Monitoring, Reclamation and Management of Salt-Affected Lands
Salt-affected soils are present in nearly every irrigated area of the world and also occur in non-irrigated croplands and rangelands. Thus, virtually no land is immune to salinization. Therefore, to sustain life on earth, it is vital and urgent to control these problems and find innovative and comprehensive ways to use these extensive salt-affected soils and marginal water resources, at least for agricultural purposes. Reclamation, or simply the minimization of the effect of salinity and/or sodicity, is important. In this respect, the proper use of water for both plant growth, soil salinity, and sodicity control is probably of the greatest importance. Most of the existing literature concentrates on water and salt regimes and processes at field scale, but few explore soil carbon and nutrient cycling, which has aroused considerable debate over how to translate water and salt regime regulation into sustainable utilization and development in saline-alkaline land.

Current Trends, Innovations and Issues in Nursing Practice and Education
The development of health sciences in recent years has made it necessary to implement changes in the training of health professionals from the undergraduate level. This training must include the acquisition of knowledge, skills, and attitudes that ultimately improve patient safety and quality of care. Concurrently, the use of different tools to assess the level of knowledge in certain areas of the training of nurses and analysis of the different study plans allow training to be oriented to the specific needs of each reality. Nowadays, it is necessary to develop, plan, and utilize new teaching methodologies and tools that allow us to assess and measure the level of knowledge of professionals and students and evaluate the quality of training at the different levels of care. The use of tools and methodologies that enhance virtual environments, advanced practices, gamification, and traditional methodologies must be implemented to improve care practice, optimize and manage health resources, and promote teamwork. These training innovations must not be excluded from undergraduate training. However, they must be applied to the continuous training of active professionals, who must ensure that they are constantly updated to develop their activity by adapting to new work environments. Teaching innovation in healthcare practice settings represents an essential challenge for teachers in charge of training future nurses and active professionals.
Primary health care and continuous quality improvement
For most people, the main point of access to the health system is through primary health care (PHC). The fundamental premise of primary health care is that all people, everywhere, have the right to receive the appropriate care in their community. Primary health care attends to the majority of a person's health needs throughout their lifetime, including physical, mental and social wellbeing. PHC is people-centred rather than disease-centred. It is a whole-of-society approach that includes health promotion, disease prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and palliative care.Primary health care and continuous quality improvement: An evidence-based guide provides an accessible contemporary guide on implementing continuous quality improvement (CQI) in PHC settings. The authors draw together two decades of practical experience and established leadership in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health in Australia to provide guidance for health services and their staff, policymakers, researchers, funders and support organisations in an international context.Primary health care and continuous quality improvement provides an in-depth understanding of how CQI can be used to strengthen health systems by: - identifying core concepts underpinning CQI in PHC and how CQI can improve health care quality, health equity and population health;- explaining how CQI data is used in a comprehensive approach to PHC to measure quality, and how data is generated and used for improving care;- describing CQI tools and techniques used by PHC teams;- offering guidance in interpreting data and addressing variation in care quality;- providing case studies in maternal health, children's health, mental health and other areas, to describe the application of CQI to improve clinical care;- guiding practitioners on how to collaborate and build data systems for CQI, and strengthen links between communities and PHC services.Continuous quality improvement is everybody's business, and Primary health care and continuous quality improvement explains the strategic use of CQI at different levels of the health system and across sectors to achieve and sustain large-scale health improvement.
Disability Across Continents
This book offers a comprehensive exploration of the shifting landscape of disability rights and policies across two culturally rich and diverse continents. By adopting a multidisciplinary approach, the book integrates historical, cultural, socioeconomic, and technological perspectives on disability, providing readers with a broad understanding of the issues faced by disabled individuals in Asia and Africa. It examines the evolution of disability rights over time and the varying impacts of these changes on different communities. From traditional beliefs to modern societal structures, the book highlights how indigenous knowledge and local practices influence attitudes toward disability. A unique feature of the book is its focus on underexplored areas, such as the role of media in shaping disability narratives, the importance of sports in promoting social inclusion, and the rise of emerging technologies like AI and assistive devices in enhancing accessibility. By also focusing on grassroots movements, the growing influence of young advocates, and the need for sustainable future policies, the book not only reflects on past and present challenges but also offers forward-looking solutions. It serves as a vital resource for understanding how policy changes and cultural shifts can lead to more inclusive societies across Asia and Africa.
Adopting Sustainable Dietary Patterns
As many aspects of the food system's sustainability occur between the production and distribution of foods, the importance of consumers as a primary driver for effectively integrating sustainability efforts cannot be forgotten. This Special Issue on "Adopting Sustainable Dietary Patterns: Effects of Food Labeling, Food Choices, and Eating Behaviors" presents data across relevant themes that aim to contextualize factors that can assist with the integration of one or more domains of sustainability in food choices and dietary patterns. A range of topics are discussed that highlight approaches for sustainable food systems that are underpinned by the needs of consumers and their food environments; while aligning with global objectives around health and nutrition, ecosystem preservation, economic prosperity, and social equality. The specific themes that emerge within the compendium of research in this Special Issue include the following: 1. The examination of the sociodemographic characteristics of food environments; 2. The nutritional profiling of plant-based diets and targeted consumer needs; 3. The role of policy and regulatory modernization in changing food behaviors; and 4. The importance of consumer beliefs and value systems that affect food choices.
