The prevalence of vegetative-vascular (neuro-circulatory) dystonia of the hypertensive type in children has recently been observed. The so-called constitutional type of VVD can occur under hormonal changes; it also could be caused by central nervous system serious disorders, due to post-infectious diseases as well as addiction to alcohol and tonic drinks. The signs of VVD in adults and children are practically the same. The predominant symptom is vasoconstriction, whereby the body reacts with an increase in blood pressure. The aim of the study is to develop a set of rehabilitation methods using health aerobics classes for children aged 14–16 with hypertensive vegetative-vascular dystonia and to evaluate the effectiveness of a comprehensive physical rehabilitation program. The study involved 21 adolescent children. In the course of study there were applied empirical, sociological, clinical, instrumental and mathematical statistics research methods, that contributed to solving the problem through the development of an integrated program of physical rehabilitation for children aged 14–16 with hypertensive vegetative-vascular dystonia using recreational aerobics.

Authors: MORAIS EMANUEL MIGUEL , BEZERRA ANA LUISA DE ARAUJO , BRITO VITOR CAIAFFO
Published: November 2024

Universidades e outras instituições têm sofrido com a escassa disponibilidade de materiais que retratem, com verossimilhança, os tecidos humanos e outros componentes do arcabouço anatômico humano, algo que é explicado pela redução da doação de órgãos e pelos baixos incrementos financeiros para a aquisição de novos exemplares anatômicos. O uso de modelos anatômicos que possam representar as mais variadas estruturas humanas é imprescindível para o ensino e a compreensão da anatomia humana no ensino superior, em especial, nos cursos de saúde. Objetivos: Desenvolver modelos anatômicos com resina acrílica autopolimerizável e a viabilidade de sua aplicação em aulas de anatomia humana. Metodologia: Trata-se de um relato de experiência, de caráter descritivo, que apresenta a confecção de modelos anatômicos, bem como a sua aplicação durante o ensino da anatomia humana, como parte de um projeto de pesquisa vinculado ao Programa Institucional de Bolsas de Iniciação Científica (PIBIC) da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE). Para a elaboração dos materiais, foram utilizados modelos sintéticos já existentes no laboratório de anatomia do Núcleo de Ciências da Vida, Campus Agreste da UFPE. Foram empregados recipientes para a construção do molde, dispondo-se de água, alginato e da resina acrílica autopolimerizável, misturada com catalisador, além de tintas acrílicas e verniz para o acabamento das peças. Para a avaliação das peças, foram elaborados questionários para técnicos dos laboratórios de anatomia, docentes e discentes com a meta de analisar a qualidade, apresentação estética, reprodutibilidade, durabilidade e aplicabilidade dos materiais, esta etapa ainda está em processo de execução. Por tratar-se de uma pesquisa envolvendo seres humanos, a mesma obteve aprovação do Comitê de Ética e Pesquisa (CEP) da UFPE. Resultados: Foram confeccionadas peças voltadas para a neuroanatomia, com enfoque em estruturas externas ao encéfalo, como os lobos cerebrais, e internas, a exemplo do septo pelúcido, corpo caloso, tálamo e hipotálamo. As peças foram pintadas com cores variadas. Para a melhor compreensão dos discentes, foram desenvolvidas legendas com as cores correspondentes às regiões externas e internas do arcabouço encefálico. Conclusões: Em suma, acredita-se que por meio do presente projeto, poderão ocorrer maiores potencializações nas didáticas e no aprendizado da anatomia humana em sala de aula, uma vez que tais materiais podem ser implementados como uma ferramenta complementar ao estudo dos discentes, sobretudo em instituições de ensino superior que possuem limitações orçamentárias e estruturais. Nesse sentido, as peças confeccionadas com a resina acrílica possuem qualidades atreladas à durabilidade e resistência das mesmas, sendo crucial, a posteriori, a avaliação de docentes e discentes para o aprimoramento contínuo do projeto.

OBJECTIVE

The optimal management of neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2)–associated meningiomas must be personalized case by case. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is one option for patients with one or multiple intracranial meningiomas associated with the NF2 mutation. In this study, the authors evaluated their single-institution experience of SRS treatment for NF2-associated meningiomas.

METHODS

The medical records and radiographic images of 45 patients (20 males, 213 tumors) with a median age of 53.5 (range 20–79) years who underwent SRS between 1987 and 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. The median Karnofsky Performance Status score was 80 (range 50–100). Twenty-seven patients had undergone prior resection, and 8 had undergone prior fractionated radiation therapy. The median Ki-67 proliferation index (n = 8) was 11.5% (range 9%–27.5%). The median margin dose was 13 (range 9–16) Gy. The median number of meningiomas per patient was 3 (range 1–17), and the median cumulative tumor volume treated per patient was 6.29 (range 0.10–37.70) cm3.

RESULTS

The 5-, 10-, and 15-year local tumor control (LTC) rates per tumor were 90.21%, 84.46%, and 84.46%, respectively. On multivariate analysis, a lower tumor volume was associated with better LTC (p = 0.02; HR 1.07, 95% CI 1.01–1.12). After the initial SRS, 20 (44%) patients developed a previously untreated meningioma. Patients with more meningiomas at the time of SRS had a higher rate of new meningioma development (p = 0.01; HR 1.19, 95% CI 1.04–1.37). Eighteen patients died during the follow-up interval, of which 5 deaths were related to the progression of one or more intracranial NF2-related tumors. Two (4.44%) patients developed transient adverse radiation effects. No patient developed a secondary malignancy. Eight patients required additional SRS for local tumor progression, 20 underwent SRS for new tumor development, and 4 patients underwent delayed resection of an SRS-treated meningioma.

CONCLUSIONS

In this case series, the LTC rates of both primary and salvage SRS exceeded 90%. However, nearly half of the patients required additional SRS for new untreated meningiomas. No significant differences in long-term LTC were found when comparing upfront versus salvage SRS for patients with NF2 meningiomas. These results establish SRS as a valuable and safe option for managing NF2-associated meningiomas.

The quality of services provided by logistics providers has a direct impact on an organization's business. Organizations need to critically evaluate the performance of their LSPs and choose service providers rationally. LSPs understand the importance of service quality to their survival and growth and strive to provide high-quality services. PT Pos Logistik Indonesia (PLI) is a company that operates in the field of Logistics Delivery Services which can include documents, electronic products, logistics, and others.  PT Pos Logistik Indonesia (PLI) in Langsa City should have criteria as a logistics service provider to ensure customer satisfaction. This research aims to analyze these criteria through a survey collected from 120 Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) organizations in Langsa City that use the services of PT Pos Logistik Indonesia (PLI). Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are individual business entities or legal entities that have small initial capital, or a small value of wealth (assets) and a small (limited) number of employees. Questionnaire strategies were used to identify criteria selection-based sustainable logistics service quality (SLSQ) theoretical framework, that is sustainable transport elements, training, collaboration, sustainable packaging, and sustainable information. The explanatory factor analysis method was employed. The top three ranked criteria for evaluating logistics service provider criteria selection based on sustainable logistics service quality are the trained PLI employees, the sustainable packaging, and the commitment to environmental goals. Through this research, it confirms that sustainable logistics practices can bring value to PLI as LSPs and better improve their performance and customer satisfaction.

Published: November 2024

It is of utmost importance to control the blood supply in UTD PMI because if there is a requirement for blood, PMI can fulfill the necessary blood needs and keep the ideal blood availability. PMI UTD may encounter a shortfall of blood supply if increases in blood demand are not supported by an increase in the number of donors contributing blood. A forecast of the number of blood requests is essential to estimate the quantity of blood that is necessary and the number of blood donors that are required to be prepared to fulfill the needed blood requests. This study is a quantitative investigation that use the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) method in order to provide an accurate prediction regarding the quantity of blood that is required for each blood type in Pontianak City. UTD PMI Pontianak City provided the information that was used in this study. The information that was used included information on the number of blood requests for blood types A, AB, B, and O. Following this, the data was subjected to three iterative steps of Box Jenkins analysis, which included order identification, parameter estimation, and diagnostic testing. The goal was to obtain the most accurate model, which was then utilised to forecast the quantity of blood demand that will occur in the subsequent periods. Furthermore, the findings of this investigation indicate that the ARIMA (2,0,0), ARIMA (3,0,3), ARIMA (1,0,2), and ARIMA (1,0,0) models are the most accurate models for predicting the availability of blood categories A, AB, B, and O. ..UTD Pontianak City is anticipated to be able to manufacture bloodstock consisting of 73 blood bags over the next five days. The bloodstock will include 19 bags of Group A, 6 bags of Group AB, 22 bags of Group B, and 6 bags of Group O specifics. In light of the forecast results, it is envisaged that UTD PMI will be able to maximize inventory planning for blood in Pontianak City to reduce the number of instances in which there are shortages of blood availability.

Published: November 2024

The production of microorganisms that produce biologically active compounds for agriculture, the chemical, veterinary and pharmaceutical industries as well as for environmental protection continues to be an important direction of microbial biotechnology. One of the most effective approaches to the production of producers is chemical mutagenesis, which, in combination with the right breeding strategy, makes it possible to obtain highly productive strains. A significant disadvantage of chemical mutagenesis is the large number of induced mutations in the genomes of mutant strains, which makes it difficult to identify genes and, accordingly, biosynthetic pathways involved in the production of a given compound. The solution to this problem is modern technologies of genome sequencing and analysis, which make it possible to identify new genes and unknown biochemical pathways involved in the formation of biologically active compounds. The aim of the work was to analyse the genome of the mutant strain B-162/2 of the bacterium Pseudomonas chlororaphis subsp. aurantiaca, which is capable of increased production of biologically active compounds of the phenazine series and is resistant to hydrogen peroxide. When analysing the genome of strain B-162/2 in full size, 6482 coding sequences and 64 coding RNA sequences were identified. Comparison of the genome of the B-162/2 strain with the genome of the wild type B-162 allowed the identification of 39 mutations, 5 of which are localised in intergenic regions, and 34 affected coding sequences. Of the mutations detected, 14 led to a radical amino acid substitution in the proteins and 2 led to the formation of premature stop codons (methyl group sensor and MFS-type transporter). Several substitutions with high values of the Grantham coefficient were found, which could possibly lead to a change in the activity of the proteins concerned. The presence of three regions with phage genes in the genome of the B-162/2 strain was detected.
Technologies Overview for Typo Segregation
Authors: Skliarov Oleksandr , Zavolodko Ganna
Published: November 2024

The article focuses particularly on the difference between typos (accidental mechanical errors) and spelling or conceptual errors that arise from insufficient knowledge of language rules. Modern typo detection methods are analyzed, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of each. The Levenshtein method is one of the most common algorithms for detecting and correcting errors in text. It effectively identifies and corrects errors in short words where the number of operations to convert the erroneous word to the correct one is small. However, this method does not consider the context in which the word is used, which can lead to incorrect corrections. The keyboard layout-based typo detection method analyzes probable errors that can occur due to the proximity of keys on the keyboard. It is simple to implement and integrate into existing spell-checking systems but does not consider the context of word usage. The contextual analysis method for typo detection relies on using contextual information to identify and correct errors in text, requiring significant computational resources and a large, diverse corpus of texts for effective model training. Deep models, such as BERT or GPT, consider the context of entire sentences or even larger text blocks, allowing for high accuracy in typo detection but require significant computational resources for training and inference, as well as large volumes of high-quality data for training. Machine learning methods, such as n-grams and Bayesian classifiers, show significant potential due to their simplicity and efficiency but may not account for complex dependencies between words and context, reducing their accuracy. The study highlights the importance of accurate error detection in student assessment systems, where typos can affect final grades and the relevance of answers.

Polymorphism in wild South American potato Solanum chacoense for resistance to Colorado potato beetle Leptinotarsa decemlineata
Authors: Kirpicheva T. V. , Chalaya N. A. , Rogozina* E. V.
Published: November 2024

The Colorado potato beetle (CPB) – Leptonotarsa decemlineata is a dangerous potato pest in Russia. The creation of resistant varieties represents the most reliable method for protecting potatoes from this phytophage. A reliable phenotypic assessment of accessions stored in gene banks as seed collections is necessary before using wild potatoes as sources of resistance traits. Plants of nine accessions of S. chacoense (55 genotypes) from collection of the N.I. Vavilov All-Russian Institute of Plant Genetic Resources (VIR) were grown for three years on the experimental plot of VIR branch (Tambov region), where the environment is favorable for CPB. Annually seven parameters were recorded: the number of overwintered beetles per plant, the population of egg per plant, the number of older larvae per plant, the proportion of plants with more than 20 older larvae, the score of haulm damage, the proportion of plants with a high damage score and the number of second generation beetles. The origin of S. chacoense plants belonging to different accessions (“families”) in the VIR collection reliably affects their infestation and damaging by CPB. The influence of the “family” factor is 12–46 % depending on the assessed parameter. Solanum chacoense plants k-21854 are highly resistant and those of k-7394 are vulnerable to CPB. Plants in accessions k-2732, 2861, 3060, 19769, and 21848 were infested by the pest at different levels and varied in their individual damage parameters. Solanum chacoense genotypes k-19769 (542-3) and k-21854 (546-3) showed a high resistance to CPB during all three years of study.

Authors: Shatalova E. I.
Published: November 2024

This study investigated the feeding behavior of the generalist predator Nabis ferus (Heteroptera: Nabidae) toward various Aphididae species as prey in a laboratory setting. Data were obtained on the predatory behavior of N. ferus, including a ranking of the most preferred species for feed. Eight representatives of the Aphididae family were used as prey: Schizaphis graminum, Rhopalosiphum padi, Aphis fabae, Megoura viciae, Brevicoryne brassicae, Aphis pomi, Myzus cerasi and Aphis urticata. The average number of prey ranged from 11.2±1.18 in the case of bird cherry-oat aphid to 13.7±0.38 in case of the apple aphid. The consumption of M. viciae individuals was significantly lower, averaging 6.6±1.03 aphids per predator. These studies have implications for the biological control of phytophagous pests in agriculture. These findings highlight the potential of N. ferus as a sustainable and effective control agent to organic farming.
Through twilight to the light: a new sight of variability in codling moth behavioral reactions
Authors: Frolov* A. N. , Zakharova Y. A. , Malysh S. M.
Published: November 2024

The codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.) is the most dangerous pest of orchard crops in the world. The aim of the paper is to evaluate the attractiveness of low-power UV LEDs for the codling moth, including their interactions with the synthetic sex pheromone bait, under a highly variable level of natural illumination during the season at dusk in St. Petersburg as compared to the south of Russia. Traps of two designs (adhesive Delta and container funnel-shaped Unitrap) were placed in orchards located in town Pavlovsk (St. Petersburg) and farmstead Slobodka (Krasnodar Area). The LED efficiency was significantly different in these two locations: in the former, the moths were not attracted by UV, whereas in the latter, light trapping was quite active. A positive phototaxic reaction of moths in St. Petersburg was absent both during the White Nights and in the subsequent period, i.e. independently of illumination level at dusk. In both locations, no increase in the catch of codling moth adults with pheromone traps was recorded after they were supplemented with UV LEDs. Moreover, when Delta traps were used in Slobodka, a highly reliable antagonism of light vs pheromone bait was observed. The results are discussed using extensive literature data on insect phototaxis, codling moth behavior, its ecological plasticity and the ability to adapt to local habitats, which allows assessing the prospects for further research. In addition, an original algorithm is demonstrated for calculating the beginning and end of White Nights period for entomological objects which is of interest in terms of conducting research with insects at high latitudes.
Effect of temperature and density of Macrolophus pygmaeus (Heteroptera, Miridae) nymphs on their viability during mass rearing
Authors: Perova T. D. , Kozlova* E. G.
Published: November 2024

When Macrolophus pygmaeus nymphs were kept in large numbers while fed ad libitum on S. cerealella eggs in the presence of water and plant leaves, their survival was significantly lower at 20–22 °C, in comparison to 24–25 °C and 27–28 °C at all insect densities tested. Development was significantly longer at 20–22 °C. The yield of adults was significantly higher at 20–22 °C as well. The weight of the adults is defined by the sex and wasn’t dependent on temperature or nymph density. We associate the decrease in survival at 20–22 °C with cannibalism due to impaired water and food consumption, a decrease in daily weight gain (1.3 times in the case of water supply and 1.5 times in the case of both water and feed supply) and desynchronization of the physiological age of the nymphs. As a result of this desynchronization, the older individuals consumed those lagging behind in development. This resulted in equalized age composition, allowing for simultaneous emergence of adults, but decreased their number. Nymphal density reliably affected their survival at temperatures of 20–22 °C and 24–25 °C. However, despite the differences between the nymphal survival scores at the higher and lower densities were statistically significant, they were quite small. During mass breeding, they can be neglected in favor of a higher density of larvae, which allows for intensification of the production of the M. pygmaeus.

Published: November 2024

Corruption is a structural crime that is very dangerous for social life. Because this crime will destroy the social order system in various sectors. Starting from education, economics, law and others. Therefore, it is necessary to immediately resolve this problem using the right concept. Namely using the concept of Structural Legal Assistance which prioritizes community participation (non-litigation) to be fully involved in corruption eradication activities. Another thing that can be said is that this concept also does not rule out the concept (litigation) of taking action against corruption crimes. Apart from that, the use of the concept of Structural Legal Assistance in eradicating corruption often faces the risk of obstacles or obstacles in its implementation. So this is where the existence of maqashid sharia as a knife edge for analyzing the concept of structural legal assistance in eradicating corruption. This research uses a type of juridical-empirical research with a legislative approach, a case approach and a conceptual approach. Furthermore, to enrich the content of this research the author conducted interviews and observations at the YLBHI institution. Then supported by legal materials, journals and data documents related to this research. The results of this research are that maqashid sharia views the concept of structural legal assistance as highly recommended as a concept for eradicating corruption. Because this concept prioritizes recovery and development of the impact of corruption crimes.

Improving Solubility of Ketoprofen In Microparticle Form By Emulsification-Ionic-Gelation Method Using Polyvinylprrolidone (PVP) And Tripolyphosphate (TPP)
Ketoprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that has low solubility in water, thus inhibiting drug absorption into the body. This study aims to increase the solubility of ketoprofen using emulsification-ionic-gelation method with PVP as polymer and TPP as crosslinker. Microparticles were prepared using three formulas with variations in TPP pH (2, 4, and 6). Characterization was performed using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and solubility test using UV-Vis spectrophotometer. SEM results showed a gradual decrease in particle size from pH 2, 4, and 6. Solubility tests showed a two-fold increase in solubility compared to untreated ketoprofen, with the highest solubility at pH 6. The combination of PVP and TPP in the emulsification-ionic-gelation method effectively increased solubility.

Metallicities of both gas and stars decline toward large radii in spiral galaxies, a trend known as the radial metallicity gradient. We quantify the evolution of the metallicity gradient in the Milky Way as traced by APOGEE red giants with age estimates from machine learning algorithms. Stars up to ages of \(\sim\)9 Gyr follow a similar relation between metallicity and Galactocentric radius. This constancy challenges current models of Galactic chemical evolution, which typically predict lower metallicities for older stellar populations. Our results favor an _equilibrium scenario_, in which the gas-phase gradient reaches a nearly constant normalization early in the disk lifetime. Using a fiducial choice of parameters, we demonstrate that one possible origin of this behavior is an outflow that more readily ejects gas from the interstellar medium with increasing Galactocentric radius. A direct effect of the outflow is that baryons do not remain in the interstellar medium for long, which causes the ratio of star formation to accretion, \({\dot{\Sigma}}_* / {\dot{\Sigma}}_{\rm in}\), to quickly become constant. This ratio is closely related to the local equilibrium metallicity, since its numerator and denominator set the rates of metal production by stars and hydrogen gained through accretion, respectively. Building in a merger event results in a perturbation that evolves back toward the equilibrium state on \(\sim\)Gyr timescales. Under the equilibrium scenario, the radial metallicity gradient is not a consequence of the inside-out growth of the disk but instead reflects a trend of declining \({\dot{\Sigma}}_* / {\dot{\Sigma}}_{\rm in}\) with increasing Galactocentric radius.

Authors: Gilles-Noguès Eléonor , Cruz Germano Vera , Megalakaki Olga
Published: November 2024

Recent report suggests that the French public school system is struggling to provide sufficient content to the students both in terms of quantity and quality. Since the French formal education system does not seem to provide adequate sexual and emotional life education, the present study’s objective is to identify and examine the processes underlying their learning of sexuality and intimate relations by focusing on three main topics: the sources of education, the first sexual experience, and the consent communication occurring during these moments. A qualitative method inspired by Interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) was used to conduct and analyze 14 interviews with young adults (23-28 years-old). The current study’s main findings indicate that participants educated themselves mostly through interactions with peers and media consumption. As for their first sexual intercourses, the study showed two distinct patterns according to the participants’ relationship status: those engaged in a committed relationships generally followed a step-by-step process over several months while the single ones’ first sexual experience occurred over one specific intercourse, often with a partner met the same day. At the time of the first sexual experiences, consent communication was operated through non-verbal and implicit cues essentially at that time; however, following Me Too social activism movement, most participant reported that now they feel the need to receive and communicate consent in a more explicit way. The participant’s discourse suggests that the formal sex education in France needs to be improved to fit the younger generation’s needs.

Skintific_ID's skincare marketing has utilized viral marketing and influencer marketing strategies through the social media platform TikTok. Despite achieving second place in market share, Skintific_ID continues to face stiff competition from its main competitor, Somethinc. To address this gap, this research focuses on viral marketing and influencer marketing strategies. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of viral marketing and influencer marketing on the purchase intention of the @skintific_id TikTok account. The research method used is a quantitative method with a causal associative research design. The sample consisted of 100 respondents selected through purposive sampling. The results showed that viral marketing and influencer marketing together have a significant effect on purchase intention. However, when considered individually, only influencer marketing has a significant effect on purchase intention, while viral marketing has no significant effect. To improve the marketing strategy, Skintific is advised to improve the content on the @skintific_id TikTok account with creative and informative videos and provide updated training to the marketing team on viral and influencer marketing strategies. In addition, they should select influencers that align with the company's vision and expand promotion to other platforms such as Instagram and YouTube

The objective of this study is to analyze the effects of entrepreneurship education on students' attitudes, social norms, and perceived behavioral control, and how these elements impact entrepreneurial intentions using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) model. University students enrolled in entrepreneurship programs in Bandung, Indonesia, were surveyed. The study employed Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) using Smart PLS software to test the theoretical model. The study confirms that entrepreneurship education positively impacts students' attitudes (H1), social acceptance (H2), and perceived control (H3) toward entrepreneurial careers. However, attitude and social acceptance do not significantly affect entrepreneurial intention (H4 & H5), while perceived control strongly enhances entrepreneurial intention (H6). The impact of entrepreneurship education on intention is indirect, with social acceptance and perceived control serving as effective mediators (H9, H10), while attitude does not mediate this relationship (H8). The study concludes that entrepreneurship education fosters entrepreneurial ambition indirectly through perceived behavioral control and social acceptance. Universities and policymakers should focus on improving both the social and practical aspects of entrepreneurial education to enhance students' entrepreneurial aspirations

This research aims to explore the relationships between social support, academic expectations, and depression regarding suicidal intention among youth in Malaysia, India, and Indonesia. Given the rising concern over youth mental health in these regions, a quantitative approach was employed, utilizing an online questionnaire distributed via Google Forms to gather data from 150 participants. The findings indicate that both academic expectations and depression positively correlate with suicidal intentions, highlighting the significant emotional distress caused by high academic pressures. Conversely, the study revealed that social support negatively correlates with suicidal intention among youth, suggesting that stronger social networks may mitigate these risks. This study contributes to a limited body of research on suicidal ideation in Malaysian, Indian, and Indonesian youth, providing valuable insights into how social support, academic expectations, and depression interplay in influencing suicidal thoughts and behaviors. The results highlight the need for targeted mental health interventions that address the challenges youth face, raising awareness of the harmful effects of academic stress and the value of supportive relationships

The emergence of influencer marketing in developing countries has been facilitated by Generation Z's use of social media. This study's goal is to discover how influencer marketing will affect Gen Z consumers' purchasing intentions in Indonesia, Malaysia, India, and Nigeria. In this study, the data were examined utilizing descriptive, reliability, correlation, and regression analysis employing quantitative research and IBM SPSS Statistics 26. The data collection method was carried out online with a group of 150 individuals from the Gen Z demographic participating. The study highlights that perceived influencer credibility, product-influencer relevance, perceived expertise, and trustworthiness significantly impact Gen Z's purchasing intentions in Indonesia, Malaysia, India, and Nigeria. Authentic, credible influencers who align with a brand's image strengthen consumer trust and purchase intent. Marketers should prioritize collaborations with influencers known for genuine, relatable, and expert content, fostering deeper engagement and brand loyalty. While peers' reviews showed less impact, further research could explore Gen Z's evolving approach to social proof

Learning disabilities affect a significant number of students, often going undiagnosed until academic struggles become evident. Early identification and personalized interventions are crucial for improving educational outcomes, yet traditional assessment methods can be time-consuming and inconsistent. This research explores the potential of machine learning (ML) to detect learning disabilities such as dyslexia, ADHD, and dysgraphia by analysing student performance, cognitive abilities, and behavioural data. We implemented various ML models to predict the likelihood of these disabilities, comparing their performance based on accuracy, precision, and recall. Our findings highlight the effectiveness of ML in early detection and demonstrate how identified disabilities can inform tailored educational support, ultimately creating a more inclusive learning environment. This research emphasizes the transformative potential of ML in enhancing diagnostic accuracy and facilitating personalized interventions, leading to better outcomes for students with disabilities.
