In response to the alarming rise in obesity and hypertension among young people, this study aimed to evaluate the effects of regularly playing the traditional game " Lipato " as an extracurricular activity on the body composition and blood pressure of students in rural areas. The study was conducted on a sample of 64 students aged 18 to 22, divided into two equal groups: an experimental group (EG) that participated in a " Lipato " playing program for 12 weeks during the school holidays, and a control group (CG) that received no intervention.

The agricultural sector in South Asia, especially countries like Bangladesh, China, and India, relies heavily on cotton, a crop vital to both the economy and the global textile industry. However, cotton production faces significant challenges from leaf diseases, which can drastically reduce crop yield, impacting farmers’ livelihoods and the region’s economy. Traditional methods for detecting these diseases involve manual inspection, which is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and prone to error.

The study of culture and its embodiment within the urban environment can be challenging. This challenge is more remarkable in Africa, specifically in Burkina Faso. Despite that Ouagadougou has become a metropolitan hub within the surrounding cities, academic literature in the role of music in urban development is not well traced within a geographical perspective.Hence the interest of this paper.

The Thiosemicarbazone derivative of 4-chlorobenzaldehyde represents a promising compound with significant clinical relevance due to its broad-spectrum antimicrobial potential. In this study, two experimental approaches were employed to evaluate its efficacy against both fastidious and non-fastidious microorganisms. Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) was determined using a colorimetric assay, while antimicrobial susceptibility was assessed via the agar disc diffusion method. Data analysis was carried out using EUCAST and NCCLS guidelines to interpret zone diameters and MIC values.

This study presents the first assessment of the morphometric traits, length-weight relationship, and condition factors of Sarpa salpa from the Ghar El Melh Lagoon in northern Tunisia. Specimens were sampled using traditional fishing gears to evaluate growth characteristics and population health. The results revealed a strong correlation between length and weight, with the species exhibiting isometric growth, indicating proportional increases in body dimensions.

This study reports the facile synthesis and enhanced phototocatalytic performance of a novel ternary AgI/ZnO/α-Fe2O3 nanocomposite. The catalyst was prepared through cost effective hydrothermal and doping method. The photocatalyst was designed to overcome the limitation of pure ZnO ( limited visible light absorption) and the recombination rate of charge carriers. The efficiency was evaluated through the degradation of malachite green (MG), a toxic water pollutant, under visible light irradiation.

Emerging extended reality (XR) platforms have transformed the landscape of collaborative learning by introducing immersive, embodied, and emotionally resonant environments. While existing research demonstrates XR’s capacity to heighten social presence and empathy (Jiménez-Cortés et al., 2016; Paananen et al., 2022), limited scholarship examines how learners interpret these experiences subjectively.

Background: Depression is a mental health condition that involves persistent sadness, loss of interest, and changes in thoughts, behaviors, and feelings, significantly impacting daily life. While depression is a real illness with available treatments like psychotherapy and medication, seeking help from a medical or mental health provider is crucial for diagnosis. According to the homoeopathic concept, physical disease can make changes in the mental/emotional state and vice versa. It attempts to go to the core of the disease in each individual patient.

Salicylic Acid (SA) is a phenolic compound and nomenclature of it being called as SA is because it was first isolated from the bark of willow plant bearing the taxonomic name, Salix alba. SA has been extensively studied for their physiological roles on growth and metabolism of plants, stress-protective properties against numerous abiotic stresses like heat, chilling, freezing, drought, flooding, oxidative, salt, radiation, heavy metals stresses and biotic stresses. The present review is to understand the role of SA as a potential plant growth regulator (PGR).

Le recours aux psychologues en milieu organisationnel demeure limité au Bénin, malgré la croissance des risques psychosociaux et des besoins en accompagnement psychologique. Cette étude vise à analyser les processus de légitimation sociale du recours aux psychologues dans les organisations béninoises, en identifiant les résistances, les représentations et les stratégies de changement associées.
