Abstract Urbanization driven by industrialization and population growth amplifies food consumption and reinforces the need for more fuels and energy. However, the expansion of biofuels can impose risks on long-term food security. This paper examines potential alternative crops for energy generation and food production, including those used by family farmers [...] |
Teachers on Self-CareAbstract Teachers face at-work risk factors including compassion fatigue, burnout, dealing with violence, and a teacher shortage. A review of the literature shows that self-care can have positive benefits that mitigate and help to buffer these at-work risk factors This study examines teachers’ stories of self-care. The data suggests that self-care is a positiv [...] |
Moldavian Dragonhead Extract: A Natural Collagen-Booster to Target Skin AgingAbstract The complex process of skin aging results in noticeable changes, including decreased collagen content, reduced elasticity, and decreased hydration. Interventions to preserve or restore collagen, a key structural protein, may help counteract these signs. The concept of "beauty from within” through nutritional supplements is of growing interest, particu [...] |
Oral Features in Children with X-Linked Hypophosphatemic Rickets: An 8-Year Follow-Up Case ReportAbstract X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLHR) is a hereditary metabolic disease caused by the loss of phosphate through the renal tubules into the urine and an associated decrease in serum calcium and potassium phosphate, resulting in bone and dental abnormalities. We report this case, aiming to describe, through an 8-year follow-up case report, the clinical [...] |
Enhancing Biodiversity Education and Outreach for Conservation Awareness and Environmental StewardshipAbstract Biodiversity—the rich variety of life on Earth—is essential for ecosystem stability and resilience, which, in turn, supports human well-being. However, human activities, such as habitat destruction, pollution, overexploitation, and climate change, are placing unprecedented pressures on global biodiversity, emphasizing the need for urgent conservatio [...] |
A Novel Approach to Carbon Monoxide Removal Using Transition Metal-Doped Boron Nitride Nanosensors for Environmental SustainabilityAbstract Adsorption of toxic gas of CO molecules by using transition metals of X (X = Ti, V, Cr, Co, Cu, Zn)-doped boron nitride nanocage (B5N10_NC) has been studied by computational chemistry. Based on NQR analysis, X-doped on B5N10_NC has shown the lowest fluctuation in electric potential and the highest negative atomic charge, including 0.2331 (copper), [...] |
Entropy and War, Toy ModelsAbstract This study investigates the relationship between entropy and societal dynamics, with a particular focus on the origins and implications of war. By using entropy as a measure of uncertainty and inequality, the research examines societal stability through patterns of stratification and wealth distribution. Employing simplified models of various wealth [...] |
Poly ε-Caprolactone Scaffolds: Advancements in Bone Regeneration and GraftingAbstract In orthopedics and oncology, benign and malignant bone lesions pose significant clinical challenges. Malignant tumors, like osteosarcomas and multiple myeloma, pose substantial health dangers and can spread common and mostly non-life-threatening benign lesions, including non-sizing fibromas and unicameral bone cysts. Treatment plans for bone lesions [...] |
Pregnancy Risk Factors in Cerebrovascular DiseaseAbstract Cerebrovascular diseases such as strokes and cerebral hemorrhages are important causes of death in the world, which increase during pregnancy due to physiological conditions.
