Aim: The study aimed to evaluate fatty acids and mineral content of four selected freshwater fish species.

Methodology: Fresh fish, Labeo calbasu, Hypophthalmichthys molitrix, Oreochromis niloticus and Pangasianodon pangassius were processed for preparation of fish powder. The fish powder was analyzed for fatty acids content in gas chromatography. Lipid health indices were calculated. The mineral analysis was performed using an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer.

Results: Among fatty acids, total saturated fatty acids (SFA) varied between 1039.09 mg 100 g-1 in silver carp and 4669.58 mg 100 g-1 in pangassius. Total monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) ranged from 1343.4 mg 100 g-1 to 2419.51 mg 100 g-1. Palmitic acid and Oleic acid were found to be the most dominant individual SFA and MUFA respectively in fishes. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) content varied from 446.72 mg 100 g-1 to 1221.14 mg 100 g-1. Docosahexaenoic acid (5.67 mg 100 g-1) and eicosapentaenoic acid (6.58 mg 100 g-1) contents were found highest in tilapia. All fishes were characterized by high levels of ω-3 fatty acids than ω-6 fatty acids. Minerals such as Ca, Na, K, Mg, Zn and Fe were observed in appreciable quantities.

Interpretation: The results of the present study revealed that selected fish species have high and nutritious fatty acids and mineral composition for offering positive health benefits upon consumption.

Earthworms, despite having both female and male reproductive systems in the same individual (hermaphrodite), generally practice cross-fertilization. This is due to the fact that in earthworms, the testis matures earlier than the ovary. So, they generally do not undergo self-fertilization. The occurrence of parthenogenesis is not rare in earthworms. Probable involvement of extensive courtship behaviour involving repeated short touches with sensory prostomium of the copulating partners was recorded in Lumbricidae. During conjugation, the partners lie close together with their ventral body parts, keeping their heads in opposite directions. During sperm transfer, the spermathecal aperture of one individual makes intimate contact with the male genital aperture of the corresponding partner.

The mucus secretion from the clitellar section covers the opposing partners. Copulation lasts for about one hour. The worms move backwards, drawing the ‘slime secretion tube’ over the head. When the earthworms are entirely free, the ends of the tube close to form the cocoon. The shape of the cocoon is genus-specific. But its development time varies with species. This paper aims to review the process of copulation, cocoon formation, morphology, breeding strategies, neurosecretory control of copulation and cocoon production in earthworms.
MUSEU DO ROMANCE DA ETERNA:
Authors: Corsini Lourenção Cristiane , Bastazin Vera
Published: February 2025

O artigo propõe investigar a potência da escrita da ausência no romance Museu do Romance da Eterna (2010), do escritor argentino Macedonio Fernández. Parte-se da hipótese de que a escrita macedoniana, em seu caráter de permanente autorreflexividade, questiona a própria narrativa e seus elementos constitutivos, propondo a desconstrução do gênero romanesco e criando novas possibilidades estéticas. O aspecto metaficcional do texto terá sua leitura embasada por Bernardo (2010) e a análise do texto literário pretende considerar os aspectos materiais da escrita de Fernandez, a exemplo dos paratextos e das interrupções frequentes impostas pelo autor ao fluxo do romance. Nesse sentido, o leitor, sempre convocado, participa ativamente da produção de sentido do texto e a negação do gênero romanesco realista é reforçada pelo aspecto autoconsciente da narrativa: a todo momento é lembrado ao leitor que aquilo que tem em mãos é tão-somente ficção. A percepção de Macedonio como escritor dissidente, ou autêntico Bartleby, em seu caráter de permanente recusa da escrita, será comentada a partir do texto-ensaio de Vila-Matas (2021). Macedonio, no entanto, diferentemente das personagens de Vila-Matas, nega a escrita, mas o faz escrevendo, o que evidencia o aspecto ambivalente de seu texto. O resultado, como propomos, é de um monumento à arte literária.
Direitos Humanos, Reflexões digitais e Tributação Justa
Authors: Macena de Araújo Jailton , Katarina de Medeiros Costa Hirdan
Published: February 2025

Os Direitos Humanos são princípios universais que garantem a dignidade, liberdade, igualdade e justiça para todas as pessoas, independentemente de sua origem, raça, sexo, cor, idade ou quais outra característica cultural ou condição. Esses direitos abrangem dimensões amplas e interdependentes, como os direitos civis, políticos, econômicos, sociais e culturais. Entre os exemplos mais relevantes, destacam-se o direito à vida, à liberdade de expressão, ao trabalho digno, à educação de qualidade e à saúde universal e acessível. Fundamentados em tratados e convenções internacionais e protegidos pelas legislações nacionais, os direitos humanos são pilares universais para a promoção da paz, da justiça e do bem-estar social. 
 
Paralelamente, vivemos em um contexto de transformação digital, em que as tecnologias digitais estão integradas a praticamente todos os aspectos da vida em sociedade. Essa revolução tecnológica redefine a forma como indivíduos, empresas e governos operam e interagem, trazendo desafios e oportunidades. Por um lado, a digitalização pode ampliar o acesso a direitos básicos, como educação e saúde, e promover maior transparência nas relações institucionais, ampliando assim a gama e o acesso aos direitos humanos. Por outro, exige um debate aprofundado sobre questões como privacidade, 
 
exclusão digital e a necessidade de regulação ética para evitar desigualdades tecnológicas. Outro elemento central para a construção de uma sociedade justa é a tributação. Uma política tributária justa não apenas garante a redistribuição de riqueza, como também desempenha um papel essencial no estímulo ao desenvolvimento socioeconômico e na manutenção da infraestrutura e dos serviços essenciais como saúde, educação e segurança. Ao promover uma alocação equilibrada de recursos, a tributação contribui diretamente para a redução de desigualdades sociais e para a construção de uma economia sustentável e inclusiva.
 
Assim, a articulação entre Direitos Humanos, transformações digitais e políticas de tributação revela-se crucial para o enfrentamento dos desafios do mundo contemporâneo. Compreender as intersecções entre esses pilares é essencial para traçar caminhos que assegurem desenvolvimento social e econômico sem comprometer os valores fundamentais da dignidade humana.

Published: February 2025

Este estudo tem como tema a comunicação de risco utilizada durante o maior desastre natural já registrado no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, extremo sul do Brasil. Tem como objetivos identificar como a população do município de Canoas/RS manteve-se informada sobre o desastre natural; e analisar como a população interagiu com a comunicação de risco veiculada pela Prefeitura Municipal. Trata-se de um estudo de objetivo exploratório, o qual utilizou-se de procedimentos de levantamento bibliográfico e documental e pesquisa de opinião. Concluiu-se que as redes sociais foram os canais de comunicação mais acionados pela população, embora aquelas ligadas a órgãos oficiais não tenham se configurado como principais fontes de informação. No caso da Prefeitura de Canoas, as mensagens divulgadas no canal oficial da rede social Instagram dificultaram a tomada de decisão frente à emergência, reflexo de uma cultura nacional que tem dificuldades histórico-estruturais em relação à gestão de risco.
PERCEPÇÕES DE PROFESSORES DO ENSINO FUNDAMENTAL SOBRE CIÊNCIA E INFORMAÇÃO DIGITAL EM UMA ESCOLA PÚBLICA NO MUNICÍPIO DE UBÁ/MG
Authors: Cassini-Vieira Puebla , Batista Fabiano Eloy Atílio , Benhame Rayane Cristina de Mello
Published: February 2025

Neste estudo, foi investigada a percepção de professores do ensino fundamental sobre a relação entre ciência, informação e consumo de conteúdo científico digital em uma escola de Ubá. A pesquisa utilizou a Análise Textual Discursiva (ATD), com suporte do software Iramuteq®. Ficou evidente que os professores possuem uma visão limitada e estereotipada da ciência e dos cientistas, associando-os principalmente à pesquisa em laboratórios. Essa percepção reflete a predominância do método indutivista e resulta em uma compreensão fragmentada do papel da ciência na sociedade. Essas descobertas destacam a necessidade de uma educação científica crítica, que supere estereótipos e promova o diálogo entre cientistas e a sociedade. Além disso, enfatiza-se a importância de políticas públicas e projetos voltados à educação científica, visando aumentar a conscientização pública sobre a ciência, combater a desinformação e enfrentar os desafios contemporâneos. Tais iniciativas são essenciais para promover o avanço científico em um mundo cada vez mais complexo.
Is it about time to establish economics of hypertension?
Authors: Hu Chunsong
Published: February 2025

There are more and more individuals with hypertension in the globe. How
to manage and self-manage hypertension with better cost-effectiveness
needs economic principles and theories. Herein, in this article, the
author suggests to develop a new discipline on economics and
hypertension. The author briefly introduces the current status of
hypertension in both China and the globe. Since lifestyle links to
economics and hypertension, the author proposes that it’s about time to
establish the “economics of hypertension” because it contributes to
better management and self-management of hypertension not only in China
but also in the globe. In fact, many clinical studies and trials have
already confirmed the benefits of economic knowledge on management and
self-management of hypertension. When people understand and know about
related economic principles and theories, they will get more benefits
from Economics of Hypertension and better protection of blood pressure
with cost-effectiveness. All in all, it’s about time to establish the
Economics of Hypertension, since it contributes to better management and
self-management of hypertension with better cost-effectiveness. Just
like Health in All Policies and Health in All Laws, Health in All
Economics should be a novel consensus in the new era, particularly the
COVID-19 pandemic and post-COVID-19 era.

Published: February 2025

Glassy rods of the multicomponent ferromagnetic Fe65.5Cr4Mo4Ga4P12C5B5.5
alloy were prepared by copper-mold casting technique under a protective
argon atmosphere with diameters of 1.5mm and 1.8 mm. As-cast samples were
examined by non-isothermal analysis (DSC and DTA) and X-ray diffraction
(XRD). The relatively high values for reduced glass transition temperature
(Trg = 0.57) and supercooled liquid region width (?Tx ? 60 K) indicate good
glass forming ability (GFA) and high thermal stability of the undercooled
liquid relative to the crystallization process. The numerous intermetallic
compounds during the devitrification process were evolved. Set of three GFA
parameters are obtained: ? = Tx / Tl = 0.61; ? = Tx / (Tg + Tl) = 0.39; ? =
Tx / (Tl - Tg) = 1.41. The Kissinger method was applied to evaluate the
apparent activation energy and the frequency factor. The rate constant of
the crystallization process is estimated by Arrhenius law. The following
values are calculated: Ea = 418.03 kJ/mol; Z = 1.78?1027 min-1; kx = 1.56
min-1 (for 1.5 mm), and Ea = 375.48 kJ/mol; Z = 1.88?1024 min-1; kx = 1.44
min-1 (for 1.8 mm).
Characterization and optical properties of cobalt-doped β-tricalcium phosphate nanoparticles: Microwave refluxing and high-temperature sintering
Authors: Alshemary Ammar , Sarsık Betül , Almozani Marwah , Alhachami Firas , Çardaklı İsmail , Motameni Ali
Published: February 2025

This study investigates the synthesis, characterization, and optical
properties of cobalt-doped ?-tricalcium phosphate (Co-?TCP) nanoparticles
prepared via microwave refluxing and sintered at 1000?C for 2 hours.
Incorporating Co2+ ions into the ?TCP structure significantly influences its
microstructural and optical properties. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD)
reveals a contraction of the crystal lattice upon Co2+ doping, attributed to
the substitution of larger Ca2+ ions (ionic radius 0.099 nm) with smaller
Co2+ ions (ionic radius 0.074 nm). This reduces lattice parameters, cell
volume, crystallinity, and smaller crystallite sizes. The degree of
crystallinity decreases from 89.56% for pure ?-TCP to 57.81% for 3Co-?-TCP.
Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) shows that Co2+ doping produces more
homogeneous powder with enhanced interconnectivity while maintaining a
spheroidal agglomerated structure. The average particle size decreases from
approximately 300 nm for pure ?TCP to 246 nm for 3Co-?TCP. Fourier transform
infrared spectroscopy confirms the successful integration of Co2+ ions into
the ?TCP lattice, evidenced by peak broadening and intensity reduction.
Notably, incorporating Co2+ ions induces a striking colour change from white
to pink, with intensity proportional to cobalt concentration. UV-Vis
spectroscopy reveals characteristic absorption peaks at 530 and 678 nm,
associated with Co2+ electronic transitions. The unique optical properties
of Co2+ ions doped in ?TCP open up new possibilities for its use in
bioimaging and drug delivery systems

Revascularization strategies failed to improve outcome in diabetic (DM) patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Histone modifications are key modulators of gene expression and could play a role in angiogenic response. This study investigates the role of chromatin remodelling in modulating angiogenesis in DM. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and angiogenic assays (cell migration and tube formation) were performed in human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs) exposed to normal glucose (NG, 5 mM) or high glucose (HG, 25 mM) for 48h. The expression of the histone methyltransferase SETD7 and its chromatin signature at histone 3 on lysine 4 (H3K4me1) were investigated by Western blot and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP). Diabetic mice were treated with the SETD7 inhibitor (R)-PFI-2 or vehicle and underwent hindlimb ischemia by femoral artery ligation. The experimental findings were translated into two cohorts of DM patients with PAD. RNA-seq in HG-treated HAECs unveiled SETD7 as the top-ranking transcript. SETD7 upregulation was associated with increased H3K4me1 levels and defective angiogenesis. Both SETD7 depletion and (R)PFI-2 rescued hyperglycemia-induced impairment of HAECs migration and tube formation, while SETD7 overexpression blunted the angiogenic response. RNA-seq and ChIP assays showed that SETD7-induced H3K4me1 enables the transcription of the angiogenesis inhibitor semaphorin-3G (SEMA3G) by increasing chromatin accessibility to PPARγ. In diabetic mice with hindlimb ischemia, (R)-PFI-2 improved limb perfusion by suppressing SEMA3G. SETD7/SEMA3G axis was upregulated in DM patients with PAD. Of note, (R)-PFI-2 restored angiogenic properties in endothelial cells collected from DM patients. These findings show that SETD7 is a druggable epigenetic target in diabetic PAD.
Is root canal treatment and an indirect coronal restoration of a mandibular first molar cost-effective compared to extraction and an implant-supported crown? A decision analytic approach
Authors: Savolainen Nikki , Frisk Fredrik , Kvist Thomas
Published: February 2025

Objective: The aim was to compare the cost-effectiveness of root canal treatment and an indirect restoration (RCT + PC) versus an implant-supported single crown (ISSC) in the case of a decayed first mandibular molar with a necrotic pulp. The study was based on Swedish population and the reference prices for dental treatments in Sweden.
Materials and methods: The cost-effectiveness for RCT + PC and ISSC were calculated with the help of two decision trees. The initial costs were from the Swedish dental reference prices in 2024, and the probability values were from published articles based on Swedish data.
Results: In Decision tree I, the expected costs for RCT + PC and for ISSC were 17,400 and 18,800 SEK, respectively. In the Decision tree II, the respected expected costs were 19,500 SEK and 18,800 SEK. The threshold probability values were 83 and 93% for RCT survival.
Conclusions: Given the assumptions and limitations of this decision analysis, the probability of survival for RCT + PC needs to be in the range of 83–93% in order for it to be more cost-effective than ISSC, when deciding about treatment on a compromised first mandibular molar.
Advanced Manufacturing Techniques for Implantable Blood Pumps
Authors:   , Rees Rhodri
Published: February 2025

Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVAD) have been developed to provide an alternative to heart transplant surgery. The manufacture of these devices by traditional routes is expensive, time consuming and labour intensive due to the complexity and the level of precision required of each component. Despite significant developments in LVAD functionality in recent decades, manufacturability remains an issue, particularly as functionality is directly influenced by component geometries. Subsequently, the manufacturability of current LVAD components exceed traditional manufacturing process capabilities. This thesis explores the application of Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF), an advanced manufacturing technique which have been identified as a potentially feasible alternative to subtractive manufacturing, due to its ability to rapidly produce complex shaped geometries. L-PBF technology also benefits from the ability to process Ti6Al4V, a biocompatible material used for the majority of the components of an LVAD. Thermally induced residual stresses can lead to geometric inaccuracy within L-PBF made components. Part geometry and size can influence the amount of geometric displacement caused by L-PBF process-induced residual stress. Geometric shape retention is critical for an LVAD application due to exacting tolerances and precision fit between components. An analysis of various L-PBF made Ti6Al4V geometries was to prove that part geometry and size is a key driver of stress-induced geometric displacement. The position of a part on the build substrate has minimal effect on the amount of displacement, introducing the ability to position components without risk of high scrap rates. An investigation of a novel diffusion bonding process using Hot Isostatic Pressing equipment to combine joining and porosity reduction of L-PBF components is shown to be successful in principle. However, the process was unsuitable for medical device manufacture due to poor process control, poor shape retention and process repeatability. This method is better suited for solid-to-powder bonding.

Published: February 2025

The existence of political parties is an indicator for improving the quality of a democratic country. The Indonesian People's Wave Party (Gelora) is one of the new parties, which is participating in the realm of politics in Indonesia. The institutionalization of a party can be seen through four dimensions as the process of institutionalizing party: the systemic dimension, value identity, autonomy and the public image. Researchers used descriptive qualitative research methods to describe research results in general. The research informants were determined by means of purposive sampling consisting of political party elements and academics or political observers. The results of the study show that the institutionalization process of the regional leadership council Gelora party of West Sumatra has not run optimally. This can be seen from the work program in the form of political activities. The surge party is in a defensive position and indeed does not want to directly engage in political activities in society. Of the four dimensions for measuring political party institutions, the Gelora party is still improving on the systemic dimension and value identity.

Published: February 2025

Death rituals in Indonesian society vary among different tribes. This article aims to describe the manyanda tradition practiced by the Minangkabau community in Nagari Talang, Solok Regency. Although this tradition remains prevalent, there are concerns among community members that it may become extinct due to its lengthy processes and the financial burden it places on grieving families. Therefore, this article also explores the community's efforts to preserve the manyanda tradition. Employing a qualitative research methodology from an anthropological perspective, the researcher conducted interviews with fourteen informants and engaged in participatory observations over two weeks in Nagari Talang. Data were collected through interview transcripts, photographs, and relevant documents. The analysis involved identifying themes and patterns from the gathered information. The implementation of the manyanda tradition consists of six stages: preparation of household items, selection of participants, the second day of tahlil, recitation, counting the days, and providing clothing to the participants. To sustain the manyanda tradition, various stakeholders, including the Kerapatan Adat Nagari (KAN) and Bundo Kanduang, have established rules for the distribution of clothing. They also impose sanctions to kaum who do not participate in the tradition. Additionally, efforts are being made to educate the wider community about the manyanda tradition, and the local government is providing funding for traditional gatherings that focus on this ritual. Further research is needed to explore the aspects of sanctions and their impact on the implementation of this tradition.

This study explores the application of technology-based learning media in Pancasila and Civic Education (PPKn) for eleventh-grade students at SMA N 1 Lubuk Basung, Agam Regency, West Sumatra. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis. Data validity was ensured through source triangulation, while analysis followed the steps of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Findings indicate that technology-based media have been integrated into PPKn instruction in this classroom, with teachers skillfully managing their use despite challenges. Key obstacles include time required for device setup, limited Wi-Fi access, and student-reported issues, such as distracting shadows on PPT slides, unclear text, and low video volume. To address these challenges, teachers take measures such as preparing media in advance to maximize instructional time, providing alternative media options if needed, ensuring internet access through personal mobile data for hotspotting, incorporating student feedback into media evaluation, and participating in school-provided training on effective technology use in teaching. This research is limited to only one school in Agam Regency, West Sumatra, so the same problems may not be found in other places, for example in urban areas, obstacles such as internet access are not a major problem.
