The literature review of the present study demonstrates that during physical exercise, the body produces heat through the working muscles, generating thermal stress. Through the analysis of articles mainly from the last five years, we concluded that to maintain stable body temperature, the body uses regulatory mechanisms dependent on environmental, task and personal parameters. In intense exercise and in hot environments, blood flow to the skin can increase significantly, and sweating is also increased. However, non-thermal reflexes during exercise cause the regulation of blood flow in the skin to be different from that at rest. The body adjusts the threshold for dilation of skin blood vessels to a higher core body temperature and modifies sensitivity to this temperature change. Regular training improves these adaptations, allowing athletes to dissipate heat more effectively. This review highlights the physiological mechanisms involved in thermal regulation during exercise, discusses the estimation of core temperature in humans, and presents new nutritional approaches to evaluate parameters to maintain stable core temperature.

The uterine cervix, also known as the cervix, is the lower and narrower part of the uterus, establishing the connection between the vaginal canal and the internal organs of the female reproductive system. This type of cancer is mostly associated with persistent infection by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and is the third most common type of cancer among women. The role of the nursing professional is crucial in the process of detecting and diagnosing cervical neoplasia. Nursing actions include advising the population on the importance of regular preventive examinations. The aim of this study is to analyze the importance of health education in the context of the cytopathological examination, exploring the relationship between health education and the performance of this examination. Methodologically, this is an integrative literature review, using the following databases: PUBMED, SCIELO and BVS, using the following descriptors: "cytopathological examination", and "pap smear", "health education", and "patient adherence". A total of 120 articles were found and 11 were selected for analysis based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. It was concluded that raising awareness about testing is essential and should be done with humanized care and proximity to the woman. Health education is a tool that should be used by the entire multi-professional team. Its benefits include the dissemination of quality information to more people, increased demand for health services, counseling, thus reducing the incidence of cervical cancer, early diagnosis and effective treatment of these patients.

Authors: de Carvalho Souza Joana , Sarmento Oliveira Barral Débora , Pena Piacenza Moraes Mariana , Túlio Andrade Silva Marco
Published: July 2024

Objective: To identify and understand the pathophysiology of dermatological clinical manifestations in patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. Literature review: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is highly common among women of reproductive age. Although its etiology is poorly understood, the diagnosis is made by associating the various clinical manifestations of the disease and using the Rotterdam criteria - at least two of which are hyperandrogenism, multiple ovarian cysts and irregularity of the menstrual cycle. The symptoms are divided into dermatological, systemic, gynecological and reproductive. Dermatological symptoms include hirsutism, acne vulgaris, acanthosis nigricans, seborrheic dermatitis, androgenetic alopecia and, in more severe cases, virilization. Patients with PCOS often have a reduced quality of life due to its complications, including difficulty getting pregnant, gestational complications and even infertility. For the best management of this syndrome, a multidisciplinary approach is needed, involving various areas of medicine in line with the patient's complaints, and a clinical control approach for circulating androgen levels.

Published: July 2024

The present study investigated the efficacy of Plantago majorL. (Plantaginaceae) extract against Streptococcus mutans, a bacterium associated with the development of biofilms and dental caries. The main objective was to determine the efficacy of this extract by means of the broth microdilution method, seeking to establish the Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentrations (MBC) of the extract. For this, bacterial suspensions were prepared and incubated with different concentrations of the extract in BHI medium. After 48 hours at 36°C, the turbidity of the samples was evaluated, followed by subculture to check for bacterial growth. The extract of Plantago majorand 1% chlorhexidine were tested, and the MIC of the extract against S. mutansat a concentration of 1.5 x 107 CFU/mL was determined at 25 mg/mL. The results indicate that the extract has significant antimicrobial activity against S. mutans, suggesting that it is a promising natural alternative for the prevention of dental caries. The comparison with chlorhexidine suggests that the extract may be a viable option, especially considering the growing demand for natural antimicrobial agents. In conclusion, this study confirms the efficacy of Plantago major extract against Streptococcus mutans, highlighting its potential as a natural antimicrobial agent. Further research is needed to further explore the mechanisms of action and efficacy of this extract in in vivo models, aiming at its development as a treatment for caries prevention

Antimicrobials have revolutionized health by reducing mortality from infectious diseases worldwide. However, the inappropriate use of antibiotics contributes to the antimicrobial resistance process occurring in a shorter time and on a larger scale. This process can correlate human and veterinary medicine. Animals and humans can be affected by several microorganisms, and the spread of resistant pathogens can occur between species. When antimicrobial resistance occurs within the veterinary sector, it becomes a unique health concern because human and animal antibiotics are the same, making human treatments difficult and expensive. The World Health Organization (WHO), through the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Antimicrobial Use Surveillance System (GLASS) Report, points out that antimicrobial resistanceto agents responsible for nosocomial sepsis such as Klebsiella pneumoniae is greater than 50%. Agents such as Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. show growth in resistance rates and about 15% between 2017 and 2022. Antimicrobial resistance is responsible for about 700 thousand deaths annually and there is concern about an increase in this value due to the Covid-19 pandemic, due to the higher consumption of antibiotics. In veterinary medicine, the occurrence of antimicrobial resistanceis closely related to access to antibiotics without a professional prescription in farms and pet stores. Growth promoters for farm animals were used as preventives, however in 2020 this practice was banned in the national territory. Currently, the use of antibiotics without a previous antibiogram, misinformation from owners and metaphylactic uses are warning points within veterinary medicine. It is concluded that the occurrence of antimicrobial resistance within veterinary medicine is closely related to One Health.

Authors: Trushaj Aleks , Xhelaj Blerina
Published: July 2024

The study of modern technologies in archaeology and the restoration of architectural objects is extremely important because of the possibility of using them to preserve cultural heritage, discover new artefacts and improve scientific research methods. The aim of this study was to analyse the possibilities of using modern technologies for the rehabilitation and visualization of cultural heritage. The methods used in the course of the study included photogrammetry, comparative method, and analysis. The results of the study showed the significant potential of modern photogrammetry technologies in the preservation and visualization of cultural heritage. In particular, the use of aerial photogrammetry using a drone and ground photogrammetry using a digital camera made it possible to create three-dimensional models of architectural objects with high accuracy and detail. For example, 267 images were collected and processed using a drone for the Marinid Madrasa, Al-Mariniya Madrasa, and the Roma settlement. This data allowed for the creation of detailed three-dimensional models that were used to generate orthophotomaps and a visual inspection of the site. In addition, the export of 2D data and models proved to be effective for further modelling and analysis. This allowed for the development of a three-dimensional digital model that can be visualized, modified, and adapted at any time, which has become a valuable tool for architectural research and documentation. The results of the study confirmed the practical effectiveness of photogrammetric methods in the preservation and documentation of historical heritage. The use of digital models and orthophotomaps can facilitate visual analysis of objects, further research and archiving of cultural property. This approach has the potential for educational and tourism initiatives, engaging a wide audience in the study and appreciation of historical heritage
The Inventorship Paradox within Generative AI
Authors: Buzu Irina
Published: July 2024

The advancement of AI, especially generative AI, has brought the inventor designation debate back to the forefront. Can an AI system be considered an inventor when it does not have legal personality? This paradox, highlighted by the DABUS case, requires the exploration of both practical and legal as-pects. Even though the EPO considers AI-generated inventions to be “computer-implemented inven-tions”, the key question that more and more people are asking is this: Can AI really invent something new independently, or is it just a tool for human inventors? Most countries, including those in the EU, maintain that only humans can be inventors and therefore patents cannot be granted to machines, regardless of their capabilities, thus supporting the European human-centred approach. To elucidate this complex issue, we aim to analyze cases like DABUS, taking into account the advances in AI and the position of experts. This will help identify challenges and potentially redefine the legal landscape for AI-generated inventions in the future.
Implications of Intellectual Property Rights in Educating Consumers of Goods and Services on the Local Market
Authors: Remeșovschi Natalia
Published: July 2024

Enforcement of intellectual property rights (IPRs) guarantees legality, safety and quality when pur-chasing and consuming goods and services, but can also be seen as a factor influencing consumer trust. The implications of IPRs for consumer education can be perceived due to their importance in ensuring the integrity, quality of goods and services, and also consumer safety. The article concludes that the protection offered by IPRs can be achieved through educational efforts focused on facilitating access to information, means and tools for public learning. Institutional initiatives are needed to balan-ce IPRs enforcement against public needs, as well as comprehensive educational campaigns to raise awareness of the significance of IPRs. Stakeholders must be aware of the role of IPRs as an educational tool and, as appropriate, work together to achieve results

The Mechanical Toy – the Tandem between Engineering and Art
Authors: Stamati Mihai
Published: July 2024

In industrial design we constantly operate with forms, functions, technologies and materials. The balance between these means is difficult to perceive and even more difficult to achieve, and for this reason many products lose their aesthetic, functional or material qualities. The present study refers to a branch of design where this balance is essential, because the formation and education of the child depends on it. Toys are not just a scaled-down repetition of objects from everyday life, but rather an essentialization of everything that surrounds us – synthesizing, stylizing and reducing these objects to concise forms. This process is a complex design exercise that tandems art and engineering making them generate together solutions that, beyond aesthetics and functionality, express the playful and educational character of the toy.

US prescribers’ attitudes and perceptions about biosimilars
Authors: Reilly Michael S , McKibbin Ralph D
Published: July 2024

Introduction: In the United States (US), a legal framework for approving biosimilars was established via the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act of 2009 (BPCI Act). At the time of writing (September 2022), 38 biosimilars have been approved in the US. Some biosimilars in the US can be designated as ‘interchangeable,’ which means they can be automatically substituted at the pharmacy level. In 2021, the Alliance for Safe Biologic Medicines (ASBM) surveyed prescribing physicians in the US for their views on the prescribing, substitution and interchangeability of biosimilars. Methodology: In September 2021, the ASBM, conducted a web-based quantitative survey with 401 participants practicing medicine in the US. Prescribers were asked for their views on substitution of, as well as their familiarity with, knowledge of, attitudes to, and beliefs in, biosimilars. Results: Most physicians are comfortable prescribing biosimilars and comfortable switching stable patients to biosimilar product. Over half of physicians are more likely to prescribe biosimilars with interchangeable status and a similar percentage are more comfortable with pharmacy-level substitution of these products. However, the majority want to keep the authority to prevent pharmacy-led substitution if they specify so. Regarding switching patients to a biosimilar for non-medical reasons, the majority were comfortable doing this themselves but fewer than half were comfortable with a third party initiating the switch. In addition, most physicians favoured a scenario where multiple products, including innovator and biosimilars are reimbursed, and biosimilars may be encouraged for new patients with no automatic substitution permitted. Conclusion: The survey reveals that overall, American physicians are confident prescribing biosimilars. It also sheds light on how they feel about the interchangeable designation, and biological drugs switching choices made by them, pharmacists and payers.
An Interoperable Analysis of Building Information Modeling for Structural Design Purposes
Authors: Khattra Satinder Kaur , Jain Ritesh
Published: July 2024

The main objective of the research was to explore the ways and methods for integration of information in the context of processes based on Building Information Modeling (BIM) technologies and to investigate the main issues underlying the inadequate interoperability between applications used for Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) projects with special emphasis on architectural and structural design. For identifying various interoperability issues, different parametric models were created in the chosen software. In the first part of the interoperability experiments of the research, simple self-tests were performed to verify support of software applications for IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) and interpret internal mapping mechanism of these software resulting from exporting of model in IFC format. The information exchange was analyzed using direct link through API and indirect link through open universal standard IFC as it severs the purpose of openBIM. After the comprehensive analysis of data sharing among most commonly used BIM authoring tools in architectural and structural domains, it was realized that interfaces for the exchange differed significantly between the software tools. The results demonstrate that interoperability issues commonly arise, such as the increasing file-size, inconsistent object types, geometric misrepresentation, different colours, loss of properties and relations. Interoperability issues such as data loss and misrepresentation do exist, when software tools import IFC models created by other software tools. The comparative study indicates that BIM workflow is not yet fully competent to fulfill the inter domain information exchange process because many drawbacks. The integration of all the project data from various disciplines enhances coordination, transparency, prevents loss of information, design conflicts, duplication of work resulting in better project management.
Optimizing Broiler Growth, Yield Performance, Meat Sensory, and Productivity through Novel Synergies of Dietary Sweet Potato Leaf Meal and Water-soluble Multi-herbal Extract
Authors: Jr. Gilmore M. Ramoso, , Ramoso Rhea F. , Cordova Siony M. , Rabadan Ever Joy G.
Published: July 2024

In broiler chicken production, there is a critical need for sustainable feed supplements that can simultaneously improve growth performance, enhance meat quality, and increase profitability. To optimize broiler performance, this research examines potential synergies by combining two promising supplements, sweet potato leaf meal (SPLM) and multi-herbal extracts (MHE). The underlying hypothesis posits that combining SPLM in the diet and MHE in drinking water will improve broiler performance more than using either supplement alone. The experimental design involved broiler feed supplemented with SPLM ranging from 10 to 30 g/kg and water with MHE ranging from 0 to 10 mL/L, following a 2 x 4 factorial arrangement over 7-35 days. Growth parameters were assessed, including feed intake, weight gain, feed conversion ratio (FCR), and final body weight. Carcass quality analyses quantified dressed weights, cutlet weights, and edible offal. Economic analysis was also conducted, focusing on return on investment (ROI). Results revealed that 10 mL/L MHE and 30 g/kg SPLM combination elicited the maximum weight gain, lowest FCR, and highest dressed weights. This observation confirmed a synergistic augmentation of growth and muscularity. Furthermore, the economic analysis demonstrated that 10mL/L MHE + 30g/Kg SPLM maximized the return on investment. The study highlights a unique interaction between the nutrients in SPLM and the phytochemicals in MHE. This potentially enhanced broiler productivity through complementary bioactive mechanisms, modulating digestion, immunity, and protein accretion. Further research is warranted to delve into the precise modes of action and validate the universal applicability of this synergistic approach across diverse production systems.

This research aims to measure and compare the transparency index at the provincial level of the National Board of Zakat Republic of Indonesia (BAZNAS). This research uses quantitative methods with a descriptive approach. The transparency index is measured using the Zakat Management Organization Transparency Index (ITRANS OPZ) model with a multi-stage weight index approach. Sample selection was based on purposive sampling, with four entities: BAZNAS South Kalimantan Province, BAZNAS Special Region of Yogyakarta, BAZNAS Bengkulu, and BAZNAS Southeast Sulawesi. The results of measuring the transparency index in four BAZNAS Provinces are sequentially as follows: BAZNAS Special Region of Yogyakarta (0.96), BAZNAS South Kalimantan, BAZNAS Southeast Sulawesi (0.89), and BAZNAS Bengkulu (0.81). The comparison results of four BAZNAS Provinces show that the highest index is BAZNAS South Kalimantan and BAZNAS Special Region of Yogyakarta (financial dimension; 0.40), BAZNAS South Kalimantan, BAZNAS Province Special Region of Yogyakarta, and BAZNAS Southeast Sulawesi (management dimension; 0.26), and BAZNAS Special Region of Yogyakarta (program dimension; 0.30). This research implies that BAZNAS, at the provincial level, needs to increase the transparency index to increase Muzaki's trust and collect zakat funds in each Province.

Peranan pendidikan jasmani sangat penting dalam peningkatan pendidikan sebagai proses pembangunan manusia sepanjang hayat, yakni kenyataan bahwa siswa dapat berpartisipasi langsung dalam berbagai pengalaman belajar melalui aktivitas fisik yang diterapkan secara sistematis. Pemberian pengalaman belajar bertujuan untuk membentuk dan membentuk pola hidup sehat dan aktif sepanjang hidup.Pendidikan jasmani memainkan peran penting dalam perkembangan motorik anak sekolah dasar. Melalui aktivitas fisik yang terstruktur dan terencana, olahraga membantu meningkatkan kemampuan motorik kasar dan halus anak. Perkembangan motorik ini sangat penting karena berkontribusi terhadap kemampuan mereka dalam melakukan aktivitas sehari-hari dan meningkatkan koordinasi, keseimbangan dan fleksibilitas. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh positif pendidikan jasmani terhadap perkembangan motorik anak sekolah dasar dan mengetahui metode dan strategi efektif yang dapat diterapkan dalam kurikulum pendidikan jasmani. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa siswa yang mengikuti aktivitas fisik secara teratur meningkatkan keterampilan motoriknya secara signifikan dibandingkan dengan siswa yang lebih sedikit melakukan aktivitas fisik. Oleh karena itu, dimasukkannya pendidikan jasmani secara efektif dalam kurikulum sekolah dasar sangat dianjurkan untuk mendukung perkembangan motorik dan kesehatan jasmani anak secara umum.

Physical Education is basically an integral part of the overall education system, Physical Education is an educational process that utilizes physical activity and is planned systematically aimed at improving individuals organically, neuromuscularly, perceptually, cognitively, socially and emotionally which focuses on developing aspects of physical fitness, skills movement, critical thinking skills, emotional stability, social skills, reasoning and moral action through physical activity. In the intensification of education as a process of human development that lasts a lifetime, the role of Physical Education is very important, namely providing opportunities for students to be directly involved in various learning experiences through systematic physical activities. The provision of learning experiences is directed at fostering, as well as forming a healthy and active lifestyle throughout life. There is no education that does not have pedagogical objectives, and there is no complete education without physical education, because motion as a physical activity is the basis for humans to know the world and themselves which naturally develops in line with the times and habituation of healthy lifestyles that lead to to stimulate balanced growth and development. The purpose of this study is to know and deepen knowledge about the importance of physical education, sports and health for elementary school-age children.

Abstract. In this study, we present a numerical method for solving singularly perturbed mixed parabolic-elliptic problems with time delay using a hybrid finite difference method on shishkin meshes. The study focuses on a numerical scheme capable of handling problems with boundary and interior layers. The domain is divided into two subdomains: one containing a delay parabolic reaction-diffusion problem, and the other containing a class of delay elliptic convection-diffusion-reaction equation. Through discretization with a finite difference method on Shishkin meshes, we established almost second-order global pointwise convergence in the space variable, which remains uniform with respect to 𝜀. Numerical experiments support theoretical results, demonstrating the proposed approach's effectiveness in solving singularly perturbed mixed parabolic-elliptic problems with time delay.

Manual filling of logbooks triggers low satisfaction among nurses. E-Logbook is introduced as a solution to ensure compliance in the digital era. This study aims to examine the influence of E-Logbook on nurse fulfillment and technology acceptance at Bandar Lampung Adventist Hospital. This quantitative research utilized a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design involving 80 implementing nurses. The study revealed the following results: Nurse compliance significantly increased after the implementation of the E-Logbook. There was no significant difference in compliance between nurses with higher and lower levels of technology acceptance. The use of E-Logbook significantly impacted its utilization, while age, gender, and length of service were not related to compliance. The conclusion drawn is that the E-Logbook is effective in improving nurse fulfillment in logbook entries. Future implementations of E-Logbook should consider factors beyond age, gender, and length of service to enhance effectiveness.
