Authors: Alhawas Bassam , Abdulmohsen Mohamad , Abdelghani Mohammed , Almathen Faisal , Sheikh Ahmed , Raheem Sherief
Published: February 2024

Background:
Biostimulation is a management practice that improves the reproductive parameters, potentiates the desire, and improves the reproductive efficiency during the short breeding season in camels.
Aim:
This study aims to investigate the concurrent changes in hormonal profiles in response to management and behavioral situations on camel farms in the Eastern region of Saudi Arabia.
Methods:
A total of 10 male and 50 female camels were used in this study. The hormonal profile of male camels was evaluated weekly starting from December to August.
Results:
The results show that both serum testosterone and cortisol levels increased (P < 0.01) from December to March compared to April to August. A strong negative correlation was observed between testosterone levels and temperature (r = -0.81, P<0.05), and a similarly robust negative correlation was found between cortisol levels and temperature (r = -0.83, P<0.05). The dominant rutting males showed higher levels of testosterone than the submissive males. Serum testosterone levels increased (P < 0.01) in males out of rutting after hearing the sounds of other couples before and during mating.
Conclusion:
Hearing sounds emitted during mating increases the testosterone output, and improves the libido of male camels during the non-rutting period. It is important to keep two individually housed males for mating purposes. One male joins the herd alone in winter (winter rutter), and the other joins in spring (spring rutter), this could keep the libido extended rutting and improve the reproductive performance in camel herds.

Authors: Zaki Mahmoud , All Amr , Attia Amira , Dahshan Hesham , Ashery Manal , Megahed Ayman
Published: February 2024

Background:
The pathogens E. coli and S. enterica that caused substantial health problems and financial losses were believed to have originated primarily from Egypt's dairy farms.
Aim:
The purpose of this study was to ascertain the occurrence of E. coli and S. enterica in three large dairy farms located in the Egyptian governorate of Sharkia. Furthermore, biochemical and serological characteristics of the isolated isolates were described. Further analysis revealed that several E. coli serovars had the genes stx1, stx2, eaeA, and hylA, while invA, stn, and hilA genes were found in several S. enterica serotypes using a multi-plex PCR.
Methods:
A total of 540 samples of fresh raw cow milk, water, feedstuffs, feces, (108 each), as well as swabs from feeders, milker hands and cattle crushes (36 each ), were gathered and analyzed.
Results:
The recovery of E. coli from various sampling sources was shown to have an overall prevalence of 62.2% (336/540) in the results. Fecal samples had isolated S. enterica, with a frequency of 0.74% (4/540). The existence of various groups of serovars, such as O26, O44, O55, O78 and O111 for E. coli and S. enteritidis, S. typhimurium and S. inganda for S. enterica was revealed by serological identification of the two species. However, it was discovered that a number of E. coli serovars had much higher percentages of the eaeA and hylA genes as well as shiga-toxin types 1 and 2 (stx1 and stx2). The presence of the invA gene, a diagnostic marker for S. enterica was 100% across all serovars. Salmonella enteritidis possessed both the enterotoxin gene (stn) and the hyper-invasive locus gene (hilA). Salmonella typhimurium had the hilA gene, whereas Sal. inganda had the stn gene.
Conclusion:
E. coli and S. enterica recovered in this study have significant genetic risk factors for high pathogenicity and virulence, posing a real threat to dairy population productivity and health, which could spread to the general public through milk.
The efficacy of simultaneous successive classic and variant infectious bronchitis virus vaccines versus circulating variant II Egyptian field virus
Authors: Eid Amal , Mahmoud Ali , Hamouda Esraa , Metwally Mohamed , Eldin Rasha , ElBakrey Reham
Published: February 2024

Background:
Being a ubiquitous, highly contagious virus with a continuous mutation and a large number of evolutions worldwide, the infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) continues to wreak problems among Egyptian chickens and generate economic losses. The commonly applied IBV vaccination protocols in broilers include alternatives to classic and/or variant attenuated live virus vaccines.
Aim:
The current study targeted to assess the protective efficacy of concurrent and successive Ma5 and 4/91 vaccine strain regimens against the field variant II IBV strain (IBV-EGY-ZU/Ck-127/2021) in chickens.
Methods:
Commercial broiler chickens were vaccinated with Ma5 and 4/91 strains simultaneously at 1 and 14 days of age. The evaluation parameters included clinical protection and humoral and early innate immunity aspects in the renal tissues of vaccinated and infected birds.
Results:
The vaccine regimen ameliorated the clinical and histopathological lesions against variant II IBV and enhanced body gain as well as it succeeded in preventing tracheal shedding and minimizing cloacal shedding of the field virus. The IL-1β mRNA gene expression was evident as early as 24 hours, with highly significant upregulation at 48 hours post-vaccination and 24 hours post-challenge in vaccinated birds. Remarkable upregulation was observed in OAS expression 48 hours post-challenge in vaccinated and unvaccinated infected birds. The vaccinated birds developed a significant antibody titer of 704.0±111.98 at 28 days of age, with a consistent antibody titer increase after the challenge.
Conclusion:
Overall, a combination of heterologous protectotype commercial vaccines achieved good protection against the Egyptian variant II IBV strain. This vaccine program could be an effective protocol against the threat posed by IBV viruses circulating in the Egyptian field.
Phagostimulatory dynamics of adenine nucleotides in mosquitoes : advancing a taste-based delivery method for vector control agents
Authors: Lukenge Matthew
Published: February 2024

The mosquitoes Aedes aegypti and Anopheles gambiae are vectors of major medical importance, incriminated in over half a million lives lost annually. While there has been significant focus on understanding the olfaction mechanisms underlying host-seeking in mosquitoes for the development of odour-based control tools, little is known about the mechanisms underlying gustation in blood feeding, the ultimate behaviour in the change of events leading up to disease transmission. An increased understanding of these gustatory mechanisms may be vital for advancing taste-based alternative vector control tools. Using a no-choice membrane feeding assay (papers II, III, and IV) and a spectrophotometric analysis (paper II), the feeding response of the two vectors to blood-derived adenine nucleotide diets, as proxies, and a reliable signal, for blood, was examined. While these experiments revealed that Ae. aegypti is more sensitive than An. gambiae (paper II) to the adenine nucleotide diets, both species maintained the same selectivity to the diets, with a dose-dependent bimodal feeding pattern. The latter expands the all-or-none blood-feeding theory for haematophagous arthropods to include an initial tasting step (paper II). Adenine nucleotides also regulated the proportion of An. gambiae prediuresing in a dose-dependent manner, but did not affect the volume engorged or prediuresed (paper II). A transcriptome analysis of the labrum identified putative genes that are involved in the detection and assessment of blood modalities (paper III). A shift from a high abundance of genes with structural function in the teneral age libraries to genes with cellular, neuro-communicative and modulatory function, including putative ATP receptors, in the 3 days-post-eclosion libraries was observed, providing blood feeding mosquitoes with a structurally sturdy and chemosensory-competent blood feeding organ (paper IV). The assessment of whether the ATP sensory pathway may be a viable way of overcoming the aversive effects of antifeedants and toxicants revealed its superiority over the sugar sensory pathway. ATP induced a reflexive engorgement on toxic meals, which were directed to the midgut, in contrast to sugar-induced meals, which were directed to the crop, an observation that correlated with the rapid mortality rates. Taken together, this study expanded our mechanistic understanding of the phagostimulatory dynamics of adenine nucleotides in Ae. aegypti and An. gambiae, and the associated putative labral detection receptors in Ae. aegypti, with the establishment of a novel workflow for advancing taste-based vector control tools.

Pendidikan harus dilaksanakan secara optimal sehingga dapat memberikan dampak positif terhadap perkembangan bangsa. Ilmu Pengetahuan Sosial (IPS) merupakan ilmu yang mengkaji seperangkat peristiwa, fakta, konsep dan generalisasi yang berkaitan dengan isu sosial. Tapi kenyataan menunjukkan bahwa pembelajaran IPS belum meningkatkan prestasi belajar siswa sebagaimana yang diharapkan. Dalam pembelajaran IPS, guru masih menggunakan metode ceramah/konvensional, pada saat proses pembelajaran. Guru  masih kurang kreatif dan inovatif untuk mengembangkan teknik pembelajaran. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah Penelitian Tindakan Kelas (PTK) yang terdiri dari dua siklus. Alat pengumpul data yang digunakan adalah lembar tes dan lembar observasi sedangkan teknik pengumpulan datanya yaitu teknik tes dan teknik observasi.

Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terjadi peningkatan skor aktivitas siswa dalam pembelajaran dengan skor rata-rata aktivitas siswa siklus I adalah  8,5 dengan kategori “cukup aktif” dan pada siklus II meningkat menjadi 13 dengan kategori “aktif”. Skor rata-rata aktivitas guru siklus I yaitu 10,5 dengan kategori  “baik” dan pada siklus II meningkaat menjadi yaitu 15 dengan kategori “sangar baik”. Ketuntasan belajar pada siklus I sebesar 62% dan pada siklus II meningkat menjadi 90%. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa penerapan teknik pembelajaran Media Audio Visual dapat meningkatkan prestasi belajar siswa pada mata pelajaran IPS kelas VIII-A di SMPN 3 Woja.

Therapeutic approach to emotional reactions accompanied with thermal skin injury – from basic to epidemiological research
Authors: Krstic Bojana , Krstic Milos , Selakovic Dragica , Jovicic Nemanja , Rosic Gvozden
Published: February 2024

In this editorial, we discuss the status of a therapeutic approach to emotional reactions accompanying thermal skin injuries. Burns are considered a major health problem, as well as an economic and social problem, with potentially devastating and life-changing consequences. They affect a wide range of patients with different damage mechanisms, varied depths, and localizations of the burns. The most common are thermal burns, with more than 11 million occurrences annually according to the World Health Organization data. Thermal skin injuries are among the most tragic and catastrophic injuries, almost unsurpassed in terms of severity, morbidity, and mortality, as well as functional, aesthetic, social, economic, and psychological consequences. Burn survivors face stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, body deformity, social isolation, unemployment, financial burden, and family problems. The advances in acute burn care have allowed researchers and physicians to pay more attention to other effects of burns, focusing on psychological consequences in particular. Apart from the significant improvements in routine protocols, it seems useful to take care of psychological disturbances that occur simultaneously but may emerge as the most lasting outcome of those injuries. In that sense, various standards and additional approaches may be involved to achieve overall recovery.
Disparities in the impact of economic well-being on self-esteem in adulthood: Race and ethnicity
Authors: Lee Jaewon
Published: February 2024

BACKGROUND

Most studies have defined economic well-being as socioeconomic status, with little attention given to whether other indicators influence self-esteem. Little is known about racial/ethnic disparities in the relationship between economic well-being and self-esteem during adulthood.

AIM

To explore the impact of economic well-being on self-esteem in adulthood and differences in the association across race/ethnicity.

METHODS

The current study used data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979. The final sample consisted of 2267 African Americans, 1425 Hispanics, and 3678 non-Hispanic Whites. Ordinary linear regression analyses and logistic regression analyses were conducted.

RESULTS

African Americans and Hispanics were more likely to be in poverty in comparison with non-Hispanic Whites. More African Americans were unemployed than Whites. Those who received fringe benefits, were more satisfied with jobs, and were employed were more likely to have higher levels of self-esteem. Poverty was negatively associated with self-esteem. Interaction effects were found between African Americans and job satisfaction predicting self-esteem.

CONCLUSION

The role of employers is important in cultivating employees’ self-esteem. Satisfactory outcomes or feelings of happiness from the workplace may be more important to non-Hispanic Whites compared to African Americans and Hispanics.

Gênero, biopolítica e relações de poder: a fundamentalidade de políticas públicas de educação para mulheres
Authors: Costa Valesca Brasil , Rosa Geraldo Antônio da , Canci Chanauana de Azevedo
Published: February 2024

Abordamos questões de gênero e biopolítica, relacionando-os e estabelecendo as políticas de educação como mecanismos de empoderamento feminino diante das relações de poder. Revisitamos a história das mulheres na sociedade e o domínio exercido pelo Estado ao longo do tempo sobre a comunidade feminina, limitando e impedindo seu acesso à espaços fundamentais, em momentos decisivos na construção social. Por meio de políticas educacionais é possível resguardar as mulheres, promovendo sua afirmação enquanto sujeitos proativos socialmente. Neste ensaio teórico, propomos uma reflexão sobre o papel das políticas na articulação e execução de ações direcionadas ao acesso à educação pelas mulheres. Consideramos essencial o incentivo à organização feminina, conscientização da história de exclusão e submissão social, e com isso, a articulação de movimentos em prol dos direitos e defesa das conquistas das mulheres, para exigir do ente estatal políticas públicas educacionais contributivas e efetivas quanto ao seu acesso à educação e profissionalização.
Gênero, sexualidade e raça/etnia no livro de ciências da natureza do PLNDEM-2021

Published: February 2024

Trata-se de uma pesquisa bibliográfica desenvolvida no âmbito de uma proposta mais ampla (APQ 02373-21 FAPEMIG), que tem como tema a (des)articulação de marcadores sociais da diferença em livros didáticos do Novo Ensino Médio. O artigo objetiva refletir criticamente sobre como os marcadores de gênero, sexualidade e raça/etnia foram tratados em dois volumes de uma coleção de livros didáticos de Ciências da Natureza e suas Tecnologias, recomendada pelo PNLD-EM 2021. Para isso, fez-se uso da análise categorial-temática em abordagem qualitativa. Como principais resultados, constatou-se que os livros apresentaram poucos textos que de fato dialogavam com alguns dos descritores pesquisados, sendo aqueles de maior destaque sexualidade e raça. Todavia não se aprofundaram na discussão ou não trouxeram reflexões detalhadas referentes à temática, apesar de terem sido diversas as oportunidades para isso ao longo do constructo da obra. Em conclusão, ainda que de boa qualidade em diversos aspectos, o material deixou de contribuir efetivamente no desenvolvimento da reflexão crítica e para a compreensão das articulações entre as categorias em discussão, deixando a essa responsabilidade, por conseguinte, para os livros de Ciências Humanas.

Authors: Araújo Giovana Lília Lemos de , Araújo Lima Deyseane Maria
Published: February 2024

Este estudo teve como objetivos gerais compreender a perspectiva dos pais acerca da educação sexual nas escolas relacionada à violência sexual contra crianças no âmbito intrafamiliar e específicos, a fim de investigar a perspectiva dos pais acerca da educação sexual e analisar o que eles entendem por violência sexual. Foi utilizada como metodologia uma abordagem qualitativa com delineamento transversal, sendo realizada snowball como técnica de amostragem através de uma cadeia de indicações entre participantes. Foi utilizado como instrumento de coleta e análise de dados, respectivamente, uma entrevista semiestruturada com cinco mães de crianças que tinham entre seis a onze anos de idade, matriculadas em uma escola particular de Fortaleza (CE) e análise de conteúdo baseado em Bardin. A entrevista foi realizada presencialmente e de forma online. Os resultados obtidos foram que as participantes apresentaram a educação sexual como prevenção à violência sexual contra crianças no âmbito intrafamiliar; duas participantes afirmaram ter tido educação sexual na família; a violência sexual surgiu como violência psicológica, abuso sexual com contato físico e exploração sexual; duas mães concordaram que a educação sexual deveria ser realizada nas escolas por ser um local de aprendizado e três delas concordaram pelos tabus por parte dos pais e da escola. Além disso, as participantes, embora tenham aprovado a educação sexual, afirmaram que ela deveria ocorrer de modo restrito, não sendo realizada pela sua maioria antes dos seis anos. Logo, concluem-se a necessidade de construir políticas públicas que viabilizem o desenvolvimento de debates entre escola e família de modo articulado.

This paper closely reads Nietzsche's early views on language and its relation with philosophy. The analysis is structured into several key themes. Firstly, regarding the musical and the metaphoric elements of language, Nietzsche suggests that language consists of two main elements: the “tonal subsoil” and “gesture symbolism.” Secondly, he asserts the primacy of the musical element. Thirdly, Nietzsche associates the musical element with the Dionysian and the metaphorical element with the Apollonian. On this basis, this paper explores the complex relation between language, philosophy, and “truth.” It delves into the metaphorical character of knowledge and its inherent inability to express anything in-itself due to its necessary connection with arbitrary gesture symbolism. Furthermore, regarding the genesis of language, Nietzsche's perspective on the telos of language, and claim of the illogical operation in the formation of concepts, characterized by the equalization of unequal things are discussed. Lastly, this paper scrutinizes the world that language gives us through concepts, highlighting its inherent powerlessness when compared with the world of appearances. Through these discussions, this paper aims to shed light on Nietzsche's profound insights into the complex nature of language–philosophy relation, some important early ones of which are widely neglected.

Asimismo, se mantiene la tendencia de que entre un 6-8% de los estudiantes a distancia son de origen latinoamericano. En estos cuatro an?os, no se observan diferencias importantes en las razones y motivaciones que estos estudiantes tuvieron para realizar estudios universitarios a distancia, asi? como los aspectos positivos o negativos de estudiar por esta modalidad o en el uso de las redes sociales, entre otros.
Promoting Academic Success through Resilience and Hardiness

There is no doubt that life itself is ever-changing. In fact, we are changing from the minute we are conceived. Some of this is part of our natural maturation process – or the unfolding of developmental changes across our lifespan. Life events and situations can also force us to change and, at times, can be stressful. Researchers have identified characteristics related to our personality that indicate how well we adapt – or don’t – to these changes. Studies on resiliency and hardiness (Bonnano, 2004; Maddi, 2002) have shown that those individuals high in resilience or hardiness are better equipped to handle this stress. Furthermore, some individuals have been shown to thrive under stressful circumstances.   College life includes academic, financial, and social demands which can place excessive stress on students. Some students may lack the coping or problem solving skills necessary to meet these new demands. Students who have a hard time coping may be at risk for academic failure and drop-out. According to Fentress & Collopy (2011), one contributing factor can be a low academic self-efficacy (i.e., their perceptions of their own academic ability). They found that higher dropout rates of first generation college students may be linked to low academic self-efficacy, whereas high self-efficacy may be linked to high retention and resiliency. Maddi (2002) also found that academic success was related to a construct he called hardiness.

Accurate and timely diagnostic methods for the management of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are very esssential because such diseases pose a big threat to public health. This systematic review gives a detailed overview of the wide range of diagnostic approaches, technologies, challenges and future possible ways in the STI diagnosis. A review of the traditional laboratory methods, nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs), point-of-care testing (POCT) and also new diagnostic technologies discuss their significant contributions to the revolution in STI diagnostics. Challenges including the antimicrobial resistance, evolving pathogens and also poor access to testing quality assurance have been identified which highlights the need for continued interventions aimed at addressing these challenges. Over the horizon, integrated syndromic approaches and further development of point-of-care testing technologies as well as precision medicine strategies based on novel biomarkers and technology present many exciting possibilities for improving the accuracy, accessibility, diagnoses usefulness. This review seeks to guide current and future practices in the clinical microbiology toward STI diagnosis, highlighting innovations and challenges that are key for patient welfare advancements in public health efforts against the STIs.

Rivers are a water source that has many roles in people's lives and is inhabited by many organisms. The quality of water can be seen from the number of organisms that live in that water. Organisms that can be used as biological indicators are macrozoobenthos. Macrozoobenthos are organisms whose movement characteristics tend to be limited and where they live permanently. The way to find indications of pollution in a river is to calculate the diversity of macrozoobenthos populations in the riverbed. The purpose of this study was to determine the diversity of macrozoobenthos in the Sumber Ngenep River, Karangploso District, Malang Regency. This research is quantitative research with an exploratory method. Sampling was carried out at 3 stations with 3 repetitions at each station. Identification using 3 literature and data analysis using the Shannon-Wiener Diversity Index (H') and Simpson Dominance Index (D). The research results obtained 10 macrozoobenthos genera. The diversity index value of station 1 (1.389), station 2 (1.638), station 3 (1.343). Dominance index value of station 1 (0.286), station 2 (0.262), station 3 (0.309).
PENERAPAN METODE PROFILE MATCHING PADA SISTEM PENDUKUNG KEPUTUSAN PEMILIHAN GURU TELADAN (STUDI KASUS: SMAIT AL USWAH TUBAN)

Guru adalah salah satu komponen penting yang harus dimiliki sekolah dalam melaksanakan proses pendidikan yang bermutu, seperti halnya dengan SMAIT Al Uswah Tuban. Untuk itu, sekolah selalu mendorong peningkatan kinerja dan professionalitas seorang guru dengan cara memantau kinerja guru dalam mengimplementasikan tugas-tugasnya, sehingga standar kompetensi yang diharapkan dapat tercapai. Beberapa masalah dalam menetukan penilaian guru teladan masih dilakukan dengan penilaian manual dan kurang akurat. Dengan demikian kepala sekolah sebagai evaluator atau pengambil keputusan sulit dalam menentukan guru teladan yang memiliki nilai terbaik. Dalam menentukan siapa guru teladan yang layak untuk diberikan apresiasi lebih dibutuhkan kriteria dan bobot dalam menilainya. Untuk itu digunakan suatu sistem pendukung keputusan dengan menggunakan metode Profile Matching, dengan metode tersebut dilakukan perhitungan GAP pada tiap kriteria, setelah GAP didapatkan kemudian dilakukan pembobotan pada masing-masing kriteria. Untuk langkah selanjutnya adalah melakukan perhitungan core factor, secondary factor, dan perhitungan nilai total dari masing-masing aspek kriteria. Kemudian untuk langkah terakhir adalah menghitung nilai akhir dengan memberi nilai presentase yang telah ditentukan sebelumnya oleh evaluator (Kepala Sekolah), sehingga akan dihasilkan sebuah perangkingan yang digunakan sebagai rekomendasi pendukung keputusan pemilihan guru teladan. Sistem Pendukung Keputusan (SPK) yang memadai dapat membantu sekolah dalam mengambil suatu keputusan yang relevan, sehingga dapat meningkatkan kinerja guru yang lainnya. Proses penentuan diharapkan akan lebih mudah dan cepat untuk ditindak lanjuti oleh pihak sekolah dengan proses evaluasi ataupun perencanaan lainnya yang berhubungan dengan kinerja guru.
