Authors: Mejares Ais C. , Formentera Vincent , Suemith Christian Allan A. , Adtoon Nicole Kaye C. , Bucod Maria Stephany
Published: September 2024

Each family member has unique talents, and a solid family unit is built on the bond between siblings and parents. Middle children's lives have historically cast a shadow and been ignored in the family since older siblings are recognized for how they become the people they become. In comparison, younger siblings are recognized for their accomplishments. This study aims to explore the lived experiences of middle children, specifically their struggles, coping mechanisms, and insights. This study utilized a phenomenological qualitative research design; the selected participants were eight middle children of the family. Through thematic analysis using Colaizzi's method, this study gathered all the data from the participants. The study results showed the following themes: unfair treatment in the family as a struggle, relationships between middle children and their peers, and independence as a coping mechanism, while existential validation of the middle children as their insight. This research provides valuable insights that middle children need recognition and appreciation by accepting their unique perspectives and essential role in society and their lives.
Gender parity and Indigenous regulatory systems in Oaxaca, Mexico: a review of the state of the art
Authors: Ramírez Arellanes Emanuel Lorenzo
Published: September 2024

This article aims to analyze the state of the art on gender parity and Indigenous Regulatory Systems (IRS) in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico, to identify relevant lines of research. The problem that motivated this approach lies in the inequalities, violence, and injustices suffered by Indigenous women as municipal councilors, even though the constitutional principle of gender parity protects their political and electoral rights. Despite legislative advances in parity, systemic obstacles prevent the substantive achievement of the principle of gender parity in the indigenous municipalities of Oaxaca. This is a qualitative study, through documentary and discourse analysis, identifying theoretical and empirical positions and research results. Around 50 sources were reviewed to identify coincidences and differences, organizing the information into three sections: the path toward parity democracy, the concept of parity, and interculturality. The studies reviewed show that the main problems in the implementation of the principle of parity are related to gender stereotypes, the low institutional capacity of the State to implement parity, patriarchal resistance, and political violence. Most studies focus on the political party regime and do not analyze indigenous contexts. Therefore, it is convenient to analyze parity in the regime of the indigenous normative systems in Oaxaca, Mexico.

MSMEs as Catalysts for Growth: Analyzing their Contribution to Food Tour Development and Local Economic Sustainability
Authors: de Guzman Mona Luisa , Quezon Marissa
Published: September 2024

This study used a descriptive correlational approach to determine MSMEs' competitiveness and contributions to food tour development in Iloilo City. The study's respondents were entrepreneurs who managed and/or owned micro, small, and medium-sized businesses in Iloilo City, engaged in the food industry, and were either part of or considered part of the tourist circuit. A modified survey instrument addressed the study's concerns and was the primary data source. A validity score of 4.64 and a reliability Cronbach alpha of 0.980 indicates that the instrument is valid and very reliable. Descriptive and inferential statistical tools were used for statistical treatment. Key findings indicate that food-related MSMEs in Iloilo City are moderately competitive in their capacity to compete, connect, and change. A modest contribution to the growth of food tours through job creation and product offering but a low contribution to total monthly sales. A positive direct relationship was found between business competitiveness and contribution to food tour development. Entrepreneurial age and educational level have been shown to influence how much enterprises contribute to food tour development. The findings of this study may be applied to the growth and management of MSMEs in Iloilo City, making them more competitive agents of food tour development. Any organization that wants to be competitive should strategically form good partnerships to get amazing outcomes. Using positioning and uniqueness to catch visitors' attention, food-related MSMEs may leverage tourists who value food in their travel reasons. Appreciating local food resources and paying close attention to how they are presented and promoted to the public would likely attract tourists and increase tourism earnings.

La presente obra centra sus esfuerzos en analizar las relaciones entre la Unión Europea y la CELAC desde tres frentes: jurídico, económico y político-social. Los desafíos que está viviendo el mundo actual necesitan de respuestas solventes por parte de los Estados, siendo insuficientes, a juicio de los autores, las respuestas dadas en el marco de la soberanía nacional, y revelándose como esenciales las acciones derivadas de la toma de decisiones supranacional. En este contexto tan convulso, los autores y autoras de la obra entienden que, tanto la integración europea, como la integración latinoamericana, resultan trascendentales para que ambas regiones puedan ganar cada vez más peso a fin de contrarrestar a las grandes potencias: EEUU, China o Rusia. Además, la perspectiva coincidente en señalar que la alianza estrecha entre la Unión Europea y América Latina no solamente es deseable (dados los vínculos culturales entre ambas regiones) sino necesaria para construir un orden mundial basado en normas consensuadas, el respeto a los derechos humanos, el fomento de los sistemas democráticos y la confrontación de resurgimientos populistas que nos retrotraen a amargas épocas del pasado, debe dar paso a un futuro entendimiento euro latinoamericano que trascienda los temas que históricamente se han venido tratando en las diversas cumbres. Sin lugar a dudas, la reunión de 2025 en Colombia puede ser un paso decisivo en este camino.

Conservative Muslim and textual interpretation of the hadiths in polygamy propaganda in Indonesia
Authors: Nikmatullah Nikmatullah , Emawati
Published: September 2024

The pro-polygamy movement in Indonesia demonstrates not only Islamic doctrine and identity but also the rise of conservative Islam which is legitimized by an understanding of particular hadiths. This article aims to describe polygamy propaganda carried out by conservative Muslim groups on social media which is based on a literal textual understanding of religious texts. This qualitative research used gender analysis to investigate male dominance in polygamous propaganda employing hadith to recruit polygamous class participants. Data for the study were gathered from social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube) as well as online news about polygamy mentoring programs. The polygamous traditions employed by two mentorship communities in Indonesia such as Dauroh Poligami Indonesia (DPI) and Forum Poligami Indonesia (FPI), were used in this study. Polygamy traditions have been selected and interpreted to support polygamy, viewed as mandatory for men, with conservative narratives that support the propaganda of how to marry four wives. It is regarded as a symbol of individual piety and an Islamic lifestyle, inextricably linked to the materialization of religion, which provides polygamy with social and spiritual bliss. Therefore, polygamy propaganda initiated debate among Muslim feminist movements to advocate for gender equality and women's empowerment in modern Indonesia.

A INSERÇÃO DA CRIANÇA COM SÍNDROME DE DOWN NO PROCESSO ENSINO-APRENDIZAGEM
Authors: Terra Juliano Mendonça , Mendonça Niriam Maria Oliveira , Valadão Danielle Nunes , Silva Elina Martins
Published: September 2024

O desenvolvimento cognitivo do portador de Síndrome de Down se mostra usualmente marcado por concepções tradicionalmente estabelecidas e sedimentadas, que acabam por assumir o caráter de inquestionáveis, balizando as perspectivas e práticas adotadas nos procedimentos de reabilitação e na educação familiar e escolar. Contudo, com o avanço de pesquisas que investigam essa Síndrome, realizadas em diversos países e em vários campos do conhecimento, tem-se levantado que muitas dessas concepções se mostram errôneas e estereotipadas; necessitando serem revistas. Esse texto tem o objetivo de contribuir para aclarar algumas dessas concepções, sintetizando numa revisão bibliográfica algumas relevantes considerações em relação aos aspectos cognitivos e aos processos de aprendizagem do portador de Síndrome de Down, feitas a partir da década de 1990. Isso se faz importante, pois a revisão de concepções permite novas perspectivas de compreensão e de intervenção nos processos de desenvolvimento cognitivo dos portadores de Síndrome de Down, impulsionando a qualidade da aprendizagem desses. As dificuldades de aprendizagem, os distúrbios de conduta, a problemática de sua interação completam, mas não esgotam o quadro da educação do aluno com síndrome de Down. A criança com síndrome de Down têm idade cronológica diferente de idade funcional, desta forma, não devemos esperar uma resposta idêntica à resposta da "normais", que não apresentam alterações de aprendizagem. Esta deficiência decorre de lesões cerebrais e desajustes funcionais do sistema nervoso. O fato de a criança não ter desenvolvido uma habilidade ou demonstrar conduta imatura em determinada idade, comparativamente a outras com idêntica condição genética, não significa impedimento para adquiri-la mais tarde, pois é possível que madure lentamente. É comum observar na criança Down, alterações severas de internalizações de conceitos de tempo e espaço, que dificultarão muitas aquisições e refletirão especialmente em memória e planificação, além de dificultarem muito a aquisição de linguagem. Crianças especiais como as portadoras de síndrome de Down, não desenvolvem estratégias espontâneas e este é um fato que deve ser considerado em seu processo de aquisição de aprendizagem, já que esta terá muitas dificuldades em resolver problemas e encontrar soluções sozinhas.

Authors: Onyema Agu Matthew , Garba Suleiman Ismail , Yakubu Shedrach , Inya Agha Inya , Sylvester Onyima Chibuike
Published: September 2024

A total number of 3 growing rabbits about two weeks old were used in an experiment that lasted for 2 weeks. To investigate the growing effect of Pterocarpus erinaceus on growing rabbits. Three experimental diets, T1, T2, and T3 containing 0 %, 2.5 and 5 % of Pterocarpus erinaceus meal respectively were formulated, and three rabbits were randomly assigned to each diet. Daily feed intake was significantly higher in animals receiving Pterocarpus erinaceus bark meal than in animals on the control diet. Body weight changes of the animals on T1 were significantly higher than those on T2 and T3. The feed conversion ratio was the same in both T1, T2 and T3. The result of this experiment reveals that Pterocarpus erinaceus bark meal can be used in the diet for growing rabbits at a 5 % dietary level to enhance feed intake and weight gain thereby growing rabbits without compromising feed efficiency. The insight from the medicinal point of view makes the feed potent for ailment treatment and enhances both PCV and Hb. The initial PCV before the administration of the feed was for T1; 20.30 %, T2; 20.70 %, and T3; 21.68 %. After the administration of the feed, the final PCV was for T1; 24.60 % T2; 27.20 %, and T3; 28.20%. In the case of Hb, the initial Hb for T1 was 6.8, T2 was 6.9 and T3 was 7.2 whereas, after the administration of the feed, the final Hb for T1 was 8.2 g/dL, T2 was 9.2 g/dL and T3 was 9.4 g/dL. The use of Pterocarpus erinaceus as a natural source in meal preparation may help to reduce cost of feed preparation, improve, maintain and supplement to meet daily requirements of essential nutrients by reducing the use of synthetic food supplements.

Blockchain is a technology based on cryptography which uses the principle of distributed ledgers (distributed ledgers) distribution) provides a variety of advantages, especially in security matters. Use of distributed ledgers as the basis of blockchain technology turns out to be very similar to that concept
is very familiar among libraries, namely LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Save). This is the meeting point between blockchain technology and libraries. Starting from here, possibilities open up for libraries to implement blockchain technology. Various potential applications of blockchain technology for libraries include: procurement and maintenance of library materials, innovation in circulation services, cataloging, guaranteed protection of personal data and library membership cards, e-book publishing, support for scientific publications and digital rights management, management special collections, research support, financial literacy and UKTS library analysis. However, on the other hand, there are also challenges and obstacles that accompany efforts to implement blockchain technology in UKTS libraries, including: limited knowledge of blockchain technology, challenges in being able to choose the right blockchain, the large costs that must be incurred by libraries starting from implementation costs, maintenance costs to the costs of developing the blockchain system itself, and the last and quite sensitive issue is that there are still some people in scientific circles who think that the issue of personal data security in the blockchain system is not completely safe.

Published: September 2024

Enhancing national cultural self-confidence involves promoting and strengthening the protection and utilisation of traditional national villages. Studying how to protect and inherit the resources of these villages, as well as utilising existing resources in a sustainable manner, poses a challenging issue. Further research is needed to investigate the influence of regional culture on residential buildings in the mountainous areas of the Yao people in Guangxi, and to explore how traditional architectural elements can preserve their cultural essence using modern artistic language. The project aims to: 1. Examine how regional culture influences Yao ethnic minority houses in Guangxi's mountains; 2. Evaluate existing challenges and implement contemporary design for improvement; 3. Create sustainable and culturally significant Yao mountain dwellings. The research collected qualitative data from six towns using a combination of semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and reviewing internet and print news sources. The residential structures in Yaochi Mountain District, Guangxi exhibit unique regional cultural traits, although they also have deficiencies in several areas. This study find that the beauty of the natural environment remains constant but the architectural vestiges and cultural history show remarkable variance, both of which greatly contribute to sustainable development. This study found that traditional villages in Guangxi share a number of characteristics, including a severe deficiency in clean energy and a poor rate of carbon utilisation, during our investigation of the sustainable development of the spatial dimension of the ecological legacy of these communities. According to a weight analysis performed at the sub-index factor level, the variety of building uses is the most important indicator of the spatial sustainability of traditional villages in Guangxi. The outcomes of this study  provided a valuable empirical evidence and practical suggestions for areas and nations involved in the preservation of cultural heritage and the investigation of sustainable rural development.

infrared (NIR) photodetection is a feasible strategy. Thus, Y3Al5O12:Yb 3+ , Er3+ up-conversion
nanoparticles are deposited on the surface of a monolayer MoS2 by flame aerosol deposition (FAD),
significantly extending their photoelectric response range to the near-infrared 980 nm. The
Y3Al5O12:Yb 3+ , Er3+ nanoparticles synthesized by flame can achieve efficient up-conversion from
near-infrared (~980 nm) to visible light (~450, ~550, ~650 nm). Therefore, the visible light can be
subsequently absorbed by monolayer MoS2. The carefully designed Y3Al5O12:Yb 3+ , Er3+ /MoS2
photodetector shows strong responsivity and highly specific detectivity in the near-infrared spectrum.
Under the bias voltage of 3 V and laser irradiation of 980 nm at 2.8 μW, the newly designed MoS2
device achieves a responsivity of 16.82 A/W and a specific detectivity of 1.47×10 12 Jones, as the
traditional monolayer MoS2 usually responds to zero. This work can further expand the application
of two-dimensional materials and their composites in near-infrared photoelectric detection

This paper delves into the potential and practical challenges of blockchain in government
governance. As a cutting-edge development in information and communication technology,
blockchain offers unique capabilities in data management and value transfer, presenting new
solutions for government governance. The article begins with an overview of the definition,
connotation, and current application status of blockchain technology, and then constructs typical
scenarios where blockchain technology empowers government governance, including electronic
credentials, government data circulation, data resource sharing, collaborative office work, and
digital rural revitalization. By realizing these scenarios, the paper analyzes the main problems and
challenges faced by blockchain technology in government governance, such as inadequate
infrastructure, data leakage risks, and difficulties in inter-departmental collaboration. Finally, a
series of suggestions and prospects are put forward to promote the effective application of
blockchain technology in digital government affairs, enhancing the transparency, efficiency, and
intelligent level of government governance
Building Trust and Loyalty in the Workplace
Authors: Westover Jonathan
Published: September 2024

This article explores practical strategies for managers and executives to increase trust and loyalty in employee relationships. The article outlines how trust is built over time through consistency, integrity, and care. Specific guidance is provided around communicating expectations, pay transparency, work-life balance, career development, culture, and recognition. Fulfilling implicit and explicit psychological contracts through these approaches deepens employee loyalty and commitment. Case studies then demonstrate how appreciation, recognition, and social/fun activities further strengthen bonds. Real-world industry examples show the concepts applied successfully in technology, healthcare, and retail contexts. The article argues that prioritizing relationships through integrity and compassion lays the groundwork for resilient, high-performing organizational cultures where leaders leave a lasting positive legacy.
Attitudes Toward and Preferences for Male and Female Personal Trainers
Authors: Fisher James P. , Platts Catherine , Stopforth Marie
Published: September 2024

Previous research has considered the perceptions of athletes towards gender of coach and strength and conditioning coach. However, to date there appears little research considering the perceptions of clients towards gender of personal trainer. The purpose of this study was to investigate male and females perceptions of same- or opposite-gender personal trainers. Four hundred and two (male = 201, female = 201) undergraduate University student participants completed an adapted version of the Attitudes of Athletes toward Male versus Female Coaches Questionnaire (AAMFC-Q; 23). A 2 x 2 multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) revealed that neither males nor females showed any preference for gender of hypothetical personal trainer (p > 0.05) although both males and females reported that a personal trainer of the opposite gender might make it harder to concentrate (p < 0.05). Previous research has reported a preference for male coaches/strength and conditioning coaches from both male and female athletes. However, this study suggests that there is no such gender bias towards personal trainers in this population.

This study was designed to compare the acute effect of self-myofascial release (SMR), postural alignment exercises, and static stretching on joint range-of-motion. Our sample included 27 participants (n = 14 males and n = 13 females) who had below average joint range-of-motion (specifically a sit-and-reach score of 13.5 inches [34.3 cm] or less). All were university students 18–27 years randomly assigned to complete two 30–40-minute data collection sessions with each testing session consisting of three sit-and-reach measurements (which involved lumbar spinal flexion, hip flexion, knee extension, and ankle dorsiflexion) interspersed with two treatments. Each treatment included foam-rolling, postural alignment exercises, or static stretching. Participants were assigned to complete session 1 and session 2 on two separate days, 24 hours to 48 hours apart. The data were analyzed so carryover effects could be estimated and showed that no single acute treatment significantly increased posterior mean sit-and-reach scores. However, significant gains (95% posterior probability limits) were realized with both postural alignment exercises and static stretching when used in combination with foam-rolling. For example, the posterior means equaled 1.71 inches (4.34 cm) when postural alignment exercises were followed by foam-rolling; 1.76 inches (4.47 cm) when foam-rolling was followed by static stretching; 1.49 inches (3.78 cm) when static stretching was followed by foam-rolling; and 1.18 inches (2.99 cm) when foam-rolling was followed by postural alignment exercises. Our results demonstrate that an acute treatment of foam-rolling significantly increased joint range-of-motion in participants with below average joint range-of-motion when combined with either postural alignment exercises or static stretching.

Published: September 2024

Background & Objective: The CTX-M-15 are beta-lactamases that break down practically all the antibiotics that belong to the beta-lactam group resulting in antibiotic resistance in bacteria. Several beta-lactam inhibitors can be used in combination with different cephalosporin antibiotics to treat infections caused by microbes that produce the CTX-M-15 enzyme. This study aims to use a multi-step virtual screening strategy to screen three new non—lactam inhibitors against CTX-M-15.
Methods: A study was designed and conducted in the Department of Biotechnology at the University of Central Punjab.  A multi-step virtual screening strategy was used to screen three new non—lactam inhibitors against CTX-M-15. The CTX-M-15 binding sites were explored to determine the possible target sites of the inhibitors. Compounds from the E-LEA3D were subjected to virtual screening, and their performance was evaluated based on the binding energies and various other factors. Using Auto Dock Vina, the docking complexes were formed and visualized in Pymol where their RMSD values and binding energies were compared.
Results: The best results were found in the case of Isoproterenol as it inhibited the lactamase activity of CTX-M 15 by forming a stable docked complex. The molecular docking simulations using Autodock Vina revealed favorable binding interactions, indicating the ability of Isoproterenol to bind to the active site.
Conclusion: The lactamase activity of CTX-M 15 was inhibited by Isoproterenol as they form a stable docked complex. Designing inhibitors against the CTX-M-15 type β-lactamase represents a promising avenue for combating drug-resistant bacteria.
