Published: February 2025

The study was set out to explore whether mushroom growing create wealth among participating households in Mbarara Municipality. This study was guided by the following objectives: to explore whether the participating households generate income from the mushroom enterprise; to examine various investments created out of the income from the mushroom enterprise for diversified earning; and to investigate the saving capacity of the participating households for future investment and enterprise sustainability. A retrospective-prospective study design was used to investigate the aspects within the period that took place in the past so as to understand the present situation and use it to predict the future. The study population included group leaders and members. From this population the researcher sampled 50 respondents using purposive and simple random sampling techniques. The study used both questionnaire and interviews to gather field data; qualitative data was arranged according to themes and quantitative data was analyzed using Statistical package for social scientists (SPSS). From the study, it was found out that farmers generate income from mushroom growing; In addition, respondents mentioned that mushroom presents growers with high nutritional value as well as income. The study also revealed the distribution of income as positively skewed, implying that farmers ought to obtain skills and improve on the technology they use to produce more and earn much. The study concluded that mushroom growing can contribute to wealth creation in an urban setting context due to its low set-up cost, high price margin and quick returns. The study recommends that Higher Institutions of learning like Bishop Stuart University should develop outreach programmes to equip such enterprises with basic skills to enhance their efficiency and high returns leading to wealth creation and sustainable transformation.

Published: February 2025

Renal stone disease is a prevalent health concern today. Patients suffering from renal calculi often hesitate to undergo surgery unless absolutely necessary, seeking non-invasive medical management through Allopathic, Homeopathic, or Ayurvedic systems. Lithotripsy is a common surgical intervention for recurrent kidney stones. In Ayurveda, renal stones are described as Mutrashmari, categorized under Ashtamahagada, and are considered a Kaphapradhan Tridoshaja Vyadhi.
This case study presents a 42-year-old female patient experiencing left-sided abdominal pain radiating to her back, along with burning and obstructed micturition. Advised to undergo lithotripsy at a private hospital, she opted against the invasive procedure and sought Ayurvedic treatment instead. The
successful management and expulsion of her renal stone through Ayurvedic medicines underline their efficacy as a non-invasive alternative for treating renal calculi.

Municipal Solid Waste Management Policies, Practices, and Challenges in Uganda: A Systematic Review.
Authors: - Joshua Namanya
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACT
Environmental, social, and economic activities are among the areas that are impacted by municipal solid waste management, or MSWM. Massive trash production and uneven management have made the problem worse in Uganda. Therefore, the purpose of this systematic review is to examine the legal and policy frameworks, practices, and difficulties related to MSWM in Uganda. A website search was performed to locate studies from 1995 to 2021. The Scopus and Web of Science databases, as well as Google Scholar, were utilized to look for published and unpublished studies from 2005 to 2021. Only the English language was included in the search. The parameters of the produced study were used to extract the study. The AMSTAR 2 was used to evaluate the listed studies' risk of bias. Seventy two (72) studies were determined to be qualified out of the 1135 records that were identified. Several legal frameworks that improve MSWM implementation in Uganda, which is primarily concerned with garbage collection, transportation, and disposal, were found by this systematic review. The primary obstacles were a lack of capability, public awareness, policy enforcement, and stakeholder cooperation. In Uganda, MSWM issues have become more prevalent in recent times and are having an impact on the day-to-day lives. Thus, these results could contribute to the enhancement of MSWM in Uganda.

Sexual Violence is a form of criminal act that in the modern era is very common in Indonesian society. Based on data from the KOMNAS Perempuan RI, in 2021 there have been approximately 1,721 Reports cases of violence against women. This Sexual Violence does not only occur physically, but has evolved into Electronic-based Sexual Violence. This Electronic-Based Sexual Violence has been regulated based on Article 14 paragraph (1) TPKS Law. The resolution of Sexual Violence Criminal Acts cases has so far been carried out on a criminal basis, which does not pay attention to the interests of victims. Therefore, the Writing Team tries to use Restorative Justice (RJ) as one way or alternative to solve cases of Sexual Violence Crimes, especially for electronic-based sexual violence in order to pay more attention to the rights of victims.

This paper is written with the Dogmatic Normative Juridical research method which is realized through a conceptual approach and statute approach. The final result of this study is that RJ can still be applied both at the level of investigation and prosecution of electronic-based sexual violence crimes with notes: The article imposed on the perpetrator is Article 14 paragraph (1) of the TPKS Law where the threat of imprisonment is 4 years; there is no rejection from the Society ; there is peace between the perpetrator and the victim ; and the rights of victims are restored again by redress or other exercise of responsibility of the perpetrator. If one condition is not met, then RJ cannot be carried out and the criminal justice process continues in accordance with the Indonesian criminal procedure law.

The exhaustion of local remedies (ELR) is a principle viewed as an exception rather than a rule in international investment law. Hence, it tends to be forgotten, and Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) is preferable in resolving disputes concerning mining licenses. However, this has proven detrimental to Indonesia as a developing country. This research aims to analyze ELR implementation in international investment law and the urgency of implementing ELR for Indonesia as a developing country. This research uses normative and comparative juridical methods to find that ELR remains an important principle despite being generally waived and that there is an urgency for Indonesia as a developing country to implement ELR to (1) reassert sovereignty; (2) minimize financial loss; (3) improve domestic adjudication and strengthen rule of law. Implementing ELR can be done through BITs by referring to India and Argentina as models. An amendment to domestic law and regulation is also needed to ensure the enforceability of ELR in Indonesia.

Marriage is a sacred process with several legal requirements that must be obeyed when one of the conditions for the validity of a marriage is not fulfilled. Furthermore, if things contained in the prohibition of marriage, such as committing inbreeding or incest, then the marriage is considered invalid or can even be canceled by law. When a marriage is considered invalid or even annulled by law, it will have legal consequences for the position of children born from the marriage, including the position of children in inheritance. This research uses a normative legal approach method that uses doctrines and principles of law as a reference and uses primary and tertiary legal materials. From this research, it can be concluded that inbreeding or incest is considered invalid in Indonesia, so it results in the position that children born from incest relationships are illegitimate children and are also referred to as adulterous children or discordant children (civil code). In terms of inheritance, children of incest have no inheritance at all. Both Islamic and Civil Law state that children of incest only have relation to their biological mother and mother's family, while to their biological father, there are no relations at all because they have no obligation to inherit each other and only have a right to demand the necessary maintenance from their biological father asset’s
Gastronomic Identity: A Review of the Environment, Culture and Economy Effect on Culinary Tourism
Authors: Ondieki Eusabia Bosibori
Published: February 2025

Gastronomic identity encapsulates an individual's cultural background and food choices wherever they go to work or visit as tourists.  The study evaluated various factors that are considered to influence gastronomic identity. The dominant environmental elements include geography and climate, which impact available agricultural products and the adaptability of new products due to trends, fashion, or demand from increased travel. The cultural elements included religions, history, ethnic diversity, innovations, capabilities, traditions, beliefs, and values. The tourism industry is not only affected by the environment but also by cultural and culinary heritage and the cost of living. Tourism is a way to promote traditions and customs. Eating habits are a matter of culture, a product of codes of conduct and the structure of social relationships. This study aimed to establish how Kenya’s vast cultures satiate their gastronomic identities while appreciating other cultures’ ethnic foods with the current economic situation. The study used a desktop review of studies in gastronomic identity. Findings will be used to provide information on gastronomic tourism. Understanding these concepts can be valuable when relating food choices, defining culinary tourism strategies, and local restaurant concepts

Authors: Kassem Ola , Tremblay Annie , Ghaly Mark S.W. , Oula Marie-Laure
Published: February 2025

This pilot, proof-of-concept, study was designed to assess the effect of a blend of Lactobacillus helveticus Rosell®-52 and Bifidobacterium longum Rosell®-175 on parameters of skin quality. Capsules containing L. helveticus Rosell®-52 and B. longum Rosell®-175 were given to 35 healthy women (3 billion CFU/d for 56 days), and assessments of skin quality were performed at baseline, as well as on days 28 and 56. Importantly, the formulation significantly reduced the appearance of fine lines and improved skin firmness, elasticity, and hydration. In addition, study participants experienced improvements in sleep quality and felt less stressed (PSS-10 subjective stress questionnaire). Taken together, these results provide the rationale to conduct a larger, placebo-controlled trial and to assess the effects of the oral probiotic intake in healthy women with more visible signs of skin aging.

Published: February 2025

Aim: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), or COVID-19, infection resulting in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) requiring veno-venous or veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV or VA-ECMO) support is a life-threatening disease process that requires prolonged intubation and has a high risk of mortality.
Methods: In this retrospective, observational, single-center cohort study, we attempt to better understand the role of extubation in the course of treatment by dichotomizing groups into those extubated early while remaining on ECMO treatment (group A), compared to patients who remained intubated for the entirety of their ECMO treatment (group B).
Results: The data indicate that early extubation of patients with COVID-19-associated ARDS requiring ECMO support leads to improved survival rates for group A (93%) compared to prolonged intubation (group B) throughout the course of ECMO therapy (64%) (p = 0.13). Additionally, patients extubated earlier (19 days vs. 59 days; p = 0.012) required significantly fewer vasoactive drugs (norepinephrine dosing: 0.03 mcg/kg/min vs. 0.093 mcg/kg/min; p = 0.04), and were less likely to require a tracheostomy (0 vs. 4, p = 0.026).
Conclusions: Although the utility of ECMO in severe ARDS patients remains a contentious topic, early extubation seems to increase survival rates and overall patient outcomes in patients with COVID-19-associated ARDS requiring ECMO support.
Vācu valodas loma latviešu zinātnes valodas attīstībā (1918-1940)
Authors:   Liepājas Universitāte, Dubova Agnese
Published: February 2025

The aim of the article is to reflect the types of influence of German as a contact language on the Latvian language of science in the interwar period from 1918 to 1940. During this period, the Latvian language acquired the status of the official language. However, the language of special use, including the language of science, was still developing. This is evidenced by the variability in the vocabulary of special use, which often occurred under the influence of contact languages, mainly Russian and German. The article discusses the existing research on the influence of the German language on the Latvian language of science, as well as analyses the scientific and popular scientific articles of the humanities and social sciences published in Latvian from the “Gazette of the Ministry of Education” (Izglītības Ministrijas Mēnešraksts) (1920–1939), and natural and engineering science articles from the “Articles of the University of Latvia” (Latvijas Universitātes Raksti) (1921–1943). The study uses content analysis, as well as qualitative and quantitative analysis.
The influence of German as a contact language is manifested in the use of special Latvian vocabulary with the indicated equivalents in German. The articles and lectures in humanities and social sciences are translated from German into Latvian and published. In the field of natural and engineering sciences, the collection can even establish bilingualism, as abstracts in Latvian are attached to articles in German, and vice versa – articles in Latvian are published with summaries in German, as well as academic lectures are published in parallel in both German and Latvian. The literature used in scientific articles is based on secondary sources in German. In the humanitarian and social spheres, thematic review articles are written using sources in German. Consequently, it can be concluded that the German language was an important “lingua franca” for the Latvian language of science during the interwar period (1918–1940).
Further research should be related both to the study of the impact of Russian as a contact language on the Latvian language of science and the study of the factors of multilingualism in the Latvian science of this period.

Semantización de la imagen en el micropoema en prosa v¡§ƱΔﭑ árabe e hispanoamericano actual: Farīd ʽomārah y José Aburto como ejemplos
Authors: Muhammad Marwa
Published: February 2025

Procuran cumplir estas breves líneas dos objetivos. En primer lugar, ejemplificar las potencialidades de la poesía en prosa visual árabe e hispanoamericana actual de semantizar la imagen visual; es decir, darle una forma semántica, a través de la exposición de un caso de análisis comparado, desde el método hermenéutico, en el que se están cotejeando obras de dos creadores contemporáneos cuyos contextos son muy distintos pero caracterizados por nexos comunes que enriquecen las posibilidades de esta forma experimental, el egipcio Farīd ʽomārah y el peruano José Aburto.
En segundo lugar, elegir dos mundos literarios y artísticos ajenos para ser objeto de análisis será nuestra vía para “fomentar el entendimiento entre distintas culturas, la tolerancia, el respeto mutuo y los valores éticos de la ciudadanía mundial y la responsabilidad compartida” como concluyó la Asamblea General de las Naciones Unidas en el punto 36 de la Declaración Transformar nuestro mundo: La Agenda 2030 para el desarrollo sostenible (2015, p. 11), siendo los valores, las convicciones, la expresividad humana, las lenguas y las artes una parte integral de la cultura que “posee un importante poder en el cambio transformador necesario para alcanzar los ODS” (Martinell, García Haro y Vázquez, 2020, p.5).
¿Buenas o malas?: La maternidad a debate en la literatura del cambio de siglo
Authors: Borham-Puyal Miriam , Martín Martín Juan Manuel
Published: February 2025

El objetivo de esta sección monográfica es analizar la compleja, y a menudo contradictoria, representación de la figura materna o de la experiencia de la maternidad en diversos formatos. La diferenciación conceptual entre la maternidad (motherhood) y su práctica (mothering) ha permitido diferenciar entre un referente frecuentemente opresor y otro con un enorme potencial liberador que, además, permite establecer vínculos entre las propias mujeres. La experiencia de las madres es muy diversa y corresponde tanto a estereotipos como a visiones alternativas que divergen de estos. La maternidad a tiempo completo de la Edad Moderna otorga poder a la madre, pero al tiempo justifica la regulación de su actividad. Esto determina que se considere “malas” madres a aquellas que no se circunscriben a lo socialmente establecido. En el marco de este debate, la literatura puede convertirse en un instrumento de transformación social, en tanto en cuanto represente elementos novedosos, divergentes o rupturistas. Así se pone de manifiesto en las obras que analiza esta sección monográfica al que este artículo sirve de introducción y que han sido escritas por autoras de geografías y épocas diversas.

La investigación se llevó a cabo mediante un enfoque cualitativo complementado con un enfoque descriptivo para lo cual se utilizó un diseño de investigación colaborativo según el método propuesto por Silva et al (2018). La población que se tuvo en cuenta para la aplicación del proyecto fue de 50 personas, los criterios de selección utilizados dependían de la disponibilidad de tiempo de los posibles participantes a los que de manera aleatoria se escogieron en diferentes edades y sexos, correspondientes a 28 niños de 7 a 14 años y 12 jóvenes entre 14 y 25 años y 10 adultos entre 26 a los 70 años, para el caso de la población mayor a 14 años, se aplicó a 16 mujeres y 15 hombres. A través del método de observación participante siguiendo las indicaciones propuestas por (Sanjuán, 2019) se escogió a los mambeaderos como el momento de mayor trasmisión de saberes, es en este espacio donde la aplicación de métodos de enseñanza étnica indígena coinciden con el concepto de educación comunitaria y libre, propuesta por Paul Freire, es así como se le dio importancia a la transmisión oral e interacción entre los participantes para crear un protocolo de siembra efectivo. Como resultado de las encuestas evaluativas del proyecto se demostró que fue bien recibido el método de la investigación aplicado y la forma en que se respetó las tradiciones lo que generó confianza entre la comunidad y abrió las puertas a futuras investigaciones

El análisis permitió identificar estrategias clave como la planeación, el monitoreo y la evaluación, fundamentales para potenciar la metacognición en el aula. Los hallazgos destacan que las prácticas docentes, como el uso de preguntas reflexivas, el trabajo colaborativo y la resolución de problemas contextualizados, promueven el razonamiento lógico y la autonomía de los estudiantes. Sin embargo, se identificaron desafíos como la resistencia inicial de los estudiantes, la falta de tiempo y recursos, y la necesidad de capacitación docente en estrategias metacognitivas. El estudio concluye que fortalecer la metacognición en matemáticas requiere un enfoque integral que combine estrategias pedagógicas efectivas con un ambiente de aprendizaje reflexivo. Se plantean futuras líneas de investigación para explorar cómo la metacognición puede integrarse de manera transversal en otras áreas del currículo escolar.

El artículo, adscrito al proyecto Estrategias Pedagógicas para Fomentar la Conciencia Ambiental sobre la Contaminación Auditiva en la Institución Educativa Vasco Núñez de Balboa, Sede La Inmaculada – Buenaventura”, presenta una revisión sistemática de la literatura sobre contaminación acústica en el período 2020-2024, analizando 50 publicaciones de fuentes indexadas. La investigación, realizada en portales científicos como Google Académico y Research Gate, reveló que la contaminación auditiva en espacios educativos sigue siendo un tema poco explorado, con mayor producción científica en Europa, Asia y África, mientras Latinoamérica muestra una significativa brecha de estudios. El análisis, influenciado por el contexto de la pandemia de COVID-19, destaca que la contaminación acústica impacta negativamente la salud, identificando soluciones como ajustes en infraestructura escolar y estrategias pedagógicas ambientales.

El linfoma cutáneo epitelotrópico es una enfermedad neoplásica poco común y de presentación similar a la dermatitis atópica, razón por la cual el diagnóstico es complejo; tiene varias formas de presentación y la casuística es mayor en perros gerentes. Se describe el caso clínico de una hembra Shih tzu de 7 años, paciente que es de la ciudad de Ambato, con historial de problemas de piel recurrentes sin resolución a pesar de tratamientos recibidos. Los laboratorios del paciente no mostraron alteraciones evidentes, la histopatología confirmó el diagnóstico de Linfoma cutáneo epitelotrópico. El manejo terapéutico se instauró en base a la sintomatología presente, lamentablemente el tutor no acudió al servicio de oncología y no regresa a control.

La publicación denominada "Fomentando el Pensamiento Emprendedor: "Proyectos Escolares para el Futuro" analiza cómo la instauración de iniciativas educativas orientadas hacia el emprendimien-to puede fomentar competencias fundamentales en los alumnos para afrontar los desafíos del siglo XXI. En un contexto global donde la innovación y la habilidad para resolver problemas son fun-damentales, el pensamiento emprendedor emerge como una competencia esencial en el ámbito educativo contemporáneo. Este estudio se centra en la formulación y evaluación de estrategias pe-dagógicas fundamentadas en proyectos que fomenten la creatividad, la resiliencia y la habilidad para colaborar entre los alumnos de nivel secundario. La indagación adoptó una metodología mixta, incorporando análisis tanto cuantitativos como cualitativos. La población investigativa consistió en un conjunto de 200 alumnos de nivel secundario, divididos en un grupo experimental y otro con-trol. El grupo experimental se involucró en la ejecución de proyectos empresariales concebidos en colaboración con docentes y mentores externos, empleando instrumentos como simuladores de empresas y plataformas de administración de proyectos. En contraposición, el grupo de control adoptó una metodología pedagógica convencional. A lo largo de un semestre académico, los alum-nos pertenecientes al grupo experimental diseñaron, planificaron y llevaron a cabo proyectos em-prendedores vinculados a cuestiones locales, tales como la sostenibilidad ambiental y la economía circular. Los hallazgos revelaron un incremento notable en las competencias emprendedoras en el grupo experimental, con avances del 40% en habilidades tales como la toma de decisiones, la ad-ministración del tiempo y la creatividad, en contraste con un 15% en el grupo de control. Adicio-nalmente, las encuestas y entrevistas llevadas a cabo con estudiantes y docentes subrayaron la mo-tivación y el compromiso suscitados por los proyectos, además de su efecto positivo en la autocon-fianza de los alumnos. Pese a los resultados favorables, la investigación detectó retos significativos, tales como la insuficiente capacitación docente en metodologías de aprendizaje basado en proyec-tos y las restricciones en el acceso a recursos tecnológicos en determinadas instituciones educativas. Para concluir, las iniciativas pedagógicas centradas en el emprendimiento no solo capacitan a los alumnos para el ámbito laboral, sino que también promueven una mentalidad orientada hacia la innovación y la resolución de problemas. Se sugiere expandir su puesta en práctica y examinar su repercusión a largo plazo en una variedad de contextos educativos.

The Atlantic Forest has a rich biological diversity and elevated levels of endemism, in which bromeliads are frequent but endangered. Tissue culture techniques comprises efficient tools to promote mass propagation of elite individuals for commercial aims, or the conservation of natural populations threatened with extinction. The present study evaluated aspects of seed-based Dyckia distachya micropropagation. A high rate of in vitro regeneration (78.93 shoots per gram) was obtained in response to liquid MS culture medium supplemented with 2 mM of 6-Benzylaminopurine (BA) after 120 days in culture or supplemented with 2 μM of 1-Naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), 4 μM of BA, and 6 μM of Paclobutrazol (133.58 shoots per explant) after 142 days in culture. All shoots were grown until 1.5 cm long before acclimatization in ex-vitro conditions with 92.6% survival. D. distachya is responsive to applying tissue culture techniques for mass propagation and conservation purposes. Using seeds as initial explants allows the maintenance of the genetic diversity observed in the natural populations. Mass regeneration is a promising technique for efficiently conserving this endangered bromeliad.
