Decreased Insulin and Interleukin-6 Levels in Rattus Norvegicus Model of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome-Insulin Resistance Treated with a High Protein Diet
Authors: Zerly Agrisidan  , Puspita Hany Aryani , Sari Wahyu Anjas
Published: October 2024

Hypercaloric in women of childbearing age is one of the causes of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) with insulin resistance. Increased inflammation (tumor factor necrosis-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6)) is the impact of endocrine and metabolic disorders involved due to metabolic syndrome, obesity, and diabetes mellitus. This study aims to evaluate whether a high-protein diet can reduce insulin and interleukin-6 levels, which are key indicators of polycystic ovary syndrome, and whether these changes can help in the treatment of the syndrome. This study used a prepost test only control design, true experimental, with a total sample of 6 female Rattus norvegicus rats aged 2–3 years (150–200 g). It consists of 4 groups, namely the negative control group (K-), the positive control group (K+), the treatment group (P), and the group without treatment (P-). The study examined the rat blood serum ELISA measurement of insulin and IL-6 levels. Anova test results of IL-6 levels (p = 0.002). Post-hoc test results of group K- and group P (p = 0.002), group K + and group P (p = 0.037), group K- and group K + (p = 0.437). The Anova test results of insulin levels between groups found a significant difference (p = 0.001). Post-hoc test of insulin levels of group K- and group P (p = 0.002), group K- and group K+ (p = 0.000), and group K+ with group P (p = 0.356). In group K and group P, the results of the ANOVA and post hoc tests on IL-6 levels and insulin levels with the provision of a high-protein diet show significant differences. This study suggests that a high-protein diet may be an effective therapeutic alternative in reducing the symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome, especially in controlling high insulin and interleukin-6 levels.

Authors: Sajwani Fatma H. , Gopakumar Aji
Published: October 2024

Background: Blood donation was among the most severely disrupted service during the COVID-19 pandemic, and different measures were taken nationally and internationally to mitigate the impact of the pandemic on donation services. Aim: To compare blood donation before, during and after the pandemic and the effectiveness of efforts to mitigate the effects of COVID-19 on donation services. Methods: This retrospective, observational, population-based study assessed the number and locations of blood donations, number of blood and platelet units issued to hospitals, and characteristics of 82 619 blood donors at the reference blood donation facility in United Arab Emirates in 2019 and 2020. Service recovery was assessed by comparing blood donation in 2021 and 2022 with 2019. The data were analysed using SPSS version 26 and the extent of the effect of COVID-19 on the measured parameters was tested using Pearson’s χ2 test. P ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: COVID-19 significantly affected the number of donors, location of blood donations, and quantities of blood and platelets issued to hospitals. Median annual number of donors was 19 121 males and 1393 females. In 2020, male donors increased by 1.6%, while female donors decreased by 22.3%. The number of donors decrease to 18 977 in 2020 from 19 035 in 2019 and increased to 22 542 in 2021 and 22 065 in 2022. Whole blood collections decreased by 0.3% in 2020 and increased by 18.0% in 2021 and 13.6% in 2022. Conclusion: Proactive measures, good infrastructure, flexibility, emergency planning, community awareness, good communication between stakeholders, and close coordination among national authorities are needed to effectively manage blood donation centres during crisis.

Published: October 2024

Background: Child abuse and neglect pose significant public health challenges, contributing to compromised development and adverse health outcomes. Neglect is the most frequent type of child abuse, presenting substantial challenges for paediatricians. Aims: To identify types of neglect associated with poisoned children, analyse potential risk factors and develop a novel severity scoring system to assess child neglect in Alexandria, Egypt. Methods: Using a simple random sampling technique, with an observational checklist we collected data on children aged 2 months to 17 years admitted for poisoning at the poison centre of Alexandria Main University Hospital from October to December 2022. We analysed the data using SPSS version 20.0 and tested the associations between neglect score and child data, current condition and carer data using the χ2 test, the Monte Carlo simulation and Fisher’s exact P. Results: The study enrolled 147 children, male-to-female ratio 1:1.17. Pesticides were the most common cause of poisoning. Lack of supervision was noted in 83% of cases and the neglect severity score showed that 27.9% of the children experienced severe neglect. There was significant association between severity of neglect and caregiver’s education level and between severity of neglect and child’s residence; severe neglect cases were significantly higher among children whose caregivers had no formal education (70.7%) and among those from rural areas (61%). Conclusion: These findings highlight the critical need to address educational disparities among caregivers and improve supervision for children, especially in rural areas.
АКЦИЗЫ НА ТАБАЧНЫЕ ИЗДЕЛИЯ И ИХ ВЛИЯНИЕ НА ПОТРЕБЛЕНИЕ: АНАЛИЗ МЕЖДУНАРОДНЫХ ДАННЫХ И ПРОГНОЗЫ ДЛЯ РОССИИ В КОНТЕКСТЕ МИРОВОЙ ЭКОНОМИКИ

В данной статье рассматриваются потребление табачной продукции и влияние акцизного обложения на ее потребление на территории РФ. В ходе подготовки статьи был использован метод анкетирования, статистического анализа экономических показателей. В результате анализа потребления табачной продукции мужчинами и женщинами РФ и уровня акцизного налогообложения были сделаны выводы о высокой степени влияния акцизов на снижение потребления табачных изделий. Проведенный анализ зарубежного опыта в борьбе с табакокурением с помощью акцизов показал, что потребительская способность и уровень акцизов на табачную продукцию имеют линейную положительную корреляцию. В то же время возможна ситуация, когда повышение акцизного обложения табачной продукции будет способствовать развитию нелегального рынка данной продукции, что может пагубно сказаться на экономике государства. Полученный в статье анализ отечественного акцизного обложения и зарубежного опыта позволяет сделать вывод о необходимости повышения уровня акцизов на табачные изделия с целью снижения уровня его потребления с одновременным ужесточением контроля производства и ввоза табачной продукции.

As nascentes desempenham um dos principais papéis para a manutenção do ciclo hidrológico. Nesse sentido, a presente pesquisa teve como objetivo avaliar o impacto ambiental nas quatro nascentes do Rio Castanhal, localizado no município de Castanhal, Estado do Pará por meio do Índice de Impacto Ambiental em Nascentes (IIAN) e do Índice de Qualidade da Água (IQA). Os resultados obtidos por meio do IIAN, demostraram que apenas a nascente N1 possui classificação como boa, enquanto as nascentes N2, N3 e N4 obtiveram classificação D – ruim, isso ocorreu devido aos parâmetros cor e odor apresentarem peso 2 para as nascentes da classe D e peso 3 para a nascente N1. Com relação ao IQA foi constatado que as nascentes N1 e N4 possuíram IQA igual a 64 e 52 respectivamente, dentro dos limites da classe boa, enquanto as nascentes N2 e N3 obtiveram IQA igual a 39 e 51, nessa ordem, assim se enquadraram na classe razoável, essa diferença de classes ocorreu principalmente pela alteração no parâmetro de pH e OD. Assim, constatou-se que a nascente N2 apresenta maior grau de impacto ambiental quando comparada as demais nascentes. Dessa forma, para que os impactos sejam diminuídos, propõe-se a elaboração de um programa permanente de educação ambiental, acompanhamento contínuo dos órgãos fiscalizadores, além de instalação de cercas no local.

City Life of Kamianets-Podilskyi Inhabitants in the Autumn of 1919 under Russian-Ukrainian War (based on the sources of local newspapers)
Authors: Liaskovych Roman , Liaskovych Тetiana
Published: October 2024

The article offers an analysis of the city life of Kamianets-Podilskyi inhabitants during the active phase of the Russian-Ukrainian war in the autumn of 1919 based on the local periodicals. The identical situation of today’s Ukrainian society led to an active research search for historical truth. The goal of our paper is to highlight the everyday and public life of the residents of Kamianets-Podilskyi in the fall of 1919 through the prism and analysis of local newspaper publications. It has been established that the increase in the Ukrainian National Republic (UNR) population in Kamianets-Podilskyi, a state center of UNR, led to the exhaustion of the Municipal Economy, in particular, there were problems with power, water supply, and lightning of city dwellings. The inability of local structures to quickly solve public utility problems prompted the townspeople to make frequent use of an additional source of light i. e. kerosene lamps and candles. The quality of nutrition and healthcare has worsened. Food products were not available for many residents either, black-market practices and high prices for staples spread in the city. Cheap food establishments could not provide everyone with a hot lunch, and bakeries that went into operation after the threshing of grain sold their products for funds that were not available to all Kamianets residents. A typhus epidemic spread, which was difficult to stop due to the lack of sanitary conditions. With the cold weather approaching fuel crisis of economic origin became more acute. It has been found that some factors were positive for city dwellers. First, the work of the railway was restored and served the passengers in several directions. Second, the city educational network was extended (primary, secondary, and higher educational institutions, as well as courses for advanced training). Third, the wide cultural leisure for the inhabitants (attending theatre plays, concerts, libraries, etc.) was organized. To some extent, this experience became popular in other cities of the region.
Leisure Aspect of the Everyday Life of Factory Workers in Yelysavethrad at the Turn of the 19th–20th centuries
Authors: Nadtoka Hennadii , Chaban Yaroslav
Published: October 2024

The article highlights the development of the leisure aspect of the everyday life of factory workers in Yelysavethrad at the turn of the 19th–20th centuries, characterizes its forms, qualitative content and specifics. It has been established that the leisure culture of Yelysavethrad workers in the late nineteenth century was dominated by destructive activities and habits typical of the working communities of industrial cities of the Naddniprianshchyna. With the intensification of industrial production at the turn of the century and the attention drawn to the situation of the working community during the events of the Russian Revolution of 1905–1907, the germs of recreational infrastructure began to appear in the city, creating an alternative for workers in the form of constructive, life-affirming forms of recreation — reading periodicals and literature, visiting the circus, enjoying theatre, football, etc. To a large extent, this trend was influenced by the owners of enterprises and their administration, rather than by representatives of the city government. The expansion of enterprises and production teams and their increased economic prosperity in the early twentieth century made it possible to invest in improving the socio-economic and cultural level of the working community. The cultural and leisure sphere was best organised at the largest enterprise in the city, the R. and T. Elworthy’s Plant of Agricultural Machinery. In 1905, the owner created the «People’s House» at the enterprise, which served as a hall for public performances and theatrical performances of the local drama group, dances; there was a bowling alley and a factory library. The company had an amateur orchestra, a cycling club and its own football team. In addition to this, the author has made an attempt to create a periodisation of the development of workers’ leisure in Yelysavethrad, based on the chronology of the quantitative and qualitative expansion of its main elements.
Archeography and Family Honour: The Circumstances Surrounding the Publication of the Autobiographical Notes of the Pryluku Сolonel Hryhorii Galagan by Oleksandr Lazarevskyi
Authors: Kovalov Yevhen
Published: October 2024

The article is about the publication by Oleksandr Lazarevskyi, a prominent historian and archeographer, of the autobiographical notes of the Pryluky Colonel Hryhorii Hnatovych Galagan, written around 1771, which he found in the Galagan family archive in Sokyryntsy and printed in 1883. Comparison of the published text with the original, which is now kept in the Manuscript Institute of the National Library of Ukraine named after Volodymyr Vernadskyi, showed that this document was not printed in its entirety. Lazarevskyi’s publication lacks places where the author talks about his “dishonour”. Using the diary notes of Hryhoriy Pavlovich Galagan, who owned the archive, where the manuscript was stored, made it possible to find out the reasons for the incompleteness of the publication. Lazarevskyi was forced to remove all references to “dishonour” at the request of Hryhorii Galagan. This was caused by concern for the impeccable reputation of his ancestors, conditioned by the ideas about noble honour and dignity, which played an important role in the system of socio-cultural coordinates of the stratum of society to which the owner of the document belonged. Impeccable family honour was an important part of the symbolic capital, on the basis of which the Ukrainian local nobility tried to maintain authority in local public life in the conditions of the gradual disintegration of traditional society and the onset of the era of modernity, in which class and national structures replaced the pre-modern hierarchy. The case study of the publication of Hryhorii Galagan’s autobiographical notes shows what subjective motives influenced the publication of materials from the private archives of the Ukrainian local nobility at the end of the 19th century and helps to better understand the socio-cultural context in which the Ukrainian archeography developed.

Published: October 2024

This study fills a significant vacuum in the literature and offers insightful information, especially pertinent to the Arabic and Gulf areas. In support of the socioeconomic development and diversification initiatives in these areas, it encourages the creation of educational policies and practices that can improve student job chances. Educators and policymakers play a crucial role in implementing these recommendations, ensuring that effective STEM education equips future generations with the knowledge and skills to navigate and secure digital environments, mitigating risks posed by cyber threats. By preparing students to excel in STEM disciplines, they ensure that the future workforce is ready to contribute to and shape a safer, more innovative future. Today's STEM workforce requires continuous education to stay abreast of advancements in STEM fields. Online delivery of STEM courses enables higher education institutions to collaborate effectively with industry partners, minimizing disruptions to productivity. This study aims to evaluate the enhancement of students' STEM knowledge and skills through e-learning platforms using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The dataset comprises 212 participants and 15 indicators, analyzed using measurement and structural models. Results indicate significant findings supporting hypotheses: E-Learning (E.L.) improving Student employment opportunities (SEO) (B=0.539, t=8.884, p=0.000) and E.L. improving STEM (B=0.465, t=8.849, p=0.000), validating H1 and H2, respectively. H3 explores how possessing STEM knowledge mediates E-Learning's impact on SEO, revealing a notable indirect relationship (B=0.082, t=2.303, p=0.021). Integrating E-Learning with STEM fosters a robust digital infrastructure, addressing talent shortages and improving human resource management amidst global technological advances. Online STEM courses are increasingly recognized as a viable solution to national STEM challenges, overcoming traditional adoption barriers. Doi: 10.28991/ESJ-2024-SIED1-014 Full Text: PDF
“WE HAVE ALWAYS BELIEVED THAT OUR PEOPLE ARE CAPABLE OF GREAT ACHIEVEMENTS”: THE PAN-GERMANS’ WAR PLANS IN 1914-1918
Authors:   Kostroma State University, Turygin Aleksandr A.
Published: October 2024

The basic understanding of the Pan-German League in historical literature is, as a rule, inextricably linked with the popular belief in the incitement of a military sentiment within the German society on the eve and during the First World War, as well as in the fact that Pan-Germans paved the way for the rooting of National Socialism during the Weimar Republic. If we limit ourselves to only studying the mass literature published by the Pan-German League in large editions, then, undoubtedly, this idea is true. The Pan-Germans really offered the Germans their vision of Germany’s military goals, persistently seeking their approval by the society and the ruling elite. However, outside the scope of the general research, there often remains an understanding of the reasons, motives and the conditions in which the Pan-German League carried out its agitation and propaganda work. The memoirs of its chairman, published in 1932 and 2022, significantly expand the knowledge of what was outside the Pan-German movement: the struggle for the resignation of the Chancellor, the establishment of a dictatorship, the widespread use of all types of weapons, German colonization. The purpose of the article is to show, on the basis of the previously unpublished memoirs of H. Claß, how the Pan-German League’s military objectives were prepared, how those objectives were justified; the paper also aims at revealing the internal contradictions and intentions that went beyond the scope of military plans. The conclusion is about the failed attempts of the Pan-Germans to establish a temporary dictatorship, pushing aside the civil administration, as well as about the failure of the project of military goals. However, despite the failures, the Pan-German agitation achieved its goal, causing a crisis of public confidence in the Chancellor’s personally, and their attempts to spread thoughts about dictatorship in society, inspired by H. Claß, allowed the future myth of the Fuhrer to crystallize.

Authors: Vekerdi Zoltán
Published: October 2024

A biztonsági környezetben az elmúlt tíz esztendő során bekövetkezett és jelenleg is zajló változások annyira mélyrehatóak, hogy a legerősebb politikai-katonai szövetség, a NATO, rákényszerült átalakítani saját gondolkodását, s megerősíteni az alapfeladatainak biztosításához szükséges készenléti, vezetés-irányítási és cselekvési rendszert. Ennek a rendszernek elengedhetetlen alkotó, s képességfokozó eleme a katonaegészségügy. Az egészségügyi biztosítás folyamatos fejlesztésen megy keresztül. A biztonsági környezet kihívásai a katonaegészségügyi közösséget is szemléletváltásra kényszerítik. Az ellátás minőségi mutatóinak szüntelen javítására való törekvés mellett az egészségügyi biztosítás elméletében és gyakorlatában egyenlő súllyal kell, hogy jelen legyen a sérültek és betegek mennyiségi ellátásának szükséglete, valamint képessége. Ugyancsak fokozott erőfeszítések folynak a polgári-katonai egészségügyi együttműködés hatékonyságának növelésére. Ennek révén tudja a katonaegészségügy biztosítani a nagy összhaderőnemi műveleteket és hozzájárulni a társadalom ellenálló, továbbá túlélő képességének növeléséhez. A NATO katonaegészségügyi közössége évek óta, lépésről lépésre halad az átalakítás eme útján. Ennek néhány, a szerző által kiválasztott elemét, állomását, kihívását mutatja be a tanulmány.

A COVID-19-világjárvány nemcsak általános népegészségügyi, járványügyi probléma, hanem komoly, egész iparágak, illetve foglalkozási csoportok létét és működését alapvetően átalakító tényezővé vált. Különösen igaz ez a légi közlekedésre mint iparágra és a légi közlekedési szakszemélyzetre mint a repülésélettani stresszorok miatt különösen sérülékeny munkavállalói csoportra. A cikknek nem célja a COVID-19-világjárvány teljes körű diagnosztikai, terápiás és járványügyi elemzése, csak arra fókuszál, hogy mindez hogyan érintette a civil és katonai repülésben a repülőhajózó állomány egészségügyi alkalmasságát, különös tekintettel a lezajlott vírusfertőzés hypoxia-tűrőképességre és a kognitív teljesítményre, illetve mentális egészségre gyakorolt hatására. Mindezt a barokamrában hypobárikus hypoxiában mért kedvezőtlen perifériás és agyi pulsoxymetriás adatokkal is szemléltetjük.
COVID-19 Publications : Summary of Abstracts
Authors: Vekerdi Zoltán
Published: October 2024

As we emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic, it is necessary to critically reflect on and review the phenomenon that took millions of lives worldwide, overwhelmed medical capabilities, and devastated communities. The negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic include an economic downturn, disruption of societal functioning, and degradation of operational readiness. We can see that the destabilizing effects of pandemics pose threats to regional, multinational, and organizational security. Fortunately, pandemics are historically infrequent but with time, memories and clarity fade. We recognize that without a concerted, deliberate effort to preserve the knowledge we have gained, it will be lost. Looking forward, many of the lessons learned from this pandemic might be applied not only in future pandemics but also in combat operations and military operations other than war. To capture key lessons from the pandemic relevant to NATO, the NATO Centre of Excellence for Military Medicine (MILMED COE) organized the COVID-19 Lessons Learned Workshop in Budapest, Hungary from 23 to 25 May 2023. The workshop was attended by 60 participants from 17 nations and multiple national and international organizations. The participants of the workshop were predominately from the military medical community, and as such, the scope through which the pandemic was viewed had a decidedly military-medical lens. The following are some of the abstracts from the plenary session of the workshop.

Marksist yazın eleştirisi, Karl Marx’ın ekonomik durumu bir alt yapı, yazını ise bu alt yapıdan beslenen bir üst yapı olarak ele alan ve tarihsel materyalizm görüşünden kökenini alarak insan tarihinin ekonomik dinamiklerle şekillendiği, yazınsal eserlerde de ekonomik durumdan kaynaklı bir sınıf çatışması ideolojisi olduğunu benimseyen bir edebiyat kuramı ekolüdür. Marksist yazın eleştirisinde, kapitalist ve işçi sınıflara tabi olan karakterler bir sınıf çatışması içindedir ve özellikle işçi sınıf özgür aktörler olamaz. Ezen (kapitalist)-ezilen (işçi) taraflar arasındaki güç ilişkilerinin çözümlenmesi, metindeki ideolojinin alımlanmasını sağlayabilecektir. Bu çalışmada, genellikle Milli Mücadele dönemini anlatan eserleriyle bilinen, siyasi olarak demokrasi ve özgürlük tutkusuna sahip olan, komünizmi özgürlük ve demokrasinin büyük bir tehditi olarak gören Halide Edib Adıvar’ın Yolpalas Cinayeti başlıklı romanı Marksist yazın eleştirisi yoluyla çözümlenmiştir. Sosyalizm ve komünizm ile bağlantılı olan Marksist göstergelerin Halide Edib Adıvar romanında çözümlenmesinin nedeni, yazarın bu göstergeleri kullanma veya kullanmama eğiliminden bağımsız bir şekilde, 1900’lerin başında İstanbul’daki toplumsal durumu ve popüler kültürü yansıtmada kurguladığı karakterlerin ve olayların, toplumda halihazırda bulunan ezen-ezilen güç ilişkilerini ortaya çıkarabilme potansyelidir. Yapılan çözümlemede, toplumdaki emek sömürüsünün önce ailede başladığı, kapitalistin artı değerini sürdürebilmek için işçinin emek-zaman denklemini manipüle ettiği bulunmuştur.
Hasedin Kıskacında Gelişen Bir Kişilik Örüntüsü: Mine Söğüt’ün “Naz Neden Derine Gömmemiş Kediyi?” Öyküsünde Kötü Çocuk(luk)

Published: October 2024

Kendini insan ve hayvan davranışlarının altında yatan temelleri aramaya adayan psikoloji bilimi ancak 19. yüzyılda felsefeden ayrılarak müstakil bir hüviyet kazanır. Bir asır gibi kısa bir sürede teorik alt yapısını kuran psikolojide Sigmund Freud’un yeri yadsınamazdır. Psikanalitik kişilik kuramının ortaya çıkışı, psikoloji çalışmalarının seyrini değiştirir. Bilimin doğasına uygun olarak Freud’un teorisine getirilen eleştiriler, kuramın gelişip günümüze kadar ulaşmasını sağlar. Öyle ki Alfred Adler, Karen Horney, Heinz Kohut, Melanie Klein gibi kuramcılarla Neo-Freudyen bakış açısı gelişmeye ve değişmeye devam etmektedir. Melanie Klein’in “nesne ilişkileri kuramı” da bu gelişmenin bir sonucudur. Gelişmelerin yansıması sadece psikoloji bilimi ile sınırlı değildir. Psikanalitik kuramın etkilediği alanlardan biri de şüphesiz edebiyat olmuştur. Sanatçıyı merkeze alan psikanalitik edebiyat kuramı kahraman ile onun yaratıcısı arasında ortaklıklar bulmaya çalışır. Bu makalede ise Freud’un klasikleşmiş kuramından yola çıkmak yerine psikoterapi yaklaşımlarda güncelliğini koruyan “nesne ilişkileri kuramı” ile Mine Söğüt’ün “Naz Neden Derine Gömmemiş Kediyi?” öyküsü incelenecektir. Bahsedilen öykünün seçilmesinin nedeni yazarın alışılagelmiş çocukluk anlatılarından uzaklaşarak bir “norm dışı çocukluk” ortaya koymasıdır. Klein’in kuramı ise güncel bir bakış açısının çağdaş bir yazarın eserine nasıl baktığını ortaya koymak için seçilmiştir. Bu çalışmada kuramdan yola çıkarak iyi meme-kötü meme ayrımını bütünleştirememenin hasede yol açtığı ve parçalı kimliğin öykü kişisinin hayatının tümüne yayıldığı iddia edilmiştir. Kronolojik bir sıra gözetilerek bireydeki hasedin oluşmasına zemin hazırlayan şartlar irdelenmiş ve hasedin nasıl ölümle sonuçlanabileceği gözler önüne serilmiştir.

Authors: Bayan Ahmed  , Tilaye Asnake
Published: October 2024

Efficient irrigation begins with properly installed and maintained pumps, motors, and engines. For this, the study was conducted on potential irrigation pump users of the Arsi and East Shewa zones with the objective of identifying the technical constraints of smallholder irrigation pump users. Doddota from Arsi and Dugda and Bora woreda from the East Shewa zone were selected. 211 samples size from 2321 pump users were used for data collection. The constraints listed by respondents, like pump damage, pump cost, long priming, and fuel, were the most common bottlenecks in pump irrigation schemes. Pump damage was positively correlation with use of un-recommended suction and delivery head, age of pump, long priming time and continues operation time but negatively correlation with pump maintenance, experience in irrigation farming and educational level of the household. Long priming and fuel consumption was positively (+Ve) correlation with use of un-recommended suction and delivery head, age of pump, operation time and pump size. From the existing pump type respondent responses, KAMA pumps were highly available on the market, vulnerable to damage, and had sufficient spare parts with values of 60.66, 64.45 and 44.08%, respectively. The lowest were Cushion their values were 1.42%, 3.32% and 3.78%, respectively. The respondents also reply, due to absence of governmental pump maintaining organization, cost of maintenance at local and private garage were very expensive (68.25%) and expensive (26.07%). This makes another problem on small holder irrigation pump. Therefore, it is recommended to government to add pump maintaining structure at engineering center which serves' closely to scheme users and providing regular training on maintenance checklist. It is also recommended for engineering and socio-economic researchers to conduct research collaboratively to assess the gap frequently for other kebele pump user and technical performance evaluation for pump that have problems.

Realizar uma investigação sobre o tratamento farmacológico da malária em crianças por meio de uma revisão bibliográfica. Método: Tratou-se de uma revisão bibliográfica, descritiva e qualitativa, que partiu da seguinte pergunta norteadora: “Como é feito o tratamento farmacológico da malária em crianças?”. Resultados: Foi possível selecionar 8 artigos para compor a amostra final desta revisão bibliográfica. Conclusão: Concluiu-se que a terapia medicamentosa continua sendo o principal método de tratamento, prevenção da morbilidade e controle da malária em crianças. Atualmente, a quimioprofilaxia e medidas preventivas adicionais continuam sendo a melhor maneira de combater o parasito eritrocitário, o Plasmodium spp transmitido pelo mosquito fêmea do gênero Anopholes, responsável pela sua disseminação. Entretanto, a biodisponibilidade de certos medicamentos antimaláricos varia amplamente, principalmente entre alguns grupos populacionais, o qual incluem as crianças.

A vertigem é uma sensação de tontura ou giro, muitas vezes descrita como a
sensação de que o ambiente ao seu redor está girando. O diagnóstico da vertigem em idosos
pode ser desafiador devido a várias razões. Os idosos frequentemente têm múltiplas condições
médicas, o que pode complicar a identificação da causa específica da vertigem. Por ser uma
dificuldade diagnóstica e terapêutica na terceira idade, o tratamento dependerá da causa
específica identificada. A gestão eficaz da vertigem em idosos muitas vezes requer uma
abordagem interdisciplinar com profissionais de saúde especializados em otorrinolaringologia,
neurologia, geriatria e fisioterapia. À medida que envelhecemos, ocorre um declínio natural nas
funções sensoriais, incluindo audição e visão, além de problemas com o sistema vestibular, que
controla o equilíbrio, podendo ser mascarados ou complicados por estas alterações sensoriais,
dificultando o diagnóstico da vertigem na terceira idade. O presente estudo visa descrever os
motivos das dificuldades diagnósticas da vertigem em idosos na atualidade.

Investigating the growth trends of LGBTQ Travelers in Thailand's Tourism Industry
Authors: Aphisavadh Sirivadhanawaravachara
Published: October 2024

This research identifies the growth trends of LGBTQ travelers in Thailand's tourism industry, trying to fill the important gap in the empirical knowledge about the impact this demographic and their preferences have. This study used an interpretive field study approach within a qualitative paradigm with interviews and participant observation in assessing motivations, behavior, and experiences of LGBTQ tourists within Thailand. This research answers some key questions about the scope of LGBTQ travel, growth patterns, how organizations are responding for inclusivity, and strategies to attract this market segment. Useful insights for stakeholders in the tourism sector will be sought from this study by analyzing the travel behavior and preferences, as well as emerging trends in tourism. These findings will contribute to the academic discourse on tourism inclusion but will also have real-life implications for the development of marketing strategies, improvement in destination management, and the development of a more tolerant society. This research, once and for all, is supposed to bring into focus a substantial opportunity lying in LGBTQ tourism in Thailand and is going to accentuate the pressing need for providing tailored inclusive travel experiences that would impress diverse desires and aspirations among LGBTQ people. Given that this exploration is necessary, it will foreground the economic, social, and cultural dimensions of LGBTQ tourism within the entire Thai tourism milieu. Conversely, by investigating the motivation for travel among the LGBTQ market segment, this research study will also highlight the unique experiences and viewpoints of LGBTQ tourists while adding to the increasingly complex understanding of this growing market segment. This study will also examine the barriers and challenges that LGBTQ visitors face while traveling in Thailand, and it will also investigate what can be done to make them feel welcome. Practical recommendations for effective targeting and catering to the vibrant market segment will be made by analyzing recent tourism trends and preferences of the LGBTQ traveler. Therefore, tourism by LGBTQ people can have economic impacts, cultural exchange, and tolerance of society. Additionally, extra insight into special needs and desires of tourists will be needed to complement fulfilling and inclusive experiences with which Thailand is establishing its reputation as an LGBTQ-friendly destination. This study will delve deep into the nuances and complexity of LGBTQ tourism in Thailand through an in-depth interview and participant observation study. A study of this nature would add to the growing body of knowledge in terms of the impact and preferences of this demographic and facilitate a more responsive and responsible tourism industry that would have great benefits for LGBTQ tourists and society in general.
