Published: October 2024

Myristica fragrans Houtt leaves contain secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, terpenoids and alkaloids, which have antibacterial properties. At the nanoscale, the particles have a bigger surface contact area, resulting in increased amounts and solubility of the active chemical. This leads to a stronger antibacterial activity. This study aims to examine the influence of several chitosan variations on particle size, antibacterial properties and the form of nanoparticles produced from Myristica fragrans leaves ethanol extract. Ethanol extract was analyzed using the UV-Vis spectrophotometric method to quantify total flavonoid content. Nanoparticles were synthesized using the ionic gelation technique with several ratios of chitosan and sodium tripolyphosphate, specifically 8:1, 10:1 and 12:1. Nanoparticles were analyzed with a Particle Size Analyzer (PSA) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Agar diffusion test for bacteria germs using a paper backer. Myristica fragrans leaves ethanol extract was 50, 40 and 30 %, while nanoparticle extract was 5, 4 and 3 %. The overall flavonoid concentration in the QE/ethanol extract was 39.7252 ± 1.9596 mg. Antibacterial test results against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria and Myristica fragrans leaves extract limit inhibition area at 30 % (13.35 mm), 40 % (13.68 mm) and 50 % (13.93 mm) for Staphylococcus aureus and 30 (13.28), 40 (13.45) and 50 % (13.81 mm) for Escherichia coli. Myristica fragrans leaves extract chitosan nanoparticles included 3 (14.70), 4 (15.30) and 5 % (15.56 mm) for Staphylococcus aureus and 3 (14.60), 4 (14.65) and 5 % (15.05 mm) for Escherichia coli. Ionic gelation can create nanoparticles of Myristica fragrans leaves ethanol extract with chitosan and sodium tripolyphosphate. Myristica fragrans leaves nanoparticle ethanol extract exhibits better antibacterial activity than ethanol extract. Increasing chitosan concentration affects particle size. The ethanol extract of Myristica fragrans nanoparticle leaves showed slightly better antibacterial activity than the ethanol extract.

Published: October 2024

Endometriosis is a significant reproductive health issue with pain being the primaru symptom. The complex pain in endometriosis involves the activation of macrophages, inflammatory activators such as NF-kB, neural growth factors (NGF), cytokines, adhesive molecules (ICAM-1), and mediators (PGE2) which they are stimulate sensory nerve fibers and produce nociceptive signals. This study is aim for investigate the effect of Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) administration on the expression of NF-kB, NGF, and PGE2 concentration in a mouse model of endometriosis. Thirty-three mices were randomly divided into 3 groups consist non-endometriosis (P0), endometriosis without treatment (P1), and endometriosis with MSC administration (P2). The results showed MSC administration significantly reduced the expression of NF-kB by found scoring 2 groups (P1: 6.96 ± 0.13 and P2: 4.446 ± 0.228) and NGF (P1: 7.118 ± 0.629 and P2: 4.927 ± 1.187) also PGE2 (P1:1005.862 ± 176.656 and P2: 891.218 ± 54.031. In onclusion, this study demonstrates that MSC administration can able reduce the expression of NF-kB and NGF, but not to PGE2. The suggestion we can said is the MSC have potential therapeutic value in managing endometriosis-asssosciated pain by modulating inflammatory and neurotrophic factors.

Published: October 2024

Women safety is a very big issue even in this modern world running with advanced technologies. After a history of times, women got a freedom of equality at the workplace, asset rights, family law, and education. Even Feminist Movement, claimed during 20th Century, Women are not safe anywhere and violence against women and girl child’s happening everywhere during the lonely travelling on roads, picnic spots, work and deserted places. Though we have many armies and super forces to protect everybody, the day to day crime rate against women has not been reduced. There are several safety devices available to protect the women during the violence, but need more human intervention such as entering the data, or shaking the device roughly. We propose a solution for a secure and peaceful environment for women with handbag safety hand-held devices with the aim to provide false proof women safety devices by overcoming the disadvantages in existing system. When we are talking more about Women empowerment, Women achievements it is also very important to think about women safety since a huge numbers (848) of women’s are Indian Women Are Harassed, Raped, Killed Every Day. The proposed work aims at IoT based women safety device by hardware controller attached to the handbag, android application and Bluetooth connectivity in Smartphone. By pressing the controller button, the device alerts the first holder, relatives stored in the database and police when a woman is not safe. The main advantage of the work is, the device works without internet connectivity. Additional features such as protecting the valuable things to be stolen by thieves in crowded places or buses by a separate alarming system, heartbeat sensor setup to monitor heart rate, fingerprint scanner for effecting accessing of the devices and also the mobile android application provide the victim’s location to reach the women and safeguard the women from any harassment at the right time. The main thought of this paper is that it will not only protect the women from physical harassment during odd hours but also safe the women health when it is found abnormal, as a single device comparatively.

Published: October 2024

This study explores the use of PET plastic wastes as a binder for making wall cladding in Tanzania. Traditional wall cladding materials used for construction are marbles, industrial porcelain, steel, glass panels etc. These materials have relatively higher prices for medium and low-income people in Tanzania. Plastic wastes are none degradable when dumped on sites and they contribute to environmental pollution.  The use of PET plastics for making wall cladding will reduce tonnage of waste PET on site and reduce cost of construction materials. Characterization of materials and strength tests of specimens made from hot mixing of PET plastics and sand were conducted under laboratory condition. This research demonstrates the feasibility of transforming PET waste into a durable construction resource. A composite material was fabricated using recycled PET plastic and sand in various mix ratios (1:4, 3:7, 2:3, 1:1 and 3:2) under controlled temperature of 250°C. Specimens were tested for density, water absorption, compressive strength, and impact strength. Experimental results revealed that sand with a silica content of at least 84.8% is suitable for making wall cladding. The results indicated that specimens with mix proportions of 1:1 PET and sand exhibited low water absorption of 0.84%, high compressive strength of 17MPa and high Impact strength which indicated no defects up to 1.494 Joules. For this study therefore, wall cladding composites mixed at a ratio of 50% PET plastic and 50% sand indicated promising results. By utilizing PET waste, this research offers a promising solution for reducing plastic pollution, due to plastic wastes, promoting sustainable construction practices and reducing construction costs in Tanzania.

Published: October 2024

Schizophrenia is a chronic mental disorder that requires long-term treatment and is often accompanied by the risk of relapse. Relapse refers to the return of symptoms after a period of improvement or remission. This study aims to examine the effects of family support, medication adherence, and environmental support on relapse in schizophrenia patients. A quantitative approach was used to test the established hypothesis. Data were collected through a questionnaire that measured the variables of family support, medication adherence, and environmental support. Testing was carried out by analyzing validity, reliability, and R-Square analysis using the PLS (Partial Least Squares) model. The results showed that all instruments were valid and reliable, with Cronbach's Alpha and Composite Reliability values greater than 0.7. R-Square analysis indicated that family support, medication adherence, and environmental support collectively explained 63.3% of the variability in relapse among schizophrenia patients. Hypothesis testing demonstrated a positive and significant relationship between these three variables and schizophrenia relapse. This study confirms that family support, adherence to medication regimens, and positive environmental support can significantly reduce the risk of relapse in schizophrenia patients. Interventions focusing on improving these aspects may contribute to more effective management of schizophrenia and enhance patients' quality of life.

Acmeological competence is an important issue for future social educators. This competence contributes to developing their skills to implement their professional activities, adjusting to changing circumstances, and being adaptable in professional endeavors in a rapidly changing world. This paper explores the current situation of future social educators’ acmeological competence. The aim of this research is to define the current state of acmeological competence of future social educators and give recommendations to improve the situation. To collect the data a survey related to social educators’ acmeological competence has been employed. The conducted survey revealed that approximately half of the future social educators are unfamiliar with the term. However, despite their unfamiliarity with “acmeology”, they understand the importance of professional development. The authors of the research believe that incorporating acmeological competence components into the social education curricula and developing initiatives aimed at enhancing acmeological competence will increase future social educators’ acmeological awareness and skills.

The competition in the modern education system is growing every year. Nowadays, to gain confidence in the professional field, it is important for teachers to express themselves by developing their personal brand. We understand the teacher’s personal brand as the habit of being popular among colleagues and creating one’s own professional and personal identity. In recent decades, the issue of the necessity for teachers to possess flexible skills in order to perform their professional duties has become increasingly pertinent. The research article examines the role of soft skills in shaping a teacher’s personal brand, which has become a crucial aspect in contemporary professional settings. This study is based on theoretical frameworks of personal brand formation, complemented by practical observations and analysis of current demands placed on teachers. The authors posit that the identification of the structural components of soft skills, which are critical for the development of a teacher’s personal brand, will facilitate this process by considering the specific attributes of the phenomenon and the particularities of teachers’ professional activities. The article identifies and delineates the structural components of soft skills, including self-presentation, emotional intelligence, fairness, creativity, leadership. To validate the proposed hypothesis, a survey was conducted using the digital platform Google Forms. The survey consisted of two stages: at the first stage, we surveyed respondents who were not teachers; they were asked 8 questions; At the second stage, teachers were interviewed and asked 5 questions. The analysis of the results indicates that the development of the identified soft skills contributes to the formation of a positive image of the teacher and significantly influences the enhancement of professional status, as well as the quality and efficiency of the educational process.

Introdução: A Síndrome de Sheehan, uma condição resultante da necrose da glândula pituitária pós-parto, pode manifestar-se através de diversas complicações, incluindo manifestações cardiovasculares. A insuficiência hormonal decorrente dessa síndrome afeta não apenas o sistema endócrino, mas também impacta a saúde cardiovascular das pacientes. As mulheres afetadas frequentemente apresentam hipertensão, arritmias e outras anormalidades cardiovasculares, que necessitam de uma abordagem clínica cuidadosa. A avaliação ginecológica é fundamental para o diagnóstico precoce e o manejo adequado dessas complicações, considerando a inter-relação entre a saúde hormonal e cardiovascular. Objetivo: Analisar as evidências sobre as manifestações cardiovasculares da Síndrome de Sheehan, além de explorar as estratégias de manejo clínico e a importância da avaliação ginecológica na detecção dessas condições. Metodologia: A pesquisa foi realizada de acordo com o checklist PRISMA, abrangendo artigos publicados nos últimos dez anos. As bases de dados utilizadas foram PubMed, Scielo e Web of Science, e foram aplicados cinco descritores: "Síndrome de Sheehan", "complicações cardiovasculares", "avaliação ginecológica", "hipopituitarismo" e "saúde da mulher". Os critérios de inclusão consistiram em estudos que abordaram manifestações cardiovasculares na síndrome, pesquisas com dados clínicos relevantes e revisões sistemáticas sobre o tema. Por outro lado, os critérios de exclusão foram artigos não relacionados, estudos com amostras não representativas e publicações que não tratavam de aspectos ginecológicos. Resultados: Os resultados revelaram uma prevalência significativa de complicações cardiovasculares em mulheres com Síndrome de Sheehan, destacando a necessidade de um acompanhamento rigoroso. As principais manifestações incluíram hipertensão arterial, distúrbios de ritmo cardíaco e alterações no metabolismo lipídico. Além disso, a literatura indicou que uma avaliação ginecológica criteriosa é essencial para o manejo integrado dessas pacientes, promovendo intervenções precoces que podem reduzir o risco cardiovascular. Conclusão: A Síndrome de Sheehan apresenta implicações clínicas significativas, especialmente no que tange às manifestações cardiovasculares. O manejo clínico deve ser multidisciplinar, integrando a avaliação ginecológica para garantir um tratamento eficaz e melhorar a qualidade de vida das pacientes. A literatura evidencia a importância de um monitoramento contínuo e da abordagem holística na gestão dessas complicações, promovendo assim a saúde e o bem-estar das mulheres afetadas.
