Authors: Watson Samuel C. , Karr Lisa K. , Sullivan Gary A.
Published: March 2024

Collaborative learning methods are increasing in popularity as a way of improving student performance and involvement in undergraduate courses. For this study, a group quiz format was used in an to attempt to improve course grades and engagement in an introductory meat science course. Six group quizzes and six individual quizzes were taken by 70 students during two semesters of the course. For group quizzes, students were randomly assigned to groups of three to four students and given ten minutes to complete the quiz individually followed by three minutes to discuss the quiz and change answers. At the end of the semester, students completed a Likert item questionnaire concerning their opinions on the quiz format. The average scores were not different between the two quiz types in both semesters. Group quizzes also did not improve exam scores or overall course grades for the students. Even though average performance was not improved, students highly preferred the group quizzes to the individual quizzes and valued the exercise.

Published: March 2024

Over the last 70 years, the world has made great strides in terms of human rights guarantees, and Brazilian legislation has not lagged behind. Today, with the Federal Constitution, the Refugee Law (Law No. 9,474/1997) and the new immigration law (Law No. 13,445/2017), Brazil has consolidated one of the most complete, modern and generous legal systems in the world for welcoming migrants, refugees and stateless people. These conditions mean that many people seek refuge in the country to receive humanitarian aid and establish their residence. Through bibliographic and documentary analysis, based on empirical theoretical knowledge, the work sought to discuss the process of Public Management practiced by the State, in particular the City of Curitiba through the MigraCidades Diagnostic Report/2021. It concluded that at the state level, public policies applied to migrants and refugees are managed through CERMA/PR with the support of organized civil society and pointed out shortcomings. At the municipal level, the public policies applied to migrants and refugees are managed by FAS with the support of organized civil society and pointed out shortcomings.

Published: March 2024

Introduction: The mandibular torus is an exostosis characterized by bone growth. It is frequently seen in male patients, with a prevalence in young adults and middle-aged patients. With regard to treatment, the literature advises against removing the mandibular torus; only in specific situations is intervention necessary. Aim: The aim of this study is to report a case of a female mandibular torus and to detail its removal. Methodology: Case report describing the anamnesis, medical history, oral clinical examination, imaging examination and the intervention chosen after analyzing all the data collected. Case report: A 74-year-old patient sought dental care complaining of dissatisfaction with her smile. A thorough clinical examination revealed the presence of a hard, lobular mass in the region of the lingual alveolar process of the mandible, covered by normal-looking mucosa. The patient reported discomfort and pain due to the presence of the mass. Based on the clinical examination and complementary imaging, the patient was diagnosed with a mandibular torus, and the decision was made to remove it because it would compromise her intended treatment. She was then advised to follow certain recommendations and was constantly monitored by the team. Conclusion: The study presented a case of mandibular torus that culminated in the effective removal of the bilateral mandibular torus, contributing to a better fit of the prosthesis, ensuring better adaptation, stability and retention of the prosthetic piece.

Authors: Rotairo Cristina E. , Avilla Ruel A. , Arañes Fidela Q.
Published: March 2024

The self-handicapping behavior of college  students was investigated by determining whether self-esteem,  self-efficacy, locus of control, chemistry anxiety,  and attitude toward chemistry can predict the behavior.  Furthermore, the effect of self-handicapping behavior on  the performance of the students in chemistry was analyzed  in this study. Students from the Philippine Normal  University and Technological University of the Philippines  participated in the research and accomplished a series of  instruments on the factors under study. Correlation and  regression analyses were performed on the data. The  results revealed that self-esteem, self-efficacy, chemistry  evaluation anxiety, and attitude toward the difficulty of  chemistry were significant predictors of self-handicapping  behavior. In turn, self-handicapping behavior was found  to significantly predict the performance of the students  in chemistry. The results indicate that as the selfhandicapping  behavior of the students increases, the  performance in chemistry decreases.

The introduction of the Chemistry  MicroLab Kit (CμLK) aims to assist student learning of  chemistry in a more interactive and practical way. Each  kit was designed to address certain topics in chemistry that  may otherwise be too abstract to do in a lecture-discussion  set up. Among the many topics tackled in secondary  school, 13 undergraduate students were hand- picked for  this preliminary study. The test subjects for this initial  phase of the research both majors and non-majors, were  currently enrolled in a Chemistry course. It was also triedout at the Institute for Teaching and Learning (formerly Center for Teaching and Learning) with selected third year students. In this preliminary study, the students found three activities to be interesting and well-balanced: Gas Laws in a Box, Particulate Nature of Matter, and Solution Rules. In assessing the activities, they highly rated the easy language used for understanding the procedures, followed by setup of the experiments and a step-by-step presentation of the procedures. Initial results of the study find it a promising addition to the secondary level chemistry activities because CμLK enhances students' attitudes and motivation toward chemistry laboratory work.

Authors: Nguyen Hoang Han , McMahon David
Published: March 2024

Relationships between the shrink-swell index and other clay tests, such as Atterberg limits have been investigated by others however, there is not any available information for the Wagga Wagga region in NSW Australia. This study’s objective is to establish some relationships between the shrink-swell index and Atterberg limits of the soils in the Wagga Wagga region. A total of 27 samples at different locations and depths was tested for shrink-swell index, linear shrinkage, liquid limit, plastic limit, plasticity index and soil particle size distribution, using Australian Standard test methods. The results and data analysis indicated that shrink-swell index correlated with Atterberg limits. The shrink-swell index can be estimated based on a single Atterberg limit test or the combination of linear shrinkage + liquid limit and linear shrinkage + plasticity index. In conclusion, linear shrinkage and liquid limit are the reasonable prediction factors for the estimation of shrink-swell index for the soils in the Wagga Wagga region.

Published: March 2024

Background: Chemotherapy-induced neuropathy (CIPN) is the most severe consequence, causing both sensory and motor impairment with an incidence of between 19% and over 85%. Leukaemia, lymphoma, and sarcoma are just a few of the cancers that are treated using vincristine (VCR), a typical anticancer treatment used in chemotherapy. Peripheral neuropathy caused by vincristine is the primary impediment to the efficacy of ongoing anti-cancer treatment and continued use. Objectives: The current study's goal was to contemplate the significance of thymoquinone on the development and expression of vincristine-induced neuropathy. Methodology: All groups except normal saline were administered vincristine 0.1mg/kg i.p for 14 days. In selected groups Gabapentin (75mg/kg) and thymoquinone were administered at 10, 20, and 30 mg/kg/day for 14 days orally along with vincristine (acquisition) and once at day 14 (expression). Thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia were quantified on days 1, 6, and 14 after 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes. The data were processed using the Students’t-test and post hoc Dunnett's test. Results: The acquisition and expression of thermal hyperalgesia as well as mechanical allodynia was significantly improved by thymoquinone at all the tested doses at days 6 and 14 as well as after 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes significant improvement was observed. Conclusion: It is manifested that TQ can be an impending candidate for the management of vincristine-induced neuropathy.

Published: March 2024

Background: Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is a clonal myeloproliferative disorder of blood stem cells, which is typically characterized by the presence of a Philadelphia chromosome. Even though there have been several studies on the molecular genetics, pharmacogenomics, pharmacological treatments for CML, and its mechanism is still not fully understood. Objectives: This study is designed to provide new updates and better insights into CML molecular biology and drug therapy, along with their benefits and drawbacks. Methodology: For this review, the recent literature was searched from January 2019 to 2023 through various electronic databases. Results: Review findings further suggested that imatinib mesylate was the first tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) licensed as first-line therapy for affected people with CML in the chronic, blast, and rapid phases. Dasatinib is another second-generation multi-target kinase inhibitor, for imatinib-resistant CML treatment in all stages, which is 325 times more effective than imatinib and 16-fold more effective than nilotinib. Nilotinib received approval from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for handling imatinib-resistant patients. Bosutinib and ponatinib are other renowned TKIs taken orally. European Medicine Agency (EMA) and FDA-approved asciminib in moderate to severe, rapid, and blast-phase CML patients intolerant to previous therapies. Conclusion: In conclusion, this study indicated the need to include advanced computational tools in addition to the large sample size of cohort studies, which may result in a better understanding of pathophysiology and better clinical outcomes.
Research on the mechanics differences between single-row and double-row side piles of station using the PBA method
Authors: Pei Xingkai , Sun Jing , Guo Guangyao , Zhou Xuemin , Zhang Shuai
Published: March 2024

The side pile is a crucial mechanical component in station construction using the PBA (pile-beam-arch) method, and its stability during the construction process cannot be overstated. The mechanical differences between single-row and double-row side piles in this construction method have garnered significant attention, yet few studies have been conducted on this matter. Therefore, this paper employs numerical simulation to compare the deformation and mechanical properties of single-row and double-row side piles (the adopted pile type is micro steel pipe pile, abbreviated as MSPP) in a metro station using the PBA method. The findings are validated through the model experiment. It is found that the soil arch effect created by the front-row pile of the double-row piles serves as the primary lining, offering a certain shielding effect to the soil stress behind the back-row pile. Notably, the soil stress values in double-row pile conditions are slightly higher compared to single-row pile condition, leading to a noticeably smaller final deformation of the pile top. The combined bending moments and axial forces of the front-row and back-row piles in double-row piles exceed those of a single-row pile. Specifically, bending moments are highest in single-row piles, followed by front-row piles and then back-row piles, while axial forces are highest in single-row piles, followed by back-row piles and then front-row piles. This suggests that the bending moments and axial forces of double-row piles are smaller than those of a single-row pile. The internal force distribution within the double-row pile is more balanced, thereby enhancing the lining strength and improving the station’s safety through the PBA method. The findings in this paper can serve as valuable references for the design and construction of similar projects.

The Freelance Mindset
Authors: Batra Joy
Published: March 2024

Offers concrete ways to navigate the uncertainty of freelancing to build a life that is financially and emotionally rewarding.

In The Freelance Mindset we discover our illusions about the way we work are just that—stories we make up, or, worse, stories that were made up for us. The current way of work is, in fact, not working for us, but there is another path forward: one that leverages our innate creativity and human need to make a living. Readers here discover what pulls us toward freelancing, develop tools to meet its challenges, and realize that we can succeed as either freelancers or traditional employees. What we cannot do is go back to seeing the world in the limited nine-to-five way we once did. Author Joy Batra compares traditional employment with the freelance lifestyle and keenly observes the gaps between the two. She shares concrete ways to help current and future freelancers navigate the uncertainty of freelancing in order to build a life that is both financially and emotionally rewarding.
Zelda Popkin
Authors: Popkin Jeremy D.
Published: March 2024

Zelda Popkin’s adventurous life could have made her the protagonist of one of her own novels. In his brilliant telling of the story of her life, her historian grandson, Jeremy D. Popkin, has made a singular contribution to the history of American Jewish women in the twentieth century.

From the 1920s when she worked in the highly competitive and male-dominated public relations business to her rise as a million selling author of popular fiction beginning in the 1940s, including some of the earliest fiction on the Holocaust and the state of Israel, Zelda’s life and work documented the rise of American Jewish women. Popkin uses Zelda’s experience to bring to life a larger story of American Jews and American women in the twentieth century, with the vividness that comes from having a lively character at its center. At the same time, this will also be a story about a woman whose powerful personality profoundly influenced several generations of a family. Popkin makes the case that even if she sometimes burnished her stories to create what he calls “legends of Zelda,” she was one of the most articulate female members of the generation of Jews who fought their way into the American middle class during the decades of the 1920s and 1930s.

Zelda’s life is a rich source of evidence about the experience of American Jewish women and offers perspectives that are frequently at odds with analyses based on men’s lives. The story of Zelda, her generation, and its rich and significant legacy will create a compelling portrait and detailed tapestry of an iconic woman and her time.
Seven Ways to Fix Policing NOW
Authors: O'Toole Kathleen , Peirce Robert
Published: March 2024

This practical guide to policing reform presents a call to action to address a threefold crisis in policing – a catastrophic loss of trust between police and the communities they serve; a sharp increase in violent crime after decades of decline; and a serious recruitment and retention challenge depleting police departments across the United States. The authors also recognize that, while these issues are now top of mind, policing needs far-reaching reform in order to respond to changes in society and its expectations, changes in crime and other threats to public safety, new technologies, and developments in best practice. Most reform to date has been piecemeal, as the book describes. The time has come to take a comprehensive look at every aspect of policing.
Climatenomics
Authors: Keefe Bob
Published: March 2024

The battle against climate change is no longer just an environmental or social issue. As shareholders demand corporations protect assets against climate change and the economic impact of environmental disasters suck billions of dollars out of the economy, capitalism itself has become an ally. The economic impact of climate change is rattling the foundation of our economy at its very core. It’s blowing up centuries-old industries from automobiles to oil and gas, creating new opportunities for investors and entrepreneurs. It’s costing Americans billions of dollars each and every year. And most importantly, it’s forcing politicians to pass long-overdue policies that will transform our businesses, our lives and our future like never before. The good news about this economic earthquake is that it just might be the thing that saves our planet.

This is the first book to lay out how climate change has become an economic issue above all and how that has changed everything from the business to politics to the outlook for the future. Bob Keefe, executive director of E2, a national, nonpartisan organization dedicated to providing business perspectives on environmental issues, shows readers how this new reality will impact their industries, businesses, jobs, and communities and transform our country’s economy. Climatenomics will be essential reading for anyone who cares about business, politics, or the future of our planet.
Rediscovering a Nation
Authors: Santos Michael Wayne
Published: March 2024

Polarization. Division. Hate. Many Americans wonder how our politics became dysfunctional—and what it will take to fix it. Historian Michael Santos takes readers on a journey to the heart of the American nation and the values that have allowed us to overcome previous challenges, sometimes in spite of ourselves. He remembers the heroes and heroines who challenged us to be better versions of ourselves. Santos addresses a series of interrelated questions: What are the legacies of this country, handed down to us by the Founders? What have previous generations done to keep the principles upon which the Republic rests alive and to advance their implications for more and more people? Where were the fault lines that put the American experiment at risk, and how have we overcome them? And when we have failed to overcome them, what possible lessons are there for an understanding of what America is and can become? By offering these historical perspectives, Santos helps readers overcome the current crisis in faith about the present challenges and future prospects for the American experiment.
Norman Rockwell's Models
Authors: Haggerty S.T.
Published: March 2024

This book is the first to tell the stories of Norman Rockwell’s models and their time in his studio.

In 1940, America’s favorite illustrator Norman Rockwell, his wife Mary and their three sons moved to the picturesque rural village of West Arlington, Vermont. The artist discovered a treasure trove of models. Norman Rockwell’s Models: In and out of the Studio is the first to detail these models’ lives, friendships with the artist, and experiences in his studio.

Dressed in quaint work clothing, the models were dairy farmers, carpenters, country doctors, soldiers, and mechanics. Norman Rockwell’s Models features non-fiction narratives telling the story of these folks during an era when they helped the war effort, farmed with horses, and received home visits from doctors. The book also describes the challenges the models faced in their own lives and how these affected their expressions in the paintings. For example, in several 1945 masterpieces, the jubilance Americans felt after the close of the second word war is revealed in their faces.

Upon meeting people, young or old, the artist would say, “Call Me Norman.” Rockwell learned the models’ roles in the community and their personalities, which fostered genuine paintings. He strove, for example, to find real-life soldiers to model as WWII heroes and spirited boys and girls for lively paintings. In the studio, Norman was charming and polite, but painstaking. He demonstrated poses and did whatever was necessary to evoke his trademark expressions, including telling stories of his own life, sometimes laughing or crying.

Spending entire summers at his family’s farmhouse near West Arlington, Vermont, the author, S.T. Haggerty, grew up knowing many models, including those who posed for such iconic works as Freedom of Speech, Breaking Home Ties, and Girl at the Mirror. Along with models and their families, the author hayed the scenic fields in the Batten Kill River Valley and swam under the red covered bridge on the Village Green. This experiences give him a unique perspective for telling this story.
From Plant to Patient: The Metabolic Benefits of Phytoestrogens
Authors: Kumar Verma Manish , Kumar Singh Brijesh , Tripathi Madhulika
Published: March 2024

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the potential health benefits of phytoestrogens, a diverse group of naturally occurring compounds found in plants. These compounds, with structural similarities to estrogen, are found in foods such as soybeans, flaxseeds and sesame seeds, and are studied for their roles in modulating hormonal activity and antioxidant properties. Their estrogen-like functions make them particularly interesting in managing conditions exacerbated by hormonal imbalances, such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and osteoporosis. Phytoestrogens enhance insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism, while their anti-oxidant properties neutralize free radicals and inhibit lipid peroxidation. They also influence fat metabolism and reduce adipogenesis, addressing oxidative stress and inflammation. Their estrogenic effects improve bone mineral density and reduce fracture risks, particularly in postmenopausal women, highlighting their broad potential in metabolic disease management. This growing body of research suggests that phytoestrogens, due to their unique properties and diverse mechanisms of action, could be a valuable addition to dietary and therapeutic strategies in the prevention and management of various metabolic diseases. This chapter delves into the multifaceted roles of phytoestrogens in metabolic disorders, with a special focus on their antioxidant properties.
