It is scientifically proven that Taekwon-do methods in the process of sports education serve to form not only physical qualities, but also volitional, disciplinary and motivational characteristics of the individual. The study highlights the didactic principles of the educational process, age and individual psychological characteristics, the role of reflexive activity and internal motivation mechanisms. The possibilities of developing self-control, stress resistance and social adaptation skills in students through the use of Taekwon-do methods are analyzed.

The target salts were prepared via controlled neutralization of phosphoric acid with the corresponding alkali metal bases under varying temperature, pH, and concentration conditions. The effects of these parameters on product yield, phase purity, and crystallization behavior were systematically investigated. The obtained samples were characterized using physicochemical methods, including solubility assessment, pH measurement, and thermal analysis. The results demonstrated that precise control of the neutralization degree and crystallization temperature significantly improves product quality and process efficiency. Agrochemical evaluation indicated that the synthesized dihydrogen phosphates possess favorable nutrient availability and buffering characteristics suitable for fertilizer applications. The optimized synthesis approach provides a cost-effective and scalable route for producing high-purity NaH₂PO₄ and KH₂PO₄ for agricultural use.

While traditional prevention has centered on vaccination and basic hygiene, contemporary approaches demand a layered, multi-system strategy. This article synthesizes current evidence and expert consensus on modern preventive paradigms that extend from the individual to the community and policy levels. It reviews the evolution of immunization strategies, including novel vaccine platforms and expanded indications. It examines the critical role of environmental control, from household air pollution to ambient air quality. Furthermore, it analyzes the integration of novel biomedical and non-pharmaceutical interventions post-pandemic, and the necessity of addressing health equity as a foundational component of prevention. The objective is to provide a comprehensive framework for pediatricians, public health practitioners, and policymakers to implement effective, contemporary strategies that reduce the incidence and severity of respiratory disease in the pediatric population.

The etiology of these obstructions is diverse, ranging from congenital atresias to functional disorders. While classic clinical and radiographic signs form the diagnostic cornerstone, advances in prenatal imaging and postnatal modalities have significantly refined diagnostic pathways. This article reviews the contemporary etiological landscape of neonatal intestinal obstruction, emphasizing the relative prevalence and pathological basis of common and rare causes. It further delineates a modern, systematic diagnostic algorithm that integrates prenatal suspicion, clinical presentation, targeted radiography, and advanced contrast studies. The objective is to provide a comprehensive framework that expedites accurate diagnosis, facilitates timely surgical referral, and ultimately improves neonatal outcomes by minimizing diagnostic delay and its associated complications.

This condition is not a simple consequence of energy imbalance but arises from a complex convergence of determinants operating across multiple levels. This article synthesizes current evidence to argue that childhood obesity is a heterogeneous disorder fueled by the dynamic interaction of biological susceptibility, learned behaviors, and powerful socioecological influences. A deep understanding of this convergence is paramount, as the prevailing paradigm of generic lifestyle advice has proven insufficient to reverse global trends. We examine the foundational role of genetic, epigenetic, and prenatal factors that establish individual metabolic thresholds. Subsequently, we explore how these biological predispositions interface with modifiable behavioral patterns related to dietary intake, physical activity, and sedentary behaviors, which are themselves shaped by familial practices and the broader living environment. Crucially, these behaviors are embedded within and constrained by layered socioecological systems, including household food insecurity, neighborhood design, marketing ecosystems, and macroeconomic policies. The review concludes that effective prevention demands a stratified, systems-oriented approach. Moving beyond one-size-fits-all recommendations, future strategies must integrate biological risk stratification with targeted interventions that address the specific environmental and behavioral drivers prevalent in different populations. This requires synergistic efforts from clinicians, public health professionals, urban planners, and policymakers to create equitable environments conducive to healthy growth for all children.
