Aromatherapy is one of the non-pharmacological interventions that nurses pay attention to.** Aromatherapy is a healing method that uses highly concentrated essential oils with fragrant aromas extracted from plant essences. The primary components of the oils provide a distinct aroma or scent, which is obtained from a specific plant (Geddes, 2000). Aromatherapy is composed of various types of volatile plants extracted from sources such as flowers, leaves, wood, roots, bark, and other plant parts. In more detail, aromatherapy is a form of treatment using volatile plant aromas (Yoshiko and Purwoko, 2016). Aromatherapy can come in the form of liquid or aromatherapy candles. Naturally derived aromatherapy candles are preferable compared to synthetic air fresheners, which may actually harm the health of those who inhale them (Minah et al., 2017).Coffee-scented aromatherapy candles can be made by coffee farmers as an additional product, besides coffee as a beverage. Roasted coffee, once ground into powder, can be combined with wax to create coffee-scented candles. Attractive production and packaging can increase the selling value of coffee-scented aromatherapy candles, especially if they are used in patient interventions in hospitals.This community service activity in the field of entrepreneurship aims to develop coffee products into coffee-scented aromatherapy candles and train students to become entrepreneurs and creative product developers. The target audience for this activity is nursing students at the Bengkulu Polytechnic of Health and coffee farmers.

Authors: Van Hecke O , Adegoke Y , Allwood M , von Pressentin K , Namane M , Butler C , Mendelson M , Coetzee R
Published: December 2024

Background. More than 80% of the South African (SA) population receive their care in publicly funded primary care clinics. The majority come from socioeconomically disadvantaged communities, and bear the greatest burden from infectious diseases. However, there are very limited published data on and evaluation of antibiotic prescribing linked to clinical indication. This is a major gap.
Objectives. To assess the impact of a pharmacist-prescriber partnership to track antibiotic prescribing in publicly funded primary healthcare clinics in the Cape Town metropole, SA.
Methods. We conducted a prospective observational study across five clinics where there was a dispensing pharmacist team. At each clinic, a prescriber-pharmacist team gathered prospective antibiotic prescribing data for ‘acute cough’, linked to clinical indication, and provided individual prescribing feedback through each clinic’s WhatsApp messaging platform about their prescribing quality (antibiotic dose, duration, frequency).
Results. Eight out of every 10 patients (adults and children) were prescribed an antibiotic (n=457). In a third of patients, an antibiotic was prescribed for suspected ‘community-acquired pneumonia’. The WhatsApp prescribing feedback was used in half of all visits. The proportion of pharmacy-dispensed antibiotics concordant with local guidelines in terms of prescribing quality was 95% (95% confidence interval 0.93 - 0.98), n=239). Against AWaRe (access/watch/reserve) guidance, 97% of antibiotics prescribed belonged to the ‘access’ group.
Conclusion. Although prescribing concordance with guidelines was good, a significant proportion of patients were prescribed an antibiotic for ‘acute cough’. Our findings have filled a fundamental gap in the evidence base that will inform antibiotic stewardship innovations, guideline development and future interventions.

Diferenças entre homens e mulheres na saúde cognitiva e sexual durante o envelhecimento: revisão sistemática
Authors: Gund Bruna , Cavalheiro Hamdan Amer
Published: December 2024

A manutenção de uma vivência sexual satisfatória é sinalizada como fator contribuinte para a preservação cognitiva durante o envelhecimento saudável. Entretanto, não são devidamente reconhecidas a normatividade e a estigmatização do que se caracteriza como uma sexualidade indicadora de saúde na senescência - especialmente em grupos com comprometimentos cognitivos. O objetivo deste artigo é distinguir e discutir as associações efetuadas pela literatura entre saúde cognitiva e sexual de idosas e idosos. Foram efetuadas buscas nas bases de dados PubMed, Psycnet, Scopus e Web of Science. Dos 4.568 artigos localizados, 10 compõem a amostra final. Foram extraídas informações referentes aos autores, amostras, atividades sexuais examinadas, instrumentos e resultados. Além da invisibilidade de minorias sexuais e de gênero, verificaram-se complicações referentes aos parâmetros utilizados para a avaliação de atividades sexuais nesta faixa etária. Ainda que os resultados encontrados corroborem a associação protetiva entre sexualidade e cognição, é imprescindível que a consensualidade e a qualidade das interações eróticas de idosos(as) com prejuízos cognitivos adquiram proeminência em pesquisas quantitativas.

Authors: Suedekum da Silva Vinicius , Horn Soares Camilla , Luft Vivian , Guerini de Souza Carolina
Published: December 2024

Background: This study aimed to assess eating psychopathology and orthorexia nervosa (ON) in vegetarians (VEG) and non-vegetarians (NVEG). Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study with individuals from different locations throughout Brazil. The Eating Disorder Examination–Questionnaire Version (EDE-Q) and Düsseldorf Orthorexia Scale were used. Results: There were no differences in EDE-Q (median 1.06 vs. 1.11 points, p=0.76) between VEG (n=95) and NVEG (n=88), and the scores compatible with eating disorders were similar between groups (27.4% vs. 27.3%, p=1.00). DOS was higher in VEG than in NVEG (median 20 vs. 17.5, p=0.04). VEG presented a higher frequency of DOS ≥25 (indicative of increased risk of ON: 20% vs. 9,1%, p=0.04). VEG group presented 1.9 points (CI95% 0.3 – 3.5) higher DOS score than NVEG, even when adjusted for sex and body mass index (BMI) (p=0.02). The interaction between VEG and BMI was significant for the EDE-Q score prediction (p=0.01). The magnitude of the association between BMI and EDE-Q was higher in the VEG group. For each 1 kg/m² increase in BMI, there was a 0.22 (CI95%: 0.16 – 0.29) point increase in the EDE-Q score in the VEG group and a 0.11 (CI95% 0.06 – 0.17) point increase in the NVEG group (p=0.01), adjusted for sex. Conclusion: VEG seems to be at increased risk for ON, and the association between BMI and eating psychopathology was higher in magnitude in the VEG than in the NVEG.
Perspectivas teóricas sobre la reducción de la jornada laboral: ¿ha llegado la hora de trabajar menos?
Authors: Sanchis i Muñoz Joan
Published: December 2024

Este artículo examina varias perspectivas económicas y sociopolíticas sobre la reducción de la jornada laboral en el contexto actual. Se analizan seis enfoques principales: la elección renta-ocio de la economía neoclásica, el conflicto distributivo de la economía política marxista, la optimización de los procesos productivos, la centralidad del trabajo reproductivo de la economía feminista, las consideraciones ecológicas, y las teorías poslaborales. El artículo muestra como estas perspectivas, a menudo complementarias, pero a veces contradictorias, ofrecen una visión compleja y multifacética de la cuestión. Se concluye que la confluencia de factores como los cambios tecnológicos, las preocupaciones ambientales, y las nuevas concepciones del trabajo están impulsando un debate renovado sobre la reducción de la jornada laboral, planteando retos y oportunidades para la transformación de la organización del trabajo en la sociedad contemporánea.

Progression through the G1 phase of the cell cycle is the most highly regulated step in cellular division. We employed a chemogenetic approach to discover novel cellular networks that regulate cell cycle progression. This approach uncovered functional clusters of genes that altered sensitivity of cells to inhibitors of the G1/S transition. Mutation of components of the Polycomb Repressor Complex 2 rescued proliferation inhibition caused by the CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib, but not to inhibitors of S phase or mitosis. In addition to its core catalytic subunits, mutation of the PRC2.1 accessory protein MTF2, but not the PRC2.2 protein JARID2, rendered cells resistant to palbociclib treatment. We found that PRC2.1 (MTF2), but not PRC2.2 (JARID2), was critical for promoting H3K27me3 deposition at CpG islands genome-wide and in promoters. This included the CpG islands in the promoter of the CDK4/6 cyclins CCND1 and CCND2, and loss of MTF2 lead to upregulation of both CCND1 and CCND2. Our results demonstrate a role for PRC2.1, but not PRC2.2, in antagonizing G1 progression in a diversity of cell linages, including CML, breast cancer and immortalized cell lines.
The emergence and evolution of gene expression in genome regions replete with regulatory motifs
Authors: Fuqua Timothy , Sun Yiqiao , Wagner Andreas
Published: December 2024

Gene regulation is essential for life and controlled by regulatory DNA. Mutations can modify the activity of regulatory DNA, and also create new regulatory DNA, a process called regulatory emergence. Non-regulatory and regulatory DNA contain motifs to which transcription factors may bind. In prokaryotes, gene expression requires a stretch of DNA called a promoter, which contains two motifs called -10 and -35 boxes. However, these motifs may occur in both promoters and non-promoter DNA in multiple copies. They have been implicated in some studies to improve promoter activity, and in others to repress it. Here, we ask whether the presence of such motifs in different genetic sequences influences promoter evolution and emergence. To understand whether and how promoter motifs influence promoter emergence and evolution, we start from 50 “promoter islands”, DNA sequences enriched with -10 and -35 boxes. We mutagenize these starting “parent” sequences, and measure gene expression driven by 240’000 of the resulting mutants. We find that the probability that mutations create an active promoter varies more than 200-fold, and is not correlated with the number of promoter motifs. For parent sequences without promoter activity, mutations created over 1’500 new -10 and -35 boxes at unique positions in the library, but only ∼0.3% of these resulted in de-novo promoter activity. Only ∼13% of all -10 and -35 boxes contribute to de-novo promoter activity. For parent sequences with promoter activity, mutations create new -10 and -35 boxes in 11 specific positions that partially overlap with preexisting ones to modulate expression. We also find that -10 and -35 boxes do not repress promoter activity. Overall, our work demonstrates how promoter motifs influence promoter emergence and evolution. It has implications for predicting and understanding regulatory evolution, de-novo genes, and phenotypic evolution.
Motor competence of children in Singapore using Movement ABC-2 test
Authors: Tan Jernice S.Y. , Chia Michael
Published: December 2024

Introduction

The Movement Assessment Battery for Children, 2nd Edition (MABC-2) test is a valuable tool for identifying motor delays in children globally. However, there has been a lack of data for children in Singapore.

Methods

This study compared 175 children in Singapore (SG) aged 3–6 years to MABC-2 data based on the United Kingdom (UK) population, using statistical tests to analyze age, country, and gender effects on motor competence.

Results

The results showed a positive age effect across all tasks, with SG children excelling in balance but lagging in aiming and catching tasks compared to UK children. The interaction between age and country yielded mixed results, favoring different groups at various ages. Additionally, girls displayed better manual dexterity and static balance than boys.

Conclusion

Encouraging more physical activities, especially those involving object manipulation, is crucial for SG children. Establishing local norms for the MABC-2 in Singapore and considering country-specific factors in motor competence evaluations can enhance early intervention strategies. These findings emphasize the importance of tailored approaches to address motor skill development in SG children.
PhyIN: trimming alignments by phylogenetic incompatibilities among neighbouring sites
Authors: Maddison Wayne P.
Published: December 2024

In phylogenomics, regions of low alignment reliability and high noise are typically trimmed from multiple sequence alignments before they are used in phylogenetic inference. I introduce a new trimming tool, PhyIN, which deletes regions in which a large proportion of sites (characters) have conflicting phylogenetic signal. It does not require inference of a phylogenetic tree, as it finds neighbouring characters that cannot agree on any possible tree. In phylogenomic data of ultraconserved elements (UCE), PhyIN effectively finds the boundaries between chaotic (conflicted) and orderly regions of alignments with data for only a single locus. Its ability to work on individual loci allows it to preserve discord between gene trees and species trees.
Overview of Research Progress on Innovative Approaches to Steel-concrete Joint Interfaces for Enhanced Performance in Cable-stayed Bridges
Authors: Chen Kesheng
Published: December 2024

The steel cable-stayed bridge has the characteristics of light weight, high construction precision, easy assembly, good seismic performance and clear force of cable tower anchorage structure. The concrete tower or pile cap has the advantages of high rigidity, low cost and low maintenance cost. Steel-concrete hybrid bridge tower combines the advantages of steel bridge tower and concrete bridge tower, and has been adopted by more and more bridge structures. This paper mainly introduces the structural form of steel-concrete composite bridge tower, and supplements the application of steel-concrete composite structure in main beam. The force borne by each part of the component is also different. In the process of excessive bearing capacity, shear keys, shear studs and other components play an important role. Future research can use computers to simplify the design process.

Simple random sampling technique was used to lay a total of twenty sample plots; six sample plots for Gmelina arborea and fourteen sample plots for Tectona grandis. A total of 606 individual tree species were measured for total height and diameter at breast height (DBH). DBH, total height and specific wood density of each tree species were fitted into allometric equations to determine the green aboveground biomass of each tree species. Gmelina arborea, mean diameter at breast height, total height and aboveground biomass of 25.2 cm, 11.1m and 40.3kg respectively were obtained. Mean basal area of 18.6m2ha-1 was obtained with a mean volume of 40.2629m3ha-1. The mean stand level green biomass was determined to be 96.65777 tons/ha-1 while mean dry stand level dry biomass was 70.07686 tonha-1 and stand level means of carbon stock and carbon-dioxide emission were 35.03843 tonha-1and 128.5911 tonha-1 respectively. Meanwhile, for Tectona grandis, mean diameter at breast height, total height and aboveground biomass of 16.4 cm and 13.8 m and 35.8kg respectively were obtained. Mean basal area of 25.61m2ha-1 was obtained with a mean volume of 64.1082m3ha-1. The mean stand level green biomass was determined to be 108.4855 ton/ha-1 while mean dry stand level dry biomass was 78.6519 tonha-1 and stand level means of carbon stock and carbon-dioxide emission were 39.3259 tonha-1and 144.3264 tonha-1 respectively; each developed models were correspondingly validated Permanent sample plots should be established in the plantation to enhance monitoring and evaluation.

The Influence of the Presence or Absence of Subdivision Plate on the Horizontal Bearing Characteristics of Suction Pile Dam
Authors: Liu Shuaiyong
Published: December 2024

This study aims to analyze the influence of the subdivision plate on the horizontal bearing characteristics of a suction pile dam using the finite element analysis method, through the method of finite element analysis, under the condition of keeping the relevant parameters of suction pile dam consistent, the subdivision plate is added inside the bucket foundation to study the horizontal bearing capacity characteristics of four bucket foundation configurations: single, 4 buckets, 6 buckets, and 8 buckets. The results reveal that the bearing mode is similar between suction pile dams with and without partitions, but the addition of partitions significantly improves the horizontal bearing capacity. The effect of partitions on improving the horizontal bearing capacity becomes significant with the increase in their number. When the horizontal ultimate bearing capacity is reached, the bearing capacity can be increased by 60.8% at most. With the increase of the number of buckets in the bucket foundation, the earth pressure on the outer side of the passive zone and the inner side of the active zone of the bucket foundation gradually decreases, indicating that the subdivision plate plays a crucial role in distributing the load on the foundation, thereby improving the synergy between the bucket and the ground, improves the synergy degree of the bucket-soil inside the bucket foundation of the suction pile dam, and reduces the extrusion strength between the bucket-soil in the passive zone.

Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) is a medicinal herb with various bioactive compounds that may influence the nutritional intake of livestock. This study aims to investigate the effect of fenugreek seed supplementation on the feed and water intake of Konkan Kanyal goats. Eighteen Konkan Kanyal kids (3 months old) were divided into six treatment groups and fed fenugreek seeds (FS) viz., T0- (Control) Basal ration (Soybean straw 40% + Green maize 20% +concentrate mixture 40%), T1- Basal ration +0.75 % FS, T2- Basal ration +1.5 % FS, T3- Basal ration + 2.25 % FS, T4- Basal ration + 3 % FS and T5- Basal ration + 3.75 % FS. The average feed intake (g/d) was higher in T5 (1216.10) than T0 (1095.66), T1 (1119.60), T2 (1152.20), T3(1177.13), T4 (1203.16). The average water intake (ml/d) of kids was 904.33 in T0, 911.66 in T1, 913.66 in T2, 920.33 in T3, 925.66 in T4 and 930.33 in T5. Therefore, it is concluded that addition of 3.75 per cent fenugreek seed with basal ration had significant (P<0.05) incremental effect on the feed intake (1216.10 g/day) and, water intake (930.33 ml/day).

Natural farming, especially Zero Budget Natural Farming (ZBNF), has emerged as a sustainable alternative to conventional farming, offering significant environmental and socio-economic benefits. This study explores the relationship between farmer profiles and the socio-economic impact of adopting natural farming practices in the Nilgiris District, Tamil Nadu. Employing a descriptive research design, the study collected data from 120 farmers using a stratified random sampling technique. A well-structured questionnaire, semi-structured interviews, and field observations captured critical variables such as age, education, income, family type, and extent of land under natural farming.
The results reveal diverse relationships between farmer profiles and their knowledge, adoption levels, and the socio-economic impacts of natural farming. Younger farmers, those with higher education, and those engaging in frequent contact with agricultural extension services demonstrated higher knowledge and adoption levels. Variables such as annual income, family type, and training attendance were positively associated with adoption levels, while older age negatively influenced the adoption and socio-economic outcomes.
The study underscores the importance of targeted interventions, emphasizing training and extension services to enhance knowledge and adoption rates. It also highlights the need for supportive policies to address socio-economic challenges, particularly for older and less-educated farmers. Findings suggest that fostering a transition to natural farming can significantly improve farmer livelihoods, environmental sustainability, and community resilience.
This research contributes empirical insights into the socio-economic dynamics of natural farming, providing valuable recommendations for policymakers, agricultural extension services, and development organizations to promote sustainable farming practices effectively.

O objetivo deste estudo é analisar as irregularidades nas prestações de contas anuais dos municípios do
interior do Estado do Amazonas, considerando os cinco maiores e cinco menores Índice de Desenvolvimento
Humano Municipal (IDHM). A metodologia utilizada foi de natureza aplicada, com finalidade descritiva e com
abordagem quali-quantitativa. Utilizou-se, ainda, o método indutivo, com procedimentos de pesquisa
bibliográfica e documental. A principal fonte para a coleta de dados foi o site do Tribunal de Contas do Estado
do Amazonas (TCE-AM), por meio da plataforma de sistema de consulta de processos chamada Domicílio
Eletrônico de Contas (DEC). Foram usadas informações retiradas de relatórios técnicos de auditoria
realizados pela Comissão de Inspeção dos municípios nos exercícios de 2020 a 2022. Os resultados obtidos
mostraram que a demora no julgamento das prestações de contas ocorre devido ao a prorrogação do prazo de
defesa do notificado, as omissões e falta de documentação na prestação de contas por parte dos gestores do
município, e a exigência na realização de novo Relatório Conclusivo pelo Gabinete do Relator. Entre as
principais irregularidades encontradas destacam-se o descumprimento do prazo de envio dos balancetes
mensais, do Relatório Resumido de Execução Orçamentária e do Relatório de Gestão Fiscal por parte dos jurisdicionados. Por fim, este estudo contribuiu para descobrir o motivo pelo qual muitas contas das prefeituras municipais são reprovadas anualmente, ou aprovadas com ressalvas.

Published: December 2024

Background: Patients with some specific psychiatric challenges require long courses of drug treatment to
improve their psychological symptoms and prevent relapses. However, patients who live in local communities
after being discharged are often repeatedly hospitalized due to relapses caused by poor medication adherence,
poor family support, poor interpersonal relationships, and stressful life events. This study investigates the effect
of Nurse-led psycho-education on the Knowledge of caregivers on factors associated with mental illness relapse
in Neuro-Hospital Akure.
Method: This study is a quasi-experimental study conducted among sixty-six family caregivers of patients with
mental illness at the Neuro-psychiatric Hospital. The data was obtained in three phases: pre-intervention phase,
intervention phase and post-intervention phase and processed using SPSS version 25. Analysis was done using
descriptive statistics such as frequency and valid percent. The hypotheses were tested using a t-test at 0.05 level
of significance.
Results: There is a significant difference between pre and post-intervention knowledge on patients-induced
factors associated with mental illness relapse (t65=9621; p-value= .000), knowledge on caregiver-induced factors
associated with mental illness relapse (t65=3.811; p-value= .009) and knowledge on environmental-induced
factors associated with mental illness relapse (t65=1.163; p-value= .081).
Conclusion: Psychoeducational intervention was instrumental in increasing knowledge on patient-induced,
caregiver-induced and environmental-induced factors associated with mental illness relapse during postintervention. Mental health nurses need to strategically prepare psycho-educational for caregivers of patients during clinic sessions to enable them to prevail over patients to avoid any form of relapse.

Published: December 2024

The study investigates the irregular occupation of urban Permanent Preservation Areas (PPAs) in Porto Velho,
focusing on residents' perceptions and proposing ecological corridors (linear parks) as a public policy solution.
With significant socio-environmental deficits, the city struggles with the impacts of unregulated urban growth,
resulting in environmental degradation and risk to residents living along urban streams. These areas face issues
like pollution, loss of riparian vegetation, and inadequate urban planning, exacerbating socio-environmental
conflicts. Drawing on legislative frameworks such as the National System of Conservation Units (SNUC), the
research highlights the potential of ecological corridors to restore ecosystems, enhance biodiversity, and
improve the urban environment. Through participatory watershed management, this study suggests a three-step
methodological approach: diagnosis of physical and socio-environmental characteristics, prognosis based on
the gathered data, and planning for ecological corridor implementation. Surveys reveal widespread occupation
and degradation of PPAs, with 71% of respondents recognizing their poor condition and 63% highlighting their
importance for urban resilience. Despite the challenges, the majority support preserving these green areas,
which offer both ecological and social benefits. This research underscores the critical role of ecological corridors in balancing urban development with environmental sustainability and proposes actionable strategies to address the socio-environmental challenges of Porto Velho.
