Authors: Pagente Aler L. , Crisologo Bernardo T. , Doncillo Ma. Liberty B. , Leopoldo Nadeth R.
Published: December 2024

There have been many studies about the advantages of gamification method in the teaching and learning process of the students. Studies have shown that it ignites interest, motivates engagements, stimulates positive character and significantly enable students to learn. However, there have been limited studies of incorporating gamification to students in teaching core subjects especially to a practical field in Technology and Livelihood Education. To contribute to the limited studies, this research aims to analyze lived experiences of teachers who employ gamification method using technology applications in teaching core subjects in Technology and Livelihood Education. The six participants of the study were college instructors who handled major subjects for the second semester in the academic year of 2023 to 2024 at a State University in Oroquieta City, Misamis Occidental, Philippines. The research employed phenomenology as its qualitative design. The researchers employed purposive sampling to choose participants and utilized a semi-structured questionnaire for the focus group discussions. The instrument underwent content evaluation by experts. The researchers analyzed the recorded data and transcribed them through conventional content analysis approach to identify and analyze recurring themes. There are two themes that emerged from the discussion: the first theme is “game-based applications are effective methods in teaching and learning process” and the second theme is “barriers in the implementation”. With these, results showed that gamification method in teaching major subjects promotes active participation of students and allows innovative strategies for teachers to employ in class despite having various difficulties. Hence, it is imperative to invest funds for the necessary materials for gamification methods.

Published: December 2024

The study examined the contribution of self-imagery and self-talk to the performance of the athletes. It employs a phenomenological research design. The study used purposive sampling to select athletes as the primary informants and coaches for triangulation. Data were collected through In-Depth Interviews and Focus Group Discussions, with thematic analysis employed to interpret the data. A total of (10) participants were interviewed using a semi-structured interview guide specifically (5) participants for the Focus-group discussion and (5) participants for the In-depth interview were employed. The findings underscored the significant role of positive self-talk and self-imagery in enhancing athletic performance. Athletes used these methods to stay focused, handle tension, and increase confidence in crucial moments. Self-imagery aided in competition preparation, skill improvement, and visualizing success. It also showed that these psychological strategies boost motivation, focus, and performance, but their effectiveness can vary based on individual differences and training needs. Integrating these techniques into daily routines can be complex because of time constraints. Athletes can improve their performance by consistently applying these strategies for competition preparation and mental visualization of success, demonstrating the effectiveness of these psychological techniques.

Authors: Nurfudiniyah Nurfudiniyah , Hakim Lukman , Fonny Jangki Dausat
Published: December 2024

Social media, including YouTube, has emerged as a significant aspect of contemporary lifestyles in society. Youtubers need to be able to present interesting content ideas in order to attract more viewers and advertisers. Zavilda TV YouTube Channel turns Islam into a content idea and commodifies it to attract more viewers. Religion and spirituality are no longer something exclusive, but have become a commodity and a public broadcast, used as an object and capital in the political economy of the media. Thus, this study aims to uncover realities that reflect the practice of commodification of religion in the Islamic social experiment targeting women. This research uses a qualitative approach with a literature review. Dialogue manuscripts, titles, video descriptions and thumbnails for Zavilda TV are research objects that are studied using observation and documentation methods. The study of the political economy of media and critical discourse analysis are used to uncover and explain commodification in a more critical and in-depth way. The results found in this study are forms of religious commodification in the form of religious symbols and Islamic songs, as well as religious reflections that are given to the target to make them willing to wear the headscarf. The issue of religious tolerance is also included in the content by targeting women of religions other than Islam to try wearing the headscarf. There is a relationship that is lamely built through the clothing of talent and targets like preachers and mad'u. Zavilda TV attempts to disseminate its understanding of religion. The channel asserts that its interpretation of religious doctrine is accurate and obligatory for all Muslim women, even if some of the remarks given tend to discriminate.

Authors: MOHAMED CHERIF Walid Yassine
Published: December 2024

Amyloidosis is a rare pathology resulting from the deposition of fibrillar amyloid
proteins in various tissues, modifying the structure of the affected tissues. It represents
less than 10% of amyloidosis and 0.17 to 1.5% of benign tumors of the larynx. We
report the case of a 70 years old patient with a history of chronic dysphonia evolving
for 8 years but neglected, who attended for severe laryngeal dyspnea. Clinical and
endoscopic examination showed the presence of a yellowish polypoid tumor of the two
vocal cords; the anatomopathological study of multiple biopsies carried was in favor of
amyloidosis. The treatment was surgical (laser) and an extension assessment was
made in search of a systemic form.

Authors: HAMMA Amine
Published: December 2024

The fusion of the lid margins is a normal stage of fetal development until the fifth or
even the seventh month of gestation. During ankyloblepharon there is a persistence
after birth of partial or complete adhesion between the lid margins of the upper and
lower eyelids. We report the case of a 3-days-old male newborn referred to us for the
management of a bilateral eyelids fusion. The ophthalmological examination notes a
temporal partial fusion of the upper and lower right eyelids by an abnormal tissue, the
same aspect is observed on the left with in addition a thin band of this tissue in the
center of the eyelids next to the pupil measuring approximately 1 mm in width and 3
mm in length. Tissue bands were excised with Vannas scissors, bleeding was minimal.
The aesthetic and functional result was immediate with good post-operative follow-up.
Ankyloblepharon filiforme adnatum could be a sign of multisystem disease that must
be looked for. Treatment should be done as soon as possible to prevent possible
amblyopia.
Very weak diagnostic value of vascular examination in peripheral artery disease in patients with coronary artery disease: report of a hospital sample selected patients
Authors: Merghit Rachid
Published: December 2024

Introduction. Ankle-brachial systolic pressure index (ABPI) measurement is
considered as an essential and a very specific tool for peripheral arterial disease
(PAD). Therefore, it should follow automatically and straightly any vascular
examination of a target population. Aim. The objective of our study is to demonstrate
the benefit of completing any vascular examination of a target population by measuring
the ankle-brachial systolic pressure index (ABPI) at rest and possibly the use of other
physiological tests ABPI-effort and the big toe systolic pressure index (TBPI). Patients
and methods. On a sample of 300 consecutive patients with coronary artery disease
(CAD) during the year 2016 hospitalized in the cardiology department of the University
Hospital of Constantine, screening for PAD was performed by the following
investigations: questioning and vascular examination, measurement of ABPI-ankle,
supplement by measurement of TBPI if arterial incompressibility and by measurement
of ABPI- effort if the ABPI at rest is limited, The processing and use of the data called
on the software SPSS22. Results. In our study, an abnormal clinical examination was
noted in only 18.3% (11% pathological palpation and 7.3% pathological auscultation).
This finding aligns with data in the literature confirming the low contribution of clinical
examination in the diagnosis of PAD. The contribution of IPS in our study was crucial,
pathological in 43% of cases, making the diagnosis of PAD in 34.7%, isolated Medial
Arterial Calcification (MAC) in 8.3%, and infra-clinical PAD, diagnosed in
4.7%. Conclusion. ABPI is the simplest and most widely used exploration method for
diagnosing PAD, as an immediate adjunct to vascular examination, in order to reduce
the number of false negatives.
Assessment of bone mineral density by dual-energy Xray absorptiometry in hemodialysis patients
Authors: BOUSAKHRIA Mahmoud
Published: December 2024

Introduction. Chronic renal failure (CRF) is a common pathology that causes early
disturbance of phosphate and calcium metabolism, leading to secondary
hyperparathyroidism, affecting bone and mineral metabolism, and bone loss is
common and silent. It is characterized by osteopenia, deterioration of bone quality,
and altered bone structure. Our work aims to determine bone status by examining the
clinical, biological characteristics and bone mineral density (BMD) of hemodialysis
patients at Constantine Regional Military University Hospital (CRMUH). Methods. This
was a prospective study involving all CRMUH hemodialysis patients. Biological
assessment assesses bone damage and the elements used in current practice
(calcemia, phosphate and parathyroid hormone) and two-photon absorptiometry
(DXA) assesses BMD. Results. This study involved 18 male and female patients with
a sex ratio of 1 and a mean age of 50.94 ± 17.46 years who received hemodialysis for
a mean treatment duration of 8.72 years. Hypocalcemia accounted for 44.4%,
hyperphosphatemia accounted for 61.1%, and hyperparathyroidism accounted for
50% of patients. The mean BMD for our entire population was 0.871 ± 0.174 g/cm² in
the lumbar spine and 0.679 ± 0.099 g/cm² in the left hip. Mean T-scores were -1.628
± 1.197 SD for the lumbar spine and -1.861 ± 0.622 DS for the left hip. We found 33.3%
of osteoporosis (83.3% trabecular osteoporosis) and 66.7% of osteopenia, including
83.3% cortical osteopenia. Multivariate analysis identified 3 risk factors for
osteoporosis in a statistically significant manner, namely, duration of hemodialysis
greater than 10 years, hypocalcemia, and hyperparathyroidism greater than 500
Pg/ml. Conclusions. Disturbed calcium phosphate metabolism and its skeletal
consequences are certain and common complications in hemodialysis patients. It has
a greater effect on cortical bone. Early detection and preventive measures are
necessary.
Epidemiological profile of colorectal cancers in the East and South-East region of Algeria 2014 – 2018
Authors: MOUSSAOUI Hiba
Published: December 2024

Introduction. Colorectal cancer is the third leading cause of cancer death in the world
and its incidence continues to increase in developing countries adopting the Western
way of life. Objective. The purpose of this regional study covering 19 wilayas of the
country is to provide data on the incidence of colorectal cancer, to study its
geographical distribution and its evolution. Material and Methods. This is a
multicenter descriptive epidemiological study from January 1, 2014 to December 31,
2018 on all cases of colorectal cancer diagnosed in the Eastern region and Southeastern of Algeria. The regional incidence of cancers is estimated from validated
registries. Results. The gender distribution of colorectal cancer between 2014 – 2018
shows that: In men, the crude incidence rate was 14,6 per 100 000 inhabitants, which
corresponds to a standardized rate of 19.3 per 100 000 inhabitants and it represents
15.9% of all male cancers. In women, the gross incidence rate was 14.0 per 100 000
inhabitants, which corresponds to a standardized rate of 18.2 per 100 000 inhabitants
and represents 11.2% of all female cancers. The incidence rates of these cancers
increase with age from 40 years in both sexes, they are higher in Annaba in both sexes.
Conclusion. the frequency of colorectal cancer will not stop growing in this region if
no preventive measures are taken such as a decrease in the prevalence of the main
risk factors, namely smoking and obesity. However, recent advances in screening,
early detection and treatment options will reduce mortality even in the face of
increasing incidence.
A Review: The Relationship Between Exercise and Anxiety Levels
Authors: Alhusseini Hussein Ali Abdulabbas , Hrefish Zaman Ahmed , Hussein Mohammed Abbas
Published: December 2024

Anxiety disorders are among the most common challenges of mental health, impacting  people across all demographics and lessening overall quality of life. While traditional  managements, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and selective serotonin reuptake  inhibitors (SSRIs), are commonly used, these interferences may not be appropriate for  everyone due to personal preferences or side effects. Therefore, there is increasing interest in  non-pharmacological substitutes like exercise. This review inspects the multifaceted  relationship between anxiety and exercise, framed within the biopsychosocial model, which  studies the interplay of social factors, psychological, and biological. Exercise has been shown  to lessen anxiety symptoms by chronic and acute mechanisms, including physiological  changes like neurotransmitter modulation, cognitive benefits such as improved executive  functioning, and emotional advantages like enhanced self-efficacy and mood. The review  highlights both immediate and long-term anxiolytic effects of exercise, supported by  neurobiological and psychosocial evidence. However, questions remain about the most  effective exercise regimens for anxiety reduction and the mechanisms through which they  work. Understanding these aspects is crucial for developing targeted exercise-based  interventions to promote mental health.

Authors: Hasan Md Mehedi , Chowdhury Md  Solaiman Chowdhury , Syed Muhammod Ali Reza  , Moral Iqbal Hossain , Md Enamul Haque
Published: December 2024

This study investigates the transition from traditional in-person education to online learning in post-COVID-19 Bangladesh, with a focus on how user experience, attitude effect motivation, and acceptance influence the efficacy of digital education. Using a sample of 200 respondents, the study employed correlation, regression, t-tests, and chi-square analyses to understand these relationships. The correlation analysis revealed a strong positive relationship between attitude effect motivation and acceptance of online learning suggesting that enhancing the quality of online platforms can significantly boost students’ motivation. User experience was moderately correlated with acceptance underscoring the importance of user-friendly design in fostering greater acceptance. However, the weaker correlation between user experience and motivation indicates that improving user experience alone may not directly increase motivational attitudes, highlighting the multifaceted nature of online learning acceptance. Regression analysis found that learning platform usability was the strongest predictor of acceptance, followed by user experience and motivation. T-test results revealed no significant difference in user experience across genders, suggesting that both male and female students engage similarly with online learning platforms. A chi-square test indicated no significant association between location and institute type, prompting further research into other factors influencing institutional choice. These findings offer actionable insights for educational institutions and online learning providers, emphasizing the importance of improving platform usability, enhancing motivation, and developing inclusive digital learning environments.

Published: December 2024

Accurate flight delay prediction is fundamental to establish the more efficient airline business. Recent studies have been focused on applying machine learning methods to predict the flight delay. Most of the previous prediction methods are conducted in a single route or airport. This paper explores a broader scope of factors which may potentially influence the flight delay, and compares several machine learning-based models in designed generalized flight delay prediction tasks. To build a dataset for the proposed scheme, automatic dependent surveillance broadcast (ADS-B) messages are received, pre-processed, and integrated with other information such as weather condition, flight schedule, and airport information. The designed prediction tasks contain different classification tasks and a regression task. Experimental results show that long short-term memory (LSTM) is capable of handling the obtained aviation sequence data, but overfitting problem occurs in our limited dataset. Compared with the previous schemes, the proposed random forest-based model can obtain higher prediction accuracy (90.2% for the binary classification) and can overcome the overfitting problem.

Authors: Andrade Fernando Antonio Rodrigues de , Christopoulos Basile Georges Campos
Published: December 2024

A evolução da tecnologia tem impressionado a comunidade mundial pela sua velocidade de expansão e transformação do trabalho. A substituição de mão de obra humana por robôs e inteligência artificial tem preocupado organismos internacionais. Pesquisas demonstram que algumas profissões desaparecerão nos próximos anos e a consequente desvalorização da mão de obra humana em face desta automação serão inevitáveis. Por sua vez, a tributação está sendo debatida internacionalmente por conta desta revolução denominada de indústria 4.0. O objeto do presente estudo é analisar como os tributos poderão agir de forma indutora na proteção da mão de obra humana em decorrência da substituição por robôs e inteligência artificial. Nosso objetivo é identificar se o sistema tributário brasileiro e a recente proposta de reforma tributária estão aptos a proteger empregos diante desta revolução. Como metodologia, optamos por uma abordagem qualitativa-empírica e foram utilizados os métodos de leitura a doutrina, leis e regulamentos. Em termos de resultados preliminares, a pesquisa revelou que a reforma tributária silencia proteção dos empregos através da tributação. Por outro lado, podemos utilizar preceitos constitucionais como fundamento normativo para proteger os empregos através da tributação de acordo com a utilização intensiva de mão de obra.

Fibroadenoma is a well encapsulated benign Tumor which arises from Hyperplasia of a Single Lobule and grows to a size of 3-5 cm. It is freely mobile and has been termed as a Breast Mouse. The Tumor is usually seen after the Breast development is complete in young women aged between 15 to 30 years and occasionally later years (Page no. 140, Jeffcoat’s Principles of Gynecology, International 5th Edition). According to Unani concept, the term Sala-E-Sadi is used for Fibroadenoma of breast. In Unani system of medicine, Humors/Aqlaat (Khoon, Balgam, Safra&Sauda)play an important role to maintain health condition. Imbalance of their proportion either quality and quantity can cause a disease condition, The main cause of Sala-E-Sadi is dearrangement in quality and quantity of Humor/Phlegm (Balgam) which means the liquefied form of Phlegmis converted in to a viscid form and their quantity also increases and gets accumulated in Breast tissue in the form Lump(Page no. 426, Sharah –e – Asbaab, Part II).

The COVID-19 pandemic produced the first nationwide extended educational disruption, posing many challenges for teachers obliged to use a distant teaching and learning paradigm. Educators adjusted curricular material, delivery, and assessment methods to accommodate and engage learners while maintaining academic objectives and reducing unnecessary stress for learners. Few teachers had prior experience with distance instruction; thus, they had little to no adaptive knowledge on which to depend. Constructivist Theory guided this qualitative study exploring teachers’ experiences in distance learning through a lens of adaptive expertise. A phenomenological qualitative design was applied to data acquired through interviews with teachers. The data was analyzed by identifying emerging themes. Thematic analysis was used for the collection of data. The findings indicate that during the implementation of HOLD, teachers modified their strategies and approach to cater to the needs of the learners and not overwhelm them. These changes had an impact on academic quality and consistency, as well as student learning assessment. Furthermore, teachers’ priorities shifted from academic achievement to learners’ well-being. Other teacher takeaways include ideas for future practice in traditional and distance learning settings and observations on how their distant learning experiences might affect their future as educators.

This study aims to explore factors that contribute to mine plan achievement which further impact the coal discrepancy phenomenon or the variance between actual coal mined and planned. Secondly, the purpose is to develop a reliable monitoring tool for accurate implementation of mining activities at each stage, particularly for short-term periods such as daily and weekly plans. Data collection was carried out using empirical data collection of coal mined achievement from some pits, along with monthly data on the technical aspects contributing to this achievement. The coal discrepancy phenomenon is significantly influenced by four major factors, namely the accuracy of the geological model, change in mining sequence, operational loss and optimized mining. Implementing this new planning monitoring system has significantly increased compliance with planned mining sequences, facilitates the achievement of the final form of the mine in each period impacting short-term coal mined achievement. This research utilizes original digitalization in mine planning monitoring systems to optimize the mining sequence and improve the coal discrepancy phenomenon. It is critical since in coal mines, different stages of the mining process impact not only the amount of coal mined but also the aggregate properties of coal produced. It supports a resilient coal value chain, especially in the overburden removal phase, as an upstream area of coal mining.

Published: December 2024

Due to ongoing political instability, climate variability, and limited infrastructure, South Sudan faces significant agricultural challenges. The underdevelopment of its agricultural sector contributes to high food insecurity and poverty levels. This research article explores how the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) can inform farm policy and practices in South Sudan. This study identifies critical behavioral drivers that promote sustainable farming practices by examining how farmers' attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control influence agricultural decisions. Applying TPB as a theoretical framework in designing interventions offers valuable insights for enhancing food security, reducing poverty, and building resilience in South Sudan's agricultural sector.
