Authors: Wei Ling Huang
Published: June 2024

Introduction: A chronic headache condition occurs when a person has fifteen or more headaches per month. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that patients with chronic headaches have an energy deficiency inside the five internal massive organs (Liver, Heart, Spleen, Lungs and Kidneys) according to the Five Elements theory of traditional Chinese medicine, and the procedure for this condition involves treating the cause of the chronic headache formation and not just treating the symptoms. Methods: A study was done through the examination of two case reports of patients with frequent daily episodes of headaches who had been seen by neurologists and had been using medication to reduce their pain without any improvement. These two patients were submitted to the measurement of their energy within their five internal massive organs using the radiesthesia procedure. Results: All organs were found to be at their lowest level of energy with a rating of one out of a scale of eight. The treatment of this condition where it was necessary to replenish and rebalance the internal energy consisted of using Chinese dietary counseling, auricular acupuncture with apex ear bloodletting, systemic acupuncture, crystal-based medication and, also highly diluted medication following the theory of Constitutional Homeopathy of the Five Elements Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine. All of these were important in the treatment of their headache condition without the use of painkillers. Both patients saw an improvement in their headache symptoms without the need for painkillers.The Conclusion of this study hopes to show that patients with headaches have energy deficiencies inside their five internal massive organs as pertaining to the Five Elements theory (Liver, Heart, Spleen, Lungs and Kidneys), and the treatment of this condition of rebalancing the internal energy using Chinese dietary counseling, auricular acupuncture with apex ear bloodletting, systemic acupuncture and replenishing the internal energy using highly diluted medications according to the theory of Constitutional Homeopathy of the Five Elements Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine as well as crystal-based medication can all reduce or even cure headache symptoms without the use of painkiller medication.
Parkinson's disease and Major depressive disorder: a bidirectional Mendelian randomization study
Authors: Zhang Yixuan
Published: June 2024

Background: A substantial gap in knowledge exists regarding the causal relationship between Parkinson’s disease and major depressive disorder.Objective: A bidirectional Mendelian randomization analysis was conducted to investigate the causal relationship between major depression and Parkinson's disease. Methods: Pooled data from the Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) was used to obtain information on major depressive disorder (MDD) and Parkinson's disease (PD). single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were used as instrumental variables. Two-sample bidirectional Mendelian randomization analysis was used to examine causal associations between major depressive disorder (MDD) and Parkinson's disease (PD). The primary method used for this Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was the inverse variance weighting (IVW) method. Sensitivity analyses, including Cochran's Q test, the MR Egger intercept, and the leave-one-out method, were also performed. Results: The results did not support a causal relationship in any direction between MDD and PD. When MDD was used as an exposure factor, IVW analysis indicated that MDD did not lead to a modified risk of developing PD (OR=1.02, 95%CI: 0.78-1.34, P=0.89>0.05). Likewise, when PD was used as an exposure factor, IVW showed that PD was not associated with an altered risk of developing major depressive disorder (OR=0.99, 95%CI: 0.97~1.01, P=0.27>0.05). Conclusion: This study’s ﬁndings do not provide evidence for a causal relationship between Parkinson's disease and major depressive disorder.
Multidisciplinary Perspectives on the Pathophysiology, Treatment, and Management of Epilepsy
Authors: Gupta Aaryan
Published: June 2024

Recurrent seizures are the hallmark of epilepsy, a complicated neurological illness with a multifaceted aetiology involving cellular, molecular, and genetic factors. Genetic research has made significant strides in identifying the genes and loci linked to epilepsy, which has improved our understanding of the hereditary basis of the condition. Neuronal hyperexcitability is caused by molecular imbalances in neurotransmitter balance and receptor function, whereas cellular dysfunctions, such as anomalies in ion channels, affect the origin of seizures. With the emphasis on individualised treatment, new antiseizure drugs have been made possible by pharmacological developments. For patients who are resistant to medications, neurosurgical procedures such as neurostimulation and corresponding surgery provide options. Neuroimaging methods are vital in the surgical planning process. Potential treatment targets are highlighted by the thalamus's role in the spread of seizures. Patient-centered treatment is crucial since self-management techniques are essential for raising patients' quality of life. This comprehensive overview of epilepsy underscores the necessity of a multidisciplinary approach in research and treatment to improve management and patient outcomes.
The Place of Mood Stabilizers in The Treatment of Anxiety Disorders
Authors: E.I Bon
Published: June 2024

Mood stabilizers are used to treat bipolar disorder, but some drugs, in particular valproate, have anti-anxiety activity. This property is determined by the effect of valproate on the GABAergic system. Gamma-aminobutyric acid is involved in neurotransmission through interneuronal synapses in areas of the brain that control mood, such as the striatum, globus pallidus, and cerebral cortex. One of the most widespread mediators that plays a central role in the pathophysiology of anxiety disorders is the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) system. This fact allows us to consider valproic acid as the drug of choice in the treatment of anxiety disorders.

Authors: MAZARAKI Anatolii , MELNYK Tetyana
Published: June 2024

In the conditions of a permanent world energy crisis and its strengthening against the background of full-scale aggression of russia in Ukraine, questions regarding risks to national energy security come to the fore in the world. At the same time, the world is undergoing the fourth energy transition, which requires the develop­ment of a new concept of energy security by countries that are both suppliers of energy resources and their consumers. The aim of the research is to develop the conceptual principles of energy security, taking into account modern challenges caused by simultaneously growing crises in energy, economy and geopolitics. The creation of such a basis makes it possible to identify a number of solutions for neutralizing new threats that arise, in particular, in the context of the "green" transition. The research was conducted using the methods of scientific abstraction and systematization, analysis and synthesis, generalization, comparison. Concep­tual features of energy security management in conditions of radically changed context, streng­the­ning of crisis phenomena and threats of various natures are presented. The hypothesis that energy security is a complex category that expresses the ability of the fuel and energy complex of the region to supply the domestic market with the necessary volume and range of energy resources at stable and acceptable prices, to quickly mitigate unexpected fluctua­tions in demand for fuel and energy resources and to ensure uninterrupted energy supply and energy carrier parameters in real time. Based on the analysis of scientific publications and practical models of energy security, theoretical provisions, methodological principles and ener­gy security management tools that meet modern requirements have been developed. In particu­lar, the key global trends of changes in the energy markets are defined, the types and forms of modern energy threats and risks are outlined. It outlines the impact of the "green" transition that many countries have undertaken and confirmed at the UN Climate Change Confe­rence (COP28), emphasizing further energy security, taking into account both the reduction of dependence on fossil fuels and the new challenges associated with renewable energy sources. The results of the research are of prac­tical interest during the development of ener­gy policy, plans and specific actions aimed at ensuring energy security in a turbulent global environment.

Authors: Schlag Ruben , Stegmann Karsten , Sailer Maximilian
Published: June 2024

The flipped classroom approach has increasingly been implemented in higher education and has shown promise for enhancing learning processes across many domains. Within this instructional method, learners use certain learning materials to prepare for in-class lessons focusing on deeper understanding and application of knowledge. Both feedback as well as peer interaction are known to be able to facilitate such higher-order processing. However, questions remain on to what extent they can enhance the effectiveness of flipped classrooms in higher education. To examine these questions, we employed a 2x2 quasi-experimental design in a flipped classroom course on empirical research methods in the social sciences (N = 105). We investigated the effects of type of feedback (knowledge of correct response vs. elaborated) during a quiz on declarative knowledge and peer interaction during an application-oriented exercise (individual learning vs. cooperative learning). Elaborated feedback exerted a significant, medium-sized effect on declarative and application-oriented knowledge. A mediation analysis showed that about half of the effect of type of feedback on application-oriented knowledge was mediated by declarative knowledge. Results implicate elaborated feedback as an effective tool to foster declarative knowledge acquisition in flipped classrooms. Subsequently, this process also positively influenced the formation of application-oriented knowledge during the in-class learning phases.

Yogurt is a fresh and healthful fermented milk drink. This drink is made by a pasteurization process to eliminate pathogen bacteria in milk. The process was followed by a fermentation process with the help of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus bacteria. The conventional pasteurization and fermentation process take a relatively long time, where the pasteurization process takes 15 minutes and the fermentation process takes 48 hours. In addition to the long process, the thermal pasteurization process can decrease the taste, color, and nutritional content of milk. The purpose of this research is to create a tool that can speed up the manufacture of yogurt without reducing the nutritional content of milk. ZYOFIELD is a tool that combines a Pulsed electric field (PEF) with an automatic fermentation system. PEF becomes a new method of milk pasteurization without the addition of heat, where the process temperature is 25o C so it may not reduce the important content in milk. This method utilizes an electric shock with a voltage of 20-80 kV to inactivate the pathogen bacteria within a short time of 5 minutes. ZYOFIELD is integrated with a controlled fermentation system where the fermentation temperature is maintained at 40-45° C, where at this temperature the fermentation process becomes optimum for 6 hours. The temperature on the fermentor is controlled by a fuzzy logic intelligent control system to regulate the temperature of the fermentation.

Agricultural productivity cannot be separated from the use of technology by farmers. For example, in Enrekang Regency, there are still farmers who have not maximized the use of technology because it is considered expensive. Technology can be engineered but does not change the work function as an appropriate technology that is easy and cheap. For example, for corn farmers, fertilization is still traditional and takes up much time and energy, making farmers tired. Therefore dissemination was carried out to accelerate technology adoption, one tool that is easy to make using simple and inexpensive materials is a fertilizer sowing tool that is used to fertilize crops such as corn, chili, tomatoes, mustard greens, or cabbage for farmers in Buntu Batu District, Kabupaten Enrekang. Activities carried out by counseling and training methods as well as demonstrations of the use of tools. This fertilizer-sowing tool is made of several sizes of pipes that work on the same principle as a drill and the fertilizer that comes out can be adjusted to the needs of the plants. Participants appreciated the results of the socialization activities in the form of counseling and training on assembling fertilizer sowing tools from PVC pipes and demonstrations. The people in Pasui Village and Lunjen Village responded well to the socialization of the sow fertilizer tool because the technology offered was very much needed and helped farming communities who complained of back pain after every fertilization.
