Published: December 2024

In the current scenario of field hockey, players are continuously looking for new ways to improve their performance on the field, particularly in terms of power moves. Throughout this exploration, the current study examined the specific effects of complex and contrast training on field hockey player's physiological and biochemical responses. A total of 45 male field hockey players (mean (SD); weight: 63.62 (4.54) kg, height: 1.67(0.06) cm, and age: 19.42(1.18) yrs.) were randomly assigned to three equal groups namely complex training group (COM), contrast training group (CNST) and control group (CON). All the selected physiological and biochemical outcome measures have been tested baseline (T1) and after 12- weeks of training intervention (T2) assessments. Since the CON group was practicing field hockey every day, they were regarded as an active CON group. The intervention in the given period significantly improved VC and VO2max, positively impacting respiratory function. However, no notable changes were observed in RHR, HDL, and LDL levels. Forthcoming research may emphasize the refining of intervention protocols to address these areas and further understand the underlying mechanisms for optimal cardiovascular health and performance enhancement for field hockey players.

Published: December 2024

In education, optimising academic achievement (AA) and promoting attention and concentration are essential elements. The main goal of this systematic review (SR) is to analyse and synthetise the scientific evidence to examine the impact that the different interventions with active breaks (AB) have on the AA, attention, and concentration of the students in educational contexts. To do this, the PRISMA protocol is followed (REG INPLASY: INPLASY202390082). The documents that comply with the inclusion criteria for this research are 29 scientific articles extracted from the databases Web of Science (WOS), SCOPUS and ERIC. The specific goals of this study are detailed through 13 research questions related to the characteristics of the works and their results, e.g. thematic and geographic diversity, variability in the research designs, inclusion of several educational levels and academic contents, as well as the presence of common intervention modalities and heterogeneous durations. The panoramic view suggested by the results presents AB as an interdisciplinary topic of international interest mainly focused on basic education, with measure instruments that are diverse and have variable duration, which might influence the comparability between studies. Even though some studies back up the positive effects of AB, the heterogeneity of approaches and results highlights the need of future research in order to unify criteria and allow a better understanding of the effects of AB and their applicability in several educational contexts.

Authors: Wu Jiale , Li Yuesen , Zhou Changjing , Xiong Xiuyuan , Qin Xiaoru , Cui Yixiong
Published: December 2024

This research aimed to explore the performance characteristics of substitutions and to evaluate the performance of substitutions based on the player evaluation system. Event data of 643 substitutions identified from the Chinese Super League teams in the 2019-2020 season were used. The team ratings, ball possession, and expected threat of four periods (5 minutes per period before and after the substitution) of each substitution were computed. Two-step cluster analysis was performed on the team ratings at different times, and the Scheirer–Ray–Hare test was used for the two-factor design based on the cluster and the substitutions across four periods. The cluster analysis revealed 5 clusters with a Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) value of 1,360.50. The interactions of team ratings between the periods and the clusters in different groups were detected (H = 531.96, p < .001,  = 0.47). The group comparisons suggested that the ratings of Cluster 3 showed a significant decline after substitutions, which was caused by the lower ball possession while showing greater aggressiveness in terms of expected threat. The study shows how player evaluation systems can be used to measure the effectiveness of substitutions in soccer games and provides insight for further analysis of decision-making situations.

El alcance de las pensiones alimenticias a favor de las personas con discapacidad
Authors: Coronel-Cabrera Patricia Jeanneth , Chiriboga -Zumárraga David Alejandro , Dávila -Álvarez Julia Herminia , García -Segarra Holger Geovanny
Published: December 2024

La investigación aborda el análisis del artículo 4.3 del Código Orgánico de la Niñez y Adolescencia (CONA) en Ecuador, que regula las pensiones alimenticias adicionales para personas que enfrentan condiciones físicas o mentales limitantes. El estudio resalta la ambigüedad del término “circunstancias físicas”, lo que permite interpretaciones dispares y, en consecuencia, genera inconsistencias en la aplicación judicial de las pensiones alimenticias adicionales. Estas diferencias interpretativas afectan la seguridad jurídica y pueden conducir a resoluciones contradictorias en casos similares, impactando tanto a los beneficiarios como a los alimentantes. Además, la investigación explora la inclusión de enfermedades catastróficas como una de las “circunstancias físicas” que justifican el derecho alimentario. Aunque muchos jueces aplican esta interpretación extensiva, la falta de una mención explícita en el CONA genera debates y resistencia. Se sugiere que una inclusión formal de las enfermedades catastróficas mejoraría la protección de los derechos de personas en situaciones vulnerables. Finalmente, se analiza la aplicación del principio de proporcionalidad en el cálculo de las pensiones. El estudio propone que la fijación de estas pensiones debería considerar tanto la capacidad económica del alimentante como las necesidades del beneficiario. Esta recomendación apunta a garantizar un balance justo y reducir los incumplimientos, promoviendo una aplicación más equitativa y coherente del derecho alimenticio en Ecuador.

Exercises and Cognition in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: An updated Short Communication
Authors: Choudhary Avi , Kaushik Himani
Published: December 2024

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is increasingly linked to cognitive decline, which is a significant public health concern. Evidence suggests that individuals with T2DM are at a higher risk of cognitive impairment, including mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia. This association may be due to several factors, such as hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and vascular dysfunction. Regular physical activity has emerged as a promising intervention for improving cognitive function in individuals with T2DM. Exercise can enhance insulin sensitivity, reduce inflammation, and promote neurogenesis. Additionally, it can improve cardiovascular health, which is crucial for brain health.

Authors: Manzano Vela Mónica Paulina , Manzano Vela Dennis Renato , Flores Mancheno Ana Carola , Parra Chávez Marco Vinicio
Published: December 2024

Introduction: Down Syndrome (DS) is a genetic disorder caused by trisomy of chromosome 21, resulting in intellectual disability and an increased risk of congenital malformations. Advances in genetic and molecular diagnostics have improved the accuracy and speed of DS diagnosis, including next-generation sequencing (NGS) and whole exome sequencing (WES).Methods: A systematic narrative review was applied to analyze the most recent genetic and molecular tools applied to DS diagnosis as well as the clinical conceptualization of the disease. The review included sources from the last five years, extracted from databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. After critical analysis, 40 articles were selected from an initial total of 72 primary sources.Results: NGS and WES technologies have shown diagnostic sensitivity greater than 99% for DS, with false-positive rates below 0.5%. In prenatal diagnosis, non-invasive prenatal diagnosis (NIPD) using cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) in maternal plasma has achieved detection rates above 98%, reducing the need for invasive methods such as amniocentesis. Postnatally, molecular techniques such as real-time PCR (qPCR) and comparative genomic hybridization arrays (CGH-array) have reduced diagnostic times to less than 72 hours.Conclusions: Genetic and molecular tools, especially NGS, WES, and NIPD, have revolutionized the diagnosis of DS, offering greater precision and speed while minimizing risks. Future research should focus on validating these methods for widespread use, especially in low-risk populations, and exploring the potential of WES to detect comorbidities associated with DS.

Published: December 2024

Introduction: Robotic systems can help to effectively perform complex tasks in neurosurgery that require high precision, but due to the difficulty of operative access and the peculiarities of the anatomy of the nervous system, their wide application is limited. Objective: evaluate the effectiveness, economic feasibility and prospects of using frame-based and frameless stereotaxis for brain biopsy. Methods: A total of 155 patients of the neurosurgery department underwent brain biopsy procedures. Depending on the biopsy methods 2 groups were distinguished: group 1 (frameless) 71 (45,8 %) patients and group 2 (frame-based) 84 (54,2 %) patients. Positive results of biopsy, postoperative complications and operative time were recorded and compared with data from studies on similar topics. Groups 1 and 2 didn’t differ in lesion localization, sex, age, length of the skin incision and diameter of the trepanation hole. Results: The diagnostic yield was 94,4 % in group 1 and 92,9 % in group 2 (p>0,05). The frequency of hemorrhage was 7,0 % versus 3,6 %, p=0,471, the frequency of edema was 2,7 % versus 1,2 %, p=0,593. The duration of the operation was shorter in group 1 (112 ± 13,6 min versus 137 ± 17,6 min, p<0,001). Conclusions: Both frameless and frame-based systems are effective, safe, and reliable tools that has excellent diagnostic yield, above 92 % low frequency of postoperative complications and high accuracy. The main benefits of frameless stereotactic biopsy is shorter operative time, comfort for patients, and less intraoperative fatigue for surgeon.

Empowerment of rural communities in Afghanistan has great potential to change the knowledge, attitudes and work practices of villagers. Empowerment is considered fundamental to achieving development, as progress without empowerment of marginalized communities is often considered impossible. The purpose of this study is to formulate a strategy for rural community empowerment in line with sustainable development in Afghanistan. This research utilizes qualitative content analysis of relevant sources, with data collection through document analysis. The research reviews existing studies and theories, and introduces the background of empowerment in the context of sustainable rural development. The results show that empowering rural communities can be done by utilizing local resources and increasing the capacity of individuals to innovate. Proposed strategies include improving access to education, skills training, as well as supporting local economic initiatives. Effective empowerment not only increases agricultural productivity, but also strengthens social ties and trust among community members. Empowerment is a multidimensional process that includes economic, social, cultural, psychological and environmental aspects. It is essential for achieving sustainable development in Afghanistan, where challenges such as poverty and social disparities are still widespread. Women's empowerment, in this context, is critical to the transformation of society as a whole. Empowerment of rural communities in Afghanistan is key to achieving sustainable development. With a focus on empowerment, Afghanistan can create a resilient rural population, which contributes to national stability and sustainable growth. Policy recommendations include developing inclusive empowerment strategies, improving access to education and resources, and actively involving communities in decision-making processes.

Authors: Rakhmawaty Popy , Fakrulloh Zudan Arief
Published: December 2024

This study examines the legal uncertainty faced by persons with disabilities as witnesses and victims within Indonesia's criminal justice system. Although there are regulations that acknowledge the rights of persons with disabilities, their implementation often encounters various obstacles, ranging from inadequate accommodations to limited understanding among law enforcement officials. This legal uncertainty adversely impacts access to justice for persons with disabilities, who often feel marginalized within the legal process. Therefore, this research also discusses efforts to fulfill the rights of persons with disabilities as witnesses and victims, including the importance of training for law enforcement personnel, providing appropriate accommodations, and conducting comprehensive personal assessments to meet their specific needs. This study is expected to provide recommendations for policymakers to enhance legal protection and ensure accessibility for persons with disabilities within the criminal justice system.
