Published: December 2024

This research aims to determine the influence of sensory marketing on customer satisfaction and the revisit intention of the food and beverage industries in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. The study was conducted using quantitative methods through purposive sampling and the data will be processed using SMART-PLS tools. The study results showed an influence between sensory marketing on revisit intention that mediated customer satisfaction. Sensory marketing variables, the senses of sight, taste, and touch, were the most influential, while olfactory factors were insignificant in the study. The customer satisfaction variable that has the most influence is meeting customer needs and customer expectations. The managerial implication based on this research is that managers in the food and beverage industry should pay attention to the appearance of their products, maintain the taste of their products, and pay attention to the selection of materials in the store to meet the customer needs and customer expectations.

DevSecOps Sentinel: GenAI-Driven Agentic Workflows for Comprehensive Supply Chain Security
Authors: Pillala Gyani , Azarpazhooh Damoon , Baxter Scott
Published: December 2024

A growing number of security challenges are born out of the complexity of modern software supply chains that span microservices, containerization, and cloud-native architectures. The increasing rate of new cyber-threats, and the need to quickly deploy software updates after a security incident, typically outpaces traditional DevSecOps security practices. In this paper, we propose a novel DevSecOps Sentinel system, which employs Generative AI (GenAI) driven agentic workflows to improve software supply chain security holistically.

In this paper, we elaborate on the architecture of DevSecOps Sentinel: by integrating cutting-edge GenAI models, and by deploying intelligent agentic workflows. Then we dive into how the system impacts our software development life cycle from code writing to production and beyond. Our results indicate that agentic workflows powered by GenAI are a viable method to tackle the intricate security issues of modern software supply chains. Integrating the analysis capability of AI and marrying this with the strengths that come from agentic systems, DevSecOps Sentinel reveals a way forward for organizations seeking to strengthen their security profile in an ever more hostile digital world - to build better software — faster, safer, and reliable.

De bestuurlijke sanctionering van examenfraude: herstel of bestraffing?

In het onderwijsrecht wordt het uitsluiten van de mogelijkheid om deel te nemen aan een volgend tentamen of examen door de ABRvS aangemerkt als een bestraffende sanctie in de zin van art. 5:2 lid 1 aanhef en onder c Awb. Een formeel-wettelijke grondslag voor het aanmerken van de uitsluiting als een bestraffende sanctie lijkt echter te ontbreken. Artikel 7.12b lid 2 WHW biedt daarvoor onvoldoende grondslag.
Transiciones juveniles, precariedad y bienestar: un análisis de las formas y efectos de la precariedad en el bienestar emocional de las personas jóvenes
Authors: Bolíbar Mireia , Padrosa Eva
Published: December 2024

Este artículo aborda los factores laborales, sociales y económicos de la salud mental juvenil. Concretamente, analiza el efecto de la precariedad laboral sobre el bienestar emocional de las personas jóvenes. Mediante un Análisis de Correspondencias y de Clúster, creamos una tipología de configuraciones socioeconómicas juveniles que identifica cómo la precariedad laboral interacciona con otros determinantes sociales de la salud mental como la inseguridad económica y los procesos de emancipación y transición familiar, configurando realidades que, en su conjunto, protegen o dificultan el bienestar emocional de las personas jóvenes. Los resultados muestran que las situaciones laborales adversas (tanto condiciones de empleo desfavorables como desempleo y exclusión del mercado de trabajo) se asocian con un peor malestar emocional entre los jóvenes, sobre todo cuando la precariedad se cronifica en la trayectoria laboral y si la posición de clase y la estrategia familiar-residencial no evitan que vaya de la mano de inseguridad económica. El artículo concluye remarcando la necesidad de intervenir en el plano estructural de los derechos y seguridades sociales para mejorar la salud mental juvenil.

Published: December 2024

The negative impact of invasive alien species on biodiversity, agriculture, ecosystem services, and human well-being is a significant concern for scientists. Despite extensive research in the past decade to understand their effects on native communities and ecosystems, predicting and managing future invasions remains challenging. Humulus scandens, a species native to Asia, was introduced to Europe in 1880 for ornamental purposes. This vigorous climbing vine thrives in wetlands, riparian habitats (especially river and stream sides), and ruderal habitats (roadsides, wastelands, abandoned, and disturbed areas). Our research aimed to investigate the vegetative body structure of H. scandens to understand its high resilience in Romanian habitats. The structural characterization of the vegetative organs involved detailed microscopic examination of the coloured cross-sections. The results revealed a well-developed secondary structure of the root and stem, granting robustness and resistance to the plant, favouring it in competition with other species for environmental resources.

Genel Teori’deki Para Arzı Yaklaşımına İlişkin Uyumcu ve Yapısalcı Post-Keynesyen Yorumlar
Authors: Karahan Özcan
Published: December 2024

İktisat literatüründe son dönemde Keynes’in 1936 yılında yayımlanan “İstihdam, Para ve Faizin Genel Teorisi” (Genel Teori) başlıklı eseri üzerinde önemli bir tartışma yürütülmektedir. Genel Teori başlıklı eserinde Keynes para arzının oluşum sürecini ikinci plana atarak daha çok paranın ekonomi üzerinde yarattığı etkiler üzerinde durduğunu belirtmiştir. Ancak, günümüzde, Uyumcu ve Yapısalcı Post-Keynesyen iktisatçılar Genel Teori ‘de Keynes’in para arzının oluşum sürecini ele alış biçimine ilişkin olarak önemli bir tartışma yürütmektedir. Uyumcu Post Keynesyenler, Keynes’in Genel Teori’ de ileri sürdüğü görüşlerin dışsal para arzı varsayımına dayandığını ileri sürmektedir. Öte yandan, Yapısalcı Post Keynesyenler, Genel Teori ‘de para yaratma süreci ile ilgili yapılan değerlendirmelerin içsel para arzı varsayımına uygun olduğunu iddia etmektedir. Böylece, Post-Keynesyen okulun iki önemli temsilcisinden Uyumcu Yaklaşım Genel Teori’ deki görüşlerin dışsal para arazına dayalı olarak üretildiğini belirtirken Yapısalcı Yaklaşım ise Genel Teori’ deki görüşleri içsel para arzı yaklaşımı ile uyumlu bulmaktadır. Literatürde sürdürülen bu ilginç tartışma çalışma kapsamında ele alınarak ayrıntılı şekilde analiz edilmiştir. Bu çerçevede Genel Teori ‘de para arzının ele alınış biçimine ilişkin Uyumcu ve Yapısalcı Post-Keynesyen iktisatçıların ileri sürdüğü tezler ayrı ayrı ele alınmıştır. Öncelikle Keynes’in Genel Teoride ileri sürdüğü görüşler ayrıntısı ile ortaya konulmuştur. Daha sonra Genel Teori’ de Keynes’in dışsal para arzı varsayımına dayandığını iddia eden Uyumcu Post Keynesyen iktisatçıların tezlerine yer verilmiştir. Son olarak da Genel Teori’ de Keynes’in ileri sürdüğü fikirlerin içsel para arzı ile uyumlu olduğunu ileri süren Yapısalcı Post Keynesyen iktisatçıların görüşleri ele alınmıştır. Sonuç olarak bu ilginç tartışma çerçevesinde sunulan karşılıklı görüşler günümüz para piyasasında ortaya çıkan karmaşık ekonomik ilişkileri anlamlandırmamıza yardımcı olacak çok önemli fırsatlar sunmuştur.

DEEP TRANSFORMATION OF IDENTIFICATION
AND VALUE MATRIXES OF RUSSIAN SOCIETY: SOME THOUGHTS AFTER THE ROUNDTABLE
Authors: Shestopal Elena Borisovna
Published: December 2024

The article is based on the analysis of the discussion that have taken place at the Department of Politics of Lomonosov Moscow State University on May 25, 2023. Participants represented different academic fields: political science, history, sociology, psychology, communication studies. The discussion was going around a question whether one can see serious transformations not only in the current political moods but also in deeper layers of public mind, especially in values, identity, mentality that constitute the basis of national self-consciousness. In Political psychology these phenomena are interpreted as particular mental matrixes that can be described as stable clusters of citizens’ images and representations of themselves, their country and the world in general, their Present, Past and Future.

Today we are visually transforming as a nation. These swings concern first of all the deeper layers of public mind that take place at the background of tectonic changes in political, cultural, economic, technological and communication spheres of public life. These swings give rise to serious social risks and challenges as well as to new opportunities of political development of the country.

There were several main points of discussion. The first concerned the issue of methodological equipment of socio-humanitarian knowledge for interpretation of those transformations. The second issue of discussion was focused on the changes on Russian national identity and interpretation of the factors that determine transformation of values and identity.
Sperm preparation techniques in assisted reproductivetechnology
Authors: Janke Patryk
Published: December 2024

Based on data from the World Health Organization, millions of couples around the world struggle with theproblem of infertility. Significantly reduced semen parameters are responsible for approximately 50% offailures to get pregnant. Semen preparation techniques for assisted reproduction procedures are intended toprepare a sample containing sperm with the greatest potential to fertilize an oocyte. Normal morphology, lowpercentage of DNA fragmentation (fDNA), fast and progressive sperm cell movement, low content of reactiveoxygen species (ROS) constitute the basis for the selection of reproductive cells in assisted reproductionlaboratories. The purpose of this study was to discuss and compare semen preparation techniques usedin assisted reproduction laboratories in terms of their effectiveness and application according to currentscientific reports. The selection of appropriate semen preparation should be based on a thorough diagnosisof male fertility with an in-depth analysis of semen analysis. According to the recommendations of scientificsocieties, supported by the analysis of huge databases in the field of embryology, techniques such as spermwashing, swim-up or density gradient centrifugation are recommended for use in routine clinical work.Additional procedures: magnetically activated cell sorting (MACS), IMSI (intracytoplasmic morphologicallyselected sperm injection), physiological ICSI (PICSI) are not recommended for common use. Onlymicrofluidic sperm selection (MSS) techniques should be considered for routine work after considering theappropriateness of its use. However, in the area of additional procedures, there is no clear and statisticallysignificant evidence regarding safety and increased effectiveness compared to standard, commonly usedsemen preparation techniques.
A formação de professor na perspectiva da educação inclusiva: uma revisão sistemática
Authors: Aparecida Cerqueira Rodrigues Michele
Published: December 2024

A formação continuada de professores é necessária diante das complexidades e evolução das metodologias educacionais. Neste sentido, o coordenador pedagógico desempenha um papel crucial na estruturação dessas formações, considerando o perfil do público-alvo e a comunidade escolar. É importante promover a troca de experiências e incentivar a reflexão sobre práticas pedagógicas. Deseja-se formar professores investigativos e reflexivos, construindo saberes substanciais. A falta de contato com a educação inclusiva na formação inicial é um desafio, exigindo mais pesquisas para embasar as capacitações de docentes. Este trabalho tem como objetivo identificar as principais metodologias utilizadas na formação continuada de professores, analisando estratégias individuais e coletivas, visando a educação inclusiva. Por meio de Revisão Sistemática, foram analisados artigos entre os anos de 2012 à 2022, nos idiomas português, inglês e espanhol, contidos nas bases de dados Redalyc e Google Acadêmico. Dentre os 2.813 artigos encontrados inicialmente, foram analisados 14 que atendiam as condições de elegibilidade pré-estabelecidos. Cerca de 46% dos dados analisados mostram uma tendência a formações continuadas, críticas e coletivas, com foco no desenvolvimento de professores reflexivos nas quais prevalecem a metodologia subjetiva-interpretativa que privilegia a relação entre as facetas do trabalho pedagógico, a constituição dos saberes e a interferência no exercício da prática. Sob estas reflexões, as formações continuadas devem adotar uma perspectiva crítico-reflexiva, promovendo a interação entre os professores, compartilhamento de experiências e solução colaborativa de problemas. O ideal é impulsionar a pesquisa educacional e transforma o papel do professor, resultando em um trabalho docente mais significativo e eficaz.
HANSENÍASE E NEUROINFLAMAÇÃO: MECANISMOS, IMPLICAÇÕES CLÍNICAS E INTERVENÇÕES DA ENFERMAGEM
Authors: Oliveira Maria Eliane Ramos de , Alves Ana Paula da Penha
Published: December 2024

A hanseníase é uma doença crônica causada pelo Mycobacterium leprae, que afeta principalmente a pele e os nervos periféricos, podendo levar a complicações neurológicas graves. A neuroinflamação, um processo inflamatório crônico desencadeado pela interação da bactéria com as células de Schwann, desempenha um papel central na patogênese da doença. Essa interação provoca desmielinização, ativação imunológica e a liberação de citocinas pró-inflamatórias, que contribuem para a degeneração neuronal e para a perda progressiva das funções sensorial e motora. O impacto da neuroinflamação varia conforme o perfil imunológico do hospedeiro. Na forma tuberculoide da hanseníase, a resposta Th1 ativa granulomas e controla parcialmente a infecção, resultando em baixa carga bacilar. Já na forma lepromatosa, a resposta Th2 permite maior disseminação bacteriana, devido à inibição de respostas imunológicas mais efetivas, levando a lesões mais extensas e maior carga bacilar. Ambas as formas podem evoluir para neuropatias irreversíveis, caso o tratamento não seja iniciado precocemente. O diagnóstico precoce é essencial para prevenir danos permanentes. Ferramentas como eletroneuromiografia e testes de monofilamento são eficazes na identificação de neuropatias periféricas em estágios iniciais. Além disso, biomarcadores moleculares emergem como promessas para prever reações inflamatórias antes do aparecimento de sintomas clínicos. No manejo da hanseníase, intervenções terapêuticas recentes mostram potencial no controle da neuroinflamação. Substâncias como o ácido valpróico e a quercetina oferecem propriedades neuroprotetoras, enquanto tecnologias de reabilitação, como nanopartículas e dispositivos de assistência, estão ampliando as opções de tratamento. O cuidado humanizado, incluindo o suporte psicológico e a educação para o autocuidado, desempenha um papel crucial na redução do estigma e na melhora da qualidade de vida dos pacientes. A integração entre diagnóstico precoce, avanços terapêuticos e intervenções centradas no paciente é fundamental para mitigar os impactos neurológicos da hanseníase e promover uma reabilitação eficaz.

Published: December 2024

OBJETIVO: Descrever a importância do enfermeiro dentre o período pré e pós operatório em centro cirúrgico tomando todas as medidas cabíveis nesses procedimentos cirúrgicos. METODOLOGIA: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura, com buscas nas bases PubMed, Scielo e BDEnf. Utilizando três DeCS, cruzados com operador booleano “AND”: “Segurança do pacieente” AND “Cirurgia Segura” AND “Procedimentos cirúrgicos”. Que são fontes seguras em suas pesquisas. RESULTADOS: A realização de procedimentos cirúrgicos de forma segura é imprescindível, uma vez que a segurança do paciente é uma prioridade essencial na prática. As implicações de uma cirurgia eficaz transcendem o ato em si, influenciando diretamente os desdobramentos pós-operatórios e a qualidade de vida dos indivíduos. CONCLUSÃO: A segurança cirúrgica deve ser encarada como a pedra angular da formação dos profissionais de saúde, refletindo um compromisso ético e técnico que vai muito além da sala de cirurgia. Encarar a negligência nessa área como uma mera falha individual é um equívoco.

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) prevails in India, with a notable increase in incidence in Karnataka state. This infectious malady affects various animals characterized by cloven hooves, including cattle breeds crucial to the rural economy of Karnataka, such as Malnad Gidda and Hallikar. The infection of these breeds with the foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) leads to substantial financial losses for the local population. While previous studies have explored these breeds in combination with foreign counterparts, this research emphasizes a separate examination of Malnad Gidda and Hallikar. This study utilized RNA-Seq data and gene expression analysis, and unveiled a total of 588 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in FMD-infected Malnad Gidda and Hallikar breeds. Among these, 348 genes were overexpressed, while 240 were under-expressed. The DEGs underwent extensive biological, functional enrichment, and pathway analyses using the DAVID tool. The most enriched terms included ‘Defense response to the virus’ (GO:0051607), ‘Identical protein binding’ (GO:0042802), and ‘Pathways of neurodegeneration - multiple diseases.’ In a network-based analysis, ATP5PO, GAPDH, ISG15, MX2, and PSMD14 were identified as the top hub genes among the significant genes. The study uncovered noteworthy findings indicating that the antiviral capabilities of ISG15 and MX2 have been demonstrated in their role against FMDV in both pigs and mice. By delving into the examination of the anti-viral properties of ATP5PO, GAPDH, and PSMD14, the research establishes a foundational platform for future investigations into FMD, offering potential avenues for interventions in the ongoing quest for effective counter measures against the infirmity in Malnad Gidda and Hallikar Breeds.

Rabies is a devastating zoonotic disease affecting all warm-blooded animals and humans. Although dogs are commonly recognized as primary transmitters of rabies in India, ruminants also significantly contribute as hosts within livestock populations. This study aimed to highlight the critical issues surrounding bovine rabies and propose practical strategies for documenting and managing it in resource-limited settings. A 40-day-old female Kangeyam calf presented with symptoms including aggressive behaviour, refusal to eat or drink and frequent bellowing. Clinical examination revealed hypersalivation, erected ears, extended neck, heightened alertness, hyperesthesia to sound, diarrhoea and straining. No external wounds were observed and there were no recent reports of dog bites. However, an epidemiological investigation indicated a semi-intensive rearing system and noted a previous history of dog bites on the farm. Based on history, clinical observation and epidemiological investigation, rabies was suspected. Saliva samples were collected from the suspected calf and its dam and subjected to real-time RT-PCR based on SYBR Green chemistry, confirming the presence of viral RNA in the calf and its absence in the cow. This farm investigation underscores the importance of timely bovine rabies diagnosis for safeguarding veterinarians and animal owners. It underscores the vital role of clinical diagnosis in resource-limited settings, where advanced diagnostic tools are often lacking, emphasizing the need for timely identification of rabies cases through clinical observations.

The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of addition of Tris soy lecithin (TSL) and Tris egg yolk- based (TEY) extenders on canine seminal attributes during 7 days storage at 5°C. Semen was manually collected from fifteen apparently healthy male dogs, which then underwent semen evaluation. Only semen sample with spermatozoa motility >80% and spermatozoa concentration >200×106 spermatozoa/mL were used in the present study. After initial evaluation, sperm-rich fractions were divided into two equal parts and extended with 20% TEY and 1% TSL extenders at 1:4 dilution, then stored at a refrigeration temperature of 5°C for 7 days. Chilled semen samples were assessed for pH, motility, viability, abnormality, and plasma membrane integrity for a week on daily basis. DNA integrity was assessed on days 0, 1, 3, and 5 of storage. Significant differences were observed in all seminal attributes except DNA integrity between fresh and extended semen. The pH of the semen did not differ significantly between the extenders up to day 6, indicating almost equal buffering capacity of the extenders. A significant difference in sperm motility, viability, morphological abnormality, and plasma membrane integrity was observed between the extenders from storage days 4, 3, 1, and 5, respectively. No significant difference in sperm DNA integrity was observed between the extenders. In conclusion, while both extenders were equally effective in preserving sperm DNA integrity, Tris egg yolk extender outperformed Tris soy lecithin extender in all other seminal attributes assessed in this study.

Clinical examination revealed pyrexia (39.4℃) and congested conjunctival mucous membrane. Gynaecological examination revealed oedematous vulva with serosanguinous vaginal discharge. Ultrasonography examination revealed the presence of corpus luteum, medium-sized follicles, thickened uterine endometrium and fluid accumulation at the tip of both uterine horns. Serum progesterone and cortisol levels were 5.35±0.28 ng/mL and 6.14±0.13 ng/mL, respectively. Microbiological examination of foetal fluids revealed gram-negative bacilli which was confirmed as Salmonella spp. Histopathology of aborted foetal parts revealed cellular degenerative changes. All jennies were treated with antibiotics, and antihistamines along with intrauterine douching for five consecutive days. Other pregnant jennies in the farm were isolated and prophylactic antibiotics and immune booster supplements were administered. Thus, this study documented unconventional infectious agent such as Salmonellosis emerging as a leading cause of abortion storm and reproductive loss in donkey farming in Tamil Nadu.

Türkiye eğimli topografyası, farklı iklim ve jeolojik oluşumları ile doğal erozyona karşı hassastır. Bu süreçler doğal olmakla birlikte, insan faaliyetleriyle daha da kötüleşmekte ve önemli çevresel zorluklara yol açabilmektedir. Yıldız Irmağı havzası Kızılırmak’ın bir koludur. Kızılırmak, taşıdığı sediment yüzünden renginin kızıl olması nedeniyle Kızılırmak ismini almıştır. Dolayısıyla erozyon bölge için önemli bir sorundur. Çalışmada erozyondan önemli ölçüde etkilenen Yıldız Irmağı havzasının eğim dikliği ve eğim uzunluğu etkisi belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Sayısal yükseklik modeli (SYM) temel veri olarak kullanılmıştır. SYM verisinden sırasıyla eğim, akış yönü ve akış birikimi katmaları oluşturulmuştur. Elde edilen katmanlar kullanılarak eğim dikliği ve uzunluğu (LS) hesaplanmıştır. Yıldız Irmağı Havzasında LS değeri 0-2 arasında olan alanlar havzanın %48.6; 2-6; %25.5; 6 -12 %18,2; 12-18 %5.2; 18-24 %1.8; 24-63.1 %0.7’sini kaplamaktadır. LS değeri düşük yerlerin oranı havzanın büyük bölümünü oluşturmaktadır.

This article is a research on the dissemination of the concept of "Complete Streets", more specifically in the context of the built environment, also aiming to contribute to a higher quality of life for the inhabitants in the urban environment. The concept of "Complete Streets" is an urban design proposal that emphasizes the creation of roads that are safe, comfortable, and convenient for all users, regardless of constraints and mobility or capacity. This concept brings a series of benefits such as inclusivity, safety, sustainability and encouragement of physical activity, providing resilience in economic vitality. The article aims to analyze the main challenges in the implementation of "Complete Streets", using the comparison between cities that have already had this implementation and the Brazilian reality, verifying what are the political and technical barriers to respecting the importance of green infrastructure in urban mobility. The methodologies used were field research in surveys of the municipality of Rio de Janeiro. This theme, in light of the criticisms and suggestions generated, will certainly continue to provide important discussions as more cities would seek ways to become healthier and more inclusive, requiring contributions on how the predicates for the implementation of a "Complete Streets" project should be.

This work describes the protection mechanism of transmission line at fault. Transmission line is divided into three zones and it is also provided by a backup protection MATLAB simulation was used to represent the three steps protection under single line to ground fault in different zones. Distance Relay was used to measure impedance as a part of power system, when the fault impedance dropped below the predetermined value a trip signal will transmit to the circuit breaker. MATLAB simulation is used to simulate the proposed model for three zones. The results illustrated the fault impedance at each zone and finally it has been concluded that the lower impedance is obtained at zone B (27.33 ?) in phase T.

Accessible reading is still a major challenge for those with visual impairments in our digitally-driven world, particularly for those who are born blind. The creation of a Letter Recognition System (LRS) for the blind is the novel solution to this problem that this research suggests. With the help of this device, blind people can access printed letters according to its reading solution. In order to obtain images of printed letters, this study presents practical hardware that uses a webcam and a manual printing machine. The paper can be moved to acquire the written letters on it. Hence, a large collection of data containing letters known as Printed English Letters-version 2 (PEL2) dataset was gathered for the printed English letters (A–Z). Following acquisition, the input images undergo preparation, segmentation, and resizing. After that, a Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) is used to recognize letters from them. Ultimately, it is recommended that the identified letter be transformed into letter-to-speech audio to enhance the system's efficacy in assisting blind or visually impaired individuals with reading. In this work, a very high accuracy of 99.70% for letter identification has been calculated and attained.

Heat stress is one of the major environmental factors affecting the productivity and survival of broiler chickens in the North east region of Nigeria. Tamarindus indica (T. indica) fruit pulp is an alternative cheaper plant product with the potential to mitigate heat stress in broiler chickens. An experiment was conducted for 21 days to evaluate the effects of T.indica fruit pulp solution on the productive performance and carcass characteristics of broiler chickens during heat period (March to April, 2024) in Mubi area of Adamawa State, Nigeria. The experiment consist of five treatments, the first treatment has zero supplementation anti-stress T1 (0 g/L), second treatment has commercial anti-stress T2 (CAS) in water, while treatments three, four and five (T3, T4 and T5) contain clean dried T. indica fruit pulp soaked in water for 24 hours at room temperature at concentrations of 10, 20 and 30 g/L, respectively and thereafter sieved to obtained the T. indica fruit pulp solution that was supplied to the chickens. A total of 150 four weeks old broiler chickens were randomly allotted to the treatments in a Completely Randomized Design replicated three times with 10 broiler chickens each. The result of productive performance revealed significant variation (P<0.05) except for the total and daily feed intake. The highest weight gain and the best feed conversion ratio were recorded in T5 (2250 g) and (2.05) while the worst feed conversion ratio was observed in T1 (3.15). The carcass characteristics were not significantly (P<0.05) affected by the treatments except for the wings which indicated higher values in T3 (7.05%), T4 (7.22%) and T5 (7.17%). However, the dressing percentage of the broiler chickens ranged from 76.6 to 78.20%. It was concluded from this study that T. indica fruit pulp can be supplemented in drinking water of broiler chickens up to 30 g/L without compromising the productive performance and carcass characteristics of broiler chickens and is therefore the recommended level for combating heat stress in broiler chickens.
Integrating Pathanjali yoga sutras in Education Settings.

Published: December 2024

The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, one of the texts in the yoga tradition, represent a profound framework of personal development that encompasses ethical guidelines, mental disciplines, and meditative practices. This paper outlines the application of these ancient teachings in a modern educational setting with a view toward holistic development in students. The qualitative approach of the study was supported by in-depth case studies of schools that had integrated Patanjali's Yoga Sutras into their curriculum. Data collection occurred through interviews with educators, students, and parents, and observation of classroom practices and extracurricular activities. Findings pointed out attentionenhanced concentration, reduced stress, and emotional intelligence enrichment among their students. Educators reported a much more orderly classroom and greater student engagement. The following are the three key strategies that will be implemented: mindfulness practices, ethical discussions, and yoga exercises used within daily routines. These practices help in developing a reflective mindset, which increases clarity of mind, emotional stability, and ethical behavior. This research has illustrated how the practice of the Yoga Sutras can actually make all the difference in the educational experience. Use of Patañjali's Yoga Sutras in education would imply their implementation in the learning environment to improve physical, mental, and spiritual health. Patañjali's Yoga Sutras are an all-inclusive guide in personal growth and self-improvement; this fabric of learning can be woven into the goals of the education sector, which are aimed at holistic growth. Of more relevance are the aspects that show very close relations to the Yoga Sutras, which are the Ashtanga, or Eight Limbs, of yoga. These, therefore, feature ethical disciplines-the Yamas and Niyamas; physical postures, the Asanas; breath control, the Pranayama; sense withdrawal, the Pratyahara; concentration, the Dharana; meditation, the Dhyana; and absorption, the Samadhi. The translation into an educational context would be practices that bring mindfulness, self-regulation of character, and emotional intelligence.

Tobacco is a botanical species that yields goods of a refined and elaborate character. The quality level is contingent upon the individual preferences of each purchaser. Tobacco is a distinctive and gratifying commodity that lacks a universal accepted worldwide standard, unlike other agricultural goods. One significant determinant influencing tobacco plants throughout the cultivation phase of the crops. The incorporation of growth regulators in the manufacturing process is a factor that warrants consideration. Auxin is a ubiquitous hormone synthesised in plant tissues during periods of active division. Auxin plays a crucial part in the cellular processes of division, expansion, and specialisation. Auxin type IAA has emerged as a viable choice for application. The present study used a fully randomised design, including four treatment levels: 0, 100ppm, 200ppm, and 300ppm IAA concentration. The measurements under investigation in this study encompass leaf width, leaf length, fresh weight, and overall crop yield at the time of harvest. Analysis of the harvest findings at 60 days after planting (DAP) and 75 DAP reveals variations in leaf width and leaf length. However, no differences are detected at 90 DAP. There were no significant differences seen in the fresh weight and overall yield of the crops in terms of total leaf weight and plant weight.
