La restauración es un objetivo de conservación, pero en los sistemas forestales, el proceso es largo y lento, basado en el crecimiento de los árboles. Por otro lado, se está viviendo en el antropoceno y la predicción del cambio ambiental es rápida en comparación con los plazos de restauración de zonas degradadas. El objetivo de esta investigación fue describir los elementos teóricos y conceptuales para la restauración de paisajes degradados. Para ello, se empleó un método descriptivo-analítico con una sistematización de la información y bibliográfico. Además, se aplicó el ad libitum para generar mapas conceptuales de los aspectos anecdóticos y de experiencia de especialistas. Es fundamental conocer los principios de la dinámica de los socioecosistemas degradados para construir objetivos viables y eficaces para tener un paisaje con niveles altos de remediación y, posteriormente, lograr la restauración con la participación de la sociedad. El paisaje puede ser utilizado como un indicador para evaluar los socioecosistemas degradados por actividades antropocéntricas, como la industria minera y petrolera. Por último, se debe promover proyectos de restauración ecológica multi y transdisciplinarios que consideren al socioecosistema como un todo dentro de lo social-antropológico, lo ecológico-biológico y lo económico-administrativo para asegurar que la recuperación del socioecosistema.

Authors: Marques Beatriz da Costa , Gomes Beatriz de Sá
Published: October 2024

Leukemias can be described as blood dyscrasias resulting from the disordered multiplication of hematopoietic tissue cells. The manifestations of the disease occur systemically and have a major impact on the oral cavity, with repercussions in response to the disease itself and to elective treatment, whether surgical, chemo- or radiotherapy. The objective of this study is to discuss the oral alterations of greatest clinical value in pediatric patients, discussing the role of the dentist in the diagnosis and treatment of these manifestations. The study was carried out from the perspective of an integrative bibliographic review, following the previously established inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results emphasize the correlation between oral health and the integrity of all systems, demonstrating that the most prevalent alterations are oral mucositis, gingival enlargement followed by spontaneous bleeding and petechiae, opportunistic infections, cavities, xerostomia and hyposalivation. It is therefore concluded that there is a need for the dentist to evaluate and monitor the treatment process of pediatric patients with leukemia who are the target of antineoplastic therapy.

Published: October 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic has established itself as a health challenge at a global level, with the WHO defining that response measures should be implemented as quickly as possible so that there is no incidence of new cases of the disease. The governing authorities established mandatory restrictions on the operation of most places where there could be crowds of people, such as, for example, shopping malls, schools and universities. With regard to the university community, these restrictions had a significant impact on their lives, impacting them in several ways […]. Therefore, the objective of this research is to highlight, through studies, the increase in cases of anxiety and depression in university students during and after the pandemic. The present study is an integrative review of the literature, whose function is to delimit results from previous studies on the proposed subject. The research was carried out in the following databases: Virtual Health Library (VHL), Scielo Portal, Google Scholar and the PAHO/WHO website. With the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, universities restricted their operations due to social distancing, completely changing the student scenario. Several studies carried out during the pandemic highlighted the repercussions on the mental health of the academic community, revealing prevalent feelings of impotence, anguish, fear of losing family and friends, irritability and sadness, increasing susceptibility to anxiety, depression and other disorders. Therefore, an emerging focus on mental health in the post-pandemic period is crucial as risk factors continue to significantly impact diverse areas of society.

Published: October 2024

The Catholic Church teaches that all Christian believers who have received the sacrament of baptism are called to carry out their responsibilities to be priests, prophets and kings. Lay people who are given a special task by the Church in the field of preaching the faith are called Catechists. Catechists should have a certain spirituality or enthusiasm for life to support their existence and ministry duties, especially in carrying out the five tasks of the Church. The aim of this research is to determine the role of catechists in church life, especially in the field of preaching. The method used is qualitative with a descriptive approach. The results of the research show that some catechists in the Santa Maria Assumpta Parish, Kupang Archdiocese have not taken an active part in carrying out their roles. Therefore, several activities are needed that can raise awareness within themselves so that catechists can involve themselves fully and actively in every ecclesiastical activity, especially assisting categorical groups in the Parish area in the field of preaching or catechesis.
المبادئ القرآنية للعدالة الاجتماعية وتطبيقها على نماذج الحوكمة الحديث
Authors: القطري اماني عطيه السيد علي
Published: October 2024

تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى استكشاف القيم والمبادئ القرآنية المتعلقة بالعدالة الاجتماعية، وتحليل مدى إمكانية تطبيقها في سياقات الحوكمة الحديثة لتعزيز المساواة والرفاهية الاجتماعية. تُعَدّ العدالة الاجتماعية ركيزة أساسية في الإسلام، حيث تأمر التعاليم القرآنية بإقامة العدل بين الناس، وتحقيق التكافل الاجتماعي، وضمان توزيع عادل للثروات والفرص. يشمل البحث دراسة تفصيلية للمبادئ القرآنية مثل المساواة، والتكافل (من خلال الزكاة والصدقات)، والشورى (المشاركة في صنع القرار) وكيف يمكن لهذه القيم أن تعالج التحديات المرتبطة بالعدالة الاجتماعية التي تواجه العديد من نظم الحوكمة في الوقت الحالي. تعالج الدراسة مشكلة نقص العدالة الاجتماعية في العديد من الدول، بالرغم من وجود أنظمة حوكمة تدعي العمل على تحقيق العدالة والمساواة. وتوضح أن هناك فجوة كبيرة بين المبادئ النظرية والتطبيق العملي للحوكمة، مما يؤدي إلى زيادة التفاوتات الاقتصادية والاجتماعية. ومن هذا المنطلق، تستعرض الدراسة إمكانية تبني المبادئ القرآنية لتعزيز قيم العدالة الاجتماعية بشكل فعال في الأنظمة الحديثة. انطلقت الدراسة من فرضية مفادها أن المبادئ القرآنية، مثل الشورى والتكافل، يمكنها أن تلعب دورًا محوريًا في تعزيز الحكم الرشيد وتقليل الفوارق الاجتماعية إذا تم تكييفها لتتناسب مع احتياجات العصر. قدمت الدراسة تحليلاً نقدياً للنماذج الحالية للحوكمة مثل الديمقراطية والرأسمالية، وناقشت كيفية إدماج المبادئ القرآنية لتحقيق تأثير إيجابي في تعزيز العدالة الاجتماعية. كما تناولت التحديات التي قد تواجه تطبيق هذه القيم القرآنية، وطرحت طرقاً للتغلب على هذه التحديات، بحيث يمكن توظيفها ضمن الأطر السياسية والقانونية المعاصرة. تتضمن الدراسة أيضاً دراسات حالة من دول إسلامية وغير إسلامية لتوضيح كيفية تطبيق مبادئ العدالة الاجتماعية بنجاح. من الناحية النظرية، تسعى هذه الدراسة إلى إثراء النقاش حول دور الدين في صياغة سياسات الحوكمة والعدالة الاجتماعية، بينما من الناحية التطبيقية، تهدف إلى تقديم توصيات عملية لمتخذي القرار حول كيفية إدماج المبادئ القرآنية ضمن السياسات العامة لتعزيز المساواة وتقليل التفاوت الاقتصادي. الختام يشمل توصيات محددة حول كيفية الاستفادة من هذه المبادئ لتحقيق مجتمع عادل ومتوازن، بالإضافة إلى دعوة للباحثين لمواصلة استكشاف هذا الموضوع بهدف تطوير نماذج حوكمة مبتكرة ومستدامة

Published: October 2024

In recent days, seaweed extracts are being used as biostimulants in agriculture. Various studies define that it enhances the growth of horticultural crops, but there is still a dearth of information regarding their biostimulant effect on yield and net returns of tomatoes. Hence, this research aims to explore the efficacy of seaweed extract in conjunction with micronutrients to enhance tomato yield, ultimately maximizing the economic returns. A field experiment using a factorial randomized block design with three replications was carried out comprising two factors, factor A, i.e., 12 treatment combinations of Ascophyllum nodosum extract (0.2% and 0.4%), Zinc (0.2%), and Boron (0.2%) applied at 15, 30, and 45 days after transplanting as a foliar spray and factor B, i.e., two hybrid varieties of tomato viz., Tomato no. 575 (red) and Yellow Jubilee (yellow). As per the results obtained, the treatment T12 (Zn @ 0.2% + B @ 0.2% + ANSE @ 0.4%) significantly improved the plant average weight of fruit, number of fruits/plant, equitorial and polar diameter of fruit, yield/plant, average yield/ha and harvest duration for both the studied varieties V1 (Tomato no. 575) and V2 (Yellow Jubilee). Moreover, it positively increased the net returns of tomato crops by enhancing marketable yield to fetch better returns. All the studied yield traits showed a significant positive correlation with the economic traits. The findings indicate significant improvements in key yield parameters, including fruit size, weight, and overall plant health. Moreover, the economic assessment underscores the financial viability of adopting these enhanced agricultural practices.
Becker muscular dystrophy mice showed site-specific decay of type IIa fibers with capillary change in skeletal muscle

Published: October 2024

Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), an X-linked muscular dystrophy, is mostly caused by an in-frame deletion of
DMD
. BMD severity varies from asymptomatic to severe, associated with the genotype of
DMD
. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.We established BMD mice carrying three representative exon deletions: ex45–48 del., ex45–47 del., and ex45–49 del. (d45–48, d45–47 and d45–49), with high frequencies and different severities in the human BMD hotspot. All three BMD mice showed muscle weakness, muscle degeneration, and fibrosis, but these changes appeared at different times for each exon deletion, consistent with the severities obtained by the natural history study of BMD. BMD mice showed site-specific muscle changes, unlike
mdx
mice, which showed diffuse muscle changes, and we demonstrated selective type IIa fiber reduction in BMD mice. Furthermore, BMD mice showed sarcolemmal neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) reduction and morphological capillary changes around type IIa fibers.These results suggest that capillary changes caused by nNOS reduction may be associated with the mechanism of skeletal muscle degeneration and type IIa fiber reduction in BMD mice. BMD mice may be useful in elucidating the pathomechanisms and developing vascular targeted therapies for human BMD.

Published: October 2024

Background

Early compromised first-permanent-molar (FPM) extraction can adversely affect occlusion. However, the current literature does not provide sufficient support for definitive early extraction outcome. This cohort study aimed to evaluate the pattern of post-FPM extraction spontaneous space closure and its pre-extraction indicators.

Methods

Patients of 7–13 years, with compromised FPM at three-tertiary-centers between 2015 and 2019 were retrospectively screened. Pre-extraction indicators were evaluated (extraction location, direction of the second permanent molar (SPM) long-axis, and SPM Demirjian development stage). Spontaneous space closure pattern was evaluated clinically and radiographically using the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) grading system.

Results

In total, 112 FPMs (73-patients) were identified and five (4.5%) of the extraction sites showed favorable combined-ABO-scores. Distal direction of the SPM long-axis in the maxillary arch significantly decreased the relative risk (RR) of having a SPM rotation/alignment ABO score-1 (P = 0.002; RR = 0.64). For the mandibular arch, Demirjian stage D and E significantly decreased the RR of having ABO score-1 for spacing between the SPMs and second premolars (P = 0.029; RR:0.57, P = 0.004; RR:0.53, respectively) and vertical dimension (P = 0.02; RR = 0.53).

Conclusions

The direction of the SPM long-axis and its developmental stage are key indicators of the favorable outcome pattern of spontaneous space closure after FPM early extraction.
Association between plain ropivacaine dose and spinal hypotension for cesarean delivery: a retrospective study
Authors: Li Min , Xie Guohao , Chu Lihua , Fang Xiangming
Published: October 2024

Background

Data on the association between the plain ropivacaine dose and maternal hypotension during cesarean delivery are limited. Thus, this study aimed to explore this association.

Methods

This retrospective study included patients undergoing cesarean sections under spinal or combined spinal-epidural anesthesia with plain ropivacaine at The First Hospital of Fuyang, Hangzhou, China, between 2018 and 2022. Data were obtained from the anesthesia information management system. Liner trend tests were used to distinguish the linear relationship between spinal hypotension and the plain ropivacaine dose, and receiver operating characteristic curves were used to calculate the dose threshold. Logistic regression was used to adjust for confounders. Sensitivity analyses were performed to evaluate the stability of the results. The secondary outcome was vasopressor use (metaraminol and ephedrine).

Results

In total, 1,219 women were included. The incidence of hypotension linearly correlated with the plain ropivacaine dose (adjusted P-value for trend, P < 0.001). Thus, we used a dose threshold of 17.5 mg to compare the dose as a binary variable (≥17.5 mg vs. < 17.5 mg). Plain ropivacaine doses of ≥17.5 mg were associated with a higher incidence of spinal hypotension (adjusted odds ratio: 2.71; 95% confidence interval [1.85–3.95]; P < 0.001). The sensitivity analyses yielded similar results. The plain ropivacaine dose also correlated with metaraminol use but not ephedrine use.

Conclusions

The incidence of spinal-induced hypotension in women undergoing cesarean section linearly correlated with the plain ropivacaine dose. The dose threshold for hypotension risk was 17.5 mg.

Published: October 2024

India ranks among the world’s top cashew producers, with Kerala and Tamil Nadu serving as key contributors to the country's cashew production. Among the Plantation sector, specifically cashew cultivation plays a pivotal role in boosting farm economy in India. This particular study explores field constraints experienced by cashew growers in Kerala and Tamil Nadu, which significantly impacts cashew cultivation. The key objective is to compare field challenges experienced by cashew growers among major producers in southern regions of India. The methodology involves a purposive multi-stage sampling approach to select regions, with an equal proportion of 80 respondents from each state selected through simple random sampling. Totally, 160 cashew growers were investigated for data collection through pre-tested structured interview schedule. The data sets were analysed using SPSS software, with frequency and percentage analysis employed to rank the identified constraints. The significant findings were pest and disease infestations, labour scarcity, unstable market price, lack of technical know-how and inadequate processing facilities. Notably, 100 per cent of growers reported that, Cashew Stem and Root Borer (CSRB) infestation as a most critical issue in both states. This paper highlights, region-specific and timely technical interventions, commodity-specific assured markets, proper pricing system and infrastructure development. The study's interpretation highlights the need to address high-priority and specialized constraints through targeted policy reforms and technical support systems, aiming to enhance the productivity and sustainability of cashew farming in India. These findings also provide valuable insights that can be applied to other cashew-producing regions and contribute to shaping national agricultural policies.

The current study reports the results of a baseline survey conducted to establish current status of optimizing productivity of crop-livestock systems in Kenya. Results from the study showed that 74% and 18% of the household head and respondents were male and female respectively, indicating a male dominance of household headship. The household head (69%) and respondents (16%) reported to have completed classes for formal school. On average, farmers were walking 1.83 Km, 5.18 Km, 4.65 Km, and 12.79 Km to the nearest village market, town market, extension office and farmers’ training centers respectively. This shows that extension and communication services are still far apart from the farming communities, with a negative implication on technology adoption and household food and nutrition security. Majority of the farmers did not utilize organic nutrients for crop production (96%). Open heaping/piling, composting with other materials, use of solid and liquid manures was reported to be utilized on average 67 kg, 30 kg, 11 kg and 2 kg respectively. This implies a poor manure management, low adoption and utilization levels of organic manures, with subsequent impact on climate change, crop productivity and household food and nutrition security. The main constraint limiting the use of organic fertilizers were ranked as follows; ignorance of the technical aspects linked to the use of manure as an organic fertilizer (17.8%), low awareness of manure usefulness to improve soil fertility (16.4%), high affordability and timely accessibility of chemical fertilizers (16.3%). Results further show that majority of the respondent did not utilize Nitrogen fixing plants (66%), nutrient cycling (84%) and legume crops (75%). The main Nitrogen-fixing plants were faba bean (10%), Sesbania (9%), cowpea (5%), alfalfa (2%) and sunflower (1%) respectively. The survey recommends promotion of climate smart interventions and organic soil fertility management approaches, farmers capacity building and promotion of agribusiness.

Published: October 2024

Aims: Rice is an important crop cultivated worldwide, whose production is influenced by numerous factors like pest, disease, weather parameters. In India, diseases accounts for 35 per cent in yield reduction, with sheath blight being significant. This disease is notably prevalent in Kuttanad region of Kerala. This study involves a survey conducted in Kuttanad to assess the extent of the disease and in vitro management using biocontrol agents and fungicides.
Study Design:  Study was outlined in Completely Randomised Design (CRD) to evaluate the in vitro efficacy of bioagents.
Place and Duration of Study: Department of Plant Pathology, College of Agriculture, Vellayani and M.S. Swaminathan Rice Research Station, Moncompu, between 2022 and 2023
Methodology: Survey was conducted in forty locations of Kuttanad in which the disease incidence was recorded and samples were collected. The isolates obtained were tested for pathogenicity by artificial inoculation on rice variety, Uma. Cultural characteristics of isolates were studied. The virulent culture obtained was further advanced for the in vitro studies with biocontrol agents and fungicides. The inhibition of fungal growth was also recorded.
Results: Forty isolates of sheath blight pathogen (Rhizoctonia solani) were obtained. The virulent isolate among these was identified on the basis of number of days taken for symptom development by artificial inoculation and this was further advanced for the in vitro studies. Bacillus amyloliquefaciens was found to be more effective with an inhibition percentage of 68.64. Among the tested fungicides, Kresoxim methyl 40% + Hexaconazole 8% WG showed cent per cent growth inhibition of pathogen at 500 and 1000 ppm concentrations which was on par with Azoxystrobin 18.2% + Difenoconazole 11.4% SC at 1000 ppm.
Conclusion: From this study, it can be concluded that, that these biocontrol agents and fungicides are very effective in the management of the pathogen and hence can be used for further field-level studies in management of the disease.

This study was carried out in the Sudano-Sahelian zone of Cameroon. It aims to contribute to the restoration of degraded land in the localities of Maroua I; to set up a sustainable soil restoration technique based on Vetiveria zizanioide- Azadirachta indica-eggshell and Musa paradisiaca peel; to evaluate the restoration of this land through the crop set up and to assess the state of the art of the "VEACOMUTECH" technique on an area of 103.5 m2. The method envisaged in this research is based on the new modern technique "VEAZCOMUTECH): Technique of V. zizanioide, A. indica, Musa paradisiaca and eggshell" with a view to restoring the fertility of the land and diversifying the population's sources of income by using this technique. The study was carried out in the Maroua I municipality on experimental plots at the Technical School of Agriculture. A control plot and a main plot treated with VEAZCOMUTECH were selected. The most vigorous species were chosen to measure growth and yield parameters over a three-week period. The results of this study show that the application of "VEAZCOMUTECH" on the site increases plant growth. In the first week, leaf length ranged from six (06) to fifteen (15) centimetres on average in the control plot. In the main plot where "VEAZCOMUTECH" was applied, leaf length ranged from ten (10) to thirty-two (32) centimetres during the same week. By the third week, leaf length had increased from 15 to 20 centimetres, while in the main plot, leaf length had increased from 32 to 80 centimetres. There was also a clear difference in the number of leaves at week three, with 20 and 87 leaves for the control and main plots respectively. The largest number of flower buds (23 flower buds) was observed on the plant in the main plot, compared with 2 flower buds in the control plot. These results could serve as a reference for the strategy of restoration and fertilization of degraded land in the Far North Region in particular and in the Sudano-Sahelian zone in general.

Região e fronteira: um diálogo intercalado com a cultura indígena Nambiquara
Authors: Clébio Pinheiro Francisco
Published: October 2024

Este trabalho surge a partir do contexto de estudo referente à cultura indígena Nambiquara. Sendo assim, objetiva-se dialogar sobre os principais conceitos que delineiam as regiões e fronteiras dos grupos Halotesu, Sawentesu e Negarotê, procurando englobar na temática a perspectiva dos povos originários indígenas. A abordagem metodológica se fundamenta em pesquisa bibliográfica dos seguintes autores: Albuquerque Júnior (2008); Costa (2000 e 2008); Lévi-Strauss (1988) e Santos e Meneses (2009). Os resultados obtidos permitem observar que o sentido de região e fronteira para os povos originários é bastante complexa, pois o modo de vida e de pensamento destes grupos englobam o mundo mítico-religioso. Por fim, procuramos fazer uma análise epistemológica a partir da cultura desses povos originários tendo como base a diversidade de saberes e conhecimentos.
