The development of biologically active compounds based on heterocyclic structures remains a promising direction in modern agrochemical research. In this study, a quinazolone–phosphite derivative synthesized from benzaldehyde and acetone was evaluated for its plant growth–stimulating activity. The biological effectiveness of the compound was assessed through standard germination and growth assays, including seed germination rate, root elongation, and biomass accumulation. The results demonstrated a significant enhancement in plant growth parameters compared to untreated controls, indicating the stimulatory potential of the synthesized compound. The presence of the phosphite group is assumed to contribute to improved nutrient assimilation and metabolic activation in plants, while the quinazolone moiety may enhance biological activity through its known bioactive properties. The findings suggest that this compound can be considered a promising candidate for application as an eco-friendly plant growth regulator in sustainable agriculture.

This paper examines improvements to the method for calculating building structures under a specific limit state not covered by the regulatory document currently in force in the Republic of Uzbekistan. In the design of buildings and structures, the calculation of limit state criteria boundaries is considered for the effects of short-term accidental loads (explosions, vehicle impacts, falling loads, earthquakes, avalanches, mudslides, etc.), the probability of which is low. The failure of load-bearing vertical and horizontal members distributed across the plan and height of a building may result in varying risks of failure for adjacent members. This paper examines the incorporation, within the design of buildings and structures, of a differentiated assessment of the contribution of their load-bearing members using the limit state method.

The study of proteins is a cornerstone of modern biochemistry and molecular biology, yet its inherent complexity presents significant pedagogical challenges. Traditional teaching methods, often reliant on passive learning through lectures and textbook readings, frequently fail to convey the dynamic, three-dimensional nature of protein structure and function. This can lead to a superficial understanding and diminished student engagement. This article provides a comprehensive analysis of innovative, student-centered pedagogical strategies designed to overcome these obstacles and foster a deeper, more intuitive comprehension of protein biochemistry. We explore a multi-faceted approach that integrates several effective methodologies. The analogy method is examined as a powerful tool for simplifying abstract concepts, such as comparing protein synthesis to a culinary recipe or protein structure to a complex Lego model, making the information more relatable and memorable. The critical role of visualization is highlighted, detailing the use of both digital and physical tools. This includes interactive 3D modeling software (e.g., PyMOL, ChimeraX) and virtual lab simulations (e.g., Labster), which allow students to virtually “see” and manipulate molecules, as well as hands-on physical modeling exercises using simple materials to build tangible representations of protein folding. Furthermore, we delve into the concept of gamification, showcasing how educational games like “Foldit” can transform the learning process into an engaging and competitive challenge, thereby increasing motivation and illustrating the real-world relevance of protein science. The article synthesizes these approaches into a cohesive framework, arguing that their combined application creates a rich, interactive, and multi-sensory learning environment. By shifting the focus from rote memorization to active problem-solving and conceptual understanding, these innovative methods not only improve academic performance but also cultivate critical thinking skills and a lasting interest in the field of biochemistry.

The necessity of systematically studying written heritage plays a significant role in understanding the spiritual roots of national values. This is because such sources call people to live through honest labor and encourage courage, generosity, and modesty. Like all peoples of the world, Turkic communities, even in ancient times, due to the demands of life itself, aspired to raise their children to become healthy, strong, hardworking, respectful toward elders and younger members of society, well-mannered, brave, patriotic, and - in short - individuals with high spiritual qualities. These ideals can be observed in the great written monuments inherited from our ancestors. One of such written monuments is the work “Devonu lugotit-turk” by Mahmud al-Kashgari. In this work, the customs, language, and lifestyle of the Turkic peoples of the XI th century are reflected through folk proverbs and epic narratives.

Short bowel syndrome remains one of the most challenging conditions in pediatric gastroenterology and digestive surgery, representing the leading cause of intestinal failure in children. The management of this condition has undergone substantial transformation over recent decades, evolving from a primarily supportive approach to an integrated strategy that combines sophisticated surgical techniques with targeted medical therapy. This review examines current evidence for optimizing and standardizing the sequential phases of care in pediatric short bowel syndrome, encompassing the acute post-resection period, the adaptation phase, and the maintenance stage. Particular attention is devoted to autologous gastrointestinal reconstructive surgery, including serial transverse enteroplasty and longitudinal intestinal lengthening, as well as the emerging role of glucagon-like peptide-2 analogs in enhancing intestinal adaptation. The available evidence demonstrates that serial transverse enteroplasty achieves bowel lengthening of 50 to 70 percent with subsequent parenteral nutrition weaning in 42 to 73 percent of patients, while teduglutide therapy reduces parenteral nutrition requirements by approximately 30 to 67 percent over three years of treatment. Optimal outcomes depend critically upon the integration of surgical and medical interventions within multidisciplinary intestinal rehabilitation programs, standardized patient selection criteria, and objective monitoring of adaptation through biomarkers such as citrulline. This review proposes a framework for stage-specific standardization that may improve enteral autonomy rates and long-term quality of life in this complex patient population.
