Gender and Authority in Caryl Churchill’s Vinegar Tom (1976)
Authors: Rgwan Abdalhameed Shuash Researcher , Rana Ali Mhoodar Rese.
Published: July 2023

This article gives a feminist examination of Caryl Churchill’s Vinegar Tom (1976). This play is in reality, Churchill’s feminist lens through which the playwright offers an account of interactions of gender and authority via the 17th-century witchcraft trials in England from a distinctly feminist standpoint. It is – as a research article – a freshly developed consideration of that age that might build a different sort of history to the authorized male-made. In a significant way, part from this article, is to assess Churchill’s in terms of form and substance. The dramatist personifies revolutionary ideas presented in a fresh and original way. She majorly concentrates on the female-subjective status via her dramatic depiction and also builds a new women’s portrayal through the eyes of women instead of men. Janelle Reinelt (1989)’s feminist theory and the problem of performance is adopted to set a focus on two major concepts, namely gender and class. The subject of Vinegar Tom deals with extremely sensitive themes such, subjugation of women within a masculine society, rights, gender formation, women identity and sexual orientations. Such controversial issues are depicted via the employment of several inventive instruments and approaches. The majority of Churchill’s use of theatrical elements consists of doubling, monologues, music, and songs. Taking everything into consideration, this article searches in Churchill’s Vinegar Tom dramatically, theatrically, and historically. Using a variety of theatrical approaches to historical reconstruction, it portrays Churchill as a self-identified socialist feminist.
مفهوم الخواطر بين السلب والإيجاب عند الصوفية
Authors: اياد مطلك كطان د.
Published: July 2023

يعد مفهوم الخواطر من المفاهيم الصوفية المهمة التي تدخل ضمن الأُطر المعرفية  التي يقوم عليها نظام السلوك الروحي بجميع أبعادة المتعددة, فهو نظام قائم على أساس نظري وعملي في المنظومة الصوفية التي بها تتكشف المعاني الذوقية وفق ما يعرف بالتجربة الصوفية التي يحدد معناها بمطلق الإرادة والسعي نحو الغاية التي يعمد فيها المريد بالهمة العالية الى كسر حواجز العقبات التي تعيقه نحو بلوغ المراد.

عمل العرفاء والصوفية على ملاحظة تلك الواردات القلبية بشقيها السلبي والايجابي من اجل تطهير بيت القلب ومدى تأثيرها في السلوك الروحي والمعرفي الذي به تتحصل المعاني الباطنية  ,وملاحقة المداخل والمخارج التي تنتج عنها, وكيفية السيطرة على طائر الخيال الُمحلق حين ورودها عليه, لذا يعمد الصوفي الى ما يعرف بالمجاهدات الروحية , والرياضات النفسية المتعبة التي بها تتكشف سحب الظلام  وحجب العتمة التي تعيق المريد من رؤية ملكوت الله تعالى مجدة.لذلك عمدت إلى تحليل مفهوم الخواطر ومعناه في اللغة والاصطلاح وتقديم رؤية لذلك المفهوم وانواعة التي انقسمت بين الجانب السلبي والايجابي وبيان مدى أهميته في التجربة الصوفية عند السالك وبيان المحددات ومسارها في تلك التجربة الذاتية الفردية التي يتخلص من المعوقات التي تجتذبه نحو التسافل , فيما يقوده الخلاص منها نحو التكامل المعنوي.

O objetivo deste estudo baseia-se na apresentação dos resultados de uma revisão sistemática de literatura sobre investigação empírica relativa à relação entre a comunicação interna e a cultura organizacional. A comunicação interna diz respeito à comunicação produzida e estabelecida entre os colaboradores de uma organização. Por sua vez, a cultura organizacional remete para a identidade da empresa que é exposta pela forma como a mesma institui os seus negócios e trata os seus colaboradores e stakeholders. A amostra é constituída por cinco estudos empíricos que englobam pessoas com diferentes cargos e níveis de escolaridade e empresas. A recolha de dados foi sustentada na análise de estudos de casos, questionários e entrevistas. Os estudos centraram-se nos tipos de comunicação existentes, com foco na comunicação interna e na sua articulação com a cultura organizacional.  Os resultados desta análise revelaram que a comunicação interna está diretamente relacionada com a cultura organizacional e que a melhor estratégia de comunicação é transformar os funcionários em embaixadores da organização. As principais limitações do estudo incidem sobre o espaço temporal limitado, entre 2017 e 2022, e a dimensão da amostra. O valor deste estudo é traduzido numa melhor perceção dos constructos investigados e da sua relação.
Saturation, Meaning and Death
Authors: Stocchetti Matteo
Published: July 2023

The demand of a moratorium on the development of AI by influential representatives of tech giants is an ambivalent sign of fear. Baudrillard’s insights on the possible end of capitalism and its regime of simulation, offers opportunities to interpret this sign as the sudden awareness, among techno-corporate elites, that AI may bring about the end of capitalism through conditions of saturation, implosion, excess. These conditions, relates to the relationship between the fear of death and the role of textual competences or ‘meaning-making’ in tackling this fear. The production of ‘meaningless meaning’ through AI textual affordances challenges the status of the text and meaning-making as humans’ atavistic response to the fear of death. As the resiliency of capitalism depends on the suppression of (the fear of) death, the development of AI textual affordances meddles with this response and with the fear it suppresses, suggesting the possibility of technological ‘indeterminism’. Through the mediation of ‘organic’ intelligence and critical knowledge, the fears about AI and the concerns about the end of capitalism by saturation can be construed as preconditions for the epistemic revaluation of the human experience of life and the fear of death against the dehumanizing effects of technological simulation of life. This paper is a preliminary, non-empirical and largely speculative or reflective engagement with three propositions about the relationship between AI textual affordances and the experience of saturation, meaning and death.

Published: June 2023

Safety and security became a crucial component of an integral tourist product. Ability to offer tourists a safe stay during their holiday contributes to the attractiveness of a destination and its tourist product. Safety and security represent a pre-condition and a motive which many tourists consider crucial when choosing their destination for a holiday. Due to this, tourist destinations need to focus on improving the level of safety and security which will contribute to the satisfaction of tourists, and they will be more interested in visiting and revisiting a destination. Aim of this paper is to determine whether tourists consider safety and riskiness, as well as destination image as relevant factors in their decision-making process when choosing Opatija Riviera for their holiday. An analysis of the relevant scientific literature, and empirical research were conducted to determine if how tourists perceive safety and riskiness as well as the destination image when choosing to visit Opatija Riviera for a holiday. Based on the findings a discussion was developed to provide future activities of safety and security improvement.
Application of the Polynomial Function in the Analysis of Statistical Indicators of Risk and Safety in Shipping
Authors: Bonato Jasminka , Draščić Ban Biserka
Published: June 2023

Navigation safety issues are of common interest to all maritime countries due to their actions in a complex and risky environment. The world’s most serious ship accidents can cause major economic losses, loss of life, and severe environmental pollution in the sea. The data included in trust and security databases are usually collected from different sources. The accuracy of the collected data may vary from source to source due to a greater number of external and internal factors such as different manufacturers, and working and environmental conditions. The quality of the data may vary due to the incompleteness of the details, subjectivity, and experience of the data collector. Databases on the frequency of failures, the estimation of which can be based on recorded failure events, are difficult to access. Therefore, the aim of the research, based on the available statistical indicators of maritime risks and safety, is to indicate the application of mathematical statistics, analysis and assessment of unwanted events. The statistical methods proposed in the paper aim to point out the importance of prediction and the possibility of improving safety. In this sense, the polynomial function was applied. To visualize the results obtained during the research, the Excel program is used.

Published: June 2023

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that leads to tremor, slowness, muscle stiffness, and other movement disorders. The benefits of exercise for reducing disability in people with PD are numerous. From the COVID-19 pandemic and the emergency measures of social distance, there is a need for systematized online programs of evaluation, monitoring and guidance for home exercises that consider the specificity of this population. A protocol for online evaluation and exercises prescription are discussed throughout this manuscript. Here, we specifically aim to describe the applicability of online assessment tests and measures and exercise prescription in people with PD and to propose training designs in two exercise modalities: 1) dance rhythms, and 2) specific training of locomotion and balance. These training models and assessment methods can assist trainers and therapists in organizing appropriate home-based exercise programs for people with PD who have difficulty participating in a face-to-face program and are essential steps toward a comprehensive and more detailed understanding of the training loads in motor disorders and disease states.
FCRL5 is a differentially expressed gene in brain metastatic human breast cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: July 2023

Metastasis to the brain occurs in a significant fraction of patients with breast cancer (1-3). We mined published RNA-sequencing and microarray data (4, 5) to compare primary and metastatic tumor transcriptomes for the discovery of genes associated with brain metastasis in humans with metastatic breast cancer. We found that Fc receptor-like 5, encoded by FCRL5, was among the genes whose expression was most different in the brain metastases of patients with metastatic breast cancer as compared to primary tumors of the breast. FCRL5 mRNA was present at decreased quantities in brain metastatic tissues as compared to primary tumors of the breast. Expression of FCRL5 in primary tumors was correlated with patient distant metastasis-free survival. Modulation of FCRL5 expression may be relevant to the biology by which tumor cells metastasize from the breast to the brain in humans with metastatic breast cancer.

Published: June 2023

To assist psychiatrists and clinical psychologists to assess their patients’ psychological immune competence–based capacities and resources, depending on the mental health disorder diagnosis and the severity of the symptoms, the present study examined the psychometric properties of the Mental Health Test in a psychiatric sample. The research was carried out in four Hungarian healthcare facilities using a cross-sectional design. A total of 331 patients (140 male, 188 female, and 3 who preferred not to disclose their gender) completed the Mental Health Test, six well-being and mental health measures, and the Symptom Checklist-90. Psychiatrists and clinical psychologists reported the mental disorder status of each participant. Confirmatory factor analysis showed a good fit of the five-factor model to the data for the clinical version of the Mental Health Test (CFI = 0.972, RMSEA = 0.034). High internal consistency coefficients (α: 0.70–0.84; ω: 0.71–0.85) and excellent external and content validity were reported. The test is not sensitive to sociodemographic indicators but is sensitive to the correlates of well-being and to the symptoms of different types of mental disorders. Our preliminary findings suggest that the Mental Health Test is a suitable measure for assessing mental health capacities and resources in psychiatric samples.

Nationally reported greenhouse gas inventories are a core component of the Paris Agreement transparency framework. Comparisons with emission estimates derived from atmospheric observations help identify improvements to reduce uncertainties and increase confidence in reported values. To facilitate comparisons over the contiguous United States, we present a 0.1°×0.1° gridded inventory of annual 2012-2018 anthropogenic methane emissions, allocated to 26 individual source categories, with scale-dependent error estimates. Our inventory is consistent with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks (GHGI), submitted to the United Nations in 2020. Total emissions and patterns (spatial/temporal) reflect the activity and emission factor data underlying the GHGI, including many updates relative to a previous gridded GHGI that has been extensively compared with observations. These underlying data are not generally available in global gridded inventories, and comparison to EDGAR v6 shows large spatial differences, particularly for the oil and gas sectors. We also find strong regional variability across all sources in annual 2012-2018 spatial trends, highlighting the importance of understanding regional and facility-level activities. Our inventory represents the first time series of gridded GHGI methane emissions and enables robust comparisons of emissions and their trends with atmospheric observations.
Sedimentology and sequence stratigraphy of shallow-marine, coarse-grained siliciclastic deposits in the southern Utsira High: the Late Jurassic intra-Draupne Formation sandstones in the Johan Sverdrup Field (Norwegian North Sea).
Authors: Puig Lopez Josep Maria , Poyatos-Moré Miquel , Howell John
Published: June 2023

Thin, condensed coarse-grained shallow-marine successions can be difficult to describe and interpret, especially in the subsurface because they commonly lack finer grained intervals which are typically associated with sequence stratigraphic surfaces. This lack of mudstones and siltstones means that they also typically make excellent reservoir intervals. The Oxfordian to Volgian intra-Draupne Formation sandstones in the Johan Sverdrup Field, southern Utsira High, represent such a system. This study presents a new, basinwide sequence stratigraphic model that unravels the detailed depositional history of the succession and places its formation within a regional Late Jurassic tectonostratigraphic framework. The succession is comprised of four parasequences deposited following a regional Kimmeridgian marine flooding event. Sediments were mainly supplied through Haugaland sourced fan deltas and longshore currents reworking the Avaldsnes High. The first parasequence shows a distinctive suite of facies consisting of fine-grained and mud-rich bioturbated sandstones deposited in a protected back-barrier lagoon. Subsequent parasequences lack fine grained sediments and are dominated by bidirectional cross stratified, coarse-to-very coarse sandstones and gravels deposited in a tidal strait. A progressive reduction of fault related subsidence in the Middle Volgian along with Late Volgian-Ryazanian sea level rise and inversion of pre-existing structures, promoted backstepping of the feeder systems, sediment starvation and the progressive deposition of the black and green-red shales of the Draupne and Asgard formations. This study accounts for features previously unidentified in the basin and which have implications for understanding the deposition of coarse-grained shallow marine successions around the Utsira High and other transgressed basement highs.

Published: July 2023

This study examines diphenhydramine (DPH) use by analyzing data from the r/DPH subreddit. The objective is to enhance understanding of DPH use patterns, provide insights for prevention and intervention, and raise awareness among clinicians. Analysis of the subreddit revealed 19,004 authors contributing 233,028 posts between 2014 and 2022, with users primarily from the United States and Europe. Qualitative analysis explored motivations, experiences, and consequences of DPH use. This study sheds light on the experiences of recreational DPH users, highlighting the need for improved identification and treatment strategies. By utilizing platforms like Reddit, a broader spectrum of DPH misuse is captured, including chronic and moderate misuse often overlooked by traditional assessments.
Conscientiousness does not moderate the association between political ideology and susceptibility to fake news sharing
Authors: Lin Hause , Rand David Gertler , Pennycook Gordon
Published: June 2023

Recent work suggests that personality moderates the relationship between political ideology and the sharing of misinformation. Specifically, Lawson and Kakkar (2021) claimed that fake news sharing was driven mostly by low conscientiousness conservatives. We re-analyzed their data and conducted five new preregistered conceptual replications to reexamine their claims (N = 2433; stopping rule determined via Bayesian sequential sampling). The results did not support their claim that conscientious conservatives shared less fake news; instead, their findings pertain to overall sharing rates (of both true and fake news), rather than specifically to fake news. That is, the association between conscientiousness and misinformation sharing (when it occurs) is explained by lower overall sharing instead of a particular resistance to fake news per se. Our results highlight the importance of distinguishing between overall sharing tendencies and the sharing of misinformation specifically, which have different theoretical and practical implications for how to combat the spread of misinformation.
Illuminating the daily life experiences of adolescents with and without ADHD: Protocol for an ecological momentary assessment study

Published: June 2023

IntroductionAdolescents with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are at elevated risk of a range of difficulties, among which emotion regulation, peer, and co-occurring mental health problems are prominent challenges. To better support adolescents with ADHD, ecologically valid interventions that can be embedded in daily life to target the most proximal antecedents of these challenges are needed. Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) designs are ideally suited to meeting this need. Methods and analysesIn the mental health in the moment ADHD (MHIM-ADHD) study, we will use an EMA design to capture the daily life experiences of approximately 120 adolescents aged 11-14 years with a clinical diagnosis of ADHD and the same number of age- and gender-matched peers without a diagnosis of ADHD. We will combine this with comprehensive information gathered from online surveys. Analysing the data using techniques such as dynamic structural equation modelling (DSEM), we will examine, among other research questions, the role of emotion regulation and peer problems in mediating the links between characteristics of ADHD and commonly co-occurring outcomes such as anxiety, depression, and conduct problems. The results can help inform interventions to support improved peer functioning and emotion regulation for adolescents with ADHD.
Beauty Builds Cooperation by Increasing Moral Concern for the Environment
Authors: Kirkland Kelly , van Lange Paul , Charalambous Noah , Strauss Calypso R , Bastian Brock
Published: June 2023

We aimed to investigate the role of moral value in influencing cooperative behaviour in environmental conservation. Our research involved two studies examining whether attributing moral value to non-sentient resources (the environment) impacts participants' resource preservation actions. Results revealed that associating an environmental consequence with resource consumption led to increased cooperative behaviour, driven by a desire to protect trees and nature's intrinsic value. Further, participants demonstrated higher conservation efforts when the environmental consequence was paired with a beautiful image of a tree. These findings suggest that the beauty of nature may be a significant driver of cooperation. The results of these studies shed light on the non-monetary value that people place on resources. Beauty and the inherent value of nature may be critical for our understanding of environmental conservation, emphasizing the potential of moral and aesthetic appreciation as key drivers of pro-environmental actions.

Published: June 2023

Background: Neuroscientific models of problematic aging emphasize that loss of sensorimotor stimulation and maladaptive plastic changes of the brain may play a major role in phenomena such as frailty. However, it is not clear if interventions specifically targeting neuroplasticity can reverse or slow the development of frailty.Objectives: In this study, we compared the effect of an experimental tablet-based neuroplasticity-oriented sensorimotor training (experimental group, EG) and a tablet-based relaxation control training (control group, CG) on frailty and sensorimotor brain function.Methods: Each intervention consisted of daily 30-minute sessions distributed over 90 days. Assessments took place at baseline, after 60 days, and after 90 days. A total of N=48 frail (assessed with the frailty phenotype) older adults (EG: n=24; CG: n=24) were randomly assigned to the two groups and reassessed after 60 days of training. Primary outcomes included frailty phenotype (FP) and frailty index (FI). Sensorimotor brain activity was evaluated using functional magnetic resonance imaging and single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation.Results: After 60 days of training, both groups showed a reduction in the number of FP criteria (p<0.001) with a trend towards a significant time-by-group interaction (p=0.058) indicating a stronger reduction of frailty in the EG (p<0.001) compared to the CG (p=0.039). In addition, pain was significantly reduced in the EG but not the CG. No significant training effects were found for measures of brain function.Discussion: We provided initial evidence that a neuroplasticity-oriented sensorimotor intervention approach could be beneficial in counteracting frailty as well as chronic pain. Further studies are needed to determine the potentially underlying neuroplastic mechanisms and the influence of plasticity-related biomarkers as well as their clinical significance.
Depression and Loneliness Attenuate the Benefits of Aha-Experiences
Authors: Fan Wei , Liang Geying , Li Jin , Zhong Yiping , Skaar Øystein Olav , Reber Rolf
Published: June 2023

Aha-experiences include fluent processing, positive affect and certainty that a solution is true. The current study (N = 1357; Chinese online sample) examined effects of loneliness and depression scores in a healthy sample on reporting an Aha-experience and on the phenomenology of Aha-experiences for those who had reported a specific experience (n = 283). The results of a mediation analysis for Aha-experiences was the same for Chinese respondents as it was in an earlier study with Norwegian and North American participants. Respondents who reported an Aha-experience were less lonely than participants who did not remember an Aha-experience but depression and loneliness were unrelated to self-reported frequencies of Aha-experiences. Among those respondents who reported an Aha-experience, both depression and loneliness correlated negatively with intensity of the experience, the strength of metacognitive feelings, and motivation and coping during and after but not before the Aha-experience. We conclude that lonely and depressive people may reap fewer experiential benefits from Aha-experiences.
Virtually (Mis)Matched: Evolved Human Minds Operating in the Digital Workplace
Authors: van vugt mark
Published: July 2023

This paper introduces the case for an evolutionary mismatch between the modern, digitalized workplace and the way human ancestors engaged in activities characterized as work. Psychological adaptations for producing things that early humans needed to survive -- such as cognitive mechanisms for obtaining and processing food and learning valuable skills -- evolved in the context of small networks of hunter-gatherers. These adaptations are central to understanding the significance of work in human evolution. Evolutionary mismatches operate when modern environments cue ancestral adaptations in a manner that no longer provides adaptive benefits. We argue that the digitalization of the workplace, although efficient and productive, is misaligned with some basic human needs and motivations, thereby illuminating a potential dark side. Yet digitalization also offers great opportunities for matching the work environment to our evolved psychology. We conclude with an agenda for advancing research on digitalization from an evolutionary psychology perspective.
The Emergency Remote Teaching Experience During the COVID-19 Pandemic: The Case of Arabian Gulf University
Authors: Alabbasi Ahmed M. Abdulla
Published: July 2023

This paper aimed to assess the adoption of Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT) in the Arabian Gulf University (AGU) and to reflect on the lessons learnt from such experience. Two questionnaires were developed and used to assess the ERT experience from both students’ and academic staff’s perspectives. Around 98% of the College of Graduate Studies (CGS) students and 96% of the academic staff participated in the study. The results indicated that Zoom and Moodle were the mostly-used platforms, while live lectures and PowerPoint presentations were mainly used as teaching methods. Moreover, the results showed that the overall satisfaction level with the ERT experience gradually increased for both students and academic staff, as it reached its maximal point at the end of the experience. However, there was no significant effect of gender and academic degree on the satisfaction level of the ERT. From this disruptive educational experience, it could be inferred that given the diversity of AGU students and the success of the ERT experience, remote teaching would be a good alternative to conventional teaching in emergency and non-emergency situations in the CGS at AGU. Nevertheless, developing specific rules and regulations for the implementation of a resilient blended teaching policy at AGU was recommended. This paper provides insights into the experience of applying ERT in a context where only degrees obtained through conventional teaching are accredited. It assesses this experience providing lessons learned, not only applicable to universities in the Gulf Cooperation Council countries, but also to universities where traditional teaching prevails.
Who gets left behind by left behind places?

We document that children growing up in places left behind by today’s economy experience lower levels of social mobility as adults. Using a longitudinal database that tracks over 20,000 places in the United States from 1980 to 2018, we identify two kinds of left behind places: the ‘long-term left behind’ that have struggled over long periods of history; and ‘recently left-behind’ places where conditions have deteriorated. Compared to children of similar baseline household income levels, we find that exposure to left behind places is associated with a 4-percentile reduction in adult income rank. Children fare considerably better when exposed to places where conditions are improving. These outcomes vary across prominent social and spatial categories, and are compounded when nearby places are also experiencing hardship. Based on these findings, we argue that left behind places are having “scarring effects” on children that could manifest long into the future, exacerbating the intergenerational challenges faced by low-income households and communities. Improvements in local economic conditions and outmigration to more prosperous places are, therefore, unlikely to be full remedies for the problems created by left behind places.

This final Inquiry report informs a strategy to facilitate circular economy housing: from construction, through operation to demolition. It draws on four coordinated research projects. The gravity and urgency of the climate emergency and the housing affordability crisis together warrant a significant, coordinated national effort to recalibrate the housing industry and ensure its sustainable future.A comprehensive CE strategy will:- lift sustainability as a priority- shift market processes- tilt incentives to attract the appropriate investment- build capacities towards circular and sustainable outcomes.An effective CE strategy must include a politically astute vision; robust legal footing; industry-relevant application; and be capable enforcement. Specialist in-depth investigation of Australian institutional settings, market processes and stakeholder capacities are now required to reflect and propose suitable instruments adapted to local conditions.The research makes five high-level recommendations to inform a CE housing strategy, including providing a picture of what needs to change and four recommendations showing how change might occur. Effective change requires measures that actively shift perceptions of value and priority-framing in decision-making to those that favour CE housing outcomes. Housing industry organisations cannot meet this challenge without purposeful public intervention and stakeholder cooperation. Regulation is essential to shape housing markets to reinforce CE approaches, from the micro level of building materials to construction and ongoing maintenance, to the macro level involving precinct-level spatial planning. Alongside legislative reform, clear targets and performance standards need to be enforced by monitoring, as well as being made accountable using reporting systems that sustain improving practice. These include energy efficiency and zero-waste policies; better regulations on material flows; upscaling technological improvements; and CE conditions in contractual arrangements.

Published: June 2023

Background: Marfan’s syndrome is known to be a rare, multisystem disorder of connective tissue typically affecting cardiac, skeletal and ocular system. The only definitive diagnosis is by gene testing for autosomal dominant mutation of FBN1 gene encoding the regulation of fibrillin 1 located on chromosome 15q.3. Ocular manifestations appear early in life with most of the abnormalities being sight threatening. These incude ectopia lentis, high myopia, rhegmatogenous retinal detachment , open angle glaucoma etc. Ophthalmological examination plays vital role in early diagnosis and visual preservation.
Case report: A 16 year old male presented with chief complaints of curtain like shadow in temporal visual field  with present glasses for past 7 days. He  had bilateral ectopia lentis with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment sparing the macula in the left eye. General examination of patient revealed physical features suggestive of Marfan’s syndrome. Although genetic testing was not possible, all features were suggestive of Marfan’s syndrome according to revised Ghent criteria. Pars plana vitrectomy with lens extraction with silicone oil injection was the treatment of choice. After an eventful post-operative period with silicone oil induced rise in intraocular pressure and 360 degrees peripheral anterior synechiae, early removal of silicone oil led to a good final visual outcome. Thus, with early detection and prompt treatment we were able to restore his visual quality of life.
Conclusion: Although serious and vision threatening manifestations may occur in the eye in cases of Marfan’s syndrome, early diagnosis and prompt treatment may be able to salvage vision. It is necessary to keep patients on regular follow up and inform them of possible vision threatening ocular manifestations in the eye for early diagnosis and prompt management.
Digital Access among Economics Students: In Terms of Material Access
Authors: Joshi Bishnu Maya
Published: June 2023

The internet and other digital technologies, which provide students access to a prosperity of knowledge and allow them to explore their interests and learn at their own pace, will enable them to do both. The teaching and learning process has grown more effective and meaningful due to ICT's ability to support self-paced learning through various instruments, including assignments, computers, and other devices. Examining the digital divide between economics class 12 students in public and private schools based on access is the main objective of this study. This study used a cross-sectional quantitative survey as its sole data collection method. The researcher used a simple random selection procedure to select 125 respondents from the population as a sample. This study found that private school students have better access than community schools in terms of material access to ICT in school. By giving ICT access in the classroom and persuading parents that it is a fundamental necessity, schools (public and private) can develop highly ICT smartness students in Nepalese.
