Activities that can stimulate children's fine motor skills in inclusive schools have not been implemented optimally by teachers. Therefore, this research aims to prove the effect of the activity of making collages from egg shells on the fine motor development of young children with special needs. This type of research is experimental research, with the pre-experimental design method using a one group pretest-posttest design research design. The research population is early childhood children with special needs in class 1 and class 2. Sampling was carried out using a purposive sampling technique. The research sample consisted of two classes with a total sample of 5 children. Data collection methods are observation and documentation methods. The research instrument uses observation guidelines and documentation checklist sheets. Data analysis techniques, statistical methods, descriptive analysis and inferential statistics. The results of research hypothesis testing were carried out using the paired sample t-test which showed that the sig. (2-tailed) < 0.05 (0.01 < 0.05). So it can be concluded that there is a significant influence from the activity of making collages from egg shells on the fine motor development of young children with special needs. It is hoped that the implications of this research will be a reference for activities to develop students' fine motor skills.

Published: February 2025

The study was conducted during July to October, 2020 at the Department of Veterinary Anatomy, College of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry, Nanaji Deshmukh Veterinary Science University, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India to investigate the histological and histochemical features of the hearts of 18 prenatal healthy goats (Capra hircus). The heart shape varied among the groups; groups I and II exhibited an ovoid shape, while group III had a flattened cone shape. Histological examinations revealed both superficial and deep cardiac muscle fibers in the atrial walls, forming muscular arches in the atrium. The ventricular myocardium was composed of three distinct layers of muscle fibers, with the middle layer being the thickest. The left ventricular wall was significantly thicker than the right. The cardiac valves were identified as endocardial flaps. Histochemical analysis showed that collagen and elastic fibers were more abundant in the atria than in the ventricles, with collagen primarily surrounding blood vessels. Reticular fibers formed networks in both the atria and ventricles. A weak to moderate periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) reaction was observed in the atria, ventricles, blood vessels, and atrioventricular cusps. Metachromasia was noted in both the atria and ventricles. Additionally, DNA content in atrial nuclei exhibited moderate staining across all age groups. These findings provide a detailed histological and histochemical description of prenatal goat heart development, contributing to the understanding of fetal cardiovascular maturation.

In this study, we propose the data envelopment analysis method as a scheme to determine the technical efficiency of a set of parametric inputs of the water absorption process when developing the oil palm particulate composite treated with an alkali solution. Although alkali-treated oil palm bunch composites have been analyzed previously for water absorption, a single parameter such as water absorption rate prevails in analyses. Unfortunately, multiple inputs and multiple outputs have been ignored and the efficiency evaluation of such composites has been missing in the literature. To address this gap, the present study exploits the linear programming theory and formulated models for each decision-making unit and solves that formulation for optimum value determination for inputs of the composites. This study investigates the technical efficiency of the water absorption in the oil palm empty fruit bunch composite development process. Overall, judging the performance of the parameters regarding the frequency of attaining 100% efficiency, analysis was performed on the average performance of all parameters in all sixteen scenarios. In this regard, the efficiency of particulate loading was 36.1%, for composite weight plus mold, it was 96.3% and for initial weight, the average efficiency score was 67.8%. It is suggestive that composite weight plus mold with an average efficiency of 96.3% is the best parameter while particulate loading with 36.1% is the worst parameter. Thus result is consistent with the result based on each scenario. From the perspective of DMUs, DMU11 with a score of 78.4% is the best ranking unit while DMU14 is the work ranking unit with an efficiency score of 60.9%. Besides, the average efficiency score for all the DMUs is 66.7%. The work is important to composite development engineers and for policy decision-making.

Published: February 2025

The rising diabetes prevalence in developing countries highlights a critical public health challenge linked to lifestyle changes and limited awareness of disease management. This study addresses the gap in understanding diabetes prevalence and management knowledge among sedentary occupational groups, such as tailors. This study aims to assess the prevalence of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and evaluate knowledge regarding its management among tailors in Hyderabad. This community-based cross-sectional study assessed the prevalence of DM and evaluated knowledge about its management among tailors in Hyderabad, a group particularly at risk due to their sedentary work environments and limited awareness of diabetes management. Data were collected from 170 tailors aged 30–60 years across four localities in Hyderabad using a structured questionnaire and random blood glucose level checks. Results indicated that 58.8% of participants had normal glucose levels, 25.3% were pre-diabetic, and 15.9% were diabetic. Diabetes (19.4%) and hypertension (22.9%) were common, though only 37.1% adhered to regular medication. Irregular dietary habits were noted, with 61.8% skipping meals occasionally and 45% consuming outside food monthly. The mean blood glucose level was 146.85 mg/dL (SE: 3.92 mg/dL), with 97.1% consuming tea or coffee daily and 48.2% eating street food monthly. This study highlighted that Tailors, who tend to have sedentary work environments, are at particular risk due to a lack of awareness about diabetes, its management, proper nutrition normal Blood glucose, values and complications of DM.

Exclusive breastfeeding coverage in Bogor Regency remains low, affecting infant growth and development during the first six months of life. Paternal support, as a key determinant, has been insufficiently explored. This study assessed the types of support fathers provide to breastfeeding mothers. Exclusive breastfeeding is a critical effort to support the optimal growth and development of infants during the first 6 months of life. Nevertheless, exclusive breastfeeding coverage continues to be insufficient in certain regions, including Bogor Regency. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between paternal support and the success of exclusive breastfeeding. The study employed a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach, involving 221 parent pairs selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire that assessed various forms of paternal support, including physical, emotional, and educational assistance. The data were analyzed using chi-square tests to determine the statistical associations. The results revealed that instrumental support—such as helping to change diapers and holding the baby—was not significantly associated with exclusive breastfeeding practices (p > 0.05). Conversely, paternal support in the form of accompanying mothers during consultations with health workers demonstrated a significant association with exclusive breastfeeding success (p = 0.023 < 0.05) This study confirms the critical role of educative and emotional support from fathers in promoting exclusive breastfeeding success. The findings highlight the strategic role of fathers in promoting exclusive breastfeeding and support the development of family-based interventions to increase its coverage.

The digital revolution brought about a rapid rise in the popularity of digital technologies, reshaping every aspect of life. Technological progress and frequent use of electronic devices have led to vision problems known as Computer Vision Syndrome or Digital Eye Strain. Digital eye strain, asthenopia, and computer vision syndrome refer to a group of symptoms resulting from using digital screens, including eye irritation and dryness, accommodation and convergence issues, and musculoskeletal pains. The severity of these symptoms depends on exposure time, the nature of visual tasks, working conditions, and individual visual abilities. Treatment of digital eye strain depends on diagnostic results and underlying conditions, and any occurring symptoms, such as asthenopia or poor ergonomic setup, should be addressed according to professional guidelines. The aim of this paper is to present the issue of digital eye strain and propose solutions that can aid in diagnosing and effectively combating its symptoms.
The challenges of sustainability in urban planning (the metropolis of Tehran)
Authors: Zairi Kermatollah , Zare Shima , Abbas Rasoul Adnan
Published: February 2025

Rapid population growth and inadequate adherence to scientific and managerial principles in urban planning have intensified numerous challenges, pushing major Iranian cities toward instability. Tehran, as the capital and one of the most urbanized regions in the country, faces significant sustainability threats that require immediate attention. These challenges are not unique to Tehran but represent a broader issue faced by rapidly urbanizing cities worldwide, particularly in developing countries. Addressing such challenges is critical to fostering sustainable development on a global scale. While urban sustainability has been extensively studied, limited research has focused on the indicators of urban instability and their tangible impacts on sustainable urban planning. This study aims to bridge this gap by identifying and analyzing key factors contributing to urban instability across economic, environmental, and social dimensions, with Tehran serving as a representative case. The findings reveal that economic instability is driven by uncertainty in economic policies, fluctuating housing prices, non-standard housing conditions, income disparity, unemployment, and cost of living pressures. Environmental instability is exacerbated by climate change, urban heat islands, floods, transportation mismanagement, energy insecurity, pollution, and insufficient green infrastructure. Social instability arises from limited social interaction, unequal access to services, weak community participation, social harms, and diminished urban safety and welfare. By framing these local challenges within a global context, the study underscores the interconnectedness of these dimensions and highlights the necessity for integrated, evidence-based approaches that combine local insights with global best practices. The findings aim to contribute to the broader discourse on sustainable urban development by offering actionable insights and strategies that can be adapted and implemented in other rapidly urbanizing cities. This research serves as a guide for policymakers, urban planners, and stakeholders worldwide, emphasizing the importance of holistic and resilient urban strategies to address the multifaceted challenges of sustainability and instability.

Published: February 2025

Electricity consumption in Europe has risen significantly in recent years, with households being the largest consumers of final electricity. Managing and reducing residential power consumption is critical for achieving efficient and sustainable energy management, conserving financial resources, and mitigating environmental effects. Many studies have used statistical models such as linear, multinomial, ridge, polynomial, and LASSO regression to examine and understand the determinants of residential energy consumption. However, these models are limited to capturing only direct effects among the determinants of household energy consumption. This study addresses these limitations by applying a path analysis model that captures the direct and indirect effects. Numerical and theoretical comparisons that demonstrate its advantages and efficiency are also given. The results show that Sub-metering components associated with specific uses, like cooking or water heating, have significant indirect impacts on global intensity through active power and that the voltage affects negatively the global power (active and reactive) due to the physical and behavioral mechanisms. Our findings provide an in-depth understanding of household electricity power consumption. This will improve forecasting and enable real-time energy management tools, extending to the design of precise energy efficiency policies to achieve SDG 7’s objectives.
La création des places publiques urbaines féministes
Authors: Levy Charmain , Paré Sylvie
Published: February 2025

Récemment, certaines villes ont créé des places publiques qui reconnaissent la contribution des femmes à la société moderne et dans certains cas, l'urbanisme féministe est devenu un champ d'action. Cet article analyse deux cas de places publiques dédiées aux féministes : la Place des Montréalaises à Montréal et la Place des Pionnières à Montevideo. La première est un grand projet en cours de développement. Sa construction est prévue sur un viaduc d'autoroute situé entre le Vieux-Montréal et le centre-ville. À Montevideo, l'administration progressiste a décidé en 2017 de créer une place publique dédiée aux féministes. Nous examinons les négociations derrière ces projets urbains, la dynamique entre les parties prenantes et ce que cet espace public signifie pour elles. Ancrées dans une approche féministe et intersectionnelle, nous montrons comment la mobilisation et la coordination des femmes de la société civile avec les fémocrates municipaux et les professionnels jouent un rôle important dans les dynamiques de pouvoir.

Objective:
This study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitude, perceptions, and trust of the general public towards robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) in the Western Region of Saudi Arabia.
Methods:
A descriptive cross-sectional design was employed, and data were collected over two months using a validated self-administered electronic questionnaire. A total of 1,107 participants were recruited via random sampling. Descriptive statistics, bivariate analysis, and logistic regression were performed to evaluate knowledge levels and associated predictors.
Results:
The findings revealed that 56.7% of participants were aware of RAS, but only 40.8% believed it was available in Saudi Arabia. Younger participants (aged 18–30 years) demonstrated better knowledge, likely due to greater exposure to technology. While 25% expressed high trust in RAS, 35.5% remained hesitant due to concerns about safety, cost, and system malfunctions. Key barriers identified included limited access to robotic systems in private hospitals and a lack of institutional support.
Conclusion:
The study highlighted significant knowledge gaps and mixed attitudes towards RAS among the public in the Western Region of Saudi Arabia. Increasing public awareness through targeted educational campaigns and social media, alongside further research into cultural factors and patient outcomes, is essential to improve acceptance and trust in robotic-assisted surgery.
Między prawem do błędu a psychologiczną potrzebą domknięcia poznawczego
Authors: Biedrzycki Krzysztof
Published: February 2025

The fear of interpretation at school is a result of the fear of error present among students during the lecture. The risk of error is a part of learning. It is one of its pillars. Knowledge and skills do not progress without errors. Therefore, it is important not to punish students for making mistakes but give feedback concerning the mechanism of thinking, especially in the process of interpretation. The fear is a result of the anxiety that contact with literature and its interpretation can change one’s thinking and feelings. Everybody needs to stay in the circle of his or her inner convictions, which is the phenomenon of cognitive closure. Literary work often subverts the stable and coherent view of reality. Thus, when it comes to interpretation, the task of the teacher is, on the one hand, to inspire independent thinking and, on the other hand, to check the need for cognitive closure.

Anotaciones sobre la filosofía moral del Dante Alighieri de Antonio Gómez Robledo
Authors: Buganza Torio Jacob
Published: February 2025

Salvo algún artículo académico y periodístico, la obra filosófica de Gómez Robledo está descuidada; hay que recuperarla y no dejar que sea sepultada en el olvido. Una de las obras más emblemáticas de su pensamiento, puesto que se aprecia en ella la madurez de su reflexión, el conocimiento profundo de numerosos autores, la solidez de su argumentación, es Dante Alighieri. En su versión original, de 1975, el libro aparece publicado en dos tomos, pero en la segunda edición de 2005, a cargo de El Colegio Nacional, se compendia en un solo volumen. No es posible recuperar todos los temas que aparecen en el libro, pero sí los concernientes a la filosofía moral, aunque sea sólo para señalarlos. La holgura con que Gómez Robledo trabaja la temática es sobresaliente y, por ello, es valioso contar con un trabajo que recupere la ética contenida en su Dante Alighieri.

Sustainability of National Development Program During Transition of Leadership In Indonesia
Authors: Arifin Firdaus
Published: February 2025

The sustainability of national development programs in Indonesia is often hindered by leadership transitions, which create uncertainty in the implementation of long-term policies. This study aims to analyze the weaknesses of the existing legal framework, particularly Law No. 59 of 2024 concerning the National Long-Term Development Plan (RPJPN), in ensuring the continuity of development programs amidst political dynamics. A normative approach with qualitative juridical analysis was employed, examining relevant legislation and literature. The findings reveal that the current legal framework needs to be more robust to protect strategic programs from policy changes caused by government transitions. Additionally, the lack of flexibility within the legal instruments makes it difficult to adapt to political changes. This study recommends more responsive and adaptive legal reforms and enhances synergy between central and regional governments to ensure policy stability. These findings contribute to the theoretical development of development law and have practical implications for policymakers in Indonesia, particularly in designing a more robust and stable legal framework to support long-term development.

The current criminal procedure legislation of the Republic of Azerbaijan (unfortunately) does not provide for the goals and objectives declared in the Criminal Procedure Code, and
is not an engine, but a brake on criminal policy. At present, the philosophy of the criminal procedure of Azerbaijan is not a system of methodological principles, but a conglomerate of paradoxes,
and not those that have geniuses as friends (A.S. Pushkin).
Therefore, we propose to begin work on a new Criminal Procedure Code, with the invitation
of specialists, and without authors.

“Um sábio que morre é como uma biblioteca que se queima”, diz um antigo ditado popular. Por alguma razão, essa frase me faz lembrar um amigo e colega querido cuja saudade me aperta o peito. Conheci poucas pessoas que, como o professor Wellington Gil, combinassem intelecto e sentimento de uma maneira tão equilibrada. Conheci poucos que, como ele, tenham sido sábios nas letras e nas ciências, mas também nos relacionamentos. Conheci poucos que, amando o que faziam, tenham, com igual força e intensidade, amado genuinamente àqueles a quem serviram. Nesta breve exposição, serão apresentadas memórias em respeito a Wellington Gil, que por dez anos, atuou como professor na Faculdade Adventista da Bahia (FADBA) e Seminário Adventista Latino-Americano de Teologia (SALT).

UMA BREVE ANÁLISE DA LEI DO ALTAR EM ÊXODO 20:25
Authors: Marques Madison Melo , Leal Jônatas de Mattos
Published: February 2025

O artigo trata da lei do altar em Êxodo 20:25 “Se me levantares um altar de pedras, não o farás de pedras lavradas; pois, se sobre ele manejares a tua ferramenta, profaná-lo-ás.” Seu objetivo é estudar como o ato de utilizar uma ferramenta sobre as pedras do altar o profanaria e busca entender também como a realização ou não desta ação pode estabelecer limites entre a verdadeira e a falsa adoração. A pesquisa abrangeu a tradução do texto a partir da Bíblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia e sua comparação com versões modernas, ainda levou em consideração o contexto histórico, cultural e literário, assim como, o contexto bíblico, sua teologia e o conceito de altar no Pentateuco e de profanação nos altares do Antigo Testamento. Compreendeu-se que existe uma importante lição por trás desta lei aparentemente simples, Javé tem grandiosos planos para Seus filhos e deseja protegê-los de suas inclinações naturais e das forças externas que buscam separá-los dEle.

Authors: Mathur Neeraj Narayan , Narang Ekta
Published: February 2025

Objective

This study was designed to assess hearing loss in children with cerebral palsy (CP) using brainstem evoked response audiometry (BERA), otoacoustic emissions (OAE), pure-tone audiometry (PTA), and impedance audiometry. The prevalence of hearing loss was studied in this group and the location of lesion causing hearing loss was found using the above tests. We also compared the efficacy of OAE and BERA as screening modality for the detection of hearing impairment in such children.

Material and Methods

The study was conducted on 100 patients (200 ears) with CP in the age group of 1–18 years. The patients were selected randomly from those presenting to the Outpatient Department (OPD) with a diagnosis of CP in Kalawati Saran Children’s Hospital. Investigations like BERA, transient evoked OAE (TEOAE), distortion product OAE (DPOAE), PTA, and impedance audiometry were done on them.

Results

On BERA, 58.5% children passed as per our criteria, and 41.5% failed the test. In all, 78% cases showed abnormal morphology of wave V. More than 50% of those who passed on BERA had poor morphology of wave V. Latency of wave V at 80 dB was prolonged in most cases. The mean latency of wave V was 6.159 msec. About 83.5% children failed on OAE testing according to our criteria, while only 16.5% passed.

Conclusion

The prevalence of hearing loss was calculated to be 41.5%. In most cases, the site of the lesion was found to be cochlea, as OAE was absent in most cases (83.5% of patients tested). OAE was found to be a less efficacious test as compared to BERA in detecting hearing loss.

Background & objectives

Diabetes distress (DD) is a mental condition that can develop in people with diabetes and shares characteristics with stress, anxiety, and depression. The aim was to determine the effect of Jacobson’s Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) therapy on DD, anxiety, glycemic control, hemodynamic and lipid measures among people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM).

Methods

A total of 80 participants were recruited for this prospective randomised intervention study and divided into two groups equally; group 1 (Control) (n=40) received general counselling for stress reduction and group 2 (Intervention) (n=40) received PMR therapy and general counselling for stress reduction. A pre-, and post-test was done with diabetes distress Scale (DDS) and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) Scales. Baseline data on anthropometric, hemodynamic, biochemical details were collected and repeated after three months. Thirty-six participants, with four dropouts in each group, reported for follow up. Diabetes medication regimens in both groups remained unchanged throughout the study period.

Results

There was a significant reduction in the total mean scores of DDS (Pre vs. Post) (3.8 vs. 1.6) and GAD Scale (17.9 vs. 6.3; P<0.0001) in the intervention group. The PMR therapy group showed a significant reduction in HbA1c, fasting and post prandial (PP) glucose levels with HbA1c (baseline vs. follow up; 9.2% vs. 7.6%), fasting (194.5 mg/dl vs. 142.4 mg/dl) and PP glucose levels (266.5 mg/dl vs. 175.5 mg/dl) (P=0.001) whereas control group showed an increase in HbA1c, fasting and PP glucose levels. The impact of PMR therapy was also reflected in the lipid profile. Seventy per cent of the intervention group participants followed PMR therapy regularly.

Interpretation & conclusions

Our study findings highlighted that PMR therapy had a positive effect on diabetes distress and anxiety among people with T2DM. It also improved glycemic control and can be used as an adjunctive to the medications for better management of T2DM.

Published: February 2025

Background & objectives

Chronic airway inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness are typical pathophysiological features of cough variant asthma. However, the characteristics of airway inflammation and airflow restriction in individuals with non-asthmatic chronic cough and their guiding value of clinical treatment remain to be determined. This study explored the characteristics and correlations between fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and impulse oscillometry (IOS) in non-asthmatic individuals with chronic cough. It also investigated the possibility of chronic cough developing into asthma.

Methods

In total, 65 study participants with negative bronchial provocation test (BPT) were included in this retrospective study. Data were extracted from chronic cough patients’ electronic medical records, including the demographics, FeNO, IOS and spirometric parameters before and after BPT. Study participants were divided into high-FeNO group (FeNO≥25 ppb) and low-FeNO group (FeNO< 25 ppb) based on FeNO levels. The correlation between the markers was investigated using the Spearman rank correlation test.

Results

We observed that individuals with non-asthmatic chronic cough exhibited significant increases in Z5, Fres, R5 and R5-R20 after BPT compared to before BPT. In addition, the IOS values of Z5, Fres, R5, and Rc were higher in the low-FeNO group than in the high-FeNO group, but a decrease in FEV1. Correlation analysis: IOS parameters showed a negative correlation with FeNO. However, there were positive correlations of FeNO with FEV1 and PEF.

Interpretation & conclusions

Our findings showed that individuals with non-asthmatic chronic cough may have varying levels of small airway resistance and inflammation severity. A combined use of FeNO and IOS measurements is conducive to the early clinical treatment of individuals with non-asthmatic chronic cough.

Интерес к описанию Исследователя возникает в связи с признанием важности его присутствия, как самостоятельного объекта исследования. Например, в физике он присутствует в качестве Наблюдателя. В этом качестве он присутствует в лингвистике, как один из важных глубинных падежей и скрытый участник процесса языкового общения. В теории управления понятие Наблюдатель включается в понятие Исследователь, который осуществляет моделирование с целью принятия управленческих решений. Понятие «Исследователь» сохраняет свое значение в информатике, присутствуя в форме сред проектирования компьютерных информационных систем, таких как блок-схемы программ, ER-диаграммы, а также в форме самих онтологий, например, таких, как онтология SUMO и бриллиант Совы.
