Published: October 2024

Body Mass Index (BMI) is a basic tool for assessing body mass based on height and weight, classifying individuals in BMI categories as underweight, normal, overweight, or obese. However, it has limitations as it overlooks muscle mass and fat distribution. Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) plays a crucial role in measuring the current maintenance calories, surplus calories for weight gain, and deficit calories for weight loss associated with Bansal Metabolic Rate (BMR) and Physical Activity Level (PAL). TDEE is related to 3 phases incline, stable, and decline according to age groups. Keeping these parameters, the current review focused on BMI, TDEE, BMR and calories. Calories are essential for understanding the energy the body stores and uses, making them a key factor for weight management. Macronutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, and fats provide different amounts of energy, which can impact insulin levels and trigger cravings. Tools like BMI and BMR are useful, but focusing solely on counting calories is not enough for effective weight management. A sustainable approach includes understanding how the body processes different foods, choosing nutrient-rich options, regulating blood sugar, and staying physically active are discussed. This work reveals the long-term well-being for weight management via focused on BMI, TDEE, BMR and calories.

Authors: Erhijakpor Andrew E.O. , Aninze Kelvin Chineye
Published: October 2024

This study empirically investigated and examined the effect of financial development on economic performance in Nigeria covering the period of 32 years spanning from 1990 to 2022. The study utilized of five (5) financial development proxies namely ratio of broad money to gross domestic product (M2GDP), ratio of credit to private sector to GDP (CPSGDP), ratio of domestic credit to GDP (DCGDP), foreign direct investment, (FDI), Government expenditure to GDP (GEGDP), and three (3) control variables; interest rate (INTR), served as the independent variables while one (1) economic performance variables namely ; Inflation rate (INFR) and Corruption (COR) GDP Growth Rate which served as the dependent variables in the study. Data were sourced from World Bank and Macro Trends and Transparency International Corruption from 1990 to 2023. Multiple regression model technique via E- view software 9.0 was adopted to test the hypotheses in the study. The result revealed that only ratio of domestic credit to GDP (DCGDP), foreign direct investment, (FDI), and interest rate (INTR), was found to have an insignificant positive effect on GDP growth rate while ratio of broad money to gross domestic product (M2GDP), ratio of credit to private sector to GDP (CPSGDP), Government expenditure to GDP (GEGDP), Inflation rate (INFR) and Corruption (COR) was found to have an significant negative effect on GDP growth rate. Thus, we concluded that there are both positive and negative significant impacts of financial development on the economic performance in Nigeria for years under review using the model of specifications i.e. GDP growth rate. To this end, we recommend that CBN should stimulate GDP growth rate by increasing proportionately to GDP, the volumes of money supply and private sector credits. This can be achieved through open market operation and reducing the cost of borrowing.

Published: October 2024

This study investigates the influence of Reverse Logistics Strategies (RLS) on the performance of food and beverage manufacturing firms in Nairobi City County, Kenya, as part of a broader exploration of Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM) strategies. Using a descriptive cross-sectional research design, data were collected from a sample of 164 respondents across 138 firms, achieving a 90.9% response rate. Simple and multiple regression analyses, alongside Pearson’s product-moment and Spearman’s Rank Correlation, were employed to analyze the data via SPSS version 28. The findings indicate that RLS have a statistically significant negative impact on firm performance across multiple models, with coefficients ranging from -0.026 to -0.027 and p-values less than 0.000. This negative association persists despite a positive relationship being observed between RLS and original firm performance metrics prior to data transformation. These results suggest that while RLS may incur additional costs or operational challenges that negatively affect short-term performance metrics, they could contribute positively to long-term sustainability and efficiency. This study provides insights into the complex role of reverse logistics in the Kenyan manufacturing sector, offering implications for both managerial practices and policy development aimed at improving firm performance within a sustainable framework.
A Petroleum Phaseout Plan for California: Charting a Path to Clean Transportation
Authors: Martin Jeremy
Published: October 2024

As California transitions to a transportation system powered by clean electricity, it must phase out the existing supply chain for petroleum fuels in an orderly process—one that protects communities, workers, and consumers. The transition offers an opportunity not only to reduce pollution dramatically but also to invest in communities harmed by the production and use of fossil fuels. However, only careful planning and new policies will ensure that the oil industry does not exploit the transition to evade its responsibilities to workers and communities or unfairly profit from reduced competition in the fuel marketplace.

Authors: Fogel Yael , Gilboa Yafit , Meyer Sonya
Published: October 2024

Importance: The Adult Executive Functioning Inventory (ADEXI)—a short, practical, self-report questionnaire accessible across diverse adult populations and languages—was used to assess executive functions (EFs), primarily inhibition and working memory.

Objective: To examine the construct validity of the ADEXI Hebrew version through exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and convergent validity by correlating scores with similar measures of EF.

Design and Setting: Cross-sectional study using online anonymous surveys.

Participants: Nonclinical sample of 239 adults, 74.1% women, ages 18 to 80 yr (Mage = 44.19 yr, SD = 12.89).

Outcomes and Measures: The Hebrew version of the 14-item ADEXI, a demographic questionnaire, and the Dysexecutive Questionnaire (DEX).

Results: Descriptive statistics, Cronbach’s α EFA using varimax rotation, and Pearson’s correlations were used. Total internal consistency was good (α = .86). Unlike the two factors in the original English version, our construct validity through EFA revealed three factors—inhibition, working memory, and, uniquely, flexibility—that accounted for 55.71% of the variance. Convergent validity was supported by medium to large significant correlations (r =.29–.76) between the ADEXI and the DEX subscales and total scores.

Conclusions and Relevance: Our findings offer psychometric evidence to support using the Hebrew version of the ADEXI for EF assessments in adult Hebrew-speaking populations.

Plain-Language Summary: The Adult Executive Functioning Inventory (ADEXI) assesses three key components: inhibition, working memory, and cognitive flexibility. In this study, we examined the construct validity of the Hebrew version of the ADEXI to assess executive functions. Our findings support using the ADEXI in Hebrew-speaking populations. The ADEXI offers occupational therapy practitioners serving Hebrew-speaking populations in their practice a validated tool for assessing executive functions.

Authors: Taole-Kolisang Lieketseng , Makamane Anathi , Khetsha Zenzile
Published: October 2024

Agricultural production has long been a cornerstone of livelihoods in rural areas, providing essential resources and economic stability to communities worldwide. In recent years, there has been growing interest in the role of agriculture as a sustainable livelihood strategy for youth in these regions, especially in Africa, where the youth make up most of the population. This paper explores the impact of agricultural projects under the Comprehensive Rural Development Programme (CRDP) on improving the livelihoods of rural communities and empowering youth in Qwaqwa (Phuthaditjhaba), Free State. It investigates the programme’s impact on youth skills development, access to resources, and entrepreneurial opportunities, as well as identifying opportunities and challenges youth face within the context of the CRDP. This paper followed a case study design with a qualitative approach to describe, compare, evaluate, and identify patterns or cause-and-effect relationships between the various variables. Findings indicate that most CRDP-trained youths use their skills for household purposes, and some become job creators. However, there is also evidence that the trainees need additional support to increase production and market participation. The paper recommends that youth in rural and peri-urban areas require further interventions from governmental and non-governmental agencies to support strategies for increased production and job creation, which will, in turn, improve their livelihoods to meet the SDGs.
Harnessing Fuzzy Cognitive Maps for Advancing AI with Hybrid Interpretability and Learning Solutions
Authors: Leon Maikel
Published: October 2024

Advancements that merge the clarity of symbolic AI with the adaptive learning traits of subsymbolic AI show great potential at the intersection of these two AI forms. This study introduces Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCMs). This hybrid model integrates the optimal characteristics of both frameworks to address the challenges of interpretability and explainability in artificial intelligence (AI) systems. FCMs provide a robust framework for logically and intuitively supporting decision-making processes and representing causal relationships. Their capacity to handle the inherent vagueness and uncertainty of real-world scenarios enables a more natural and flexible approach to problem-solving. Due to their intrinsic adaptability and learning capabilities derived from sub-symbolic AI, FCMs are particularly suited for applications demanding high levels of interpretability and explainability.

When it comes to increasing rice’s agronomic characteristics at the cellular and molecular level, biotechnological methods offer a more effective and rapid manner than conventional breeding techniques. In the current study, the in-vitro standardization and regeneration of the seeds of Oryza sativa L. was carried out by employing tissue culture techniques. The morphogenetic response of the seed and leaf explants cultivated on media comprising MS basal medium supplemented with a variety of hormones, including BAP, Kinetin, Zeatin, and IAA in different combinations, varied. Explants were taken from in vitro seedlings that were seven days old. The induction of callus and the capacity for leaf and seed explant proliferation were investigated. The organogenesis success rates of the two explants are varied. Zeatin (0.5 mg/l) and IAA (0.1 mg/l) supplements added to MS medium produced 100% callus induction and proliferation. Thus, a rapid and highly effective genetic transformation strategy that can be applied to achieve multiple goals, such as CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing, was developed.

The curved contour of the road creates blind spots which increase the risk of traffic accidents. Throughout 2019, there were 107,500 accident cases recorded in Indonesia. Therefore, efforts are needed to provide road infrastructure that supports driving safety, such as traffic signs to reduce the risk of accidents in blind spot areas. This research aims to design a smart safety light warning system that is integrated with solar-based street lighting. The design uses a design-based research approach referring to several established standards including Indonesia National Standard (SNI) 7931: 2008, SNI IEC 60529:2014, Regulation of the Minister of Transportation of the Republic of Indonesia Number PM 13 of 2014, Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) issued by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) of the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT), and Article 115 of Minister of Transportation Republic of Indonesia Regulation PM 27 of 2018. This study used Design-Based Research (DBR) as a research methodology. The result of this study is a prototype design and development of smart safety light warning system which can be optimized. Validation of the design and circuit is conducted using prototyping modeling 1:20 from the original dimensions to measure the function and performance of the circuit. The prototype is capable of turning on warning lights and siren notifications when detecting objects with a maximum distance of 350 cm as measured by the HC – SR04 sensor. Charging the stored solar panels via the accumulator allows the technology to continue working for 45 hours without charging. For power efficiency purposes, the technology is equipped with an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) sensor with a minimum limit of 341-lux which regulates the lighting. The development of these safety lights will increase driver awareness when passing through blind spot areas and have positive implications for reducing the number of accidents in Indonesia.

Uncertainty-informed selection of CMIP6 Earth system model subsets for use in multisectoral and impact models
Authors: Snyder Abigail , Prime Noah , Tebaldi Claudia , Dorheim Kalyn
Published: October 2024

Abstract. Earth system models (ESMs) and general circulation models (GCMs) are heavily used to provide inputs to sectoral impact and multisector dynamic models, which include representations of energy, water, land, economics, and their interactions. Therefore, representing the full range of model uncertainty, scenario uncertainty, and interannual variability that ensembles of these models capture is critical to the exploration of the future co-evolution of the integrated human–Earth system. The pre-eminent source of these ensembles has been the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP). With more modeling centers participating in each new CMIP phase, the size of the model archive is rapidly increasing, which can be intractable for impact modelers to effectively utilize due to computational constraints and the challenges of analyzing large datasets. In this work, we present a method to select a subset of the latest phase, CMIP6, featuring models for use as inputs to a sectoral impact or multisector dynamics models, while prioritizing preservation of the range of model uncertainty, scenario uncertainty, and interannual variability in the full CMIP6 ensemble results. This method is intended to help impact modelers select climate information from the CMIP archive efficiently for use in downstream models that require global coverage of climate information. This is particularly critical for large-ensemble experiments of multisector dynamic models that may be varying additional features beyond climate inputs in a factorial design, thus putting constraints on the number of climate simulations that can be used. We focus on temperature and precipitation outputs of CMIP6 models, as these are two of the most used variables among impact models, and many other key input variables for impacts are at least correlated with one or both of temperature and precipitation (e.g., relative humidity). Besides preserving the multi-model ensemble variance characteristics, we prioritize selecting CMIP6 models in the subset that preserve the very likely distribution of equilibrium climate sensitivity values as assessed by the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report. This approach could be applied to other output variables of climate models and, possibly when combined with emulators, offers a flexible framework for designing more efficient experiments on human-relevant climate impacts. It can also provide greater insight into the properties of existing CMIP6 models.

Establishing a Rapid, Real-Time Metabolic Assay in Patient-Derived Bladder Cancer Models to Test Response to Therapy
Authors:   , Calabrese Alivia R.
Published: October 2024

Bladder cancer is a highly complex disease and recurs post-treatment, leaving minimal treatment options for patients. Therefore, further understanding of this cancer is needed to personalise treatment for patients. One way of doing this is by figuring out how bladder cancer cells generate energy to survive and seeing this can be targeted. The Seahorse XFe platform was used to study how bladder cancer cell use energy in 2D and 3D models. We found that stopping glycolysis when combined with chemotherapy agents increased bladder cancer cell death suggesting that targeting metabolism may be a promising approach for treating bladder cancer.
The Impact of Accessible Pedagogies on the Classroom Experiences and Engagement of Students with Language and/or Attentional Difficulties
Authors:   , Tancredi Haley
Published: October 2024

Students with disabilities impacting language and information processing are present in all classrooms, but often do not receive adjustments, making them wholly reliant on the accessibility of classroom instruction. This mixed-methods study investigated the classroom experiences and engagement of 59 Year 10 students with language and/or attentional difficulties before and after selected English teachers participated in Accessible Pedagogies, a program of professional learning designed to enhance the accessibility of classroom teaching. Students of teachers who participated in Accessible Pedagogies reported increased focus, comprehension, and cognitive engagement. No change was observed in students whose teachers did not participate.
School Children's Exposure to Air Pollution
Authors:   , Pradhan Basant
Published: October 2024

This thesis aimed to advance the knowledge of personal exposure of school children to air pollution in urban microenvironments and the methods of its assessment. The novelty of this research lies in answering the important question of whether data from centrally located fixed-site monitoring stations can be adequately used in epidemiological studies. Furthermore, it quantifies PM2.5 (fine particulate matter) and carbon monoxide levels in important urban community centres, such as schools. The study is also the first to assess schoolchildren’s personal exposure to PM2.5 in urban microenvironments in Suva, Fiji.
El sexting no consentido en el ámbito escolar. Apreciación en la justicia constitucional ecuatoriana
Authors: Guerrero Carrera Jacqueline , Ripalda Taíz
Published: October 2024

Las diferentes formas de violencia de género digital, como el ciberacoso o la violación de la intimidad en entornos digitales, es un problema real, actual y de trascendencia, que constituye, además, un tema de derechos humanos de mujeres y niñas de gran complejidad y que requiere de atención urgente, así como de un abordaje responsable. También, es un tema poco comprendido, lo que conlleva a su invisibilización y a que no existan estrategias integrales para su prevención. Por esta razón, la reflexión sobre los peligros y transgresiones que sufren las mujeres en el ciberespacio debe contribuir al fortalecimiento del derecho a una vida libre de violencia de género, con base en la construcción de espacios virtuales inclusivos, libres, abiertos, seguros, resilientes e igualitarios. 
Este trabajo aborda la figura del sexting que afecta a niñas y adolescentes en los espacios escolares, a partir de la línea jurisprudencial establecida en la sentencia No. 456-20-JP/21, del 10 de noviembre de 2021, dictada por la Corte Constitucional del Ecuador. La decisión del máximo órgano de justicia constitucional ecuatoriano resulta relevante, por cuanto aborda el tema desde la perspectiva de los derechos de los niños y adolescentes y la justicia restaurativa, siendo los procedimientos sancionatorios de carácter subsidiarios y excepcionales. Esto supone una tensión con la idea de que la difusión no autorizada de imágenes íntimas es un delito y una forma de violencia que conlleva un grave perjuicio moral, psicológico y afectivo para la víctima. 
El estudio de los contenidos fácticos, jurídicos e interpretativos de la sentencia No. 456-20-JP/21 permite entender las diversas perspectivas de abordaje de un tema trascendente para los niños, niñas y adolescentes y las comunidades educativas, en una ´época en la que se ha agregado un factor de complejidad como es el uso de inteligencia artificial en casos de violencia sexual digital entre adolescentes.

The focus of this research is to analyze using literature studies on the strategies and policies of the Education Office in increasing public interest in entering public schools so that it is expected to have a positive impact so that the Education Office in the regions, especially areas that experience a decrease in the number of students and are constrained to increase students in the process of accepting new students. The method used in this study is the literature study method. The literature study method, also known as literature study, is a technique for collecting data and information by examining written sources such as scientific journals, reference books, encyclopedias, and other reliable sources either in written form or in digital formats that are relevant and related to the object being researched. Increasing public interest in attending public schools is a challenge that the Education Office must face as a government agency responsible for the implementation of education in the regions. Through a comprehensive strategy, including improving the quality of education, increasing access and equity in education, as well as improving the image and reputation of public schools, the Education Office can play a strategic role in encouraging community participation to take advantage of public education services. This effort will impact the quality of education and the development of superior and competitive human resources in the future. The Education Office's policy of increasing public interest in attending public schools is an important and strategic effort. Through various comprehensive policies, such as improving the quality of public schools, expanding access and capacity, as well as socialization and providing incentives, the Education Office can realize the goal of equitable distribution and improvement of the quality of education at all levels of society.
