Authors: Meléndez Maryuri , Escalona Evelin , Ron Misael
Published: January 2025

Introduction: Understanding the physical and mental state of operational personnel in the electrical sector was essential to ensure health and prevent workplace accidents. This research analyzed the relationship between mental fatigue and cognitive functions in energized line workers of electric companies in Aragua state, Venezuela. Methods: The study was developed under the positivist paradigm with a quantitative approach, non-experimental, descriptive, field-based, and cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of twelve workers assigned to energized line departments. Data collection was conducted through observation, photographic records, sociodemographic survey, Montreal Cognitive Assessment Test version 8.1 (MoCA), and Subjective Fatigue Patterns Test (PSF). Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to analyze the relationship between variables. Results: The results showed a low inverse correlation, suggesting that increased fatigue levels could be associated with a decrease in cognitive function values. Conclusions: A moderately low and non-significant statistical correlation was concluded, suggesting the need for future research with larger sample sizes and validation of other variables such as age, educational level, experience, as well as specific analysis of the Montreal Cognitive Test variables.

Climate change, environmental stresses, and evolving pathogens pose major threats to global food security. Developing resilient crops with robust defense mechanisms is crucial to ensure sustainable agricultural production in the face of these challenges. CRISPR-based genome editing has emerged as a powerful tool for precisely modifying plant genes to enhance stress tolerance and disease resistance. This review explores recent advancements in CRISPR-mediated modification of defense-related genes in major crops. We discuss the targeting of key defense pathways, such as the salicylic acid and jasmonic acid signaling networks, to boost plant immunity against pathogens. Additionally, we highlight strategies for enhancing abiotic stress tolerance by modifying genes involved in antioxidant systems, osmotic regulation, and heat shock proteins. The potential of multiplex gene editing for simultaneously targeting multiple defense traits is also examined. Furthermore, we address the challenges and future prospects of translating CRISPR-engineered crops from the laboratory to the field, including regulatory considerations and public acceptance. By harnessing the precision and versatility of CRISPR technology, we can develop climate-resilient crops with fortified defense systems, contributing to a more secure and sustainable food future.

Authors: R. R. Shinde , A. B. Pardeshi
Published: January 2025

The Indian white termite (Odontotermes obesus), a polyphagous pest known for its damage to construction materials, forest products, and food crops, was used to assess the termiticidal effects of ethanol and aqueous leaf extracts of Solanum xanthocarpum. The plant leaves were dried, powdered, and extracted using ethanol and aqueous solvents in a Soxhlet apparatus for 24 hours. Twenty termites were exposed to various concentrations of ethanol (200, 250, 300, 350, and 400 ppm) and aqueous extracts (300, 350, 400, 450, and 500 ppm). The percentage mortality was recorded after 24 hours. The termiticidal activity of the ethanol extract showed LD10 = 199.53 ppm, LD50 = 300.61 ppm, and LD90 = 398.11 ppm, while the aqueous extract showed LD10 = 309.03 ppm, LD50 = 402.90 ppm, and LD90 = 501.19 ppm. These findings suggest that Solanum xanthocarpum may be a viable natural source for developing eco-friendly termite control agents.

Advances in lopinavir formulations: strategies to overcome solubility, bioavailability, and stability challenges
Authors: SINGIREDDY ANAND REDDY , Pedireddi Sobitha Rani
Published: January 2025

Lopinavir, a key protease inhibitor in antiretroviral therapy, faces significant challenges related to its poor solubility, low bioavailability, and low  stability, which limit its therapeutic efficacy. This review explores a range of advanced formulation strategies developed to overcome these limitations, enhancing lopinavir’s delivery and effectiveness. Nanoparticle-based systems such as solid lipid nanoparticles, nanostructured lipid carriers, and lipid-polymer hybrid systems demonstrate notable improvements in bioavailability, drug release, and lymphatic targeting. Additionally, solid dosage formulations like amorphous solid dispersions and proliposomes have been shown to significantly enhance solubility and stability, improving lopinavir’s pharmacokinetic profile. By reviewing the preparation techniques, in vivo results, and comparative advantages of these innovative delivery systems, this article provides insight into their potential to optimize lopinavir-based therapies. Furthermore, the review discusses the role of these strategies in addressing adherence issues, ultimately improving patient outcomes. Continued research into the novel approaches is essential for advancing lopinavir delivery and enhancing its clinical efficacy in the treatment of HIV.
Sun protection properties and photostability of aqueous extracts of dandelion (Taraxacum officinale L.).
Authors: Akatyev Nikolay , Samigolla Albina
Published: January 2025

The aim of this study was to determine the sun protection properties and photostability of aqueous extracts of Taraxacum officinale L. growing locally in the West Kazakhstan region. These properties were examined using UV-Vis spectroscopy, and the relevant metrics were calculated using the Mansur equation. Qualitative phytochemical screening revealed the presence of both primary and secondary metabolites in extracts obtained from the whole plant and its parts. The phenolic compounds present in extracts mainly contributed to the absorption of UV rays in the wavelength range of 280–400 nm. Six-week experiments allowed the detection of significant photostability of most of the extracts studied, up to 86.8% for leaf-derived extracts. It was observed that the first few days of exposure caused the greatest loss of sun protection properties of the extracts. It was also confirmed that the concentration of the extracts has a direct influence on the sun protection properties of the aqueous extracts from the roots, leaves, inflorescences, and the whole plant of T. officinale. The study found that the sun protection properties of T. officinale aqueous extracts are comparable to the same properties of dibenzalacetone, a synthetic ingredient commonly found in modern sunscreens. In addition, both the plant parts and the concentration of the extract were found to determine the tested extracts' photostability and sensitivity to direct sunlight.
A cinematografica híbrida de Kmêdeus:
Authors: Secco Carmen Tindó
Published: January 2025

Este artigo pretende analisar o filme Kmêdeus, do cineasta cabo-verdiano Nuno Miranda, a partir de reflexões acerca do sincretismo cultural característico de Cabo Verde e, também, da correspondência das artes recorrentes na narrativa fílmica. A intertextualidade – entre dança, música, coreografia, pintura, literatura e cinema – discute, crítica e artisticamente, a história de cabo-verdiana, ao mesmo tempo que aponta para a resistência cultural dessas ilhas atlânticas. O filme, a partir do diálogo interartístico e das ações do protagonista, um artista popular considerado “lunático” por grande parte da sociedade da cidade de Mindelo, capital da ilha cabo-verdiana de São Vicente, põe em questão o conceito de “loucura” e as heranças coloniais que ainda subsistem na história de Cabo Verde.
A Angola que o romance contemporâneo nos permite ouvir:
Authors: Rodrigues Adriana Cristina Aguiar
Published: January 2025

Partindo de pesquisa desenvolvida durante o doutorado, aproprio-me, neste artigo, da obra de Ondjaki, notadamente Os transparentes, para desenvolver em torno dela uma leitura crítica pós-colonial. O romance, lançado em Portugal em 2012, pela Editora Caminho, e no Brasil, em 2013, pela editora Companhia das Letras, tem como pano de fundo uma Luanda pós-independente, pós-guerra civil e pós-socialista, assinalada pelas ruínas coloniais (Stoler, 2016), pela exploração desenfreada de recursos naturais, pela precarização do acesso à moradia, ao saneamento básico e a outros direitos fundamentais de classes socioeconômicas mais vulneráveis, que bem poderiam ser designadas como subcidadãs (Mamdani, 1998). Entrecortando essa temática mais aparente, a narrativa de Ondjaki contempla outros temas sensíveis que caracterizam o cenário político e cultural pós-independência, como a violência sistemática, o ataque à diversidade de vozes e ideologias, culminando no esgarçamento do projeto político democrático utópico pré-independência – como já alertava o narrador de A geração da utopia, de Pepetela. Assim, interesso-me, nesta análise, pelas personagens (secundárias) que modulam a relação entre voz e silenciamento, cidadania e subcidadania, a fim de refletir criticamente sobre a Angola que a literatura contemporânea nos que fazer ver e ouvir.
O entrelaçar entre Brasil e Cabo Verde:
Authors: Diniz Mary Cristina Rodrigues , Oliveira Rita de Cássia
Published: January 2025

Este estudo visa evidenciar o pensamento afropolitano presente nos versos do poema Você, Brasil, de Jorge Barbosa (1956), tendo em vista as relações, por vezes, de semelhanças entre Brasil e Cabo Verde, país africano que, assim como os demais países do continente, obteve sua independência proclamada tardiamente. Tal situação refletiu no processo artístico e cultural do continente que buscou sua identidade e corrente filosófica de modo a se desprender da Europa. Esta pesquisa, calcada em análises bibliográficas, traz como aporte teórico, além de Mbembe (2015), Monteiro (2020) que explicam a existência de uma filosofia diferente da filosofia de centro ou colonial de dominação e apontam o resgate de uma identidade roubada e uma identidade em construção, que, em relação ao poema caboverdiano, propõe uma reflexão acerca de uma aproximação entre países focos de exploração do período colonial, como Brasil e Cabo Verde bem como a países colonizadores como Portugal, apresentando marcadamente relações culturais, o que leva a abordagem teórica de Laranjeira (1985) e Santos (1989) que discutem acerca da literatura caboverdiana, desenvolvida e cercada por aspectos europeus, assim como a brasileira, sendo que a literatura brasileira buscou sua liberdade de pensamento, de um tecer literário, apresentando a realidade do seu povo. Este trabalho ainda busca a contribuição de estudos sobre a temática e reportagens que, assim como a corrente filosófica afropolitana, ajudaram na compreensão desse emaranhado cultural.
Paisagens crítico-marítimas desiguais:
Authors: Brugioni Elena
Published: January 2025

O Oceano Índico tem sido definido e abordado como um paradigma crítico e literário transnacional para a construção de cartografias comparativas  e multilíngue para o estudo das literaturas africanas (Hofmeyr, 2007). A pesquisa no campo dos estudos literários do Oceano Índico tem se destacado por sua ambição crítica e ousadia teórica na definição de novos conceitos e corpus, delineando definições originais para formas estéticas e literárias do mundo do Oceano Índico (Samuelson, 2017). Analisando o estado da arte deste debate, algumas questões podem ser levantadas: até que ponto o mundo literário do Índico é capaz de responder aos problemas e pontos cegos que caracterizam o campo dos estudos literários, hoje? Como observar (ou não) a estética e as formas literárias do Oceano Índico como registro paradigmático do sistema literário mundial? Este capítulo pretende ensaiar parcialmente as respostas a estas questões, abordando o Oceano Índico como uma paisagem marítima literária desigual e, por isso, esforçando-se por delinear uma seleção de formas literárias que apontem para a sua (re)composição material.
Determination of MCR-1 Gene and Antibiotic-Resistant Escherichia coli Isolates from Clinical and Non-clinical Samples
Authors: Effatpanah Hosein , Safari Nasim , Seid Mohammadi Abdolmotaleb
Published: January 2025

Background: In recent years, resistant infections and antibiotic resistance in livestock have been increasing, and it seems that these issues will cause more problems in the future. Objectives: This study investigates the association between the pattern of Escherichia coli antibiotic resistance (ECAR) and the identification of the mobilized colistin resistance (mcr-1 gene) among clinical and non-clinical samples. Methods: In this study, 265 samples were collected from clinical (human urine, N = 79) and non-clinical sources (animal feces from poultry and livestock farms, N = 186). All samples were processed, and E. coli bacteria were isolated and identified. The agar dilution method was used to evaluate colistin resistance, and the presence of the mcr-1 gene was characterized among E. coli isolates. Results: Out of 265 samples (clinical and fecal), 37.97% (30/79) of clinical samples and 37.63% (70/186) of animal feces showed growth of E. coli. The highest number of E. coli isolates was found in feces from livestock farms (71.48%; 50/70). Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) of E. coli isolated from clinical samples showed that the highest resistance (46.66%) was to ciprofloxacin, and the lowest resistance (16.66%) was to colistin. Analysis of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) data also showed that 60% of colistin-resistant isolates from clinical urine samples and 70% from animal feces samples were positive for the plasmid-mediated mcr-1 gene. Conclusions: The findings indicate that the high frequency of the mcr-1 gene among both clinical and animal-collected isolates may be a significant factor in the development of colistin resistance among circulating E. coli isolates.
La matemática subyacente en la teología, la filosofía y la cultura Veda (bajo enfoque etnomatemático).

La teología permite entender los textos de los Vedas ( a principios del primer milenio ane), a la vez que la religión brahmánica, necesarios para explicar el manejo aritmético, geométrico y trigonométrico, la convergencia ocurre en la confección de los altares se edifican con precisión matemática, lo cual impulsa el desarrollo de las habilidades numéricas entre los sacerdotes brahmanes quienes buscan la "verdad celestial" y una comprensión profunda de Atman,  o el yo espiritual. Este proceso interdisciplinario combinaba historia, sociología, antropología y filosofía, avanzando de la especialización a la complejidad. Hacia el final del periodo védico, la verdad espiritual comenzó a ser accesible para todos, no solo para los sacerdotes, lo cual fue criticado por el budismo en el siglo V ane. Así la verdad se revela en la mente humana.

Published: January 2025

The National Driver Offender Retraining Scheme (NDORS) comprises behaviour change courses offered to road traffic offenders instead of prosecution. This report presents an evaluation of the majority of these courses, to establish whether they changed behaviour, how long any change was maintained, what psychological mechanisms bring about the change, barriers to change experienced by attendees, and how the courses could be improved. Self-reported survey data on underlying attitudes and behaviours was collected before and after courses. Interviews and focus groups were used to gather detailed feedback from attendees.

Survey data was only usable for the National Speed Awareness Course due to low sample size mainly caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. It showed improved attitudes to speed and knowledge of limits, better engagement with road safety, and fewer hazardous driving events after course attendance. Some specific changes in self-reported speed choice were also observed suggesting specific information from the course was retained and used. These changes were retained two months after the course.

Attendees across all courses evaluated noted that trainers were very important in achieving change, as were the specific tips provided to help them identify specific triggers to offending when driving. Attendees were pleasantly surprised that the tone of the courses was not 'judgemental' and this approach helped people to move their self-image from someone who had been 'caught out' to someone who could benefit from challenging their driving behaviour.

Overall, the findings suggest that the courses are having a positive impact on the behaviours they target and are working through a range of mechanisms to produce this. While the quantity and form of data collected varies across courses, there are consistent findings of positive impact. Several potential improvements to courses are also suggested.

Systematic Sentiment Risk & Market Liquidity: Systematic Liquidity Pricing in Light of the Microblogging Content
Authors: Saleemi Jawad
Published: January 2025

Investors are keenly interested in the risk of informed trading, as it can have an immediate impact on transaction costs imposed by liquidity providers. This paper examines microblogging-based informed trading as a systematic risk for liquidity at both market and firm levels. Assets at firm level were categorized into financial and non-financial perspective. In this context, the study constructed a bank index and non-financial firms (NFF) index within the broader market. In a relative market, the liquidity was priced pessimistically and a higher probability for appearance of spread was noted during pessimism environments. The bank index liquidity was significantly responsive towards systematic bearish and bullish sentiments. In addition, the posterior probability of systematic sentiment risk was considerably higher for bank assets’ liquidity. The NFF index liquidity was not exposed to the systematic bearish and bullish sentiments. Meantime, the posterior probability of systematic sentiment risk was considerably lower for non-financial assets’ liquidity. The relative market’s liquidity was not influenced by changes in past series of bearish and bullish sentiments. Similarly, the sentiments’ lags were not strong enough to impact the firm index liquidity in the short or long run.

Published: January 2025

We investigate the impact of strategic alliances on corporate green innovation by collecting and collating announcements of Chinese A-share listed enterprises related to their participation in strategic alliances from 2007 to 2022, and yields three main findings: Strategic alliances significantly improve corporate green innovation, and it contributes more to symbolic green innovation than to substantive green innovation, using the proportion of other enterprises in the same industry and same province that participated in strategic alliances in the previous year as an instrumental variable, we find that this positive impact is likely to be causal. Mechanism analysis indicates that public attention and productivity play an important moderating role in this process. The research results also show that the impact of strategic alliances on corporate green innovation is heterogeneous in terms of industry competitiveness, enterprise categories and strategic alliances types. Our research sheds mechanisms of strategic alliances on corporate green innovation, and provides a theoretical reference for enterprises to improve their green innovation level and enhance their core competitiveness.

This research aims to examine the use of the Muro'at al-Nazhir concept in the science of balaghah which is applied to Surah Ar-Rahman in the Al-Qur'an. Muro'at al-Nazhir is a rhetorical technique that emphasizes harmony in meaning, sound, structure, and even contrast of meaning in a text, thereby creating beauty and strengthening the message. Through a text analysis approach, this research identifies various forms of Muro'at al-Nazhir contained in Surah Ar-Rahman, including sound harmony through the repetition of the phrase "فَبِأَيِّ آلَاءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ" 31 times , harmony of meaning that describes the greatness of Allah and His blessings , harmony of structure through verses that have similar patterns, as well as harmony of opposing meanings that show the contrast between heaven and hell, as well as the creation of humans and jinn from different elements. The research results show that the use of Muro'at al-Nazhir in Surah Ar-Rahman not only adds to the beauty of the language, but also strengthens the spiritual meaning and messages of faith that are conveyed to humans and jinn. It is hoped that this study can deepen understanding of the art of balaghah in the Koran and inspire further study of rhetoric in this Islamic holy book.

O presente artigo compõe uma discussão teórica estabelecida nos estudos sobre educação e cidadania, objetivando refletir sobre o currículo e educação do campo, com vista na formação do homem campesino, no que se trata aos povos quilombolas, considerando a necessidade de apontar e analisar as conquistas de direitos adquiridos. Fundamentada em uma revisão bibliográfica e documental, onde o estudo foi ancorado com a cooperação de autores contemporâneos, tais como: Arroyo e Fernandes (1999), Caldart (2012-2008), Costa e Coelho (2022), Eça e Coelho (2021), Munanga (1996), Pinho (2017), Saviani (2016). Os estudos analisados demonstram uma atuação ativa dos povos tradicionais na conquista dos direitos educacionais por meio das políticas públicas, possibilitando assegurar o reconhecimento enquanto partícipe da sociedade brasileira. A pesquisa também revelou que a ação política, comungado ao coletivo, viabiliza a mobilização dos agentes envolvidos para o alcance do sucesso escolar do homem do campo brasileiro, proporcionando aos estudantes o contato com a educação formal, sem desprezar a cultura local. No entanto, os estudos apontaram que ainda precisa avançar significativamente para o alcance de um currículo que faça a escola cumprir o seu papel social, com vista na valorização do “saber local” desses estudantes. Sendo assim, os resultados serão fundamentais para demonstrar o que vem sendo construído e o que necessita melhorar com relação as políticas públicas para o alcance de uma educação igualitária e eficiente para o povo do campo (quilombola).
Three-alternative forced-choice method (3AFC) for tinnitus matching and digital frequency customized relieving sound (DFCRS) generation strategy for tinnitus management

Tinnitus is the perception of sounds without any corresponding external stimulus exists, and it is one of the most common hearing disorders. Currently, there are no objective tests for tinnitus, and thus its detection relies on the subjective reports of patients. Here, we introduce a novel three-alternative forced-choice method (3AFC) for tinnitus pitch and loudness matching. Then, we modulate the soothing music by increasing the sound intensity of two 1/3 octave bands above and below the tinnitus frequency according to a specific algorithm to generate digital frequency customized relieving sound (DFCRS) for tinnitus management. Due to the relatively large frequency interval and more frequency characteristics, the 3AFC method can significantly shorten the time required for psychoacoustic measures of tinnitus and improve the efficiency and satisfaction of subjective tinnitus tests. Based on the matched tinnitus frequency, we created a personalized treatment plan for tinnitus patients using real-time modulation of soft music. We recruited total 32 participants who listened to the modulated music (DFCRS) or the unmodulated music (served as control) for at least 2 h a day for three months, following brief instructions from audiologists. Of these, the participants who received DFCRS experienced more reduced negative impacts of tinnitus and an improved quality of life compared to those in the control group, as measured by various scales. Our patented system seamlessly integrates tinnitus assessment and treatment, offering substantial savings in medical and audiological expenses.

This paper takes destination information coverage, richness of evaluation content and construction of marketing image as independent variables, cognitive involvement and behavioral involvement as mediating variables, and tourism destination impression as dependent variables. This paper systematically discusses the multi-dimensional and multi-level relationships among destination information coverage, richness of evaluation content, construction of marketing image, cognitive involvement, behavioral involvement and tourism destination impression. This study provides theoretical support for the marketing strategies of emerging tourist destinations and emphasizes the importance of social image and consumer involvement in shaping the impression of tourist destinations. The research suggests that tourism managers should make full use of social imagery and emotional marketing strategies to enhance consumers' involvement, so as to enhance the market competitiveness and attractiveness of destinations.
