This plant is popularly known as jasmine, jasmine-mango, frangipani, pagoda tree, or "ai Santo Antonio. Studies reveal some critical biological activities of your polar extract, such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antitumor, and anticancer.

Objective: To estimate the prevalence and risk factors associated with Metabolic Syndrome of industry employees treated at an outpatient clinic in Vitória da Conquista-BA. Materials and Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach was carried out, followed by an epidemiological character in which the variables (factor and effect) were observed at the same historical moment. A sample of 150 collaborators was used where biochemical, sociodemographic profile and association with comorbidities were observed.

The discussion on education within the Brazilian Prison System is strongly connected with the social function of the school, once the criminal policy is directly related to the failure of the prison system, taking into account its primary objectives, viz. resocialize and insert its subjects into society, without the prospect of relapsing into the prison system.

Agriculture is one of the most important segments for humanity as well as the production of food generated by Family Farming. From this, the objective was to study the problems faced by the community in the agricultural field and under the eyes of teachers of the agroecology discipline in education. -learning. Area of study: Our Lady of Nazareth community, Capanema-Pará. From the observations, 92% were male and 8% female, aged 28 to 78 years, 62% of these respondent shave education from 1st to 8th grade, 15% have high school and 8% cannotread and write.

Bauhinia forficata (BF) is widely used by the Brazilian population to treat different diseases. The scientific evidences of the hypoglycemic activity of this plant, led to a growing interest about the pharmacological properties resulted by the presence of bioactive compounds present in the leaves, flowers, stems, roots, and seeds. This study intended to carry out a bibliographic survey highlighting the main pharmacological activities of BF.

Today, the management practices of religious organizations have become more complex, requiring ecclesiastical managers to use the administration's tools and techniques. Strategic planning is an important management process. In religious organizations, it provides a broad view of the institution and has an important role in assisting managers in decision making.

To examine the combined effects of soil moisture and nitrogen availability on the responses of growth and chlorophyll fluorescence to light, seedlings of Gmelina arborea were grown under full sunlight or 50% sunlight, four moisture regimes (M1: 20-30%; M2: 40-50%; M3: 60-70%; M4: 80-90% field capacity) and four nitrogen levels (N1: 3 g/kg; N2: 3.75 g/kg; N3: 4.5 g/kg; N4: 5.25 g/kg) for six months. Full sunlight suppressed height and stem volume whereas it increased biomass production. Moisture elevation augmented morphological traits and biomass production while reducing root: shoot.

Cette recherche qualitative s’appuie à la fois sur des entretiens semi-directifs et des observations directes et/ou participantes pour identifier les déterminants à la faible performance des filles dans les sciences, mathématiques et technologies (SMT) au Burkina Faso. Les résultats montrent que la faible présence et la faible performance des filles dans les SMT sont dues à des déterminants aussi bien internes qu’externes à l’école.

The need to improve phosphorus availability from rock phosphate with readily available product is of prime importance in crop production. The overall objective of the research was to improve P availability from RP using MP and the subsequent effect on biomass nutrient concentration and P uptake. The research was conducted at OPRI of Ghana, Kade-Kusi in the semi-deciduous zone of the country. Soil available P, seedlings frond nutrient content and P uptake was evaluated on oil palm seedlings at the nursery. The study was a 4 × 4 factorial experiment arranged in RCBD with 3 replications.

Objective: To describe the methodological development process of making an educational video in health. Materials and Methods: Methodological study of health educational video development using a model consisting of pre-production, production and post-production phases. It used the theoretical framework composed of three steps, namely: pre-production, which includes the elaboration of the synopsis, theme, script and storyboard; production and post-production.
