Published: January 2023

Our government has enacted restrictive and isolation measures, also in the field of rehabilitation, to combat and contain the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. These have had a major impact on the working methods and activities performed by the Speech Therapist. The Board of Speech Therapists of the Interprovincial Order of NA-AV-BN-CE conducted an anonymous survey to observe the phenomenon. The study aimed to assess how and to what extent the health measures in place influenced occupational activities and work-related discomfort. A questionnaire was structured to investigate, anonymously, different areas of professional interest (how therapeutic activities are carried out, work-related stress management, changes in human relations, specific needs), disseminated via the web thanks to the Google platform, and available from 15/06/2020 to 15/11/2022 for all speech therapists belonging to the interprovincial order of NA-AV-BN-CE. 161 Speech Therapists, aged between 21 and 40 years (73.9 per cent), took part in the survey. They worked mainly in a combined telerehabilitation and outpatient setting (64.12 per cent), and were provided with appropriate PPE for the treatment (65.8 per cent). Speech and language therapists reported a low to medium level of frustration (63.9%) and work-related stress (63.4%) for telerehabilitation treatment, to a high level for outpatient or home treatment (69.6%). Medium to high values (81.4%) of anxiety, worry and work-related distress are reported, favoured by social isolation and a perception of less support among colleagues, with a perceived need for psychological support from specialised figures to manage the emotional burden. The results suggest a medium to high level of work-related discomfort during the pandemic period, mainly for speech therapists who performed outpatient/domiciliary activities, entailing the risk of developing psychological distress. Further research should be undertaken, with multicentre and larger sample size studies, to define the relationships between the working methods promoted, work-related stress and the need to manage it.

Published: January 2023

The aim of this study was to test two models and two sizes of microlysimeters to determine soil water evaporation as a function of the removal of water by drainage at the bottom of the units. The experiment was conducted at the experimental field of the State University of Mato Grosso (UNEMAT) in Tangará da Serra, Mato Grosso, Brazil. Soil water evaporation was determined using microlysimeters constructed from rigid PVC tubes, of which two models and two sizes were tested. The four microlysimeter treatments were: 100 mm diameter without drainage (ML100WD), 100 mm diameter with drainage (ML100D), 150 mm diameter without drainage (ML150WD), and 150 mm diameter with drainage (ML150D). The microlysimeters were fitted to an irrigation blade of 60 mm and compared to applications with four irrigation blade sizes (15, 30, 45, and 60 mm). Water evaporation from the soil was obtained from the mass variation of the microlysimeters, and was then compared to the soil water evaporation determined using weighing lysimeters. The obtained data were analyzed using descriptive statistical techniques, tests of means, and regression analysis. The soil water evaporation values present significant differences between the two microlysimeter sizes (100 and 150 mm diameter) and the two models (with and without water drainage). Soil water evaporation is affected by the water drainage that occurs at the bottom of the microlysimeters. There was no difference in soil water evaporation between irrigation rates within the same microlysimeter size and model. The two models and the two microlysimeter sizes tested can be used for the quantification of soil water evaporation, due to the high determination coefficients observed when compared to the evaporation observed with the weighing lysimeters.

Critical Review on the Inclusion of the Measurement of Nitrogen Produced in Short Incubations (Nan) in the Diagnostic Protocol of Nitrogenous Fertility in Cordoba (Argentina)
Authors: Carmen Rollán Adriana Ana del , A Bachmeier, O. , A Moreno, M.
Published: January 2023

N is the nutrient that is applied in the greatest quantity to increase crop yields. Having a soil analysis that allows estimating the N needs of the crop would have economic and environmental benefits. The measurement of total C, total N and the content of N-nitrates are part of the analytical protocol that is carried out in pre-sowing for diagnostic purposes. However, the relationship between these measurements and actual N mineralization in the field is only approximate. To improve the estimation of N availability, it is necessary to consider the initial inorganic N and the mineralized N (Nmin) during the growing season. The search for an accurate predictor of Nmin that can be done quickly in the laboratory has sparked interest in measuring N in short anaerobic incubations or Nan. In this article, the soil properties that intervene in the N mineralization process that affect the measurement of Nan are exposed to know the scope: advantages and disadvantages of the inclusion of Nan in the routine protocol for diagnostic purposes for its use as a predictor of mineralized N during the crop cycle.

Published: January 2023

The growth of management theories, principles, and concepts in Nigeria is whether the application McClelland acquired need and Skinner’s reinforcement theories improve companies’ performance. In a qualitative study design, thematic and theoretical research approaches were employed. This study lends credence to the premise that management theories are influenced by the current business environment since theories have evolved over time to meet changing internal and external requirements of firms. These approaches may keep moving because the contingency theory emphasizes that there is not a single best method of management. According to the study, management philosophy is advancing rather than stagnating. Once upon a time, people thought that they were the only beings in the universe capable of having a true experience of themselves, but they were unable to understand themselves in modern society. In this work, the researcher reviews every aspect of the B. F. Skinner Reinforcement Theory of Motivation. This study reviews Skinner's reinforcement theory and McClelland's acquired need theories on companies’ performance. Giving a front-line employee the freedom to make decisions right away while considering the effects on the organization is empowerment. Attracting and keeping customers in service firms is a difficult undertaking. Employees who are given psychological support will be better able to take the initiative to provide for customers. The goal of the current paper is to investigate how psychological empowerment is impacted by motivational needs. The independent variable is the requirement for motivation while, the dependent variable of psychological empowerment. Different variables were measured using standard tools, and their effects on psychological empowerment were investigated. The relevance and association are determined and assessed using a variety of inferential statistics. The key finding is that psychological empowerment is significantly and positively correlated with all motivating demands, excluding connection. Certain organization was used because its staff members are expected to exhibit a high level of demand for affiliation.

Published: January 2023

Purpose: Diabetes can increase oxidative stress in various tissues of the body, and the progress of this process is associated with intensification of the complications of diabetes. The current study purposed to evaluate the protective effect of Pinus gerardiana (PG) seed on oxidative stress induced by diabetes in the liver and serum of streptozotocin (STZ)- induced diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: This interventional study was performed on 36 male Wistar rats. The rats were randomly divided into 6 groups (healthy controls, healthy treated with 3% and 6% (PG), diabetic control, diabetic treated with 3% and 6% (PG) doses). After 6 weeks of intervention, weight, glucose, and oxidative stress parameters in serum and liver including total antioxidant capacity, malondialdehyde, total thiol and superoxide dismutase activity were measured. Data analysis was done by statistical software version 16 and Tukey’s one-way ANOVA tests. Results: Diabetic rats showed significantly higher malondialdehyde and fasting glucose levels (12±1.2 mmol/L) and significant reductions in fasting insulin serum, weight (−37%), and activity of superoxide dismutase enzymes, total thiol groups, and total antioxidant capacity of serum and liver (about +49% in liver and +16% in serum) (p < 0.001) compared with the healthy groups. Oral administration of PG nuts to diabetic rats caused a significant reduction in malondialdehyde and fasting glucose levels (−43%) and weight loss (+15%), and a significant increase in activity of superoxide dismutase enzymes, total thiol groups, and total antioxidant capacity of serum and liver (p < 0.001). Conclusion: The present study concluded that PG can decrease fasting blood glucose, improve insulin resistance, reduce weight loss, and improve oxidative stress indices in the serum and liver of STZ-induced diabetic rats. It is a potential therapeutic food supplement for the treatment and prevention of hyperglycemia and high oxidative stress of diabetes.

Published: January 2023

The course of married life, often colored by a variety of happy events or vice versa, contributes to marital satisfaction or dissatisfaction. The presence of children in married life will be one of the signs of achieving the goal of marriage.  But in reality not all couples are blessed with children easily. Not having children in marriage can be one of life's disappointments that can affect marital satisfaction.  In fact, what is more important than a marriage is not only the presence of children, but the success and satisfaction of marriage felt by the husband and wife.  The satisfaction of married is largely determined by the internal and external factors of both partners.  This study aims to determine the role of marital commitment and family support for marital satisfaction in childless couples. The study participants were 290 husbands and wives who had no children after more than five years of marriage. The data collection technique used snowball sampling, and was analyzed using multiple linear regression tests. The results of the study found that marital commitment and family support both play a role in marital satisfaction in couples who have been married for more than five years. Simultaneously, the length of marriage also predicts marital satisfaction.

Published: January 2023

Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare extra-nodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). It primarily affects the immunocompromised but is rarely seen in immunocompetent individuals. The pitfalls in the healthcare system of lower-middle-income countries produce many obstacles, impeding timely diagnosis, timely treatment, and optimal quality of care. A 57-year-old immunocompetent, diabetic female presented with progressive generalised fatiguability, forgetfulness, and subtle behavioural changes for the last one and a half years. MRI revealed an area of gyri from dense post-contrast enhancement in the right posterior parietal region. Her symptoms kept aggravating with periods of partial remission as steroids were being administered. Reasons for delays in diagnosis and hence timely treatment include lack of primary care referral, conflicting neurosurgical opinion, and absence of multidisciplinary team management. A right posterior parietal parasagittal craniotomy was performed to excise the lesion. The patient was subsequently referred for adjuvant therapy. We use our patient's clinical journey to exemplify the structural barriers to providing optimal and timely care for brain tumour patients in a developing country. Primary CNS Lymphomas in immunocompetent patients are rare. Poor infrastructure and referral pathways contribute to delayed diagnosis. Lack of multi-disciplinary care owing to organisational issues is a major problem faced by brain tumour patients in a lower-middle-income country like ours. Brain tumour management requires a specialist multidisciplinary team approach to ensure timely diagnosis and optimal treatment

Published: January 2023

Objective:  We assessed the neurologic status of patients with cervical spine caries after anterior cervical decompression fusion and plating in terms of muscle power measured by MRC (medical research council) grade and functional status measured by Nurick grade.

Materials and Methods:  A descriptive case series study was conducted and 36 subjects with lower cervical spine (C3 – C7) were included with cervical spine caries who needed anterior cervical decompression and plating operated by the department of Neurosurgery, KEMU/Mayo Hospital. The cervical spine TB was confirmed using an MRI plain and contrasted cervical spine. Post-surgical neurological examinations were performed on the 1st, 7th, 21st, and 42nd days and the 3rd and 6th months after surgery. The neurological state was measured in terms of muscle power measured by MRC grades and functional outcome was assessed from Nurick grades.

Results:  The mean age of the patients was 37.0 ± 14.4 years. The majority of patients had C5 caries spine (28%) and the least had C7 caries spine (14%). Most of the patients had pre-operative MRC grade 3 (41.7%). The majority had Nurick’s grade 5 (55.6%). 17% of patients had post-operative hoarseness of voice. 31% of the patients had post-operative dysphasia which improved by 3 weeks. 3% developed a new neurological deficit in the form of deterioration of muscle power measured by MRC grade during 6 months’ follow-up time.

Conclusion:  All follow-up improvements were statistically significant in terms of pre-operative status.

Objectives:  The study compared the signs and symptoms of post-operative complications in early vs. late intervention lipomeningomyelocele (LMMC) and lipomeningocele (LMC).

Materials and Methods:  We compared the clinical and surgical data between two groups i.e., lipomeningomyelocele (n = 189) and lipomeningocele (n = 64), and their early vs. late surgical interventions for 3 years from January 2018 to July 2021. We included patients of both genders (n = 253) with lipomeningomyelocele or lipomeningocele aged up to 7 years. A detailed neurological exam i.e., sensory, motor, and cerebellar signs was performed to evaluate the patients.

Results:  The presentation of LMMC (74.7%) was very high compared to LMC (25.3%). 74.7% underwent detethering of the spinal cord, as they had cord tissue coming out of the defect. 25.2% had only meninges coming out of the bony deficiency and performed dural repairs. 47 patients had incontinence which was improved postoperatively. Sixty-nine patients had hydrocephalus which was treated with VP shunt or ETV. 23 patients had diastematomyelia which is a bony spur duly repaired intra-operatively. 50 presented with paraplegia and 19 cases with club feet. The majority of patients in both groups, reported for Power would fall between 3/5-4/5. For patients who underwent late intervention, 7 presented with post-operative incontinence, 12 with hydrocephalus, 12 with CSF leakage, and 13 with paraplegia.

Conclusion:  If performed on time, surgical intervention in lipomeningocele and lipomeningomyelocele yields good results. Early intervention is substantially better for managing post-op CSF leakage and incontinence than late intervention.

La calidad de la educación en Colombia hoy en día se confirma a partir de las pruebas estandarizadas que diseña y aplica el Instituto Colombiano para la Evaluación de la Educación (ICFES) a todos los estudiantes del país en sus diferentes niveles. El propósito de este artículo es analizar los resultados de una prueba diagnóstica de saberes previos diseñada por el ICFES en el área de matemáticas aplicada a todos los estudiantes de básica secundaria y media técnica de la Institución Educativa San Antonio del Pescado (IESAP), ubicada en la zona rural del municipio de Garzón (Huila). Dentro de los aspectos encontrados está el paralelismo de las pruebas aplicadas a los estudiantes de grado undécimo en los últimos cinco años con respecto a la prueba diagnóstica realizada al inicio del año escolar 2022. De igual manera, se especifican algunos de los efectos de la pandemia como la repitencia y deserción escolar, junto con la falta de acompañamiento y seguimiento de parte del estado en mejorar las condiciones educativas de los estudiantes. Asimismo, se analiza la importancia y relación que existe entre los saberes, el docente y el alumno (triángulo de la didáctica) y la oportunidad de utilizar las competencias matemáticas desde una perspectiva integral desde sus tres dimensiones que se conectan con los seis saberes primordiales de Romero (2019) para propender de manera didáctica a aumentar no solo los resultados de pruebas estandarizadas, sino también a desarrollar las competencias para la vida futura de los estudiantes.

Published: January 2023

This study aimed to investigate, analyze, and develop the impact of transformational leadership and work-life balance on the performance of lecturers at DKI Jakarta. This study employs a descriptive and verification methodology with a quantitative approach. This study collected a sample of 55 instructors from multiple private universities in DKI Jakarta using a random selection technique. This study uses offline and online questionnaires (G-Form), interviews, and observation to collect data. This study assessed the value of validity, reliability, normality test, heteroscedasticity test, T test, F test, multiple linear regression analysis test, correlation analysis, and coefficient of determination analysis using SPSS version 24. This study concludes that permanent professors in DKI Jakarta are favourably and negatively affected by their capacity to maintain a work-life balance. The effectiveness of lecturers at DKI Jakarta is unaffected by transformative leadership. Consequently, the semesterly performance of lecturers at DKI Jakarta is indirectly influenced by the policies published and executed by officials and academic leaders at other higher institutions. In addition, transformational leadership, which consists of Ideal Influence, Inspirational Motivation, Intellectual Stimulation, and Individual Consideration, is regarded as a key category in a variety of DKI Jakarta institutions. Therefore, it is vital to strengthen the leadership at various universities in DKI Jakarta by employing transformational leadership qualities.Given that this study demonstrates that work-family conflict cannot mediate the relationship between work-life balance and lecturer performance, it can serve as a resource for future researchers by illustrating related research findings that contribute to the research gap affecting lecturer performance.
Metropolitan polynodal cores as the basis of the new regional organization of Czechia
Authors: Marada Miroslav , Komárek Marek , Šimbera Jan
Published: January 2023

Theoretical research on geographical organization is, in Czechia, mainly associated with Martin Hampl (1940−2022). This paper refers to his extraordinary work. In this article, integrated systems of centers are first defined by two methods: by applying M. Hampl’s method and by using the new criterion of reciprocal mobility. Subsequently, both delimitations are compared, and a typology of these systems is made. Next, the commuting microregions of the integrated systems of centers are created on the basis of commuting patterns from municipalities. The regionalization performed is then a tool to verify the concordance of the regional organization determined by the polynodal cores and given by the Hampl’s mononodal microregional centers. We assume that in reality a more valid regional system will have greater regional integrity of the defined regions and its hierarchization will be more consistent with the theoretical assumptions of the rank size rule. We view the resulting findings both as a stimulus for discussing the methodology for delineating integrated system of centers and as a basis for comparing the expected results of the current national census of 2021.
Institutional thickness of a shrinkage region with discontinuous development in a border periphery in Czechia

Published: January 2023

The article examines the effects of the social networks of a range of actors on the local development of municipalities located in Czech peripheral border regions. Its main goals are to shed light on and understand the role of social interactions in the development activities of individual municipalities in border-region peripheries and reveal the spatial differentiation of these municipalities. The borderland Cheb district (western Bohemia) is affected by the shrinkage process, and the concept of institutional thickness is used as the explanatory framework. One of the key conclusions is that the more disadvantages there are, the more important institutional thickness is as a development factor. The research data are drawn from 24 semi-structured interviews with the mayors of municipalities that within the system of state administration are municipalities without extended powers. The research also confirmed the diversity of individuals holding the position of mayor and the differences in the specific role mayors play in local development, as well as how important it is for municipalities to be active in microregional associations. It also showed that the internal differentiation of development opportunities and the formation of formal and informal ties are also determined by the quality of horizontal and vertical cooperation.
PERMISSIBLE LEVEL OF BIOGAS CONSUMPTION IN THE PRODUCTION OF ELECTRICITY FOR A LIVESTOCK FARM

Published: January 2023

This work considers the question of determining the permissible level of use of big gas for a biogas plant for the production of electrical energy, taking into account the reliability of the equipment.
The processing of animal husbandry waste into biogas will make it possible to partially solve environmental problems, as well as to obtain benefits in the form of decentralized production of renewable energy or fuel production. The role of renewable energy sources in energy production is constantly growing, and the issue of increasing the share of renewable sources in the energy balance of each individual country is currently relevant. In the supply of primary energy, the share of renewable energy accounts for 19% on a global scale. Of these, biomass accounts for 10%, or 258 million tons per year, i.e. in the world, biomass provides the largest share of energy supply from renewable sources. Domestic agricultural enterprises are significant consumers of fuel and energy resources, therefore they face an objective need to use alternative energy sources, including biological types of fuel and the introduction of innovative energy-saving technologies. Biogas production is an efficient and investment-attractive technology due to the presence of significant raw material potential, favorable natural and climatic conditions, etc. However, the level of introduction of this type of energy in the agricultural sector is insufficient, which is related to a number of issues, including the insufficient level of practical recommendations for choosing the power of electric energy generators, their number, operating modes taking into account the daily schedule of energy consumption, loading and optimal efficiency installations when providing autonomous power supply of the enterprise. In this paper, the level of energy supply of livestock farms due to the use of biogas as an energy source of plants using livestock waste is determined.

Published: January 2023

Reducing childhood immunization coverage has led to re-emerging of vaccine-preventable diseases among young children. This study aimed to identify the prevalence and predictors of complete childhood immunization among the low socioeconomic urban households’ children in Malaysia. A nationwide survey data from the National Health and Morbidity Survey (NHMS) 2016 was utilized to extract 2668 completed data of respondents who had a household income of less than RM 4,000 and living in urban areas were included in the analysis. The children’s home-based cards were used to verify the data on the primary childhood immunization status. Related data from the household and child health modules were extracted three levels of analysis were conducted using SPSS Version 25 that were descriptive analysis, bivariate analysis and multivariable analysis. The prevalence of complete primary childhood immunization uptake was 89.5%. Mothers of 20 to 29 years old, 30 to 39 years old, and 40 years old and above had 2.704 (aOR=2.704, 95% CI:1.255-5.827), 3.305 (aOR=3.305, 95% CI:1.526-7.160), 3.058 (aOR=3.058, 95% CI:1.165-8.029) higher odds of having children with complete childhood immunization status compared to those younger. Meanwhile, mothers who were self-employed, students and utilized private healthcare facilities had 0.2773 (aOR=0.273, 95% CI:0.138-0.540), 0.063 (aOR=0.063, 95% CI:0.014-0.288) and 0.200 (aOR=0.200, 95% CI:0.118-0.338) lower odds towards complete primary childhood immunization uptake among their children. Below global recommended coverage of complete primary immunization uptake was observed among the urban poor children. Mothers who were young, self-employed, students and utilizing private healthcare facilities should be targeted to improve immunization coverage among children or urban localities.
Efecto de la estrategia de enseñanza implícita en jugadores de baloncesto
Authors: Camacho Lazarraga Pablo
Published: January 2023

Los procesos incidentales otorgan ventajas al jugador de baloncesto, pues liberan recursos para otros procesos cognitivos. El objetivo es analizar si el aprendizaje implícito reduce el estrés y produce un efecto en las acciones motrices. Participaron 24 estudiantes. Se diseñaron 4 condiciones experimentales con limitación temporal, motriz y combinación de ambas. La modificación en las condiciones de práctica influye significativamente en el esfuerzo percibido de los jugadores y en determinadas variables individuales y colectivas del juego. Se concluye que podemos considerar la restricción temporal como un medio eficaz para incrementar la carga mental en el proceso de entrenamiento.
