Authors: Jacob Augustine Okon , Umoh Okon Joseph , Akpan Ayara Kingdom
Published: January 2023

Despite the various monetary regimes that have been adopted by the Central Bank of Nigeria over the years, inflation remains a major threat to Nigeria’s economic growth. This study seeks to examine the relationship between monetary policy and economic growth in Nigeria. Starting from the nature and direction of causation, the Granger pair-wise causality model was used, while a multiple regression model was formulated based on the theoretical background of the study. The error correction mechanism (ECM) method was used to estimate the equation, to evaluate the inherent connectivity between monetary policy and economic growth and also the impact of money supply, interest rate, and exchange rate on the rate of economic growth in Nigeria. The result showed that there is a unidirectional causal relationship between money supply and economic growth in Nigeria. Secondly, interest rates and exchange rates have a negative effect on economic growth, while money supply has a positive effect on economic growth. As a result, the macroeconomic variables that policymakers should regulate in order to reduce inflation and ensure economic growth in Nigeria are the money supply, exchange rate, and interest rate.

Published: January 2023

There are gaps and obstacles in legal practice and administration, including cyber security vulnerabilities, intellectual property issues, negative effects on labour and privacy and data protection concerns. It is vital to understand the function of legislation in governing science and technology, as well as the ethical implications of scientific study and modern technologies. With the advancement of the internet, technology, genomics, telecommunications and other fields of science and technology, legal scholars and law schools have placed a larger emphasis on the intersection of law and science and technology. This article discusses the relationship between law and artificial intelligence and jurisprudence. It explains how law and AI (Artificial Intelligence) are related to jurisprudence in the context of sociology, moral judgments made by AI and the problems that AI faces while making moral judgments. Later in the chapter, a future perspective on AI is discussed. The article focuses on the necessity of AI in law because, while AI offers numerous benefits, like enhanced creativity, services, safety, and lifestyle, it also generates numerous anxiety and concerns about undesirable consequences on human autonomy, privacy and fundamental rights and freedoms.

Published: January 2023

The construction industry is a unique industry given the nature of its products and the huge financial requirements necessary for the actualization of these products. The role of the industry as an economic regulator cannot be overemphasized as evident in the amount of spending observed in the industry during periods of economic boom or recession; moreover, the product of the construction industry is consumed by virtually every other industry in the economy. It is common knowledge that construction products are complex in nature and require substantial amount of finance to actualize. Quantity surveyors are construction industry professionals saddled with responsibility of ensuring financial probity in the conceptualization and execution of both new works and refurbishment works in the construction industry; they are critical stakeholders in the construction industry procurement system as they are quite visible in the processes leading to the selection of a suitable contractor. To this end, this paper seeks to portray the critical role of professional ethics in the procurement procedure for construction contracts in the Nigerian construction industry. Recommendations were made on what must be done to eliminate unethical practices in the procurement process including the need for continuous training and re-training of professionals in the construction industry by respective professional bodies to ensure that relevant ethical standards are imbibed this the authors believe will give impetus to sustainable development.

Published: January 2023

All over the world, there is a general consensus that the construction industry is an important driver of economic growth and prosperity in developing countries such as Nigeria. The nature of activities in the industry is such that human and material resources are mobilized and effectively deployed in both the construction, rehabilitation and maintenance of housing and infrastructure projects for the purpose of reducing unemployment locally and enhancing the general economic wellbeing of a nation through the provision of the requisite infrastructural and commercial structure which are indispensable requirements for the advancement of all other sectors of any economy. However, due to its uniqueness and coupled with the huge financial resources required to actualize a construction product, its procurement has been known to be susceptible to wastage, fraud and other forms of corrupt practices. It was these susceptibilities that led to the introduction of the Nigerian Public Procurement Act in 2007. Consequently, this paper looks at the likely effect of an effective procurement procedure for construction projects on national development. Data for this paper were sourced from mainly from secondary data sources which include journal articles, textbooks, the internet and other types of literature. The paper concluded that a anybody found to have contravened the provisions of the Public Procurement Act no matter how highly placed should be prosecuted publicly and appropriate sanctions meted out to deter any other would be offender also, a sound public procurement system for public projects in the construction industry and a motivated workforce will significantly impact productivity and national development, enhance effectiveness in government spending, ensure infrastructural development and improve the welfare of the people while also reducing corruption, wastages and sharp practices to the barest minimum.

The heavy metals mean serious hazard in environmental pollution. Some of them are vital for many organisms in a low concentration, however the others ought to be poisonous at low concentrations, too. This paper gives an example for the correlation of the attention in human hair and in the environment of different heavy metals. Human hair (n=50) Volunteers (35 males and 15 females) of different age groups between 1 to 57 years samples were collected in Al – Ajailat, Libya. Hair samples were analyzed for heavy metals (Cd, Pb and Zn) by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometric technique (FAAS). The results showed that the samples concentrations ranged between 0.0001 and 0.3840 mg.kg−1 for cadmium, followed by zinc between 68.99 mg kg−1 and 225mg. kg−1while lead was between 0.632 mg kg−1 and 7.708mg. Kg−1. The results indicated that metal concentrations in male samples varied based on age, such that age group 33-43 years had the highest zinc concentration (206.2±11.6 mg/kg), and age group 1-10 years had the highest Cd (0.384±0.01 mg/kg) and Pb (1.929±0.05 mg/kg) concentrations. while, the cadmium and lead contents in children’s hair samples of both sexes was higher than compared to the values available in some countries. The difference between male and female concentration could be due to individual differences in exposure to heavy metal load as a result of habitual or environmental factors.
THE AVAILABILITY STATUS OF BORON IN THE CULTIVATED SOIL OF NEPAL
Authors: Budha Janaki , Bhatta Sandesh
Published: January 2023

Boron is available in nature in rocks and deposits and the availability is influenced by soil organic matter, soil pH, soil texture, and temperature and is taken up by plants in non-ionic form H3BO3 (boric acid) but this concentration account for only about 10% of total soil boron leading to boron deficiency. Also, boron toxicity may occur in low rainfall, extremely alkaline, and saline soils harming plants’ growth and development. Boron shortage and toxicity in plants have a fairly narrow range, and both are detrimental. Hence, it is needed to critically balance boron homeostasis in cropping soil. The concentration of boron in cultivated soil in different agroecological regions was found to be low to very low (1mg/kg of soil) in this review study, which was undertaken to familiarize the status of boron in Nepalese cultivated land. In separate micronutrient investigations, a few additional micronutrients were shown to be medium albeit, boron was found to be low even in the valley (>0.01ppm) including all three ecological regions. This shows boron deficiency is a universal problem in Nepal affecting 80-90% of agricultural soil. And this problem can be corrected by both foliar applications and by soil application of boron sources such as borate as per the recommended dose.
Urban Plazas: The Politics of Space in Urban Constraints
Authors: Lai Stefenie
Published: January 2023

The most crucial notion in built environment studies, space, is forced to undergo a reinterpretation due to the influence of numerous social phenomena and cultural movements, such as postmodernism, the information age, and globalization. The traditional concept of time subverts time division and space restriction, along with the changes brought on by contemporary urbanization and postmodernist cultural norms. As a result, the urban plaza area, which is a unique cultural space, begins to take shape. It brings together previously different places, such as “public and private,” “political and daily,” “working and leisure,” as well as “physical and virtual.” The urban plaza is a useful research subject since it is a public area where the majority of cultural traits associated with urbanization are found. The spatial politics of the urban plaza experience a historic shift from macro politics to micro politics under the influence of postmodernism. Premised on this notion, the purpose of this study is to investigate the specific space of today’s cities, which is the urban plaza, as well as the politics of space and the in-depth interpretation of space culture. This study uses techniques from many other fields that are related to spatial ideas, including philosophy, political science, cultural studies, and geography. This study expands the cultural space of post-modernist interpretation of cultural depth of character based on the theoretical paradigm in multidisciplinary cross-application in order to enhance individuals’ awareness of urban plaza cultural forms and further their understanding of its political and cultural space power traits as well as underlying meaning. This paper examines the role and culture of urban plaza from the perspectives of numerous well-known spatial culture theories in the context of the analysis. In addition to identifying the nature of the cultural politics, this paper addresses the significance of spatial politics of urban plazas.

Published: January 2023

Integration processes ensure the progressive growth of the national economy, especially reckoning the factors of the crisis and the imbalance of the socio-economic environment in different forms of manifestation, including those caused by sanctions restrictions. The actualization of the problem of assessing digital integration at the level of the sectoral economy is due to the lack of comprehensive analytical methods that allow to identify the prerequisites and prospects for the digital integration of Russian industrial enterprises, considering various factors of the internal and external environment. The study’s aim is to generalize related approaches and tools for analyzing the digital transformation of industrial enterprises and to develop a methodological approach to assessing the readiness of Russian industrial enterprises for digital integration. The study is based on an interdisciplinary approach, since digital integration relations cover a wide range of tasks, the solution of which involves the use of systemic, factorial, statistical, evidence-based, comparative and expert methods, as well as grouping and clustering. These methods make it possible to identify speciﬁc features of the assessment of digital integration in the industry. The information base for the assessment is the ofﬁcially submitted data from the Russian system of statistical observation, as well as samples of approved target indicators of Russian strategic planning documents in digitalization and ensuring the sustainability of industrial enterprises. Based on the generalization of foreign and domestic experience, the authors have identiﬁed the parameters that were a subject to evaluation in terms of digital integration of industry complexes, groups of enterprises and legal entities. Systematization of scientiﬁc approaches to the research of digital aspects of industrial facilities proposed by domestic and foreign scientists. This allowed the authors to determine the basic conditions and factors that were the main ones for assessing the readiness of Russian industrial enterprises to the digital integration. In addition, the authors proposed evaluation indicators with the possibility of visualizing the results obtained for making further management decisions. The assessment results can be incorporated into making strategic decisions aimed at involving IT business entities, development institutions and industrial enterprises in digital integration. Considering the results obtained from the position of the authors, it makes sense to strengthen the functional and regulatory impact on large regional manufacturing enterprises with a high potential for digital integration.

This research aimed to prove the role of production, attention, retention, motivation, and innovation in students’ scientific writing skills at the Islamic Study College (PTAI) in Cirebon. This experimental research used a quasi-experimental design and a nonequivalent control group design. The experiment was conducted in two groups, experiment and control groups. The research samples included Lecturers from a public Islamic University. The experiment group samples were 38 students of the Philosophy of Religion Department. The control group consisted of 33 Islamic Guidance and Counseling Department students. The collection technique used was tested, comprised of a pretest and posttest. The two groups were given the same tests (pretest and posttest), and the results were compared. The instrument used in this research was a test. Validity determination for the scientific writing ability variable was not measured statistically but through construct validity. The reliability test resulted in a reliability coefficient from an assessor of 0.82, while all assessors' average rating reliability coefficient was 0.93. The normality test results on scientific writing ability data with the control class show Lo = 0.106 < Lt = 0.154. Meanwhile, the normality test on the experiment class’s scientific writing ability data results in a maximum Lo of 0.106 and Lt = 0.144. The balance test results show the score of tcount = 1.51 < ttable = 1.67. The data analysis with t independent test resulted in the score of tcount > ttable (10.45 > 1.65). This shows that the competence of production, attention, retention, motivation, and innovation can improve students’ scientific writing skills.

В работе проведено исследование влияния магнитного поля на структурную организацию и сенсорные свойства тонких слоев фталоцианина титанила (TiOPc) нанесенных методом термического испарения в вакууме. Показано, что наличие магнитного поля (направлено перпендикулярно к поверхности подложки) не влияет на фазовый состав слоев - в обоих случаях они представлены двумя кристаллическими модификациями - II-триклинной и I-моноклинной. Кристаллиты обеих фаз преимущественно ориентированы, углы между плоскостями молекул и подложкой составляют 62.53 и 5.30° соответственно. Исследование в схеме 2D GIXD, показало, что наличие магнитного поля, существенно улучшило кристалличность полученных тонких слоев, при этом проводимость увеличилась в ~10 раз, но величина сенсорного отклика на аммиак не изменилась. Облучение слоя, полученного в магнитном поле, быстрыми нейтронами (флюенс 3´1014 см-2) привело к уменьшению проводимости на два порядка, в параллельном эксперименте без магнитного поля, эффект не проявился.
Sa ili bez istog padeža

U radu se istražuju koordinirane konstrukcije s katalipsom prijedložne dopune (KPD-om) u hrvatskome, kao na ili oko kapka. Osnovno je istraživačko pitanje što uvjetuje mogućnost KPD-a. Ukrštavanje teorije katalipse na desnoj periferiji prvoga koordinanda, u generativističkoj tradiciji poznate kao podizanje desnog čvora, te normativne i deskriptivne literature o ovom fenomenu u hrvatskom iznjedrilo je usmjerenija istraživačka pitanja – jesu li uvjet za KPD u hrvatskome: 1) podudaranje padežnih oblika ispuštenog i neispuštenog NP-a, 2) višesložnost ili leksička naglašivost prijedlogā, 3) značenjska suprotnost prijedlogā. Ova su pitanja adresirana analizom ručno označenog uzorka 1026 primjera konstrukcija s KPD-om iz Hrvatskoga nacionalnog korpusa i 1001 primjera iz Hrvatskoga mrežnog korpusa. Rezultati istraživanja ukazuju na to da podudaranje padežnih oblika nije uvjetujući faktor za KPD u suvremenoj hrvatskoj jezičnoj praksi, suprotno normativnim preporukama, a da je glavni uvjetujući faktor za KPD značenjska kontrastnost prijedlogā. Pokazalo se da broj slogova ili navodna leksička naglašivost prijedlogā nisu isključivi kriterij za mogućnost upotrebe u konstrukciji s KPD-om, no čini se da ta obilježja jesu u korelaciji s učestalošću takve upotrebe pojedinih prijedloga. Međutim, ovaj aspekt zahtijeva daljnje istraživanje prije pouzdanih zaključaka.

Introduction. Prostate cancer (PСa) is one of the most common malignant diseases in men in the world. Radical prostatectomy remains the «gold standard» for treating this pathology. Good long-term oncological results Active follow-up of low-risk patients, as well as modification of the Gleason scale, suggested the possibility of using AS in carefully selected patients with intermediate-risk PCa. The introduction of molecular genetic markers into practice will allow a personalized choice of a treatment method. Purpose. Conduct a systematic review of the literature on the analysis of active surveillance in patients with PCa of an intermediate risk group, existing molecular genetic markers for additional risk stratification. Materials and methods. A systematic review of publications on active surveillance in prostate cancer, published in the PubMed, Cochrane, e-Library databases, was performed. Databases were searched using the following keywords: active surveillance, prostate cancer, intermediate risk, molecular genetic markers. Results. This review selected 39 articles, of which 24 are devoted to Active Surveillance, 15 molecular genetic markers of PCа aggressiveness. In the analysis of active surveillance, parameters such as the percentage of patients without active (radical) treatment, overall survival, tumor-specific survival, and metastasis-free survival were evaluated. Conclusions. Currently, AS in prostate cancer can be used for carefully selected group of patients at an intermediate risk group, the introduction of modern molecular genetic markers will allow more accurate determination of the amount of treatment without worsening long-term oncological results.

Published: January 2023

A presente monografia tem como objetivo estudar como o profissional de Relações Públicas está sendo representado no audiovisual, através da análise de filmes e séries, com foco específico na série inglesa Flack (LANSLEY, 2019). A escolha por este objeto em específico se deu devido ao grande potencial de estudo, uma vez que apresenta quatro personagens RP ditas como tal. Buscou-se compreender como foi realizada a construção destas personagens, suas características físicas e psicológicas, suas ações e atividades profissionais. Foram selecionadas também seis cenas do seriado para estudo aprofundado sobre estas representações. Para o desenvolvimento destas análises foi necessário anteriormente buscar por parâmetros que definissem o profissional de Relações Públicas e suas atividades, a partir da obra de Cesca (2012), o contexto de origem da profissão e as legislações e regulamentações vigentes para a área, ancoradas na Lei No5.377 (BRASIL, 1967), e na Aliança Global de Relações Públicas e Gestão de Comunicação. E partindo da hipótese de que as representações existentes de profissionais de RP são carregadas de estereótipos, foi preciso também definir os conceitos de estereótipo e de representação, de acordo com Moscovici (2007) e Baptista (2004). Antes de adentrar na análise da série Flack, foi elaborado também um estudo mais amplo sobre filmes e séries onde é possível perceber a presença de RPs ditos ou não como tal. Para a análise dos objetos, foram utilizados conceitos e categorias de Miller (1999) sobre arquétipos, Saltzman (2011) sobre imagem, e Campos (2007) e Comparato (1995) para o estudo sobre a construção das personagens e suas características.

ESTRUTURAS EM MADEIRA E CONTRAVENTAMENTOS: EXPERIMENTAÇÕES ESTRUTURAL E CONSTRUTIVA
Authors: Obata Sasquia Hizuru , Martins Alexandre Augusto , Sampaio Celso Aparecido
Published: January 2023

A concepção arquitetônica de um edifício – independente da função pretendida, dos materiais estruturais escolhidos e das soluções construtivas idealizadas – solicita, dos arquitetos, o lançamento de um arranjo de elementos estruturais com atribuições bem específicas agrupados em subsistemas que, reunidos, formarão o “sistema estrutural” da edificação; a manutenção da forma sob as diversas ações externas exige um esquema eficiente de elementos resistentes interconectados que a suporte. 
Transmitir os carregamentos gravitacionais – pesos – dos planos horizontais à fundação gerando espaços livres para o homem é uma destas funções requeridas das estruturas, possivelmente a mais discutida e exercitada nas escolas de Arquitetura; os estudantes aprendem, desde os primeiros projetos: modulação, continuidade e desenho dos pilares, além de seleção e representação gráfica em escala adequada de soluções para vencer os vãos e balanços dos pavimentos e coberturas.
Porém, além das forças gravitacionais, todas as edificações estão sujeitas a forças laterais, como o vento, que tentam desestabilizá-las. Os subsistemas de contraventamento, portanto, são indispensáveis às construções, ofertando a rigidez necessária para combater os deslocamentos horizontais excessivos; exigem ainda maior atenção ao seu desenho, na Arquitetura, nas concepções que envolvam peças pré-fabricadas, que não têm a facilidade de execução de conexões monolíticas como as moldadas “in loco”; nas coberturas leves; e nos edifícios altos. 
A professora Sasquia Obata e os professores Alexandre A. Martins e Celso Sampaio reúnem e mostram, de forma generosa, neste e-book, interessantes experimentações didático-pedagógicas acerca do tema “estabilidade lateral em estruturas de madeira” desenvolvidas pelos estudantes do curso de Arquitetura da Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie; associam a elas conceituações teóricas certeiras. Com isso trazem um material que orienta e estimula o leitor – estudante, professor ou profissional – à experimentação como instrumento relevante para a plena compreensão físico-mecânica dos abstratos desenhos de estruturas que surgem nas pranchetas de projeto.

Avaliação de Registro de Imagem Realizado com e sem Pontos de Referência Extraídos através da Técnica SIFT
Authors: Mazer Amanda Cristina , Yoriyaz Hélio
Published: January 2023

Em Radioterapia Guiada por Imagem (IGRT), é comum a aquisição de diversas imagens de um paciente e, por consequência, a realização de registro de imagem para a comparação entre elas. Devido a isso, é fundamental que sejam realizados tanto um bom registro quanto um bom controle da qualidade (CQ) do registro. O objetivo deste trabalho é avaliar um registro de imagem quando realizado com e sem pontos de referência. Para isso, imagens de Tomografia Computadorizada (TC) de um paciente da radioterapia foram utilizadas para realizar registros rígido e elástico, com e sem pontos de referência. A técnica Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) foi utilizada para desenvolver um algoritmo para a extração semiautomática de pontos-chave estáveis das imagens, tanto para os registros quanto para a avaliação de tais registros. Através dos valores de erro médio, erro máximo e Informação Mútua (IM) encontrados, foi possível verificar um melhor alinhamento das imagens quando realizado o registro partindo inicialmente dos pontos de referência extraídos, em comparação com o alinhamento realizado sem esses pontos de referência. A SIFT mostrou ser uma ótima ferramenta para realizar ambas as tarefas e, quando possível, o profissional da clínica deve realizar um bom CQ quantitativo de registro, considerando pontos de referência distribuídos pelas imagens.

Uma das maneiras de promover a otimização em proteção radiológica é implementando o conceito de Nível de Referência de Dose (DRL). Diversas são as formas de estimar a dose de radiação, dentre elas a estimativa do produto área-dose (DAP). Neste estudo, foi estimada a dose efetiva em exames radiológicos com o objetivo de determinar o DRL local. Para isso, os dados de DAP foram coletados e filtrados para o modelo de paciente padrão. Todos os procedimentos avaliados foram realizados em equipamentos de radiologia convencional com medidor de DAP embutido e devidamente calibrado, dentre eles: tórax anteroposterior (AP), tórax lateral (LAT) e tórax póstero-anterior (PA), abdômen AP, pelve AP e coluna lombar AP e LAT. O software PCXMC 2.0 foi empregado na simulação computacional de exames radiográficos para simular a dose efetiva no paciente para as incidências utilizadas. No total, após verificação dos dados, foram selecionados 167 valores de DAP e o número de incidências realizadas variou de 7 a 51 para diferentes projeções. A maior quantidade de incidências foi coletada para tórax LAT e a menor quantidade para coluna lombar LAT. Foram analisados 1º quartil, mediana e 3º quartil, bem como DAP mínimo e máximo e o valor interquartil (IQV) para cada conjunto de dados. As simulações computacionais resultaram em valores de dose efetiva compatíveis com a literatura. Por se tratar de um trabalho inicial, alguns pontos devem ser levados em consideração, como: o serviço faz parte de um hospital escola com profissionais em formação; existem cartas de técnicas disponíveis, porém os equipamentos digitais foram recém instalados; o estudo deve ser aprofundado, com número maior de incidências, para que os protocolos sejam bem estabelecidos no serviço. Este estudo serve de referência para outros serviços que desejam realizar o levantamento do nível de referência de diagnóstico para protocolos de radiologia convencional.
Formulation development, optimization, and characterization of anti-fungal topical biopolymeric film using a niosomal approach
Authors: Sukanya Patil  , Jaya Agnihotri
Published: January 2023

Background: Griseofulvin is an antifungal drug that is currently available in the market only in oral dosage forms. So, the development of topical treatment could be advantageous for the treatment of superficial fungal infections. Though for superficial fungal treatment, the skin acts as a major target as well as a principal barrier for drug delivery. To overcome this the colloidal carrier system niosome was used. Niosomes being in the nanometer size range would allow the delivery of the drug at the desired site. Niosomes being non-ionic surfactant-based vehicles would facilitate the passage of the drugs through as skin is composed of both lipid and aqua, which would create problems for any other delivery system. Methodology: Griseofulvin belonging to the BCS Class II was formulated in the form of niosomes to enhance the drug’s solubility. In this study, optimization of niosomal formulation was done using OVAT (one variable at a time) method. Here, the CMAs (critical material attributes) such as surfactant type, conc. of charge inducer and the ratio of surfactant: cholesterol and CPPs (critical processing parameters) such as rotational speed of evaporator flask, external phase temperature, hydration time, and external phase volume (both aqueous and organic), which are independent variables influencing factors at different levels. These are said to have a potential risk on the CQAs (critical quality attributes), which are dependent variables, such as vesicle size, vesicle shape, vesicle lamellarity, niosome aggregation, and drug entrapment efficiency, for the final selection of improved optimum batch. The films were prepared from the incorporation of griseofulvin-loaded optimized niosomes in chitosan film for topical drug delivery in superficial fungal infections. Characterization: The films properties were characterized by physical appearance, film thickness, weight variation, folding endurance, tensile strength, moisture, uptake, moisture content, drug content uniformity, In-vitro drug diffusion studies, ex-vivo studies, and antifungal efficacy against Candida albicans sp. Result and Discussion: Thus, chitosan film formulation integrating griseofulvin-loaded niosomes for topical delivery enhanced the solubility of the drug and avoided the side effects associated with the orally-administered marketed formulation. Conclusion: Biopolymer chitosan exhibited antifungal activity implying enhanced drug efficacy. Therefore, two concepts of using optimized vesicular carrier systems and biopolymeric films have been combined and this topical novel composite film having the potential for griseofulvin delivery to superficial fungal infections has been formulated.
