The Importance of Time Management in Nursing
Authors: Boduç Naile , Baykal Ülkü
Published: May 2021

Time is a unique, scarce and finite source, no matter what is done, it cannot be brought back any more and it cannot be replaced when used. Time has a great importance for human life, so its effective use is an inevitable necessity in terms of balancing work with private life. Time management, which means using the owned time optimally and effectively is considered as planning and organizing how to divide an individual’s time between specific activities that should be done. It is particularly important for nurses to manage their time effectively. Because the time wasted by nurses is the time required to be allocated for the patient but not the time spent with themselves which affects the quality of healthcare negatively. Effective time management in nursing leads to improvement of managerial talents, protection of human resources, reduction of stress and eventually, increases job satisfaction and improves mental health. Nurses need to improve their time management skills in order to provide health care services with high quality. The aim of this review is to contribute to raise awareness of time management in nurses, by mentioning about the concept and importance of time and time management, methods and advantages of using the time effectively and factors causing improper use of time.

Aim: This study was conducted to compare the professional commitment of the midwives from the X and Y generations. Method: This research with descriptive design was carried out among midwives in two cities in the Eastern Anatolia in September and November 2019. The study population consisted of the midwives from the X and Y generations, working in the relevant hospitals between the aforementioned dates, and agreed to participate in the study voluntarily. The data of the study were collected by 7-8 interviewers and researchers in each province. The data were collected using the Personal Information Form and the Midwifery Belonging Scale (MBS). Before collecting the study data, an ethics committee approval was obtained and once the midwives were informed, their verbal consent was obtained. Results: Based on comparison of the midwives’ descriptive characteristics, it was determined that 42,9% of the midwives from the X generation and 81,2% of the midwives from the Y generation had a bachelor’s degree. It was found that 8.4% of the midwives from the X generation and 82.7% of the midwives from the Y generation chose their profession willingly. It was determined that the mean scores of professional developments and opportunities subscale of the midwives from the X and Y generations who were included in the study were 18.61±3.44 and 19.49±3.72, respectively and the difference between them was statistically significant (p=0.006). It was determined that the mean scores of professional task and authority limitations subscale of the midwives from the X and Y generations were 10.90±3.96 and 11.99±3.31, respectively and the difference between them was statistically significant (p=0.001). It was found that the difference between the total mean score of the MBS was not statistically significant between the groups in the X and Y generations(p>0,05).

Authors: Nawaz Abdul Rehman , Anwar Usama , Aquil Fizza
Published: May 2021

The economy of Pakistan has been badly damaged by the political instability in the country. Despite its enormous economic resources, Pakistan’s economy remained under dark shadows during most of its historical discourse. The economic indicators describe a significant relationship between politics and the economy of Pakistan. The following study, by reviewing previous studies, concludes that there is a negative relationship between political instability and economic growth in Pakistan from 2000 to 2019. Political instability flourished corruption and reduced the economic growth of the country. Moreover, a weak political system and government institutions could not resist the political tension in the country. The study finally concludes that political instability reduces economic growth in the country and economic growth reinforces political stability in the country.

Published: May 2021

History education in Ghana has been situated within the pre-colonial, colonial and postcolonial trajectories and debates. Whereas there is a conscious effort by history teacher associations, academics and other interest groups to advance and develop the teaching of the subject at different levels of the educational system in Ghana, little attention has been paid to how the textbooks have conceptualised the cultural, ethnic and indigenous histories with their attendant differences and how they have affected or complicated narratives in the postcolonial setting of Ghana. Essentially, this contribution highlights how historical themes on empire, colonisation, decolonisation and the Commonwealth, and associated events, are explored in historiography and in the curricula of Ghana. This involves an examination of the dynamic relationship between political traditions, curriculum, historiography, and scholarship at university level. Overall, the paper highlights the political contexts that have shaped the various stages and manifestations of the history curriculum as it concerns British influence, decolonisation, independence and postcolonialism in Ghana before, during and after the development of the Nkrumahist and Danquah-Busia traditions.

Authors: KARAKUŞ SELÇUK Aslı , ŞEN Özlem
Published: May 2021

Son yıllarda tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedavi yöntemlerin kullanımı jinekolojik kanserlerde artış göstermektedir. Bu tedavi yöntemlerin kullanımını kadın cinsiyetinde olma, yaş, eğitim ve gelir durumu, inançlar, kanserin evresi, uzayan terapötik dönem ve kemoterapi alma gibi faktörler etkilemektedir. Jinekolojik kanser tanısı alan kadınların bu yöntemlere başvurma nedenleri kansere, kemoterapiye ve radyoterapiye ilişkin ağrı, bulantı ve yorgunluk gibi şikâyetleri azaltma, bedensel ve ruhsal huzura ulaşma, immün sistemi destekleme, refah düzeyini yükseltme, hastalığı önleme ve stresi azaltmadır. Bu derlemenin amacı literatür doğrultusunda jinekolojik kanserlerde en sık kullanılan tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedavi yöntemlerin belirlenmesidir. Yapılan çalışmalar incelendiğinde; biyolojik temelli tedaviler; genel bitkisel yöntemler (ısırgan otu, zencefil, ginseng, yeşil çay, adaçayı, kuşburnu, nane, kekik, çörek otu, ökse otu, ebegümeci, reishi mantarı, zerdeçal, ıhlamur) diyet, vitamin/mineral ve selenyum, beden zihin tedavileri; meditasyon, yoga, müzik terapi, dans, dua/dini terapi ve egzersiz, manüplatif ve beden temelli yöntemler; masaj terapisi, akupunktur ve refleksoloji, enerji temelli yöntem; reiki ve alternatif tıbbi yöntem; homeopati jinekolojik kanserli hastaların kullandığı tamamlayıcı ve alternatif yöntemler olduğu belirlenmiştir. Jinekolojik kanserli hastalarda en sık kullanılan tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedavi yönteminin bitkisel yöntemler olduğu saptanmıştır. Kanserin tıbbi tedavisi ile birlikte bilinçsiz tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedavi yöntemlerinin kullanımı hastalarda ilaç etkileşimlerine neden olup tedaviyi ve iyileşmeyi geciktirebilmektedir. Bu nedenle, sağlık profesyonelleri kanser hastalarının tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedavi yöntemlerini kullanma durumunu sorgulaması ve danışmanlık yapabilmesi önem arz etmektedir.

This reflective paper aims to explore in what ways equity-based empowering educational policies can reduce disparities of marginalized people’ access to opportunities for quality higher education in Pakistan; and how the ‘topocracy’ in Pakistan clutches education policies for their own interest. Using the critical reflective lens, the authors engage with reflections on secondary data on education policies (1947-2009) and policy analysis papers to make meaning. Making meaning is a critical reflective engagement and an approach to data analysis that enables the researchers to draw meanings of complex socio-political and educational phenomena. It enables researchers to present the key findings on ground practices based on current higher education policies of Pakistan. The findings show that policies developed on equality basis could not help the marginalized segments in Pakistan with regard to access to quality higher education. It appears that the inequity-policies and practices created a huge gap between haves and have-nots fostering disparities, sense of isolation and deprivation among the marginalized people who have no access to quality higher education such as Gilgit-Baltistan, Chitral, Baluchistan, South Punjab, interior Sindh and other border areas of Pakistan. This study recommends policymakers to reflect on what ways bringing reforms to the existing policies to introduce opportunities for equity -friendly-polices for the marginalized areas to reduce their sense of deprivation.

Education is the process of socialization that enhances the ability of the individuals to help them survive peacefully and productively in the society. In Pakistan, both public and private sector schools are working hard in the provision of quality education. Private schools strive to perform well as compared to the public sector schools and started to claim that they have better school facilities and academic performances of their students are also better. Their claims of providing quality education has become a debatable topic for educationalists and social scientists across the country. Keeping in view the same context, the current study was conducted in Tehsil Batkhela of District Malakand in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP). The aim of this research was to compare the facilities in public and private schools with reference to the provision of quality education. Through multi-stage cluster sampling two public and two private schools were randomly selected at secondary levels. From each school, 25 students were selected in both 9th and 10th class. Three dimensional data were collected; (a) form the administration of the schools about available facilities (b) from selected samples regarding their family background and (c) surprise tests were also conducted to measure the educational performances of sampled students. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were applied. The results showed that facilities of the public schools were the same or somewhat better but the educational performances of private schools were better. Further, it was found that schools’ facilities were not having a major role in better educational performances of students rather the role of family background and engagement in tuition after school hours were found as responsible factors.

Heritability and phenotypic estimates of some quantitative traits and its influence on different nitrogen fertilizer levels give the room for recombinants which become a prerequisite for any breeding study. Genetic variation in quantitative traits for the development of a new variety of crop plant with different nitrogen fertilizer levels. Based on this background, the study was conducted in order to evaluate the quantitative traits from advanced blast-resistant rice varieties in order to establish relationship between yield and yield components using genetic variances. To achieve this objective, two field studies were carried out in Malaysia during the cropping season 2017/2018. Sixteen advanced blast-resistant rice genotypes were studied in order to find out phenotypic correlation and heritability in some quantitative characters to determine the effect of various levels of Nitrogen fertilizer. The field experiment was conducted in a split-plot design replicated three times in a plot of 35 × 28.5 m2. The planting distance was 25 × 25 cm and the plot size was 2 × 1.5 m2 unit for genotype in each replication. There was a highly significant variation among the genotypes in response to nitrogen levels, high PCV, GCV, heritability, relative distance and genetic advance which indicated that different quantitative traits especially tonnes per hectare (Tha), grain weight per plot (GWTPP) and kilogram per plot (kgplot) significantly influence the yield trait. Similarly, high heritability (>60%) was observed indicating the substantial effect of additive genes more than the environmental effect. Yield per plant showed strong to low positive correlations (𝑟 = 0.99 - 0.09) at phenotypic level for grain weight per plot (GWTPP), number of tillers per hill (NTH), number of panicle per hill (NPH) and kilogram per plot (kg/plot).
National Defence Expenditure and Its Implications on Economic Development in Nigeria
Authors: M. Raymond , S. Ibyingibo
Published: May 2021

The issue of security is presently a critical challenge for the Nigeria State: biggest democracy in Africa as reports of killings are plastered on a daily basis on both print and social media. This is unpalatable for a developing country like Nigeria that has its eyes set on improving the lot of its citizens and becoming a force to reckon with in the global economy. It is on this backdrop that this study set sail to examine the association between national defence expenditure and economic development in Nigeria. The study adopted Ex-post facto research design as the variables- Misery Index, CDEX and RDEX: cannot be manipulated as they are annual time series data sourced from the World Development Indicator and the Central Bank of Nigeria annual report from a period of 38 years covering from 1981 to 2018, which were in turn analyzed using the error correction model (ECM) method of estimation. The result of the Johansen cointegration test revealed that government capital spending on defence, recurrent spending on defence, foreign direct investment and misery index have common trends in the long run. The outcome of the normalized cointegration disclosed a negative and significant relationship between government capital spending on defence and misery index, while a positive and significant long run relationship exists between government recurrent spending on defence and misery index. The short run analysis pointed to a positive and significant relationship between previous year’s misery index and current year’s misery index. The study thus recommended that government defence spending be reassessed to make it development oriented and proper monitoring of defence spending be carried out.

Izin usaha mikro dan kecil yang selanjutnya disingkat dengan IUMK adalah tanda legalitas atau kepastian hukum kepada pelaku usaha/kegiatan tertentu dalam bentuk izin usaha mikro dan kecil, maka setiap usaha harus memiliki izin secara legal. Kenyataanya, banyak para pelaku usaha kecil yang belum mengetahui tentang Izin Usaha Mikro Kecil (IUMK) dan peruntukannya.  Tujuan pelatihan ini adalah untuk memberi pemahaman kepada pelaku UMKM tentang mudahnya proses pembuatan ijin usaha bagi UMK, karena masih banyak diantara pelaku UMK yang masih belum memiliki ijin, terlebih dalam kondisi seperti sekarang ini, dengan adanya peraturan jarak fisik karena wabah covid-19 maka sulit bagi mereka untuk mengurus ijin atau bahkan bertanya mengenai bagaimana prosedur pembuatan ijin usaha. Oleh karena pelatihan ini dilakukan melalui aplikasi zoom. Hasil dari kegiatan pelatihan adalah antusiasme peserta yang mendaftar melalui zoom sebanyak 281 peserta dengan pertanyaan seputar syarat-syarat untuk mengajukan ijin usaha secara online serta bagaimana mengembangkan usahanya melalui medi online.Kata kunci: ijin usaha online, UMK

Every year, there is an increase in the number Intravenous Drug Users (IDUs) in Indonesia, in which they have a greater risk of getting Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection. This study was aimed to determine HCV prevalence and genotypes among IDUs in Surabaya. A total 25 IDUs were tested for anti-HCV. Reverse-transcription PCR in the NS5B region and 5'UTR was carried out on serum with positive anti-HCV, continued with sequencing and HCV genotype/subtype determination. The prevalence of HCV infection in IDUs in Surabaya based on positive anti-HCV was 96%(24/25). Sequencing analysis showed that 92%(22/24) could be determined their genotypes and subtypes. 40.9% (9/22) samples had genotype 1 with subtype 1a 31.82%(7/22) and subtype 1c 9.09%(2/22). 40.9%(9/22) samples had genotype 3, with subtype 3a 18.18%(4/22) and 3k 22.73%(5/22). 13.64%(4/22) samples had genotype 4 with subtype 4a, and 4.55% (1/22) sample had genotype 6 subtype 6n. The prevalence of HCV infection was high among IDUs in Surabaya. In this study, genotypes 6 was found in which it is rarely found in Indonesia, so there is a possibility that there are different HCV genotype patterns in each region of Indonesia.

As impairment of memory and ischemic brain injury is more common in female of menopausal age, the current study aims to evaluate the protective role of fenugreek seed extract and choline-Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on cognitive behavior, oxidative stress and neurodegeneration in ovariectomized-cerebral ischemic rats. Cerebral ischemia was induced by bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (BCCAO) surgery to ovariectomized adult female wistar rats. Fenugreek, choline-DHA and combination of fenugreek with choline-DHA was supplemented for 30days after ovariectomy and continued for 14 more days after BCCAO surgery. Effect of this supplementation on learning and memory, brain oxidative stress and neurodegeneration in the CA1, CA3 hippocampal sub-regions were analyzed. Ovariectomized-cerebral ischemic rats demonstrated learning and memory impairment when subjected to passive avoidance task. Further, these rats also had increased brain oxidative stress, and neurodegeneration in CA1, CA3 sub-regions of hippocampus. Conversely, combined supplementation of fenugreek with choline-DHA to ovariectomized-cerebral ischemic rats exhibited a significant improvement in their learning and memory abilities, with reduced oxidative stress and neurodegeneration in CA1 and CA3 sub-regions of hippocampus.

Two different methods of chromatographic analysis have been used in this study for the phytochemical evaluation of main secondary metabolites in the aerial part of bee balm (Monarda fistulosa L.) as the non-officinal medicinal plant of the Lamiaceae Martinov family. The high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) fingerprinting method was developed for the qualitative analyses of phenolic and non-polar compounds in the bee balm herb after its maceration in the solvents of different polarity. Such polyphenols as rosmarinic, caffeic and chlorogenic acids were authentically identified in the methanol extract of herb using HPTLC. Aromatic monoterpenoid thymol was identified by the HPTLC method in the extracts obtained with non-polar solvents (toluene, methylene chloride, and chloroform). 38 volatile compounds were determined in the methylene chloride extract of M. fistulosa herb by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS); it was taken into account only components with the content more than 0.2 %. The GC/MS analysis showed that thymol (23.73 %), followed by carvacrol (10.09 %), p-cymene (9.74 %), and thymoquinone (8.52 %) were the major constituent of methylene chloride extract. Used chromatographic techniques may be recommended for the reliable phytochemical authentication of the M. fistulosa herb.
