Authors: Lepre Rita Melissa , Trevisol Maria Teresa Ceron
Published: January 2024

Este artigo se configura como um ensaio teórico, que possui como objetivo promover reflexões a respeito dos temas: 1) O que é e por que educar em valores morais, e 2) A importância da relação professor-aluno na educação em valores morais na escola. A concepção teórico-epistemológica interacionista, e autores convergentes com a compreensão de que a construção de valores morais é resultante das interações sociais, culturais, em diferentes contextos e pessoas, constituem o embasamento do texto. A análise e discussão dos temas norteadores enfatiza a importância e necessidade da inserção da educação em valores morais na escola, visto o ambiente de convivência, socialização, relações com diferentes pessoas, que caracteriza esse contexto, desde a perspectiva que o Projeto Político Pedagógico assume, como também em transversalizar esse conteúdo na proposta curricular. Nesse sentido, a relação professor e aluno assume um lugar e papel de importância. Os estilos e formas como o professor mantém e estabelece os momentos de trocas com os estudantes, a partir do respeito mútuo e da reciprocidade, constituem vivência formativa no processo de educação em valores. Entretanto, não cabe somente aos professores mobilizar os processos educativos desta natureza, mas ao coletivo de profissionais, com os estudantes, as famílias e a sociedade em geral.

Authors: Khushi Muhammad Tahira Jabeen , Hassan Syeda Muneeba , Al-Azhari Abdul Wahab Jan
Published: January 2024

Islamic history has immortalized immortal mothers who were symbols of Islam. Their concern was the support of Islam, and the biography presented shining examples of mothers who were generous sources and whose children were the fruits of their cultivation. They were mothers who knew the status of motherhood, the role of the mother in sacrifice and Jihad, and the importance of working on the formation of the Muslim home and raising children armed with the light of knowledge working on the advancement of their religion. Where are the pioneers of the renaissance of motherhood among these models today…? Was the status of the mother - which many people neglected due to the weakness of religious faith - to be restricted to celebrating her one day a year?  In this article, we will learn about some shining models from mothers of scholars and venerable preachers who greatly served Islam and spread beneficial knowledge…Perhaps these models will be a shining beacon for mothers today so that these models will guide today‘s mothers in how to raise their children in the light of important Islamic values and meanings.

Authors: Rivero Hernández Melesio , Velázquez Martínez María De los Ángeles , Pérez Román Mayra Patricia
Published: January 2024

El objetivo de la investigación es analizar las condiciones institucionales prevalecientes en los municipios de la Zona Norte del Valle de México, colindantes con el Aeropuerto Internacional Felipe Ángeles, con el propósito de identificar los componentes de gobernanza que pueden instrumentarse para lograr una mejor gestión de sus territorios. La metodología parte de un enfoque deductivo, tomando como conceptos centrales la gobernanza y la gobernanza territorial, de la cual se desprendieron los componentes que indican los retos y oportunidades de los municipios. Entre los principales resultados se observó un importante rezago en la gobernanza a pesar de que el marco institucional es propicio para el efecto; ello se refleja en una gestión territorial deficitaria. Como conclusión se argumenta que existen claros nichos de oportunidad que deben ser atendidos; es decir, existe la necesidad de contar con gobiernos más abiertos al escrutinio público y a la construcción de formas de cogestión en red con la participación de agentes privados y sociales en el diseño, implementación y evaluación de las políticas públicas territoriales.

Geografías artificiales y funcionales de la sostenibilidad: producción de problemas y soluciones
Authors: Jiménez Corrales Andrés
Published: January 2024

La sostenibilidad es un concepto globalizado que ha constituido un recurso activado por diversos actores con el propósito de diseñar y adecuar proyectos y acciones para fines particulares. Este artículo propone, a partir de un profundo análisis documental, un acercamiento a las geografías artificiales y funcionales que la sostenibilidad permite gestar para la reproducción del capitalismo. Para ello se utilizará el caso del Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo (BID), específicamente lo que fue articulado dentro de la Iniciativa de Ciudades Emergentes y Sostenibles (ICES), para comprender los usos políticos de la sostenibilidad y sus posibles impactos en las transformaciones territoriales. Se concluye que el BID es un actor que, haciendo uso del discurso de la sostenibilidad, diseñó y puso en marcha una iniciativa que busca materializar una ciudad competitiva para los negocios empresariales y para el mercado instrumentalizando un proceso de neoliberalización urbana en América Central.

Unraveling the Intricacies of Implementing Judicial Pardon within UAE Legislation
Authors: Alrousan Ehab , Faqir Raed S. A.
Published: January 2024

This study delves into the utilization of judicial pardon within the framework of Article 152 of the UAE Federal Law on Crimes and Penalties, serving as an alternative to short-term prison sentences. The examination of this system reveals a range of organizational and judicial challenges inherent in its implementation, stemming from the existing gaps in the provisions of Article 152. The research investigates the efficacy of judicial pardon for both the individual offender and broader society. The conditions and stipulations outlined in Article 152 are scrutinized for a comprehensive understanding, encompassing elements relevant to both the offender and the committed offense. Furthermore, the study evaluates the judiciary's role in dispensing pardons to culpable individuals, leading to the cessation of legal and judicial prosecution against the offender. This study is especially significant as it marks a pioneering effort within the Emirati legal context, underscoring its valuable contribution to the future enhancement of the judicial pardon system. Utilizing a descriptive and analytical methodology, this study embarks on a jurisprudential and legislative inquiry. It examines legal regulations and judicial rulings to derive suitable resolutions for the identified challenges. The research draws from primary and secondary sources, including case law, statutory provisions, legal literature, and scholarly publications. Ultimately, the study culminates in a collection of outcomes and recommendations that advocate for objective and procedural remedies to enhance the implementation of this system.

Resisting the Real Through Imagined Interiors and Social Media’s Spaces of Uncertainty
Authors: Loder Dave
Published: January 2024

A distinct visual genre has emerged of digitally realised interiors and architectural spaces emblematic in their dreamlike, surreal, and imagined condition, exemplified by digital practitioners including Charlotte Tayler, Andrés Reisinger, and Six N. Five. These virtual spaces, which have predominantly been circulated and popularised via image-based social media platforms, contribute to a stratum of images of the interior, or more precisely, the ‘interior-as-image’. As such, their consumption via the digital screen agitates an uncertain condition between imagined and real. Indeed, some of these designs have become emergent into the actual, transitioning from imaginings for the digital screen into inhabitable interior spaces, to further trouble the uncertainties of virtual and real, digital and physical.
This emergent category of interior-as-image can potentially be located under cultural theorist Jean Baudrillard’s ‘hyperreality’, a hyperreal visuality that eliminates the difference between image and reality. With the replacement of reality with the sign/image, signification is suspended for the interior-as-image. However, these digitally rendered interiors are not absent of potential meaning and external reference despite the immediacy of their activation and engagement. Through their instrumentalisation as Non-Fungible Token (NFT) artefacts and unique, commodified digital objects, these uncertain interiors are entangled with energy-hungry machine processes in their production. In the contemporary era of climate crisis and the critique of progressive modernity, where the capacity to envision a sustainable future is itself challenging, this category of digital artefact has the potential to intensify a precarious and uncertain time to come. Moreover, the infrastructural condition(ing) of the circulation and consumption of the interior-as-image via social media platforms has the potential to encode an ‘algorithmic anxiety’, a doubling of embedded uncertainty.
This text-based essay proposes to define and contextualise this particular category of digital interioras-image, designating its critical and contemporary mode of uncertainty. In addition to establishing its artefactual status as a discrete yet materially entangled digital object, the potential significance for the discipline of interior design will be questioned. In investigating a number of spatial projects for which the digital image is a primary mode of engagement, this essay reflects on the intersection of the virtual and physical for interior design, and deliberates on the potential of imaginaries of virtual worlds for unlocking new interior materialities.

Authors: Badriah Siti , Cahyati Peni , Nurcahyani Lia , Iman Arief Tarmansyah , Ristrini Ristrini , Astuti Athanasia Budi
Published: January 2024

Background: The prevalence of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) in Indonesia continues to increase, even though DM control policies and programs have been implemented. According to existing policies, the family has not been involved in diabetes control. This study evaluates diabetes mellitus management policies by designing family-based community empowerment model interventions with a systems approach to surge capacity.
 
Methods: The design of this study used a cross-sectional operational analysis conducted in Cirebon City with 26 participants. Data collection was carried out using Focus Group Discussion (FGD) and in-depth interviews using interview guidelines from the surge capacity component. Inclusion criteria were Non-Communicable Diseases program holders at the Cirebon City Health Office and Community Health Centers with the highest and lowest prevalence, and DM sufferers and their families representing each age and gender category. Data analysis was performed using open code.
 
Results: The non-communicable disease program has not been integrated between the health office and the hospital; funds for the DM prevention program have not met the needs; there are limited human resources with multiple tasks and an excessive workload, so it is not optimal for DM health services; and there is a lack of family involvement in diabetes control, so the incidence of DM is still not usually controlled.
 
Conclusion: Policy studies using a system approach in surge capacity have been able to dig up various information on DM control efforts in terms of policy, organizational structure, DM surveillance, information systems, integrated services, case screening, budgeting, and community empowerment.
Mechanism of Change in Demographic Ageing
Authors: EL-ROUBY M.G.
Published: January 2024

Of all contemporary phenomena, Demographic Ageing is, as Sauvy has put it, "the least doubted, the best measured, the most regular in its effects and the easiest to forecast well ahead as well as the most influential. Yet it is probably the least known of all" I Demographic ageing or ageing of human populations differs significantly from ageing of the individuals forming these populations both in the causes underlying the process of ageing and in the consequences occurring after the process has developed. In individuals'ageing, individuals are treated as separate units with the incidence of ageing recorded for each of them as his age increases with time. At advanced age, contribution of the individual to the luxury of his life gradually diminishes up to a stage in which the individual's basic needs can hardly be met as a result of his limited physical and intellectual abilities. Whereas in population ageing, all individuals constituting a particular population are dealt with as a one single unit, the aggregate of the individuals, with an average age computed for the whole unit at varying points of time and the changes in the structure of the aggregate and its age are recorded. The age of the population may not necessarily increase with time as it is the case with individual's ageing and therefore, the population may proceed in either directions: towards ageing or rejuvenation. Contrasted with individual's ageing, population ageing may be advantgeous to the population in various economic and social spheres.

Authors: Ashutosh sanga  , Manish Kumar Singh
Published: January 2024

Introduction: Pancytopenia, simultaneous presence of anemia, leucopenia and thrombocytopenia, is a commonclinical entity that we see in day to day practice Proper diagnostic evaluation requires detailed clinical history,physical examination and haematological assessment including careful peripheral blood smear examination andbone marrow evaluation.Materials and Methods: A total of 80 adult patients with pancytopenia/bicytopenia presenting between January2021 to January 2022 were included in the study. All patients underwent detailed clinical history and physicalexamination. Careful peripheral blood smear examination, CBC and bone marrow aspirate was done in all. Bonemarrow biopsy was done wherever feasible.Results: Megaloblastic anemia was the commonest cause of pancytopenia/bicytopenia making up 37.5% of allcases followed by erythroid hyperplasia (20%), aplastic anemia (10%). Haematological malignancies accounted for23.75% cases of the total. Bone marrow biopsy aided in the diagnosis of 8 cases (6 cases of aplastic anemia and twocases of dry tap) while in others it was concordant with aspiration findings.Conclusion: Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy are an important adjunct to peripheral smear examination forevaluation of cytopenias. Bone marrow trephine biopsy is helpful in cases of dry tap. We also conclude that thereis high prevalence of megaloblastic anemia due to nutritional deficiency among young population. Hence, this agerange should be the prime target for education regarding proper dietary habits, the remediation of which mightreduce the clinical burden of megaloblastic anemia.

Authors: Parismita Bhagawati
Published: January 2024

As opposed to the traditional biomedical view of health, the social model of health defines it essentially, as a positive concept which significantly hinges on and is impacted by the social settings, personality of the individual , as well as physical capacities.’ It is in this context, mental health issues among women in general and Indian women in particular, as a subset of the larger corpus of health concerns needs to be inevitably understood and contextualised in the societal and cultural milieu within which women operate. One of such important societal constructs that seems to have a significant impact on mental and emotional health and experience of women is the the construct of gender and its corollaries like gender roles, expectations, demeanour, stereotypes etc. The social construct of gender engineers a woman’s position in the social hierarchy and also has a prominent bearing on her social and personal life experiences. Consequently, socio-cultural context and gender need to be understood as powerful decisive factors of one’s mental and emotional make-up that colludes with other variables like age, family, educational attainment, occupational structure, income and social support etc. The paper attempts to study the mental health concerns among women in India by especially, trying to locate its causes in the socio-cultural factors amid which the women live. Conclusively, the paper tries to highlight various suggestions for developing holistic solutions towards the improvement of mental health of women.

Published: January 2024

Essential oils have been reported as an important compounds in the pharmaceutical industries for their antibacterial and antioxidant activity. This study was conducted to investigate the antioxidant activity of Eucalyptus camaldulensis volatile oil and hydrosol obtained from young and adult leaves. Oil extraction was carried out by using steam distillation method. The antioxidant power was estimated by using the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1,1-picrylhydrazyl) and FRAP(ferric reducing antioxidant power) assays. Butylated hydroxy toluene (BHT) was used as positive control. The results show that young leaves of E. camaldulensis provide essential oil (2-4%), while in adult leaves the oil percentage was (1-2%). The IC50 of volatile oil in young leaves for the DPPH and FRAP assays was (237.178 and 243.664 µg/ml) respectively while in adult leaves IC50 was not observed. IC50 of hydrosol in young leaves of DPPH and FRAP assays was higher as compared with control and adult leaves. The results also showed that the antioxidant activity of volatile oil and Hydrosol in adults leaves was more than in young leaves. The current study revealed the possibility of using this volatile oil and hydrosol as a natural antioxidants.

Background and Objectives: The study conducted involves reviewing the current scenario of antimicrobial resistance in the community by obtaining collected data from patients suffering from ongoing infective disorders andanalyzing their culture and sensitivity reports.Methods: We have collected the samples from 56 patients with infective disorders such as cellulitis, wound infection, pneumonia, cultured the samples and checked for the sensitivity of various different antibiotics using the disc diffusion methods according to CLSI standards. We have also checked for the morphology of the organism by routine microscopy using gram stain.Results: We have noted that the Gram-positive Cocci infections are more prevalent in our community settings and there was also a high level of resistance seen in both gram-negative and gram-positive organisms, towards the standard empirical antibiotic Cefotaxime used in such patients. Hence, we had to switch to a more effective antibiotic according to the patterns of resistance. The presence of resistance to other antibiotics was also noted.Interpretation & Conclusion: There is an increased level of resistance towards once considered highly effective broad-spectrum antibiotics in the community. This may be a result of inappropriate and overzealous usage of antibiotics by patients. This may be a result of improper supervision or no strict guidelines when it comes to the prescription of antibiotics. Hence many different strategies must be deployed in order to tackle the development of resistance to useful antibiotics
