The objective of the study is to identify the level of recreation of social experience by children of 5-7 years old in motor games.
Methods: theoretical: analysis, synthesis, generalization; empirical: observation and evaluation of independent motor activity of children, game diagnostic situations, conversation; methods of mathematical statistics: Mann-Whitney U-test. Materials. The study involved 625 older preschool children (312 girls and 313 boys) attending Municipal Budgetary Pre-school Educational Institution nursery schools No. 56 and 76 in Belgorod, Municipal Autonomous Pre-school Educational Institution “Gnomik” nursery school No. 78 in Belgorod; Municipal Preschool Educational Institution nursery schools No. 3, 4, and 8 of the city of Valuyki, Belgorod region; Municipal Autonomous Pre-school Educational Institution nursery schools No.2, 32, 35, and 37 of the city of Gubkin, Municipal Budgetary Pre-school Educational Institution "Veselinka" nursery school No. 40 of the city of Gubkin, and Municipal Budgetary Pre-school Educational Institution nursery schools No. 19 and 36 of the city of Gubkin, Belgorod region. Results The relevance of the study is due to the presence of a high potential of motor games in terms of its sociological component and pedagogical determinants. The need to comprehend and implement this potential in pedagogical practice in order to positively socialize a growing person. In modern studies, motor-game activity is considered as a method of complex influence on the child, contributing to his physical, cognitive, communicative, socio-cultural development. Summary. Analysis of the results of the study showed that 78.7% of children aged 5-7 years old successfully use social experience in motor games and show an optimal and sufficient level of its reconstruction. At the same time, 1/5 of the children:
- have difficulty in planning and discussing joint actions in the game, the distribution of game functions;
- violate the rules of interaction during the game;
- insufficiently dynamic and proactive in the development of the plot of the game;
- feel difficult to determine their own playing roles, the overall assessment of the game.
Significant gender differences in the reconstruction of social experience in the motor games of older preschoolers have not been found.

The social impact of sporting events has been analysed mainly through residents' perceptions. The aim of this study was to find out residents' future intentions about the celebration of the 2018 Formula E Grand Prix of Santiago de Chile. For the selection of the sample (n=414 residents) the non-probability purposive sampling method was used with a confidence interval of 95%. The instrument used was an online questionnaire with a Likert scale (five-point scale). The results offered values close to four, which would indicate a positive trend in the residents' intentions. On the other hand, the significant influence of various socio-demographic variables related to the celebration of the event was verified: age, sex, studies, ideology, occupation, family residence, support for the celebration, attendance and employment ties with the sector. The results of the study made it possible to establish a favourable social perception of the reception of the event, although with different levels depending on the social group and its link to the event.

Talent identification (TI) in sport, which is the selection of individuals disposed to achieve elite performance in adulthood, is often based on physical fitness testing. TI is linked to the phenomenon called the Relative Age Effect (RAE), referring to the influence of birthdate on sports performance. This retrospective study is based on the assumption that elite adult athletes possessed indicators predictive of a successful career already at a young age. The study aimed to assess the differences among Czech male tennis players according to 1) their tennis performance in adulthood, 2) their birthdate in each semester (S). The participants were players U12 who were later among top 1000 in the ATP Singles Rankings (SR). The research data was obtained during regular testing of the Czech Tennis Association (1998–2019). Significant differences between subgroups R1 (SR 1st - 500th) and R2 (SR 501st - 1000th) were found, surprisingly in favor of R2 in 4 variables. Significant differences were found in favor of B1 (born in S1) in 2 variables, and in favor of B2 (born in S2) in 2 variables.
La identificación de talentos (IT) en el deporte, que es la selección de individuos dispuestos a lograr un rendimiento de élite en la edad adulta, a menudo se basa en pruebas de aptitud física. La IT está relacionada con el fenómeno llamado Efecto de la Edad Relativa (EER), que se refiere a la influencia de la fecha de nacimiento en el rendimiento deportivo. Este estudio retrospectivo se basa en la suposición de que los atletas adultos de élite poseían indicadores predictivos de una carrera exitosa desde una edad temprana. El estudio tuvo como objetivo evaluar las diferencias entre los tenistas masculinos checos según 1) su rendimiento en el tenis en la edad adulta, 2) su fecha de nacimiento en cada semestre (S). Los participantes fueron jugadores sub-12 que más tarde se ubicaron entre los 1000 mejores en el Ranking ATP de Individuales. Los datos de la investigación se obtuvieron durante las pruebas periódicas de la Asociación Checa de Tenis (1998-2019). Se encontraron diferencias significativas entre los subgrupos R1 (ranking 1 - 500) y R2 (ranking 501 - 1000), sorprendentemente favorables a R2 en 4 variables. Se encontraron diferencias significativas favorables a B1 (nacidos en S1) en 2 variables, y favorables a B2 (nacidos en S2) en 2 variables.

Currently, the study of motivation within the physical sports environment is a subject that has been widely studied, as well as the physical-healthy variables in the young population. For this reason, the present research aims to study the relationships between motivational climate, physical activity practice and adherence to the Mediterranean diet in physical education teachers in training. For this purpose, a descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out in a sample composed of a total of 558 participants (M=21.37±0.35). An ad hoc questionnaire, the Perceived Motivational Climate in Sport Questionnaire-2 (PMCSQ-2) and the PREDIMED questionnaire were used for data collection. The data reveal that task climate and ego climate are positively correlated with the practice of physical activity; however, it is observed that the motivational climate plays a key role in achieving a positive adherence to a healthy dietary pattern.

Background
Obesity, a public health problem, is a state of metainflammation that influences the development of chronic degenerative diseases, particularly in patients with severe obesity.

Objective
The objective of this study was to evidence immunometabolic differences in patients with different degrees of obesity, including severe obesity, by determining correlations between lymphocyte subpopulations and metabolic, body composition, and clinical variables.

Methods
Peripheral blood immune cells (CD4+, CD8+ memory and effector T lymphocytes) were analyzed, and measures of body composition, blood pressure, and biochemical composition (glucose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), insulin, C-reactive protein (CRP), and the lipid profile) were carried out in patients with different degrees of obesity.

Results
The patients were classified according to total body fat (TBF) percentage as normal body fat, class 1 and 2 obesity, class 3 obesity, and class 4 obesity. The greater the TBF percentage, the more pronounced the differences in body composition (such as a decrease in the fat-free mass (FFM) that is defined as sarcopenic obesity) and the immunometabolic profile. There was an increase of CD3+ T lymphocytes (mainly CD4+, CD4+CD62-, and CD8+CD45RO+ T lymphocytes) and an increase in the TBF percentage (severity of obesity).

Conclusions
The correlations between lymphocyte subpopulations and metabolic, body composition, and clinical variables demonstrated the existence of a chronic, low-intensity inflammatory process in obesity. Therefore, measuring the immunometabolic profile by means of lymphocyte subpopulations in patients with severe obesity could be useful to determine the severity of the disease and the increased risk of presenting obesity-associated chronic degenerative diseases.

Aims: The study investigates the process of change of the Kitulo plateau to Kitulo national park status and the implications on sustainable livelihoods to adjacent local communities in Makete District.
Study Design: The study adopted a mixed research design which allows for the triangulation of qualitative and quantitative methods to gain a better understanding of the studied subject matter.
Methodology: Simple random and purposive sampling was used to select respondents for the study. Household survey, in-depth interviews, observation and document review methods were used to collect data. The household survey included 114 heads of households. Qualitative data were subjected to content analysis and statistical analysis using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) used for quantitative data. Land use changes were captured and presented using Geographical Information System (GIS).
Results: The establishment of the Kitulo National Park from Kitulo plateau was not participatory as 82.5% of local communities were not involved in the process and even during the gazettement of the Kitulo National Park. The main actors in the process of change were government leaders and NGOs (87.7%), TANAPA (8.7%) and local communities (3.6%). These results implies that majority of the people were not involved which may affect in supporting conservation activities. Also, the justifications for the establishment of the park were to improve conservation of water catchment sources and high value of biodiversity. Furthermore, livelihoods benefits were constructing development projects and enhancing livelihoods of neighbouring communities.
Conclusion: The transformation of Kitulo plateau to the Kitulo national park was not bottom up participatory approach which made negative perception and attitude from local community towards the establishment of the park. Therefore, because the park has led to loss of major livelihoods activities to local communities, this paper thus seeks to recommend to increase more livelihood supports benefits and launching of sensitization programme for clear understanding on the purpose of the park and its benefits which will ensure the park sustainability.

Objective: This study aimed to determine the prevalence rate and associated risk factors of Trichomonas vaginalis infection among undergraduate female students at Prince Abubakar Audu University, Anyigba, Kogi State, Nigeria.
Methods: This cross-sectional and institutional-based study involved female students who consented to screening. A total of four hundred (400) high vaginal swab samples were randomly collected from consenting female students and analyzed by wet mount preparation. Demographic and clinical information about the participants was obtained using prepared questionnaires.
Results: It was observed that the overall prevalence of T. vaginalis infection among the 400 female participants was 170 (42.5%). The age ranges 14–18 and 24-28 had the highest prevalence of 50%, while the age range 19–23 had the least prevalence of 41.2%. The Ebira tribe had the highest prevalence of 60%, while the lowest prevalence was 0.0% among Hausa and others. Islam had the highest prevalence of 66.7%, while Christianity had the lowest prevalence of 40.5%. Students at the 100 level had the highest prevalence of 50%, and those at the 200 level had the least prevalence of 38.5%. There was no significant association between T. vaginalis infection and predisposing factors such as douching, sanitation, and sexual habits. However, the study did find that females who did not use sanitary pads were at a significantly higher risk of infection, while females who did not douche their vagina with antiseptic or deodorant products had a slightly higher risk of infection.
Conclusion: It is clear from the results of the present study that Prince Abubakar Audu University's undergraduate female students are at a high prevalence of 42.5% for Trichomonas vaginalis infection. The study offers crucial information about the incidence of T. vaginalis infection and the risk factors connected to it among female participants in the study area. The high prevalence of infection highlights the need for increased awareness and education about the infection and its prevention in the study area.

Authors: Harris Edward M. 
Published: June 2023

AbstractFrom the sixth century onwards, families in many Greek city‐states appear to have practiced direct dowry, though some traces of indirect dowry remained. The value of a dowry varied according to the status and wealth of the woman's family and the number of her brothers and sisters. The dowry would include the wife's trousseau and money, slaves, buildings, or land given to the husband.

AbstractTod, 25 km south of Luxor, is the site of the ancient city ofDjerty(Greek, Tuphium) associated with the cult of Montu, a military and protective god. Established during the Old Kingdom (twenty‐sixth centurybce), with most temple construction dating to the Middle Kingdom (ca. 2050–1750bce) and Ptolemaic periods (220–120bce), it was connected with four other cult centers of the god, forming a protective zone around the Theban Nome. The temple was last added to in the second centuryceand remained in use for some time after that.

Fast finite‐time adaptive event‐triggered output‐feedback control for nonlinear uncertain systems
Authors: Zhang Yan , Wang Fang , Li Xueyi , Li Zheng , You Zhaoyang 
Published: June 2023

SummaryThis article investigates an adaptive fast finite‐time control problem for a class of nonlinear uncertain systems. First, to reduce the transmission load, an event‐triggering mechanism is introduced into the channel from the controller to the actuator. Second, the observer is employed to estimate the unmeasurable state variables. Third, considering that the nonlinear functions of systems are completely unknown, neural networks are introduced to overcome the obstacles caused by unknown nonlinearities. Finally, an event‐triggered adaptive fast finite‐time output‐feedback control strategy is proposed by means of the fast finite‐time stability criterion and backstepping technique. The theoretical analysis illustrates that under the proposed control strategy, all signals in the closed‐loop systems converge to a bounded domain within a finite time. Furthermore, the Zeno phenomenon can be avoided effectively. The main innovation is to design the adaptive controller from a new perspective. The validity of results is elaborated by numerical simulation.

AbstractDevelopment of tough, reusable adhesives is important, but remains a major challenge, especially in water. A tough reusable adhesive that resets entirely to its virgin condition when needed is reported using caffeic acid. Here, caffeic acid is employed as adhesive moiety to achieve such the functions due to its dual characteristics: an adhesive moiety from mussel‐inspired catechol and a photo‐reversible crosslink from cinnamic acid. Adhesion involves a two‐step process. First, the caffeic acid‐functionalized polymer is applied to the adherend, followed by UV irradiation (peak wavelength of light‐emitting diode, λP: 365 nm) to form a durable pre‐applied adhesive (PAA) layer through crosslinking among the caffeic acid moieties. Second, thermal activation of the PAA layer ensures repeated adhesion to a variety of adherends (Reuse‐Many mode). The cyclic dimer of the caffeic acid moiety is de‐crosslinked by UV irradiation at λP: 254 nm. This allows the complete removal of the adhesive residues from the adherends when the adhesive is no longer needed (Reset‐On demand mode). Furthermore, using magnetic nanoparticles, the caffeic acid‐functionalized polymer can be activated remotely under water by magnetic induction heating. This study paves the way for the rational design of bio‐inspired adhesives that outperform nature using plant‐derived raw materials.

AbstractFerroptosis is identified as a novel type of cell death with distinct properties involved in physical conditions and various diseases, including cancers. It is considered that ferroptosis provides a promising therapeutic strategy for optimizing oncotherapy. Although erastin is an effective ferroptosis trigger, the potential of its clinical application is largely restricted by its poor water solubility and concomitant limitations. To address this issue, an innovative nanoplatform (PE@PTGA) that integrated protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) and erastin coated with amphiphilic polymers (PTGA) to evoke ferroptosis and apoptosis is constructed and exemplified using an orthotopic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) xenograft mouse model as a paradigm. The self‐assembled nanoparticles can enter HCC cells and release PpIX and erastin. With light stimulation, PpIX exerts hyperthermia and reactive oxygen species to inhibit the proliferation of HCC cells. Besides, the accumulated reactive oxygen species (ROS) can further promote erastin‐induced ferroptosis in HCC cells. In vitro and in vivo studies reveal that PE@PTGA synergistically inhibits tumor development by stimulating both ferroptosis‐ and apoptosis‐related pathways. Moreover, PE@PTGA has low toxicity and satisfactory biocompatibility, suggesting its promising clinical benefit in cancer treatments.
