Authors: Yağan Ersin , Avcı Süleyman
Published: October 2023

Stereotype threat occurs when educational institutions remind us of the stereotype that men are more successful in mathematics and that women's mathematics achievement is negatively affected. In this study, the effect of stereotype threat on the academic achievement of high school students was examined. In the designed experimental study, there are two experimental groups (threat 1 and 2) and a control group. The effects of two different stereotype threats were compared in the experimental groups. After the explanations to reveal stereotype threat in the experimental groups, a mathematics test was used and the "State Anxiety and Stereotype Awareness Scale" was administered at the end of the test. In this study conducted in the 10th grade of high school, data was also obtained from male students. According to the data, while there was no significant difference in terms of academic success between the study groups consisting of female students, it was seen that the academic success of the threat 1 group was higher among males. In terms of academic achievement, threat 1 group shows the greatest inequality between genders. It was observed that the state anxiety levels of female students in the experimental groups increased. According to the findings, in addition to a positive and low-level significant relationship between anxiety and academic success in female students, there is also a mediating relationship between anxiety and stereotype threat and academic success. There is no difference between male student groups. Awareness of stereotypes was low in both genders, and it was concluded that boys' awareness was higher than girls.
Qualitative Research on Social Media Addictions of Psychological Counsellor Candidates
Authors: Canoğulları Özge
Published: October 2023

Social media (SM), which is frequently preferred by young people, poses a risk of addiction when used excessively and unconsciously. Having self-awareness and becoming digitally literate, unlike other university students, is essential for psychological counselor candidates (PCC) in terms of preventive counseling they will do in the institutions they will work in the future. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare young people who use social media intensively or less by examining the views of PCC with high or low levels of social media addiction (SMA). This study presents a phenomenological approach to qualitative research. The SMA Scale-Adult Form was applied to the students (total 138 students) from the Department of Psychological Counselling and Guidance at Artvin Çoruh University. Focus group interviews were conducted with 20 PCC students who got the highest (11 students) and lowest (9 students) points on the scale, and extreme case and outlier samplings were preferred from the interviews. The data collected through the interviews were analyzed using content analysis. As a result of the study, SMA and related addiction symptoms have been observed in the PCC. The opinions of the PCC with low and high SMA levels varied in terms of the frequency of SM usage, application preferences, usage purposes, emotions, and opinions on the effect of SM on professional use. The results of the study are discussed and interpreted in line with the relevant literature, and recommendations are presented.

Flood is a common disaster globally with devastating impact. Community flood disaster preparedness is neglected in developing countries, Nigeria inclusive, especially in the rural areas. This study assessed and compared the level of community flood disaster preparedness in flood-prone rural and urban communities in Kaduna State. A mixed method comparative cross-sectional study design and multistage sampling technique and data obtained from 202 household heads in each study group (rural and urban communities) using pretested structured questionnaires, focus group discussions (FGDs), key informant interviews (KIIs) and observational checklist. Multistage sampling technique was used to select the household heads for the quantitative study. Purposive sampling was used to select the community members for the FGDs, the community leaders and staff of Kaduna State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) for the KIIs. The quantitative data was analyzed using SPSS version 23.0. The qualitative data was analysed using content analysis. Majority of both the rural (99.0%) and urban (86.1%) communities were not prepared for flood disaster; 34% and 10% of the rural and urban communities respectively had flood disaster plans. Only 19.3% in the urban communities compared with 1% in the rural communities had early warning systems. There was statistically significant difference on community flood disaster preparedness between the urban and rural communities (p =0.001). Overall, the flood preparedness in both rural and urban communities was very poor, though slightly better in the urban communities. There is need for training of the communities by the relevant stakeholder such as SEMA on flood disaster preparedness.

Authors: Suárez Salazar Andrea , Runge-Peña Andrés Klaus
Published: November 2023

Educar a los hijos en el hogar no es una práctica educativa nueva. No obstante, desde la década de los sesenta hasta nuestros días, ha sido cada vez más común en el mundo entero hasta hacer de ella un movimiento educativo de gran impacto social. Así, el presente artículo tiene como objetivo presentar una aproximación teórica a la educación en casa o homeschooling en Colombia, partiendo de su comprensión epistémica como un fenómeno educativo social. Para ello, se presentarán tres momentos de reflexión teórica que incluyen fuentes bibliográficas nacionales e internacionales y que esencialmente buscan argumentar: 1) que existen por lo menos tres enfoques teóricos de la educación en casa desde la década de los sesenta hasta nuestros días, a saber: la desescolarización, la educación en casa 1.0 y la educación en casa 2.0; 2) que es posible caracterizar epistémicamente la categoría “educación en casa” como fenómeno educativo social; y 3) que existen como mínimo cinco tipos de experiencias educativas significativas de homeschooling en Colombia. El estudio concluye que, dada la escasez de trabajos de investigación en torno al fenómeno educativo social en cuestión, se reafirma la necesidad de abordarlo de manera rigurosa, sistemática y académica en el territorio nacional, con el fin de describirlo e interpretarlo con mayor detalle y profundidad.

The research aims to obtain intercropping results by providing organic fertilizer combined with planting patterns. The research was conducted in the Subak Sampalan Delod Margi rice fields, Dawan District, Klungkung. This is a factorial experiment with a Randomized Block Design (RAK) consisting of two factors, namely the type of organic fertilizer (J), 3 levels J1 = Kerambitan agro organic fertilizer; J2 = rabbit cage fertilizer; J3 = Lemeksari compost fertilizer and planting pattern, 3 levels, namely P1 = monoculture; P2= intercropping 1:1; P3= intercropping 2:1. The results showed that the interaction of organic fertilizer type with planting pattern had no significant effect on all observed variables. The highest fresh weight of onion bulbs per hill and fresh weight of cayenne pepper fruit were obtained with the Kerambitan Agro organic fertilizer type, increasing by 10.93% and 10.64% compared to the rabbit manure type. The intercropping system is more profitable than monoculture because land productivity is higher and various commodities are produced, saving production facilities, and the risk of failure is reduced.
Don Quixote Was Right After All! The Truth About Windmills
Authors: Nulkur Dr. Gurudas
Published: October 2023

The installation of windmills for electricity generation is often heralded as an environmentally friendly solution, celebrated for its reduction in carbon footprints and the promise of clean, renewable energy. However, this paper challenges the prevailing narrative, shedding light on the inconvenient truths surrounding windmill technology. It delves into the environmental and ecological costs of wind farms, which are often overlooked in corporate reports and policy discussions. These costs include the disruption of local ecosystems, health issues for nearby residents, resource-intensive manufacturing processes, and the unreliability of wind power as an energy source. The paper calls for a more balanced assessment of wind energy's impact on the environment and urges the implementation of stronger regulations and a cautious approach to the widespread deployment of wind turbines. In doing so, it underscores the importance of preserving the natural world alongside our pursuit of sustainable energy solutions.

A frequent and possibly fatal kind of venous thromboembolic illness is pulmonary embolism (PE). It is a significant issue for public health. A typical diagnosis as a primary care in an emergency room is pulmonary embolism (PE). Additionally, it makes up a sizable portion of the patients admitted to hospital wards. In selected low-risk individuals with acute PE, there is mounting evidence that outpatient therapy, or treatment without hospitalization, is practical, safe, and efficient. PE patients may be risk-classified and given an early release from the emergency department. As a result, there are more hospital beds available for other patients, which lowers treatment expenses for the healthcare system. There is growing support for the outpatient care of low-risk, hemo-dynamically stable patients with acute symptomatic pulmonary embolism (PE).  There is assistance in identifying patients who are eligible for outpatient (primary) care. This move has been made easier by the accessibility and simplicity of direct oral anticoagulants. Acute PE is currently mostly treated with direct, non-vitamin K-dependent oral anticoagulants. In comparison to vitamin K antagonists, they have been demonstrated to simplify initial and prolonged anticoagulation regimes while lowering the risk of bleeding. In this consensus practice document, we present a thorough analysis of primary care in the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of acute PE.

Background: The maintenance and development of hypertension are fundamentally dependent on renal sympathetic hyperactivity. Through regulation of the renal sympathetic nerves, catheter-based renal sympathetic denervation has been demonstrated to dramatically lower blood pressure (BP) in patients with resistant hypertension (systolic blood pressure 160 mm Hg on three or more antihypertensive medicines, including a diuretic). This study assessed a catheter-based ultrasound device of the next generation intended to maximize nerve coverage using circumferential ultrasound energy. This study's objective is to describe the results of renal denervation (RDN) in patients with resistant hypertension using a catheter-based ultrasonography device to measure blood pressure and safety. A potential new non-pharmacological therapy for resistant hypertension is renal denervation.
Method: PubMed, Web of Science, Science Direct, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar were thoroughly searched for relevant material. Throughout this meticulous process, the Rayyan QRCI was used.
Results: our review included 10 studies with parameters including the period of study, age range of patients, office blood pressure, ambulatory blood pressure and the used approach. Clinical studies are required to determine whether this method is effective in treating this resistant hypertension.
Conclusion: In individuals with resistant hypertension, catheter-based ultrasound renal denervation significantly and persistently lowers blood pressure and has no negative effects on renal function or renal artery anatomy.

Multiple blood transfusions lead to an excess iron buildup in the body's organs, which damages the organs. This systematic review investigated the recently published approaches to manage transfusion-induced iron overload. PubMed, SCOPUS, Web of Science, Science Direct, and Cochrane Library were systematically searched to include the relevant literature. Rayyan QRCI was used throughout this systematic approach. Our results included eleven studies with a total of 1635 patients diagnosed with transfusional iron overload. Iron excess is a major challenge in patients with chronic anemia who require frequent transfusions. Evidence from numerous clinical trials has shown that giving chelation therapy to individuals with transfusion-induced iron overload clearly reduced their iron burden and improved organ function. We found that Amlodipine, lupatercept, and chelating agents are safe and effective options for transfusion dependant thalassemia (TDT) patients. Additionally, Amlodipine or lupatercept combined with chelating agents are more efficient in lowering serum ferritin and o regularly drank green tea experienced significant reductions in iron accumulation.  Deferiprone (DFP) has provided sickle cell disease (SCD) patients with a new therapeutic choice. The effects of this oral iron chelator were equivalent to those of deferoxamine (DFX) given subcutaneously in terms of reducing transfusional iron excess. In line with what had previously been seen in thalassemia syndrome patients, DFP showed a tolerable safety profile.

Background: Calorie restriction (CR) is the gold standard of treatment for treating overweight and obesity. Although this method results in only moderate weight reduction, weight rebound is frequent and CR adherence gradually deteriorates over time. IMF, or intermittent fasting, is a different nutritional approach, reduces calorie consumption. The study's objective is to assess the efficacy of continuous calorie restriction (CCR) with intermittent fasting in treating overweight and obese individuals.
Methods: To find the pertinent literature, PubMed, Web of Science, Science Direct, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar were exhaustively searched. The Rayyan QRCI was applied throughout this methodical procedure.
Results: our review included eight studies with parameters including body mass index (BMI), age, insulin resistance, eating behavior and sleep quality. The studies investigated the role of intermittent fasting compared to the role of calorie restriction in losing weight.
Conclusion: Our findings imply that CR positively improves metabolic parameters, assisting individuals who are insulin resistant and pre-diabetic. Additionally, IMF can improve health and cellular resilience to illness without calorie restriction and without causing weight loss. In terms of BMI, there was no discernible difference between IMF and CR. These results imply that IMF could be effective like CR for weight reduction.

All subjects may be taught well, but a big part of it is how the instructor uses technology to make learning beneficial for the learners. This study investigated the extent to which digital learning technologies’ usage influences the teaching effectiveness of business educators in Nigeria’s South-South universities. Two specific objectives were established and two null hypotheses were tested. The level of significance was set at 0.05. Relevant literature was reviewed. The study adopted a predictive correctional research design. The study participants were 170 business educators from twelve universities in South-South Nigeria. No sample was drawn because the population was manageable. Data was generated using a 24-item Likert scale questionnaire called the "Digital Learning Technologies and Teaching Effectiveness Questionnaire (DLTTEQ). Seven experts from the University of Calabar validated the DLTTEQ. The study’s assumptions were evaluated using simple linear regression. The use of virtual reality simulation and teleconferencing by business educators in Nigeria’s South-South universities was found to significantly predict their teaching effectiveness. Sequel to the research findings, the study recommends that the national government should foster simulation-based education by building a digital learning environment appropriate for Business Education. The insights of this study call for the implementation of international best practices in order to help learners and instructors transition from digital immigrants to electronic natives.

Published: November 2023

This research aims to identify seven cultural regions that can contribute to the development of contemporary and future Papua, while adhering to the principles of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. This study combines the theory of "Bhinneka Tunggal Ika" and the concept of a cultural approach, with a focus on the threefold spirit of Melanesian brotherhood among the people of Papua. The integration of these two conceptual frameworks is crucial in preserving the nation's existence amidst its diverse population. The goal of this effort is to ensure answers and provide recommendations for a comprehensive development plan for the expansion of the Papua Province. The research prioritizes the use of qualitative data through interviews with informants and respondents. The aim is to explore the potential consequences of regional expansion when approached through a comprehensive cultural lens, based on anthropological and sociological perspectives influenced by Papuan and Melanesian studies. This research is based on the theoretical framework of "Structuralist Anthropology" developed by the Leiden School of Anthropology, with a specific focus on the concept of regionalism known as FoS (Field of Anthropological). The findings of this research examine a comprehensive plan to expand to seven provinces in Papua. From a cultural perspective, this approach is considered a more appropriate solution for realizing a prosperous future for Papua, with the ultimate goal of improving the well-being of its population within the framework of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia.

Recombinant protein expression of Magnaporthe oryzae MGG06069 and its polysaccharide monooxygenase domain in Escherichia coli
Authors: Bui Chinh Cong , Ho Giap Ta , Vu Van Van
Published: November 2023

MGG06069 is a polysaccharide monooxygenase protein that originated from the fungusthat causes rice blast, Magnaporthe oryzae. It has the potential to speed up thecellulolysis process, which can be beneficial for industry. In this study, the full-lengthMGG06069 protein and its polysaccharide monooxygenase domain were expressed inEscherichia coli in order to produce recombinant proteins on a large scale for furtherenzymatic experiment. It was shown that the amount of the recombinant polysaccharidemonooxygenase domain protein was much higher compared to that of the full-lengthprotein. In addition, only one band of expected size was obtained for the recombinantPMO domain protein. These results suggest the purified polysaccharidemonooxygenase domain of MGG06069 that can be used for enzymatic assaysin the future.® 2022 Journal of Science and Technology - NTTU

Published: November 2023

The research culture is a basic element for higher institutions at the global level, especially in social sciences subjects’ research as a compulsory subject taught in the universities of Pakistan. Through this study, it has been tried to measure the students’ and teachers’ attitudes towards research by using a semantic differential scale. The survey research design was used to collect data and to find the attitudes of the students and teachers. Two universities were selected as the population of the research. One university was selected from the public sector, and another from the private sector. From the overall population, two fifty (250) students (male & female) and one fifty (150) teachers (male & female) were selected as the sample of the research. The findings revealed that there was a statistically significant difference between the attitudes of teachers and students toward research.. Furthermore, the results of the study recommended that teachers are the reflection of their students, and positive and productive attitudes of teachers foster students towards research. The content writing and research attitude are mutually interlinked. In this way, efforts should be needed to create reading and investigating behaviours among university students to create a research environment.

Dentre os diversos fatores limitantes a produção agrícola há o estresse salino, fator que tem despertado a atenção de pesquisadores na busca por genótipos tolerantes diante do aumento de áreas agrícolas com solos salinos ou em processo de salinização. Visando avaliar genótipos de quiabeiro em diferentes níveis de salinidade realizou-se o presente estudo, no qual cinco genótipos de quiabeiro (Quiabel, Speedy, Santa Cruz, Valença e IAC Midori) e quatro níveis de salinidade (S1 - 0,6 (testemunha); S2 – 2,5; S3 – 5,0 e S4 – 7,5 dS m-1) foram avaliados. O experimento foi conduzido no delineamento inteiramente casualizado em esquema fatorial, composto por cinco genótipos submetidos a quatro níveis de salinidade, compondo 20 tratamentos em três repetições, totalizando 60 parcelas experimentais. Os genótipos foram semeados em bandejas de poliestireno, sendo realizado o transplante das mudas para vasos de 11L contendo solo. As irrigações com as soluções salinas eram realizadas diariamente, conforme cada tratamento. Após 60 dias da semeadura, as plantas foram coletadas e as variáveis biométricas foram analisadas. Houve interação significativa entre os fatores para as variáveis número de frutos, massa seca dos frutos e massa seca da parte aérea. Quanto a fonte de variação genótipos, houve diferença significativa para todas as variáveis. E quanto a fonte de variação níveis de salinidade, houve diferenças significativas, em que o maior nível expressou os menores resultados para as variáveis. Os genótipos apresentaram boa tolerância até o nível de 5,0 dS m-1, com o Quiabel demonstrando os piores resultados para as variáveis analisadas, e o Valença, maior estabilidade e melhor desempenho.
The Personal as Political: A Study in Nandini Sahu’s Sita (A Poem)
Authors: Sagar Kumar Sharma
Published: October 2023

When authors attempt to pen down their ideas on an issue relevant to the society, their own social contexts are bound to seep in into their texts, with or without their awareness of the same. In that sense, all writing is political. Applying this dictum of the cultural materialists, this paper seeks, among other things, to study the meeting points of the personal and political in Nandini Sahu’s groundbreaking epic-scale Sita (A Poem). Focus will be on the analysis of the text’s subversive potential, the demythification of Sita--the heroine of the epic Ramayana. How well Nandini Sahu’s ‘Sita’ transcends the boundaries of time and space in the process of claiming her rightful identity will be addressed herein. The texts and contexts of Sita have always been a matter of great critical debate; critics, at all times, have constructed and deconstructed this character according to their own politics. Sita–the character from Sage Valmiki’s Ramayana–is at once simple and complex. Patriarchy cleverly pushes to the sub-texts the ‘behind-the-curtain’ politics associated with the multiple texts, with almost singular narrative, that claim to be all faithful renditions of Sita’s story. Her complexity can be understood only when a deeper reading of such sub-texts is properly presented. It should be interesting to find out how Sahu’s narrative falls in or out of line with the popular narratives on Sita. And while observing this, the politics of Nandini’s Sita will be attempted to be brought out through this paper.
A Study in Subversive Literature vis-à-vis Sita and Ahalya in the poems of Nandini Sahu
Authors: Pushpa R. Menon
Published: October 2023

The Ramayana and Mahabharata are two timeless sources of inspiration for Indian folk poetry. Writers have attempted to reconnect with the past in an effort to lessen the poison of modernity and to restore aesthetic vitality through myth and folklore by re-reading them in the context of today. The characters have been scrutinized extensively and viewed through the prism of contemporary theories. Examples are Sita and Ahalya from Nandini Sahu. As renowned female figures, Ahalya, Draupadi, Sita, Tara, and Mandodari from the Indian epics Ramayana and Mahabharata are lauded. However, they occasionally experience subordination due to their gender. Although these characters have independent traits, a feminist spark, vigor, and rebellion, patriarchy has doomed them to submission and obedience. Indian epic-based literature frequently serves as a stage for subversive analyses of conventional stories. The values and tenets of an existing system are questioned in subversive literature, which also aims to change the patriarchal institutions and social norms.
‘National Identity’ In Yvonne Vera’s Without A Name – A Study
Authors: P. Kannan
Published: October 2023

Zimbabwean author Yvonne Vera is well known. She was created in Bulawayo. She attended a university in Canada where she studied and earned a master's degree. She was the National Gallery's Director at the time. Why Don't Carve Other Animals? a 1992 publication of short stories, marked the beginning of her creative writing career. After that, she published five books: Nehanda (1993), Without a Name (1994), Under the Tongue (1996), Butterfly Burning (1998), and The Stone Virgins (2002). She also received the Commonwealth Writers Prize for the Africa Region for her book Under the Tongue. Vera frequently discusses the effects of colonial authority on Zimbabwe's ethnic group in her works, as well as the failure of women's hopes to gain Independence. Vera has made an effort to illustrate the colonial tactic of eliminating Zimbabwe's ethnic identity and establishing a colonial identity in Without A Name. Without a Name makes an attempt to analyze how Zimbabwe loses her ethnic name.
Application of the TRIPS score in neonates requiring interhospital transfer
Authors: Carballo Flores Rodrigo
Published: October 2023

With the implementation of neonatal intensive care units and new technologies for comprehensive neonatal care, neonatal survival has improved significantly. These results should always include the possibility of referral to another center, in order to provide or complete more appropriate treatments. Not all problems can be recognized in time to refer the pregnant mother, and many emergencies at birth may occur, making it necessary to transfer the child. A prospective, intervention and cross-sectional study was carried out from July 2020 to July 2021, the universe and sample consisted of 91 neonates who required referral to a more complex center, with the aim of assessing the effectiveness of applying the TRIPS Score (Transport risk index of physiology stability), data were obtained from the patient's medical history, The neonates who required transfer suffered a total loss of stability; this deterioration was greater the lower the weight and gestational age, the greater the distance, the presence of respiratory disorder and the poor transfer conditions. Finally, the research was completed with the creation of a uniform protocol for all the sending centers, in the hope that it will lead to improved transfer conditions and minimize the complications that this procedure entails.
