Recent Complicated Childbirth Aid Protocol Inspired by Luba-Kasai Therapeutic Practice| Chapter 5 | New Frontiers in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 5

 Improved maternal health remains a major priority for the United Nations in general and the World Health Organization in particular, both of which have prioritised it in the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDO). Surprisingly, physiological rather than psychosocial deaths are more commonly cited as causes of complications during childbirth and pregnancy, whereas in our least developed countries, where maternal mortality is high, cultural and psychological issues expose women to unwanted pregnancies and psychic traumas that manifest themselves during parturition in the form of complications. As a result of eclampsia, haemorrhage, and work defects, the woman and her baby are at risk of death. In this paper, we propose a protocol for assisting childbirth that is based on the therapeutic practises of our African cultures. Indeed, our forefathers were able to solve delivery difficulties through speech. The interview with the woman who had problems with her life and relationships created a catharsis in her, and her childbirth labour and delivery returned to normal. The protocol is made up of three parts: prophylactic psychodynamic interview Psychoeducation and psychological support are two terms that are often used interchangeably. This protocol is based on the humanistic theories of Carl Rogers and Abraham Maslow, as well as Alfonso Caycedo's sophrology, and involves subjecting the parturient to a relaxation exercise involving alternate breaths and haptonomy in a helping relationship in order to allow communication between the woman and her unborn child. This study will demonstrate the value of incorporating our complex birthing aid protocol into the existing psychotherapy arsenal in order to improve maternal health during childbirth.

Greening Regional Airports: A Vision for Carbon Neutral Infrastructure | Chapter 12 | Contemporary Perspective on Science, Technology and Research Vol. 3

 This study provides an overview of the energy demand of a regional airport, divided into individual time horizons. The electrification of aircraft systems raises the question of whether airports will be among the largest electricity consumers in our infrastructure in the future. Sustainability and especially emission reductions are significant challenges for airports that are currently being addressed. The Clean Sky 2 project GENESIS addresses the environmental sustainability of hybrid-electric 50-passenger aircraft systems in a life cycle perspective to support the development of a technology roadmap for the transition to sustainable and competitive electric aircraft systems. This article originates from the GENESIS research and describes various options for ground power supply at a regional airport. Potential solutions for airport infrastructure with a short (2030), medium (2040), and long (2050) time horizon are proposed. In addition to the environmental and conservation benefi...

Alkali Element Modification of Glucose Molecules as a Method to Dissolve Cancer Cells | Chapter 12 | New Visions in Medicine and Medical Science Vol. 4

  The present study highlights about alkali element modification of glucose molecules as a method to dissolve cancer cells. The central regulation of the mechanisms governing cell proliferation has little effect on cancer cells. Cancer cells are entirely independent of the central command and divide and proliferate on their own, making it challenging to activate their response mechanism. Precisely, this is the reason why they are at risk to the health of humans and/or any biological entities. Instead of trying to reconnect the central command of the growth control mechanism to cancer cells that are already out of the range, we present a method of using the cancer cell’s own irresponsive and uncontrolled growth mechanism to their disadvantage and destroy the cancer cells. We found that this is achievable in an atomic/molecular level study of the glucose molecule, which is the primary food source used for growth and energy generation by all cells in the body, including the cancer cel...

Empowerment and Leader Member Exchange towards Organizational Citizenship Behavior Readiness among Government Workforce in Malaysia | Book Publisher International

  State agencies are among the most significant entities that represent the public's needs, and their programmes are essential to a state's and the nation's economic growth and development. State agencies have been rife by public concerns for years, as demonstrated by the Public Complaints Bureau, as problems of inefficiency in service quality and delivery have yet to meet the public's standards. With the support of 15 employees from state agencies on Malaysia's east coast, this study aims to achieve three targets. The first and second objectives are to investigate the ties between leader-member exchange (LMX) and OCB empowerment. The final aim is to define the most significant factors that affect OCB willingness. A total of 288 people took part in the survey, which was conducted using a cluster sampling process. The survey items had achieved the necessary reliability, according to the pilot test results, and some sub-dimensions were renamed after factor analysis. ...
