Pregnancy and insulin sensitivity in relation to Exercise training (A scoping review)
Abstract: This study is aimed to estimate the relation of exercise training on insulin sensitivity and pregnancy. Twenty females at the second trimester of pregnancy participated in this study. Their age was 20 to 40 years with BMI less than 35 km2. They divided into two equal group. The study group (A) performed exercise program for four weeks, 3 sessions per week. While the control group maintain their daily life activity routine. There was a significance difference in the mean value of insulin sensitivity level in group A and there was a significance difference in the mean value between groups in favoring to group (A). So, it could be concluded that exercise training is an effective method on insulin sensitivity during pregnancy.
Keywords: pregnancy, insulin senstivity, exercise training.

Structural study using <sup>29</sup> Si and <sup>27</sup> Al Solid State MAS NMR and compressive strength analysis of metakaolin-based geopolymer paste
Geopolymers are hardened aluminosilicate gel that develop strength via the crosslinking of tetrahedral silicate and aluminate. Past Research has highlighted a wide range of mechanical properties of geopolymer synthesised from various aluminosilicate materials. This research focuses on studying the effect of variation in the percentages of metakaolin, sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide at a fixed water to solids ratio on the development of geopolymer structure and compressive strength. Kaolin was thermally treated and XRD and FTIR traced the changes in crystalline Kaolin and its transformation into a more disordered structure of metakaolin. Characterisation techniques were used for the study of geopolymer produced. FTIR analysis illustrated the changes in the characteristic bands of metakaolin after being activated with sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide to form geopolymer. The 27Al and 29Si Solid State MAS NMR spectra confirmed the formation of polymerised tetrahedral silicate interconnected to tetrahedral aluminate in the form of Q4(4Al) and Q4(3Al) which are responsible for the attained compressive strength of geopolymer. The produced geopolymers exhibited high early compressive strength and high 28-day compressive strength in the range of 30–81 MPa. This promotes the use of geopolymers as a replacement to Ordinary Portland cement especially in targeted construction applications.This study is part of Ph.D of author Heba Fouad and the PhD was a fellowship granted by Yousef Jameel Foundation. Also, Heba Fouad also would like to show her gratitude to Dr. Abdel Hamid Emwas and Dr. Mariusz Jaremko for conducting Solid State MAS NMR samples in KAUST Core lab
Relationship between Nursing Students' Motivation to Learn and Their Competency Self-Efficacy at Secondary Technical Schools of Nursing
Abstract: Motivation to learn and competency self-efficacy(CSE) are two of the most influential factors that affect nursing students academic performance and clinical success. Aim: Investigate the relationship between nursing students' motivation to learn and their competency self-efficacy. Study design: A descriptive correlational research design was utilized to conduct this study. Setting: in 6 schools (3 female- 3male) out of 19 Secondary Nursing Technical Schools in Kafr El-Shikh governorate. Subjects: included Nursing Students in the previously selected settings (n=278) (134 female and 144 male). Tools: Two tools were used to conduct this study: Motivation to learn questionnaire and Nursing competency self-efficacy scale (NCSE). Results: The finding of this study revealed that the vast majority of the studied nursing students had high level of motivation to learn and nursing students had high level of competency self-efficacy. Conclusion: There was high levels of nursing students’ motivation to learn and high levels of competency self-efficacy (CSE). A statistically significant relationship was noticed between motivation to learn and competency self-efficacy. Recommendations: Develop strategies to motivate nursing students to learn and improve their competency self-efficacy.
Keywords: Motivation to learn, Nursing competency self-efficacy, Nursing students.

Insulin sensitivity and plasma glucose response to aerobic exercise in pregnant women at risk for gestational diabetes mellitus
Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the common complications that occur during pregnancy. Early intervention is essential to prevent the development of the disease in the non-pregnant state but also helpful in preventing the occurrence of GDM. The aim of the study was to assess the effect of aerobic exercises on insulin sensitivity and fasting plasma glucose level in pregnant women with risk for gestational diabetes mellitus.Materials and methods: Forty multigravidae women between 20-24 weeks of gestation with risk for GDM were randomly selected (age range was 25-35 years), body mass index ranged from 30-35 kg/m². Women were divided into two equal groups: intervention group (A), which followed an aerobic exercise program in the form of walking on treadmill, three times weekly until the end of 37 weeks of gestation in addition to diet control. Control group (B) which received diet control with usual care given by obstetricians and midwives. Evaluation of the women in both groups was carried out before and after treatment program through assessment of fasting blood glucose and insulin levels.Results: There was a highly statistically significance decrease in fasting blood glucose level, fasting insulin level in both groups where the p value was 0.0001 favoring group (A).Conclusion: Moderate intensity of aerobic exercises were effective in reducing fasting blood glucose level and fasting insulin level in pregnant women with risk for gestational diabetes mellitus.Keywords: Aerobic exercise, Blood glucose level, Insulin level, Pregnancy, Maternal diabete

Ledarskapsstilar och prestationsnivåer inom fastighetsmäklarbranschen: En kvalitativ studie
Titel: Ledarskapsstilar och prestationsnivåer inom fastighetsmäklarbranschen: En kvalitativ studie Nivå: Examensarbete på grundnivå i ämnet företagsekonomi Författare: Maral Gankhuyag och Heba Saied Handledare: Lars-Johan Åge Datum: 22-05-2024 Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att identifiera och jämföra samband mellan olika ledarskapsstilar inom HRM-filosofier (Human resource management) och anställda med provisionsbaserad lön inom tre olika prestationsnivåer, med inriktning till fastighetsmäklaryrket. Metod: Studien använde en kvalitativ, deduktiv ansats och inkluderade tio semistrukturerade intervjuer med registrerade fastighetsmäklare i Stockholm och Uppsala, indelade i tre prestationsnivåer baserat på årlig omsättning. Intervjufrågorna utformades utifrån den teoretiska ramen. Resultat och slutsats: Slutsatsen visar att olika ledarskapsstilar inom HRM påverkar fastighetsmäklares prestationer. Mjuk HRM, som betonar anställdas välbefinnande, är särskilt effektiv på lägre prestationsnivåer. Hård HRM, med fokus på strukturerade utvecklingsprocesser och belöningssystem, ökar produktiviteten på alla nivåer, särskilt bland högpresterande mäklare. Examensarbetets bidrag: Studiens bidrag till företagsekonomi ligger i dess fokus på praktiskt ledarskap och sambanden mellan ledarnas agerande och fastighetsmäklares prestationer. Detta kan inspirera utvecklingen av ledarskap inom fastighetsmäklarföretag för att förbättra anställdas prestationer, öka omsättningen och skapa en trygg arbetsmiljö. Förslag till fortsatt forskning: En kvantitativ studie med fler respondenter och utforskning av olika geografiska områden, branscher, prestationsmått och kulturella influenser på HRM-strategier skulle vara mycket intressant att utforska. Nyckelord: Ledarskapsfilosofier, högpresterande, fastighetsmäklare, HRM-praktikerTitle: Leadership Styles and Performance Levels in the Real Estate Brokerage Industry: A Qualitative Study Level: Bachelor's Thesis in Business Administration Author: Maral Gankhuyag and Heba Saied Supervisor: Lars-Johan Åge Date: 22-05-2024 Aim: The purpose of this thesis is to identify and compare the relationships between different leadership styles within HRM philosophies (Human Resource Management) and commission-based employees across three different performance levels, focusing on the real estate profession. Method: The study used a qualitative, abductive approach and included ten semi-structured interviews with registered real estate agents in Stockholm and Uppsala, divided into three performance levels based on annual turnover. The interview questions were designed based on the theoretical framework. Results and Conclusion: The conclusion shows that different leadership styles within HRM affect real estate agents' performance. Soft HRM, emphasizing employee well-being, is particularly effective at lower performance levels. Hard HRM, focusing on structured development processes and reward systems, increases productivity at all levels, especially among high-performing agents. Thesis Contribution: The study contributes to business administration by focusing on practical leadership and the relationships between leadership actions and real estate agents' performance. This can inspire the development of leadership within real estate companies to improve employee performance, increase turnover, and create a safe work environment. Suggestions for Further Research: A quantitative study with more respondents and exploration of different geographic areas, industries, performance measures, and cultural influences on HRM strategies would be highly interesting to explore. Keywords: Leadership Philosophies, High-Performing, Real Estate Agents, HRM Practice
