Authors: Lingga Kusuma wardani  , Heri Saputro  , Wiwik Widyowati
Published: February 2025

Background: Teenagers are often described as agents of change who certainly have their own challenges and needs. This means that people who have reached adulthood must be ready to face the social world. If a person feels unable to cope with the changes and challenges that arise, they may develop negative reactions or emotional crises within themselves. Quarter life crisis is what people experience in response to instability, distrust, fear of failure, isolation, constant change, multiple choices, and also fear of impotence.
Purpose: The aim of this research is to reveal the relationship between Loneliness (X1) and emotion regulation (X2) with the quarter life crisis (Y) in Adolescents in Gresik.
Methods: This research is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional approach. This is done to test a predetermined hypothesis. This research uses a cross-sectional study, which means that data on the independent and dependent variables are each collected and observed only once . There were 468 populations and researchers involved 215 students of the Faculty of Health, Muhammadiyah University of Gresik, the sample was obtained randomly.
Results: There is no relationship between loneliness and emotion regulation with quarter life crisis. And no p-value results were obtained in the statistical test of the correlation of Emotion Regulation with Quarter Life Crisis and a p-value of 0.5 (>0.05) was obtained, which means there is no relationship between loneliness and quarter life crisis.
Conclusion: There is no relationship between loneliness and emotion regulation with quarter-life crisis. The occurrence of quarter-life crisis can be due to external factors such as work, social pressure, or changes in lifestyle, not just individual psychological factors.

Published: February 2025

The level of exclusive breastfeeding in Indonesia has still not reached the expected target. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2019 the average rate of exclusive breastfeeding in the world was around 38%. This is far above the target of 50%. The causes of low coverage of exclusive breastfeeding are influenced by lack of awareness of the importance of breastfeeding, lack of maternal self-confidence, and low knowledge about the benefits of breastfeeding for mothers and babies. The research aims to describe and compare breastfeeding assessment instruments which include assessing mothers' attitudes, knowledge and beliefs in exclusive breastfeeding. The method used in this review is identification based on keywords, screening titles and abstracts, and selecting based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The total of 10 articles were reviewed. According to 10 articles, 7 instruments were obtained, such as NeoEAT-Breastfeeding and IIFAS, which are effective in assessing the attitudes, knowledge, and beliefs of breastfeeding mothers. Overall, the instruments mentioned above can be used by healthcare workers to assess a mother's ability to breastfeed, with the note that validation and adaptation of the instrument into the national language are required.

Blockchain technology has emerged as a transformative force in supply chain management, offering significant advantages such as enhanced transparency, traceability, trust, and immutability. These features address critical challenges in modern supply chains, including inefficiencies, fraud, and lack of trust among stakeholders. Despite its potential, the integration of blockchain technology into supply chains remains underexplored in both academic and industrial contexts. This systematic literature review aims to bridge this knowledge gap by examining the benefits and challenges of blockchain technology in supply chain applications. The findings highlight key advantages such as improved traceability, transparency, and cost efficiency, while also identifying challenges like high implementation costs, data privacy concerns, and technological immaturity. The review concludes that blockchain technology holds significant promise for revolutionizing supply chain management, but further research and practical applications are needed to fully realize its potential. This study provides a comprehensive foundation for future research and offers valuable insights for practitioners considering blockchain adoption in their supply chain operations.
Rewetting drained boreal peatland forests does not mitigate climate warming in the 21st century
Authors: Launiainen Samuli , Ahtikoski Anssi , Rinne Janne , Ojanen Paavo , Hökkä Hannu
Published: February 2025

Rewetting of drained peatland forests restores ecosystem functions and improves peatland ecological status. It is also considered to mitigate climate change, yet some studies challenge this view Recently, Laine et al. (2024, Restoration Ecology, 32(7), p.e14213) considered feasible restoration outcomes of boreal forestry drained peatlands and proposed that rewetting nutrient-rich peatland forests can yield immediate climate benefits. They, however, focused only on the change of soil greenhouse gas balance following rewetting. Here, we extend their analysis by including tree stand carbon sink-source dynamics, direct radiative forcing by albedo change, and broaden the system boundaries to include wood product carbon storage. We show that restoring nutrient-rich drained boreal peatland forests contributes to climate warming in short- and medium term (<200 yr), except in specific cases when tree stand carbon storage is preserved. Rewetting nutrient poor boreal peatland forests yield to persistent warming impact. Results show that ecological benefits of rewetting drained boreal forest peatlands have a climate cost, and rewetting is unlikely to mitigate climate change in the timescale commensurate with that of, e.g., EU climate goals.
Glacially enhanced silicate weathering revealed by Holocene lake records
Authors: Hou Yi , Baronas Jotis , Kemeny Preston , Bouchez Julien , Geirsdóttir Áslaug , Miller Gifford , Torres Mark
Published: February 2025

How glaciation affects CO2 drawdown by chemical weathering sets the strength of the weathering-climate feedback, which controls the exogenic carbon cycle and planetary habitability (Kump et al., 2000). However, the exact role of glaciers remains elusive as glaciation alters multiple factors controlling weathering, the net effect of which is ambiguous even in directionality. While illustrative, modern observations have limited ability to constrain time-dependent behavior, which is thought to be important to glacial weathering (Vance et al., 2009; Kemeny et al., 2021). To isolate and quantify the effect of glaciers over millennial timescales, we developed a novel multi-proxy system for constraining catchment-scale fluxes in the past. This approach utilizes the correlation between Ge/Si and Si isotope ratios in modern rivers, which sensitively tracks weathering processes, and the preservation of these signals in biogenic silica in lake sediments. We report changes in weathering fluxes in two catchments with different glacial histories during the past ten thousand years from two lacustrine records in Iceland. We find that the chemical weathering fluxes are an order of magnitude higher in the same catchment when glaciated compared to when ice free. The synchronous variations in weathering fluxes with the expansion and contraction of glaciers indicate a rapid effect of glaciation that may amplify climatic variations via a positive feedback.

Food systems face increasing, multi-dimensional pressures that demand fully integrated assessments of environmental, social, health, nutritional, and economic dimensions to inform their transformation. Food system models traditionally designed for market-driven optimisation and economic efficiency may not be well suited to address these emerging needs, limiting their ability to support decisions and participatory processes effectively. Here we evaluate the extent to which current models represent food system transformations and identify challenges and opportunities in relation to key aspects of transformative change, including the representation of socio-political dynamics and human-nature feedbacks, links between global and local scales, robustness under uncertainty, and flexibility to evolving stakeholder needs. Based on an evaluation of current food system models, we identify ways forward to enhance the potential usefulness of modelling tools. Key research priorities include rethinking how models are designed, emphasising modularity and a diversification of models, as well as rethinking how models are used, suggesting their more effective integration into social and decision-making processes. Enhancing the utility of food system models is expected to prioritise and guide the practical activities involved in transforming food systems.
Neonatal Brain Striatal Tissue Iron Deposition in Congenital Heart Disease: The Effect of Early Life and Surgery on Development
Authors: Cabral Laura Mildred , Wood John , Schmithorst Vanessa , Ceshin Rafeal
Published: February 2025

Infants with congenital heart disease are now frequently surviving into adulthood but experience poor neurodevelopmental outcomes, including reduced cognitive and executive functioning. There is a critical need to link brain development to modifiable disease characteristics so we can offer intervention when the brain is most plastic. Brain dysmaturation in CHD is frequently experienced and likely impacted by the iron deficiency CHD infants experience from their disordered blood flow. Iron deficiency is significant for cognitive and executive function because striatal iron stores are needed for dopamine synthesis. Here we assess, with MRI, how striatal iron in CHD is different than in controls and how iron is impacted or related to various clinical characteristics. We find CHD participants had less iron than controls, indicating iron deficiency impacts deposition. Single ventricle infants had even less than other CHD participants post operatively. Within the CHD group, increased iron, through iron recycling, can also be indicative of cell death from hypoxia or ischemia. We find additional evidence for this relationship, where increased iron was related to poor APGAR scores pre-surgery. Iron supplantation is a promising intervention to optimize cognitive and executive function in CHD.
The embodied roots of disgust: exploring the link between Disgust Sensitivity, Interoception and Political Ideology
Authors: Von Mohr Mariana , Tsakiris Manos
Published: February 2025

Previous research indicates that conservatives exhibit stronger disgust sensitivity than liberals, especially regarding moral disgust, but recent findings suggest that physiological responses alone do not account for differences in subjective disgust experiences. Given the role of interoception in better body-awareness and emotion regulation, we investigated whether the relationship between disgust and political ideology is moderated by interoceptive sensibility (i.e., one’s ability to be attuned to their physiology). Using survey data from 632 U.S. participants (321 Democrats, 311 Republicans), we found that high interoceptive sensibility eliminated differences in disgust sensitivity between Democrats and Republicans. In contrast, low interoceptive sensibility amplified these differences: high disgust sensitivity predicted Republican identification, while low disgust sensitivity predicted Democrat identification, especially for moral disgust.We propose that when people’s ability to detect physiological changes is low, they may rely more on cognitive predictions and learned expectations to interpret their experiences. This reliance on top-down processing can lead to heightened disgust sensitivity, particularly in conservatives, due to their stronger association between moral concerns and disgust sensitivity. This research highlights the importance of interoception in political psychology, offering a novel perspective on the psychophysiological underpinnings of political attitudes, paving the way for replicable and causal studies.
Reasoning and empathy are not competing but complementary features of altruism
Authors: Law Kyle Fiore , Syropoulos Stylianos , Amormino Paige , Marsh Abigail , Young Liane , O'Connor Brendan Bo
Published: February 2025

Humans can care about distant strangers, an adaptive advantage that enables our species to cooperate in increasingly large-scale groups. Theoretical frameworks accounting for an expansive moral circle and altruistic behavior are often framed as a dichotomy between competing pathways of emotion-driven empathy versus logic-driven reasoning. Here, in a pre-registered investigation comparing variations in empathy and reasoning capacities across different exceptionally altruistic populations –– effective altruists (EAs) who aim to maximize welfare gains with their charitable contributions (N = 119) and extraordinary altruists (XAs) who have donated organs to strangers (N = 65) –– alongside a third sample of demographically-similar general population controls (N = 176), we assess how both capacities contribute to altruistic behaviors that transcend conventional parochial boundaries. We find that, while EAs generally manifest heightened reasoning ability and XAs heightened empathic ability, both empathy and reasoning independently predict greater engagement in equitable and effective altruism on laboratory measures and behavioral tasks. Interaction effects suggest combining empathy and reasoning often yields the strongest willingness to prioritize welfare impartially and maximize impact. These results highlight complementary roles for empathy and reasoning in overcoming biases that constrain altruism, supporting a unified framework for expansive altruism and challenging the empathy-reasoning dichotomy in existing theory.

Behavior change in practice: Hands-on guides for research and intervention development
Authors: Peters Gjalt - Jorn Ygram , Marques Marta M
Published: February 2025

Many health psychologists are involved with behaviour change, be it through developing interventions, studying ways to change behaviour or explaining why peopleengage in risk and health behaviors. Therefore, much of our communication is concerned with the primary research related to behaviour change. This issue of the European Health Psychologist, however, addresses a side of our work we rarely discuss in the literature: the practical side of developing or studying behaviour change interventions. Specifically, this issue will address the basic steps required in order to identify which beliefs and determinants to change, and which behaviour change methods can achieve these changes; how to utilize theory in the development of behaviour change methods/techniques; how to publish behaviour change interventions and how to assess and promote fidelity of intervention implementation; how to apply N-of-1 methodology and analyses to examine intervention effectiveness; and how one can go about working towards consensus regarding a specific behaviour change method. Each of these contributions offers practical guidelines that can be useful to students, Ph.D. candidates or other early-career researchers, and practitioners.

Published: February 2025

Tourism has become a vital driver for economic growth and cultural exchange inTamil Nadu, particularly in rural areas where traditional customs and livelihoods coexist withincreasing visitor numbers(N. et al., 2024). This study employs qualitative methods, includingsemi-structured interviews, focus group discussions, and participant observations, to assess thesocio-cultural and economic effects of tourism on rural communities. Findings reveal that whiletourism generates economic benefits such as increased income and job creation, it also presentschallenges like seasonal fluctuations and over-reliance on the industry. Socio-culturally, tourismfosters cultural interaction and empowers marginalized groups, especially women, throughentrepreneurship. However, concerns arise regarding the erosion of traditional values andcustoms. Environmental impacts are evident, with increased pressure on natural resources andinfrastructure, although eco-tourism initiatives have spurred conservation efforts. The studyunderscores the need for community-focused and sustainable tourism frameworks that aligneconomic benefits with cultural preservation and environmental sustainability. Inclusive policiesthat engage local stakeholders in decision-making are essential for ensuring tourism developmentaligns with community priorities and long-term sustainability.

Capítulo sexto: duraciones de tensión diferente
Authors: Manzano Vargas Jorge
Published: February 2025

Manzano, Jorge. Capítulo sexto: duraciones de tensión diferente. En este capítulo el autor desmenuza el “empirismo” de Bergson. Las afirmaciones reiteradas del filósofo francés de que no se debe perder el hilo de la experiencia se prestaron a todo tipo de interpretaciones, como la de que se negaba a ir más allá de las “consideraciones empíricas” y que menospreciaba el acto intelectual. Manzano, ayudado por los más fieles críticos contemporáneos de Bergson, va exponiendo los elementos clave que permiten ubicar la concepción bergsoniana y distinguirla tanto del empirismo materialista como del panteísmo monista. Lo primero a tener en cuenta es la mirada comprensiva, el pensamiento que aúna inteligencia e intuición, la experiencia que es indivisible de la reflexión. En un segundo momento, el análisis se centra en las relaciones entre la intuición y la duración y se desarrolla la tesis de las diferentes duraciones —a diferentes tensiones— de lo existente (la del ser humano, la de la materia, la de la eternidad).

La regulación de la inteligencia artificial y la responsabilidad de los Estados en su utilización militar
Authors:   Universidad de Extremadura, Rodríguez Juan Manuel
Published: February 2025

El uso militar de la inteligencia artificial plantea numerosas cuestiones de orden jurídico y ético, destacando las referidas a la aplicación de normas internacionales. La complejidad de los sistemas autónomos de armas conlleva interrogantes sobre su adecuación al ordenamiento internacional, necesarios para determinar la responsabilidad por su desarrollo y empleo. Sin normas especiales que los regulen, el soporte normativo básico es el Derecho Internacional Humanitario y el Derecho Internacional de los Derechos Humanos, con problemas específicos que promueven una evolución normativa para regular estas máquinas. La responsabilidad por la vulneración de obligaciones internacionales constituye uno de los aspectos más complejos que rodean a los sistemas de inteligencia artificial. Los problemas se extienden principalmente a la atribución de la conducta, la necesidad de imponer el respeto de las normas a otros sujetos y actores, así como a la garantía de cumplimiento en el desarrollo o adquisición de estos sistemas.

Published: February 2025

The global terrorist threat remains persistent and pervasive as the world moves into 2025. Armed conflicts from Ukraine to Gaza and destabilisation by both State and non-State actors are redefining international stability. The influence of groups such as Islamic State, al-Qaeda and Iranian-backed militias underscores the enduring risks. Key challenges include geopolitical rivalries, radicalisation and increasingly sophisticated cyber and physical attacks. With the Middle East at the epicentre of escalating tensions and Africa emerging as a new hotspot, coordinated international efforts are essential to prevent and counter threats. States must strengthen cooperation in intelligence, security and strategic foresight to deal with a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous global landscape.

Authors: Contreras-Ferreyra Dante Uriel , Martínez-Rojas Alondra , Pastor-Gómez Nelio , Chávez-Negrete Carlos
Published: February 2025

Introduction: In many of the current geotechnical tests, there is a need to improve data acquisition protocols, in addition to optimizing test procedures. The present work proposes the evaluation of 3 convetional sensors in geotechnical tests.  Methodology: The devices used were an S3C DC-DC linear variable differential transformer, the HC-SR04 ultrasonic distance sensor, and the SKU:SEN0193 capacitive soil moisture sensor. The general methodology consisted of the development of the communication protocol, interface, and display of readings for each device. Subsequently, the calibration and precision level of each sensor was obtained. Results: The precision and reliability of the sensors were expressed according to the linear fit, obtaining R2 correlation values ​​for all equipment. Discussion: The implemented systems allowed the detection of significant changes or trends in the behavior of the materials, obtaining satisfactory performances in most of the sensors, except for the moisture sensor SKU:SEN0193, which registered low precision. Conclusions: The use of sensors offers an alternative to improve some of the typical geotechnical tests. However, it is important to mention that a particular calibration must be carried out for each sensor to be used.

OBJECTIVE

Conditional survival incorporates the effect of time passed since an event to current data in an easy-to-understand, relevant format. Data from the Hydrocephalus Clinical Research Network (HCRN) registry were analyzed with conditional survival to improve patient and family counseling after hydrocephalus treatment.

METHODS

Children with hydrocephalus who underwent first-time treatment by a single proximal catheter ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) or endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) with or without choroid plexus cauterization with at least 3 years of follow-up in the prospective HCRN registry (14 sites, April 24, 2008–December 31, 2020) were included. Those with nonperitoneal or multiple proximal catheters were excluded. The probability of failure-free survival at 3, 5, and 10 years was calculated as a function of time since surgery.

RESULTS

Overall, 5782 patients were included (1609 with ETV, 4173 with VPS placement). The median time to censoring was 5.3 years. The overall respective 3-, 5-, and 10-year failure-free survival rates were 59%, 58%, and 57%, respectively, for ETV and 62%, 58%, and 54%, respectively, for VPS. If VPS failure had not occurred by 1 year postoperatively, the 3-, 5-, and 10-year failure-free survival rates were 85%, 79%, and 66%, respectively. If ETV failure had not occurred by 1 year, the 3-, 5-, and 10-year failure-free survival rates were 93%, 91%, and 86%, respectively. Conditional survival also varied by age and etiology.

CONCLUSIONS

Patients who do not require revision surgery in the 1st year have an excellent chance of being revision free for an extended period. Conditional survival plots provided are intuitive and can be used in the counseling of North American patients with surgically treated hydrocephalus.
Intravenous tranexamic acid and reduction in blood loss and perioperative transfusion requirements in adult spinal deformity: a multicenter propensity-scored observational study

Published: February 2025

OBJECTIVE

Intraoperative antifibrinolytic therapy with tranexamic acid (TXA) is a focus of interest for blood loss reduction in multilevel adult spinal deformity (ASD) correction surgery. There is considerable heterogeneity in the reported findings regarding the safety and efficacy of this therapy. In the present study, the authors aimed to rigorously investigate the safety and efficacy of TXA in multilevel ASD correction surgery and to explore secondary perioperative outcomes.

METHODS

This retrospective cohort study used data from the authors’ institutional spine deformity database, including records of surgeries performed between January 1, 2013, and December 13, 2021, with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. Adult patients undergoing elective thoracolumbosacral posterior spinal fusion involving 6 or more vertebrae were included. The primary outcome was the safety and efficacy of TXA, with secondary outcomes including postoperative complications and overall outcomes. Propensity-scored stabilized inverse probability of treatment weighting was used to adjust for confounding factors. Subsequent weighted analysis of the treatment effect was performed using regression models for hypothesis testing, with 95% confidence intervals calculated based on weighted means, variances, and standard errors. The p values of primary outcomes and subgroup analyses were adjusted for multiplicity testing with the Benjamini-Hochberg correction at a false discovery rate of 0.05. The conduct and reporting of this study were supported by the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) guidelines.

RESULTS

The study included 598 patients, with 257 receiving TXA and 341 controls. Weighted analysis revealed that TXA administration was associated with significant reductions in estimated blood loss (p = 0.007), percentage of estimated blood volume lost (p = 0.035), intraoperative total red blood cell transfusion volume (p = 0.035), and postoperative packed red blood cells transfusion volume (p = 0.035). No significant differences were observed in postoperative thromboembolic events (p = 0.397).

CONCLUSIONS

TXA was significantly associated with reduced blood loss and transfusion requirements in multilevel ASD correction surgery without increasing the risk of thromboembolic complications.

Published: February 2025

OBJECTIVE

There are significant challenges in the surgical management of pharmacoresistant epilepsy. Laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) has emerged as a less invasive alternative to resection. However, seizure persistence or recurrence following LITT is not uncommon, and there is currently a lack of guidance and consensus on the best way to manage seizure recurrence after LITT for different epilepsy etiologies in children, or for the use of LITT when open resection has left residual epileptogenic tissue. The objective of this study was to assess the outcomes of secondary epilepsy surgery after failed initial LITT.

METHODS

The authors performed a retrospective chart review of patients who underwent secondary epilepsy surgery after failed LITT at Children’s National Hospital.

RESULTS

A total of 36 patients were treated with LITT, and 4 were excluded due to the palliative purpose of LITT. Thirteen of 32 patients (40.6.%) achieved Engel I, 1 patient (3.1%) achieved Engel II, and 18 patients (56.2%) had poor outcomes (Engel III–IV). Of these 32 patients, 9 (28.1%) underwent reoperation after their first laser ablation surgery due to a recurrence of epilepsy. Seven patients had a second laser ablation, and 2 patients underwent open resection. Of these 9 patients, 3 (33.3%) had Engel I outcomes, and 6 (66.7%) had poor seizure outcomes (Engel III–IV). When considering only patients who had repeat LITT for reoperation, 2 of 7 (28.6%) of these patients achieved seizure freedom (Engel I). Of the 32 patients, short-term complications were transient oculomotor (n = 1, 3.1%) or trochlear (n = 1, 3.1%) nerve deficit, which entirely resolved within 6 months, and superior quadrantanopia (n = 1, 3.1%) after initial LITT.

CONCLUSIONS

Although LITT has shown promising results in treating pharmacoresistant epilepsy, the recurrence of seizures necessitates further evaluation and consideration of reoperation, which may result in seizure freedom. Repeat LITT is a low-risk option for secondary surgery after seizure recurrence.

This research aims to evaluate sensory using a 9-point hedonic scale and different statistical approaches on cookies made from Rhizopora propagule flour. This research used flour made from Rhizopora propagule and wheat flour with varying compositions to make cookies (C1= Rhizophora flour 100% wheat flour 0%, C2 = Rhizophora flour 75% wheat flour 25%, C3 = Rhizophora flour 50% wheat flour 50%, C4 = Rhizophora flour 25% wheat flour 75%). Respondents gave evaluations using a 9-scale hedonic score for the treatments in 4 parameters, including appearance, aroma, taste, and texture. Evaluation scores were analysed using four statistical approaches: Kruskal-Wallis, Freidman, ANOVA-CRD, and ANOVA-RCBD. The results show that different treatments resulted in significantly different respondent evaluation scores. All respondents give evaluation scores higher than the threshold except for C1. This result means that the addition of wheat flour is still needed in Rhizophora cookie production. All treatments have the same evaluation score in appearance treatment, while C3 and C4 treatments have the highest evaluation scores in aroma, taste, and texture. It could be concluded that the potency of Rhizophora flour from its propagule as an ingredient in cookies is confirmed based on sensory evaluation using a 9-point hedonic scale and the ANOVA-RBCD statistical approach.

Masin is a Sumbawanese traditional cuisine which is a sauce, made from mashed rebon shrimp, mixed with chilies, salt, flavorings, sugar and tamarind which fermented for 2 to 7 days. This study used anchovy as the basic material because of its abundant resources in West Nusa Tenggara. This study can be an opportunity for the development of processed anchovy. This study aimed to determine the effect of concentration of sugar and tamarind on the physical and organoleptic characteristics of anchovy. This research was conducted in a completely randomized design (CRD) with three replications of 2 factors such as the concentration of sugar and tamarind (0%, 0.6%, and 1.4%). Masin fermentation was carried out spontaneously for 7 days. The results showed that visually the anchovy masin did not grow fungi until the 14th day, except for samples with a concentration of sugar and tamarind 0.6% and 1.4%. Based on the L and oHue values, the anchovy masin has a reddish yellow color (yellow red) to yellow (yellow). Based on the results of the organoleptic test, it was found that the sugar concentration had an effect on texture and aroma, but did not affect color. The concentration of tamarind affected the aroma, but not the color and texture of masin.

Food Additives (BTP) are materials that are not usually used as food, have no nutritional value, and are intentionally added to food. The addition of several types of BTP to food is known to improve the quality of food products. However, at this time the use of prohibited BTP is still quite high, such as formalin and borax. Based on this, a study was conducted to identify the presence of formalin and borax content in several food products in traditional markets in Mataram city. This research method is qualitative descriptive with a sample size of four consisting of two samples for the formalin test and two samples for the borax test. The formalin test used wet noodle and tuna fish samples, while the borax test used meatball and lontong samples. Analysis of formalin and borax content was carried out using formalin reagents and borax reagents. The results of the study showed that the wet noodle and tuna fish samples were positive for formalin, while the meatball and lontong samples were not detected to contain borax.

Bioslurry liquid fertilizer is one of the biogas wastes that has been utilized in improving soil fertility. Free-range maize has the potential to support increased production alongside hybrid maize. The study aimed to assess the role of bioslurri liquid fertilizer for the growth and yield of several genotypes of maize plants. The research was conducted on dry land in Nagari Batang Betung, Basa Ampek Balai Tapan District, Pesisir Selatan Regency from Juny to October 2023. The research used a factorial completely randomised design (CRD). The first factor was maize genotype consisting of; Sukmaraga and Bisma varieties, JK, and JM line. The second factor was bioslurri liquid fertiliser (ml/L water) with 3 levels namely: 0, 50, and 100. The observed variables were plant height, male flowering age, female flowering age, root length, root dry weight, top dry stover weight, cob length, cob diameter, cob dry weight, 100 seed weight, and dry kernel weight per ha. Data were statistically analyzed with F test and Duncan's further test at 5% real level. Data were analyzed using Statistix ver. 8. The study showed that there were no interaction of bioslurri liquid fertilizer on the growth and yield of several genotypes of corn plants, and bioslurri liquid fertiliser also had no significant effect on the growth and yield of maize. Strain JK produced better growth in height, cob length, 100-seed weight, and dry kernel weight per ha than strains JM, varieties Sukmaraga and Bisma. The dry kernel weight of JK strains reached 4.90 tonnes/ha. Line JK can be used as candidate for new maize high-yielding varieties of free-range maize.

На сьогоднішній день дисплазія кульшового суглоба є досить поширеною патологією, яка зустрічається у новонароджених. Дисплазія кульшового суглобу є вродженою патологією формування суглобу, що зумовлює подальший можливий підвивих або вивих голівки стегна, це вада розвитку, яка захоплює всі компоненти суглобу (зв’язки, капсули, головку стегнової кістки, вертлюг, тощо). Мета дослідження: теоретично обґрунтувати особливості застосування фізичної терапії дітей з наслідками дисплазії кульшового суглоба. Методи дослідження. В роботі були застосовані методи теоретичного рівня дослідження: аналіз, порівняння, індукція, дедукція, систематизація та узагальнення науково-методичної літератури. Результати роботи.  Застосування засобів фізичної терапії позитивно впливають на дітей першого року життя при дисплазії кульшового суглобу, проаналізовані дослідження показали, що у дітей спостерігається зміцнення м’язів нижніх кінцівок, збільшення рухливості та амплітуди активного руху у гомілково-стопних суглобах, покращення рівноваги. Дослідження підтвердили, що необхідний періодичний контроль із метою своєчасної діагностики неповної корекції і профілактики рецидиву. Терапевтичні вправи відіграють важливу роль в наданні нижнім кінцівкам лікувального положення, збільшення амплітуди руху в кульшовому суглобі, відновленні рухових функцій у дітей. Оптимізація фізичної терапії спрямована нормалізацію рухових функцій, оволодіння руховими навичками.  Висновки. Таким чином, дисплазія кульшового суглоба може призвести до серйозних порушень у розвитку та функціонуванні суглоба, а без належного лікування викликати хронічні болі та обмеження рухливості в подальшому житті. Рання діагностика та застосування ефективних методів фізичної терапії допомагають запобігти прогресуванню захворювання, знижують необхідність хірургічного втручання та сприяють нормалізації функцій суглоба.
