Framing the Actors though Thematic Structures: The Case of the Malaysian Orang Asli
Authors: Jamal Marlina , Ganapathy Malini
Published: March 2021

The current study deals with the analysis of thematic structures in news articles published regarding the Orang Asli community in The Star. The study aims to investigate the major themes associated with the community when they are presented in media. An analysis was conducted on 158 news articles through the utilisation of van Dijk’s “Theory of Semantic Macrostructures” (1980). Findings revealed that the community has been stereotypically represented as the most marginalised ethnic group in Malaysia with the highest poverty rates, experiencing poor health conditions, confronted horrendously with limited amenities, and facing limited access to political power. The findings provide a novel insight into the ways the Orang Asli community are represented in media and serves as a wake-up call for a more neutral representation of the community in media.

LOGISTICS LOADED WITH SUPPLY CHAINS
Authors: FICOŃ Krzysztof , ZIĘCINA Marcin
Published: March 2021

W pracy podjęto ciągle otwartą dyskusję nad rolą, miejscem i znaczeniem tradycyjnej logistyki w procesie zarządzania łańcuchami dostaw. W tym celu podano wybrane definicje łańcuchów dostaw i logistyki, które posłużyły do identyfikacji systemowych współzależności i relacji między tymi kategoriami. We wstępie przedstawiono genezę i wojskowe korzenie pojęcia logistyki, która dopiero z czasem na gruncie gospodarki rynkowej zaczęła funkcjonować w strukturze rozmaitych łańcuchów dostaw. Dalej szeroko zostały omówione najbardziej popularne w literaturze definicje łańcuchów dostaw oscylujące wokół jego tradycyjnych ujęć funkcjonalno-organizacyjnych. Wskazano także na miejsce klasycznych procesów logistycznych, takich jak transport, magazynowanie i opakowania w kształtowaniu funkcjonalności łańcuchów dostaw. Usługowa logistyka pełni funkcję swoistego spoiwa łączącego poszczególne ogniwa łańcucha dostaw, gwarantując jego spójność i funkcjonalną ciągłość. Przedmiotem szczególnych analiz była dyskusja wokół podażowej lub popytowej natury łańcucha dostaw. Z punktu widzenia pryncypiów gospodarki rynkowej dominującym wyznacznikiem łańcucha dostaw powinna być jego funkcja ssąca, obrazująca prymat popytu rynkowego nad wtórną podażą rynkową. To pierwotne potrzeby klientów, czyli popyt rynkowy determinują celowość istnienia określonego łańcucha dostaw. Niestety dominujący w literaturze łańcuch dostaw jednoznacznie preferuje stronę podażową, co stanowi pewnego rodzaju antytezę gospodarki rynkowej. Z uwagi na liczne kontrowersje wokół tytułowego pojęcia „łańcuch dostaw” przeanalizowano takie jego aspekty logistyczne jak: rynkowe relacje popyt – podaż, struktura sieciowa i łańcuchowa, różnorodność asortymentowa, rozległość przestrzenna oraz generowane przez niego efekty synergiczne. Na zakończenie zbadano związki semantyczno-mnogościowe między pojęciem logistyki i łańcucha dostaw. Celem pracy był dwugłos autorów w kwestii tak bardzo dyskusyjnej i chyba nigdy niezamkniętej, jak relacje między podejściem logistycznym a pragmatyką łańcuchów dostaw. Do zbadania tego problemu posłużono się metodą przeglądu i krytyczną analizą literatury, rekapitulując w zakończeniu uwagi i wnioski płynące z przeprowadzonych badań.

Ovarian cancer is the third type of gynecologic cancer in terms of prevalence after cervical and uterinecancer. The disease is known as the silent killer as it is slowly spread without a diagnosis, which leads to theworst prognosis and high mortality rate. Libya shows low disease incidence while the high mortality rate isseen in developed countries due to a lack of proper diagnostic and treatment options. This research aims tounderstand the various risk factors of ovarian cancer among the women in Libya. A questionnaire is usedin a quantitative research methodology using stratified random sample over the population is divided in twoclasses namely healthy and diseased, based on earlier diagnosis and ovarian cancer care. The diseased andhealthy women were targeted in a written survey in different hospitals and clinics in Libya. The data analysisis done in four stages. The first stage is cleaning and coding of the data. The second step is the demographicprofile of the respondents. The third stage. Frequency distribution of the data in order to compare the healthyand diseased women. The fourth stage is the linear logistic regression in order to determine the risk factorsfor ovarian cancer and test the research hypotheses. The logistic regression analysis indicated good fit of themodel. The model was able to correctly predicted 81.4 % of the cases which is 19.6 % increase over the nullmodel.

SISTEM BIKAMERAL DI INDONESIA SEBAGAI FUNGSI LEGISLASI DEWAN PERWAKILAN DAERAH DITINJAU DARI PERSPEKTIF MASLAHAH
Authors: Amaluddin Zainal
Published: March 2021

The Legislative Function of the Regional Representative Council The bicameral structure, especially in Indonesia, is viewed from a maslahah perspective. This study aims to analyze: (1) What is the legislative function of the Regional Representative Council in the bicameral system in Indonesia after the enactment of Law No.17 of 2014 concerning MD3, (2) What is the legislative function of the Regional Representative Council when viewed from the Maslahah perspective. This research is a type of normative legal research using two approaches, namely legislation and history. The statutory approach aims to examine in depth the various regulations governing the legislative duties and functions of the DPD, while the historical approach is used to understand the parliamentary system in Indonesia. After the data has been collected, the data is analyzed using descriptive analysis method which aims to describe the object under study in order to get a comprehensive picture. Furthermore, the data is analyzed based on maslahah theory using deductive methods because it analyzes through reasoning from a general form to achieve a special form. The results showed that: the legislative authority of the DPD which was originally expanded by the Constitutional Court in its decision No. 92 / PUU-X / 2012 apparently were not accommodated in the formulation of Law No.17 of 2014, this is evident in the MD3 Law that still contains several articles that again narrow down the constitutional authority of the DPD. If viewed from the maslahah perspective, the legislative functions of the DPD and Ahlul halli wal 'aqd in the Islamic constitutional system are very different. Although both have the same authority, namely in the field of legislation, the authority of Ahlul halliwal 'aqd is clearer and not as clear as the DPD legislation, besides that the DPD has not been placed equal to the DPR and the President in exercising its authority as a legislative institution especially after the enactment of Law No. .17 of 2014.
On the Typology of Translations of R. M. Rilke's Poetry into English
Authors: Вороневская Н.В.
Published: March 2021

В статье рассматриваются разновременные переводы XXI сонета первой части «Сонетов к Орфею» Р. М. Рильке, выполненные британскими и американскими переводчиками. Изучение типологии поэтического перевода на примере лирического цикла Рильке основывается на классификации поэтического перевода, разработанной Р. Р. Чайковским. Проанализированные в статье переводы XXI сонета первой части в интерпретациях американских переводчиков Р. Блая и Л. Норриса (в соавторстве с А. Килом) представлены прозаическим и адекватным переводами соответственно. Британский поэт и переводчик Д. Патерсон использует сонеты Рильке как основу для создания поэтической версии оригинала, навеянной мотивами переводимого произведения. Сравнение трех переводов XXI сонета позволяет сделать выбор в пользу адекватного перевода Л. Норриса и А. Кила, в котором воссозданы не только образы оригинала, но и его уникальная поэтическая форма. В прозаической интерпретации сонета Р. Блая не учтены ни жанровые характеристики сонета, ни индивидуально-авторский стиль Рильке.

The article deals with the different-time translations of the XXI sonnet of the first part of “Sonnets to Orpheus” by R. M. Rilke made by British and American translators. The study of the typology of poetic translation with examples drawn fromRilke’s lyric cycle is based on the classification of poetic translation developed by R. R. Tchaikovsky. The analyzed translations of the XXI sonnet of the first part in the interpretations of the American translators R. Bly and L. Norris (co-authored with A. Keel) are presented by prosaic and adequate translations, respectively. Inspired by Rilke’s original, the British poet and translator
D. Paterson uses Rilke’s sonnets as a basis for creating his poetic version (i. e. interpretation based on the original) of the German sonnets. Comparing three English translations of the XXI sonnet allows us to make
a choice in favor of the adequate translation made by L. Norris and A. Keel, in which not only the images of the original but also its unique poetic form are thoroughly recreated. In the prosaic interpretation of R. Bly’s sonnet, neither the genre characteristics of the original sonnet nor Rilke’s individual style are taken into account.

Published: March 2021

Voice pathologies are irregular vibrations produced due to vocal folds and various factors malfunctioning. In medical science, novel machine learning algorithms are applied to construct a system to identify disorders that occur invoice. This study aims to extract the features from the audio signals of four chosen diseases from the SVD dataset, such as laryngitis, cyst, non-fluency syndrome, and dysphonia, and then compare the four results of machine learning algorithms, i.e., SVM, Naïve Byes, decision tree and ensemble classifier. In this project, we have used a comparative approach along with the new combination of features to detect voice pathologies which are laryngitis, cyst, non-fluency syndrome, and dysphonia from the SVD dataset. The combination of specific 13 MFCC (mel-frequency cepstral coefficients) features along with pitch, zero crossing rate (ZCR), spectral flux, spectral entropy, spectral centroid, spectral roll-off, and short term energy for more accurate detection of voice pathologies. It is proven that the combination of features extracted gives the best product on the audio, which split into 10 ms. Four machine learning classifiers, SVM, Naïve Bayes, decision tree and ensemble classifier for the inter classifier comparison, give 93.18, 99.45,100 and 51%, respectively. Out of these accuracies, both Naïve Bayes and the decision tree show the most promising results with a higher detection rate. Naïve Bayes and decision tree gives the highest reported outcomes on the selected set of features in the proposed methodology. The SVM has also been concluded to be the commonly used voice condition identification algorithm.
La ‘costruzione’ del paesaggio funerario : dinamiche di integrazione e filtri funerari nella necropoli di Pithekoussai
Authors: Nizzo Valentino
Published: March 2021

La necropoli di Pithekoussai, nelle sue prime fasi, fu utilizzata per circa 150 anni. La parte scavata del sepolcreto contiene oltre 600 tombe, la maggior parte delle quali distribuite tra il 740 e il 680 a.C. Grazie agli scavi condotti da Giorgio Buchner sono state raccolte fondamentali informazioni sulle pratiche funerarie. Uno degli aspetti più interessanti emersi dall’analisi della stratigrafia è consistito nella reinterpretazione dell’evoluzione diacronica e demografica della necropoli. Ciò ha fornito dati estremamente importanti sia sulla struttura dei gruppi funerari, sia sul modo in cui il paesaggio rituale è stato organizzato. L’analisi ha consentito di evidenziare che la comunità non ha praticato nella sepoltura formale particolari discriminazioni funerarie fondate su classi di età, genere, status sociale e, forse, nemmeno in base all’origine etnica dei defunti. I dati a disposizione suggeriscono infatti un significativo grado di integrazione e ibridazione culturale, aspetto di particolare interesse considerando il contesto storico. Dal punto di vista metodologico il presente contributo cercherà di combinare spunti e modelli derivati dall’antropologia culturale, in una prospettiva che in altra sede ho recentemente definito: «constructing deathscape».
Sepolture in prediis e abuso del diritto in frode ai creditori
Authors: Lazzarini Sergio
Published: March 2021

La prospettiva di rendere un bene non aggredibile dai creditori pur mantenendone la fruizione materiale rappresenta evidente interesse del debitore. Nel mondo romano, l’inalienabilità delle res religiosae, in quanto res extra commercium, è talvolta apparsa lo strumento giuridico utile per perseguire tale risultato. Orazio nelle Satire attesta il ricorrere della destinazione ad uso sepolcrale di vastissime aree per sostenerne la totale natura religiosa (quindi extra commercium), al precipuo scopo di sottrarle soprattutto alle esecuzioni promosse da creditori e fisco. Ciò indurrà l’ordinamento ad individuare correttivi, affermando un criterio di funzionalità, alla luce del quale la res religiosa non era individuata nella sua consistenza materiale secondo la mera volontà del fondatore, ma piuttosto attraverso canoni di effettiva utilità e di non eccessività, affidati a valutazioni discrezionali circa il vantaggio ai fini dei riti sepolcrali e circa il profilo quantitativo. Criteri che, constatando nella condotta l’assenza di un effettivo contenuto sostanziale proprio del diritto riconosciuto dall’ordinamento e l’esclusivo esito contrario ai valori per i quali il diritto stesso è posto, caratterizzano l’attuale nozione di ‘abuso del diritto’, pur non potendosi ravvisare l’esistenza di un compiuto regime dell’abuso del diritto nell’esperienza del diritto romano classico. Peraltro, in una prospettiva contraria, proprio il sepolcro, attraverso il suo pregnante contenuto memoriale, poteva essere posto ad indicare la ferma volontà di adempiere.
I resti umani delle discariche di epoca romana dello scavo ex Parco Novi Sad (Modena)
Authors: Mariotti Valentina , Labate Donato , Malnati Luigi , Belcastro Maria Giovanna
Published: March 2021

Il sito del parco Novi Sad, scavato sotto la direzione della Soprintendenza per i Beni Archeologici dell'Emilia Romagna (2009-2011) subito a N-W del centro storico di Modena, corrispondente alla zona periurbana della città romana di Mutina, ha permesso di documentare la presenza di numerosi reperti umani in contesto non sepolcrale e di formulare ipotesi sulle ragioni del loro accumulo. I resti rinvenuti, essenzialmente crani e ossa lunghe, provengono da tre discariche pubbliche (SE, SW e NW) utilizzate, nel complesso, tra il II sec. a.C. e l’inizio del II sec. d.C., e da una vasca per piscicoltura pertinente ad edifici rustici e successivamente trasformata in discarica, utilizzata per le deposizioni nel I-inizi II sec. d.C. I reperti umani in studio (97 crani, 13 mandibole, 89 ossa lunghe, pochi altri frammenti), rinvenuti sparsi, si riferiscono ad individui di entrambi i sessi, prevalentemente adulti (90% del campione). Molte ossa presentano evidenti tracce di trattamento del cadavere (disarticolazione, scarnificazione). Il carattere secondario dei depositi appare chiaro. L’intero contesto farebbe pensare, nel complesso, allo smaltimento di resti umani di insepolti (giustiziati, gladiatori o vittime di combattimenti), ma la presenza di estese tracce di scarnificazione sulla maggior parte delle ossa lunghe pone problemi interpretativi di non facile soluzione.
Women in Brussels street names. Topography of a minoritisation
Authors: Ouali Nouria , Lannoy Pierre , Desamoury Virginie , Guilleaume Sandrine , Mayné Fanny , Merville Sophie , Odier Charlotte , Thébaux Adèle
Published: March 2021

The article proposes an examination of odonyms in Brussels, i.e. the names of its streets, through the prism of gender. After a systematic survey of street names and the characteristics of the female figures honoured – which reveals a glaring imbalance between the female and male street names in Brussels (there are ten times fewer female odonyms than male odonyms in the Region) – the article analyses the practices and strategies used by municipal representatives to feminise street names and do justice to the memory of women through a transformation of the toponymy, among other things. On the one hand, it reveals the constraints linked to legislation, urban morphology and gender stereotypes which weigh on the undertaking to increase the number of female street names and, on the other hand, it analyses the action of elected representatives and the influence of feminist organisations which fight against the minoritisation of women in the materiality of the Brussels urban space.
Les intellectuels pacifistes allemands et la « suggestion de la guerre »
Authors: Alexandre Philippe
Published: March 2021

L’analyse des causes de la guerre et la recherche des moyens d’y remédier sont deux aspects importants de la réflexion éthique et de l’action des pacifistes. Cette étude se propose d’étudier le cas de l’Allemagne dans les années qui ont précédé la Première Guerre mondiale. Parmi les intellectuels qui ont, à cette époque, soutenu le mouvement pacifiste, les publicistes et les juristes ont joué, à côté des pasteurs et des pédagogues, un rôle de premier plan. Utilisant des concepts de la sociologie de leur époque, ils ont cherché à montrer que la « suggestion » de la guerre à travers la presse constituait un danger. Pour se créer une audience, ils ont fondé des associations, diffusé des revues et des brochures. Mais, finalement, la diversité des formes de la suggestion et la complexité du processus de décision au moment du déclenchement d’une guerre empêchent de déterminer avec exactitude l’influence de la presse sur l’opinion et les décideurs.
Vers un anthropomorphisme critique
Authors: Choné Aurélie
Published: March 2021

À travers quelques exemples issus de la littérature de langue allemande, cet article se propose de déconstruire la notion d’anthropomorphisme (appliquée aux animaux), voire de la réhabiliter dans le sens d’un usage critique. Pour ce faire, les approches théoriques issues de deux champs de recherche seront mobilisées : l’anthropologie de la nature et le Nouveau Matérialisme. On montrera dans un premier temps comment la thèse du pluralisme ontologique formulée par Philippe Descola peut amener à un usage critique de la notion d’anthropomorphisme dans les études littéraires et culturelles, celle-ci se présentant différemment dans le cadre d’une ontologie non naturaliste comme l’analogisme, et perdant même toute raison d’être dans le contexte d’une ontologie de la nature comme l’animisme. On analysera ensuite comment la notion de forme (morphḗ) a pu être retravaillée, chez Goethe notamment, dans le sens d’un anthropomorphisme de questionnement, avant de mettre en évidence, à la lumière de la ballade de Friedrich Dürrenmatt Minotaurus, à quel point il est difficile d’échapper à l’anthropomorphisme dans le cadre du naturalisme. Enfin il s’agira de voir, en s’appuyant sur quelques récits de Kafka, en quoi l’anthropos de l’anthropomorphisme, ainsi que la relation sujet-objet qu’il présuppose, ont fait l’objet d’une déconstruction en règle dans le cadre du Nouveau Matérialisme, amenant à repenser complètement la notion d’anthropomorphisme.
Le singe-soldat de Woyzeck
Authors: Hamm Élisabeth
Published: March 2021

Dans Woyzeck, pièce inachevée et fragmentaire de Georg Büchner (1837), la question de l’anthropomorphisme est abordée lorsque le singe présent au début de la scène de foire (H1,1) entre en scène. Il s’agit d’un singe déguisé en soldat, qui symbolise ainsi dans un jeu de théâtre dans le théâtre le public du spectacle de la foire, composé en grande partie de militaires. Non seulement il présente des caractéristiques physiques humaines, puisqu’il se tient debout et porte un habit militaire, mais il imite aussi le comportement humain en faisant la révérence, en tirant au pistolet ou en jouant de la musique. Cet article porte sur la représentation de ce cas d’anthropomorphisme dans le film de Werner Herzog (1979), ainsi que sa mise en scène dans deux spectacles contemporains, celui de Stéphane Braunschweig (1999) et celui de Leander Haußmann (2014). L’analyse de ces spectacles permettra de voir en quoi la portée imaginaire de l’animal-humain permet d’enrichir les potentialités dans les pratiques scéniques et en quoi la scénographie peut mettre en valeur la représentation de l’anthropomorphisme. Nous envisagerons alors la mise en scène de l’anthropomorphisme comme un enjeu esthétique participant, dans le cas de Woyzeck, à une critique de la société.
Zariski dense orbits for regular self-maps on split semiabelian varieties

Published: March 2021

We provide a direct proof of the Medvedev–Scanlon’s conjecture from Medvedev and Scanlon (Ann. Math. Second Series 179(2014), 81–177) regarding Zariski dense orbits under the action of regular self-maps on split semiabelian varieties defined over a field of characteristic

. Besides obtaining significantly easier proofs than the ones previously obtained in Ghioca and Scanlon (Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 369(2017), 447–466; for the case of abelian varieties) and Ghioca and Satriano (Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 371(2019), 6341–6358; for the case of semiabelian varieties), our method allows us to exhibit numerous starting points with Zariski dense orbits, which the methods from Ghioca and Scanlon (Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 369(2017), 447–466) and Ghioca and Satriano (Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 371(2019), 6341–6358) could not provide.

The study analysed constraints to women involvement in fish farming and processing in Anambra State Nigeria. Multi-stage sampling  procedure was employed in selecting 90 women fish farmers. Data were analysed using percentage and mean as well as ordinary least  square regression. The study revealed that the women mostly used concrete pond (65.6%), the majority (70.0%) have between 1 and 3 ponds. Catfish was mainly cultured by the women (86.7%). The foremost constraints faced by the women in fish farming were  inadequate capital ( = 3.31), inadequate land for expansion ( = 3.27), and high cost of fish pond establishment ( = 3.23). The coefficient of inadequate capital (-1.503) was significant at 1%, while the coefficients of inadequate land for expansion (-1.286), pre-occupation with other household chores (1.245), dominance by spouses (1.601) and high cost of fish pond establishment (- 1.768) were significant at 5% significant level. Providing low interest loans to active and registered women fish farmers, revisiting and amending the 1999 land reform, encouraging women to form formidable cooperative societies, among others were recommended by the study.

Student approaches and attitudes towards writing in German as a foreign language, using corpus-linguistic tools
Authors: Ortner Gwyndolen J. , Weber Undine S.
Published: March 2021

Linguistic researchers are optimistic about what corpora can offer language learners; however, very little empirical assessment of the direct use of corpus tools is reported on in context, especially for languages other than English. One method of assessing the effectiveness and value of corpus tools is by collecting students’ experiences of using them and establishing if they perceive benefits through using corpus tools. Following a qualitative questionnaire which examined student approaches to writing in German as a  foreign language, and a quantitative analysis of their writing, a writing module was designed and instituted at Rhodes University for third-year German Studies students. The writing module made use of both indirect (paper-based) and direct (computer-based) corpus-based methods to teach everyday academic vocabulary and formulaic expressions, based on materials developed for the WHiG project in the UK. This study presents an overview of the students’ attitudes and perspectives (as recorded in questionnaires and interviews), in order to give voice to the qualitative and subjective dimension of foreign language learning, which is often neglected in corpus-based studies. The participating students perceived an improvement in their writing through a changed approach to researching and using everyday academic German.

Keywords: German as a foreign language; student perceptions; teaching with corpora; everyday academic language; Deutsch als alltägliche Wissenschaftssprache; academic writing; students as co-creators of teaching materials.
I’m part of the collective: exploring the influence of L1 culture on communal representation through the use of we, us and our in Nigerian undergraduates’ written texts
Authors: Adeyemi Remilekun Iyabo
Published: March 2021

This study explores the influence of L1 culture on Nigerian tertiary learners’ use of first-person plural personal pronouns we, us and our in written texts to indicate the collective, i.e., the writers’ social community. The quantitative and semantic analysis of the learners’  use of the pronouns was done using the Nigerian learner English corpus (NLEC) in comparison to Louvain corpus of native English student essays (LOCNESS). The quantitative analysis indicates the overuse of first-person plural pronouns by Nigerian learners  compared to their LOCNESS counterparts. The study reports on the semantic analysis and reveals that the learners’ overuse of these pronouns can be traced to their cultural background of collective shared experience, communality, inclusiveness and solidarity. This is evident in the collocates of the pronouns, e.g., ‘we live,’ ‘we have,’ ‘technology has helped us,’' ‘it gives us’, ‘our society,’ ‘our nation.’ The student-writers’ use of these pronouns indicates their involvement in issues of discourse and they emphasize collective  experience. The findings of the study confirm writers make discoursal choices that align them with their L1 community which is traceable in their L2 written texts.

Keywords: pronouns; culture; undergraduates; academic writing; student-writers; second language

The management of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) gradually turns into an individualized approach with the application of targeted therapies. Venetoclax is a BCL-2 inhibitor that is synergistic with azacitidine. In this case series, 14 patients diagnosed with relapsed / refractory AML and 1 MDS RAEB-1 were followed up with venetoclax + azacitidine in the Hematology Department Bursa Uludag University Faculty of Medicine were evaluated. The best responses obtained with venetoclax + azacitidine were complete remission (CR) in one patient, complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi) in one patient, morphological leukemia-free state (MLFS) in 4 patients, and partial response (PR) in one patient. The median time to first response with treatment was one month (0.5-5). The time to enter early remission is critical. For this reason, deaths due to infection should be prevented. Although the toxicities of this combination therapy can be managed, close follow-up of the patients is mandatory. In conclusion, this combination therapy is promising as it is relatively well-tolerated, improves the quality of life, and prolongs survival.

Published: March 2021

This study investigated the relationship between human resource development practices and job performance of academic staff at Mbarara University of Science and Technology. The human resource development practices in relation to job performance of academic staff were performance appraisal, training and promotion. The study used the correlational research design on a sample of 150 respondents with data collected using a questionnaire survey. Data were analysed using quantitative methods. Descriptive results revealed that performance of academic staff was high. The implementation of performance appraisal was fair (moderate). Regression results showed that training and promotion had positive and significant influence on job performance of academic staff. Nevertheless, the influence of performance appraisal on job performance of academic staff was not significant. Therefore, it was concluded that the implementation of performance appraisal was weak to have a significant influence on performance of academic staff. Training was essential for performance of academic staff in the university and promotion was a prerequisite for performance of academic staff. Hence, it was recommended that human resource director and administrators in the university should strengthen the implementation of performance appraisal, training should be prioritized to enhance performance of academic staff in the university and promotion should be given significant priority to promote performance of academic staff.

Im Rahmen der erweiterten Lipiddiagnostik kann die Bestimmung von Lipoprotein-Subklassen hilfreich sein, um das Atheroskleroserisiko besser einzuschätzen. Eine pauschale Einordnung als „gutes HDL-Cholesterin“ und „böses LDL-Cholesterin“ gilt heute als überholt.
