Alfred Baeumler made some interesting contributions to education from the point of view of the community. He states for example, that intellectualism is the main prejudice of environmental thinking with regard to the educational process. Also, only where man is recognized in his reality and educated according to this reality can the science of education arise in a permanent form. He also discusses the concept of community in Rousseau, Fichte and Pestalozzi. Finally, Schiller’s Wallenstein and Goethe’s Iphigenia in Tauris are commented.

Background: Uterine rupture is linked to high rates of maternal mortality, especially in developing countries. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the factors contributing to uterine rupture and the resulting neonatal outcomes in Sudan. Methodology: This study comprised of a series of 26 women presented with uterine rupture to the department of maternity at El-Obeid Teaching Hospital, El-Obeid, North Kordofan state, Sudan. The patients presented within one-year time. Results: In this particular group of patients, the neonatal population exhibited the following distribution: 19.2% (5 out of 26) were classified as Alive and well (WA), 23% (6 out of 26) required admission to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), 46.2% (12 out of 26) presented with Fresh Still Birth (FSB), and 11.6% (3 out of 26) displayed manifestations of Macerated Still Birth (MSB). Conclusion: Various factors can impact the outcomes of neonates following uterine rupture, such as the availability of facilities and demographic factors. The majority of newborns delivered showed unfavorable conditions.

This paper investigates the heat transfer of multi-layer coated tools. An analogous coating layer technique is used to compare multi-layered coated tools to mono-layer coating tools and develop a heat transfer model for mono-layered coating tools. The equivalent heat capacity, density, and thermal conductivity of the coating are determined based on the geometric size, initial conditions, and boundary conditions, given the tool rake face temperature. The heat transfer efficiency of the multilayer coating is significantly influenced by the coating layers, the thickness of the layer, and the coating material. The results show that the equivalent coating layer approach is suitable for calculating coating temperature enhancement in the cutting heat transfer. The calculation of cutting temperatures for multilayer-coated tools was conducted and subsequently compared to experimental findings, revealing an error margin of around 10%. The findings of this study indicate that analytical models are also suitable for modelling cutting temperatures in multi- layer coating designs.

Batteries are becoming an essential component of many different applications, such as memory backup, clocks, calculators, lighting, portable electronic devices, and photographic equipment, advancements in the electronics sector. Pure metal nanoparticles can be created either destructively or constructively using metal precursors. Because of the plasma resonance feature, it has special opto-electrical properties. Size, shape, and fact govern the metal nanoparticles replicate. Silver, gold, iron, cobalt, zinc, copper, and cadmium nanoparticles are the most prevalent metal nanoparticles. The electrical characteristics of the flower-shaped nanostructure when connected to the Pt nanoparticles are noticeably better than the typical electro-catalytic characteristics of the spherical nanoparticles. Transitional metal oxides are considered vital materials in industry because of their vast variety of magnetic, thermal, chemical, and electrical characteristics, as demonstrated by the evaluation of functional inorganic solids. The corrosive resistance of the metal at high voltages should be taken into account. Al and Ti are therefore excellent options because of the inert layer that forms on their surfaces at high potential. Building a porous metal current collector is therefore crucial to stabilizing alkali metal anodes with improved cycle and safety performance.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a global health issue due to its prevalence and catastrophic health effects. Synthetic hypoglycemic agents can treat diabetes, but they have side effects. Therefore, natural remedies for diabetes are now gaining popularity. Marine benthic algae are rich in phytochemicals and other bioactive compounds. Inhibition of carbohydrate hydrolyzing enzymes in-vitro and lower blood glucose levels in-vivo during fasting and postprandial testing imply seaweed extracts and their bioactive ingredients may treat diabetes. This study investigated the phytochemical properties of Asparagopsis taxiformis from the southern part of St. Martin Island in Bangladesh and examined the anti-diabetic activity of its 50% ethanolic extracts in-vitro and in-vivo. After establishing traditional phytochemical presence, total phenolic and flavonoid content was estimated, and an in-vitro alpha-amylase inhibitory activity test was performed. In-vitro anti-diabetic investigation shows that 50% ethanolic extract of Asparagopsis taxiformis reduces diabetes less than acarbose. In-vivo anti-diabetic tests also showed similar results compared to the control group when their blood glucose level was measured. After 14 days of treatment with the 50% ethanolic extract of Asparagopsis taxiformis, the treated group of mice didn’t show any considerable lowering activity when their body weight, lipid profile, kidney function, and liver function (SGPT, SGOT) were compared to the control group. Though Asparagopsis taxiformis has manifold benefits, 50% ethanolic extract of this alga didn’t show any antidiabetic properties suggesting more studies in different solvents are required to evaluate the antidiabetic properties.

A water birth is a type of delivery when the mother labours and delivers the baby in a warm pool or bathtub. This review article seeks to present a thorough overview of water birth, covering its potential advantages, potential risks, and the body of existing research. We examine the physiological mechanics underlying water birth, the benefits it provides to both the mother and the newborn, as well as the potential drawbacks and ethical dilemmas surrounding this method. To assist medical professionals and expectant parents in making knowledgeable decisions about water birth, a critical analysis of the pertinent literature is offered.

High-fidelity simulation (HFS) stands out as a pivotal asset in nursing education, particularly for honing medication administration skills. This review, aligned with PRISMA guidelines, analyzed 148 studies spanning 2012 to 2023, with only seven meeting inclusion criteria. Despite methodological limitations in the selected studies, a consistent trend suggests that HFS significantly enhances knowledge, competence, and confidence in safe medication administration among undergraduate nursing students. Importantly, the selection of HFS or other approaches should be contingent upon specific goals and intended learning outcomes. Notably, intervention groups consistently outperformed control groups, underscoring HFS's efficacy in elevating students' capabilities. However, the overall quality of the included studies was moderate, highlighting the need for more robust methodologies in future research. This study underscores HFS as a valuable approach in nursing education, providing essential insights for effective teaching practices. It emphasizes the imperative to consider alternative approaches based on educational goals and learning outcomes while advocating for further research on cost-effectiveness, measurement tools, and optimal simulation session duration.
