Authors: Sambo Abubakar , Mustafa Abdulsalam , Bello Nasiru
Published: January 2024

Telecommunications plays a crucial role in facilitating the transmission of voice, data, and multimedia over extended distances. This paper explores the significance of telecommunications, particularly in Nigeria, the largest ICT market in Africa, where telecom and internet usage hold substantial importance. However, the sector's heavy reliance on fossil fuels has resulted in environmental challenges. This research underscores the imperative to transition to clean energy sources, aligning with the commitment of the Nigerian Communications Commission. The paper presents a case study of a solar hybrid system designed to enhance Base Transceiver Station (BTS) coverage, emphasizing notable challenges such as elevated costs and the industry's familiarity with fossil fuels. The optimal power configuration for a BTS, as identified in the study, features a 16kW PV (photovoltaic) array, 14kW Diesel Generator (DG), 32kWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), and Utility, achieving the lowest Levelised Cost of Energy (LCOE) at $0.255/kWh. The production summary for the Solar PV array is 24,767 kWh/year (76%), the Diesel Generator is 1,250 kWh/year (4%), and the Utility is 6,503 kWh/year (20%). Consequently, the total estimated production is 32,520 kWh/year, constituting 100% of the energy requirement for the BTS. The study proposes solutions to challenges, including local clean energy component production, capacity building, and regulatory alignment. In conclusion, the adoption of clean energy is deemed essential for sustainability, with recommendations for policy adoption and efficient equipment utilisation.

Authors: Moaref Mahgol , Izadpanah Mandana , Kouti Leila
Published: January 2024

Background: The emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria poses a significant global concern. The improper use of antibiotics, identified as a leading contributor to this problem, is a widespread issue in medical centers worldwide. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the utilization pattern of levofloxacin, a commonly prescribed antibiotic. Methods: We conducted a retrospective descriptive study in Ahvaz, Iran, focusing on patients who had received levofloxacin over a 6-month period. Data collection involved a questionnaire comprising patient demographic details, diagnosis information, details concerning levofloxacin administration, and outcomes, all extracted from the patients' medical records. During the assessment, we considered factors such as the correct dosage, frequency of administration, potential drug interactions, and adverse effects. Data analysis was performed using SPSS v. 20. Results: A total of 35 patients, with a mean age of 55.17 ± 20.36 years, received levofloxacin during the study period, and 48.6% of them were women. On average, each patient received 3.20 ± 2.85 grams of levofloxacin, with a minimum dose of 0.500 grams and a maximum of 11.50 grams. The average treatment duration was 3.813 ± 4.26 days. In only 8.6% of cases, the prescribed dosage was deemed inappropriate, while in 40% of cases, the duration of antibiotic use was found to be inadequate. Conclusions: The utilization of levofloxacin was deemed irrational in 40% of cases. Although the prescribed dosage for the respective diagnoses was generally accurate, the treatment duration was often incorrect, potentially contributing to antibiotic resistance.

Context: During the outbreak of COVID-19, mental health problems were increasingly observed in children and adolescents, leading to negative physical and psychological consequences. This pandemic provided a unique opportunity for conducting survey studies on this topic. As there is no comprehensive research in this area, our aim was to provide a concise overview of previous studies on the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental well-being of young people. Methods: We performed an electronic search in multiple databases for this systematic review. The quality of the studies was assessed on the basis of a 14-item quality assessment tool proposed by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institutes (NHLBI) for observational cohort and cross-sectional studies. The time span encompassed December 2019 to December 2021, and the databases included PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. The search was based on the keywords: COVID-19, depression, anxiety, children, and adolescents. Based on our inclusion criteria, out of the 4516 articles reviewed, only eight papers were included in the final review, and their results were summarized and reported. Results: The negative mental health consequences of children during the coronavirus outbreak included increased anxiety and depression, increased behavioral and emotional problems, experiencing misbehaviors and emotional bullying, and increased anxiety and stress following harm, especially in girls. Conclusions: Considering the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on children's mental health, it seems necessary to conduct interventional studies to improve and reduce stress and anxiety in children and adolescents during future disease outbreaks.
Narration, nation and Mhudi, in the context of a feminine nationalist metaphor and a dream deferred
Authors: Mafu Lucas
Published: January 2024

Sol Plaatje’s Pan-Africanism and a dream of a sub-continent at peace with itself constructed on the principles of ethnic and racial equality comes to a critical paradox with the realisation that it is not possible to achieve it in the face of the political interests of different competing national groups. What ultimately stands out in this novel is the feminine metaphor of African nationalism, which is embedded in Mhudi, the nationalist and cultural icon. This paper traces the narrative voices in the novel Mhudi, in the context of its multi-layered narrations of national histories by different ethnic groups claiming South Africa as their home, and the literary interpretations that arise. Using postclassical narrative theory and historical narratology, this paper considers the possibility of several renderings of Mhudi’s character, South Africa’s history and the contradictory claims to ownership of this land which Plaatje, the nationalist, fictionally presents. In the South Africa of the 1930s, Plaatje’s aspirations of a multicultural, multi-ethnic, and united country which are embodied in Mhudi were deferred. The paper concludes that those aspirations remain deferred even after the end of both colonialism and apartheid.

A self-developed questionnaire instrument was the main data collection tool and quantitative analysis was used with the aid of IBM SPSS (v.23). The study found that most of the respondents were of the view that diabetes mellitus was hereditary. It was recorded that all respondents considered hospital-based treatment as effective in treating the condition.  About 90 (72.0%) were of the view that of a diabetic patient skipped a dose, he/she was to ignore that dose and wait till the time for the next dose. Moreover, 116 (92.0%) respondents shared with researcher that diabetics were supposed to avoid all fatty foods. All respondents visited the hospital facility on a monthly basis to receive medical-care.  Female turn to have adhered more to their medication regimen than the males did, but it was not statistically significant (t=.047, p= .963). Age has negative relationship (r = -.123, p= 533) with their adherence to medication. It was realized that those who had secondary education adhered mostly to diabetic medications followed by tertiary education and primary education attainers respectively.  There was a positive relationship (r = .050, p=0.732) between the marital status, occupational status (r = .272, p = .056) of respondents and their adherence status to taking medications.  Respondents (40%) disagreed that prescribed medications were fully covered under the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS).  All of the respondents agreed that finance was a challenge to seeking treatment and medical care for the management of DM. About 40 percent of the respondents feared about side effect of drugs. It was recommended that government should extend the NHIS to cater for DM medications.

Penicillin Binding Protein Mutation and Beyond: A Comprehensive Approach to Addressing Streptococcus pneumoniae Resistance
Authors: Sodik Jajang , Mulyani Yani
Published: January 2024

Antibiotic resistance is a critical issue that threatens global health. Streptococcus pneumoniae, a common respiratory pathogen, has developed resistance to β-lactam antibiotics, which is of great concern. The primary mechanism of β-lactam resistance in S. pneumoniae is the acquisition of PBP genes from related species through recombination, resulting in changes in penicillin-binding proteins that affect cell wall synthesis. This mini-review summarized the understanding of β-lactam resistance in S. pneumoniae, focusing on the mechanisms and factors influencing resistance development. We conducted a comprehensive literature search using PubMed and Google Scholar, with the keywords ‘Resistant Streptococcus pneumonia’, ‘Mechanism of Streptococcus pneumoniae resistant’, and ‘Penicillin Resistant on Binding Protein of Streptococcus pneumonia’. Our literature review revealed that the prevalence of β-lactam resistance in S. pneumoniae has increased, leading to treatment failures and mortality rates. In addition to acquiring PBP genes, mutations in other PBP and non-PBP genes can contribute to resistance. Furthermore, S. pneumoniae has intrinsic resistance to various antibiotics, including first-generation polypeptides, aminoglycosides, and quinolones. Our review highlights the importance of understanding the complex mechanisms of β-lactam resistance and the need for continued efforts to monitor and control antibiotic resistance in S. pneumoniae. Further research is needed to explore novel strategies for combating antibiotic resistance in this pathogen.

Published: January 2024

There are several types of built-up wetland systems, including subsurface runoff wetlands, surface runoff wetlands, and hybrid runoff wetlands. Among the three types, in this study, subsurface flow constructed wetlands were selected because they have the advantage of having smaller land requirements compared to other types of artificial land. In addition, this type of wetland is not mosquito-friendly because there is no standing water on its surface. This study used a batch and intermittent exposure system. The purpose of using this exposure system is to find out a good exposure system in removing Pb metal. Based on the results of the research and discussion, it can be concluded that the effectiveness of the batch exposure system is higher than the intermittent system, this is determined by the effectiveness of the highest Pb absorption in the batch system of 98.39% and the highest intermittent system of 91.06%.
