Off the Mat: The Practice of Yoga and Mindfulness To Foster Hope and Resilience for Adolescents in Homes and Classrooms

An individual's sense of self and identity is a developmental cognition informed by the balance of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, proximal others, and systems of belief. Today's identity-seeking adolescent may internalize pressures and expectations from a growing base of social narratives that extends beyond the reach of family and friends. Cultivating daily practices that foster hope and resilience can support positive well-being outcomes for individuals, families, and communities who are faced with distress or traumatic events. Overall well-being within a classroom can be nourished through collaborative growth mindsets, positive coping skills, and cognitive reappraisals. Hope and resilience can be fostered through daily habits of awareness, gratitude, and simple meditation exercises. An off-the-mat approach to the practice of yoga-inspired philosophy can be used in the classroom or at home to support the skills necessary to foster the constructs of hope, develop resilience, and support flexible cognition that builds and sustains positive social, emotional, mental, and physical well-being.

Protein synthesis and its control in neuronal cells with a focus on vanishing white matter disease

Protein synthesis (also termed mRNA translation) is a key step in the expression of a cell's genetic information, in which the information contained within the coding region of the mRNA is used to direct the synthesis of the new protein, a process that is catalysed by the ribosome. Protein synthesis must be tightly controlled, to ensure the right proteins are made in the right amounts at the right time, and must be accurate, to avoid errors that could lead to the production of defective and potentially damaging proteins. In addition to the ribosome, protein synthesis also requires proteins termed translation factors, which mediate specific steps of the process. The first major stage of mRNA translation is termed ‘initiation’ and involves the recruitment of the ribosome to the mRNA and the identification of the correct start codon to commence translation. In eukaryotic cells, this process requires a set of eIFs (eukaryotic initiation factors). During the second main stage of translation, ‘elongation’, the ribosome traverses the coding region of the mRNA, assembling the new polypeptide: this process requires eEFs (eukaryotic elongation factors). Control of eEF2 is important in certain neurological processes. It is now clear that defects in eIFs or in their control can give rise to a number of diseases. This paper provides an overview of translation initiation and its control mechanisms, particularly those examined in neuronal cells. A major focus concerns an inherited neurological condition termed VHM (vanishing white matter) or CACH (childhood ataxia with central nervous system hypomyelination). VWM/CACH is caused by mutations in the translation initiation factor, eIF2B, a component of the basal translational machinery in all cells.

Clofazimine Inhibits the Growth of Babesia and Theileria Parasites <i>In Vitro</i> and <i>In Vivo</i>

ABSTRACT The present study evaluated the growth-inhibitory effects of clofazimine, currently used for treating leprosy, against Babesia bovis , B. bigemina , B. caballi , and Theileria equi in in vitro culture and against Babesia microti in mice. The 50% inhibitory concentrations (IC 50 s) of clofazimine against the in vitro growth of B. bovis , B. bigemina , B. caballi , and T. equi were 4.5, 3, 4.3, and 0.29 μM, respectively. In mice infected with B. microti , treatment with 20 mg/kg of body weight of clofazimine administered orally resulted in a significantly lower peak parasitemia (5.3%) than that in the control group (45.9%), which was comparable to the subcutaneous administration of 25 mg/kg diminazene aceturate, the most widely used treatment for animal piroplasmosis. Although slight anemia was observed in both clofazimine- and diminazene aceturate-treated infected mice, the level and duration of anemia were lower and shorter, respectively, than those in untreated infected mice. Using blood transfusions and PCR, we also examined whether clofazimine completely killed B. microti . On day 40 postinfection, when blood analysis was performed, parasites were not found in blood smears; however, the DNA of B. microti was detected in the blood of clofazimine-treated animals and in several tissues of clofazimine- and diminazene aceturate-treated mice by PCR. The growth of parasites was observed in mice after blood transfusions from clofazimine-treated mice. In conclusion, clofazimine showed excellent inhibitory effects against Babesia and Theileria in vitro and in vivo , and further study on clofazimine is required for the future development of a novel chemotherapy with high efficacy and safety against animal piroplasmosis and, possibly, human babesiosis.

Further Remarks on Irrational Systems and Their Applications

Irrational Systems (ISs) are transfer functions that include terms with irrational exponents. Since such systems are ubiquitous and can be seen when solving partial differential equations, fractional-order differential equations, or non-linear differential equations; their nature seems to be strongly linked with a low-order description of distributed parameter systems. This makes ISs an appealing option for model-reduction applications and controls. In this work, we review some of the fundamental concepts behind a set of ISs that are of core importance in their stability analysis and control design. Specifically, we introduce the notion of multivalued functions, branch points, time response, and stability regions, as well as some practical applications where these systems can be encountered. The theory is accompanied by some numerical examples or simulations.

Investigating Anxiety, Mobility, Disability and Proprioception in Adults with Mild Neck Pain: A Cross- Sectional Study

Introduction: Studies on subclinical neck pain (SCNP), known as mild pain lack proper literature. This study examines the differences in anxiety, neck movement, disability, and proprioception in people with chronic SCNP (12 females and 4 males, age = 28.1±4.0 years) and people without neck pain (17 females and 6 males, age = 25.8±3.1 years). Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study with 39 participants was conducted. The participants were instructed to score their pain using the visual analog scale (pain group: &lt; 4/10 and normal group: 0/10), anxiety level with the state-trait anxiety inventory, and neck disability with the neck disability index. In addition, active range of motion and joint position errors were assessed in participants of both groups. Results: There was no significant difference in mean baseline characteristics between the two groups. The participants in the pain group reported significantly higher median neck disability index (P≤0.001) and higher mean current state-trait anxiety inventory state (P=0.032) scores compared to participants with no pain. No significant differences in mean flexion, extension, lateral flexion right, lateral flexion left, rotation right, or rotation left were found between groups (P=0.95, P=0.68, P=0.29, P=0.59, P=0.70, and P=0.17, respectively). In addition, there were no significant differences in mean cervical spine joint position error flexion, extension, rotation right, and rotation left by the study group (P=0.65, P=0.33, P=0.26, and P=0.23, respectively). Conclusion: SCNP can substantially influence functional ability and anxiety levels, especially among students in higher education institutions dealing with additional stressors. The interaction between pain intensity, disability, and anxiety underscores the potential for a detrimental feedback loop, underscoring the significance of early interventionv

The Media and Displacements: News Frames of Victims of Herders/Farmers Conflict in Nigeria

Abstract This study examined media framing of internally displaced persons (IDPs) of the conflict between farmers and herdsmen in Nigeria. In doing so, particular attention was paid to source, frames, language, and solution suggested. The researchers adopted a mixed method of content analysis and structured interview. Therefore, a total of 279 newspaper stories, 161 TV stories, and 47 radio stories were examined for duration of 4 years. Also, a total of 20 journalists were interviewed for the study. In the area of theory, the study used framing theory to ground the study. Data from content analysis of the news frames were handled statistically, while descriptive and inferential statistics were used only as tools for organizing, summarizing, and presenting the empirical data. Data from oral interviews were handled using thematic analysis. Result showed that the framing of IDPs differs across the different media examined.

THE COMPETENCE PHENOMENON: OPEN QUESTIONS

Relevance. Historically formed scientific traditions, approaches, concepts (including those called the “competency-based approach” — the K-approach) are formed in certain social conditions to solve certain social problems, beyond them they discover their limitations. Identification of the possibilities and limitations of the K-approach contributes to both its development and the refinement of the conditions under which its implementation will be more constructive and effective. Methods: historical and theoretical analysis. Results. “Open questions” of the problem are highlighted: inconsistencies in the judgments of specialists in listing the qualities that determine the success of the subject; the number of competencies “necessary and sufficient”; non-realization of holistic, integrated approach; the place of competencies in the structure of professionalism, their role in career success and professional longevity of people; the issue of “universal” / “specific competencies”; the question about the place of the phenomenon of “competence” and the K-approach in the system of psychological knowledge; the question about the validity of the methods and the measure of the predictive value of the estimates. Conclusions. The interpretation of competencies and the K-approach proposed by specialists are unsatisfactory and poorly coordinated with each other. The K-approach and the established earlier approach of professionally important qualities (PVC-approach) are historically transient scientific concepts (falling into the scale of “small theories”). Both approaches have their own limitations as well as opportunities for development and integration with others. The PVC approach is characterized by an initial extremely broad statement of tasks; the K-approach — by the pragmatism of the original goals and objectives, empiricism in assessing the qualities of the subject. It is possible and necessary to search and find areas of their mutual complementarity, taking into account their ultimate goals and conditions of formation. Ignoring the merits and limitations of any scientific approach is not the best solution. The transition to an open discussion of all complex issues is in demand.

Improving Pepper Inbreds for Resistance to Pepper Yellow Leaf Curl Thailand Virus (PepYLCTHV) through Challenged Inoculations

Chili peppers (Capsicum annuum L.) are economically important crop worldwide. Pepper yellow leaf cure Thailand virus (PepYLCTHV), a Begomovirus causing yellow leaf mosaic disease of chili pepper has been reported to damage 95% economic loss under favorable epidemic conditions. Thirty-one chili genotypes were screened for resistance to PepYLCTHV disease through challenge inoculation using 10-15 viruliferous whiteflies per plant. We purified two resistant lines (PEP6 and PEP12) through four generations of selfing and selection through challenged inoculations. At the 28 days after inoculations two chili genotypes showed symptoms less based on disease severity and percentage of disease incidence of 30 plants PEP6 showed a disease severity 3.64 with 69.33 % DI and PEP12 showed a disease severity 3.83 with 77.67 % DI. PEP6 and PEP12 were selected for pure-line development for four cycles.Both varieties showed an increase in percentage of the resistant plant 12.78 % and 16.77 %, respectively. These lines have potential for release as resistant lines for improvement chili pepper resistance to PepYLCTHV and for developing maker associated with the resistant trait.

Youth Crime in the UK

Between 1981 and 1993 recorded crime in the UK increased by 111 per cent. Government ministers were temporarily heartened in 1988 when it dropped by 5 per cent because it seemed that their investment in law and order, a real increase of 87 per cent during the Conservatives' period in office, was at last paying off. But recorded crime rose sharply again from the end of 1989, climbing by 17 per cent in 1990, a further 16 per cent in 1991, reaching its peak at 5.8 million in 1992, from where it fell back to around 5.3 million in 1994. However, the falls in recorded property crime between 1993 and 1994 were paralleled by a significant rise in 'crimes against the person' (see Table 2.1).

Latitudinal variation in axial patterning of the medaka (Actinopterygii: Adrianichthyidae): Jordan's rule is substantiated by genetic variation in abdominal vertebral number

Because the body axes of fish consist of two anatomically distinct vertebrae, abdominal and caudal, one type may be more variable in number than the other and thus contribute more to morphological diversification. Jordan's rule, a geographical tendency for fish from higher latitudes to have more vertebrae, has not been examined in terms of numbers of abdominal and/or caudal vertebrae, despite its prevalence. Vertebral observations of wild populations of the medaka (Oryzias latipes) revealed that the latitudinal increase in vertebral number is caused by an increase in abdominal vertebrae; caudal vertebrae did not vary systematically across latitudes. Laboratory experiments revealed that this latitudinal cline in abdominal vertebral number persists in a range of common environments, demonstrating a genetic basis. Phenotypic plasticity was also evident: lower developmental temperatures resulted in more abdominal vertebrae. This indicates that greater numbers of abdominal vertebrae in higher latitude individuals in the wild may be caused not only by genetic factors but by lower habitat temperatures, although the contribution of the former to Jordan's rule is assessed to be much greater. The genetic basis of the latitudinal variation in abdominal vertebral number suggests that selection on functions associated with abdominal regions is the probable explanation for Jordan's rule in this fish.

Rivers, energy sources and water quality

Rivers in India have their own ecosystems, river streams in hills have aquatic life, which is increasingly being threatened by human needs and search for new resources for growth. Along its lengthy course, several tributaries join them with sediment, waters carrying varying physical gradients. The deltaic regions of each of our rivers are rich with its own characteristic biodiversity, environment and ecosystem. Indian rivers are mostly rainfed. Deltaic conservation of rivers in Kerela, Krishna, Sunderbans of river Ganga have been attracting notice in the recent years. There is increasing urgency to harness off-shore resources along our coasts. On land, wetlands and evaporation ponds are being planned. Economists evaluate new investment options in water environmental segments, by a set of criteria; like Pay back period, contingent evaluation, hedonic price methods. WSP are said to cause odours, if overloaded, need high land requirement, and costs and poor effluent quality. Constructed wetlands have to be preceeded, by septic tank or anaerobic tank to digest organic waste loads, population pressures demand of us new innovative solutions.

Bruise Damage Susceptibility and Fruit Quality Assessment of Pear

Introduction: Bruising is a type of mechanical damage that challenges fresh horticulture production efforts, which occurs mainly due to excessive compression and impact forces during postharvest operations resulting in quality deterioration of fresh produce and reduction in economic value. Objective: This study aims to assess the bruise susceptibility of imported pears and determine its effect on pear quality attributes. Materials and Methods: Each Pyrus communis, variety ‘D'Anjou’ imported pears was impacted by a known mass steel ball at three different drop heights (20, 40, and 60 cm). Bruised fruit was stored at 22°C with 45±5% RH and 10°C with 85±5% RH for 48 hours storage period. Pears were also subjected to different quality analyses like color, firmness, weight loss, and total soluble solids (TSS). The analysis was conducted by performing two factorial balanced analyses of variance (ANOVA). Results: Bruise area, bruise volume, and bruise susceptibility were the highest at higher drop impact (60 cm) on pears stored at 22°C and the lowest were at lower drop impact (20 cm) on pears stored at 10°C. Furthermore, there was a statistically significant impact of drop height and temperature on bruising susceptibility. Besides, statistics showed a significant impact of the studied factors (temperature and drop height) on quality parameters of pears such as lightness ( L *), redness-greenness ( a *), weight loss, and firmness after 48 hours of storage Conclusion: Mechanical damages like bruising can be affected by many factors like storage temperature and impact level force. Finally, it was concluded that mechanical damages like bruising can be affected by many factors like storage temperature and impact force. Overall, this study can consider as a guideline for workers during postharvest operations and handling.

Fabrication and superconducting properties of internal Mg diffusion processed MgB<sub>2</sub>wires using MgB<sub>4</sub>precursors

Monofilament MgB2/Nb/Monel wires were fabricated using three different MgB4 precursors by an internal Mg diffusion (IMD) process. The wire geometry and heat-treatment conditions were optimized in order to improve the critical current density (J c) of the MgB2 wire. The influences of the quality of MgB4 powders, such as the particle size and MgO impurity, on the microstructure and superconducting properties of the wires were discussed. Although there were small amounts of voids, unreacted MgB4 particles and MgO impurity existed in the superconducting layers, and the transport layer J c of the wire with the MgB4 precursor reached 3.0 × 104 A cm−2 at 4.2 K and 10 T, which was comparable to that of IMD-processed wires fabricated using boron precursors. Both the non-barrier J c and engineering J c of MgB2 wire made using a MgB4 precursor were enhanced due to the improved grain connectivity and the enlarged fill factor.
