Published: September 2024

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is one of the major causes of chronic liver disease and its prevalence is increasing worldwide. There are many extra hepatic manifestations of Hepatitis C infection including B –cell lymphoproliferative disorders. Mixed cryoglobulinemia (MC) is the most common prototype of B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders. Cryoglobulinemia is an immune complex mediated disease causing multi organ damage with vasculitis being the primary manifestation. We report a case of 50 years old Asian lady having clinically silent chronic liver disease secondary to hepatitis C who presented to us with a purpuric skin rash, joint pains and fatigue. She was confirmed to be a case of mixed cryoglobulinemia. Patient was prescribed direct antiviral agents and prednisolone which improved her condition to a great extent. Heightened awareness of cutaneous manifestations of MC associated with HCV might improve the detection rate of clinically silent HCV infection.

Authors: Martins da Silva Brenda , Eduarda de Almeida Marina , Camila Alves Quadros Jéssica , Martins Franco Caroline , Rabelo Nicollas  Nunes
Published: September 2024

Introduction: Craniosynostosis represents a rare congenital condition characterized by the premature fusion of one or more cranial sutures. The majority of cases of this disorder are non-syndromic in nature.
Objective: This study aims to conduct an analysis and comparison of available surgical techniques, evaluating their respective postoperative outcomes in the treatment of non-syndromic craniosynostosis. The focus lies on assessing functional, aesthetic, and neurological outcomes.
Methods: A systematic review was undertaken, encompassing the search for clinical trials (including randomized trials), systematic reviews, and meta-analyses available online in both Portuguese and English languages. The search terms "prognosis" and "non-syndromic craniosynostosis" were utilized along with the boolean operator "AND". Articles published between 2018 and 2023 were filtered through the Virtual Health Library (VHL) and PubMed platforms, specifically targeting studies presenting prognostic data related to craniosynostosis in pediatric patients up to 12 months of age.
Results: The most favorable prognostic outcomes identified in this investigation were associated with conventional cranioplasty and minimally invasive endoscopic craniectomy techniques. Notably, conventional cranioplasty demonstrated superior intellectual outcomes among patients undergoing this procedure, with an average intelligence quotient of 111.7 ± 13 and academic performance aligning closely with national averages across various domains. Conversely, minimally invasive endoscopic craniectomy exhibited low rates of blood transfusion, complications, and reoperations.
Conclusion: The findings underscore the superior cognitive prognosis associated with conventional cranioplasty, positioning it as a highly applicable surgical option for addressing craniosynostosis, supported by robust evidence.
Artificial intelligence caters to banks and customer needs
Authors: Bansal Prashant
Published: September 2024

Banking customers do not think, speak, text, or communicate as financial institutions do. For humans, banking is as simple as “check balance,” “transfer,” “credit card payment,” and we prefer to talk in that language. When users contact a customer service representative, they want accurate answers without spending too much time over the phone or email. However, during these “new normal” times, the waiting time to reach a customer service rep has tremendously increased. Human agents cannot scale up with the ever-increasing demand to resolve customers’ queries. More often than not, agents feel burned out as they do not have enough tools at their disposal for delivering fast response time. With conversational artificial intelligence (AI) kicking in, the technology uses machine learning (ML) and natural language processing (NLP) to create a better customer experience. With the right set of programs and rules written, AI/ML tools can do much more than chatting and providing basic information to customers. For example, you could also update your contact and residential address, check your credit card balance, activate your card, etc. Chatbots are no longer “bots” just with pre defined answers to limited questions fed into them, with conversational AI and NLP- they are at par with human like responses and answer as accurately as a human would do. The businesses which are time zone independent find them more helpful.
A model proposal to provide services to the relatives of martyrs, war and duty disabled people and their relatives with a rights-based approach
Authors: Işıktaş İsmail
Published: September 2024

In case the armed forces personnel, who constitute the workforce of the country's defense, lose their lives or become disabled, they are given certain social rights and are allowed to benefit from various exemptions. Calling the services provided to war and duty disabled people and their families as aid is perceived as a favor given by the state to its citizens. All activities carried out in this context should be evaluated as social policies implemented to ensure social state principles and social justice, and should be perceived as the obligation of the state to its citizens as a rights-based approach as a part of social security. In the study, the services provided for beneficiaries in disadvantaged groups were included in 46 articles with subheadings, but only six articles of these rights enabled the beneficiaries to benefit from the services within the scope of social security without requiring any application to benefit from the rights. However, in order for the beneficiaries of the other 40 articles to benefit from the rights to be provided to war and duty disabled people and their families, it is possible for the applicant to benefit from the rights if he/she makes an individual application by preparing the information and documents under each heading. In the study, which was carried out using the qualitative research method and the interview method, when the data obtained with the RQDA (R package for Qualitative Data Analysis-R i386 3.5.2) program was analyzed, the root causes of not being able to benefit from the rights provided were the insufficient knowledge of the rights holders and the personnel who ensured that the rights holders were informed. has been reached. The fact that the rights provided to the right holders are based on application due to inadequate knowledge of the right holders, insufficient financial situation, low level of education, encountering humiliating situations, social exclusion of individuals and social pressures (neighborhood pressure) causes grievances to occur. In order to solve the problem, along with the process improvement and development activity to be carried out in the e-Government Gateway system, which is the largest integrated system in Turkey, a model proposal has been put forward that will transform the process of benefiting the rights provided to them from an application-based structure to a central power of attorney system structure. suggestions have been made.

Published: September 2024

Waste is an environmental problem that is increasing along with population growth and public consumption. To solve this problem, an automatic device that controls the opening and closing of the trash can without direct touch is developed using an Arduino Nano microcontroller, HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor, VL53L0X LIDAR, and MG996R servo motor. This research aims to evaluate the responsiveness of the sensor in detecting objects, the effect of the interaction of distance, angle, and object thickness on the sensor response time and aims to determine the effect of garbage volume on the response time of the indicator LED light. The test was conducted using the experimental method of distance variation of 20 cm, 30 cm, 40 cm, and 50 cm; angle variation of 0°, 10°, and 20°; and thickness variation of 10 mm, 65 mm, and 120 mm. Data analysis using multiple linear regression research methods shows a P-Value of 0.409 for the ultrasonic sensor with ɑ of 0.05, if the P-Value > ɑ, then H0 is accepted and H1 is rejected which mean that there is no significant effect of the interaction between distance, angle, and thickness of the object on the response time of the trash can lid opening sensor.

BUMDes is a village government-owned business institution established in an effort to strengthen the village economy, based on the needs and potential of the village concerned. In its operations, BUMDes can have various business units with autonomous management in one business entity. Each business unit makes its own financial report according to the type of business it runs. The resulting financial report will be submitted to the head office for merger and consolidation. Although each business unit has a different type of business, the process and provisions for preparing financial reports in each business unit are the same, because they are regulated in government regulations. The only differences are related to operational reporting and components/account names in the financial report. To improve the ease of preparation and accountability of its financial reports, the existence of an integrated accounting information system is a must. As an initial step, a design process is carried out which will be used as the basis or technical reference for the development process. The design process is carried out with an object-oriented approach, with the results in the form of classes/components and interactions between them which are the foundation of the system building. This will facilitate the development process and this integrated system can then be built/developed in stages according to the development/addition of business units from BUMDes.

Children have the right to life, survival and development but also a right to be protected from any form of abuse, particularly in schools. Therefore, the standards for child protection in schools should be guided by the principles that prioritize the safety, well-being and rights of children. These principles form the basis of child protection safeguarding policies in schools and are paramount in ensuring a safe and secure learning environment for children. Yet the spate of child protection issues in Nigeria raises questions regarding the existence, implementation and enforcement of the pieces of legislation and policies within schools. This work not only examined the legal framework for child protection in Nigeria but also the legal implications of child safeguarding policies in schools. It argues that in order for schools to create a secure and safe environment for learning, firstly, the establishment of child safeguarding policies and procedure are critical to achieving this. Secondly, schools need to abandon the old concept of punishment-based discipline that relies on fear and embrace a more modern correction-based approach to discipline and establish structures to leverage discipline to achieve a safe and secure environment for all. It concludes that safeguarding policies should be viewed as a school’s translation of child protection legislation for action and as such, its implementation manual. In drawing lessons from the UK, the study recommended that government needs to drive child protection issues through the education of stakeholders and the establishment of an enforcement mechanism or regulatory body. This body should coordinate child safeguarding issues by providing a platform for stakeholder collaboration in order to achieve more cohesion within the sector.

Published: September 2024

One innovation brought about by fintech is peer-to-peer lending. However, in recent years with rapid growth, unfortunately, there are still many negative sentiments about the peer-to-peer lending industry. Especially with the advancement of technology and the internet, all information about peer-to-peer lending is easily accessible through social media. The amount of negative information about peer-to-peer lending can influence opinions or sentiments towards the performance of peer-to-peer lending platforms and invite the public to comment on social media. Additionally, the gender factor of the information provider also affects the performance of the peer-to-peer market. Based on the explanation above, there has never been any previous research conducted in Indonesia, so this study will examine how the influence of social media information sentiment and the gender factor of the information provider affects peer-to-peer lending performance. The analysis method used is logistic regression, and the data used is obtained through machine learning using the Python programming language on Google Collab from social media opinions and the gender that provides opinions on social media. Meanwhile, the financial performance of peer-to-peer lending is taken from the annual performance report of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) by default. From the results of this study, it was found that the gender of the information provider affects the financial performance of peer-to-peer lending. However, simultaneously, social media sentiment and the gender of the information provider affect the financial performance of peer-to-peer lending.

The legal policy on tourism in Bali is fundamentally planned from a legal aspect as cultural tourism. The underlying thought is that Bali's legal politics of tourism is built on the values of Hindu religion, customs, local wisdom, and upholding the philosophy of Tri Hita Karana. Bali is culturally, religiously, naturally, and humanly unique, with the foundation of its social-religious organization being the customary village (desa adat). Based on this central idea, the legal issues explored are: (1) How is the construction of legal politics in public policy for tourism development (especially in Tourism Villages) in Bali? (2) What are the legal implications for the tourism villages developed in relation to community welfare? The socio-legal research method is interdisciplinary and "hybrid," which will explain the relationship between law and society in shaping public policy related to tourism villages. The research findings indicate that the legal construction in public policy for the development of tourism villages in Bali is built on a concept of law that is culturally meaningful. On one hand, it is constructed based on state law, and on the other hand, it can be managed by Bali's customary law, such as awig-awig, pararem, and customary village regulations (Peraturan Desa adat). The legal implications for customary villages managing tourism villages in Bali are ambiguous in legal choices, particularly in implementation within customary village areas. However, regardless of the legal choice by the customary villages in Bali, the legal goals of utility, certainty, and justice can serve as benchmarks for forming a law that brings happiness.

Published: September 2024

The beginning of the 21st century seems to signal the need for adjustments and changes in all areas. The same is true in the world of education. The requirements of rapid development of information technology require practical and effective solutions to ensure that all aspects of educational activities do not go off course and are on the right track. One of the possibilities is using information and communication technologies in the teaching and learning process. Teachers must not only have technical competency but also master information and communication technology and be able to incorporate it into their lessons. We have recently begun to recognize these skills as digital teaching skills. Simply put, it is the way teachers use information and communication technology to teach. However, not all teachers in this field have acquired this digital teaching competency. Indonesia's education community continues to implement this competency thoroughly and optimally. The method used in this study is a qualitative approach using interviews, observations, and document analysis as data collection techniques. This study aims to investigate the extent to which this digital pedagogical competency is put into practice. Research results show that teachers' implementation of digital teaching skills is successful. However, they still face obstacles due to paradigms and lack of motivation for teacher skill development. School leaders, teachers, communities, and parents must therefore play an active role in building this capacity to maximize the quality of education in schools.

Parental support and guidance from career counselors significantly affect students in choosing careers that align with their interests and abilities. Career programs, including workshops, industrial visits, and individual counseling, were successfully implemented, although some challenges remain in the evaluation process, particularly regarding students' anxiety in career decision-making. This research contributes to the development of more effective career services in schools and serves as a reference for other institutions seeking to improve their career services to better meet students’ needs.

Introdução: Cistos de ossos temporais são raros tumores benignos da região da cabeça e pescoço, sendo os que acometem a tuba auditiva (TA) ainda mais incomuns. Eles podem ser identificados pela tomografia computadorizada (TC) e pela ressonância magnética (RM). Podem apresentar-se como lesão com intensidade de tecido adiposo, homogênea, circunscrita, ocupando e expandindo a região da TA. Objetivo: Apresentar caso clínico de paciente com cisto em tuba auditiva. Caso Resumido: Paciente de 83 anos, masculino, com queixas de disfagia e roncos com pausas respiratórias. Ao exame de endoscopia nasal, evidenciada uma massa pulsátil em rinofaringe à esquerda. RM mostrou lesão sugestiva de cisto não seroso de TA à esquerda. Optado por conduta expectante devido ao risco cirúrgico e condição pouco sintomática do paciente. Conclusão: Tumores primários de TA manifestam-se de várias formas, por condições benignas ou malignas, até mesmo de maneira assintomática, podendo se apresentar como achados incidentais de exames, sendo sempre necessário estar atento para seus diagnósticos diferenciais, promovendo sua correta investigação e visando seu tratamento, com a melhor definição da abordagem cirúrgica, se necessário.
Evapotranspiration is the Only Relevant Source of Moisture at the Onset of the Rainy Season in South America

Published: September 2024

The South American Monsoon System, which transports moisture from Amazonia to Central-West Brazil, is an important moisture source for the summer rainy season in this region. While local evapotranspiration also contributes to the atmospheric moisture supply, the balance between local and remote sources during the onset of the rainy season remains uncertain. This research aimed to quantify the role of local evapotranspiration in initiating the rainy season in Central-West Brazil. By utilizing data from various sources, such as remote sensing (MODIS), modern reanalysis (ECMWF’s ERA5), and composite products of rainfall (CHIRPS), and analyzing them in a comparative way, we conclusively found that local evapotranspiration is the only relevant source of moisture to the atmosphere during the dry-to-wet season transition, preceding the establishment of the monsoon system. Keywords: evapotranspiration; monsoon onset; MODIS; ERA5; CHIRPS

Does the Quality of ICT have an Effect on Tax Revenue Collection in Africa?
Authors: Woenagnon Katamantou
Published: September 2024

This article examines the effect of the quality of information and communication technologies (ICT) on tax revenue collection in Africa. Starting with a sample of 48 countries, observed over the period 1986 – 2017, we use a cointegration model in panel data using fully modified ordinary least squares (FMOLS) technique for the basic analysis. To check robustness, we use dynamic ordinary least squares (DOLS) and canonical cointegration regression (CCR). The results show that the quality of ICT measured in terms of its bandwidth in kilobits per second, contributes positively and significantly to the collection of tax revenues. The findings suggest that development policies should be geared towards fostering both more and better ICTs. In this sense, African states should invest massively in high-speed fiber optic networks, serving the entire extent of their countries to allow tax administrations use of more advanced technologies.

This article examines the validity of Ricardian equivalence theory in Benin over the period 1980 to 2020. The study uses a time series with the Autoregressive Long-Lived Regressions (ARDL) model. The results show that budget deficit financing has a positive effect on household consumption in the short term, and a negative effect in the long term. On the other hand, budget deficit financing has a positive effect on gross domestic product in the short term and no significant effect in the long term. These results suggest that budget deficit financing has different short- and long-term effects on economic well-being in Benin. Consequently, policymakers should consider complementary strategies to support long-term economic growth and ensure the sustainability of fiscal policies.

Published: September 2024

This paper investigates the impact of the tax compliance rate and corruption perception on implicit tax in Kaduna State, Nigeria. Data was collected through questionnaires and analysed using Endogeneity, Breusch-Pagan-Godfrey heteroskedasticity and Variance Inflation Factor tests. A Two Stage Least Square Regression Model was used to analyse the data, involving 523 questionnaires. The study found that income levels, corruption perception and public confidence in government have a significant positive impact on implicit tax in the state, and the tax compliance rate has an insignificant negative impact on implicit tax in the state. The study concluded that corruption is the main factor affecting the ability of the Kaduna State government to provide adequate public services in the state, and corruption increases the level of implicit tax. The Kaduna State government should make fighting corruption a priority, as this will help the government to save more, and to provide more public goods and services in the state.

Electronic commerce (e-commerce) businesses have become a common mode of transaction in Ghana. However, Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) has struggled to assess and maximise its revenue potential due to technical challenges and the complex nature of the market. The main objective of this research was therefore to identify the entities, goods and services involved in online transactions and estimate the total monetary value and revenue potential of online transactions in Ghana. To achieve this, both qualitative and quantitative research methodologies were adopted. The study found that resident and non-resident entities constitute 19 per cent and 81 per cent, respectively of those entities engaged in e-commerce activities in Ghana. Further, it was found that about 20 per cent of students, 45 per cent of people in formal employment, 30 per cent of the self-employed and five per cent of the unemployed are engaged in e-commerce. In addition, it appears that groceries constitute 47.5 per cent of all goods traded online with the rest of the goods constituting 52.5 per cent. Again, as many as 31 per cent of the e-commerce businesses identified in this study had not registered with GRA. Of those registered with GRA, 45 per cent had not filed their corporate income tax (CIT) or personal income tax (PIT). Thirty-eight per cent had not filed their value added tax (VAT), 28 per cent had not filed or paid their pay-as- you-earn (PAYE) and 72.4 per cent of the businesses did not withhold taxes. The paper recommends creating a database for all e-commerce businesses, including those with resident and non-resident status. The estimated revenue potential for e-commerce transactions by resident persons across all types of tax is over GHȻ 1.39 billion.
