<p>L’étude a pour objectif d’examiner l’effet de l’apprentissage par le jeu et les stratégies de régulation des émotions sur l’engagement affectif chez des élèves ivoiriens lors de la période post-transition primaire-secondaire. 40 élèves de milieu défavorisé ayant participé à une activité de soutien à la transition scolaire ont été soumis à deux reprises (avant et après l’intervention) à l’échelle d’engagement affectif d’Archambault et al., (2009). Les stratégies qu’ils utilisent préférentiellement pour réguler leurs émotions dans diverses activités scolaires ont été répertoriées et classées fonctionnelles ou dysfonctionnelles selon leur fonctionnalité adaptative. Les résultats obtenus à l’aide du stata 16 indiquent que la participation aux activités d’apprentissage par le jeu crée un accroissement de l’engagement affectif chez les sujets qui utilisent les stratégies fonctionnelles et permet de ralentir le désengagement affectif chez les élèves qui utilisent les stratégies dysfonctionnelles pour réguler leurs émotions. Ces informations pourraient être exploitées par les intervenants dans le cadre de la prévention du décrochage scolaire en milieu défavorisé.</p><p>The aim of the study was to examine the effect of play-based learning and emotion regulation strategies on affective engagement in Ivorian students during the primary-secondary post-transition period. 40 students from disadvantaged backgrounds who had participated in a school transition support activity were tested twice (before and after the intervention) using the affective engagement scale of Archambault et al. (2009). The strategies they prefer to use to regulate their emotions in various school activities were listed and classified as functional or dysfunctional according to their adaptive functionality. The results obtained using the stata 16 indicate that participation in play-based learning activities creates an increase in affective engagement in subjects using functional strategies and slows down affective disengagement in students using dysfunctional emotion regulation strategies. This information could be used by practitioners to prevent school dropout in disadvantaged areas. </p><p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu/0758/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>
CLIMATE CHANGE AND ENVIRONMENTAL DEGRADATION: A SERIOUS THREAT TO GLOBAL SECURITY
Authors: Samiullah Mohammed , Khanum Roufa 
Published: March 2024

Climate change and environmental degradation are significant threats to the survival of humanity. However, existing research focuses on the nexus between climate change and environmental degradation, highlighting the causes that strengthen the relationship. Despite experts expressing strong sentiments about the two phenomena being risks to global security, the assertions have drawn inadequate attention from scholars and practitioners, who prioritize illustrating the causes and impacts of climate change and environmental degradation instead. This narrative review aims to fill the gap by presenting evidence that affirms the theory about climate change and environmental degradation being primary security concerns for contemporary society. Climate change and environmental degradation cause security concerns through threats to military infrastructure and installations, depletion of resources leading to conflicts over disputed claims, and displacement of people, causing migration and refugees. Therefore, mitigating the causes of climate change is the most plausible strategy for reducing the threat to national and global security.<p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/lit/0758/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

The Treatise on Music by Eugenios Voulgaris is a short work of 28 pages that presents his views on the power, virtue, and use of music. The treatise reflects the spirit of the European Enlightenment. Rousseau and ancient Greek philosophers, such as Plato and Aristotle, are the basic sources for Voulgaris' Treatise. His views concern the importance of music on all living organisms, on all aspects of human life, on the praise of God, on education, on work, on intellectual entertainment, on therapy, and on social harmony. Music can also be an indicator of the spiritual and physical state of man. Furthermore, the Treatise on Music highlights the interest that existed at that time among enlightened people in art issues.<p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/soc/0458/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>
Pamana uso pa ba?: Acculturation and the peril of Assimilation to the Surat Mangyan and Ambahan of the Hanunuo-Mangyan of Sitio Calibang, Tanawan and Sinugbuan, Brgy, Panaytayan, Mansalay Oriental Mindoro
Authors: De Guzman Eugene Victoriano 
Published: March 2024

It is a grand narrative that culture yields identity, but what if the acculturation of a particular indigenous group fails to be balanced? Would it be at the edge of cultural assimilation? This account ends to determine the status quo of the Surat Mangyan and Ambahan of the Hanunuo-Mangyan of Sito Calibang, Tanawan, and Sinugbuan, Brgy. Panaytayan, Masalay Oriental Mindoro. Through an Anthropological inquiry, this paper determined the relevance of Surat Mangyan and Ambahan in conducting their rites and in day-to-day parlance among their small-scale community. It even went further to gauge the knowledge of Hanunuo-Mangyan [of the mentioned Sitios] regarding the nature and significance of Surat Mangyan in their cultural identity. As a kind of Anthropological qualitative research, this paper also discussed some characteristics of culture appropriate to explicate the existing condition of Surat Mangyan and Ambahan. Thus, the nature of this piece is both narrative and expository. By analyzing and interpreting, this paper concluded that while the Hanunuo-Mangyan [of the said Sitios] manage to entertain the culture of Tagalog/English language within their culture viz. language (acculturation), there is a possible threat of assimilation of Ambahan and Surat Mangyan since most of the interviewed Hanunuo-Mangyan asserted that Ambahan and Surat Mangy them have inadequate knowledge of on how to conduct such cultural practices among themselves. Yet, they are fully aware of the significance of Ambahan and Surat Mangyan as cultural treasures.

Paracetamol (acetaminophen) is without a doubt one of the most generally utilized drugs around the world. As a non-prescription drug, paracetamol is the norm and first-line treatment for fever and intense agony and is accepted to remain so for a long time to come. Notwithstanding being in clinical use for more than hundred years, the exact system of activity of this recognizable medication stays a secret. The most seasoned and most winning hypothesis on the system of pain relieving and antipyretic activities of paracetamol connects with the restraint of CNS cyclooxygenase (COX) protein exercises, with clashing perspectives on the COX isoenzyme/variation designated by paracetamol and on the idea of the atomic communications with these compounds. Paracetamol has been proposed to specifically hinder COX-2 by functioning as a decreasing specialist, notwithstanding the way that in vitro screens exhibit low power on the hindrance of COX-1 and COX-2. The component of paracetamol activity comprises in restraint of cyclooxygenases (COX-1, COX-2, and COX-3) and contribution toward the finish of cannabinoid framework and serotonergic pathways. Furthermore, paracetamol impacts transient receptor potential (TRP) channels and voltage-gated Kv7 potassium channels and restrains T-type Cav3.2 calcium channels. It additionally applies an effect on L-arginine in the nitric oxide (NO) amalgamation pathway. In any case, not these impacts have been obviously affirmed.

The idea of Personalised Medicine is not new – Doctors have long recognised that different patients react differently to medical interventions because the goal of medicine has always been to treat each patient as an individual. What is new is that paradigmatic advances in science and technology hold out from hope for the creation of targeted therapeutics and tools for determining who will benefit from a medical treatment and who will have negative side effects. Personalised Medicine has made significant advancements in recent years, demonstrating the capability of science to radically advance medical practice. Despite this, the problems of understanding human health and disease remain sobering. The intricate interplay of environmental, genetic, social, and cultural factors affects not just “Who We Are..” but also “What Disease We Are Prone To. ”Fundamental advancements in our comprehension of each of these characteristics, as well as how they interact, will be necessary to realize a genuinely individualized approach to patient-care. Personalised Medicine is something that concerns us all. Our unique viewpoints have an impact on how we interpret this area’s evolution. This section explains the idea of Personalised Medicine as well as various modern definitions and uses of the term.

Authors: Tayal Shivam , Tiwari Pradyumn , Sahu Vinod , Sharma Shivang 
Published: March 2024

Liposomes were discovered by Alec D Bangham in the year 1960.The term liposome means lipid body. They are categorized as a drug delivery system in which drug is targeted to a particular tissue. Liposomes can range from 25nm to 500nm in size. Usually, they have a sphere shape vesicles. They may be having one phospholipid bi- layer or more. They are widely used as drug targeting delivery system because they can penetrate tissues more precisely than free drugs and they have similarity between their lipid bilayer and cell membrane. They are also preferred more because of their drug entrapment efficiency. Liposomes are biocompatible i.e. they are capable to entrap both hydrophilic and lipophilic drug hence they solve the problem of choosing a suitable outer covering layer for the formulation as, they are suitable for both hydrophilic and lipophilic drug molecules. Liposomes are the modern world technology to deliver the drugs to a specific targeted organs or tissue. There exist a lot of methods for preparation of liposomes and they are classified according to their structure and methods of preparation which are discussed in brief in this review article, along with liposome advantages and disadvantages, handling of liposomes, evaluation parameters and liposome applications.
An Overview: Mucoadhesive Nasal In-Situ Gel as Nasal Drug Delivery System
Authors: Gohil Yuvraj Singh J , Patel Ankita 
Published: March 2024

In-situ forming polymeric gel formulations are drug delivery systems that are in solution form before administration in the nasal cavity, but once administered, undergo gelation to form a gel enhancing the flexibility of administration. The gel formation depends on factors like temperature modulation, pH change, presence of ions, and ultraviolet irradiation, from which the drug gets released in a sustained and controlled manner. In recent years, the nasal route has been identified as a promising alternative drug delivery route for systemic therapy. Various nasal formulations show less residence time while Mucoadhesive in situ gel formulations have demonstrated an increase in the residence time in the nasal cavity as well enhancement of the permeation characteristics of the drug will reduce the dosage frequency and it enhance patient compliance. With a brief introduction to nasal drug delivery, in this paper, the use of novel mucoadhesive in situ gels for the intranasal delivery of drugs is reviewed along with methods available for evaluating in situ gels.

Published: March 2024

IntroductionComputed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous drainage is an established method for the treatment of abdominal abscesses. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of drainage of abdominal abscesses with small-bore (6F and 9F) drains.Material and methodsThe analysis of a prospectively maintained database included 135 consecutive patients from a single centre with abdominal or pelvic abscesses, who underwent CT-guided drainage. Procedures were performed using a one-step trocar technique with 6F (40 procedures) or 9F (95 procedures) catheters. Technical success was defined as insertion of the drain into the abscess cavity and aspiration of the fluid sample. Clinical success was defined as resolution of infection without surgical intervention or upsizing of the drain.ResultsThe mean size of abscesses was 77.0 ± 28.8 mm (32-220 mm). Thick fluid was aspirated from 129 collections; 6 collections contained thin fluid. Technical success was achieved in 100% of procedures. Clinical success was achieved in 94.8% of patients. Surgical drainage was necessary in 3.7% of patients and upsizing in 1.5% of patients. Complications of Clavien-Dindo grade III were noted in 2.2% of patients without grade IV or V adverse events. The mean radiation dose in terms of Dose Length Product was 617 ± 467 mGy x cm. The mean procedure time was 28.0 ± 11.3 min.ConclusionsCT-guided drainage of abdominal abscesses with small- and very small-bore drains is usually sufficient to obtain clinical success with a low complication rate in the case of thick fluid collections.
