Myostatin (MSTN) gene plays a key role in the regulation of myogenesis. This study focused on the relative and differential expression of MSTN gene in Nigerian locally adapted and exotic turkeys. A total of two hundred turkeys comprising one hundred and fifty Nigerian locally adapted (fifty each of black, lavender and white colour variants) and fifty Hybrid converter (exotic) day-old poults were used for this study. The total RNA in liver, breast and thigh muscle tissues was extracted at six weeks (grower stage) and sixteen weeks (finisher stage) of age. The cycle threshold (CT), delta CT and relative expression (R) values of MSTN gene in Nigerian locally adapted and exotic turkeys were analyzed by real-time PCR and calculated using 2-△△Ct. The highest (p<0.05) ΔCT (12.82) and R (1.38) were respectively found in the breast and liver tissues of local black turkey at 6 weeks while the highest (p<0.05) ΔCT (10.60) and R (1.24) of MSTN gene were obtained from the breast and liver tissues of exotic turkey at 16 weeks. Generally, there was reduction in relative expression at finisher phase in the breast and thigh tissues of exotic and Nigerian locally adapted (black and lavender plumage variants) turkeys. This expression pattern provided useful information on the genetic basis for growth variation in exotic and Nigerian locally adapted turkeys and could be employed for genetic improvement of Nigeria locally adapted turkeys in a short period of time.

The environment of the animal certainly has definite effect on its physiology. The assessment of these effects requires the measure of haematological indices. Hence this experiment was designed to studythe effect of wood shaving depths on some haematological indices of Ross-308 grower broilerchickens. The four weeks old, one hundred and twenty (120) grower broiler chickens used for thisstudy were randomly allotted by weight to four treatments of three replicates each, comprising of ten birds per replicate. The experiment was set in a completely randomized design. Feed and water were administered ad-lib. At the end of the experimental period of four weeks, three birds were selected from treatments; one per replicate and sacrificed. Blood was collected from the severed jugular; 3mls each into EDTA and EDTA free bottles for each bird. Samples in the EDTA bottles were used to evaluate PCV, Hb, RBC, WBC, and the erythrocytic indices; MCV, MCH and MCHC were calculated. Serum samples were aspirated from the EDTA free bottles for the analysis of total protein, albumin, glucose, creatinine, total cholesterol and triglyceride. The result of the study showed that the means of Hb, MCHC, ALT, total cholesterol and triglyceride vary significantly (p<0.05) among the treatments while means of all other indices were not significantly (p>0.05) different. It was observed in this study that Hb, MCHC and triglyceride concentration were influenced by litter depth.

Fertility of the Post-partum period in dairy cattle is negatively influenced by the incidence of anoestrus. This condition is characterized by the absence of eostrus behaviour which may be due tophysiologic or pathologic factors. This study therefore, was aimed to compare the serum profiles of follicle stimulating hormorne (FSH), luteinising hormone (LH) and progesterone (P4) in response to the administration of two doses of gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH, Lecirelin®) in combination with prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2α, Synchromate®) ovsynch protocol in apparently healthy, post-partum anestrous Friesian x Bunaji cows. Fifteen (n=15) animals were randomly divided into three groups and treated as follows: Group I (n=5) animals (control); Group II (n=5) animals received ovsynch 50 µg GnRH treatment; Group III (n=5) animals received 100 µg GnRH ovsynch treatment. Blood samples were collected at 15 to 30 minutes intervals for 6 hours to determine serum concentration of FSH and LH and once daily for 12 days after the injection of the first GnRH to determinate the concentration of plasma P4 using Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay kits. Peak values of FSH and LH were significantly (p<0.05) different on days 0 and 9.The plasma P4 levels increased among treated cows following injection of GnRH reaching a peak on day 7 compared to the control group. It was therefore concluded that the ovsynch protocol at the dosages indicated enhanced FSH, LH and P4 profiles compared to control cows and could initiate the onset of ovarian activity in the post-partum anoestrus Friesian x Bunaji cows.

Published: December 2024

Low back pain (LBP) is estimated to affect 90% of the global population and is considered the most common reason for functional disability worldwide. The objective of the present study was to measure the severity of back pain according to the visual analog scale (VAS), to identify the prevalence of LBP among bank workers, and to determine the primary risk factors of low back pain among bank workers. This study was submitted to and approved by the Institutional Research Committee (IRC) - NCS University System, Islamabad, Pakistan. A quantitative, cross-sectional research design was employed in this study. Data were only collected from those participants, who were willing and met our inclusion criteria after approval from the graduate committee of the NCS- University system. Before the collection of data, permission was taken from the respective participants. Conveniently 405 participants among the bank workers were collected from various banks in Peshawar, Pakistan. The instruments used include a direct interview, a body discomfort assessment tool that consists of a VAS) and a questionnaire. Data was collected by mixed type questionnaire and confidentiality of information and voluntary participation were ensured by the researcher. Data were numerically coded and captured in Excel, using an SPSS 25 version program. The study's findings provide a baseline of information about the prevalence of back pain among bank workers. It was found that 65.6% of the workers had experienced LBP, with males (80.7%) being more vulnerable than females (19.3%). The most affected age range was 25-38 years, which constitutes the largest proportion of the workforce. This high prevalence in such a significant age group could negatively impact a company's productivity. The study also revealed that the prevalence of back pain was highest among those with job experience of more than three years (69.9%), followed by those with 1-2 years of experience (23.3%), and the least among those with less than one year of experience (6.8%).

The mechanisms by which the active compounds of Brachiaria ruziziensis R. Germ & C.M. Evrard are phytotoxic to the weed species Euphorbia heterophylla L. were examined. The respiratory activities of root apices and isolated mitochondria, the activities of antioxidant enzymes and the morphology of roots under the influence of exogenous phytohormones were evaluated. The effects of the butanolic fraction (BF) from B. ruziziensis were tested at 250 to 1000 µg mL-1. The BF stimulated the respiratory activity of roots, partially due to an increment in the alternate oxidase pathways. In isolated mitochondria the BF inhibited the respiration coupled to ADP phosphorylation. The activity of catalase and glutathione reductase in roots were higher than in the control condition, but in contrast, the activities of superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase, glutathione peroxidase and peroxidase were reduced. The roots of E. heterophylla grown in the presence of 1000 µg mL-1 were wider and shorter than those of controls. There was also an enhanced root hair development. Exogenous application of 8 nM indole acetic acid and 8 nM naftal acetic acid did not rescue the normal characteristics of roots. Abscisic acid (ABA) at 0.1 µM concentration caused similar changes to those ones caused by the BF. Cyto-histological observations of the longitudinal sections of roots showed reduction in the root cap region and an increased in the elongation zone. The whole of the data suggested that an elevation of ABA content could be implicated in the inhibitory action of the active compounds of the B. ruziziensis in E. heterophylla seedlings.

Medir e interpretar dados é fundamental para apoiar a tomada de decisões. Entretanto, ainda hoje há empresas que deixam de monitorar seus resultados, e não sabem o que medir ou utilizam Sistemas de medição de desempenho (SMD) tão complexos que perdem o foco no que realmente importa, dificultando o processo decisório. O presente trabalho tem como proposta a aplicação da abordagem Value Focused Thinking (VFT) para identificar os principais critérios de desempenho e a construção de indicadores utilizando a ferramenta Power BI em uma empresa de peças agrícolas. Por meio de um brainstorming com stakeholders, aplicando o VFT, foram construídas a hierarquia de objetivos e a rede, que possibilitaram a identificação dos critérios de desempenho/atributos mensuráveis em. Após a identificação dos objetivos, foi desenvolvido um dashboard no Power BI, inicialmente focado em um único objetivo fundamental como piloto. A integração do VFT e do Power BI possibilitou a construção de um SMD em função das necessidades e visões dos stakeholders envolvidos, o que fortalece a cultura organizacional, alinhando métricas e ações aos valores e objetivos da empresa.

REFLEXÕES SOBRE A EDUCAÇÃO PARA MORTE NO CONTEXTO ESCOLAR: UMA REVISÃO INTEGRATIVA DA LITERATURA
Authors: De Almeida Adriana Henemann , Quadros Silvia Cristina de Oliveira 
Published: December 2024

Although it is universally inevitable, death is one of the most avoided topics in most cultures today and thus has become a forbidden subject and distanced from the nature with which it should be treated. Within this context, the school has a fundamental role in demystifying the subject and opening dialogue with students and teachers on the subject, promoting the integral development of human beings in formation. The initial idea of this work is to explore authors who debate the theme, seeking the historical part that precedes the common sense of mystifying the subject, arriving at results that reveal the current school scenario and its role in changing the reference. The initial research was carried out using an integrative literature review, using analysis of research and studies on the educational aspects of death and mourning and which allowed to identify the theme in scientific publications and specific literature in the last five years (2019-2023), as well as to analyze future trends in the educational field for this subject. For this purpose, the electronic databases Education Resources Information Center (ERIC), Capes and Scielo Journals were used, using an integrated method with the following descriptors: child mourning, education for death, mourning at school, school and mourning, in English and Portuguese. From the data collection, 347 articles were found, 21 of which were used to study this theme. However, it was observed that there are still few studies on the theme of education for death, especially in Brazil.
Die Vereinbarkeit „religiöser Paralleljustiz“ mit den Gleichheitssätzen nach Art. 3 GG
Authors: Brodersen Carsten 
Published: December 2024

Der Autor untersucht, ob die „religiöse Paralleljustiz“ mit den Gleichheitssätzen des Grundgesetzes vereinbar ist. Im Fokus stehen informelle Verfahren, in denen sogenannte Friedensrichter Entscheidungen in familienrechtlichen Angelegenheiten wie Ehe- und Unterhaltsfragen treffen. Es wird der Vorwurf erhoben, dass Frauen dabei systematisch benachteiligt werden.

Die zentrale Frage ist, ob die Entscheidungen im Rahmen dieser informellen Schlichtungen einen Verstoß gegen den besonderen Gleichheitssatz nach Art. 3 Abs. 2 GG darstellen. Auf Grundlage des aktuellen empirischen Erkenntnisstandes beleuchtet der Autor die Defizite in der Geschlechtergleichberechtigung und analysiert, inwieweit die Gleichheitssätze im Privatrechtsverkehr Anwendung finden und welche Rolle die Staatsgewalten dabei einnehmen könnten.

Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt der Untersuchung ist die Frage, ob staatliche Maßnahmen ihrerseits die Gleichheitsrechte der Beteiligten im Sinne von Art. 3 Abs. 3 S. 1 GG verletzen könnten, insbesondere wenn diese aus religiösen Motiven im Sinne von Art. 4 Abs. 1, 2 GG an den informellen Verfahren teilnehmen.

Abschließend wird erörtert, wie bei tatsächlich religiös motivierten informellen Streitschlichtungen die praktische Konkordanz zwischen den betroffenen Grundrechtspositionen hergestellt werden kann.

Published: December 2024

Introduction Women’s decision making is one of the important indicators of maternal health which directly influence their utilization of antenatal care services resulting on reduction maternal morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to find out the decision making status regarding antenatal care among women.
MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted among 180 antenatal women of third trimester from Gynae/Obs OPD of Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital. Non-probability purposive sampling technique was adopted. Data was collected by using semi-structure interview questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistic and inferential statistics using chi square and fisher’s exact test.
ResultsFindings of this study clearly explain medium level of decision making in large number of respondents. More than two-thirds research participant (123, 68.3%) had medium level of decision making on antenatal care, whereas few respondents (30, 16.7%) had high level of decision making. The study revealed that there was statistical association of level of decision making with women’s age (p=0.009), type of family (p=0.01), duration of marriage (p=0.002), economic status (p=0.009), education (p=0.007) and number of children (< p=0.001).
ConclusionFew of the antenatal women have high level of decision-making status regarding their antenatal care. Furthermore, the lowest level of decision making was observed concerning on autonomy in financial matter. Thus the importance of advocacy for promoting women’s decision-making status in our context is necessary.
