Authors: Benetti Zavorski Eloel , Márcio Zanoni Eliton , Fin Gracielle , Nodari Júnior Rudy José 
Published: September 2024

To investigate and correlate the relationship between motivational regulation and the fulfilment of basic psychological needs among university students. A total of 329 university students took part in this study. The instruments used to analyze motivational regulation were the Physical Exercise Behaviour Regulation Questionnaire — 3 and the Basic Psychological Needs Satisfaction Scale. The Statistic Package for Social Sciences software was used. Basic psychological needs are positively related to the more internal constructs of motivational regulation (intrinsic and integrated), as well as to the self-determination index. The results show that there is a relationship between the constructs of the self-determination theory, since the higher the levels of satisfaction of basic psychological needs, the greater the more self-determined motivational regulations, favoring positive behavior with regard to physical exercise.
Countering Religious Violence with a Better Theory of Religion Following Nicholas of Cusa
Authors: Riedenauer Markus 
Published: September 2024

Dissent within and among religions can provoke much violence. Nicholas of Cusa encountered this and countered it with a differentiated theory of religion, implicit in his De pace fidei from 1453. I propose four different levels of interpretation: the dominant philosophical approach, inspired by a high trust in the intellect and enlightened by a self-critical epistemology; the anthropological foundation of all religion in the desire for truth, goodness, salvation and peace, in conjunction with the character of the human mind as a living image of the divine mind; the rational hermeneutical interpretation of particular religious ideas and texts in view of a philosophical theology, and finally its reintegration in the perspective of a Christian. This is in line with Cusanus’s epistemological perspectivism and allows for interreligious dialogue from enlightened religious perspectives instead of violence.
Speech Practices of Protest: An Associative Research on Semantics
Authors: Komalova Liliya 
Published: September 2024

The beginning of the 21st century was marked by the emergence of new socio-political movements calling for social change throughout the world. This exacerbated social contradictions and led to increased social tension. Young people, being the category of the population most susceptible to social inequality and social injustice, get actively involved in protest activity. The aim of this research is to identify the current features of the “protest” notion in the minds of Moscow universities’ students. The research is carried out based on free and directed types of associative experiment. The author identified frequent and single verbal associations for the stimulus word protest and stimulus phrase protest is ... that were subsequently grouped into 15 features of the “protest” notion. Two most quantitatively represented features correspond to the interpretation of the word “protest” given in the dictionary by S.I. Ozhegov. Structuring and generalization of the data obtained indicate that within the lexical-semantic field “protest” disagreement is the nuclear associate, ‘presenting one’s position’ is the key feature, the models “noun (center word) + noun / pronoun” and “noun + noun (center word)” are the most productive grammatical means to verbalize associations. The analysis of grammatical patterns has enabled the development of a detailed image of protest as a social action in the minds of informants.
Rethinking the “Conspiracy Crisis”: Use and Misuse of “Conspiracy Theory” Labels After Covid‐19
Authors: Perini Matteo , Van Schie Hein T. 
Published: September 2024

Against the backdrop of the Covid-19 pandemic, this article undertakes a critical evaluation of a series of shortcomings of the view of conspiracy theories that is predominant among scholars and the general public. Reviewing numerous studies on the topic, we critically assess: (a) how justified the claim is that we are in a conspiracy-thinking emergency, (b) how the label of conspiracy theorist can be used strategically to delegitimize heterodox views, and (c) the practical consequences, for academic research and the well-functioning of democracies, of unpopular ideas being labeled as conspiratorial. The empirical sources reviewed here suggest that beliefs in conspiracy theories have not increased over time and are less consequential than commonly believed, even in times of a global pandemic. Instead, the concept of conspiracy theory has become more prevalent and its derogatory connotation evokes a stigma that tilts the playing field against dissenting viewpoints. The stigmatization and political leveraging of this notion, we argue, lead to biases not only in the public discussion on various sensitive topics but also in the academic literature on conspiracy theories themselves. We analyze these academic blind spots in light of the diminishing political diversity in academia and recent perspectives on soft censorship. We propose to complement the research on conspiracy theorists with an analysis of individuals at the opposite end of the spectrum, who are inclined to uncritically trust institutional authorities and are prejudiced against heterodox opinions. Proposed solutions include promoting balanced news coverage, fostering critical thinking through debates, and piercing information bubbles to provide access to diverse perspectives.

Published: September 2024

Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS) is a rare congenital skeletal anomaly characterized by the fusion of cervical vertebrae, often leading to a shortened neck, a low posterior hairline, and restricted neck movement. Despite its infrequency, KFS can present as a complex multisystem disorder including neurological and non-neurological defects, which rarely occur simultaneously. This report presents the case of a 20-year-old male diagnosed with KFS exhibiting basilar invagination, syringomyelia, and spina bifida, resulting in myelopathy and radiculopathy. Diagnostic imaging confirmed multiple vertebral fusions and associated neural tissue abnormalities. Surgical intervention, including spinal decompression, resulted in significant symptom relief. This case underscores the diverse clinical presentations and diagnostic challenges associated with KFS, necessitating a comprehensive approach with multiple imaging modalities for accurate diagnosis and tailored management. Prompt identification and intervention are crucial, particularly in cases of symptomatic anomalies, to prevent neurological decline and optimize patient outcomes. The presence of symptomatic basilar invagination underscores the importance of timely surgical intervention to prevent future neurological complications

Published: September 2024

: Pseudoexfoliation syndrome, also known as PEX 1, is a systemic micro fibrillopathy associated with ageing that is brought on by the gradual buildup of extracellular white and grey matter on various ocular and extra ocular structures. It is deposited in extra-ocular tissues such the heart, blood vessels, meninges, liver, and lungs. Numerous investigations have shown a connection between PEX and glaucoma. A person with PEX is typically thought to be at risk for acquiring glaucoma, and vice versa.Atherosclerosis is facilitated by dyslipidemia, which is an increase in plasma cholesterol, triglycerides (TGs), or both, or a low HDL level. A potential risk factor for the progression of cardiovascular disease is dyslipidemia. Numerous investigations have discovered abnormal lipid profiles in pseudoexfoliation syndrome patients, including elevated levels of triglycerides, cholesterol, and LDL. Due to the straight association between lipid levels, atherosclerosis, and cardiovascular risk, patients with PEX are shown to be at an elevated risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events.To study the correlation between dyslipidemia and pseudoexfoliation syndrome in patients above 50 years of age and compare it with age matched controls.This case control study was conducted from November 2020 to November 2022 at SKIMS Medical College and Hospital, Srinagar and included 150 patients with PEX above 50 years of age and compared with age matched controls. In this study mean total cholesterol among cases was 176.88±34.76 mg/dl versus 172.94±51.51 mg/dl in controls. P-value for total cholesterol was statistically insignificant (0.438). Mean triglyceride level among cases was 180.11±54.70 mg/dl while as mean triglyceride level among controls was 163.14±46.21 mg/dl and P-value was found to be statistically significant. Mean LDL level among cases was 104.57±32.80 mg/dl while as in controls mean was 82.70±27.60 mg/dl. P-value for LDL levels was found to be statistically significant. Mean HDL levels among cases was found to be 41.93±8.94 mg/dl while as in controls mean was 39.67±13.73 mg/dl. P-value for HDL levels was statistically insignificant (0.09). Mean VLDL levels among cases was found to be 25.34±19.52 mg/dl while as in controls mean was 27.66±14.36mg/dl. P-value for VLDL levels was statistically insignificant (0.242).There is significant correlation between dyslipidemia and pseudoexfoliation syndrome in patients above 50 years of age.

The purpose of this study was to explore the behavioral problems among children in Al-Kharj City, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, due COVID-19 lockdown. The study sample consisted of 154 children, 83 boys and 71 girls, randomly chosen. The ages of the selected sample population range between 2-6 years. A questionnaire of 36 paragraphs was prepared by the researchers outlining the following dimensions. The results of the study showed the following that the level of behavioral problems resulting from quarantine among children in Al-Kharj city is low, however, there are differences in the behavioral problems of children attributed to the mother's occupation, no differences in the behavioral problems of children due to the age of the child in all dimensions except for “Sleep and emotional problems dimensions” which were in favor of age category (2-6) years. There is also a positive relationship between the children's behavioral problems and the level of the mother's education, while there is no such relationship in the case of the father's education level. Mental health must be supported by implementing the three mental health approaches: developmental, preventive, and curative, especially in times of public crises.

Published: September 2024

Heutagogy in education has emerged as a concept that will support education by giving students the choice of self-determined learning. However, any educational level can incorporate this strategy. The goal of this literature review was to examine the advantages and drawbacks of using the Heutagogy method in education. Out of 123 papers from 2018 to 2022, 28 were extracted using two databases, Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus, while considering inclusion and exclusion parameters. According to the literature study, there are several advantages to using the Heutagogy approach in education, such as improved mentoring skills for the Heutagogy approach, increased self-determined learning among students, and the development of Information and Communication Technology abilities. Subsequently, the Heutagogy approach’s adoption in education does face significant difficulties. Teachers, students, and environmental factors are some of these difficulties. It is intended that this systematic literature evaluation would give educators a better grasp of the extent to which the Heutagogy approach would reshape education.

INTRODUCTION:Globally, studies have reported that many pregnant women often dread the childbirth experience. Its prevalence is higher in developing countries than in the developed countries. It is a problem more common among primigravid women, with consequences for their health and implications for their labor, birth, and postpartum period. Hence, there is a need to assess the level of childbirth fear and birth-related mindset among primigravida attending antenatal clinics in selected hospitals in Ibadan.METHODOLOGY:This study adopted a descriptive cross-sectional design. Two hundred and four primigravid women were selected using a simple random sampling technique. Data were collected with the aid of a questionnaire, and the result was analyzed using SPSS version 25.0.RESULTS:Findings of the study revealed that slightly above half (55.9%) of the respondents had a high level of childbirth fear. Also, majority (52%) of the respondents had a natural birth-related mindset. It further revealed that there is a significant association between age and childbirth fear with apvalue of <.001. Also, there is a significant association between childbirth fear and birth-related mindset with ap-value of <.001.CONCLUSION:The study concluded that there is a high level of childbirth fear among primigravida. It is recommended that there should be an increased focus on the fears of women of all ages toward childbirth. This should include providing tailored sensitive interpersonal care to them at all levels of care.

The use of traditional medicine aims to provide preventive, promotive, curative, and rehabilitative measures against a disease. Self-medication is one of the curative health efforts that is often carried out by the community to prevent the disease they are suffering from, as an act of selecting and using medication without a doctor's prescription to treat disorders and symptoms of disease. This research aims to increase understanding, knowledge, and practice of traditional medicine self-medication. This type of research is observational-quantitative, using a cross-sectional approach, which is a research design to study correlation techniques between risk factors and the factors that influence them. Data collection used questionnaires distributed directly with a sample size of 481 respondents. Descriptive analysis was used to describe the entire research sample data in the form of sociodemographic data, level of knowledge, self-medication, and practice of using traditional medicine. The inferential analysis used is the Spearman rank correlation test to see the relationship between variables. The results of the research show that there is a significant relationship between the level of knowledge of traditional medicine and the practice of using traditional medicine by respondents of (p value=0.001) and r value = 0.146 and there is a significant relationship between knowledge of self-medication and the practice of using traditional medicine of (p value= 0.005) and r value = 0.128 so this research is in the same direction.

Published: September 2024

Chemical composition of bottom sediments and pore waters of organic-mineral sediments (sapropel) of Lake Kotokel (Eastern Baikal region) has been studied, based on long drilling cores, 14.5 and 16.5 m. A reduction type of diagenesis has been established, during which destruction of organic matter, transformation of the chemical composition of pore waters and the formation of authigenic minerals occur. Even in the uppermost intervals of sapropel, organic matter is being profoundly transformed and differs significantly in composition from that of bioproducers (plankton). The major role in diagenetic transformations of organic matter belongs to different physiological groups of microorganisms, primarily heterotrophic, amonifying and sulfate-reducing bacteria. During diagenesis, the basic chemical composition of pore waters (HCO3–, SO42–, Cl–, Ca2+, Mg2+, K+, Na+) changes, trace elements (Fe, Mn, Sr, Ba, Pb, As, Co, Ni) redistribute, concentrations of HCO3–, NH4+, PO43− and Si increase; this is caused by destruction of organic matter. In the process of bacterial sulfate reduction in pore waters, the concentration of SO42– decreases along the depth of the section, and in the sediment the proportion of reduced forms of sulfur increases and the isotopic composition of sulphur δ34S changes. Transformation of chemical composition of pore waters and the activity of microorganisms leads to the formation of authigenic pyrite, rhodochrosite, and barite.

Abstract

Mixed outcomes in clinical trials of amyloid β-lowering agents for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) make the identification of alternative candidate molecular targets for therapy a priority. However, limited understanding of molecular pathways mediating the effects of amyloid β on synaptic and cognitive function hampers these efforts. Here, we uncover an ENaC-CaV2.3-PKC-GSK-3β signal transduction pathway that is engaged by oligomeric amyloid β (Aβo) to enhance presynaptic CaV2.1 voltage-gated Ca2+ channel activity, resulting in pathological potentiation of action potential-evoked synaptic vesicle exocytosis. Normalization of presynaptic function by pharmacological CaV2.1 inhibition or genetic CaV2.1 haploinsufficiency rescues Aβo-induced loss of dendritic spines and synaptic long-term potentiation ex vivo, and prevents spine loss, memory deficits and premature mortality in vivo, demonstrating a critical role for enhanced CaV2.1-driven presynaptic exocytosis in synaptic and cognitive decline. These findings reveal a previously unrecognized mechanism driving disease progression in AD, and identify multiple tractable potential therapeutic targets.
Challenges for Fast Radio Bursts as Multi-Messenger Sources from Binary Neutron Star Mergers

Abstract

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration transients from extragalactic sources, with their origins remaining a topic of active debate. Among the proposed progenitors, binary neutron star (BNS) mergers are compelling candidates for some non-repeating FRBs. However, associating FRBs with BNS mergers cannot be based solely on low chance coincidence probability. This study delineates necessary criteria for associating FRBs with BNS mergers, focusing on the post-merger ejecta environment. To underscore the significance of these criteria, we scrutinise the proposed association between GW190425 and FRB20190425A, considering the requirement for the FRB signal to traverse the dense merger ejecta without significant attenuation to remain detectable at 400 MHz. Our investigation reveals that if the FRB is linked to the gravitational wave event, the GW data support a highly off-axis configuration, with a probability of the BNS merger viewing angle p(θv > 30 degrees) being approximately 99.99%. This strongly excludes an on-axis system, which is required for this FRB to be detectable. We also find far-away FRB emission models inadequate to explain the FRB-GW connection. Thus, we conclude that GW190425 is not related to FRB20190425A. We discuss the implications for future multi-messenger observations, suggesting that BNS merger remnants are unlikely to account for more than 1% of FRB sources. This finding implies that short gamma-ray bursts should not be used to explain the global characteristics of the FRB host population.
