Alternating links, rational balls, and cube tilings
Authors: Greene Joshua Evan , Owens Brendan
Published: January 2025

When does the double cover of the 3-sphere branched along an alternating link bound a rational homology ball? Heegaard Floer homology generates a necessary condition for it to bound: the link’s chessboard lattice must be cubiquitous, implying that its normalized determinant is less than or equal to one. We conjecture that the converse holds and prove it when the normalized determinant equals one. The proof involves flows on planar graphs and the Hajós–Minkowski theorem that a lattice tiling of Euclidean space by cubes contains a pair of cubes which touch along an entire facet. We extend our main results to the study of ribbon cobordism and ribbon concordance.
Migawki z biografii Jadwigi Prendowskiej (1832–1915). Codzienność w niecodzienności powstania styczniowego
Authors: Kostrzewska Ewelina Maria
Published: January 2025

The January Uprising, a well-researched topic in historiography already, is still marred by “blank spots” that need to be filled. One of such “blank spots” that is still insufficiently researched are women’s activities during this national uprising. Another issue worth attention is the everyday life in January 1863. The selection of sources for such research topics remains an open question. The article uses an ego-document, which is the diary of a woman highly involved in the uprising – Jadwiga Prendowska, a courier who worked closely with the dictator Marian Langiewicz. Her memories were analyzed in biographical terms of a woman living in the 19th century, who actively participated in the national uprising, going far beyond the stereotype of the “good Samaritan” caring for the wounded insurgents. A woman whose new role was de facto traditionally carried outby men. An ambitious woman and a patriot through and through, who often felt discouraged or tired while fulfilling her courier duties. A daughter, a wife and a mother, but also a Pole who dreamt of an independent homeland. This multiplicity of roles and a number of various responsibilities were incorporated into her everyday life during the unusual times of the January Uprising.

Authors: Ngcobo Silindile , Magadla-Mateyise Afika Fikiswa
Published: January 2025

This study, conducted through a combination of interviews, surveys, and direct observations, examines the exploitation of sleep-in domestic workers from Lesotho who work in South African households. Based on data collected from 15 participants, the research brings to light the difficult living conditions these workers face, including a lack of privacy and inadequate working environments. The study identifies several key issues, such as the absence of written contracts, leaving workers susceptible to exploitation, unpaid overtime, and widespread non-compliance with minimum wage laws. The research shows that domestic workers encounter major obstacles in getting necessary healthcare and support services, which worsens their already unstable situation. The study also emphasizes the lack of chances for training and skills improvement, which hampers the workers' ability to enhance their lives and find better job opportunities. Many of these domestic workers are the main providers for their families and single parents, making the importance of fair pay and good working conditions even more crucial. The study highlights the significance of fair pay and good working conditions, stressing the urgent need for these rights and immediate policy interventions to be upheld. The research aims to bring attention to the systemic exploitation faced by this vulnerable group and advocate for essential reforms to protect their rights and improve their living and working conditions. Overall, the study emphasizes the pressing need for policy interventions and support mechanisms to empower domestic workers and enhance their quality of life in South Africa.
Educators’ Role in Mitigating Suicidal Propensities among Zimbabwe Rural Secondary Male Learners: An Exploration of Challenges and Interventions Mechanisms
Authors: Saruchera Munyaradzi , Chidarikire Munyaradzi
Published: January 2025

This qualitative study explores the role of educators in addressing and mitigating suicidal propensities among male rural secondary school learners in Zimbabwe. Then, it focuses on educators’ challenges and intervention mechanisms to provide insights into practical strategies for supporting mental health in this vulnerable population. Grounded in a phenomenological approach, the study utilizes a case study design to explore the lived experiences of 14 participants, including educators, parents, and health professionals. Data collection through focus group discussions enables a nuanced understanding of the complexities surrounding suicide prevention in rural educational settings. Research findings indicate that educators frequently struggle to identify suicidal tendencies among male learners due to cultural stigma surrounding mental health and lack of training in psychological assessment. Communication gaps with parents and health professionals further complicate these challenges. Conversely, successful intervention mechanisms identified in the study include peer support programs and mental health awareness campaigns, which create supportive environments and empower learners to seek help and engage in open discussions about mental health. Based on these findings, the study recommends that educational authorities implement comprehensive training programs for educators to equip them with the necessary skills to identify and address suicidal propensities among learners. Such training should encompass mental health education, communication strategies, and cultural sensitivity. Furthermore, establishing partnerships between schools and local health services can enhance the support system for vulnerable learners. Collaborative initiatives should be developed to facilitate regular mental health screenings and provide accessible resources for learners and their families.
Exploring Parental Expectations on Children Helping Parents out in Lower Middle-Income Families
Authors: Casilan Justine Jewell , Baclagan Tito
Published: January 2025

Helping parents out is the top priority of Filipino youth. Helping out is the act of children giving services or resources to make it easier for parents to support the family. The objective of this study is to determine what are the expectations of parents from lower middle-income families regarding the idea of children helping out their parents. This study also aims to know how parents identify a child who is capable of helping, what are the reasons why children will help their family out, and what kind of support they will provide. To attain the purpose of the study, exploratory research was conducted. Parents with two or more children belonging to the lower middle-income class residing in NCR, Region III, and Region IV-A served as this study’s participants. Using thematic analysis, the findings revealed that helping out is a non-obligatory practice. Children must first have a number of essential characteristics before being classified as a child capable of helping out. Parents also outlined various reasons and means by which children will help out. This study may offer a new framework for understanding how helping out parents is perceived by Filipinos in the current times.

Authors: Nishad Akshat , Vaidya Heer , Shah Keshavi , Patel Katha , Goel Meghna
Published: January 2025

The current systematic review is executed for the identification of factors influencing development of self-concept in infants. The growth of the infant is characterized by changes in the physiological and cognitive self, including prominent factors such as role of caregivers/parents, imitation and social learning, cognitive development, and sensory perceptions. Following the PICo Guidelines, the meta-synthesis was carried out to explore the relationship between the development of self-concept in infants under two years and the factors influencing its development. Databases including Google Scholar, Consensus, National Institute of Health, Scispace, PubMed, Elicit and ResearchGate were utilized in the search, administering the keywords relating to self-concepts and infants. Of the preliminary 150 articles, approximately fifty-four met the inclusion criteria and provided valuable insight into what aspects of the external and internal environment of an infant influence the ecological and interpersonal self-growth. There is a positive relationship between the parent’s love and warmth and the self-concept of infants. Moreover, family symphony and type of parenting play a significant role in how infants perceive themselves along with secure maternal attachment, whereas infants that have an insecure relationship with their mothers tend to have lower self-worth and poor psychosocial functioning. The cognitive development of the infant also plays a notable role in the development of self, due to the cognitive mapping of intuitive processes in infants. Perception of senses such as touch and vision also play a substantial role because of proprioception and optical flow impacting self-recognition.
Hacia una educación Superior de Calidad en el Perú: Evaluación y Acreditación
Authors: Tipacti Rodríguez Paula , Ramírez Valera Amalia
Published: January 2025

El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar las dimensiones que se utilizan para medir calidad y acreditación en las universidades peruanas bajo la normativa de la Superintendencia Nacional de Educación Superior Universitaria (Sunedu) y el Sistema Nacional de Evaluación, Acreditación y Certificación de la Calidad Educativa (Sineace), y evaluar su posición en función de estos criterios. Se utilizó un enfoque cuantitativo y un diseño documental no experimental, basado en un análisis de fuentes secundarias de acceso abierto. La muestra constó de 60 universidades licenciadas en Perú, seleccionadas por conveniencia, considerando las universidades incluidas en los rankings de la Sunedu y las acreditadas por el Sineace. Los resultados revelaron que las instituciones educativas buscan la calidad y acreditación, pero no siempre priorizan la calidad cuando no es obligatoria, prefiriendo promover su reputación en lugar de mejorar todos los factores de calidad. La evaluación integral para la consolidación de la calidad educativa y la acreditación voluntaria se destacó como aspecto relevante, dejando de centrarse solo la investigación, como se refleja actualmente en los rankings nacionales oficiales.

Vivir y convivir
Authors: Paredes Galiana Laura
Published: January 2025

Aprender a vivir y convivir con los demás supone la finalidad fundamental de la educación de nuestro país. Las habilidades sociales son la primera puerta para que las personas puedan desenvolverse en la sociedad correctamente. Esto pasa por aprender qué es lo que está bien y mal, así como la destreza de cómo ponerlo en práctica. El objetivo del siguiente artículo es justificar la importancia de la formación en habilidades sociales en el alumnado. Se ha desarrollado una revisión de literatura actualizada en materia de acoso escolar, convivencia, prevalencia en nuestro país y habilidades sociales. Es de vital importancia que se trabaje en temáticas como esta, ya que España, el 7,2% del alumnado que hay en las aulas, se ha sentido víctima de acoso escolar en algún momento. Así pues, trabajar las habilidades sociales con el alumnado es apostar por la mejora del autoconocimiento, autoestima y respeto a los demás, favoreciendo así la tolerancia y el civismo entre el alumnado; disminuyendo, por ende, las situaciones de exclusión y acoso escolar de las aulas.
Educación de la sexualidad en la adolescencia
Authors: Martínez-Otero Pérez Valentín
Published: January 2025

Este texto aborda la educación sexual desde una perspectiva pedagógica integral y humanista. La sexualidad está influenciada por la dimensión psíquica, ya que depende de la estructura de la personalidad, formada por cuerpo y mente/espíritu. La educación sexual cobra su verdadero sentido cuando se orienta al desarrollo completo de la persona. Desgajada de la educación integral del ser humano, esta formación puede desvirtuarse y perder su propósito. Desde la infancia, el educando debe recibir orientación sexual adecuada, acorde a sus características. Tras un análisis de la educación sexual desde una perspectiva internacional y en España, se destaca la controversia en torno a esta cuestión, reflejada en la diversidad de enfoques pedagógicos (moralista, funcionalista, afectivo, preventivo e integrador/comprensivo). El trabajo concluye con una propuesta orientadora de educación sexual para la adolescencia, centrada en la prevención de problemas y violencia, y en el fomento de conocimientos, valores y hábitos.

Authors: Петрова Т.В.
Published: January 2025

В статье рассматривается феномен доверия как один из ос­новных элементов системы правовых ценностей. Отмечается, что моральные и правовые ценности неразрывно связаны с социальной природой человека и общества. Подчеркивается важность разграничения понятия «доверие» в праве, социологии и философии. В праве доверие имеет трехступенчатую структуру, которая проявляется на индивидуальном, групповом и общесо­циальном уровнях, выполняет измерительную функцию, отражающую отно­шение граждан к правовой системе, а также деятельности органов государ­ственной власти и государству в целом.

The article considers the phenomenon of trust as one of the main elements of the system of legal values. It is noted that moral and legal values are inextricably linked by the social nature of man and society. The importance of distinguishing the concept of "trust" in law, sociology and philosophy is emphasized. In law, trust has a three-stage structure, which manifests itself at the individual, group and general social level, performs a measuring function reflecting citizens' attitude to the legal system, as well as activities of public authorities and the state as a whole.

Криминализация экоцида на меж­дународном и национальном уровнях
Authors: Кириловская Н.Н.
Published: January 2025

В статье рассматривается проблема криминализации экоцида в международном и национальном праве. Криминализация на международ­ном уровне экоцида как самостоятельного международного преступления имеет длительную историю, начиная со второй половины XX в. и продол­жается до сих пор. Отмечается, что здоровая окружающая среда является важнейшим условием существования человечества, для ее защиты важно криминализировать экоцид на международном уровне и установить инди­видуальную уголовную ответственность для должностных и частных лиц. Обращается внимание, что при наличии положительных результатов крими­нализации экоцида на национальном уровне в законодательстве некоторых государств отсутствуют такой состав преступления, общие позиции относи­тельно названия данного преступления, его состава, квалификации и мер наказания. Учитывая, что экоцид наносит серьезный вред окружающей среде и безопасности всего человечества, необходимы его криминализация и уни­фикация на международном и национальном уровнях.

The article deals with the problem of criminalization of ecocide in international and national law. Criminalization of ecocide at the international level as an independent international crime has a long history from the second half of the 20th century and up to date. It is noted that a healthy environment is the most important condition for the existence of mankind. For its protection, it is important to criminalize ecocide at the international level and establish individual criminal liability for officials and individuals. Attention is drawn to the fact that at the national level there are positive results of criminalization of ecocide, but legislation of some states does not contain such a corpus delicti, common positions regarding the name of this crime, its composition, qualifications and penalties. Given that ecocide causes serious harm to the environment and the safety of all mankind, its criminalization and unification at the international and national levels are necessary.
ADVANCING PLANETARY SUSTAINABILITY THROUGH LITHOLOGICAL MAPPING: ASTER REMOTE SENSING IN ANTARCTICA’S DRY VALLEYS
Authors: Riaz Khurram , BEIRANVAND POUR AMIN
Published: January 2025

The Dry Valleys of South Victoria Land in Antarctica, one of the most extreme deserts on Earth, offers an unparalleled analog for Martian landscapes and a vital record of Earth's geological history. Characterized by a cold, arid climate and minimal atmospheric moisture, the region's ancient rock formations, including early Paleozoic granitoid plutons, Devonian to Triassic sedimentary rocks of the Beacon Supergroup, and Jurassic basalt flows, provide insights into Earth's evolution. The logistical challenges of traditional field-based geological surveys in this remote and fragile environment emphasize the need for sustainable exploration methods. This study leverages Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) remote sensing technology to achieve high-resolution lithological mapping while minimizing environmental impact. Image processing techniques such as Band Ratio (BR) analysis, Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and the Optimal Index Factor (OIF) were employed to enhance the spectral characterization of lithologies. These approaches facilitated the identification of key lithological units, including sandstone, granite, gneisses, and basaltic flows, and the production of an accurate lithological map. By integrating remote sensing with sustainable scientific practices, this research demonstrates the potential to advance planetary sustainability while uncovering critical geological insights in extreme environments.

Evaluating nutrient intake among patients in a hospital is crucial, as it can accelerate their recovery process. Estimating calorie intake can be achieved by monitoring the quantity of food consumed by patients both before and after their meals. This approach involves various methods, including the use of digital scales, the Comstock level, and digital imaging techniques. Nonetheless, these techniques have their own limitations, particularly the risk of subjective assessments. To reduce errors arising from human factors, an objective evaluation is proposed. This paper introduces a new technique for measuring volume using RGB-Depth images. The method incorporates image segmentation and edge detection in RGB images to correspond with the depth image. Subsequently, the segmented regions and boundaries from the depth images are converted into point clouds. The volume of interest is calculated by fitting the point cloud to an ellipsoid. The lowest Mean Average Percentage Error (MAPE) is 2.73. It indicates that the proposed method is sufficient to measure the food volume.

Seiring meningkatnya pembayaran digital di Indonesia menjadi pacuan industri keuangan khususnya perbankan untuk terus melakukan transformasi digital. BANK XYZ merupakan salah satu perbankan yang juga melakukan transformasi digital. Untuk meningkatkan layanan perbankan yang selalu tersedia dan sesuai dengan permintaan pasar, diperlukan pemenuhan permintaan layanan teknologi informasi (TI). Namun, terdapat masalah dalam proses ini, yaitu banyak permintaan yang tidak ditindaklanjuti dan ditutup meskipun sudah dikerjaka menyebabkan keterlambatan pemenuhan permintaan pengguna. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi proses pemenuhan permintaan layanan TI dan memberikan rekomendasi perbaikan untuk masa depan. Proses evaluasi pada penelitian ini menggunakan kerangka kerja COBIT 2019 untuk melakukan pengukuran kapabilitas proses area yang relevan dan ITIL V4 memberikan praktis yang baik untuk rekomendasi perbaikan proses. Setelah dilakukan pengumpulan data dan pengukuran kapabilitas pada sebelas proses, dengan hasil tiga proses berada di tingkat dua yaitu APO09, BAI08, dan BAI10. Terdapat lima proses di tingkat tiga yaitu BAI07, BAI08, DSS02, DSS03, dan DSS04. Untuk pencapaian tingkat empat terdapat dua proses yakni APO14 dan BAI06, serta satu proses yang telah mencapai tingkat yakni DSS01. Kemudian pada proses analisis kesenjangan, terdapat tiga proses yang sudah memenuhi sasaran dari manajemen yaitu APO14, BAI06, serta DSS01, dan delapan proses masih belum mencapai sasaran. Rekomendasi diberikan pada delapan proses yang masih belum mencapai sasaran yang diharapkan manajemen.

Anesthetic Drugs: A Comprehensive Overview for Emergency Medicine
Authors:   Ross University School of Medicine – Barbados, ZI Merhavy
Published: January 2025

The purpose of this document is to provide a unique white paper on the use of different anesthetic drugs and the key clinical pearls for ensuring patient
safety in humans. This paper is designed to be a convenient guide that can be placed in work rooms for residents and medical school trainees to improve
their learning and to provide reminders about drug-drug interactions. Finally, it is designed to be a potential living document - the first of its kind within
the field. Unlike other white papers, this could be added to and modified based on the current literature and amended as newer drugs are discovered and
made available. This document is intended to become a ‘go-to-guide’ for clinical anesthetic drug use on humans that houses an in depth, yet condensed
encyclopedia of the most pertinent, necessary information for emergency medicine health professionals.

Objective: This qualitative study aimed to identify and explain healthcare seeking behaviours among caregivers of young children and apply these findings
to develop a mobile phone-based messaging intervention to encourage sustained attendance at a community-based management of acute malnutrition
(CMAM) program in Gombe state, Nigeria.
Design: Researchers conducted focus group discussions (n=6) and key informant interviews (n=3) with 33 subjects. Transcripts were independently coded
and thematic analysis was conducted to gain an understanding of the facilitators, barriers, and motivators shaping caregivers’ decisions to attend health
services for malnourished children, as well as access to and use of mobile phones.
Participants: Focus groups and interviews were conducted with caregivers of children aged 6-59 months living within travelling distance of three CMAM
sites in Gombe state, Nigeria.
Results: Barriers to seeking health services included high costs; perceptions of poor quality of care, including poor treatment by health workers; and female
caregivers’ limited autonomy. Despite barriers, participants recommended seeking hospital care for a malnourished child. Participants described widespread
mobile phone use and recommended messages emphasising that CMAM services are free, conveying respect for caregivers, and reminding caregivers to
continue making an effort to attend the CMAM program even as their child began to appear healthier.
Conclusions: This study provides a framework for developing contextually salient behavioural nudges for child health and nutrition programs which, in
combination with other community outreach strategies, could help motivate and sustain care seeking behaviour.
