Authors: Cruz Edineide Emília de Almeida , Santos Jonathan Diego Pereira , Silva Rosinei Pereira da
Published: August 2022

Na Docência no Ensino Superior, o esgotamento físico e mental, a depressão, o sentimento de incapacidade e pensamentos suicidas, pode ser sintomas da Síndrome de Burnout e constitui um problema cada vez mais emergente. Durante o contexto da pandemia da Covid-19, o ensino no Brasil passou por modificações significativas, repercutindo nas condições para o trabalho docente e no processo de ensino-aprendizagem. O objetivo deste artigo é realizar uma pesquisa a respeito desta doença durante o Coronavírus no Brasil, considerando sua prevalência, fatores de riscos para o seu desenvolvimento, as principais causas durante a pandemia, possíveis tratamentos e consequências para o professor e a instituição em que trabalha. conclui-se que as propostas de intervenção e controle ainda são subjetivas, o que é influenciado pelo fato de que a síndrome demorou ser reconhecida como uma doença e que a maioria das pesquisas busca ainda entender as proporções e características desta condição.
Sustained injection of miR-499-5p alters the gastrocnemius muscle metabolome in broiler chickens
Authors: Chen Chuwen , Li Jie , Li Zhixiong
Published: August 2022

Abstract. To investigate the effects of miR-499-5p on muscle
metabolism in broiler chickens, eight broiler chicks were assigned to the
control group and eight to the treatment group, and then we monitored the effects
using metabolomics. Chicks were fed basal diets without or with miR-499-5p
delivery. Gastrocnemius muscle samples were collected and analyzed by
ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry. The
results showed that miR-499-5p injection altered the concentrations of a
variety of metabolites in the gastrocnemius muscle. Thereby, a total of 46
metabolites were identified at higher (P<0.05) concentrations and
30 metabolites were identified at lower (P<0.05) concentrations in
the treatment group compared with the control group. These metabolites
were primarily involved with the regulation of lipid and carbohydrate
metabolism. Further metabolic pathway analysis revealed that fructose and
mannose metabolism, galactose metabolism, inositol phosphate metabolism, and
terpenoid backbone biosynthesis were the most critical pathway which may
partially interpret the effects of miR-499-5p. To our knowledge, this
research is the first report of metabolic signatures and related metabolic
pathways in the skeletal muscle for miR-499-5p injection and provides new
insight into the effect of miRNA on growth performance.
A pedo-geomorphological view on land use and its potential in the surroundings of the ancient Hispano-Roman city Munigua (Seville, SW Spain)

Published: August 2022

Abstract. This study investigates the surroundings of Munigua (municipium Flavium Muniguense), a small Roman town in the ancient province of Hispania Baetica (SW Spain). The city's economy was based primarily on copper and iron mining, which brought financial prosperity to its citizens. Local production of agricultural goods is thought to have been of little importance, as the regional soil conditions do not seem to be suitable for extensive agriculture. To evaluate the recent soil agro-potential and to find evidence for prehistoric and historic land use in the surroundings of Munigua, we applied a pedo-geomorphological approach based on the physico-chemical analysis of 14 representative soil and sediment exposures. Selected samples were analyzed for bulk chemistry, texture and phytoliths. The chronostratigraphy of the sequences was based on radiocarbon dating of charcoal samples. The site evaluation of the present-day soil agro-potential was carried out according to standard procedures and included evaluation of potential rootability, available water-storage capacity and nutrient budget within the uppermost 1 m. The results show that moderate to very good soil agro-potential prevails in the granitic and floodplain areas surrounding Munigua. Clearly, recent soil agro-potential in these areas allows the production of basic agricultural goods, and similar limited agricultural use should also have been possible in ancient times. In contrast, weak to very weak present-day soil agro-potential prevails in the metamorphic landscape due to the occurrence of shallow and sandy to stony soils. In addition, the study provides pedo-geomorphological evidence for prehistoric and historic land use in pre-Roman, Roman and post-Roman times. Catenary soil mapping in the vicinity of a Roman house complex reveals multi-layered colluvial deposits. They document phases of hillslope erosion mainly triggered by human land use between 4063 ± 82 and 3796 ± 76 cal BP, around 2601 ± 115 cal BP, and between 1424 ± 96 and 421 ± 88 cal BP. Moreover, geochemical and phytolith analyses of a Roman hortic Anthrosol indicate the local cultivation of agricultural products that contributed to the food supply of Munigua. Overall, the evidence of Roman agricultural use in the Munigua area indicates that the city's economy was by no means focused solely on mining. The production of basic agricultural products was also part of Munigua's economic portfolio. Our geoarcheological study thus supports the archeological concept of economically diversified Roman cities in the province of Baetica and in Hispania.
Recent changes in drainage route and outburst magnitude of Russell Glacier ice-dammed lake, West Greenland

Published: August 2022

Abstract. Glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) or ‘jökulhlaups’ from ice-dammed lakes are frequent in Greenland and can influence local ice dynamics, bedrock displacement, geomorphological changes and flooding hazards. Multidecadal time series of lake drainage dates, drainage volumes and flood outlets are rare but essential for understanding the impact on and interaction with the surroundings, identifying drainage mechanisms, and for mitigating downstream flood effects. In this study, we use ultra-high-resolution structure-from-motion (SfM) digital elevation models (DEM) and orthophotos from unmanned aerial vehicle field surveys in combination with optical satellite imagery to reconstruct robust lake volume changes associated with 14 GLOFs between 2007 and 2021 at Russell Glacier, West Greenland. This makes it, one of the most comprehensive and longest records of ice-dammed lake drainages in Greenland. We find a mean difference of 10 % between the lake drainage volumes compared with estimates derived from a gauged hydrograph 27 km downstream. Due to ice dam thinning, the potential maximum drainage volume in 2021 is c. 60 % smaller than that estimated to have drained in 2007. Our time series reveals variations in the drainage dates ranging from late May to mid-September and moreover that drained volumes range between 0.9–37.7 M m3. We attribute these fluctuations between short periods of relatively high and low drainage volumes to a weakening of the ice dam and an incomplete sealing of the englacial tunnel following the large GLOFs. The syphoning drainage mechanism is triggered by a reduction in englacial meltwater, likely driven by late seasonal drainages and sudden temperature reductions, as well as annual variations in the glacial drainage system. Furthermore, we provide geomorphological evidence of an additional drainage route first observed following the 2021 GLOF with a sub- or englacial and supraglacial water flow across the ice margin. It seems probable that the new drainage route will become dominant in the future which will drive changes in the downstream geomorphology and raise the risk of flooding-related hazards as the existing buffering outlet lakes will be bypassed.

Innovation and Resilience: Post-Disaster Architecture in Fourth-Century Delphi
Authors: Vanden Broeck-Parant Jean
Published: August 2022

In the 370s BC, Delphi was struck by a natural disaster. The temple of Apollo itself was severely damaged and needed to be rebuilt almost entirely. A few years later, the Third Sacred War (356-346 BC) interrupted the reconstruction. These two events must have been traumatic, yet the reconstruction of the temple of Apollo started relatively quickly after the catastrophe of the 370s and resumed swiftly after the end of the war. In addition to the temple of Apollo, other monuments were erected in the aftermath of these events. This paper focuses on the temple of Apollo, the Treasury of the Thebans and the so-called Limestone Temple and offers an interpretation of their architectural features in light of the distressing events that preceded them, using the concepts of anchoring innovation and conspicuous consumption. Resilience, it is argued, is not only evident in the vast funding scheme for reconstructing the temple of Apollo, but also in the design and construction of the monuments erected during that period.
L’influenza “spagnola” e la Prima guerra mondiale: il caso italiano
Authors: Cutolo Francesco
Published: August 2022

The “Spanish” influenza pandemic appeared in three waves between 1918 and 1920, reaching its peak of lethality in autumn '18, when the Great War was entering its final stages. The conflict - characterised by general impoverishment, large movements of people and poor hygienic conditions - facilitated the rapid spread of the disease across the globe. However, the war mainly conditioned the management of the health emergency, which was subordinated to the needs of war. To ensure the functioning of the production industry, mild quarantine measures were applied. Medical and health intervention was concentrated on the army, to the detriment of civilians. States, through censorship and the involvement of patriotic public opinion, concealed the seriousness of the emergency from the population. In the post-war period, the “Spanish flu” dropped out of political debate and public memory: only in correspondence of the Covid-19 health emergency, the 1918-20 pandemic was rediscovered.
Digital cooperation on Facebook and Twitter and financial impact on political crowdfunding campaigns
Authors: González-Cacheda Bruno , Cancela Outeda Celso
Published: August 2022

Although political crowdfunding has been a growing digital tool for resource mobilisation over the last decade, there has been little academic analysis on this topic. To fill this gap, we analysed the impact of digital cooperation materialised through Facebook and Twitter on the financial results and number of individual donations in more than 200 campaigns. Statistical tests show a positive association between the number of endorsements for the dissemination of a campaign message received on Facebook and Twitter from public figures and social and political actors such as associations, trade unions and political parties and the financial results and number of individual donations obtained. In conclusion, we found that digital cooperation improves financial results and allows political crowdfunding campaigners to mitigate the limitations of Facebook and Twitter and to expand their message among new audiences characterised by high social and political engagement.

Published: August 2022

Background: Poverty and malnutrition are associated with the risk of developing tuberculosis (TB). Nutritional reintegration with anti-TB therapy may improve treatment success rate. Aim: To investigate the nutritional status of low-income pulmonary TB patients in relation to the different anti-TB treatment phases. Methods: Forty five pulmonary TB patients and 40 controls aged 19-54 years, receiving treatment at Infectious Disease Hospital, Calabar, Nigeria, between September 2018 and July 2019 were studied. Serum total protein, albumin, iron and vitamin A were determined by colorimetric and HPLC methods respectively. Height and weight were measured and BMI computed, and data analysed using Student’s t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson’s correlation at P<0.05. Results: Among TB patients, 66.7%, 35.5%, and 22.22% were albumin, iron, and vitamin A deficient respectively. Total protein and globulins levels were higher while BMI, albumin, iron, and vitamin A were lower in the TB patients compared to the control (P=0.001). Albumin and iron levels of TB patients on continuation phase of anti-TB treatment (CPAT) were higher than those of TB-HIV coinfection on the same phase of treatment, TB patients on intensive phase of anti-TB treatment (IPAT) and controls (p<0.05). Comparing TB patients on CPAT and IPAT, also CPAT-HIV and IPAT-HIV patients, BMI and biochemical indices studied were not significantly different (P>0.05) respectively. Albumin and iron were significantly lower in CPAT-HIV compared with CPAT patients. Albumin correlated positively and significantly with iron (r=0.405, p=0.006) in TB patients. Conclusion: Tuberculosis is associated with decreased BMI, albumin, iron and vitamin A, and higher total protein, and globulin, suggesting that malnutrition may be associated with TB risk, poor treatment compliance and outcomes.

Authors: Jemimah Achieng Ocholla  , Shadrack Kinyua Inoti  , Gilbert Obati Obwoyere
Published: August 2022

Southwestern (SW) Mau is experiencing anthropogenic and natural disturbances; creating canopy gaps influencing microclimate in the forest. This study determined the influence of canopy gap size on three microsite conditions (soil temperature, soil moisture and light intensity) in SW. The study utilized Ecological Survey Research Design; plots of 500 m by 500 m were laid in disturbed and undisturbed sites of Itare, Maramara and Ndoinet blocks. In the sampled gaps within the plots in disturbed sites; soil moisture and temperature were measured using Kensizer soil tester (3-in-1 moisture/light/pH). Light intensity was measured using the Luxmeter (model HTC LX-104). In undisturbed sites, 500 m by 500 m plots were laid and 30 m by 20 m quadrats randomly nested 19 times within. Four measurements were taken for every Microsite condition per sub-plot. Data was analysed using R and Microsoft excel. Descriptive statistics were given and Kruskal-Wallis test employed to determine differences in microsite conditions among the gap sizes. Wilcoxon rank sum test was used to compare microsite conditions between disturbed and undisturbed sites. The study revealed that there was significant difference in soil temperature (Kruskal-Wallis chi-squared=19.00, df=3, p-value=0.0002732) in the gaps. Additionally, there was significant difference in light intensity between disturbed and undisturbed sites (W=555, p-value=0.01). Non-significant results of some microsite conditions were attributed to Piper capensis and Ribes spp. which invaded medium and large canopy openings. It was concluded that canopy cover influences microsite conditions in forests. Gaps should be allowed to occur naturally for biodiversity conservation.
Multiple subcutaneous metastasis from gastric cancer: A rare clinical presentation
Authors: Felcar Soares Alan , Menacho de Oliveira Rivadávio Antunes , Suemy Kiara Mariana , Martins Medeiros Eni
Published: August 2022

Introduction: The aim of this report is to describe a rare clinical situation in oncology, a gastric tumor with metastatic implants in subcutaneous tissue. This case demonstrates a rare scenario of gastric adenocarcinoma, with very few cases described in the literature, which evolved with subcutaneous metastases and whereby the role of systemic and even surgical treatment remains unclear.

Case Report: The case reported refers to a patient with an advanced gastric adenocarcinoma that evolved with multiple metastases implanted in the subcutaneous tissue, in addition to peritoneal, non-regional lymph nodes, and bone involvement, requiring first-line chemotherapy treatment.

Conclusion: This case manifests a rare presentation of advanced gastric neoplasm. The subcutaneous metastasis of internal malignancies is unusual, corresponding to less than 10% of neoplasms. The occurrence of skin or subcutaneous metastasis is still less usual in solid neoplasms, including gastric cancer, with a few cases reported in the literature. In this context, the role of diagnostic medicine is fundamental.
The Birth of an Illiberal Informational Autocracy in Europe: A Case Study on Hungary
Authors: Krekó Péter
Published: August 2022

While the institutional aspects of the illiberal shift in Hungary since 2010 have received notable scholarly attention, less analysis has dealt with the informational aspects of this de-democratization trend. In this article, I apply the concept of “informational autocracy” to Hungary to explain the way in which the Orbán government has been able to achieve the kind of hegemonic rule in that has also helped Orbán’s Fidesz party win their fourth straight election. The article briefly explains how the Hungarian media infrastructure (the “hardware”), was built up, and what are the dominant narratives⁠—especially the conspiracy theories⁠—that the regime is propagating (the “software”). The efficiency of Orbán’s informational autocracy in shaping public opinion is explained through specific cases in which the government could easily shore up its popularity by manipulating information, such as during the pandemic and after the start of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The article argues that Hungarian informational autocracy combines strategies and techniques that are imported from Western liberal democracies—with plenty of inspiration coming from the recent example of the United States, and with narratives and conspiracy theories that are imported from Eastern autocracies.
Přemysl Pitter (1895 – 1976) – European Humanist And Child Rescuer

Published: August 2022

The Czechs have given the world many important personalities, including pedagogues. In addition to the well-known Jan Amos Komenský (1592 – 1670), we can also name Gustav Adolf Lindner (1828 – 1887). But for a long time another important pedagogue personality of the 20th century, Přemysl Pitter, remained unknown to the world. In today’s world of intolerance it’s worthwhile to pay attention to the activities of a man who cherished the values by which he lived his life: “Without love, without human compassion with one another, nothing will stand” (Pitter 1974). These are the words of the humanist Přemysl Pitter, a Czech Protestant-oriented thinker, educator, writer, publicist, radical pacifist, and social worker. He founded the famous Prague educational institute “Milíč Houseˮ during the Second World War, and despite strict prohibitions, he visited and supplied the Jews during that time. After the war, he applied for confiscated castles around Prague, where he took care of impoverished German, Jewish, Polish, Czech, and other children. There was no word of him for many years. But why was his birth declared a UNESCO anniversary? Why did he receive one of the highest state awards of the Czech Republic from President Václav Havel? This text addresses such questions.
Communication Competence of Teachers in Contemporary Educational-Pedagogical Work
Authors:   University Business Academy in Novi Sad, Miletic Mirko , Djordjevic Marko ,   University of Kragujevac
Published: August 2022

In this paper, communication competence is seen as one of the most important skills in modern educational-pedagogical work. It is not about the absolute disposition of man, but about a set of variables that can be improved by learning to the level necessary for the realization of a certain social role. These are two groups of individually determined variables / potencies through which the degree of communication competence of an individual is articulated: cognitive and interactive. Pedagogical communication is most effective if it is realized with professional and communicatively competent teachers, individualized teaching in direct and / or indirect interpersonal communication and encoding of communicative messages, whose reception in pedagogical terms, ie. in terms of cognitive effects and value consequences, will be unambiguous.

The current regulations impose the need of identification of the components of school readiness. Currently, these competences are defined in the frame of educational directions. This approach does not allow highlighting a clear model of school readiness. In this respect the main goal of the current paper is to define the most functional model of school readiness. This is the basis for preparation for school and diagnostics. The chosen approach takes in consideration the requirements of the school and the difficulties that young students face. The model includes two main directions: physical and psychical readiness. Phsychical readiness in turn has tree aspects: intellectual, socio-personal and emotional-volitional readiness.

Discos que asustan a los periodistas: música de carrilera y modernidad campesina en Colombia a mediados del siglo XX
Authors: Guingue-Valencia Lucas Mateo , Grisales Betancur Daniel
Published: August 2022

A partir de un trabajo de archivo exhaustivo, este artículo contribuye a la historia cultural de la emergencia de la llamada música de carrilera o carrileruda en la esfera pública de Colombia de la década de 1950. El fenómeno se contextualiza en dos tipos de discurso que se registran de forma simultánea en las fuentes periodísticas. Por un lado, es conspicua la discusión sobre el peligro de extinción de la música folklórica: en particular la constelación de géneros asociados al bambuco, música tradicional andina a la que se le ha atribuido el rol de representar a la nación. Por otro lado, las mismas fuentes evidencian una marcada preocupación por combatir el ruido, entendido como sonido no deseado y como una entidad tecnológica, estética y moral. En la categoría entran tanto el alto nivel de sonido de altoparlantes, radios, tocadiscos y traganíqueles, como el sonido de distintos tipos de música publicada por las disqueras locales e internacionales, entre ellas la música carrileruda: música de gran éxito comercial, pero considerada de la más baja calidad artística; canciones clasificadas bajo distintos géneros (pasillo, vals, ranchera, corrido, tango, porro, merengue y parranda, entre otros); discos asociados a traganíqueles en cantinas y cafés de ciudades y veredas rurales, y a una audiencia de arrabal, de origen campesino. Nuestro análisis se centra en los contrastes entre los dos tipos de discurso.
Entre flujos y migraciones en el Atlántico Negro: la configuración musical de la rumba y el candombe de Buenos Aires
Authors: Ferreira Makl Luis
Published: August 2022

El presente artículo presenta algunos resultados de nuestro proyecto de investigación musicológica sobre las afinidades y conectividades entre la música afroargentina de Buenos Aires y la música afrocubana, producidas por flujos migratorios y procesos transculturales. El trabajo tiene un sentido teórico y metodológico específico que apunta a visibilizar lagunas analíticas existentes respecto a materiales musicales y etnográficos relevados en otras investigaciones, así como la trayectoria de agentes musicales que no han sido suficientemente considerados hasta el momento. Se realizará, en primer lugar, un análisis musicológico comparativo, basado en fuentes secundarias, como manuales musicales y grabaciones fonográficas locales de otros investigadores. En segundo lugar, se trazará la trayectoria de un músico afrocubano, Isaac Tantalora, radicado en Buenos Aires desde fines de la década de 1920, indagando su relevancia para la comunidad afroargentina en esta ciudad y sus prácticas musicales. Se señalarán resemantizaciones y resimbolizaciones que revelan la importancia que tiene para el estudio de la música popular prestar atención a las migraciones, los flujos culturales y las afinidades entre músicos y sus prácticas. Finalmente, el caso estudiado permite sugerir aspectos de unidad y diversificación musical en el llamado Atlántico Negro, en una modalidad de cosmopolitismo por superposición de diferentes diásporas afrodescendientes.
Pensamiento maternal, afectos y emociones en la canción “Parto” (2015) del dúo Barone-González
Authors: Suppicich Fernanda
Published: August 2022

“Parto” es un tango compuesto e interpretado por el dúo que integran Patricia Barone y Javier González, y está incluido en su disco Complicidad (2015)1. A partir de esta canción me propongo reflexionar, desde una perspectiva feminista, sobre cómo se expone musicalmente el concepto de maternidad en el tango de este siglo. Partiendo del estudio de teorías feministas, indago primero en la historia del dúo, su conformación, y en las composiciones que tienen temáticas afines a “Parto”, en articulación con los movimientos de derechos humanos. En un segundo momento, analizo la maternidad en este tango en relación al momento político y social en el que se estrena, el cual se cruza con las acciones feministas de reclamo por la legalización del aborto y la no violencia por razones de género. En este sentido, estudio cómo el arte dialoga con la formación de afectos, emociones y subjetividades colectivas y en qué medida el objeto de estudio se inscribe, a partir de un género musical como el tango, históricamente heteronormado y androcéntrico, en el movimiento feminista y en el movimiento de derechos humanos como un acto político.

Infertility is defined as a condition in which a woman cannot conceive after 12 months of a normal sexual relationship without the use of contraception. The study aimed to evaluate hypothyroidism prevalence, thyroid and pituitary gland hormones assessment in infertile women's serum, and their correlation in Basra, Iraq. The research was conducted at Ibn-Gzouan Hospital for Obstetrics and Gynecology in Basra, southern Iraq, between October 2021 and March 2022. In our research, 28 infertile women with hypothyroidism, 30 infertile women without hypothyroidism, and 30 fertile women aged 18 to 45 were studied. Our research found that infertile hypothyroid women had greater TSH and PRL levels than fertile women, but lower T3 and T4 levels. Without hypothyroidism, infertile women exhibited greater PRL, cortisol, and LH levels than fertile women, but lower IGF-1 levels. T4 and T3 levels (r=0.640), LH, and LH/FSH ratio(r=0.536) correlated positively in hypothyroid infertile women. TSH and T4 levels (r = -0.514) and FSH and LH/FSH ratio (r =-0.481) correlated negatively. T4 and T3 levels, LH, and LH/FSH were positively correlated (r = 0.666) in infertile women without hypothyroidism. TSH was negatively correlated with T4 (r = -0.547) and T3 (r = -0.580).

Introduction: With reference to WHO, about 30% of maternal deaths were due to postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) which is a major complication in cesarean delivery. It has become imperative to reduce the amount of blood loss during and after LSCS-lower segment cesarean section in order to decrease the rate of maternal morbidity and mortality that occur as a result of bleeding. Prior administration of Tranexamic acid has great potential to prevent excessive loss of blood. Hence, this study was an attempt to assess the effectiveness of Tranexamic acid in reducing blood loss in LSCS. Materials & Methods: This is a prospective study carried out on 50 human subjects who were classified into two separate groups (Groups A and B respectively). Group A subjects (n=25) were considered the control group who were administered with distilled water before the surgery and group B subjects (n=25) were considered to be the test group who were administered with 1g of Tranexamic acid. During the surgery, bleeding occurred and the blood was collected and measured between the periods of placental delivery until the end of lower segment caesarean section and for a period of two hours postpartum.
Polymorphism of 3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase-1 in patients with prostate cancer in middle Euphrates of Iraq

Androgens play critical roles in prostate carcinogenesis as well as prostate cancer progression. Androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT), which reduces testosterone production and inhibits androgen action in prostate cancer cells, has been the criterion standard therapy for metastatic prostate cancer (1). Although initially most prostate cancers respond well to ADT, most patients eventually progress to castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), which is mainly thought to be because androgen receptor reactivation is induced by several mechanisms. One of those mechanisms have been identified to be intratumoral androgen synthesis mostly from adrenal precursor steroids and at least in part due to de novo synthesis from cholesterol which is supported by increased expression of several genes encoding steroidogenic enzymes including HSD3B, HSD17B, and SRD5A in CRPC. Among them, HSD3B1 gene encodes 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-1, which is mainly expressed in peripheral tissues including the prostate (another isoform, 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-2 was mainly expressed in adrenal gland and gonad in human) and is a rate-limiting enzyme required for all pathways of dihydrotestosterone synthesis. Genetic polymorphism in HSD3B1 encoding 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-1 has been shown to be associated with oncological outcome for prostate cancer. This study to investigate the significance of missense polymorphism in HSD3B1 gene (rs1047303) among men with prostate cancer.

The districts of the countryside of the city center of Hit have a distinct location about the community of Hit, as their site is close to the Euphrates River and the natural conditions in them are suitable for the establishment of agriculture. The study area faces a human problem, which is the increase in population growth, as the population reached 1997 (10,956 people). Still, it increased to reach 2020 (20165 people)—followed by improving the economic situation. The increase in population leads to a rise in the demand for land for housing and other human services. In the study and evaluation of the reality of rural planning in the rural districts in the city center of Hit, it was found suffering from a lack and insufficiency of community services due to unplanned settlements led to an increase in the area of ​​residential use at the expense of the location of ​​other benefits represented by (health, educational, and recreational use).
