Pioneering Sustainability Through Industry 5.0 With a Human-Centric Approach
Authors: Bayarcelik Ebru Beyza , Taşel Fulya
Published: February 2025

The first three industrial revolutions facilitated the transition from manual production to automation, while Industry 4.0 has supported the concept of smart manufacturing aimed at flexible and efficient production of goods. This transformation has been made possible through Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), enabling real-time communication and collaboration. However, this shift raises concerns about the dehumanization of work, as modern systems heavily rely on mechanization and data-driven processes. This has driven Industry 5.0, which aims to harmonize human skills with intelligent systems by blending the efficiency of automation with human cognitive abilities to create a more balanced and flexible industrial paradigm. In this book chapter, a bibliometric analysis of studies conducted from the inception of Industry 5.0 in 2019 to the present has been performed, and the topic has been discussed in depth. It also examines emerging trends, highlights dominant research areas, explores methodological frameworks, and summarizes existing findings on the topic.

Authors: Aksa Furqan I. , Ashar Muhammad , Siswanto Heni W. , Malem Zaidan Z.
Published: February 2025

The series of evacuation drills implemented for flood disasters were mostly through monotonous traditional pedagogical methods. The application of these methods was observed to be ineffective because of the inability to realistically represent the actual dangers and have a significant impact on behavioural changes. Therefore, this research aimed to develop and test the effectiveness of Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) Flood Evacuation to improve knowledge and self-efficacy regarding flood disasters. This was achieved through the adoption of a one-group pretest-posttest design as well as the selection of 45 students as participants. The results showed that IVR significantly improved the knowledge of the best evacuation practices and self-efficacy (T-test, p  0.005) with long-term influence on the memory of the participants. These observations supported the previous studies that reported the ability of virtual reality in ensuring longer knowledge retention compared to traditional learning methods.Contribution: Immersive virtual reality was found to have the potential to be applied as an interesting pedagogical tool for flood evacuation training. The application of the method for drills was discovered to be more efficient, cost-effective, and provide enhanced knowledge retention for users. This research shows the significance of seamlessly incorporating knowledge with flood evacuation practices through IVR in disaster education programmes. The integration is important in the transformation of knowledge into actionable steps, thereby enhancing overall preparedness.
Experiences and Lessons Learned from the Measles-Rubella Vaccination Campaign 2023 Implemented in Private Schools of Kolkata
Authors: Mukherjee Poulomi , Datta Mousumi , Chakraborty Arup , Das Debasis
Published: February 2025

Background:

Measles-Rubella vaccination campaign (MRVC) was conducted in West Bengal with a target to achieve more than 95% vaccination among children aged 9 months to 15 years.

Materials and Methods:

A concurrent mixed-method study was undertaken in Kolkata from June 2023 to July 2023 with the objectives to explore strategies adopted in MRVC to achieve target, and lessons learned, and to identify barriers to implement MRVC, particularly in elite private schools. Thirty private schools and three medical officers of the borough health office were interviewed. Both quantitative and qualitative analyses were conducted.

Results:

The vaccination coverage was 70.16%. Sensitization meeting with parents before MRVC was not conducted in eight schools; key messages communicated were on the safety and benefit of the measles and rubella (MR) vaccine. The main pre-implementation barriers identified were the short notice period, sessions conflicting with pre-planned school activities, and hesitancy of parents. Frequently reported barriers during the sessions were delays in starting sessions, 30-minute waiting period after vaccination, and the involvement of teachers in the documentation process. Missed children were immunized in local health facilities and community-based sessions.

Conclusions:

With one of every four students not getting the vaccine in the school campaign, the progress toward MR elimination will halt. The main reasons for poor performance were deficient coordination between the health and education department, lack of ownership by schools, and low visibility of the campaign. Observations from this study highlight the need for effective planning, better advocacy, judicious use of communication strategy, and school-led promotion of vaccination.

Published: February 2025

The usage of the manual mercury sphygmomanometer to measure blood pressure (BP) is universally regarded as the gold standard, but its use has decreased globally due to concerns about potential mercury toxicity. Automated BP devices have become more popular, though their accuracy in detecting hypertension hasn’t been studied extensively. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 301 adult female students of the University of Delhi with the aim to assess the degree of agreement between standard manual mercury sphygmomanometer and automated BP monitor (Omron JPN1). Three consecutive BP readings were taken on the left arm by a certified medical doctor using both instruments. Bland Altman plots were created to assess the degree of agreement between the two BP devices and to test the accuracy of automated BP monitor in detecting hypertensive adults. The automated BP monitor underestimated the systolic BP measurement by 4 mmHg and diastolic BP measurement by 7 mmHg as determined by Bland Altman plot. Based on international validation protocols, a mean difference of < 5 ± 8 mmHg was established to assess the level of agreement between the two devices. The automatic BP monitor did not show complete agreement with the “gold standard” mercury sphygmomanometer. With growing restrictions on the use of mercury sphygmomanometers, its replacement with an equivalent mercury-free validated device is urgently needed.

Authors: Dsouza Jevita , Sahoo Rupambika , Rege Sumita
Published: February 2025

Feeding is an important task for young children essential for fostering sensory, motor, and social skills for their overall well-being and functional independence. Globally, feeding problems in typically developing children are reported to range from 17.5% to 49.2%. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of feeding difficulties in preschool children in Udupi. Also, the strategies used for children with feeding difficulties were identified. A cross-sectional study design was implemented in preschools of Udupi. The Behavioural Paediatric Feeding Assessment Scale (BPFAS) was administered to caregivers of 217 pre-schoolers of Udupi town to identify the prevalence of feeding difficulties. An open ended question about the strategies employed for feeding their children was also included in the questionnaire. Descriptive statistics were employed to analyse the data. The results showed a high prevalence of feeding difficulties i.e. 47.5% and 55.76% according to the Total Feeding Scores (TFS) and Total Problem Scores (TPS) respectively, based on the BPFAS. Parents used various behavioural and other strategies to feed their children. The findings of the study highlight the high prevalence of feeding issues among pre-schoolers. Thus, it is important to create awareness among caregivers of typically developing children and provide interventions to both the child as well as the caregivers involved in feeding.
Fluoxetine Brakes the Menstrual Cycle: Uncovering the Unexpected Effect
Authors: Ramanathan Barath , Vijayan Souganya , Sivakumar Perarul , Selvaraj Arun
Published: February 2025

Fluoxetine is one of the most commonly used antidepressants, classified under selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). It is indicated for the treatment of depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety, and eating disorders. The antidepressant effect of fluoxetine is achieved by inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin (5-HT) via the serotonin transporter (SERT) in neurons. Although fluoxetine is generally considered safe and well-tolerated by most patients, this case series describes instances where patients treated with fluoxetine subsequently developed menstrual irregularities. Upon discontinuation of fluoxetine, the menstrual cycles returned to normal. To the best of our knowledge, there is a lack of precise data associating fluoxetine with the onset of menstrual irregularities. This effect may be related to its central serotonergic action via 5-HT action modulates the prolactin, estradiol, and progesterone level. Therefore, physicians should be aware of the potential risk of fluoxetine-induced menstrual irregularities.

ABSTRACT

Introduction:

The genetic diversity of the population in India, shaped by its unique history of migrations and varied ethnic landscape, suggests the possibility of genetic profiles distinct from the western populations.

Objective:

The objective is to investigate the genetic basis of spina bifida in the Indian cohort through whole-exome sequencing and pathway enrichment.

Methods:

The variants of uncertain significance (VUS) of spina bifida were identified through whole-exome sequencing in the study cohort (n = 3). The pathogenic, likely pathogenic, and VUS were analyzed for protein–protein interactions and functional associations with genes implicated in spina bifida using tools such as STRING and KEGG pathways, which were validated through a literature review. The study was focused on the Wnt/planar cell polarity signaling pathway, which is crucial for neural tube closure.

Results:

The study-cohort was collectively represented through 40 common VUS, including eight deleterious SNPs related to genes AP3D1, NLRP9, PCDHGA11, PRSS3, MTSS2, ENDOV, C9, and NSD3. These genes were functionally linked to neural development, immune response, and cellular processes critical for neural tube closure. Notably, interactions were observed between four genes (NLGN2, PKD1, PRSS3, and PLK1) and CTNNB1 (Wnt signaling pathway) crucial for embryonic neural tube formation.

Conclusions:

This study has identified novel genetic variants and pathways potentially contributing to the etiopathogenesis of spina bifida in the Indian population. Future research with larger cohorts and functional studies is necessary to validate these findings and explore their potential for clinical applications in spina bifida.
Some properties of convolution and spherical analysis on the Euclidean motion group
Authors: Edeke Uwe , Bassey Unanaowo
Published: February 2025

The Euclidean motion group G = S E(n) is a non-commutative and non-compact solvable Lie group which may also be referred to as an affine group of rigid motions on Rn realized as G = Rn x SO(n). It is observed that this group is isomorphic to the collection of homogeneous transformation matrices. This article presents a novel method for calculating the Haar measure of G, and is demonstrated that it is the product of the Lebesque measure of R2 and the normalized measure of SO(2). A thorough description is given of the topology of the Schwartz space of G (S(G = S E(n))) and how it is produced by a system of semi-norms. For n = 2, the convolution product of functions in SS E(2) realises the Radon transform of functions in SS E(2). It is demonstrated that this convolution is homogeneous, smooth and satisfies the moment condition. Further more, spherical analysis on the Gelfand pair (Rn x SO(n), SO(n)) is presented, including an explicit determination of spherical function for G, when n = 2, by the method of separation of variables.

Role of Catalase Enzyme in the Existence of Allicin on Hep-G2 Cell Line
Authors: Karimi Bashir Ahmad , Ahmadyfalah Sayed Abdul Aziz , Shariati Abdulrahim
Published: February 2025

In recent years, there has been significant attention on the use of chemical and bioactive compounds extracted from medicinal plant sources to prevent and treat various diseases. Among the active components of herbal medicines, curcumin, resveratrol, quercetin, emodin, silybin, and their derivatives have been particularly discussed in the treatment of chronic and common disorders such as cardiovascular, metabolic, neurogenic diseases, and cancer. It is estimated that about sixty percent of currently widely used anticancer drugs are derived from natural sources. These compounds also play an important role in cancer prevention, due to their high ability to scavenge free radicals, inhibit cell growth, and induce apoptosis. For centuries, garlic and its derived compounds have attracted researchers' attention due to their health-promoting effects. Various bioactive compounds in garlic are responsible for its health benefits, among which allicin is one of the key components. Allicin is responsible for the pungent odor of garlic and is one of the most important organosulfur compounds in garlic, making up about 70% of the thiosulfate compounds. Allicin is produced during the crushing of garlic through the enzymatic activity of alliinase on alliin and is effective against a wide range of microorganisms. The antimicrobial and antioxidant properties of allicin are attributed to its reaction with the thiol groups of various enzymes. Allicin prevents cancer onset and progression by blocking metastasis and inhibiting excessive cell proliferation. This study investigates the role of the enzyme catalase in the presence of allicin on the Hep-G2 cell line. Allicin, the active ingredient in garlic, was applied in its pure form to Hep-G2 cancer cells in a concentration range from 0 to 250 µg/mL for 24 hours. The MTT assay revealed that allicin had an inhibitory effect on the proliferation of these cells. A proposed mechanism for the cytotoxic effect of allicin is the impact of oxygen free radicals on the biochemical structure of these cells. The general reduction in catalase enzyme activity leads to an increase in these free radicals. Ultimately, by inducing oxidative stress and decreasing catalase activity, allicin causes cellular toxicity and exhibits anticancer properties on Hep-G2 cells.
НЕРАВНОМЕРНОСТЬ СОЦИАЛЬНО-ЭКОНОМИЧЕСКОГО РАЗВИТИЯ РЕГИОНОВ РОССИИ: ПУТИ И ВОЗМОЖНОСТИ ВЫРАВНИВАНИЯ
Authors: Лисова Е.В.
Published: February 2025

Неравномерность социально-экономического развития регионов исторически характерна для России, как и для всех федеративных или обладающей большой территорией государств при всех политических режимах и экономических системах. Она не может быть полностью устранена, в том числе посредством реализации федеральных целевых программ или перераспределения доходов от регионов-доноров. Устоявшийся процессный термин «выравнивание», ввиду невозможности достижения конечного результата представляется устаревшим и не соответствующим задачам региональной политики. Сегодня приоритет отдается обеспечению равенства экономических, институциональных, информационных и логистических возможностей для самореализации личности, занятия предпринимательской и иной экономической деятельностью во всех регионах России.

Uneven socio-economic development of regions is historically characteristic of Russia, as well as of all federal or large-territory states under all political regimes and economic systems, and cannot be completely eliminated, including through the implementation of federal target programs or the redistribution of income from donor regions. The established process term “leveling”, due to the impossibility of achieving the final result, seems outdated and inconsistent with the tasks of regional policy. The priority is to ensure equality of economic, institutional, informational and logistical opportunities for self-realization of the individual, entrepreneurial and other economic activities in all regions of Russia.

Published: February 2025

В статье с позиции традиционной интегративно-последовательной концепции сделан вывод, что не всякое правообразование переходит или завершается правотворчеством, а лишь отвечающее фактически сложившимся общественным отношениям, признанным ценностями и конституционно закрепленным положениями. Правотворчество и правообразование рассматриваются как непрерывные и взаимосвязанные процессы, а не жестко поэтапно фиксированное развитие. Выявлены недостатки преобладающей в литературе идеальной теоретической модели в условиях управляемой демократии. Сделаны выводы об интересах в разработке нового регулирования или совершенствовании действующего, а также об относительной пассивности большей части общества.

From the position of the traditional integrative-consistent concept, it was concluded that not every legal formation passes or ends with law-making, but only one that corresponds to actually established social relations, recognized values and constitutionally enshrined provisions. Lawmaking and legal formation are viewed as continuous and interconnected processes, rather than a rigidly staged “fixed” development. The shortcomings of the ideal theoretical model prevailing in the literature in a managed democracy are revealed. Conclusions are drawn about the interests in developing new regulation or improving the existing one, as well as the relative passivity of the majority of society.

Published: February 2025

The availability of electrical energy is a fundamental requirement in modern society, supporting both daily life and industrial activities. To ensure efficient and reliable energy distribution, power flow analysis is critical. This analysis is grounded in Kirchhoff's laws, which serve as the foundation for understanding electrical circuits. Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) states that "the sum of electric currents entering and leaving a branch point is zero," while Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL) asserts that "the sum of electromotive forces and potential drops in a closed circuit must equal zero." These laws guide the formulation and solution of equations describing power flow in electrical networks. To manage the complexity of these systems, the Gauss-Seidel method has emerged as an effective iterative technique for solving large systems of linear equations. In the context of power flow analysis, it calculates busbar voltages, active and reactive power flows, and other parameters, refining the results through successive approximations until convergence is achieved. Python is widely recognized as an ideal platform for implementing the Gauss-Seidel method due to its syntactic simplicity, flexibility, and extensive computational libraries. By leveraging Python, engineers can streamline computations and enhance the accuracy and reliability of power flow analyses. This combination of mathematical rigor and computational power not only ensures precise results but also facilitates the efficient management of complex electrical systems in modern power grids.

Monstrosity in Games and Play
Authors: Stang Sarah , Meriläinen Mikko , Blom Joleen , Hassan Lobna
Published: February 2025

Monsters fascinate us. From ancient folklore to contemporary digital games, they are at the core of the stories we tell. They reflect our fears, deepest desires, and the monstrosity hidden within ourselves. Monsters hold a mirror to our contemporary society and reveal who we truly are.

This edited collection examines monsters and monstrosity in games and play. Monsters are a key feature of most games: we fight, kill, and eat them—and sometimes, we become them. However, monsters in games and play are not only entertaining but also a reflection of the monstrosity of our world. In this book, twenty-two scholars explore how themes such as mental health, colonialism, individualism, disability, gender, sexuality, racism, and exclusion are reflected in the monsters we interact with in games, play, and our daily lives both online and offline.

Monstrosity in Games and Play is recommended to readers interested in the monstrous in contemporary game cultures and their surrounding societies.

The current investigation wasaimedat determining the levels of some virulent factors that evolve inKlebsiella pneumoniaethat are treated with different temperatures (-5, 4, 25 and 37 °C), pH (4 and 11.7) and oxygen level. The growth response of K. pneumoniae under these conditions was analyzed quantitatively by measuring the optical densities of the cultures. Biofilm formation was analyzed using the crystal violet method. Secreted metabolites were qualitatively observed onthin-layer chromatographywhile isolates were subjected to disk diffusion-based antibiotic susceptibility testing. Under the acidic condition, a significant reduction in bacterial growth in comparison to the control cultures were observedat all tested temperatures 37 °C (p=0.0088), 25 °C and 4 °C (p=0.0006) and -5 °C (p=0.0022). Similarly, there was a significant decrease in K. pneumoniae growth under basal conditions compared to 37 °C p<0.05. Biofilm formation was significantly reduced in acidic media under the aerobic condition (p=0.0259) while the basic media showed a similar significant reduction in the anaerobic condition (p=0.0150). Thin-layer chromatography showed the formation of bands at -5 °C and 4 °C with Rf of 0.6 and 0.9 both in acidic media. Antibiotic susceptibility tests demonstrated different patterns of the clearance zoneswith multiple antibiotic resistance (MAR) indices that fluctuate with increasing temperatures. Acidic and basic media also induced higher MAR indices of 0.6 while the control exhibited a lesser value of 0.0. The acidic medium under the anaerobic condition also induced a similar MAR index of 0.6 while basic media had 0.2.Conclusively, the exposure of K. pneumoniae to different conditions of pH, temperatures, and oxygen showed increases in growth, biofilm, secretion of metabolites, antibiotic resistance and susceptibility in some conditions, suggesting that these conditions promote virulence.

Abstract :The objective of this study was to determine the proportion of MOCAF (Modified Cassava Flour) and rice flour that produced  oyster’s mushroom nugget with the best chemical quality (moisture, ash and protein content) and sensory (color, texture and taste). Completely Randomized Design (CRD), consisting of six treatments (T1=MOCAF 10%:Rice Flour 30%:OM 60 %;T2=MOCAF 16%: Rice Flour 24%:OM 60 %;, T3=MOCAF 22%: Rice Flour 18%:OM 60%; T4=MOCAF 28%: Rice Flour 12%:OM 60%; T5= MOCAF 34%: Rice Flour 6%:OM 60%; T6=MOCAF 40%: Rice Flour 0%:60%) with triplicate. The results of this study showed that the ratio of MOCAF and rice flour that produced the best quality oyster mushroom nuggets for chemical parameters was T1=MOCAF 10%: 30% rice flour: 60% oyster mushroom (water content 61.92%, ash content 1.80 % and protein content of 3.60%, while the organoleptic parameters were T6=40% MOCAF: 0% rice flour: 60% oyster’s mushrooms (color , taste and texture are preferred by the panelists).

Integrated classes can follow the curriculum designed for mainstream schools while applying the methods and techniques available in special schools. This solution makes it possible for students with different educational needs to learn in these classes. The aim of the study was to identify parents’ views on the benefits of their non-disabled child functioning at a younger school age in an integrated class. For the purposes of the study, the procedure developed for mixed strategies. Triangulation of the data was carried out. A case study method was used, which included a questionnaire, interviews with teachers, parents and analysis of school documents. The study revealed that the vast majority of parents perceive the benefits of their non-disabled child functioning in an integrated class. In addition, two thirds of parents believe that their children’s stay in an integrated class has a positive impact on their social development. Nearly half of the parents point to the benefits of their child’s functioning in an integrated class for their child’s emotional development. Although the parents’ statements paint a positive picture of the functioning of a non-disabled child in an integrated class, deeper reflection on their statements reveals a way of organising education in an integrated class that is oriented towards a normative approach, i.e. one that is derived from what is enshrined in formal legal acts such as regulations, orders and guidelines.

Поведенческое здоровье представляет собой одну из наиболее спорных и сложных областей в современной психологической литературе, научных исследованиях, законодательстве, а также в практике оказания психиатрической и психологической помощи. Сложности определения этого феномена обусловлены как размытостью его границ, так и различиями в подходах к его трактовке в мировой и современной казахстанской практике и науке. А в нашей стране корни этой неоднозначности можно найти в исторических факторах, которые оказали значительное влияние на развитие данного феномена и теорий о нем, а также на коллективное и индивидуальное сознание. В статье рассматриваются подходы формирования представлений о поведенческом здоровье и нормах, нарушениях, связанных с ним. Анализируются последствия советского наследия в этих областях, а также их влияние на актуальные подходы к определению поведенческих расстройств. Особое внимание уделяется современному этапу развития клинической, судебной психологии и патопсихологии. Статья подчеркивает значимость учета исторических контекстов и их воздействия на современные тенденции в казахстанской науке, что позволяет глубже понять специфику формирования подходов к поведенческому здоровью и его нарушениям, а также обуславливает необходимость адаптации этих подходов к международным стандартам в сфере психического и поведенческого здоровья и отхода от исторической обусловленности, которая препятствует внедрению более современных, универсальных и научно обоснованных методов.

Данная статья написана по результатам исследования, посвященного проблемам психологии обучения. Процесс обучения раскрывается автором через совместное взаимодействие субъектов, в процессе которого формируется общий фонд смысловых образований (ОФСО). ОФСО, по результатам исследования, выступает условием эффективной совместной деятельности людей. Исходя из концепции профессора Джакупова С.М, совместно-диалогическая познавательная деятельность будет сформирована только при условии формирования общего фонда смысловых образований. В статье описываются стадии формирования ОФСО, значимость его для взаимодействия и обучения, методы диагностики общего фонда смысловых образований, а также приводится пример из исследования о влиянии формирования ОФСО на процесс обучения. В исследовании приняли участие 500 учителей. 250 из которых были в контрольной группе и 250 учителей стали участниками экспериментальной группы. Исследование было направлено на изучение феномена ОФСО и его влияния на процесс обучения. Были получены результаты, что влияет на формирование ОФСО во взаимодействии и как оно в свою очередь влияет на людей во время обучения.
