Background: The development of breast cancer is influenced by variations in the antioxidant enzymes. An essential part of the body's fundamental antioxidant defense mechanism is catalase. Numerous studies indicate that the catalase gene polymorphism rs1001179 acting a critical role in the genesis of cancer. Objective: In order to determine how the rs1001179 polymorphism affects catalase (CAT) activity and the progress of breast cancer (BC) in individuals with BC, this study was designed. Methods: A spectrophotometric test was used to measure the amount of CAT enzymatic activity in serum samples. Following the extraction of genomic DNA from the blood samples, we used restriction fragment length polymorphism, polymerase chain reaction, and electrophoresis to evaluate the presence of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs1001179. Results: According to the findings, the BC group had lower CAT activity (10.605±8.490 U/ml) than the control group (16.895±8.100 U/ml). The homozygous mutants (TT) and heterozygous carriers (CT) were fewer likely to acquire BC, with odd ratios of 1.48 and 22.2, with P value 0.64 and 0.032 for the two genotypes, respectively. Between the study groups, there was a significant difference in the incidence of the T allele (P value 0.025 and OR 3.5). The wild-type CC genotype and C allele exhibited higher CAT activity than the mutant (TT and CT) and the T allele within the patient group. The results of this study propose that the CAT (rs1001179) polymorphism may contribute to the hereditary risk of BC and might be utilized as a possible tumor susceptibility marker. Conclusion: The rs1001179 SNP increased reactive oxygen species, particularly hydrogen peroxide, via decreasing CAT enzyme activity. The key factor that contributes to the development and spread of cancer is DNA damage, which can result from this buildup.

This study investigates the enduring legacy of apartheid in South Africa and its influence on contemporary crime patterns. It aims to critically examine how historical policies of racial segregation, economic exclusion, and systemic violence continue to shape socio-economic disparities, social trauma, and criminal behavior in marginalized communities. Despite the formal end of apartheid over three decades ago, South Africa continues to experience high levels of crime and social inequality. The structural inequalities and intergenerational trauma resulting from apartheid-era policies remain underexplored in relation to contemporary crime, creating a gap in understanding how historical injustices contribute to current criminal trends. The study provides a comprehensive analysis linking apartheid-era policies to present-day crime, integrating both historical and recent research. It offers actionable insights for policymakers, law enforcement agencies, community leaders, and other stakeholders to design interventions that address the root causes of crime while promoting social cohesion and justice. The study employs a systematic, qualitative research approach, combining document analysis, literature review, and policy analysis. It reviews historical records, socio-economic reports, law enforcement data, and contemporary studies to identify patterns and relationships between apartheid legacies and current crime dynamics. Systematic Approach: Identification of key apartheid policies and socio-economic structures, Analysis of their long-term impact on spatial segregation, economic inequality, and social trauma, Examination of contemporary crime patterns in historically disadvantaged communities, Integration of stakeholder roles, policies, and interventions to assess co-impact. Apartheid policies have created persistent socio-economic inequalities and spatial segregation that contribute to elevated crime rates. Intergenerational trauma exacerbates social instability and perpetuates cycles of violent and property crime. Multi-stakeholder collaboration including government, law enforcement, community leaders, CBOs, oversight bodies, and private security is critical for effective crime prevention. Evidence-based interventions addressing structural inequality, trauma, and community engagement can reduce crime and promote social cohesion. The study concludes that addressing South Africa’s crime challenges requires acknowledging and mitigating the enduring effects of apartheid. Integrated, evidence-based, and community-focused strategies are essential to breaking the cycle of crime, fostering equity, and enhancing social stability. The findings provide theoretical, policy, and practical guidance for tackling the complex socio-historical roots of crime in post-apartheid South Africa

This research investigates the critical intersection of ethics, gender, and development, aiming to understand how ethically grounded, gender-sensitive approaches can lead to more just and sustainable development outcomes. Despite decades of global development efforts, many projects have historically neglected ethical principles and gender equality, resulting in limited impact, unintended harm, and the reinforcement of patriarchal structures. There remains a lack of cohesive frameworks that fully integrate feminist ethics and core ethical principles into mainstream development planning and evaluation. The study employs a critical literature review methodology, analyzing peer-reviewed academic journals, policy reports from international development organizations, and key theoretical texts. It is grounded in feminist theory, the capability approach, and global frameworks such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 5 on gender equality. The research identifies that development projects lacking ethical grounding often exacerbate existing inequalities. A feminist ethic, especially one rooted in care and justice, is shown to be instrumental in addressing systemic gender-based disparities. Furthermore, gender-sensitive projects that integrate ethical frameworks demonstrate more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable outcomes. However, there is a persistent challenge in effectively measuring long-term impacts on gender equality and sustainability. Embedding ethical principles and feminist perspectives into development is not optional it is essential for achieving meaningful, transformative change. This study concludes that ethically guided, gender-responsive development can empower marginalized groups, particularly women, and foster inclusive social and environmental progress. It calls for robust accountability mechanisms, participatory evaluation tools, and continued advocacy to ensure development efforts do not perpetuate injustice but rather dismantle it.

This study investigates ethical, sustainable, and participatory approaches to poverty eradication. It aims to explore how integrating ethical principles, sustainability frameworks, and participatory methodologies can enhance the effectiveness and legitimacy of poverty reduction strategies, particularly in low-income and marginalized communities. Despite decades of global poverty alleviation efforts, a significant portion of the world’s population remains impoverished. Many interventions prioritize economic growth without adequately addressing systemic inequalities, ethical concerns, and environmental sustainability. Furthermore, the exclusion of affected communities from decision-making processes has undermined the relevance and long-term impact of many poverty reduction programs. A systematic literature review was conducted, analyzing peer-reviewed articles, case studies, and international development reports published between 1997 and 2023. The review focused on interdisciplinary sources addressing poverty through the lenses of ethics, sustainability, and participatory development. Inclusion criteria prioritized empirical studies with demonstrated impact or policy relevance. This study synthesizes knowledge across disciplines to propose a multidimensional framework for ethical and inclusive poverty eradication. It highlights how ethical theories sustainability principles, and participatory tools can work together to address both the symptoms and root causes of poverty more effectively than isolated interventions. Key Findings: poverty is multidimensional, encompassing deprivation in capabilities, agency, and social inclusion. Ethical approaches demand global responsibility and local empowerment, challenging top-down models. Participatory methods, such as community budgeting and design, increase local ownership and relevance of interventions. Gender-sensitive strategies are essential for addressing inequality and ensuring equitable development outcomes. Ethical, sustainable, and participatory poverty eradication requires a paradigm shift from narrowly economic solutions to inclusive frameworks that prioritize human dignity, environmental responsibility, and social justice. By embracing these principles, policymakers and practitioners can create more resilient, equitable, and lasting solutions to poverty. Future research should focus on localized applications of this integrated approach and its effectiveness in diverse socio-political settings.
