Authors: Hormozi-Moghaddam Zeinab , Taheri Seyedeh Mona , Paydar Reza , Neshasteh-Riz Ali , Farzam Rad Vahideh , Shaghaghi Mohadeseh
Published: January 2025

Purpose: Digital holographic microscopy, being a label-free and entirely non-invasive technique, proficiently facilitates the quantitative assessment of morphological alterations in living cells. The primary objective of this investigation is to scrutinize the capability of a digital holographic microscope in assessing the morphological transformations of cancer cells exposed to X-ray radiation.
Materials and Methods: The Michigan Cancer Foundation-7 (MCF7) cell line underwent exposure to X-ray radiation, administered in a singular fraction at a dose of 2 Gy. Subsequently, the MCF7 cell group was subjected to imaging through a digital holographic microscope. To scrutinize the morphological alterations between the radiation-exposed and control groups, the pertinent image parameters were extracted through the three-dimensional reconstruction of the microscopic images.
Results: The results indicate a significant increase in the morphological parameters of cells, encompassing volume, and roughness, subsequent to radiation exposure when contrasted with the control group. This observation signifies discernible alterations in the shape and roughness characteristics of MCF7 cells.
Conclusion: By extracting various parameters and broadening the spectrum of morphological and physical attributes, it becomes feasible to establish a more precise correlation between cellular conditions and the response to treatment. Such investigations pave the way for a more intricate exploration of cell morphology, enabling the identification of more specific parameters and distinctions in cellular response.
The Effect of Tumor Angiogenesis Agents on Tumor Growth Dynamics: A Mathematical Model
Authors: Mohseni Ali , Pooyan Mohammad , Raiesdana Somayeh , Menhaj Mohammad Bagher
Published: January 2025

Purpose: Tumor-induced angiogenesis is a dangerous state of the tumor growth process in which solid tumors have a blood supply. Modeling has been a very important tool in studying tumor growth and angiogenesis. In this paper, we developed a cancer model by introducing tumor angiogenesis agents to better highlight the role of these chemical substances in tumor-induced vascularization. Our model can reconstruct the transition from a pre-angiogenic to a post-angiogenic state.
Materials and Methods: The proposed model comprises five variables: host cells (normal cells), immune cells, tumor cells, endothelial cells, and tumor angiogenesis agents. Chaotic behavior in the production of different populations of cells during vascular growth may confer survival advantages to tumors. Our model has a chaotic regime, which is an indication of tumor-induced angiogenesis dynamics. The fixed points are analyzed biologically, and stability analysis is performed via their eigenvalues. We analyzed the model dynamics via observability and bifurcation analysis.
Results: The numerical simulations illustrate biological and clinical findings about vascular tumors. The results show that the proposed model with the existence of tumor angiogenesis agents could capture both avascular and vascular stages of tumor growth. There is no effect of tumor cell killing rate via immune cells on the system dynamics. However, the increase of inhibitory factors of tumor angiogenesis agents leads to the termination of chaos.
Conclusion: Our results show the ineffectiveness of targeted treatments on the immune system, which has been confirmed by many negative treatment methods in immunotherapies. Tumor-secreted inhibitor factors are essential to regulating the angiogenesis process. However, increasing inhibitor factors via anti-angiogenic drugs would be a more effective therapeutic approach to eradicate metastasis.

Published: January 2025

Purpose: The utilization of Ionizing Radiation (IR) in diagnostic dental techniques poses inherent risks, especially when patients are exposed to it repeatedly. Therefore, it is crucial to continuously evaluate and improve the measures taken to protect individuals from the potentially harmful effects of ionizing radiation in dental radiology. This study desires to assess the advancements made in recent years regarding ionizing radiation protection measures in the field of dental radiology.
Materials and Methods: A thorough review was conducted using prominent databases such as PubMed, Science Direct, and Dentistry and Oral Sciences Source (via EBSCOhost). The primary conclusions and relevant units of measurement are also included. According to the predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 26 articles were systematically reviewed for this study.
Results: Recent data reveals the urgent need to update radiation protection guidelines to accommodate newer technologies like Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) and digital imaging. Digital intraoral X-ray technology has shown promising results in significantly reducing radiation exposure. To ensure standardized practices, Diagnostic Reference Levels (DRLs) have been defined for CBCT and must be established for different clinical indications. Moreover, advancements in nanotechnology provide potential opportunities for the production of radiation shielding supplies that are lighter and customizable. These innovative materials can prove invaluable for everyday use, offering enhanced protection during extended periods of physical activity. The review findings suggest that samples with nanostructures are more efficient at reducing X-ray energy. The research findings indicate that the implementation of a nanocomposite shield leads to a notable reduction in radiation dose, with a range of 15 to 35%. Given the increasing frequency of dental CBCT imaging and the unmatched dose levels compared to conventional dental radiography, it is imperative to set DRLs in this domain.
Conclusion: This literature review focuses on the most common types of radiation protection in dental radiology, aiming to demonstrate improved techniques for individual protection.
Small Magnets, Big Future: Low-Field MRI Technology and Clinical Utility
Authors: Elhaie Mohammadreza , Koozari Abolfazl , Abedi Iraj , Monsef Abbas
Published: January 2025

Purpose: Despite the clinical advances made in magnetic resonance imaging with high static magnetic fields (1.5T and more), open MRI with low field (0.2-0.5T) has recently attracted the attention of researchers.
Low-field MRI (LF-MRI) has both advantages and disadvantages over high-field units. It enables the scanning of anxious patients and children who cannot tolerate enclosed high-field scanners due to discomfort. The open configuration of the LF-MRI provides a spacious examination environment. It also allows the safe imaging of metallic devices owing to the lower static field and radiofrequency. While image quality is degraded compared to high-field MRI due to a lower signal-to-noise ratio, technological advances may help address this limitation.
This review aims to provide a comprehensive outline of the current applications, technical aspects, and evidence supporting the diagnostic accuracy of Low-Field MRI.
Materials and Methods: A literature search was conducted in Google Scholar and PubMed from 2021 to the oresent using the search term "low field MRI" limited to the title. Studies were excluded if only on high-field MRI, not in English, or conference abstracts without full text. After applying exclusion criteria, 32 relevant articles remained for analysis.
Results: The results showed that portable low-field MRI expanded the availability of MRI beyond fixed facilities. One study found that 0.55T MRI had an accuracy similar to 1.5T for microbleed detection, suggesting its potential as an efficient alternative for stroke diagnosis. The literature has demonstrated the utility of low-field MRI in applications such as musculoskeletal, breast, and abdominal imaging.
Conclusion: In conclusion, these studies demonstrated the potential of low-field MRI as a cost-efficient alternative to high-field MRI for several clinical applications. The reduced costs and accessibility afforded by low-field designs have positioned this technology to increase diagnostic MRI access globally. However, further validation of diagnostic performance and cost-utility analyses accounting for accuracy are still needed.

Authors: Poshtchaman Faeze , Poshtchaman Zahra , Dehnabi Alemeh , Mahmoudi Rahil , Birjandi Batul
Published: January 2025

Background: Diabetic retinopathy is a common vascular complication of diabetes. Vitamin D has been found to play a role in the development and progression of diabetic retinopathy. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between vitamin D levels and proliferative and non-proliferative retinopathy in diabetic patients.
Methods: The present study is a cross-sectional analytical study. This study was conducted at Hafiz Sabzevar Diabetes Clinic and involved diabetic patients. A total of 80 diabetic patients were categorized into three groups: patients without retinopathy, patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy, and patients with non-proliferative retinopathy. Patients’ information was collected through a demographic questionnaire and a researcher-made checklist. The data were analyzed using SPSS 28, with descriptive statistical tests, Chi-square, ANOVA, and Bonferroni’s post hoc test.
Results: The results of the study showed a significant difference in vitamin D and creatinine levels among the three groups (p<0.001). The post hoc test was used to accurately determine this significant difference. The data revealed that both retinopathy groups had lower levels of vitamin D and higher creatinine compared to the non-retinopathy group, and this difference was statistically significant (p<0.001). However, there was no significant difference between the groups in terms of HDL (p=0.23), LDL (p=0.52), and total cholesterol (p=0.95).
Conclusion: Vitamin D deficiency increases the risk of developing diabetic retinopathy, both proliferative and non-proliferative. Therefore, it is recommended to consider taking vitamin D supplements in diabetic patients to maintain normal vitamin D levels, since it has positive effects in preventing the occurrence of diabetic retinopathy

Gestão democrática do planejamento escolar
Authors: Andrade Monteiro dos Santos Terezinha Fátima
Published: January 2025

Este trabalho resultou de reflexões, estudos e pesquisas realizados na área de gestão escolar e objetiva demonstrar que o planejamento educacional, particularmente o escolar, pode transformar-se em importante ferramenta na construção de novas relações de poder, condição indispensável para qualificação do processo educativo escolar, desde que seja realizado de forma participativa, a partir de uma determinada direção política, capaz de mobilizar, articular, negociar para uma intervenção organizada, por meio de propostas concretas advindas das necessidades e interesses dos sujeitos escolares. O processo de planejar-se organizadamente, com intencionalidade, deverá envolver mudanças de modo de pensar e agir, o que exige vontade, interesse, receptividade e compromisso dos sujeitos. Sabe-se que é um caminho de mão dupla, pois tanto pode servir para libertar, no sentido de desencadear o exercício da cidadania, como aprisionar para manter as estruturas vigentes, dependendo da concepção, metodologia e direção política de sua gestão, o que resulta de um conjunto de fatores que influem nas relações entre os sujeitos partícipes do processo.
Formação e profissionalização docente para a educação especial no campo na perspectiva histórico-cultural
Authors: Adams Fernanda Welter
Published: January 2025

A educação especial é uma modalidade de educação transversal que deve ser oferecida na rede regular de ensino para educandos público da educação especial em todos os espaços inclusive no campo. Consequentemente, o professor deve ser preparado para lidar com suas especificidades. Assim, o objetivo do presente trabalho é discutir as contribuições da Psicologia Histórico-Cultural para a formação de professores de ciência da natureza que vão atuar com alunos com deficiência que vivem no campo. Destaca-se que a pesquisa é subsidiada pela concepção de professores na Psicologia Histórico-Cultural, que compreende este como sujeito que transmite o conhecimento historicamente acumulado pelo homem. Apresentamos o referencial teórico da pesquisa, procurando entender o professor como aquele que ensina à criança aquilo que ela não é capaz de aprender por si só. Desta feita, a tarefa do processo educativo é dirigir o desenvolvimento psíquico do indivíduo, tendo o educador como mediador dos conteúdos científicos. Pensamos a mediação como ferramenta para promover o desenvolvimento dos aprendizes, incluindo o público da educação especial, pois é através da mediação, das relações entre os homens que a aprendizagem acontece, e apresentar a linguagem como um dos principais meios de promovê-la.  Discutimos também que a proposta de Vigotski para o trabalho com a pessoa com deficiência evidencia que o professor deve realizar suas mediações para descobrir as “vias de acesso” à constituição de conhecimentos e valores. O professor precisa conhecer o que está íntegro e, por essa via colateral, contribuir para o desenvolvimento do aluno. Portanto, acreditamos que formar professores a partir desse referencial teórico contribui para o atendimento do aluno com deficiência que vivem no campo.
Educação de tempo integral: estudo sobre o ordenamento jurídico nos municípios de Porto Alegre e de Canoas (RS)
Authors: De Abreu Oliveira Gabriela , Rodrigues Gularte da Silva Kelly Cristina , Da Silva Cunha Camila Rosangela
Published: January 2025

Este artigo visa apresentar o ordenamento constitucional, legal e institucional que constitui a educação integral no Brasil, analisando em que medida estas normativas se legitimam nas Leis Orgânicas Municipais de Porto Alegre, capital do Rio Grande do Sul e em Canoas, região metropolitana. Para a metodologia, utilizamos uma abordagem qualitativa, exploratória tendo como aporte, a pesquisa bibliográfica. Como resultados, encontramos um descompasso das normativas em que no âmbito federal, há documentos que promovem a educação integral em sua totalidade, e, o estado transmite a responsabilidade aos municípios, que por sua vez, chamam a participação de outros setores à cooperação. Entendemos que a educação integral está atrelada à aprendizagem ao longo da vida e as políticas públicas surgem para legitimar esse tipo de educação. Educar sempre levando em conta o contexto de vida e de trajetória do sujeito, compreendendo que tanto a escola, quanto o aluno estão em constante relação de aprendizado.
Migração, colonialidade e educação: o caso de São Paulo e suas políticas para refugiados e migrantes
Authors: Pinho Mariana
Published: January 2025

Este artigo investiga a relação entre a colonialidade e as políticas educacionais migratórias no município de São Paulo, a partir de uma perspectiva decolonial. Utilizando uma abordagem qualitativa e técnicas de análise bibliográfica e documental, a pesquisa examina as políticas municipais voltadas para migrantes e refugiados, destacando a continuidade das estruturas coloniais que impactam a educação no Brasil. O estudo identifica como a construção da identidade nacional e a lógica colonial perpassam as legislações e políticas educacionais, limitando a integração plena dos migrantes e refugiados. Assim, os resultados iniciais mostram que apesar de algumas iniciativas locais que buscam incluir os migrantes no sistema educacional, as políticas ainda mantêm uma visão homogeneizadora e muitas vezes negligenciam as especificidades culturais e linguísticas desses grupos, perpetuando a exclusão. Ademais, o artigo elucida que para uma educação verdadeiramente inclusiva e decolonial, é necessário romper com as lógicas coloniais, promovendo uma educação intercultural e emancipatória, além de fortalecer a participação social e a cooperação técnica com outras iniciativas nacionais e internacionais.

Published: January 2025

The article analyzes some paradoxes of criminal law theory and legislation due to the lack of an unambiguous legal definition
and the evaluative nature of a number of basic criminal law categories used in criminal law. These include the concepts of
“criminal act”, “criminality of the act”, “public danger”, “criminal liability”.
In the course of the analysis, various types of criminal acts are defined and ranked depending on their content component.
The ambiguity of the interpretation of the concept of “criminality of an act” used inconsistently in the criminal law is emphasized.
Special attention is paid to a meaningful analysis of the category of “public danger”, the definition of new approaches and
concepts characterizing it.

Published: January 2025

Aim: This study aimed to synthesize a novel pyrazole acridine derivative (3-ACH) and evaluate its anticancer properties on SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells.
Material and Methods: The pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde derivative was cyclized with dimedone and p-nitroaniline to synthesize the 3-ACH. Characterization of the compound was performed using FT-IR, NMR, HPLC-Q-TOF/MS, and elemental analysis. The cytotoxic impact of the 3-ACH compound on SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells was evaluated using the WST-1 assay in a dose- (50, 100, and 150 μg/mL) and time-dependent (12, 24, and 48 hours) manner. The impact of 3-ACH on apoptosis was investigated through immunostaining for Caspase-3, -8, and -9, and BAX proteins.
Results: 3-ACH reduced SH-SY5Y cell viability with the rate of 89.89±7.63% (p=0.002) at 100 μg/mL concentration after 24 hours of treatment. While a higher (150 μg/mL) concentration showed a similar reduction (90.53±2.88%, p=0.004), the lower (50 μg/mL) concentration maintained high cell viability (98.37±1.67%, p=0.903) at 24 hours. All doses of 50 μg/mL (94.55±0.65%), 100 μg/mL (95.18±1.41%), and 150 μg/mL (95.28±2.57%) significantly reduced cell viability rates, at 48 hours (all p<0.001). Immunostaining revealed a significant upregulation in the synthesis of BAX, Caspase-3, -8, and -9 proteins in cells treated with 3-ACH (100 μg/mL) for 24 hours compared to the control group.
Conclusion: These results indicate that 3-ACH has the potential to induce apoptosis in SH-SY5Y cells by activating both the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways, which may contribute to its cytotoxic effects. This study provides promising evidence supporting the potential of the 3-ACH compound as an anticancer therapeutic agent.
Značilnosti razredov, kjer je medvrstniškega nasilja več
Authors: Košir Katja
Published: January 2025

V poglavju utemeljujemo pomen proučevanja značilnosti na ravni razredov za razumevanje medvrstniškega nasilja. Povzemamo ugotovitve preteklih raziskav, ki so proučevale demografske in psihosocialne značilnosti razredov: velikost razreda, starost učencev, razredne hierarhije, razredne norme, moralno nezavzetost ter odnose med učitelji in učenci. Te raziskave kažejo, da izrazite razredne hierarhije in norme, ki povezujejo priljubljenost z agresivnostjo, povečujejo tveganje za nasilje. Prav tako je več nasilja v razredih z več moralne nezavzetosti, slabšimi odnosi z učitelji in višjimi cilji priljubljenosti. V zadnjem delu poglavja predstavljamo preliminarne rezultate naše raziskave: povezanosti med načini udeleženosti v medvrstniškem nasilju in značilnostmi razredov na razredni ravni; osnovno enoto torej predstavljajo razredi. Naši preliminarni podatki potrjujejo ugotovitve preteklih raziskav, ki so proučevale dejavnike različnih načinov udeleženosti v medvrstniškem nasilju na ravni psihosocialnih značilnosti razredov.

Prispevek se osredinja na odnos med različnimi oblikami (telesno, besedno, odnosno in spletno) izvajanja in doživljanja medvrstniškega nasilja z uporabo metode samoporočanja. Uporabljeni so podatki (N = 6395) prvega zajema raziskave Socialni kontekst kot dejavnik medvrstniškega nasilja: kako z oblikovanjem pozitivne vrstniške kulture prispevati k vključujoči šoli?. Analiza na podlagi izvedenih hierarhičnih multiplih regresij razkriva močno povezanost med izvajanjem nasilja in doživljanjem nasilja (viktimizacijo), kar kaže, da učenci niso vključeni samo v eno obliko nasilja, ampak se izvajanje in doživljanje nasilja zgodi na različne načine. Regresijski modeli so pokazali, da je izvajanje posameznih oblik medvrstniškega nasilja povezano z izvajanjem in doživljanjem drugih oblik nasilja, vendar se napovedniki razlikujejo. V regresijskih modelih za napovedovanje izvajanja nasilja k varianci pomembno prispevajo tako spremenljivke za izvajanje nasilja kot viktimizacijo. V regresijskih modelih, ki se osredinjajo na napovedovanje viktimizacije, pa je večji del variance pojasnjen s spremenljivkami, vezanimi na doživljanje nasilja (predvsem z vidika besedne in odnosne viktimizacije) v primerjavi z modeli za napovedovanje izvajanja nasilja. Prispevek spola in šolskega uspeha v regresijskih modelih je omejen predvsem na modele izvajanja telesnega in besednega nasilja.

Published: January 2025

Background: For high fertility in mares, it is important to have one foal a year and to have foaling early in the season, especially in racehorse breeders. Therefore, the fertility achieved by breeding the mare in foal heat is the determining factor. However, compared to thoroughbreds, there is not enough research on fertility results from postpartum breedings, such as foal and subsequent heats in Arabian mares. Thus this study aims to evaluate the fertility following the foal heat or subsequent postpartum breedings in Arabian mares. Methods: In this study, in 184 mares (aged 4 to 25 yr), a total of 240 postpartum first breeding cycles (foal heat or subsequent heat), including 12 mares with three, 26 mares with two cycles and 152 mares had one cycle, were evaluated. The ultrasonograhic examinations were done to determine follicle diameter at the breeding day, pregnancy and pregnancy loss on days 14, 28 and 45 following breeding. In addition, live foal rates were also recorded. Mann-Whitney U and Chi-square tests were used to compare continuous and categorical data, respectively. The factors affecting breeding were analysed by logistic regression analysis and ROC analysis was used to calculate threshold values for the day of postpartum breeding and the follicle size at breeding. Result: The per cent of mares were bred during their foal heat was 73%, while 27% were bred during their subsequent heat. The pregnancy rates for the mares bred at foal heat (56.8%, 100/176) and at subsequent heat (60.9%, 39/64) had no significant differences in between. Also, the pregnancy loss for the mares bred at foal heat and at subsequent heat were not significantly different, with 10.0% (10/100) and 2.6% (1/39), respectively. The live foal rate was also similar for the mares bred at foal (44.6%) and susequent heat (51.6%). It was found that the day of breeding (being earlier/at or later than 11 days pp) had significant effect on pregnancy (p=0.035) and pregnancy loss (p=0.025). In addition, live foal rates were effected by the day of breeding (p=0.017) and the size of the follicle (smaller or equal/greater than 47 mm) on the day of breeding (p=0.026). It was concluded that breeding a mare after the 10th day postpartum, along with a follicle diameter exceeding 47 mm on the day of breeding, has the potential to indicate achievable fertility for foal heat. Thus, it could be beneficial to taking these criteria into account in the postpartum reproductive management of Arabian mare.
Using Zeolite and Nitrogen Applications in Different Growing Conditions for the Improvement Yield in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Authors: Takil Engin , Kayan Nihal
Published: January 2025

Background: The present study investigated the effects of two different zeolite applications and different nitrogen-based fertilizers on the yield and yield components of chickpea in dry and irrigated conditions. Methods: The field experiment was conducted during 2019 and 2020 in the experimental area of the Faculty of Agriculture, Eskisehir Osmangazi University, Eskisehir, Türkiye. The experimental design was split split plot with four replicates. The main plots included growing conditions (dry - irrigated); subplots included zeolite applications (zeolite+ - zeolite-); and sub-sub plots included nitrogen applications [control, traditional, chemical, barnyard manure and Isabion (an animal collagen-derived biostimulant)]. Result: All the investigated characters were higher in irrigated growing conditions than in dry growing conditions, except for protein content. Average rainfall was recorded throughout the first year of the experiment and the application of zeolite had a beneficial impact on both yield and yield components. Nevertheless, in the second year of the experiment, the application of zeolite was rendered ineffective due to an abundance of precipitation. Barnyard manure increased yield and yield components more than other nitrogen applications.

Sheldon’s conjecture arouses interest in finding possible relationships between the product of the digits of a prime number pn and its index n. This work shows, in a numerical exercise, that this conjecture could be explained by the quasi-cyclical ascending behavior of the product of the digits that make up pn. It was found that the product of the digits of pn cannot be mathematically related to the index n for several reasons, which are explained in this work. Furthermore, we reflect on whether this conjecture, based on the observation of a coincidence, could be modified by considering a rearrangement of the index of the prime numbers.

Pembiasaan praktik keagamaan shalat dhuha berjamaah di RA Bina Mutiara Hati bertujuan untuk menciptakan anak usia dini yang islami, berakhlak mulia dan menghasilkan potensi anak-anak usia dini sebagai sumber daya manusia (SDM) berdasarkan Al-Qur'an. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji bagaimana pelaksanaan pembiasaan shalat dhuha berjamaah dalam mengembangkan nilai agama dan budi pekerti anak usia dini di RA Bina Mutiara Hati. Penelitian ini memakai jenis penelitian deskriptif kualitatif dengan pengumpulan data melalui teknik observasi, wawancara terstruktur dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pembiasaan shalat dhuha berjamaah mempunyai pengaruh besar dalam perkembangan nilai agama dan budi pekerti anak, yaitu: ketika mendengar adzan dhuhur anak langsung bergegas mengambil wudhu dan pergi ke masjid, anak juga lebih perhatian terhadap kebersihan diri setelah mengetahui terkait najis dan suci, serta pembiasaan shalat dhuha membuat anak mensyukuri dan merawat semua makhluk ciptaan Allah dengan menyayangi teman-temannya. Pembiasaan shalat dhuha berjamaah berpengaruh besar dalam mengembangkan nilai agama dan budi pekerti anak, namun masih ditemukan beberapa anak yang nilai agama dan budi pekertinya belum berkembang sesuai indikator yaitu anak-anak yang tidak serius ketika pembiasaan dilaksanakan dan Anak Berkebutuhan Khusus (ABK) dengan karakteristik speech delay dan ADHD. Guru di RA Bina Mutiara Hati diharapkan dapat memperbaiki metode dalam praktik pembiasaan shalat dhuha sehingga perkembangan nilai agama dan budi pekerti semua anak dapat berkembang dengan baik.

The aim of this study is to investigate the problems faced by primary school teachers in Turkish education and their recommendations for solutions to these problems. Employing a case study methodology, a cohort of 14 teachers representing diverse regions across Türkiye was selected for examination. In establishing the study group, a deliberate selection strategy known as maximum diversity sampling was employed. Data were collected via semi-structured interviews and subsequently subjected to content analysis. The findings revealed some prominent obstacles in Turkish education including insufficient familial engagement, students’ inadequate preparedness, reliance on conventional assessment paradigms, teacher burnout, deficiency in early childhood education provision, reliance on traditional instructional methodologies, uneven levels of pedagogical proficiency among teachers, deficient technological infrastructure, institutional resistance to innovation, financial constraints, and the prevalence of rote learning methodologies. In response to these challenges, teachers proffered recommendations aimed at enhancing pedagogical efficacy, fostering parental involvement in educational endeavors, refining curricular frameworks and instructional materials, promoting proper language usage, ensuring educational equity, and upgrading school infrastructure and classroom amenities.

Extreme weather events observed mainly in the 21st century highlight the urgent need to change habits. In this context, one of the practices that needs to be reassessed is related to waste generation and management, which has become a fundamental global issue. Reducing consumption, reusing items and recycling, that is, collecting and processing materials into new hazardous products to mitigate the problems caused by greenhouse gas emissions and minimize the harmful results of their disposal, whether in landfills or irregularly. In the construction industry, recycling solid waste, through reverse logistics and shared responsibility, is essential. This practice helps combat pollution and the depletion of natural resources. This paper reviews experiences of reusing plastic waste to produce construction elements such as bricks, blocks and tiles and cementitious compounds.

[Purpose] This study examined the effects of moderate-to-heavy exercise training combined with weighted vest and chicken protein supplementation in older adult females.[Methods] Fifty-two female participants, 60–79 yearsold, were randomly divided into three groups: control (non-exercise) (CON), exercise with weighted vest (WV), and exercise with weighted vest and protein supplementation (3 g of protein daily; WVP).A ll participants performed brisk walking and strengthening exercises for 50 min/day, three times/week, for 8 weeks. Muscle mass, bone mineral content, T-score, and physical performance were measured.[Results] The WVP group demonstrated a substantial increase in thoracic spine bone mineral content (8.4 ± 7.7 g, p = 0.001), and total body lean mass (0.2 ± 1.0 kg) compared with that in the other two groups. The CON and WV groups showed a decrease in thoracic spine bone mineral content (CON= -1.8 ± 1.8, WV= -3.9 ± 0.1 g) and total body lean mass (CON= -0.7 ± 0.9, WV= -0.8 ± 0.9 kg) compared with those in the WVP group. The WVP and WV groups had increased T-score (WVP= 0.01 ± 0.16, WV= 0.02 ± 0.18) when compared with that of the CON group (-0.19 ± 0.12). Both the WV and WVP groups displayed improved physical performance compared with that of the CON group.[Conclusion] Combined exercise with either a weighted vest or protein supplementation proved to be effective in protecting against trunk bone and muscle mass loss, and improving physical fitness in older female adults.
