Prediction of Stature from Index Finger Length in South Karnataka Population: A First Radiographic Study
Authors: Sharma Shilpi , Akanksha A. , David Maria Priscilla
Published: January 2024

Context:

The “big four” components of biological profile are age, sex, race, and stature. Stature estimation is considered as one of the most important biological profiles for identification of an individual.

Aims:

We aimed to estimate stature from index finger length (IFL) clinically and also radiographically in South Indian population.

Subjects and Methods:

A cross-sectional sample of 100 patients was randomly selected from patients who visited the Department of Oral Medicine and Radiology in our institution. Stature of the participants was measured using a height chart ruler. IFL was measured clinically using digital calipers. Handwrist radiographs of the left hand were obtained using the KODAK 8000C Panoramic and Cephalometric System. Radiographic measurements were taken from the line joining the metacarpophalangeal joint to the distal point on the distal phalange of the index finger done using Windows Trophy DICOM software.

Statistical Analysis Used:

Data were subjected to logistic regression analysis.

Results:

Significant correlation was found between IFL and stature both clinically and radiographically.

Conclusions:

The use of IFL can be recommended to predict stature. Even if the soft tissues undergo putrefaction, the radiographs can help in assessing the stature of the individual and can provide an advantage of time in comparison to estimation of stature clinically.

Published: January 2024

Ganglioneuromas are unusual, slow-growing benign tumors, which arise from the neural crest cells of the autonomic nervous system and are commonly located in the retroperitoneum or posterior mediastinum. We present an autopsy case of an 18-year-old male who presented with a history of vomiting and unresponsiveness after having dinner. The patient was brought to the emergency department of our institute where he was given cardiopulmonary resuscitation but could not be revived. On histopathological examination of the adrenal gland, an encapsulated extra-adrenal tumor comprising mature ganglion cells embedded in a Schwannian stroma was noted. On immunohistochemistry, the ganglion cells and the stromal cells showed immunoreactivity for S100P and NSE. A diagnosis of extra-adrenal ganglioneuroma was rendered. The cause of death was aspirated material in the lung. Ganglioneuromas are rare tumors that are usually asymptomatic, and most of the cases are detected incidentally on the autopsy.

Most maternal deaths are preventable; however, approximately every 2 min woman dies of pregnancy or delivery-related complications. Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is among the most common causes of maternal death worldwide and reportedly, 10% of PPHs are a result of retained placenta. Inadequate prevention and response to these potentially fatal complications by untrained and unlicensed birth attendants are also a fundamental factor contributing to the prevalence. As an example of a forensic approach, we present the case of a 25-year-old woman that underwent home delivery without licensed medical supervision. She was dead on arrival, and the cause of death was determined to be retained placenta that led to hemorrhage. The present report includes the autopsy findings, as well as relevant details from the site of delivery. This report intends to highlight the correctable, yet persistent elements of this condition by providing a clear and thorough picture of death due to retained placenta, as well as analysis of the existing concomitant risk factors.
Inclusion of ecological sustainable development themes into agricultural extension education programme: content and delivery methods
Authors: Adie Alawa David , Sunday Begianpuye Azu , Mohammed Ibrahim , Akpelishi Akem David
Published: January 2024

The continuous adoption of unsustainable ecological practices by farmers on land resources threatens sustainable development in agricultural production. With increase in population and agricultural intensification, ecological problems such as erosion, deforestation, overgrazing, low yields of agricultural produce among others may be on the increase if farmers are not very conscious of their activities on land. This study determined the extent of inclusion of ecological sustainable development themes and methods used in teaching these content areas to farmers in the agricultural extension outreach programme of Cross River State. Two research questions were answered and two hypotheses were tested. The study adopted descriptive survey research design and was carried out in Cross River State with a sample of 250 comprising 180 registered farmers and 70 extension personnel. The researchers used mixed method of data collection involving quantitative and qualitative approaches. A 38-item structured questionnaire was used in collecting the quantitative data, while focused group discussions (FGD) and content analysis were used in generating qualitative data. The instrument was face validated by three experts and Cronbach Alpha reliability index of 0.84 was estimated. Out of 250 copies of questionnaire administered, 246 copies were retrieved and analyzed using mean, standard deviation and independent t-test statistic to answer the research questions and test the null hypotheses at p>.05. The study found out that 15 ecological sustainable development themes were included as content areas into the agricultural extension outreach programme of Cross River State while only 7extension teaching methods out of 22 were used in teaching the farmers in the programme. It was recommended that Cross River Agricultural Development Programme should ensure that ESD themes not fully included into agricultural extension programme are integrated and taught to farmers while enabling conditions are made to facilitate individual contacts of extension personnel with farmers to reasonably convince them and prepare them for sustainable ecological resource use and conservation.
The potential of insects as alternative animal protein source for livestock feeding
Authors: Adetunmbi Tella
Published: January 2024

The livestock industry as an important component of general agriculture is a key contributor to economic growth and development of any nation. In addition to having the capacity for earning revenue for the governments, it provides employment, food, farm energy, manure, fuel and transport. Currently, important protein ingredients for animal feed are fish meal, processed animal proteins and soybean meal. However, in the European Union the use of processed animal proteins in animal feed is prohibited due to the TSE legislation, globally land availability for soya cultivation is limited, while marine overexploitation has reduced the abundance of small pelagic forage fish from which fish meal and fish oil is derived. The growing scarcity of resources to produce these increasingly demanded ingredients has doubled prices during the last five years, while it already represents 60-70% of production costs. So, alternative (animal) protein sources for livestock and aquaculture are urgently needed.Insects are such an alternative animal protein source, which can sustainably reared on organic side streams. Reasons are that they have a favorable feed conversion efficiency, likely because they are cold-blooded. Insects contain between 30% and 70% protein on a dry matter basis. The protein content of the insect species is within the soybean/fish meal range and fat content is higher especially compared to (defatted) soybean meal. This review, however highlighted the environmental, health, livelihood and social benefits of insects. Recent efforts in feeding livestock, challenges limiting the use of insects as feed ingredients and moreover, the strategies for commercial production of insects as feed ingredients just to mention a few of the potentials of using insects for feeding livestock.

Published: January 2024

Motivation is the driving force that generates and sustains action towards the achievement of a set goal. It is closely related and affects teachers’ efficiency and effectiveness in the classroom, which have far reaching implications for national transformation since the teacher is the live wire of education enterprise. This paper delves into the place of motivation for repositioning Universal Basic Education (UBE) for national transformation. The status of UBE teachers’ motivation was portrayed in relation to motivational factors and it is evident that UBE teachers lack proper motivation and this affects their service delivery negatively. The lack of motivation among UBE teachers is evidence in the poor and irregular payment of salaries as well as lack of incentives; work overload, poor teaching environment and facilities as well as low status of teachers in the society. The paper also elucidated the roles of motivation in teaching profession for national transformation. These roles include: Production of goal-oriented teacher; production of conscientious and pain-staking teacher; helps to make a teacher maintain a friendly classroom environment; and helps to check brain drain in the teaching profession. Suggested strategies for motivating UBE teachers for national transformation include: enhancement and prompt payment of teachers’ salaries and allowances; provision of car and housing loans; provision of free medical services for teachers and their children/wards; provision of free and compulsory in-service training, and provision of better teaching and learning environment in UBE school. Conclusion was drawn.

Published: January 2024

The study sought to ascertain the influence of certain risk factors on suicidal tendencies among youths in tertiary institutions in South South, Nigeria. Descriptive survey design was utilized. The population consisted of undergraduate students of four tertiary institutions located in Niger Delta Region of South South Nigeria. Through stratified random sampling, coupled with purposive sampling technique, a sample size of 620 was derived. Four research questions were raised and a questionnaire titled, Risk Factors and Suicidal Tendencies Questionnaire (RFSTQ) was used for the data collection. Accruing data were analyzed using frequencies and percentages. The result revealed that risk factors such as family disruptions, substance abuse, academic stress and internet exposure influence suicidal tendencies. It was therefore concluded that certain risk factors such as substance abuses, academic stress and depression are closely associated with suicidal tendencies among youths. Hence, the recommendation was that all tertiary institutions should have fully functioning counselling centres that would mount intervention programmes aimed at boosting the mental health of their student clientele; where students can be taught adaptive, coping and problem solving skills to handle the myriads of pressures and problems they face at home, school and among friends.
Does a rose by any other name smell as sweet? Assessing student evaluation of teaching ratings pre- and during the COVID-19 lockdown: an Australian study
Authors: Kifle Temesgen , Kler Parvinder
Published: January 2024

The sudden sweep of the COVID-19 pandemic that led to significant lockdowns, and only gradual re-openings of societal interactions, forced the higher education sector to make significant changes in teaching and learning practices. Australian universities were no exception to this process. The adoption of almost universal online teaching in the face of lockdowns was one of the main changes executed by these universities. During this transition, instructors and students faced a plethora of challenges, with the former needing to master the necessary technological tools in a short period of time, especially with respect to creating and teaching online courses, while the latter had to deal with the socio-economic impacts of being unable to interact with their milieu in an orthodox fashion. This study examines students’ opinions about the effectiveness of their learning experiences prior to and during the pandemic period, within an Australian context. Utilising a pooled OLS methodology, we estimate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on student evaluation of teaching for a number of courses taught at an Australian university. We find statistically higher evaluation of teachers in the area of organisation, focus and inspiration during the pandemic period (where online teaching predominated) compared to the pre-pandemic period. This bifurcation is accentuated in favour of instructors from English-speaking backgrounds (ESBs) and for those teaching postgraduate courses.

On the invalidity of resolutions of professional self-government bodies – comments on the example of the professional self-government of attorneys-at-law

This article aims to reflect on the effects of illegal resolutions of professional self-government bodies in light of the concept of conventional activities. Assuming that the mentioned resolutions are examples of such activities, the author proposes that such a contradiction should be treated not so much as a basis for the invalidity of the resolu-tion, but as a premise for repealing them or establishing their non-existence. Such a classification leads to the for-mulation of several more detailed conclusions, particularly the thesis on the permissibility of resolutions contrary to law to produce legal effects.

Penyelesaian Perselisihan Hasil Pemilihan Kepala Daerah: Analisis Kedudukan Hukum Pemantau Pemilihan Sebagai Pemohon
Authors: Pratama Muhammad Rezky
Published: January 2024

Pemilihan Kepala Daerah (Pilkada) yang diatur dalam Pasal 18 ayat (4) Undang-Undang Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945 dimungkinkan terselenggara dengan calon tunggal. Kewenangan memutus permohonan perselisihan hasil Pilkada diemban oleh Mahkamah Konstitusi (MK) yang mana salah satu syarat formil permohonan adalah mengenai kedudukan hukum (legal standing) Pemohon. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memotret keterkaitan antara penyelenggaraan Pilkada calon tunggal dengan kualitas demokrasi di Indonesia sekaligus menganalisis kekuatan legal standing Pemantau Pemilihan sebagai Pemohon perselisihan hasil Pilkada. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian yuridis normatif dengan pendekatan peraturan perundang-undangan dan pendekatan konseptual untuk meneliti bahan-bahan hukum dan selanjutnya dianalisis secara kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa meningkatnya jumlah penyelenggaraan Pilkada calon tunggal menandakan turunnya kualitas demokrasi. Kemudian berdasarkan Peraturan MK Nomor 6 Tahun 2020, Pemantau Pemilihan memiliki legal standing untuk menjadi Pemohon dalam permohonan perselisihan hasil Pilkada calon tunggal, sedangkan dalam Undang-Undang MK tidak mengatur demikian. Hal ini menyebabkan lemahnya kekuatan legal standing Pemantau Pemilihan sebagai Pemohon perselisihan hasil Pilkada calon tunggal sebab secara hierarkis kedudukan UU lebih tinggi dari Peraturan MK. Oleh karenanya perlu dilakukan revisi terhadap UU MK guna memasukkan Pemantau Pemilihan sebagai pemohon perkara perselisihan hasil Pilkada.
Razões Trigonométricas no Ensino Médio: Uma Análise das Técnicas Aplicadas por Estudantes na Resolução de Itens do SAEPE
Authors: Oliveira Cláudia Danielle da Silva , Rosa dos Santos Marilene
Published: January 2024

O presente artigo parte de um recorte da dissertação de mestrado em Educação Matemática, com foco na Didática da Matemática. Nesse trabalho buscamos analisar as técnicas mobilizadas por estudantes do 3º ano do ensino médio, ao resolverem itens da avaliação externa Sistema de Avaliação Educacional de Pernambuco (SAEPE), quanto ao saber razões trigonométricas no triângulo retângulo. Para tal, a análise foi realizada à luz da Teoria Antropológica do Didático, desenvolvida por Yves Chevallard (1999). Os dados foram produzidos por meio de um teste contendo quatro itens das avaliações do SAEPE de anos anteriores, o qual aplicamos com 54 estudantes do 3º ano do ensino médio. Os resultados, mediante a análise das técnicas mobilizadas pelos estudantes, apontam desde dificuldades no reconhecimento dos elementos geométricos de um triângulo retângulo, para a identificação correta da razão trigonométrica, até dificuldades relativas aos cálculos envolvendo equações do 1º grau e operações aritméticas básicas. Tal resultado indica que o ensino das razões trigonométricas no triângulo retângulo no 3º ano do ensino médio requer uma atenção especial, o que explica os resultados abaixo do esperado, nas avaliações do SAEPE nos últimos anos.

The data used is the result of a survey of Riau University students in the form of a questionnaire. The results of the conjoint analysis in this study show that the level of each attribute that respondents prefer is the display of full color applications and images, free shipping promotions on a certain amount of purchase, the method of paying Cash On Delivery (COD), using J&T/JNE/Sicepat/Tiki/Pos delivery services, and product reviews are available in the form of photos and videos.
AS CONTRIBUIÇÕES DA CONCEPÇÃO DE RACISMO ESTRUTURAL PARA PENSAR UM SERVIÇO SOCIAL ANTIRRACISTA
Authors: Lima Silva Joelcio Jackson
Published: January 2024

Na última década, as discussões sobre as relações étnico-raciais vêm se avolumando no interior da categoria profissional do Serviço Social brasileiro como parte de um processo mais amplo de amadurecimento teórico de intelectuais conciliado com a dimensão política das lutas do Movimento Negro. A partir de uma pesquisa bibliográfica e documental sob o paradigma do materialismo histórico, especificamente o do marxismo de Gramsci (o qual é definido como Filosofia da Práxis), delineia-se o presente artigo. Com ele, busca-se alcançar o objetivo de expor a concepção de racismo estrutural e de demonstrar quais as contribuições que esta tem para dar suporte a uma práxis coerente com a construção do que vem se afirmando de forma hegemônica como o Projeto Ético-Político do Serviço Social. Além disso, o artigo traz provocações para pensar um Serviço Social antirracista em diálogo com os Princípios Fundamentais reafirmados no aniversário de 30 anos do atual Código de Ética Profissional.
O CÓDIGO DE ÉTICA DE 1993 E O PROJETO ÉTICO-POLÍTICO DO SERVIÇO SOCIAL
Authors: Silva Martins Pinheiro Silvia
Published: January 2024

Este artigo tem como objetivo central identificar os desafios enfrentados pelo Serviço Social nos últimos 30 anos e analisar as principais estratégias e formas de resistência da categoria na conjuntura neoliberal. A partir de uma análise bibliográfica, busca-se compreender como o Código de Ética de 1993 e o Projeto Ético-político do Serviço Social vêm constituindo como importantes mecanismos na orientação da prática profissional, em especial numa conjuntura marcada pela forte supressão dos direitos sociais e precarização do trabalho. Consolidados na década de 1990, ambos denotam a maturidade intelectual da profissão, o rompimento com o conservadorismo, o compromisso com a classe trabalhadora e a intenção de construir uma nova ordem societária. Todavia, diante da crise estrutural do capitalismo e a implementação da agenda neoliberal, constata-se a ampliação dos processos de expropriações, os quais se refletem no aprofundamento da flexibilização das relações trabalhistas, do sucateamento dos serviços públicos e na erosão dos direitos sociais. Esse quadro reforça desafios antigos e impõe novos obstáculos à profissão. Contudo, as lutas e a resistência da classe trabalhadores são fundamentais contra a barbárie.

O óleo do bicho do caroço do tucumã é um produto extrativista obtido da larva do besouro SpeciomerusruficornisGermar, atividade comumente realizada por comunidades tradicionais situadas no arquipélago do Marajó. O processo de extração se constitui em etapas e ferramentas criadas e inseridas ao longo do tempo, com a finalidade de aumentar o rendimento, diminuir os riscos de acidentes, assegurar qualidade final do produto e atender à demanda.O artigo tem por objeto a descrição do sistema sociotécnico do óleo extraído na comunidade Saracá, localizada geograficamente ao norte do município de Ponta de Pedras/PA. A escolha pelo lócus se justifica pela relação existente entre os moradores e o saber tradicional, considerado fonte de renda relevante, atendimento à saúde em caráter básico e cultura repassada de geração em geração. A descrição faz uso das falas dos próprios moradores, fazendo assim a construção pelo olhar nativo, por meio de pesquisa de campo, diário de campo, entrevistas e aplicação de questionário semiestruturado com perguntas abertas e fechadas. O estudo demonstra potencial econômico e sinaliza para a importância da gestão do recurso natural tendo em vista seu papel sociocultural, ainda propõe a necessidade de estudo ambiental para determinar possíveis impacto sobre o ecossistema.

DESIGNING THE PROCESS OF ACADEMIC RECOGNITION – IMPLEMENTING “BRICOLAGE” AS A METHODOLOGICAL TOOL TO ANALYZE A DEVELOPMENT PROCESS IN THE ULYSSEUS EUROPEAN UNIVERSITY ALLIANCE
Authors: Mäkelä Marjaana
Published: January 2024

European Universities Initiative is transforming the landscape of European higher education in a fundamental way with the establishment of transnational, strategic alliances. In view of the overarching objectives of the European Higher Education Area, new alliances contribute to the consolidation of current best practices in education, research and innovation, and enable novel ways of cooperation to enhance them even more. Alongside the optimistic perspectives opening up with the initiative, alliances also face a number of administrative and pedagogical challenges. Fulfilling the expectations of the European Commission in terms of facilitating more flexible study pathways and of adopting transparent practices in academic recognition is one acute topic that needs to be addressed in every alliance: recognition for both access and for advancement needs thorough reconsideration in the new educational ecosystem. The article presents a pragmatic contribution by unfolding a recent development case from the Ulysseus European University Alliance. It describes an intensive process of designing an alliance-level framework agreement for academic recognition, with supporting documents, to enable more functional processes in alignment with the main European policy papers such as the Lisbon Recognition Convention (1997) and taking into account recent studies where hindrances and developments in academic recognition are discussed and analyzed. The case process is articulated methodologically with the framework of bricolage theory (Matthews 2019) that enables a synchronic analysis of the constituents and the outcomes of the process. Pragmatic recommendations are based on the post-hoc analysis of the case where a transdisciplinary working group achieved a significant administrative step forward in alliance cooperation.

Background: Numerous investigations have been carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of electronic cigarettes in aiding individuals to quit smoking and to ascertain the security and feasibility of utilizing them as an alternative to traditional tobacco cigarettes. Research expenditures must be allocated significantly to the product's evaluation in order to perform an exhaustive examination of its usage prevalence, which includes its use as a smoking cessation tool as well as its adoption as a regular smoking behavior. Methods: The current cross-sectional study was conducted at King Abdulaziz University's Faculty of Medicine in the first few months of 2022. There were 263 students that participated in the study in total. In the previous study, the researchers used an anonymous, standardized questionnaire, which they confirmed and put into practice. The concept was assessed and put to the test using statistical analysis using "IBM SPSS Statistics version 20.0." Results: The study included a sample of 263 students, of whom 39.1% were classified as female and 60.9% as male. 49 of the 133 pupils in total were determined to have smoked in the past, while the remaining 86 were smokers currently. Regarding the sort of smoking habit used, it was discovered that 23 people (17.3%) used tobacco cigarettes, whereas 90 people (67.7%) used e-cigarettes or vapes. Furthermore, twenty people (15%) disclosed using other tobacco products. Of those who smoke, 36.1% use electronic cigarettes, or e-cigarettes, to cut back on tobacco use. There was a statistically significant link (P<0.05) found between the individuals' marital status and academic year and their regular use of e-cigarettes or vape. Conclusion: The current study found that among a cohort of medical students who successfully quit smoking through its implementation, the use of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) or vaping is a contributing factor in their success. Moreover, it is considered a transitional strategy for individuals who want to cut back on their total tobacco consumption.

Banks are institutions that have an essential role in national economic development. Banks function as institutions that store and distribute funds to the public in the form of credit. In distributing and providing credit from banks to debtors, even though a credit analysis has been carried out, there are still risks that may be borne by the bank, such as late payments and failure to pay. Therefore, banks need Credit Collateral as collateral if this risk occurs. Credit collateral is an asset from a debtor guaranteed to the bank by installing a mortgage right so that the bank has the rights to the debtor's guaranteed assets. For debtors who have tax debts, the State will take their assets to pay their tax debts, including assets handed over to the bank. The problem occurs in this case where the bank's rights as the holder of mortgage rights are faced with the State's rights to fulfill tax debts. Tax bills will be considered the highest priority in the proceeds from the sale of assets. Even though the bank has mortgage rights, tax claims are usually still prioritized over the bank's rights. So, in particular financial or legal matters, the State may have a particular claim or priority over certain payments or assets, and the State may defeat the mortgage holder.

O exercício da docência é permeado por condições de trabalho desfavoráveis, como baixos salários, recursos escassos, materiais pedagógicos inadequados, salas de aula superlotadas, relações tensas com os alunos, carga horária excessiva, participação inexpressiva no planejamento da instituição e na política institucional e um ambiente escolar inseguro. O presente estudo tem como objetivo geral identificar na literatura estudos que tratem da saúde mental do professor. Os objetivos específicos são: apontar as doenças mentais que mais atingem o professorado na educação básica; identificar fatores associados a síndrome de Burnout; identificar nas produções se há alguma indicação de enfrentamento ao problema do ponto de vista organizacional e/ou político. O método de pesquisa consiste em uma pesquisa bibliográfica, com buscas realizadas no site Scielo, utilizando os seguintes termos: saúde mental, docentes, professores, ensino fundamental, ensino médio, burnout. Os artigos selecionados foram publicados entre 2005 e 2022, dos 118 artigos encontrados, 19 foram analisados. O principal transtorno psíquico investigado foi a síndrome de burnout, sendo os sintomas prevalentes estresse e ansiedade. Até aqui, pode-se dizer que a saúde mental é afetada positiva ou negativamente devido às características do ambiente e que diversos fatores relacionados à rotina do professor podem contribuir para o desencadeamento de sofrimento mental. Portanto, espera-se que esses resultados orientem novas pesquisas e facilitem o planejamento de intervenções eficazes para a saúde mental dos professores.
