Authors: Rivera  Santacruz Alex Adrian , Anaya  Barrios Luz  Estella 
Published: February 2024

El presente artículo se enfoca en la necesidad de diseñar una propuesta pedagógicas transformadoras que impliquen el uso de estrategias para el desarrollo de habilidades sociales en educación como alternativa innovadora para lograr mejores competencias escolares en estudiantes de centros rurales del municipio de Cerete, frente a la ausencia de prácticas pedagógicas pertinentes, acordes con sus destrezas y necesidades de aprendizaje, alejadas de la realidad acompañadas de una escasa formación docente y recursos didácticos apropiados, lo cual se precisó mediante la información obtenida de una entrevista inestructurada aplicada a los docentes de básica primaria en las que se indago en torno a los cuatro dominios: Planeación y preparación de clases, Ambientes para el aprendizaje, Práctica Pedagógica y Flexibilidad y capacidad de respuesta. Los cuales fueron analizadas sobre el quehacer educativo y una encuesta aplicada a los estudiantes, visto desde: el profesor, las clases, y los recursos; también sobre las habilidades escolares desde el rol y relación que asume los estudiantes.
Inverse Compton Emission and Cooling of Relativistic Particles Accelerated at Shear Boundary Layers in Relativistic Jets
Authors: Chand Tej , Böttcher Markus 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Both observational evidence and theoretical considerations from magnetohydrodynamic simulations of jets suggest that the relativistic jets of active galactic nuclei (AGN) are radially stratified, with a fast inner spine surrounded by a slower-moving outer sheath. The resulting relativistic shear layers are a prime candidate for the site of relativistic particle acceleration in the jets of AGNs and gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). In this article, we present outcomes of particle-in-cell simulations of magnetic-field generation and particle acceleration in the relativistic shear boundary layers (SBLs) of jets in AGNs and GRBs. We investigate the effects of inverse Compton cooling on relativistic particles that are accelerated in the SBLs of relativistic jets, including the self-consistent calculation of the radiation spectrum produced by inverse Compton scattering of relativistic electrons in an isotropic external soft photon field. We find that the Compton cooling can be substantial, depending on the characteristic energy (blackbody temperature and energy density) of the external radiation field. The produced Compton emission is highly anisotropic and more strongly beamed along the jet direction than the characteristic 1/Γ pattern expected from intrinsically isotropic emission in the comoving frame of an emission region moving along the jet with a bulk Lorentz factor Γ. We suggest that this may resolve the long-standing problem of the Doppler factor crisis.
The new game of online marketing: How social media influencers drive online repurchase intention through brand trust and customer brand engagement
Authors: Tarabieh Saeed , Gil Ignacio , Galdón Salvador José Luis , Faisal Ahmad AlFraihat Sakher 
Published: February 2024

Purpose: This study examines the impact of social media influencers (SMIs) on online repurchase intentions through brand trust and customer engagement in the cosmetics sector.Design/methodology/approach: The study framework and hypotheses in this paper were tested using a questionnaire survey approach, with the consumer as the unit of analysis. The study’s main target was individuals who purchase cosmetics products through social media platforms. Questionnaire items were created using a measurement scale employed in an earlier study. A Likert scale of seven points, ranging from 1 to 7, was used to grade the questionnaire items. Responses ranged from strong disagreement to strong agreement.Findings: In general, this study revealed that social media influencers have a significant positive direct impact on brand trust, customer brand engagement, and online repurchase intentions. Moreover, social media influencers were the most vital determinant of online repurchase intention, followed by brand trust and customer brand engagement. Moreover, customer brand engagement had a significant positive impact on brand trust. Additionally, brand trust and customer brand engagement impacted significantly and positively on online repurchase intention. The mediation analysis results found that customer brand engagement did not mediate the positive impact of social media influencers on online repurchase intention. Furthermore, it was found that brand trust mediated the positive impact of social media influencers on online repurchase intentions. This study is among the first to offer empirical evidence to demonstrate that social media influencers act as a route to online repurchase intention through brand trust and customer brand engagement.Research limitations/implications: This study has several limitations. The first one is that it was only conducted in one country. Using samples from a single country (Jordan) may produce culture-specific findings that are difficult to generalise across other settings. The second limitation of this study is related to the target population. In this study, researchers surveyed individuals who purchased cosmetics products through social media platforms.Practical implications: As the use of social media rises, social media influencers have an ever-greater impact on customers' online purchase and repurchase intentions, as customers deem influencers to be ideal role models they aim to imitate.Originality/value: The study is highly valuable for marketing strategies, as social media influencers have a powerful impact on effective marketing strategies.
Everyone Is Listening: Podcasts as an Innovative Educational Approach in Graduate Level Education
Authors: Gast Sarah , Shifrin Megan 
Published: February 2024

Background:
Over the past decade, graduate level nursing education has transitioned from synchronous, classroom-based models to hybrid, asynchronous models. This change has increased the amount of screen-time for graduate learners and generated the problem of screen-fatigue. To reduce screen-based learning time, faculty transitioned a didactic critical care course to a podcast-based educational format.

Method:
This pilot study used a pre-course and post-course survey to evaluate the efficacy of podcasts in delivering course content, meeting course objectives, and understanding learners' perceptions of podcasts in education.

Results:
Pre-course and post-course survey data demonstrated that podcasts successfully met course objectives and provided content that was equally or more engaging than screen-based lectures.

Conclusion:

Podcasts can be successfully incorporated into a didactic course as a content delivery modality and are an innovative strategy for engaging adult learners in an asynchronous, distance-friendly format while continuing to meet educational objectives.

Effects of internal limiting membrane peeling versus non-internal limiting membrane peeling during vitrectomy for diabetic tractional retinal detachment on postoperative macular thickness, foveal contour, and formation of epiretinal membranes
Authors: Rashid Ahmed M. , Al Aswad Mahmoud A. , Awadallah Ali K. , Mohamed Mohamed M. 
Published: February 2024

Aim
To investigate the impact of internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling during vitrectomy for diabetic tractional retinal detachment (TRD) on postoperative central macular thickness, foveal contour, and creation or reformation of epiretinal membranes.

Methods
In a randomized trial, patients aged 40–65 years old with TRD were recruited from the outpatient clinic in Suez Canal University Hospital from August 2020 to February 2022. Patients were randomized into two groups: group 1 did vitrectomy with ILM peeling, while group 2 did vitrectomy without ILM peeling. At 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery, optical coherence tomography (OCT) was carried out to investigate the central macular thickness (CMT), foveal contour, and epiretinal membrane’s presence. For categorical variables, the Chi-squared test or Fisher’s exact test was performed, while the Student’s t-test was used to assess differences in continuous data.

Results
Thirty-two patients (16 in each group) completed the required follow-up. There was no significant difference between both groups concerning the affected eye (P=1.00). There was no statistically significant difference regarding the CMT recorded via optical coherence tomography at any point of follow-up in the two groups (P=0.289). Also, there was no statistically significant difference regarding the presence of foveal depression at any point of follow-up in the two groups (P=0.680). On the other hand, the percentage of patients who showed no presence of epiretinal membranes in the ILM peeling group was statistically significant when compared with the non-ILM peeling group (P<0.001).

Conclusions
ILM peeling decreases the incidence of epiretinal membrane proliferation following diabetic vitrectomy.

Published: February 2024

Purpose
To assess the causes and management of low vision in school-age children in Menoufia Governorate.

Patients and methods
This prospective study was made among 140 children with vision impairment aged from 6 to 18 years who came to the low-vision clinic of the Department of Ophthalmology of Menoufia University Hospitals with visual acuity less than 6/18 in the better eye best correction. A complete history was obtained. Complete examination of the anterior and posterior segments was done. Strabismus existence was determined. Refractive errors were measured. Before and after using low-vision aids, near and far visual acuity was measured.

Results
The mean age of patients was 11.94±3.61 years; 76 (54.29%) of the children were males and 64 (45.71%) of the children were females. According to the distribution of the diagnoses, hereditary fundus dystrophies were the most prevalent diagnosis among the children, accounting for 28.57% of diagnoses, followed by albinism (20%). The rehabilitation techniques that were mostly used were telescopic glasses (54.29%) for distant vision, electronic magnifiers (31.43%), and optical magnifiers (20.0%) for near vision. Low-vision devices were shown to significantly improve both near and distant visual acuity.

Conclusions
Visual rehabilitation for school-age children with visual impairment can result in a considerable improvement in both distant and near vision. As a result, pediatricians and ophthalmologists must recommend vision rehabilitation for children with vision impairment.

Published: February 2024

Introduction:
The social restrictions implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic likely influenced children's and adolescent's lifestyles and nutrition. This study sought to assess student dietary quality and physical activity levels during the pandemic, as well as examine their association with overweight risk.

Methods:
Four hundred and fifty-eight students aged 7–12 years old in Karaj, Iran, completed online self-administered questionnaires assessing diet, physical activity, and coronavirus fear. Using Kant's method and the Food Frequency Questionnaire, we obtained diversity scores for five food groups. Data were analyzed using R statistical software. Statistical significance was set at P < 0.05.

Results:
The mean dietary diversity score (DDS) was the lowest for the meat group and highest for the fruit group. A significant inverse relationship was observed between the meat group diversity score and student weight status (P = 0.02). The interaction of coronavirus fear and weight status with the meat group DDS was also significant in multivariate adjustment modeling (P = 0.018). Among overweight students, body mass index had a meaningful negative correlation with physical activity levels (r = −0.018, P = 0.016). In addition, a significant inverse association was detected between coronavirus fear and physical activity in univariate modeling (β = −145.47, 95% confidence interval: −248.81–−42.12, P ≤ 0.006).

Conclusion:
A significant association between coronavirus fear and reductions in physical activity as well as weight gain was observed. The study group also did not demonstrate sufficient dietary diversity. Therefore, we recommend promoting diet variety and physical activity for students as part of health-focused school curricula.

Published: February 2024

Introduction:
Intrinsic capacity (IC) is a multidimensional indicator proposed by the World Health Organization that encompasses mental and physical capacities associated with functional ability. With the help of IC, different pathways of aging can be better understood, and heterogeneity can be captured more effectively. Before IC can be clinically incorporated, it requires valid and usable instruments alongside a comprehensive evaluation of psychometric evidence. Therefore, the present systematic review critically appraised, compared, and summarized the measurement properties of existing IC instruments used by older people.

Methods:
Published studies were searched in seven databases: EMBASE, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and Web of Science, until August 2022. The measurement properties of the IC measures were evaluated using the COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments (COSMIN).

Results:
Of the 582 papers initially identified, 10 studies were eligible for inclusion. Seven instruments were classified as five-domain measures, and three as more than five-domain measures. No instrument assessed all nine criteria in the psychometric properties evaluation outlined by COSMIN. The most reported psychometric properties were construct validity (n = 8), measurement invariance (n = 8), and structural validity (n = 7). There was underreporting of content validity, reliability, and measurement error.

Conclusion:
The present review indicated a general lack of psychometric assessments of existing IC instruments with independent studies as their evidence base. There is a need to explore further the associations of IC and its five domains of interaction, which express the ability of individuals to interact with the environment and affect their functional ability.
Emotion Regulation and Prospective Memory in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: An Empirical Investigation
Authors: Khan Azizuddin , Sarna Karamjeet Kaur , Khan Waheeda 
Published: February 2024

Introduction:
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has often been associated with emotion dysregulation and poor memory functions. While both these aspects are integral to daily life, understanding their relationship with individuals with ASD is critical. Previous research has indicated amplified emotional response, suggesting emotion dysregulation to be a core feature of ASD. Findings in the area of prospective memory (PM) yield inconsistent results. Therefore, this study aims to explore parental assessment of emotion regulation (ER) strategies and PM in children with ASD.

Methods:
This cross-sectional research was conducted using proxy reports by parents using snowball sampling between the ages of 5 and 12 years (n = 40) and analyzed using ANOVA.

Results:
The factorial ANOVA revealed that children with ASD exhibited significantly lower utilization of cognitive reappraisal strategies compared to the neurotypical group (F [1, 78] = 29.829, P < 0.001). In addition, significant main effects were observed for cue (F [1, 78] = 4.191, P = 0.044) and term (F [1, 78] = 35.669, P < 0.001). However, the main effect of memory was not found to be statistically significant (F [1, 78] = 3.194, P = 0.078). Furthermore, a substantial group effect was detected in the context of memory performance (F [1, 78] = 135.170, P < 0.01).

Conclusion:
The findings suggest that parent rating on ER and PM can adequately provide an insight into the actual performance of children.
The incidence of secondary neoplasms in retinoblastoma survivors who underwent radiation therapy: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Casey Anthea , Barliana Julie Dewi 
Published: February 2024

Abstract:
Secondary neoplasms are a significant cause of mortality among retinoblastoma survivors, particularly when exposed to radiation. This systematic review aims to investigate the association between radiation exposure and the incidence of secondary neoplasms in retinoblastoma survivors. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed, ProQuest, and EBSCOhost databases to gather relevant studies. Studies written in English about the incidence of secondary neoplasms in retinoblastoma patients who underwent radiotherapy were included. Retinoblastoma patients who did not receive radiotherapy were regarded as the control group. Studies involving animals and those without a control group were excluded. No date restrictions were applied. The last search was performed on April 6, 2022. The study selection process was presented in a flow diagram following the Preferred Reporting Items of Systematic reviews Meta-Analysis 2020 guidelines. The risk of bias was evaluated using the Risk of Bias in nonrandomized Studies of Interventions tool. Statistical analysis was performed using the Cochrane RevMan software (version 5.4.1). Five studies comprising a total of 3324 retinoblastoma patients were included. Of these, 290 (8.72%) patients developed secondary neoplasms, with 250 (86.21%) receiving radiotherapy. The results indicated that retinoblastoma patients who received radiotherapy had a higher risk of developing secondary neoplasms, with a pooled risk ratio of 5.12 (95% confidence interval 3.56–7.36, I
2 = 14%). The findings of this review highlight the importance of considering the risk of developing secondary neoplasms when treating retinoblastoma. Regular medical surveillance for secondary neoplasms should be a standard part of care for retinoblastoma survivors, particularly those exposed to radiation.

Expression of cyclin-dependent kinase 9 is positively correlated with the autophagy level in colon cancer
Authors: Zheng Lei , Lu Jia , Kong Da-Lu 
Published: February 2024

BACKGROUND
Cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9) expression and autophagy in colorectal cancer (CRC) tissues has not been widely studied. CDK9, a key regulator of transcription, may influence the occurrence and progression of CRC. The expression of autophagy-related genes BECN1 and drug resistance factor ABCG2 may also play a role in CRC. Under normal physiological conditions, autophagy can inhibit tumorigenesis, but once a tumor forms, autophagy may promote tumor growth. Therefore, understanding the relationship between autophagy and cancer, particularly how autophagy promotes tumor growth after its formation, is a key motivation for this research.
AIM
To investigate the relationship between CDK9 expression and autophagy in CRC, assess differences in autophagy between left and right colon cancer, and analyze the associations of autophagy-related genes with clinical features and prognosis.
METHODS
We collected tumor tissues and paracarcinoma tissues from colon cancer patients with liver metastasis to observe the level of autophagy in tissues with high levels of CDK9 and low levels of CDK9. We also collected primary tissue from left and right colon cancer patients with liver metastasis to compare the autophagy levels and the expression of BECN1 and ABCG2 in the tumor and paracarcinoma tissues.
RESULTS
The incidence of autophagy and the expression of BECN1 and ABCG2 were different in left and right colon cancer, and autophagy might be involved in the occurrence of chemotherapy resistance. Further analysis of the relationship between the expression of autophagy-related genes CDK9, ABCG2 , and BECN1 and the clinical features and prognosis of colorectal cancer showed that the high expression of CDK9 indicated a poor prognosis in colorectal cancer.
CONCLUSION
This study laid the foundation for further research on the combination of CDK9 inhibitors and autophagy inhibitors in the treatment of patients with CRC.
