Considered the creator of calligraphy, Wang Xizhi is also one of the famous poets of China. He is the author of one of the fabulous literary works – “Preface to the Poems Collected from the Orchid Pavilion”. During the Shangsi Festival, he gathered famous poets at the Orchid Pavilion near Shaoxing to create poetry and enjoy the environment. They created 37 poems, and the “saint of calligraphy” – Wang Xizhi, wrote the prologue to the poems, which is still considered one of the masterpieces of Chinese calligraphy. The work made such a strong impression that Emperor Taizong wanted to be buried with it in the Zhaolin Mausoleum. The work “Preface to the Poems Collected from the Orchid Pavilion” is an embodiment of the connection between literature and calligraphy.
THE FIGHT AGAINST POVERTY IN CHINA – SITUATION, CHALLENGES AND PROSPECTS
Authors: Peneva Teodora
Published: September 2024

In 2021, China eradicated extreme poverty (US$ 1.90 per person per day) and set a new poverty target line of $ 2.15 per day per person, adopted in the medium term, and $ 6.8 in the long term. This corresponds the World Bank’ change in statistics from September 2022, which imposed a line of $ 2.15 for all countries in the world. After the adoption of a new poverty target line, China began to work with new groups outside the rural areas, which also includes the migrant working poor in small towns and on the outskirts of large cities. Poverty-tackling tools are also beginning to evolve from chronic poverty to a more diverse toolkit that covers a wider range of risks. This article includes an analysis of policies, challenges and prospects in the fight against poverty in China.
El Tribunal Internacional de Justicia y los derechos humanos
Authors: Andrés Sáenz de Santa María María Paz
Published: September 2024

Aunque no es un tribunal específico de derechos humanos, son ya varios los asuntos relacionados con la protección de los derechos humanos que se han sometido al Tribunal Internacional de Justicia. En ellos, el tribunal ha hecho interesantes aportaciones tanto desde el punto de vista procesal como desde el sustantivo. En la actualidad, el recurso al Tribunal Internacional de Justicia es un elemento de la litigación estratégica de derechos humanos, dentro de la cual puede jugar un papel positivo en casos de conflictos armados en los que se cometan vulneraciones masivas. También puede desempeñar este papel en los casos de crímenes internacionales, como el genocidio. Esta tendencia, junto a las opiniones consultivas recientemente solicitadas por la Asamblea General de las Naciones Unidas, permite augurar futuras contribuciones que redundarán en beneficio de los derechos humanos.

Authors: IZETI Ajshenur
Published: September 2024

Autism is a neurobiological disorder characterized by difficulties in communication, social interaction and repetitive behaviors and a limited range of interests. In this paper we will try to present the possible methods and techniques of communication with children with developmental disabilities, especially focusing on children with autism and on augmentative and alternative communication in relation to children with autism. The general purpose of the paper is the analysis and description of the positive and negative sides of communication and the representation of adequate methods of communication with autistic children. In this study, two samples from the "Alja" Kindergarten in Tetovo, which we have mentioned here as Sample x and Sample y, have been selected, and augmentative and alternative communication has been applied to them, following the changes and the success of the techniques. Methods such as observation, communication and document analysis were used in data collection. In the case of our study, the use of these techniques has been shown to be successful and we can conclude that they are useful for individuals with communication limitations and that their use should be increased. In our work with samples of children based on AAC techniques, they have shown that they are adequate and practical and can be applied in all environments, therefore we think that experts in the field of special education and communication technologies should work in cooperation to expand the use of assistive technologies in the education of children with limited communication.

Authors: POPOVA–KOSKAROVA Rozalina , KAMCEVSKA Biljana
Published: September 2024

The paper deals with the most important aspects of educational film and its application in teaching process. There is no doubt that educational film is a powerful audiovisual tool which helps the educational content to be learned in a much different and more interesting way than usual. The application of film can be successful in all levels of education as well as suitable for all subjects. The application of the film makes teaching much more interesting and students are more motivated to acquire functional knowledge. From this reason, we intended to examine teacher`s opinion about meaning and application of film in educational process. The subject of our research is meaning and application of film. The purpose of our research is to examine the opinions of teachers regarding application of film or video for educational purposes. Several tasks arise from the goal: For example: To examine teachers’ attitude how often they use a film or parts of film in teaching process. Тhe most essential question regarding film, is does the film contribute to higher quality teaching and acquisition of functional knowledge? The sample consists of 171 teachers from several primary schools in Skopje, Kavadarci and Tetovo. In our research we used survey, as well as a questionnaire with 10 closed ended questions. In the data processing we used the standard statistical package SPSS.
TEACHERS' INSTRUCTIONS AS A FACTOR FOR SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF HOMEWORK
Authors: XHAMBAZI Gzim
Published: September 2024

Throughout the school practices, homework has always presented an integral part of the lesson. Usually at the beginning of a lesson, teachers check and clarify the unclear homework, while at the end of the lesson they assign the homework related to the finished lesson. The goals of homework are many and diverse, they help to better memorise the newly acquired material, reinforce, and expand the acquired knowledge and skills. The purpose of this paper is to find out the relationship between the period when teachers give instructions related to the completion of the homework and the time necessary to clarify uncompleted, respectively unclear, homework. Our assumption was that: There is a significant difference between the time spent for homework instructions and the successful completion of the homework. This research included thirty-six primary education teachers. The research showed that teachers devote little time to the instructions when assigning homework (64% of respondents spend less than 10 minutes) and as a result students have uncertainty in completing them (61% of respondents spend more than 10 minutes) to clarify unclear tasks to students). The statistical significance in the comparison of this pair of variables was p=.010, which proves the set hypothesis. Based on the results of the research, we conclude that if teachers were to give more instructions related the tasks that should be completed by students at home, then the tasks/homework would be completed with a greater success.

Authors: KAMBERI Bajram , KAMBERI Drenusha
Published: September 2024

Background: Neurological disability, also known as a neurological disorder, is simply described as an impairment in a person's nervous system that affects their bodily or mental functions. Aim: To investigate stroke-related disability in hospitalized patients during the 13-month period (January 2022 to January 2023). Methods: The present study was a descriptive as well as a comparative study. Target parameters were collected from medical documentation that was generated during patient treatment. Was compared the baseline frequency of neurological disability expressed as neurological deficit associated with acute stroke in hospitalized patients. Results: For the specified period, a total of 205 patients, as acute stroke cases were diagnosed, 104 (50.73%) males and 101 (49.27%) women. Acute ischemic stroke was the first most common cause of stroke, account for 81.95% of hospital admission for stroke, while acute hemorrhagic stroke was the second most common cause of stroke, account for 18.05%. The most frequent neurological deficit was left-sided hemiplegia 59/205 (28.78%), right-sided hemiparesis in the second order 52/205 (25.36%) and, in third order was right-sided hemiplegia 44/205 (21.46%). The three neurological deficits with the lowest frequency were:sensory-motor dysphasia 38/205 (18.54%), left-sided hemiparesis 35/205 (17.07%) and sensory-motor aphasia in 24/205 (11.71%) of cases. Conclusion: Regarding the baseline frequency of neurological deficit, the medical model of disability was prevalent. We think there is a need for a comprehensive format for neurological disabilities assessment, which will also include the three main components of the definition of disability from WHO (2001): impairments, activity limitations and participation limitations.

Ecological factors driving micro-geographic variation in tick-borne disease risk
Authors:   , Van Gestel Mats
Published: September 2024

Studies on density and pathogen prevalence of Ixodes ricinus indicate that vegetation and local host community drive most of the variation between green spaces. Contrarily, micro-geographic variation is understudied, although its understanding could reduce disease risk. Here, we studied the density of infectious nymphal Ixodes sp. (“DIN”), density of questing nymphs and nymphal infection prevalence near recreational forest infrastructure. Drag sampling within forest stands and at adjacent benches and trails was combined with vegetation surveys, camera trapping of hosts and pathogen (a.o. Borrelia burgdorferi) screening of ticks. DIN was highest in forest interior and at trails enclosed by forest. Lower disease hazard was observed at benches and trails at forest edges. This can be attributed to vegetation characteristics and the habitat use of tick hosts (deer, rodents and songbirds). Tick density is the main driver of DIN at micro-geographic scale, for which a positive association with vegetation cover in understorey and canopy was observed, as were positive trends for local rodent and songbird abundance. The infection prevalence of different pathogens was affected by different drivers. Lower B. burgdorferi s.l. prevalence in the interior of forest stands, points towards higher density of uninfected hosts there. Our findings support amplification and inhibition mechanisms within forest stands and highlight that the effect of established drivers of DIN may differ based on the considered spatial scale. To further understanding of the role microclimate plays with regards to disease risk, I. ricinus were deployed within an existing experimental setup studying the response of understorey vegetation to experimental heating and lighting. Biomass estimates were higher in warmed plots, with a trend towards higher survival in the same plots, possibly due to increased microclimate buffering. These results, when placed in the light of chapters 2 and 3 as well as recent literature, imply that canopy and shrub layer vegetation effect microclimate buffering to a larger degree, and therefore likely tick survival as well. An experiment investigating detachment behaviour of larval I. ricinus from wood mice is discussed, where differing detachment probabilities between a dry, bare environment versus a moisturized, enriched environment. Results suggest that environmental factors can alter the detachment probability of I. ricinus larvae from Apodemus sylvaticus. We also apply our findings to a forest management context, quantifying the potential risk reduction by the available management efforts based on the data from the field studies and experiments, and supplement this with knowledge from literature.

La alimentación es fundamental para la vida y el desarrollo de la población a nivel mundial, por lo que la seguridad alimentaria es un derecho humano básico. La cantidad de brotes de enfermedades transmitidas por alimentos asociados con productos frescos ha ido en aumento, por lo que es necesario buscar estrategias que aseguren que los alimentos que consumimos se encuentran libre de patógenos. Dado lo anterior, el objetivo del presente estudio fue la obtención de extractos de plantas de Moringa oleifera y Artemisia ludoviciana y evaluar la capacidad antimicrobiana in vitro de dichos extractos contra E. coli. Para lo cual, se obtuvo un aislado de E. coli a partir de carne molida de res, así como extractos vegetales de M. oleifera y A. ludoviciana utilizando alcohol etílico 96°, a dichos extractos se les evaluó la capacidad antimicrobiana hacia E. coli, a través de la medición de los halos de inhibición. A partir de las 24 h post inoculación fue posible observar la presencia de inhibición del crecimiento de la bacteria, especialmente con el extracto de la semilla de M. oleifera al presentar un diámetro de inhibición mayor a comparación de los demás extractos, teniendo un promedio de 13.5 mm, seguido de la hoja de A. ludoviciana 8.8 mm y la hoja de M. oleifera con un promedio de 7.8 mm. Por lo que, dichos resultados contribuyen a respaldar la capacidad antimicrobiana de estas plantas, además de sugerir la elaboración de posibles productos antimicrobianos que permitan ampliar su aplicación y comercialización en el manejo y prevención de enfermedades causadas por patógenos.

Published: September 2024

El Metabolismo urbano es un enfoque de análisis de ciudades que surge de la comparaciónentre los procesos de un cuerpo vivo y los de una ciudad; el argumento central es que una ciudad consume recursos y al mismo tiempo produce emisiones y vertidos; ladiferencia radica en que un cuerpo vivo consume alimentos para sostener su desarrollo y desecha lo que no necesita, mientras que las ciudades consumen mucho más de lo que necesitan y producen residuos que la naturaleza no puede procesar. El objetivo de este trabajo fue identificar el proceso metabólico del Asentamiento Irregular Mártires Antorchistas de la ciudad de Chetumal, Quintana Roo, através de sus insumos (entradas), consumo (proceso) y deshechos (salidas). Lainvestigación es exploratoria y empleó técnicas cualitativas en la recolección de datos en un muestreo dirigido. Los resultados muestran que Mártires Antorchistas tiene un metabolismo urbano que genera impactos al medio ambiente relacionados principalmente con las prácticas que realizan ante la falta de sistemas formales de colecta y tratamiento de los desechos, evidenciando una desigualdad de condiciones que no contribuyen a un ambiente limpio y una ciudad sustentable para todos sus habitantes.

Letramento social nas atividades de leitura e interpretação de textos do caderno aprender+
Authors: Da Silva Silvio Ribeiro , Lopes Benassi Fabiana
Published: September 2024

O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a (não) ocorrência da prática de letramento social nas atividades de leitura e interpretação de textos escritos apresentados pelo ‘Caderno de Atividades Aprender+ Língua Portuguesa’ do Ensino Fundamental – Anos Finais, bem como verificar o trabalho realizado com novos letramentos da mídia/Internet. O estudo é justificável pelo fato de sabermos que a escola é considerada a maior agência de letramento, além de ter como uma de suas funções desenvolver no aluno capacidades de leitura e escrita que possam ir além do simples ato de codificar e decodificar uma mensagem. Por trabalhar com uma amplitude de gêneros com finalidade escolar, esse tipo de letramento acaba sendo supervalorizado, sobrepondo-se ao letramento social, que é pouco ou nada trabalhado em sala. A geração e análise dos dados teve como base a metodologia interpretativista, ancorada nos princípios da Linguística Aplicada. Os dados revelaram pouca variabilidade dos letramentos sociais e de mídia/internet em comparação com outros letramentos. É relevante pontuar que os gêneros no material são abordados dentro de uma perspectiva mais formal, enfatizando o uso da linguagem, finalidade do gênero, forma composicional, aspectos de situação comunicativa e função social, favorecendo pouco a habilidade de lidar com os gêneros em uma situação de uso concreto, ficando distante do conhecimento de usar a letra em determinada situação social, afastando o aluno do desenvolvimento do letramento crítico e tornando-o um mero identificador e reprodutor de letramentos escolares.

Results: 66 active volunteer military personnel participated in the study, the majority (65.2%) from the CBMPR and the rest (34.8%) from the PMPR, the vast majority male (92.4%), aged between 35 and 44 years old (54.5%), and divided between soldier (48.5%), lieutenant (16.7%), corporal and sergeant (12.1%), captain (6.1%), major (3% ) and warrant officer (1.5%). The majority (40.9%) already have 11 to 20 years of effective service. Discussion: According to the data, it was possible to identify a mix of satisfaction and dissatisfaction among the troops in relation to the current TAF model applied and, also, that the main trends are related to the lack of correlation between the test exercises and everyday exercises. operational performance of the firefighters and police officers interviewed and the presence of exercises with high harmful potential, such as the shuttle run. Final Considerations: Through the study it was possible to verify that in a large part of the studied population there was a clear need to review and adapt the current Physical Fitness Test model. The main areas of concern include the relevance and safety of the tests administered, the frequency, method of administration and the integration of physical activities into the military's routine.

Adjuvant Intravesical Immunotherapy
Authors: Demirtas Bekir , Cakici Mehmet Caglar
Published: September 2024

Adjuvant intravesical immunotherapy is recognized as an effective treatment option for various urological cancer types. It plays a significant role in reducing the risk of recurrence, particularly in high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer cases. This treatment method is commonly utilized to diminish tumor residues following transurethral resection and prevent disease progression. Among the most frequently employed agents are BCG (Bacillus Calmette-Guérin) and interferon. Adjuvant intravesical immunotherapy is typically administered alongside or following other treatment modalities to minimize local and systemic side effects. Due to its low invasiveness and relatively high efficacy, this treatment holds a crucial place in the management of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer.
Novel Therapies in High-Risk Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer
Authors: Sendogan Furkan , Culpan Meftun
Published: September 2024

The management of high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer(NMIBC) presents a significant challenge to many physicians, due to the ability of the disease to resist intravesical BCG therapy and the substantial rate of progression to the muscle-invasive bladder cancer. In the current literature, the alternative treatment modality for patients with BCG-unresponsive bladder cancer is radical cystectomy, which has a significant impact on the quality of life. In addition, the global shortage of BCG, which has become more apparent in recent years, has increased the necessity for new treatments. In this book chapter, we discussed new and current treatment modalities in high-risk NMIBC.

Published: September 2024

This section concerns the follow-up of patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Non-muscle invasive bladder cancer carries a high risk of recurrence and progression. Therefore, the follow-up of these patients is of great importance. The most crucial step in the follow-up of patients is cystoscopy. This article describes the methods to be used in the follow-up of patients, including the recommendations of the latest guidelines.
Techniques in Endoscopic Resection of Bladder Cancer
Authors: Arikan Ozgur
Published: September 2024

In this seciton we reviewed transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TURBT) which is a common procedure to diagnose and treat bladder cancer. There are two main approaches: conventional TURBT with piecemeal resection and en bloc resection (ERBT). ERBT removes the entire tumor in one piece, potentially reducing recurrence rates and improving pathological assessment. Studies suggest ERBT may be safe and effective, with benefits like higher detrusor muscle inclusion and clear resection margins. However, larger tumor size can hinder its success. More research is needed to determine the best energy sources (monopolar, bipolar, laser) for ERBT.
Predicting Disease Recurrence and Progression

Published: September 2024

In this section, NMIBC constitutes the majority of bladder cancer cases, characterized by a favorable prognosis. Recurrence and progression rates vary widely, highlighting the chronic nature of NMIBC and the need for extensive follow-up and treatment sessions. Various prognostic factors influence recurrence and progression, including tumor characteristics and patient demographics. Risk stratification tools like the EORTC and CUETO calculators aid in predicting probabilities at different time points, although current models have limitations. Factors like smoking and genetic alterations contribute to recurrence and progression risk. However, there’s a call for more efficient risk stratification tools incorporating new biomarkers and treatment strategies to enhance patient management.
Peace Education Vs War: Critical Analysis
Authors: Sheesh Kazi Sameeo
Published: September 2024

Peace educators have tried to raise awareness against the mass devastation of arms war by calling for world patriotism and advocating for reconciliation through dialogue. The world has, however, experienced the worst possible forms of war, fanatical cases of nationalism and fundamentalism, the use of the most advanced technology of fighting, including the dreaded nuclear bomb. Over time, not only has the longbow been replaced by the musket, rifles, machine guns, missiles and drones etc., but this change in the brute machinations of war was also paralleled by the conventional concepts of ‘old wars’ being replaced by those of ‘new wars’. Simultaneously, different strands of peace education conceptually or theoretically address the way to counter various causes of war. This book has accomplished a commendable work at explaining the theories of both war and peace education while also linked them together. Hence, it shows how peace education attempts to set up a counter discourse. The use of tables makes this encounter clear.

Authors: Aboelmaged M.G. , Elamin A. M.
Published: September 2024

This research constitutes an empirical study of influencing factors, facilitators, and inhibitors to the choice of teleworking mode in the UAE context. The research reveals that gender, marital status, nationality, residence location, and work profession are relevant, whereas educational level, Internet use, number of children, age, and years of experience are irrelevant influencing factors for the choice of teleworking mode. Furthermore, the research identifies six distinct facilitators and seven distinct inhibitors. The perceived importance of most identified facilitators and inhibitors to the choice of teleworking mode in the UAE context are found almost similar among the respondents. An exception, however, is made to the association between choice of teleworking mode and individual freedom, travel overload, cost reduction, and union resistance. The study outlines the limitations of the present research and suggests some practical implications and recommendations for managers.
