Published: December 2024

The seeds of Delonix regia (Flame Tree), commonly known for their medicinal properties, have not been fully explored for their mechanical properties, thereby hindering their mechanization in production and handling processes. This study investigates some moisture-dependent mechanical properties of Delonix regia seeds, using standard ASABE (American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers) protocols. Seeds were subjected to different moisture content levels, and mechanical properties such as compressive strength, rupture force, and deformation were evaluated. The results show a decrease in compressive strength from 2.919 to 2.398 MPa as moisture content increased from 7.78% to 21.67%. Similar reductions were observed in rupture force and crushing energy from 56.972N – 35.756N and 41.2mJ – 29.011m respectively. These findings provide critical data for designing equipment for seed handling and processing these seeds. Further research is necessary to explore other technological applications of the seeds.
Intervention of stony coral tissue loss disease in Utila, Honduras using Base2B and amoxicillin treatments
Authors: Cerrato Andrea Michelle , Clark Collin , Burgess Samantha
Published: December 2024

Introduction. Coral diseases are on the rise due to anthropogenic stressors, and treatment is challenging due to the complexity of replicating natural reef environments. Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD), detected in 2014 off the coast of Florida, has become one of the most lethal modern coral diseases, spreading throughout the Caribbean to Utila, Honduras. Methods. Monthly monitoring and in-situ treatments for SCTLD on 97 coral colonies over 12 months were carried out using amoxicillin and Base2B in two sites of Utila, Honduras. The paste is applied around the margins of the lesion with careful attention to application technique to maximize efficiency. Results. Of the 97 monitored corals 91.75% (n=89) of the colonies survived, with the two sites having survival rates of 97.96% and 85.42%. A total of 842 lesions were treated with only 45 lesions remaining active by the end of the monitoring period. Although treatment intervention halted the lesions it was directly applied to, it did not stop the appearance of new SCTLD lesions on coral colonies. Conclusion. It was found that the treatments themselves are highly effective. Previously infected and healed corals were observed spawning indicating that the treatment works in keeping the corals healthy enough to reproduce. This treatment is suggested as early-stage intervention to help keep as many genotypes of highly susceptible species viable as possible.

A Study of the Critical Organisational Factors at Play in Unmasking Counterproductive Work Behaviours in IT/ITES Organisations in NCR
Authors: Aanchal Dangwal, Dr. Priyanka Pradhan
Published: December 2024

Purpose: This study investigates key organizational factors that influence Counterproductive Work Behaviors (CWBs) in IT/ITES organizations in the NCR region. It aims to identify and validate these factors to offer practical insights for reducing workplace misconduct and promoting a positive organizational culture.Design/Methodology/Approach: Drawing from a comprehensive literature review, this research investigates the roles of Organizational Justice, Peer Relationship, Work Meaningfulness, Organizational Reward and Recognition, the Impact of Technology on Work Autonomy, and Work-Life Balance in mitigating CWBs. A survey was conducted with 100 IT/ITES employees in NCR, and hierarchical regression analysis was utilized to evaluate the predictive strength of these factors.Findings:The results highlight the necessity of flexible policies and encouraging work environments by showing that Work-Life Balance (-0.395, p<0.001) is the most important predictor of Counterproductive Work Behaviours (CWBs). Organisational incentive & Recognition (-0.285, p<0.001) is an important predictor, illustrating how fair and organised incentive systems can help reduce CWBs. Organisational justice (-0.191, p<0.001) consistently reduces CWBs by promoting openness, equity, and fairness. Furthermore, the study proposes that changing technological oversight to increase employee autonomy can help to reduce workplace misconduct. While demographic factors like age initially appear significant, their impact lessens as organizational factors take precedence. The model accounts for 31.7% of the variance in CWBs, providing moderate explanatory power.Research Limitations: The findings of this study are constrained by a small sample size of 100 participants, which limits the generalizability of the results. Moreover, its focus on the IT/ITES sector in the NCR region may not reflect cultural and contextual differences found in other regions or industries.

Langues et musique populaire : étude des choix et représentations linguistiques des acteurs du Konpa dans la diaspora haïtienne à partir d'entrevues semi-dirigées
Authors: Joinville Nazaire
Published: December 2024

Konpa, Haiti's popular music of choice, reflects the country's multilingual reality, being sung frequently in several different languages, including French and Creole. Building on this observation, this study examines the linguistic attitudes of Konpa industry participants and their views on the language choices in Konpa songs. Based on semi-structured interviews conducted with eight individuals highly involved in the Konpa scene in Montreal and Miami, the findings reveal a largely unfavourable perception of French, Haiti’s co-official language mainly spoken by the country’s elite. In contrast, Creole, the mother tongue of most Haitians, is revealed to be not only the preferred language in the participants' Konpa songs but to also be considered to resonate deeply with the identity of both diaspora musicians and the broader Haitian community. Konpa thus reflects Haitian reality, especially its linguistic conflicts, which have been prevalent for more than two centuries.

Authors: Kirişci Ilker , Çelçima Deniz
Published: December 2024

Study aim(s): The study aims to assess the transfer ratio of theoretical knowledge to practical application among sports science students during artistic gymnastic lessons.
The study sample included 47 second-grade students (37 girls and 10 boys) from the coaching, exercise, management, recreation, and enabled people’s department within the Faculty of Sport Sciences at Istanbul Gelisim University.
Methods: The analyses of the student's practical scores consist of Practical Routine (PR: 25%), Assistance in Gymnastics (AG: 15%), and Learning Steeps (LS: 15%). The student's theoretical scores were evaluated based on General Performance (GP: 10%), Physical Preparation (PP: 15%), Theoretical preparation (THP: 10%), and Technique evaluation (TE: 10%). To ensure result validity, overall scores from online education were also tested. SPSS 26 programs were used for the data analysis, applying descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and canonical correlation analyses.
Results: The study revealed a significant correlation between students’ overall scores and both theoretical (p<0.05, r=0.497) and practical (p<0.05, r=0.920) knowledge. The correlation coefficient of the GS to the practical and theoretical variables was determined as follows: PR (r=0.686), AG (r=0.799), LS (r=0.799), GP (r=0.720), PP (r=0.685), (r=0.scores), and TE (r=0.511). 
Conclusion: It can be concluded that, while practice shows a limited ability to explain theoretical knowledge, theory tends to explain practical knowledge more effectively in the first canonical variable.
ASSESSMENT OF FOREST AREA DYNAMICS IN SOUTH-EAST ROMANIA USING FRACTAL FRAGMENTATION INDICES
Authors: Andronache Ion , Ciobotaru Ana-Maria
Published: December 2024

: In this paper, we examine the dynamics of forest areas in the Dobrogea Plateau and Danube Delta
using the Fractal Fragmentation and Disorder Index (FFDI) and the Fractal Fragmentation Index (FFI).
Landsat images from the Global Forest Change dataset were used to perform the analysis. The results
indicate a significant increase in fragmentation and spatial disorder of tree cover loss, particularly in 2006,
when the FFDI consistently exceeded 0.7. By 2023, the FFDI reached 0.831, signaling a continuous increase
in the fragmentation of forest ecosystems. Until 2009, the FFI was 0, indicating minimal tree cover loss, but
the gradual decline in FFI values after 2009 reflects the expansion of tree cover loss into new areas. This
paper highlights the negative effects of fragmentation on local biodiversity, emphasizing the importance of monitoring forest ecosystems.

This article presents the results of the creation and replenishment of new generations of
domesticated pike-perch (Sander lucioperca) obtained in pond conditions. Rearing two-year-old pike-perch
from the second generation at a stocking density of 12 yearlings per hectare allows for an average weight of
250 g and a fish productivity of 2.2 kg/ha. Rearing three-year-old pike-perch from the first generation at a
stocking density of 20 two-year-olds per hectare results in an average weight of 511 g and a fish productivity
of 9.4 kg/ha. Rearing yearlings of the third generation with continuous rearing at a stocking density of 150
fry per hectare leads to an average weight of 16.8 g. The rearing of yearlings, two-year-olds, and three-year-olds has demonstrated their high productivity and resistance to the conditions of pond farms in the Republic
of Moldova. This allows for their use in replenishing new lines and creating new broodstocks of pike-perch
from the pond population.

The study evaluates the eco-chemical status of five aquatic objects in the Dniester River
basin by monitoring the seasonal content of thiolic compounds from 2020 to 2023. Throughout the
monitoring period, the content of thiols varied within the range of 10-6 M, which is a typical concentration
for this type of natural waters. The experimental data indicate a natural origin for the thiolic compounds in
all water bodies, with maximum concentrations recorded in summer when biological productivity is at its
peak, and lower concentrations in spring and autumn. Additionally, the negative influence of the tributaries
of the Dniester River, specifically the Raut and Ichel rivers, was established, as they directly contribute to
reducing the intensity of the self-purification processes in the Dniester waters during spring and autumn.

Improving soil health is one of the main conditions for the transition to a more sustainable
and resilient agricultural system, including to organic agriculture. Soil should be considered as living
organism, able to function when the nutrients and the uncompensated mineralizational losses of soil organic
matter are returned back in the soil. Respecting crop rotations with a higher diversity of crops, especially
perennial herbaceous crops, applying organic fertilizers, reduction or avoiding mechanical disturbance of the
soil are the basics for improving soil health and the transition to a more sustainable farming system.

Published: December 2024

Moldova, as a Party of the Aarhus Convention from 1999 until now, could not solve the
issue of free access to environmental information for the public. The article analyses the reasons for this
stagnation and how to find a successful solution. Two communications to the Aarhus Convention
Compliance Committee are analyzed with the demonstration of the sources of the problem: the old mentality,the lack of political will of the government to solve the issue, and the intentions of bureaucracy to get bribes
for the environmental information provision and to preserve the monopoly on the data collected by public
money. Such a situation creates serious obstacles for research dealing with environmental data and for
international agencies in their intentions to provide technical assistance to Moldova in many spheres. As a
result of the multiyear inaction, the Ministry of Environment, responsible for the Aarhus Convention
implementation, is now placed in an uncomfortable position.

Published: December 2024

A pandemia de COVID-19 impactou significativamente o manejo de doenças
crônicas, como a insuficiência cardíaca (IC), levando a uma redução global e nacional nas
internações por essa condição, especialmente em 2020. Este estudo analisou internações por
IC no Brasil de 2019 a 2024, com foco no estado de São Paulo (SP), utilizando dados do
SIH/SUS via DATASUS. Os resultados apontaram uma queda de 16,23% nas internações em
2020 em comparação a 2019, devido às restrições sanitárias e ao temor dos pacientes de
buscar atendimento. Em 2021, os números permaneceram estáveis, mas a partir de 2022
houve uma recuperação de 19,32%, refletindo a retomada gradual dos atendimentos. São
Paulo representou 19,47% das internações em 2019 e, em 2020, elevou sua participação para
20,38% devido à redução mais acentuada em outras regiões. Em 2024, São Paulo respondeu
por 21,02% do total nacional, indicando uma recuperação proporcional ao restante do país.
Globalmente, quedas similares foram observadas em países como Alemanha e Inglaterra,
atribuídas ao uso da telemedicina, distanciamento social e redirecionamento de recursos
hospitalares. O estudo reforça a importância de estratégias que garantam continuidade no
atendimento de pacientes com IC em crises futuras.
CULTURA AFRO-BRASILEIRA: uma breve análise da influência africana na cultura brasileira
Authors: Reis da Silva Araujo Vanúcia
Published: December 2024

A pesquisa objetiva-se apresentar de maneira breve a análise de alguns aspectos
da cultura do Brasil que foram influenciados pela cultura africana. A história brasileira é
construída em pluralidade de povos, essa diversidade de etnias no Brasil teve seu início no
período colonial, momento em que escravos africanos de diferentes regiões eram trazidos para
o país. Dessa maneira, o presente trabalho tem como problematização analisar as
contribuições culturais dos africanos na construção da cultura brasileira. No cenário atual, a
cada dia se faz mais necessárias abordagens do tema em questão. Conhecer a influência do
povo africano na cultura brasileira, nos permite compreender não somente a trajetória dos
africanos em terras brasileiras, mas sobretudo da sua rica contribuição na pluralidade de nossa
cultura atual. Com a chegada dos africanos a cultura existente foi incrementada, apesar da
situação sofrida que essas pessoas se encontravam não deixaram os costumes e crenças de
sua terra de origem, contribuindo assim em vários aspectos na formação da cultura do Brasil. A
título de exemplo, podemos citar a música, a língua, a dança, a culinária, a religião a arte entre
tantos outros. Em síntese, podemos dizer que a cultura africana no Brasil não permaneceu
intacta, mas foi acrescentado a ela traços de outras culturas, portuguesa e indígena. Para a
realização do artigo, nos apoiamos em informações coletadas de natureza bibliográficas
fazendo uso de livros, teses e artigos fidedignos que fazem abordagem sobre assuntos
pertinentes ao tema em questão, o objetivo desse estudo identifica-se de forma exploratória e
descritiva com abordagem qualitativa.
O PARTO HUMANIZADO COMO FORMA DE EMPODERAMENTO DAS MULHERES ATENDIDAS PELO SISTEMA ÚNICO DE SAÚDE (SUS)
Authors: Pereira de Souza Izaque , Andressa Woicolesco Michele
Published: December 2024

O trabalho de parto, considerado por muitos um dos mais importantes momentos
da vida da mulher deslocou-se do domicílio para o hospital. Essa mudança fez eclodir uma
nova cultura de atendimento à gestante parturiente, depreciando por vezes o cuidado humano
em características afetivas e socioculturais e refletindo em danos à saúde da mãe e do bebê. O
foco deste artigo foi analisar o histórico do parto humanizado no Brasil com enfoque no
Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) e avaliar se a gestante tem compreensão do parto humanizado
como um direito reprodutivo bem como compreender se os partos do sistema público
promovem a humanização e o empoderamento feminino. A partir dos hospitais pesquisados e
credenciados ao SUS nos foi possível constatar que poucos são os que desenvolvem

Se presenta un caso de queratitis causada por Nigrospora sp., en una persona de la comunidad de la Gran Caracas-Venezuela, usuaria de lentes de contacto de 43 años de edad. Se recibió en el laboratorio de microbiología muestra de secreción corneal sembrada en agar sabouraud dextrosa con gentamicina y lente de contacto izquierdo a quien se le realizó examen directo con KOH al 20 % observándose la presencia de hifas septadas conduciendo a un diagnóstico rápido de queratitis fúngica y confirmación por cultivo de Nigrospora sp. Se instauró una precoz terapia antifúngica tópica con una única dosis intraestromal de voriconazol al 1 %, natamicina al 5 % y gotas de voriconazol al 1 %. Es de importancia la confirmación diagnóstica precisa en el manejo de queratitis por hongos para evitar el uso innecesario de antimicrobianos y de afecciones que requieren de procedimientos quirúrgicos.
From Landing site to Local Centre
Authors: Linaa Jette
Published: December 2024

The Viking Age represents a period of significant dynamism, during which local centres and urban sites participated to varying extents in maritime networks. This paper investigates the development, activities, and maritime engagement of the Danish town of Aarhus, located on the East Coast of Jutland, during the Viking Age. In previous research, Aarhus has been portrayed as a prominent town founded in the 8th century with substantial ties to maritime networks. However, this study challenges that narrative through a comparative analysis of structures and 16,000 from 20 excavations—contextualised alongside findings from Ribe, Hedeby, and Kaupang. The analysis indicates that 8th- and 9th-century Aarhus was primarily an agrarian settlement focused on exploiting coastal resources and exhibiting weak maritime connections. Despite the site's fortification in the early 10th century, the town's activities remained unchanged. It was not until the late 10th century that Aarhus began to develop characteristics of a town, marked by local trade, denser settlement and specialised crafts, yet significant maritime contacts were still absent. Consequently, Aarhus did not emerge as a key hub in Viking Age maritime networks, and its strategic geographic position between the Baltic and the North Sea remained unrealised until the Middle Ages.
The View from Above and its Counter-Appropriation
Authors: Ohls Hauke
Published: December 2024

The term “view from above” does not merely describe an aerial perspective using digital technologies. According to Macarena Gómez-Barris, it is an extractive and neoliberal tool for transforming territories into areas to be exploited. In contrast, she introduces “submerged perspectives,” which can always be found in these territories and are characterized by relations on the ground. An argument based on opposites should always make one suspicious, especially when considering contemporary artistic practices. This article demonstrates that contemporary works of art can unleash the critical potential of the view from above. Two works, one by Carolina Caycedo and the other by Forensic Architecture, are analyzed to demonstrate a substantial expansion of the view from above. Contemporary art has the capability to counter-appropriate a supposedly hegemonic instrument and, thus, offers the possibility of rejecting constructed and abstract dichotomies.
Performing Profiling: Algorithmic Enunciation, Transgender Perspectives, and Ada Ada Ada's in transitu
Authors: Pold Søren Bro
Published: December 2024

What kind of reading and viewing space is created within contemporary platforms? While existing research has explored the impact of surveillance, this article moves on to theoretically discuss the intersection of technosocial reading. It examines how algorithmic interpellation and profiling function as enunciative strategies, and how this is explored from a transgender perspective. The article raises theoretical questions about the flattening of enunciation and its implications for a critical reading and observation space. To further explore these concepts, it analyses Ada Ada Ada’s year-long in transitu Instagram performance. Through this analysis, the challenges posed by fixed, binary gender categorisations prevalent on platforms like Instagram are unpacked. Ada Ada Ada’s performance serves as an imminent criticism of the enunciative, representational and gender policies of platforms, demonstrating their arbitrary and absurd nature. Ultimately, in transitu invites platform users to reconsider their roles as technosocial readers and observers.
The Systematic Relation between the Notions of Predisposition to Good and Propensity to Evil
Authors: Cabezas Sebastian
Published: December 2024

Kant’s Religion Within the Boundaries of Mere Reason has been a controversial text within Kant scholarship since its earliest reception. One of the main reasons for the critical reception relates to Kant’s theory of radical evil and the notion of propensity to evil connected therewith. It has become a commonplace in Kant literature to attribute these Kantian doctrines to a sort of late concession to Christian theology, as can be observed in the tenor of the reception by e.g. Goethe, Schiller and Michalson (1990), among others. Against this view, I aim to show in this article that the most striking and controversial claims contained in Kant’s doctrine of evil, namely the assumption of an intelligible deed, the universality of evil in humans as well as the inextirpability of the propensity to evil, can be accounted for by paying attention to the systematic relation between Kant’s notions of Anlage and Hang and the key trait distinguishing them, namely practical objectivity. By doing so, it shall become clear that Kant’s main contentious claims in Religion I can be sufficiently explained by systematic commitments of his own critical moral philosophy, thus rendering the references to Christian theology found in secondary literature superfluous.
¿Es viable emplear la noción de "conciencia fenoménica" para explicar la conciencia en la filosofía de Kant?
Authors: Castillo Vallez Javier Enrique
Published: December 2024

Esta investigación aborda la pregunta: ¿Puede el concepto contemporáneo de “conciencia fenoménica”, según se expone en los trabajos de Indregard (2018) y Longuenesse (2023), ser una herramienta conceptual para explicar ciertos usos del término “conciencia” en el pensamiento de Kant, tal como lo destaca la literatura secundaria?
La hipótesis principal sostiene que dicho concepto no puede integrarse adecuadamente en el marco conceptual kantiano debido a dificultades textuales y sistemáticas. Se destacan las dificultades de vincular la conciencia con la sensación, la implicación de una brecha explicativa y la relación con el problema mente-cuerpo. Sin embargo, la propuesta busca ir más allá de la revisión crítica de la literatura secundaria. También se pretende examinar la naturaleza del ejercicio realizado por Indregard y Longuenesse, y evaluar si los supuestos introducidos en el pensamiento de Kant podrían ser aceptados en este marco conceptual. Con ello, se mostrará que la posición de Kant proporciona algunas claves para replantear los supuestos contemporáneos mediante los cuales la conciencia se sitúa en el contexto de un problema.
EVALUATION OF PEDAGOGICAL COMPETENCES AND MOTIVATION OF TAEKWONDO COACHES FOR PERMANENT EDUCATION
Authors: Njegovan Jovana , Jorgić Draženko
Published: December 2024

The goal of this research was to examine the degree of agreement between athletes and taekwondo coaches in their assessments of pedagogical competence and motivation of taekwondo coaches for permanent education. The research sample consisted of 10 coaches of the Taekwondo Association of Bosnia and Herzegovina and 265 taekwondo athletes. For this purpose, a quantitative-qualitative research was conducted. By defining and specifying the research goal, nine causally elaborated research tasks were defined. The defined research tasks represent the fundamental segments of the problem and research subject. Through the realization of the quantitative part of the research and the application of a five-level scale intended for athletes, their assessment of the pedagogical competencies and motivation of taekwondo coaches for permanent education was determined. In contrast to the assessment of athletes, the self-assessment of taekwondo coaches for permanent education was determined through the logical analysis of the answers received during the interview and through the analysis of the record of the participation of coaches of the Taekwondo Association of Bosnia and Herzegovina in international seminars. With the help of a five-level scale intended for coaches, a self-assessment of the coaches' pedagogical competences was carried out. The obtained results indicate that there is no significant difference between athletes and taekwondo coaches regarding their assessment of pedagogical competence and motivation for permanent education. Athletes believe that their coaches demonstrate high pedagogical competence for the training process and high motivation for permanent education. The coaches are of the same opinion in their personal self-assessment. The only significant difference relates to the tendency of taekwondo coaches towards physical and psychological violence against athletes.
