Inclusive Early Childhood Teacher Education: A Paradigm for Envisioning and Enacting
Authors: Evans Leanne , Joseph Tatiana , Bartlett Maggie , Jozwik Sara 
Published: November 2024

This article describes the processes and timeline of developing our Inclusive Early Childhood Teacher Education Program (IECTE). In doing so, we describe collaborations that have a dynamic unfolding that took place over 10 years and united early childhood education (ECE), early intervention/early childhood special education (EI/ECSE), and bilingual/English as a second language (ESL) programming. Foundational to our collaborative work is the transformation that occurred within these individual areas of teacher education that eventually led us to the evolving paradigm of inclusivity in early childhood education. In our IECTE work we detail our paradigm of critical inclusivity that includes three tenets: (1) a dialogic approach, (2) curriculum revision, (3) student guidance, and (4) mentoring support. We conclude by offering implications for continuous growth through descriptions of radical collaboration and advocacy in inclusive early childhood settings, such as intervention agencies, Head Start programs, childcare centers, community programs, and public schools.

In many parts of the world self-medication is a popular practice to treat some common minor diseases in order to save time and money without realizing side effects of self-medication for the patients. We know ‘Over The Counter’ (OTC) drugs are meant for self-medications but their wrong use due to lack of knowledge about medicines can have grave side-effects on patients. In Kashmir the growth in self-medications in Kashmir can be attributed to urge to self-care, feeling of sympathy towards ill family members, deficiency of health services, economic condition, unawareness and easy availability of drugs in medical shops. To treat minor common diseases like fever, cold, cough, diarrhoea etc patients acquire expert advices from family members, neighbours or strangers about medications. Majority of people do not take their illness seriously or avoid Doctor because of busy life, ignoring side effects of self-medication. In Kashmir, it is a common practice in homes to use antibiotics like Co-Amoxyclav 625 and Azithromycin for treating common cold and sharing of prescriptions within the family, using the left over medications for somewhat related symptoms is quite a popular practice. In the present study carried out in Kashmir valley, a survey of the study area was carried out and discussions were held with the elders as well as with medical practitioners. A well-designed validated questionnaire was used to collect the information from 400 youth selected at random from Kashmir on their consent. The data collected from survey was statistically analysed using standard statistical methods. The study revealed that majority of respondents were taking medicine without consulting a Doctor to treat minor ailments. Statistically, it was observed that there was a significant difference in the attitude of male and female respondents towards self medication (P<0.01). The discussion with respondents revealed that they were interested in knowing Islamic ruling about self-medication as in the present world due to lack of patience youth take medicine because of depression and anxiety. Islam allows modern treatment of many diseases like infertility provided it is not against the teaching of Islam and guidance of holy Prophet. Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) taught Muslims to pray more in tough times for attaining peace of mind, relief from pain, anxiety and worries. Finally, it was suggested that everyone should avoid self-medication as much as possible and Government should play its role to avoid the selling of banned medicines on medical shops without Doctors prescription

The potato, being an underground vegetable crop, faces consistent threats from soil- and tuber-borne fungal and bacterial pathogens. Black scurf and stem canker disease caused by the fungal pathogen Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn is a critical global concern in the potato cultivation system. In this study, we evaluated the disease mitigation potential of five systemic acquired resistance-inducing chemicals viz., salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, β-aminobutyric acid, γ-aminobutyric acid and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Two common methods, tuber dipping and foliar spray, were utilized in this experiment to evaluate pathogen inhibition on inoculated tubers. The results revealed that all the systemic acquired resistance inducing chemicals were effective in disease suppression in a concentration-dependent manner compared to an inoculated control. Significant differences (P < 0.005) were evident among the various treatment combinations, with salicylic acid being the most effective in alleviating black scurf disease. Maximum reduction in disease incidence compared to the control was observed with salicylic acid (57.89% and 73.68%), followed by jasmonic acid (52.63% and 65.78%) and H2O2 (49.99% and 60.52%) under the tuber dipping treatment combinations. Whereas, in the foliar application, the maximum reduction in disease incidence compared to the control was observed with salicylic acid (44.73 and 63.15%), followed by jasmonic acid (42.10 and 60.52%) and H2O2 (39.46 and 52.63%). The tuber dipping treatments were significantly more efficacious (P < 0.005) compared to foliar spray for all treatment combinations. The biochemical analysis of defense-related enzymes and metabolites demonstrated the induced resistance activation under these treatments. The activity of peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase, and phenyl ammonia-lyase was significantly higher in treated tubers as compared to inoculated and uninoculated control. The total phenol content was also elevated in treated tubers as compared to the respective control. Altogether, these resistance-inducing chemicals can be successfully included in integrated disease management programs.

Published: November 2024

Purpose
Systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) was an indicator which could reflect immune response and systemic inflammation. We aim to explore the relationship between SII and diabetic nephropathy (DN).

Methods
SII was calculated as neutrophil count × platelet count/lymphocyte count. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to evaluate the diagnosis power of SII. Univariate and multivariate logistic analysis were conducted to assess SII as the risk factor for DN. A restricted cubic spline model was carried out to show the nonlinear association between SII and DN.

Results
Two hundred participants were enrolled, with an average age of 56.6 ± 13.4 years; 54% participants were categorized as DN. Spearman association analysis showed SII was positive associated with increased urinary albumin to creatinine ratio and serum creatinine, while negative associated with eGFR and serum albumin. The ROC curve revealed that the maximum area under the curve (AUC) was 0.761 (95% CI, 0.694-0.828, P < 0.001). After univariate and multivariate logistic analysis, SII (OR=1.004, P = 0.002) and serum creatinine (OR=1.146, P < 0.001) were risk factors for the occurrence of DN, while age (OR=0.920, P = 0.011) and serum albumin (OR=0.708, P < 0.001) were protective factors for the occurrence of DN. The restricted cubic spline model showed that there was a significant nonlinear association between DN incidence and continuous SII value when it exceeded 624*10 $\hat {}$ 9/L.

Conclusion
SII is a novel diagnostic biomarker which is independently associated with DN. Further large-scale prospective studies are needed to validate our findings before SII can be considered a reliable diagnostic or prognostic tool for DN.

Poor complementary food and feeding had been shown to increase the morbidity and mortality among under-five children in developing countries in which Nigeria is not exempted. This study aimed at evaluating the Nutrients Composition of Acha -Based complementary food supplemented with soybean and sweet potato flour. Raw materials used for the formulated of the complementary were purchased from Erekesan market in Akure Local Government Area of Ondo State. Five (5) samples were formulated in different ratios of Acha (100:70:60:50:40), Soyabean (20:25:30:35) and Orange flesh sweet potato (10:15:20:25). Samples were subjected to chemical and instrumental analysis in line with standard method. The data obtained were statistically analyzed using ANOVA to test for the significant difference among means (P<0.05) using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS version 22). Finding shows that Moisture, crude fibre, and carbohydrate was significantly (p<0.05) higher in sample Awhile, Sample E was significantly (p<0.05) higher protein (18.42%) and fat (12.40%) compared to other formulated samples. The Moisture, crude fibre, and CHO was significantly (p<0.05) decreases with decreased in the quantity of Acha use in the formulation of the CFs while crude fat, Ash and protein increases with increase in the quantity of soybean incorporated in the formulations. Sample E is significantly (P<0.05) higher in vitamin B1, B3 and B9 compared with sample A. vitamin B1, B3 and B9 increases with increase in the quantity of soybean and OFSP. All the samples have appreciable amount of sodium, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium and potassium but, zinc and iron was low in the entire sample. Sample E was exceptional in all the minerals but significantly (p<0.05) lower in Zinc and iron. The mean sensory scores revealed that sample C was different in after taste, flavour, mouth feel, colour and overall acceptability. The mean scores increase with increase in the proportion of soybean and potato in the formulated complementary food samples in terms of all the sensory attributes tested. The scores showed that sample C had the highest acceptability by the panelists. The complementary foods had improved nutrients that can support optimal nutrition of undernourished children and other older people.

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of seed inoculation with Piriformospora indica and various foliar hormonal treatments in promoting early flowering in fodder rice bean (Vigna umbellata Thunb.), variety Surabhi, conducted at the College of Agriculture, Vellayani. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with ten treatments and three replications. The plot size of 3 m2 was followed in the field experiment.
The experiment assessed the impact of different treatments on flowering and other biometric traits in the leguminous crop. The treatments included untreated control, seed inoculation with Piriformospora indica before sowing and foliar applications of salicylic acid (100 ppm,150 ppm), GA₃ (200 ppm,300 ppm), Paclobutrazol (10 ppm,20 ppm) and KNO₃ (1%,1.5%) at 30 days after sowing (DAS). The results revealed that significant differences were observed among treatments for all thirteen biometric traits measured. Early flowering was recorded in plants treated with salicylic acid @ 100 ppm(65.35 days), followed by GA₃ @ 300 ppm (67.72 days), salicylic acid @ 150 ppm (67.81 days), and Paclobutrazol @ 10 ppm (69.87 days), whereas the control flowered last (80.96 days. The findings suggest that the application of specific concentrations of growth regulators and seed inoculation with P.indica can effectively reduce the time to flowering, enhancing the potential for improved seed production in fodder rice bean.

The objective of the current study was to determine the type and degree of genetic diversity between traits that contribute to seed yield. Using a Randomized Block Design with two replications, 36 sesame genotypes were assessed for 10 distinct features at the Botany section farm, College of Agriculture, Dhule, in the summer of 2023. The genotypes were divided into fourteen clusters based on the D2 value. In addition to providing options for achieving a high heterotic effect and upgrading the base population, inter-crossing between them would also restore suitable transgressive segregants and a wide range of diversity in succeeding generations. The study found that local germplasm viz., JLS-1414-21-2 for number of primary branches per plant, number of seeds per capsule, oil content (%), and seed yield, and TS-14 for plant height, number of primary branches, number of capsules per plant, number of seeds per capsule, 1000 seed weight, and seed yield per plant found superior and can be used for further breeding methodologies. Genotypes JLT-408 and AVTS-2001 were shown to be superior for protein content, DS-10 for earliness, TKG-22 for oil content, TS-16 for earliness, and DLS-12 for plant height, number of capsules per plant, and 1000 seed weight.

AbstractBackgroundWhile four‐dimensional computed tomography (4DCT) is extensively used in adults, reluctance remains to use 4DCT in children. Day‐to‐day (interfractional) variability and irregular respiration (intrafractional variability) have shown to be limiting factors of 4DCT effectiveness in adults. In order to evaluate 4DCT applicability in children, the purpose of this study is to quantify inter‐ and intrafractional variability of respiratory motion in children and adults. The pooled analysis enables a solid comparison to reveal if 4DCT application for planning purposes in children could be valid.Methods/materialsWe retrospectively included 90 patients (45 children and 45 adults), for whom the diaphragm was visible on abdominal/thoracic free‐breathing cone beam CTs (480 pediatric, 524 adult CBCTs). For each CBCT, the cranial–caudal position of end‐exhale and end‐inhale positions of the right diaphragm dome were manually selected in the projection images. The difference in position between both phases defines the amplitude. Cycle time equaled inspiratory plus expiratory time. We analyzed the variability of the inter‐ and intrafractional respiratory‐induced diaphragm motion.ResultsRanges of respiratory motion characteristics were large in both children and adults (amplitude: 4–17 vs 5–24 mm, cycle time 2.1–3.9 vs 2.7–6.5 s). The mean amplitude was slightly smaller in children than in adults (10.7 vs 12.3 mm; P = 0.06). Interfractional amplitude variability was statistically significantly smaller in children than in adults (1.4 vs 2.2 mm; P = 0.00). Mean cycle time was statistically significantly shorter in children (2.9 vs 3.6 s; P = 0.00). Additionally, intrafractional cycle time variability was statistically significantly smaller in children (0.5 vs 0.7 s; P = 0.00).ConclusionsOverall variability is smaller in children than in adults, indicating that respiratory motion is more regular in children than in adults. This implies that a single pretreatment 4DCT could be a good representation of daily respiratory motion in children and will be at least equally beneficial for planning purposes as it is in adults.

AbstractCOX20/FAM36A encodes a mitochondrial complex IV assembly factor important for COX2 activation. Only one homozygous COX20 missense mutation has been previously described in two separate consanguineous families. We report four subjects with features that include childhood hypotonia, areflexia, ataxia, dysarthria, dystonia, and sensory neuropathy. Exome sequencing in all four subjects identified the same novel COX20 variants. One variant affected the splice donor site of intron‐one (c.41A>G), while the other variant (c.157+3G>C) affected the splice donor site of intron‐two. cDNA and protein analysis indicated that no full‐length cDNA or protein was generated. These subjects expand the phenotype associated with COX20 deficiency.

Published: November 2018

AbstractA patient with pilomotor seizures post anti‐LGI1 limbic encephalitis, refractory to immunotherapy and anti‐epileptic drugs, was investigated with electroencephalography and magnetoencephalography. Seizures occurred daily (14.9 ± 4.9/day), with catamenial exacerbation, inducible by hyperventilation. Anterior temporal ictal onsets were heralded (by ~15 sec) by high amplitude ipsilateral electromagnetic infraslow activity. The catamenial/ventilatory sensitivity and the infraslow activity (reflecting glial depolarization) suggested an ionic,CO2/pH‐related glioneuronal mechanism. Furosemide decreased seizure frequency by ~33%. Acetazolamide led to immediate seizure freedom, but lost efficacy with daily treatment. A cycling acetazolamide regimen (2 days on, 4 days off) plus low‐dose topiramate maintained >95% reduction (0.5 ± 0.9/day) in seizures.
