Analyzing the Musculoskeletal Flexibility in Young Females: The Impact of a Six-Week Surya Namaskar Intervention on Back Flexibility and Lumbar Flexion
Authors: Dubey Suchishrava , Choudhary Prashant Kumar
Published: July 2024

Objectives. This study aimed to investigate the effects of a structured six-week Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutation) regimen on back flexibility and lumbar flexion in female college students.
Materials and methods. Thirty female college students from the Gwalior District participated in the study and were randomly assigned to either an experimental group (Surya Namaskar regimen) or a control group. Baseline measurements of age, height, weight, and initial flexibility were recorded. The experimental group engaged in a six-week Surya Namaskar program, while the control group maintained their regular activities. Back flexibility and lumbar flexion were assessed using standardized tests before and after the intervention period.
Results. Statistical analysis revealed significant improvements in back flexibility and lumbar flexion in the experimental group following the six-week Surya Namaskar regimen. Specifically, the experimental group demonstrated a substantial increase in both back flexibility (mean change ± SD: 3.20 ± 0.95 cm) and lumbar flexion (mean change ± SD: 1.50 ± 0.75 cm), whereas the control group showed no significant changes in these parameters.
Conclusion. The findings underscore the effectiveness of Surya Namaskar in enhancing musculoskeletal flexibility among female college students. Integrating Surya Namaskar into educational programs could potentially benefit physical health by improving back flexibility and lumbar flexion, thus supporting overall musculoskeletal health and reducing the risk of injuries. Further research could examine the long-term effects and mechanisms underlying these improvements across diverse populations.
T. Parsons’ “Societal Community” in G. Sciortino’s Theoretical-empirical Interpretation
Authors: Trotsuk Irina
Published: July 2024

Talcott Parsons’ structural functionalism is an obligatory structural element of works on the history and theory of sociology. On the one hand, such works postulate and explain his contribution to the development of the macro-sociological theorizing within the “paradigm of social facts” founded by Émile Durkheim (concepts of social fact, social institution, mechanical and organic social solidarity, objective scientific method, etc.). On the other hand, any reconstructions of Parsons’ theory invariably contain critical arguments, the essence and scope of which vary from brief mentions of its excessive abstractness (teleology) and even utopianism to extensive quotes from numerous works by representatives of those research areas (as a rule, conflict theories) that are largely based on the disagreement with specific postulates or the general logic of Parsons’ reasoning about the structure of social system and the essence of social action. This format for presenting Parsons’ legacy has become generally accepted; therefore, the revival of interest in Parsons’ ideas, primarily in his concept of societal community in a rather practical-empirical way, in the works of Giuseppe Sciortino (with co-authors) in the last two decades has been somewhat unexpected. Albeit admitting the objective impossibility of mentioning all corresponding thematic lines, arguments and references in one article together with the high probability of subjective biases in their reconstruction and interpretation, the author makes an attempt to present Sciortino’s general argumentation: his rejection of the excessively simplified historical-critical perception of Parsons’ legacy, his attempts to systematize Parsons’ theoretical constructs that require only some clarification to be applied in the study of contemporary social realities, and his identification of those areas of the theoretical-empirical sociological analysis in which Parsons’ model of societal community has obvious heuristic (and even humanistic) potential, despite its generally recognized limitations.
Not Only Natural Resources: Extractivism as an Organizing Concept
Authors: Panfilov Nikita , Dokhov Ruslan
Published: July 2024

The intensification of human impact on the environment, progressive global inequality and the escalating opposition to the resource logic of the perception of nature led to the formation at the beginning of the 21st century of a discourse surrounding extractivism — a special form of social relations leading to the transformation of development into resource exploitation with the alienation of local actors (communities, people, companies and even states) from the profits generated and exported from the territory where this resource is located. The concept of extractivism has spread beyond its original topic (from natural resources to human talent resources, data, green regulation, and many others) and has been subject to abundant and varied reflection by scholars of different disciplines. The practices described in Latin American material were discovered in other parts of the world, including in hidden forms that mimic environmentally and socially responsible development. The expanded concept of extractivism claims to be another large concept that organizes many processes, reducing postmodern development to the production of resource peripheries that renews and cements existing social cleavages not only on former colonial outskirts, but also in long-developed cores of countries of developed capitalism. The imagined emptiness of new resource hinterlands has become a new mechanism for excluding growing vulnerable groups from the distribution of profits produced in global value chains.

Immunohistochemistry - uPAR in mouse lung tissue v1
Authors: Kim Sojin
Published: July 2024

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a method to detect specific target antigens (proteins) in tissue sections using antibodies. Immunocytochemistry (ICC) uses similar techniques to localize cellular proteins in cell preparations. Both IHC and ICC are powerful tools that provide insights into gene expression, spatialrelationships, and biomarker identification in various applications. These applications include basic research, assessment of normal and disease states within human and animal tissues, and assessment of plant pathology. The target antigen, bound by the detection antibody, is visualized using chromogenic or fluorescence detection. In chromogenic detection, the detection antibody is conjugated to an enzyme. The enzyme, usually horseradish peroxidase or alkaline phosphatase, catalyzes the conversion of its respective chromogen to a colored precipitate at the site of the antigen. This precipitate can be visualized by using brightfield microscopy. Certain chromogens can also be visualized by using electron, darkfield or fluorescence microscopy. In fluorescence detection, the detection antibody is conjugated to a fluorophore, which can be visualized using fluorescence microscopy.

Analysis of the need for a survival thematic BIPA dictionary for Handai Indonesia
Authors: Setiadi Agus , Sundusiah Suci , Halimah H.
Published: July 2024

The use of dictionaries in beginner-level BIPA learning is important, considering the limited vocabulary students master. Things like this apply to formal students in class and Handai Indonesia who are in Indonesia. Handai Indonesia refers to foreign citizens who can speak Indonesian. Apart from being required to adapt to learning in the classroom, Handai Indonesia, who immediately learned Indonesian in Indonesia, was also necessary to survive in his new living environment. Therefore, there needs to be supported vocabulary materials packaged based on their needs. Supported by this vocabulary material, it can be made into a special thematic survival dictionary that is easy to use. This research analyzes Handai Indonesia's need for a survival thematic dictionary. The method used in this research is descriptive. The needs analysis results show that public transportation is the place or situation that Handai Indonesia most needs in terms of survivability in Indonesia. Many Handai Indonesians experience vocabulary problems when using public transportation services, so they need a transportation-themed survival dictionary, and the type of dictionary they need is a digital dictionary. Images contain explanations and examples of sentences, conversations, and audio. AbstrakPenggunaan kamus dalam pembelajaran BIPA level pemula merupakan hal yang penting mengingat terbatasnya kosakata yang dikuasai oleh pemelajar. Hal ini tidak hanya berlaku bagi pemelajar formal di kelas tetapi juga para Handai Indonesia yang berada di Indonesia. Handai Indonesia merujuk pada warga negara asing yang mampu berbahasa Indonesia. Selain dituntut untuk dapat beradaptasi dengan pembelajaran di kelas, Handai Indonesia yang langsung belajar bahasa Indonesia di Indonesia juga dituntut untuk dapat bertahan hidup di lingkungan tempat tinggalnya yang baru. Oleh karena itu, perlu adanya sokongan materi kosakata yang dikemas berdasarkan kebutuhan mereka. Sokongan materi kosakata tersebut dapat dibuat menjadi sebuah kamus khusus kesintasan yang bersifat tematik sehingga mudah digunakan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kebutuhan Handai Indonesia terhadap kamus tematik kesintasan. Metode yang digunakan di dalam penelitian ini adalah metode deskriptif. Hasil analisis kebutuhan menunjukkan bahwa transportasi umum menjadi tempat atau situasi yang paling banyak dibutuhkan handai Indonesia dalam hal kesintasan di Indonesia. Para handai Indonesia banyak mengalami kendala kosakata pada saat menggunakan layanan transportasi umum sehingga membutuhkan kamus kesintasan bertema transportasi dan jenis kamus yang mereka butuhkan adalah jenis kamus digital, rancangan awal kamus dilakukan berdasarkan hasil analisis kebutuhan dengan pengembangan lema kesintasan tema transportasi berbantuan aplikasi digital Android dengan fitur gambar dilengkapi dengan penjelasan dan contoh kalimat, percakapan, dan suara.Kata Kunci: Analisis kebutuhan; Handai Indonesia; kesintasan; kamus tematik kesintasan

Published: July 2024

The mathematics learning outcomes of students in class X APHP 1 SMKN Pertanian Terpadu Provinsi Riau in the 2022/2023 academic year show that the percentage of classical achievement is only 35.9 percent. From the reflection of the learning process carried out by the teacher, the following conclusions: (1) the learning process was still teacher-centered; (2) during the teaching and learning process, only a small number of students actively participated in the teaching and learning process; (3) there were still students who did not do their work and only copied their friends' work. This study aims to increase students' activity and learning outcomes by applying the Think Pair Share cooperative learning model. This type of research is Classroom Action Research with two cycles. The subjects of this study were 39 students of class X APHP 1 at the SMKN Pertanian Terpadu Provinsi Riau. The results showed that applying the TPS type of cooperative learning model can be active in learning outcomes, as seen by an increase from cycle I to cycle II. The number of students who achieved KKM in the first cycle was 79.5 percent, while in the second cycle, it was 89.7 percent. Therefore, the TPS-type cooperative learning model can be used as an alternative to learning mathematics to improve student learning outcomes. AbstrakHasil belajar Matematika peserta didik kelas X APHP 1 SMKN Pertanian Terpadu Provinsi Riau semester ganjil tahun ajaran 2022/2023 menunjukkan bahwa persentase ketercapaian secara klasikal hanya sebesar 35,9 persen. Dari hasil refleksi proses pembelajaran yang dilakukan guru diperoleh kesimpulan bahwa: (1) proses pembelajaran masih berpusat pada guru; (2) pada saat proses belajar mengajar berlangsung hanya sebagian kecil peserta didik yang melakukan aktif untuk berpartisipasi dalam proses belajar mengajar; (3) masih terdapat peserta didik yang tidak mengerjakan pekerjaannya dan hanya selalu meniru pekerjaan temannya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan aktivitas dan hasil belajar peserta didik melalui penerapan model pembelajaran kooperatif tipe Think Pair Share (TPS). Jenis penelitian ini adalah Penelitian Tindakan Kelas dengan dua siklus. Subyek penelitian ini adalah 39 peserta didik kelas X APHP 1 SMKN Pertanian Terpadu Provinsi Riau. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penerapan model pembelajaran kooperatif tipe TPS dapat aktivitas dan hasil belajar, terlihat dengan adanya peningkatan dari siklus I ke siklus II. Jumlah peserta didik yang mencapai KKM pada siklus pertama 79,5 persen, sedangkan pada siklus II 89,7 persen. Oleh karena itu, model pembelajaran kooperatif tipe TPS dapat dijadikan salah satu alternatif pembelajaran Matematika untuk meningkatkan hasil belajar peserta didik.Kata Kunci: hasil belajar; pembelajaran kooperatif; penelitian tindakan kelas; think pair share
