Authors: Chacko Benjamin , Zameer M. M. , Vinay  , D’cruz Ashley L. J. , Rao Sanjay 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT

Background:
Malnutrition is a significant concern in the hospitalized surgical cohort. Despite this there is no standardized scheme tailored for the pediatric surgical cohort. This study evaluated the feasibility to of the novel two-axis scheme to fill the lacunae in pediatric nutritional assessment.

Aims:
The aim of this study is to study the effect of the preoperative nutritional status on the clinical outcomes.

Materials and Methods:
This is a prospective, observational, and cohort study of all pediatric patients undergoing surgery at our center from January 2021 to September 2022. Preoperative anthropometry was measured and all subjects were classified using the two-axis scheme incorporating body mass index and height z-scores into nonoutliers or one of the four outlier groups: underweight short, underweight tall, overweight short, and overweight tall. All complications within 30 days postsurgery were recorded and graded by the Clavien–Dindo classification.

Results:
The study included a total of 827 patients who underwent 1022 surgeries, 70.5% being males. About 33% of the cohort was under 5 years of age. Overall incidence of complications was 10.1% with underweight short group having the highest (19.7%). Underweight short group had higher incidence of composite and healthcare-associated infections (P < 0.05) and higher odds of all types of complication in comparison to the nonoutliers. No significant relation was noted between the nutritional groups and the severity of the complication.

Conclusions:
This study supported the predictive value and feasibility of this novel two-axis nutritional classification scheme in the pediatric surgical outcomes. The underweight short subjects are at higher risk of developing postoperative complications.

Meru Betiri National Park (MBNP) is one of the conservation areas with an essential bird habitat in East Java. In the conservation monitoring and evaluation framework, we studied the diversity and existence of birds in the bird hotspot (Pringtali Block) as an implication for bird conservation in the MBNP. Bird observations were collected during January-February 2023 at the Pringtali Block using the point count method at six representative sites. The primary data recorded included bird species, abundance of each species, and frequency of encounters. Meanwhile, the secondary data were obtained from web queries covering bird conservation status and distribution through https://www.iucnredlist.org/. Data analysis was conducted in three stages: determining species composition, species diversity index (H'), and species existence value (Ef). The results recorded 70 bird species, consisting of 57 genera and 33 families, in the Pringtali Block of MBNP. The diversity index of birds was included in the high category (H' = 3.31). The average existence value (Ef) of the bird is 48.57 or x̄=3 s, which are included in the medium category. This reveals that birds in the Pringtali block have important structural and functional values in the MBNP ecosystem. This value also illustrates the importance of the presence of a bird species in the ecosystem and represents the uniqueness of the bird species. The birds with the highest Ef values were the Javan Hawk-eagle Nisaetus bartelsi (86.67) and White-rumped Woodpecker Meiglyptes tristis (86.67). Both species have low frequencies, are an endangered category, and are endemic to Java. Therefore, conservation efforts associated with MBNP have been successful.

Published: January 2025

Objective: This study aims to determine the impact of the declarative system of real estate rights in public registries on the procedural burden of the civil courts of Arequipa (2016-2019).

Theoretical Framework: The Peruvian registry system is declarative, aiming to simplify procedures and grant publicity to registered acts. However, its non-obligatory nature for raising deeds makes will the sole factor for transferring ownership. Consequently, previous owners may remain in property records for years, leading to legal acts of bad faith that require judicial intervention. This increases the workload of civil courts, already overburdened.

Method: The research follows a positivist paradigm with a quantitative, correlational-descriptive, cross-sectional, and non-experimental approach. Spearman's Rho was applied to analyze the relationship between variables.

Results and Discussion: The results showed a strong, significant, and positive correlation between the declarative registry system and the procedural burden on Arequipa's civil courts during 2016-2019 (Spearman’s Rho: .738**, significance ρ = 0.000). These findings confirm the hypothesis and highlight how systemic flaws in property registries contribute to judicial inefficiency. The discussion contextualizes the results within the framework of procedural and legal challenges while acknowledging the limitations of the study.

Research Implications: This study underscores the urgent need for reforms in the Peruvian registry system to reduce the procedural burden on civil courts. These findings are valuable for policymakers and legal professionals seeking to enhance property rights administration and streamline judicial processes.

Originality/Value: This study provides empirical evidence of the relationship between the declarative registry system and judicial workload. It highlights systemic inefficiencies and offers practical insights for reforms, aiding policymakers and legal professionals in improving judicial efficiency.

Published: January 2025

The phenomenon of female terrorism is a new field of study that challenges traditional understandings that often associate women with their compassionate attitudes and maternal roles. Through a feminist and risk assessment perspective, this research investigates the typology of motherhood-based female terrorism, focusing on the manifestation of maternal values and their intersection with extremist ideologies. This study used qualitative analysis of primary and secondary data sources, including interviews with 20 female perpetrators of terrorism, focus group discussions with 15 experts in the field of terrorism, and analysis of scholarly literature. This study underscores the existence of women's agency and semi-autonomy in terrorism activities based on the preceding experiences of oppression, victimization, manipulation, and mystification. The character and value of motherhood of female terrorists depend on social and cultural practices throughout the subject's life. Based on the experiences of these informants, this study identifies seven typologies of motherhood-based female terrorism, namely (1) Lone of Motherhood, (2) Underage Motherhood, (3) Paramilitary Motherhood; (4) Entrepreneur Motherhood, (5) Academia Motherhood, (6) Migrant Motherhood; (7) Domestic Motherhood. In conclusion, this study offers critical insights into the typology of motherhood-based female terrorism and provides a foundation for future research and policy development aimed at addressing the complexities of female participation in extremist activities.

Published: January 2025

El acoso escolar o bullying, afecta alrededor de un tercio de la población adolescente en todo el mundo, siendo un problema que afecta significativamente la salud y el bienestar de los jóvenes. En este contexto, la resiliencia es un factor de protección a ser investigado que posibilita afrontar estas experiencias adversas. El objetivo del estudio fue explorar la correlación predictiva entre la resiliencia y el acoso escolar en una muestra de 367 adolescentes que cursaban el bachillerato en la Unidad Educativa Fiscal “Luis Tello”. El diseño fue no experimental, de alcance transversal, con enfoque cuantitativo, y de tipo descriptivo/correlacional. La edad promedio del grupo fue 15.74 años, el 85.8% fueron hombres y el 14.2% mujeres. El 49.3% se autoidentificó mestizo y el 46% afrodescendientes. Todos completaron escalas psicométricas sobre resiliencia y acoso escolar. Se observó que una mayor resolución de problemas se asocia significativamente con la reducción de ser víctima de acoso escolar. También, que la agresión psicológica es la forma de acoso más frecuente. Además, se confirma la importancia de implementar programas escolares que fortalezcan la resiliencia y aborden las diversas formas de acoso, especialmente aquellas que tienden a ser normalizadas. En conclusión, la intervención integral es esencial para mejorar el bienestar de los adolescentes en entornos vulnerables.
Aligning Gamified Learning Experiences to Learning Outcomes
Authors: Wood Kayleen , Drew Steve 
Published: January 2025

Gamified learning experiences use game mechanics and structures in curriculum and learning activities to engage students with content and scaffold toward intended learning outcomes. Using the domains of Bloom's taxonomy of learning in the cognitive domain to explore the possible relationship between games and learning for application to university learning, links can be made between thinking skills and game types. This paper describes the development of the Gamification Alignment Table and the Gamification Alignment Model, how these were used to design a gamified learning experience (GLE) for the intended student learning outcomes at the first-year undergraduate level, and how they could be used at master's level with different available in-game choices. The Gamification Alignment Table allows learning designers to identify how the pedagogical lexicon matches to existing features of games and therefore can be easily transformed into GLEs. In the Gamification Alignment Model, the six levels of knowledge in the cognitive domain, with pedagogical verbs used by educators and learning designers in planning and designing GLEs, are paired with game types involving different sorts of learning activities. The concept explored in the example GLE in this paper was the accounting and finance threshold concept of the time value of money. This research provides a further link between Bloom's levels and the Australian Qualifications Framework levels, and the comparable European Qualifications Framework levels. This novel mapping provides rationale for the linking of game design and learning outcomes and will be of interest to educational designers, as well as academics, with a learning focus.

Effect of Copper Content on the Microstructure and Electrochemical Corrosion Behavior of Laser Cladding 316L Stainless Steel Coating
Authors: Wang Dantong , Zhao Tan , Wang Qian , Zhang Yalong , Hong Mingyang , Chen Dongxu , Zhang Junwei 
Published: January 2025

To evaluate the effect of copper (Cu) content on the microstructure and corrosion resistance of austenite stainless steel, 316L stainless steel coatings with varying Cu contents were prepared by laser cladding. The phase composition, microstructure, and electrochemical corrosion behavior of the coatings were studied in detail. The results indicated that γ-Fe was the dominant phase in the 316L stainless steel coating, and ε-Cu appeared after the addition of Cu. The incorporation of Cu was beneficial for refining the typical dendrite structures. Potentiodynamic polarization tests in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution revealed that as the Cu content increased, the corrosion potential of the coating became more positive and corrosion current density decreased, demonstrating that the addition of Cu could improve the corrosion resistance of the coating. Similar conclusions were also obtained from long-term electrochemical impedance spectroscopy tests. By characterizing the Mott-Schottky curve and element valence of the passivation film on the Cu-containing 316L stainless steel coating, it was found that Cu addition could reduce the point defect density and improve the stability of the passivation film. Moreover, Cu could also promote the enrichment of oxidized-state Cr and Cu/Cu2O in the passivation film, making it more protective.

This research was due to the problems that were found in SMPN 1 Ampek Angkek. The problems that were found were that students had difficulty in understanding the text, lack of vocabulary, and students were slow reader. Furthermore, the researcher also found that students who read slow scored higher than the students who read fast in reading comprehension. This research was quantitative research. The design of this research was correlational research. The researcher used two variables which they were variables X and variable Y. Variable X was students’ reading speed and variable Y was students’ reading comprehension. The researcher used cluster random sampling technique in this study. This means that the sample was taken randomly based on the class, and class IX 2 and IX 5 were chosen as the sample. There were 51 sample. For the method, the researcher asked the students to read the text. While the students were reading the text, the researcher counted the time by using a stopwatch. After collecting data, then the researcher analyzed students reading speed and the number of correct on the reading comprehension test. Furthermore, the correlation test was done by using SPSS. It was done to see whether there was a correlation between students’ reading speed and their comprehension. Based on the findings and discussions in this research, there were 3 finding of this research. First, there was no significant correlation between reading speed and reading comprehension. Second, there was positive correlation between two variables. Third, the correlation magnitude between two variables was low. It can be concluded that this study against the theory that said close relationship between reading speed and reading comprehension. The data revealed that students with a high level of reading comprehension do not always have a high reading speed, and vice versa.

Simple wire versus figure of 8 wire for sternal closure after sternotomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Rahayu Devi Agustini 
Published: January 2025

Introduction: Sternotomy is associated with a range of complications, including instability, non-union, and infection, which are among the most frequent issues encountered. The standard closure method for median sternotomy involves the use of simple wires applied in either a figure-of-eight or a simple interrupted configuration. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of simple wires in a figure-of-eight pattern versus the simple wire technique for sternal closure following median sternotomy.

Methods: Data in this study were PubMed, Web of Science, Wiley, Cochrane, ProQuest, Mendeley, and ScienceDirect databases, covering the period from 2019 to 2024. This systematic review included comparative studies evaluating simple wire versus figure-of-eight techniques for sternal closure post-sternotomy. Meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager version 5.4.

Results
From an initial pool of 309 articles, 6 studies were identified as eligible for analysis. These studies collectively included 8,236 patients undergoing sternal closure with the figure-of-eight technique and 2,622 patients with the simple wire technique. The meta-analysis revealed a significantly higher rate of sternal dehiscence in patients treated with the simple wire technique compared to those using the figure-of-eight technique, with an odds ratio of 0.35 (95% CI, 0.15–0.81; p = 0.01).

Conclusion: Patients undergoing sternal closure with the simple wire technique exhibited higher rates of sternal dehiscence compared to those treated with the figure-of-eight method. The figure-of-eight wire technique significantly reduced the incidence of sternal dehiscence and appears to be a more effective method for sternal closure after median sternotomy.
