This paper examines the impact of adopting Basel III Liquidity Coverage Ratio, Stable Funding Ratio, and Leverage Ratio on lending in the Malawian banking sector. Malawi’s banking industry regulators are planning to transition to Basel III from the current Basel II regime. This paper pioneers an assessment of the implications of this move for the banking industry. The study uses monthly data for the period January 2010 to December 2022, the Feasible Generalised Least Square (FGLS) Panel Regression model with bank-specific variables (X) and macroeconomic controls (Z). The study finds that Tier 1 has a positive and significant impact on Malawi’s banking sector lending growth, while Tier 2 has a negative and insignificant impact on banking sector-wide lending growth effects. The non-risk weighted asset Basel III leverage ratios have significant and negative impacts on Malawi’s bank sector lending growth. And that the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) had a positive and significant effect in explaining variability in lending in Malawi banking overall, while the introduction of the stable funding ratio (SFR) had a positive and significant impact on banking sector-wide lending growth effects. The study also found that the Basel III Capital and Liquidity Rules have different effects on firm-level lending for the 8 banks in Malawi.

Most women will experience a normal pregnancy process. However, there are some complications that may occur during the pregnancy. Pregnancy outside of the uterus is also known as intra-abdominal pregnancy. Intra-abdominal pregnancy is among the complications during pregnancy that are commonly reported besides abortion, Pregnancy Induced Hypertension (PIH) and Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM). These complications are believed to be the main cause of the increase in maternal and perinatal death rate. Therefore, the used of appropriate diagnostic imaging in management of obstetric cases should be focused. Thus this case study is intended to evaluate the used of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in managing intra-abdominal pregnancy. The study focused on one case of abdominal pregnancy which continued into the second trimester. A 30-year-old woman, G2 P0+1 at 12-13 weeks’ gestation presented to public hospital complaining of recurrence epigastric pain with no history of vaginal bleeding. An MRI was performed and the mother was identified as having an intra-abdominal pregnancy. Urgent laparotomy done. Intraoperative noted heamoperitoneum with active bleed seen from the placenta that adhere to the omentum. Partial omentectomy was done. The fetus about 14 week’s gestation are seen and removed. Case studies have proven that the option to perform an MRI on a suspected intra-abdominal pregnancy can help provide information to establish an accurate diagnosis and appropriate patient care management. Therefore, the use of MRI is highly recommended for all cases that are expected to experience intra-abdominal pregnancy as to save the patient and as well as to avoid obstetric complications.

Tempat ibadah merupakan suatu tempat bertemunya para umat beragama untuk beribadah menurut ajaran agama atau kepercayaan mereka masing-masing. Tempat peribadatan setiap harinya atau waktu tertentu selalu banyak dikunjungi oleh umatnya. Kabupaten Timor Tengah Utara (TTU) adalah sebuah kabupaten yang terletak di provinsi Nusa Tenggara Timur, Indonesia. Ibu kota kabupaten berada di Kota Kefamenanu. Dalam menginformasikan sarana tempat ibadah di Kabupaten Timor Tengah Utara masih menggunakan cara tradisional yaitu dari mulut ke mulut, sehingga masyarakat kesulitan mencari informasi mengenai sarana tempat ibadah. Akan tetapi, informasi yang diberikan hanya sebatas lokasi tanpa informasi tambahan seperti waktu pelaksanaan ibadah. Hal seperti inilah yang menjadi kendala bagi masyarakat lokal maupun para wisatawan karena mereka harus meluangkan waktu untuk mengetahui informasi tempat ibadah yang diberikan oleh tempat ibadah tersebut. Dengan melihat kondisi tersebut, maka diperlukan sebuah Sistem Informasi Geografis yang dimana didalamnya pengguna dapat mengetahui lokasi tempat ibadah yang terdekat maupun yang sedang pengguna cari. Maka untuk memberikan informasi tempat ibadah kepada wisatawan maupun masyrakat lokal di Kabupaten Timor Tengah Utara, dilakuka sebuah penelitian dengan judul “Sistem Informasi Geografis Pemetaan Lokasi Tempat Ibadah Di Kabupaten Timor Tengah Utara Berbasi Web Menggunakan Metode Extreme Programming.

Published: March 2024

Interprofessional Education (IPE) prepares students in the healthcare field for collaborative practices. Faculty perceptions of IPE have been investigated among several health professions. We assess athletic training (AT) faculty perceptions of the importance of the four IPE competencies, their attitudes towards IPE, their attitudes and beliefs about IPE in the academic settings, their perceived barriers, and opportunities towards implementing IPE in AT curricula; and how these have changed. This study utilized a cross-sectional online survey administered anonymously in 2017 and 2022. The study population was faculty from accredited AT education programs in the USA identified through the National Athletic Trainers’ Association (NATA). We find that in the last five years, faculty perception of IPE has shifted to a more positive attitude toward understanding and implementing IPE in AT programs. However, data showed no significant differences between the initial and follow-up studies. Values and ethics and teams and teamwork were the two competencies ranked the highest in both studies. Younger respondents ranked communication higher than older respondents. Barriers to IPE implementation included lack of resources, allocated funding, and institutional support. The creation of an IPE program coordinator was one of the opportunities highlighted. Faculty of AT programs are aware of the importance of IPE and demonstrated a general positive attitude toward implementing IPE in their AT curricula. However, several barriers have been identified, including a perceived negative attitudes toward AT from other health professions.
The Direct Method in English Language Instruction for Primary School Students in Santarém-PA: An Experience of TESOL Undergraduates
Authors: Silva Alessandro Ripardo da , Hitotuzi Nilton , Barbosa Naelson Sarmento
Published: March 2024

The Direct Method, a pedagogical approach for teaching additional languages through immersion, emphasizes oral interaction and everyday language usage to facilitate language acquisition. This method discourages reliance on translation and minimizes emphasis on grammatical rules. However, a fundamental question arises about the effectiveness of TESOL programmes in non-English dominant countries in equipping prospective teachers to adopt a monolingual approach. This paper explores the results of a case study aimed at understanding the experiences of two TESOL degree candidates from a university in Northern Brazil. They participated in an outreach project employing the Direct Method to teach English to Year 1 students on the outskirts of Santarém-PA. Data, gathered through proficiency assessments, interviews, and video recordings, were analysed using Content Analysis and video analysis principles in qualitative research. The results revealed challenges faced by the participants due to limited pedagogical knowledge but also unveiled adaptive strategies, collaborative work practices, introspection, and an acknowledgment of the importance of integrating elements from students’ physical and social contexts into lessons. Despite challenges, the study underscores the beneficial potential and viability of the Direct Method in non-English dominant contexts, advocating for its critical consideration and adaptation within TESOL programmes.

Authors: Roychan Wahidur , Susanto  , Taufikur Rohman
Published: March 2024

Penegakan hukum dalam sistem peradilan pidana yang cenderung offender oriented, yaitu terlalu mengedepankan hak-hak tersangka atau terdakwa, padahal korban kejahatan merupakan pihak yang paling menderita dalam suatu tindak pidana, justru tidak memperoleh perlindungan. Korban tidak diberikan kewenangan dan tidak terlibat secara aktif dalam proses penyidikan dan persidangan sehingga ia kehilangan kesempatan untuk memperjuangkan hak-hak dan memulihkan keadaannya akibat suatu kejahatan. Solusi yang ditawarkan yaitu penyelesaian perkara pidana yang berorientasi terhadap korban melalui pendekatan keadilan restoratif (restorative justice) yang menitikberatkan pada kondisi terciptanya keadilan dan keseimbangan bagi korban dan pelaku. Namun aturan dan kebijakan dalam penerapan keadilan restoratif, terdapat perbedaan dan ketidaksamaan dalam penerapannya baik di Kepolisian pada tahap penyidikan, Kejaksaan di tahap penuntutan serta di Mahkamah Agung pada tingkat peradilan. Penelitian ini berusaha mengkaji tentang reformulasi pengaturan restoratif justice  dalam sistem peradilan pidana di Indonesia, penelitian ini merupakan  jenis penelitian normatif dengan menggunakan pendekatan perundang-undangan dan pendekatan konsep. Sedangkan metode analisis yang digunakan adalah metode silogisme deduktif, yaitu penarikan kesimpulan dari suatu hal yang umum ke suatu hal yang khusus.

Authors: Wahyuono Bambang , Wahyu Tris Haryadi
Published: March 2024

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui status hukum jaminan Hak Guna Bangunan yang masa berlakunya telah berakhir ketika  masih terikat dengan perjanjian kredit masih berjalan dan upaya yang dapat dilakukan oleh bank sebagai kreditur ketika jangka waktu hak guna bangunan yang dijadikan objek jaminan telah berakhir sedangkan perjanjian kreditnya masih berjalan. Dalam penelitian ini penulis menggunakan metode penelitian yuridis normatif dengan melakukan pendekatan perundang-undangan, dan pendekatan konseptual. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Status Hukum dari Hak Tanggungan batal apabila hak atas tanah yang dibebani oleh Hak Tanggungan itu hapus juga. Hal ini karena hak tanggungan adalah hak kebendaan, dan apabila obyek hak kebendaan itu hilang, maka jaminan atas hak itu hilang. Untuk upaya yang dapat dilakukan oleh bank sebagai kreditur apabila terdapat Objek Hak Guna Bangunan yang masa berlakunya habis saat masih dijaminan, yakni dengan upaya preventif dan upaya represif. Dalam upaya preventif dengan cara menambahkan klausul dalam Akta Pemberian Hak Tanggungan yang menyatakan bahwa pemegang hak tanggungan dalam hal ini bank dapat melakukan penyelamatan terhadap objek hak tanggungan. Sedangkan dalam upaya represif, pihak kreditur bank dapat mengajukan gugatan wanprestasi terhadap debitur apabila debitur lalai dalam membayar utang yang dimilikinya.

Един урок за приложение на скаларното произведение
Authors: Цветкова Даниела
Published: March 2024

В обучението си по математика учениците се срещат за пръв път с вектори в 8. клас. Там те се запознават с понятието вектор – насочена отсечка, изучават колинеарни и неколинеарни вектори, еднопосочни и противопосочни, равенство на вектори, противоположни вектори и нулевия вектор. Въвеждат се афинните операции с вектори – събиране, изваждане и умножение на вектор с число.

По новата програма за профилирана подготовка по математика в 11. клас се въвеждат понятието скаларно произведение на два вектора и операции на вектори с координати в правоъгълна декартова координатна система. Знанията на учениците при задачи, свързани с вектори, се засилват. Те вече могат да събират, умножават, намират дължина на вектори, които са зададени с координати. Представя им се приложението на вектори в аналитичната геометрия, при решаване на задачи с многоъгълници и стереометрични задачи. Знаем, че приложението на векторния апарат е огромно, затова ние представяме решаване на задачи от алгебра и анализ чрез използването на вече познатите операции с вектори.

This paper explores fundamental concepts, challenges, and impacts of data quality on business operations. It emphasizes the critical role of robust Data Quality Mechanisms in ensuring the accuracy, completeness, and reliability of data within the Data Warehousing ecosystem. As organizations increasingly recognize data as a strategic asset, it is imperative to implement eﬀective data quality mechanisms to unlock the true potential of data warehouses and derive actionable insights.
Simulation study on the offspring mean estimators in discrete time branching processes with migration
Authors: Zlatkova Tsvetomira A. , Stoimenova Vessela K.
Published: March 2024

In the present work we consider two widely used deﬁnitions of a branching process with migration, related to the controlled branching processes framework, classical and multiple. We simulate the two processes with equal oﬀspring and migration characteristics and estimate the oﬀspring mean via the weighted conditional least squares estimators based on two sampling schemes – on the generation sizes only and the generation sizes and the migration components. We propose a robust modiﬁcation of the second estimator in the case when several trajectories of the process are observed.

In the current article, we present diﬀerent solutions to one problem, depending on the age and knowledge required to solve the problem. We’ll start with two familiar problems. Then we’ll generalize and we’ll prove a lemma. In the last part we’ll present diﬀerent problems and their solutions that were born from the ﬁrst two problems and the lemma.

O aproveitamento de bezerros leiteiros para produção de carne, torna-se um subsídio para que a cadeia produtiva de propriedades rurais alcance resultados econômicos satisfatórios e sustentabilidade do empreendimento rural. Objetivou-se avaliar o desempenho e qualidade de carcaça e carne de bezerros de origem leiteira confinados. O experimento foi desenvolvido na Fazenda Quadalajara, município de Turvânia, Goiás. Utilizou-se 16 bezerros machos da própria propriedade, em confinamento, onde todos os animais receberam a mesma dieta. Foi avaliado o desempenho dos animais durante o período de confinamento, e posteriormente abatidos, em sequência, realizou-se as avaliações de carcaça, com objetivo, a tipificação e determinação da qualidade da carne. Os animais obtiveram ganho de peso médio de 0,920 kg por dia, abatidos com 320,4 ± 45,87 kg de peso vivo, com rendimento de carcaça de 50%. O comprimento de carcaça foi de 119,15 ± 3,98 cm, circunferência de perna 77,07 ± 10,50 cm, circunferência braço 35,92 ± 1,98 cm. As carcaças foram tipificadas como côncavas, devido ao grupo genético dos animais, e para o método CIELab, os valores foram: L* 34,36; a* 15,22 e b* 5,12; apresentando valores satisfatórios para o método. Pelos resultados encontrados, pode-se observar, que os bezerros de origem leiteira apresentaram bons resultados de desempenho, e razoáveis resultados de qualidade de carcaça e carne. Os bezerros machos nascidos em propriedades leiteiras podem ser aproveitados para produção de carne, sendo uma fonte de renda extra, ou complemento para as despesas de um estabelecimento rural.
A study on the competence of middle school mathematics teachers in Hebei province under the background of craftsmanship spirit
Authors: Liu Xuhao , Wang Jiali
Published: March 2024

Purpose: Excellent education is only possible with teachers who possess exceptional skills. This study is based on the competency characteristics of middle school mathematics teachers, constructs a teacher competency model that integrates the spirit of craftsmanship and identifies the professional qualities, motivations and attitudes that outstanding mathematics teachers possess.

Design/Methodology/Approach: This study collected information and interview data from 12 experts through in-depth interviews and then encoded and summarized the themes through theme analysis to construct a competency system for high school mathematics teachers in Hebei Province. Thirty experts were given questionnaires to complete. The competency model was then validated and revised using the fuzzy Delphi method (FDM) and the relative importance of each indication was examined using the analytical hierarchy process (AHP). 

Findings: The fuzzy Delphi questionnaire shows that the expert consensus meets the requirements of the verification value while the analytic hierarchy process questionnaire shows that the expert opinions have passed the consistency test.

Conclusion: This study integrates the spirit of craftsmanship with the competency characteristics of middle school mathematics teachers and constructs a teacher competency model. The constructed model was subjected to fuzzy Delphi validation and analytic hierarchy process weight analysis by distributing questionnaires. The conclusion verifies the reliability and validity of the established model.

Contribution to the Literature: This study introduces the spirit of craftsmanship into the teacher competency model enriching the connotation and extension of teacher competency research. Interpreting teacher competency with craftsmanship traits can make the competency characteristics of teachers more concrete.

Purpose: The study assessed the existence and implementation of the internal control system mechanisms of three purposively selected state governments in southwestern Nigeria.

Design/Methodology/Approach: The study adopted a descriptive survey research design. Primary data were obtained through a structured questionnaire administered to 450 staff members of both the Accountant General and Auditor General of the three southwestern states which include Lagos, Oyo and Ondo states. The Committee of Sponsoring Organizations Treadway Commission (COSO) framework is used to assess the existence and extent of implementation of internal control system mechanisms in the states. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data obtained.

Findings: The results showed that control environment (36.6%), risk assessment (42.7%), control activities (37.9%) and information and communication (39%) were moderately in existence but not fully implemented because the percentage fell below average while monitoring (38.7%) was highly implemented among the selected state governments in southwestern Nigeria.

Conclusion: The study found that state governments have internal control systems in place but they are not completely operational. Hence, mitigants against financial fraud, errors and misapplication of public funds are weak.

Research Limitations and Implementation:  The sample of the study could be expanded to include more states in other geopolitical zones of the country.

Practical Implications: The study proposed strict adherence to all the elements and contents of the COSO framework in the design, set up and implementation of internal control mechanisms in public sector entities.

Published: March 2024

INTRODUCTION: The risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is well recognized, but data from a new study published in Circulation now indicate that AF is also associated with an increased risk of extracranial systemic embolic events, and that these thromboembolic events confer high morbidity and mortality.

AIM & OBJECTIVE: To determine the frequency of systemic embolic events in patients presenting with atrial fibrillation

MATERIAL & METHODS: It was a cross sectional study conducted at Cardiology Ward, Punjab Institute of Cardiology, Lahore for the period of six months i.e. from 1st December 2016 to 31st May 2017. Total 241 patients who will fulfil the selection criteria were enrolled in the study from emergency of PIC, Lahore. Informed consent was obtained from all patients. Their demographic information was also noted. Then patients had undergone venogram for assessment of presence or absence of embolism. All venogram were done by single senior radiologist having at least 4 years’ experience. Reports were assessed and systemic embolism was noted. All this information was recorded on proforma. Patients diagnosed with embolism were managed as per hospital protocol.

RESULTS: In this study systemic embolism events were diagnosed in 101(41.91%) patients who presented with AF. These systemic embolism events did not show any statistically significant association with age, gender (male patients with higher frequency for systemic embolism events p-value=0.566), duration of AF (frequency of systemic embolism events was higher in patients with longer duration of AF p-value=0.254) and diabetic history (frequency of systemic embolism events was higher in patients without diabetes, p-value=0.892)

CONCLUSION: Results of this study demonstrated a high frequency of systemic embolism in patients presenting with AF. In routine practice systemic embolism often remain unfocused. So it is strongly suggested that as this condition have a potential impact on high morbidity, mortality, and financial healthcare so it should be managed as aggressively as stroke.

Authors: Rani Attia , Fatima Rubab Fatima , Amjad Nida Amjad
Published: March 2024

Background: Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a significant preventable risk factor for early mortality worldwide. It disrupts the normal mechanisms that regulate arterial pressure. This study aims to assess the knowledge of senior staff nurses regarding hypertension and associated risk factors, irrespective of their personal diagnosis of hypertension. The objective is to enhance primary and secondary prevention and control programs for cardiovascular diseases.

Materials and Methods: A structured questionnaire comprising closed-ended questions with yes/no responses was administered to 141 nurses. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS version 26, with statistical significance set at p<0.05.

Results: The study population had a mean age of 40.014 ± 11.34 years, with 100% female participants. The majority of nurses (87.2%) had received training in hypertension management. Based on their responses, 87.2% of the nurses demonstrated accurate knowledge about hypertension.

Conclusion: It is imperative to address the presence of misinformation among nursing staff in cardiology hospitals in Pakistan. Increasing awareness about hypertension can contribute to improved patient management and enhance nursing care and services.

Konflik dalam Otonomi Daerah dan Dampaknya terhadap Penyelenggaraan Pemerintahan
Authors: Irtanto
Published: March 2024

Otonomi daerah sebagai perwujudan desentralisasi membawa konsekuensi konflik vertikal maupun konflik horizontal berdampak terhadap lambatnya pembagunan daerah, konektivitas antarwilayah, pelayanan publik dan menurunnya kepercayaan rakyat. Konflik vertikal disebabkan masing-masing pihak tidak memahami posisinya dan tidak efektifnya kewenangan konskuren yang diberikan kepada pemerintah provinsi maupun daerah otonom, perebutan kewenangan dalam memperebutkan sumber-sumber ekonomi lintas batas. Sedangkan konflik horizontal elite politik daerah baik formal maupun informal tidak memahami posisinya, lebih menonjolkan etnosentrisme, egoisme, perebutan kekuasaan, ketamakan dan keserakahan terhadap kekuasaan dan materi tanpa melihat kepentingan yang lebih luas. Dalam kerangka resolusi konflik vertikal maupun horizontal diperlukan intervensi dalam bentuk regulasi dan kelembagaan agar pihak-pihak berkonlik bekerja sama, berinteraksi dan berkomunikasi dengan prinsip kemitraan dan keseimbangan.
