, and improved environmental awareness. However, this Service also identified several challenges faced, such as limited resources and differences in views between generations. The results of this service show that synergy between Karang Taruna and the community is key in achieving sustainable village development. This success can be a model for other villages that want to develop their local potential
Basic Education Curriculum under the Newly Implemented K to 10 (MATATAG) Curriculum in the Philippines: The Case of Science Education
Authors: Diquito Tomas Jr
Published: September 2024

Curriculum reform is essential to address the current needs of the community, nation, and global demands. By doing this, community members are equipped with relevant skills and competencies that are timely and relevant in modern times. Thus, this study was conducted to determine the nature of the newly implemented K to 10 or MATATAG curriculum under basic education-science in the Philippines. Discussion of the topic revolves around understanding the reasons for curriculum reform and determining the new features and competencies of the new basic education-science curriculum. Moreover, document analysis was carried out to address the objectives of the study. Results revealed that there are four main reasons why curriculum reform is needed in basic education in the country. Reasons include poor performance of learners in national and international assessments, congested curriculum, insufficient time to teach, and mismatch of prerequisite skills and knowledge assumed by the learning competencies. In terms of new features of the basic education science curriculum, the addition of technology and engineering literacy is highlighted, along with an addition of theoretical foundations and approaches to teaching. The analysis further revealed that the highlighted competencies are aligned with the relevant skills and competencies needed in the 21st century, Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0. Thus, it can be concluded that the newly implemented basic education science curriculum is responsive to global demand, thus making the country more resilient and adaptive to change.
Design and Development of a Tractor-Drawn Cultivator with a Pulverizing Attachment

Soil tillage is one of the most critical processes in the agricultural production system, requiring the greatest energy and time of any operation. A cultivator with pulverizing attachment was designed and developed to reduce secondary tillage operations to a single pass to ensure timeliness in seedbed preparation. It consists of a pulverizing roller as an active unit and cultivator tynes as a passive unit. The implement has the following major components; a frame, cultivator tines, and a pulverizing roller consisting of central and peripheral shafts on which discs are arranged. The cultivator tynes were fitted on the main frame while the pulverizing roller was attached at the rear end of the frame with the help of bearings. The pulverizing blades were welded on discs in such a way as to crush the soil by impact force. In this way, the force exerted by the pulverizer on the clod is distributed uniformly in the shaft which is used to hold the pulverizing roller. The pulverizer was designed to break big clods formed during tillage operation and the implement was attached to the tractor by three point hitch. In operation, the cultivator tynes open the furrow, and the roller cuts and pulverizes the soil at optimum conditions for tillage. With a production cost of ETB 17,587.19, the implement is within the economic reach of an average smallholder farmer in Ethiopia.
Boreal pollinators in a changing climate : the effects of forest composition, structure, and microclimate
Authors: Diaz Calafat Joan
Published: September 2024

The boreal biome, the world's largest contiguous forested region, is undergoing significant changes due to rising global temperatures. This warming is impacting the interactions between trees, understory plants, and pollinators, which determine the species composition of understory plants and their pollinators, as well as essential ecosystem services such as berry production and pollination. However, our current knowledge is insufficient to predict how changes in climate and land use, the main drivers of global change, will affect this system. The objective of this thesis was to enhance our understanding of the interplay between forest structure, microclimate, and pollinators. My studies highlighted the limited understanding of climate change effects on boreal pollinators (I), emphasized the crucial roles of forest density and overstory species composition in regulating understory microclimates (II), which in turn impacted pollinator foraging behaviour (III) and their species diversity (IV). When assessing the effects of climate change on boreal plant-pollinator interactions, most studies use proxies to measure pollinators, omitting their taxonomic identities and limiting our ability to evaluate the resilience of specific interactions (I). Forests buffer extreme temperatures, providing refugia for species affected by warming, with higher forest density offering the best temperature regulation relative to macroclimate. Both broadleaf and conifer trees provided these benefits, though most broadleaf trees allow more light (II). Since most boreal pollinators are ectothermic insects, ambient temperature was the most important factor driving their foraging rates, while microclimate affected their foraging duration (III). However, the richness of flower-visiting arthropods was positively influenced by low forest density and broadleaf dominance, whereas microclimate may play a smaller role (IV). Collectively, these findings suggest that forest management could enhance pollinator habitats and resilience against climate change, but further research is needed to refine these strategies and understand species-specific responses.
From the rainforest to the concrete jungle

Published: September 2024

Túngara frogs are common in both natural and urban areas and are therefore
an interesting species to study how evolution is affected by urbanization. In this
dissertation I investigated the causes and consequences of differences in sexual
communication between urban and forest frogs. Light and noise pollution have
direct effects on the communication and hormone balance of frogs, and lead to
more conspicuous calling behavior. In the city there are fewer predators that prey
on calling frogs, so more conspicuous calling behavior in the city has a low risk and
can therefore be seen as an adaptation. In addition, I found heritable differences
between urban and forest frogs, meaning that these differences could evolve further
over several generations. Finally, I showed that light and noise pollution influence
interactions between rivals and mate choice and therefore impact fitness, but in
a different way for urban and forest frogs. Taken together, it appears that there is
potential for evolution of sexual communication in túngara frogs, which could help
this species further adapt to urban areas in the long term.
