OS DIREITOS E GARANTIAS FUNDAMENTAIS FRENTE ÀS PRISÕES CAUTELARES
Authors: Siqueira Isabelle da Silva
Published: December 2024

O presente estudo demonstra como a Constituição da República Federativa do Brasil de 1988 (CRFB/88) e o Processo Penal, em conjunto, defendem os direitos e garantias fundamentais dos indivíduos que têm sua liberdade cerceada através das prisões cautelares, intentando preservar um direito penal mais garantista, respeitar a dignidade da pessoa humana e sempre ter como princípio basilar a presunção de inocência. Desta forma, neste trabalho, pretende-se identificar quais e como os direitos e garantias fundamentais são violados nas prisões cautelares, através da análise da legislação brasileira em consonância com estudo bibliográfico das doutrinas específicas da área, bem como a análise de dados estatísticos acerca da temática no Brasil, com ênfase no estado do Rio de Janeiro. Com isso, pode-se constatar que os indivíduos submetidos às prisões cautelares, por diversas vezes, são vítimas dos abusos de autoridades, coerção e arbitrariedade Estatal.

Published: December 2024

Compensation is a form of indemnification charged to the state as a means of protection for victims of terrorist crimes, aimed at reducing the burden of suffering borne by the victims and/or their families. The compensation provided should be based on the assessment of the damages suffered by the victims. This research uses a normative juridical legal research method to explore the concept of compensation for victims of terrorist crimes and the factors that hinder the provision of compensation to them. The findings obtained from this research are that the concept of compensation for victims of terrorist crimes has been regulated in Law Number 5 of 2018 concerning the Eradication of Terrorism Crimes. The provision of compensation to victims of terrorist crimes is carried out through the institution of LPSK (The Witness and Victim Protection Agency) as mandated by the Law. Factors that influence the provision of compensation to victims of terrorist crimes include internal obstacles, such as delays in the application procedure and the implementation of compensation due to the fact that victims can only obtain their compensation rights based on court verdicts and/or determinations. Additionally, the existing laws may not be oriented towards the interests of the victims, which is deemed contradictory to the purpose of providing legal protection, particularly for victims of terrorist crimes. There are also external obstacles, particularly from the victims themselves, where many victims are unaware of their rights as stipulated in the existing legislation due to a lack of government awareness campaigns regarding the existence of the Victim Protection Law.

The low level of student scientific literacy still needs attention. The use of learning media is one solution to increase scientific literacy. The aim of this research is to determine differences in scientific literacy scores based on treatment in the form of using PhET media with differentiated learning styles. The subjects in this research were 25 class VI students at SDN Pandian 1. This research method uses a pre-experimental method with a one shot case study design. The data collection instrument for this research uses cognitive tests to measure students' scientific literacy using the one way ANOVA test data analysis technique with SPSS version 20. Previously, prerequisite tests were carried out, namely the normality test and homogeneity test. The results of the one-way ANOVA hypothesis analysis show that PhET virtual media with learning style differentiation has a significant influence on scientific literacy. The results of the analysis show a Sig value of 0.000, which is smaller than the significance level of 0.05. So it can be concluded that there is a significant difference in the scientific literacy scores of students with visual, auditory and kinesthetic learning styles.
Şizofreninin Tanısında Yapay Zekanın Kullanımına Dair Derleme
Authors: Kaya Buğra
Published: December 2024

This review examines the potential, application areas, and challenges of artificial intelligence (AI) in the diagnosis and management of schizophrenia. AI technologies such as neuroimaging, EEG, and natural language processing (NLP) have demonstrated high accuracy in early diagnosis and personalized treatment processes. Notably, AI has been effective in identifying biomarkers specific to schizophrenia and analyzing linguistic and cognitive abnormalities associated with the disorder. However, issues such as data privacy, ethical concerns, the risk of misdiagnosis, and limited sample sizes restrict the widespread clinical use of these technologies. The diagnostic accuracy of AI, its role in treatment planning, and the more precise analysis of neuroimaging data mark a revolutionary advancement in schizophrenia management. Nevertheless, for the effective use of these technologies, further studies with broader and more diverse sample groups are required, along with enhanced data security and ethical regulations. Additionally, training programs should be implemented to enable clinical personnel to effectively utilize AI-based systems, and multidisciplinary collaboration should be strengthened. Considering all these factors, enhancing the impact of AI in the diagnosis and management of schizophrenia should be prioritized.

Published: December 2024

Purpose: To compare voiding parameters in women with and without increased postvoid residual (PVR) volume, to correlate these parameters with PVR volume and PVR percentage, and to describe their ability to predict an increased PVR volume.Methods: Retrospective cross-sectional study of urodynamics data prospectively acquired from consecutive symptomatic women over a 5-year period. Patients with spinal cord disorders and with abdominal straining during voiding (abdominal pressure ≥10 cm H2O over baseline at maximum flow rate [Qmax]) were excluded. Increased PVR volume was defined as ≥50 mL. Patients with and without increased PVR volume were matched by age, presence of urodynamic stress urinary incontinence and premicturition bladder volume. Female bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) index (female-BOOI), urethral resistance (UR), projected isovolumetric pressure 1 (PIP1), and relative BOO indexes (female-BOOI/PIP1 and UR/PIP1 ratios) were calculated. Linear regression analysis was applied to correlate the voiding indexes with PVR volume and PVR percentage. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was calculated to describe diagnostic accuracy of these indexes for increased PVR volume.Results: One-hundred ten women with mean age 65.9±13.7 (range, 20–87) years were included. All voiding parameters were significantly different between women with and without increased PVR volume, except for PIP1. Female-BOOI showed the best correlation with increased PVR volume (R2=0.2509, P<0.001) and PVR percentage (R2=0.3677, P<0.001). PIP1 showed no correlation. Relative BOOI indexes did not improve these correlations. ROC curve analyzes confirmed that female-BOOI and UR had good ability to predict increased PVR volume (AUC=0.841 and AUC=0.856, respectively).Conclusions: PVR volume and PVR percentage correlated with BOO but not to detrusor contraction strength parameters in symptomatic women that void without abdominal straining. The results of this study contribute to the understanding of the pathophysiology of increased PVR volume in women.
Examining the Moderating Role of Ease of doing Business with Foreign Restrictions on Foreign Direct Investment
Authors: Naushahi Muhammad Mudassar , Rehman Hafeez ur
Published: December 2024

Foreign direct investment is crucial for the development through the creation of new jobs. Sometimes, the massive flow of foreign investment creates many challenges if it needs to be properly managed. The present study examines the moderating role of Ease of Doing Business (EDB) with aggregated and disaggregated FDI restrictions on FDI inflows. The panel data from 2003 to 2022 is collected from OECD and WDI databases. The empirical results are estimated using the Panel Quantile regression. It shows that all types of restriction propose an inverted U-shaped relationship to determine the FDI inflows in OCED countries. EDB is used as the moderator, shifting the turning point to the left side of the inverted U-shaped curve. In the case of non-OECD countries, most types of restrictions show a U-shaped relationship to determine the FDI inflows. EDB is also used as the moderator in this case, shifting the tuning point to the right side of the U-shaped curve. Both results show that EDB significantly reduces the FDI restrictions and increases FDI inflows. The countries should pay special attention to increasing the ease of business indicators.

Anesthetic efficacy of Articaine Buccal Infiltration compared to Lidocaine Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block in symptomatic mandibular premolars: a randomized control trial
Authors: Ali Ahsan , Shah Fawad Ali , Nawaz Saadia , Junaid Syed Muhammad
Published: December 2024

Introduction: Pain during root canal treatment is the leading cause of anxiety among dental patients; 10-81% of patients with an irreversibly inflamed pulp experienced moderate pain during the procedure even after local anesthesia.
Objective: To compare the anesthetic efficacy of 4% Articaine Buccal Infiltration to 2% Lidocaine Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis in mandibular premolars.
Materials & Methods: A randomized control trial was done at the Endodontics Department of Rehman College of Dentistry, Peshawar, from January 2023 to July 2023. Eighty-six patients with symptoms of irreversible pulpitis in mandibular premolars were selected using purposive sampling technique and divided into two groups by random allocation using the lottery method: Articaine Buccal Infiltration and Lidocaine Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block. Pain was recorded at two points using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS): before the administration of anesthesia and during the root canal treatment. SPSS version 26.0 was used to enter and analyze the data for descriptive and comparative statistics. Differences of means were compared by the Paired Samples T test and the Independent Samples T test within and between the two groups. The Chi-square test was used to determine the anesthetic efficacy. A p value ≤0.05 was considered significant.
Results: Four percent Articaine buccal infiltration was successful in 53.5% of the cases and 2% Lidocaine inferior alveolar nerve block was successful in 60.5% of the cases in anesthetizing mandibular premolars with signs of irreversible pulpitis. No significant difference was found between the two techniques (p>0.05).
Conclusion: None of the two techniques showed superiority or produced profound anesthesia in irreversibly inflamed mandibular premolars. Supplemental anesthesia was needed for painless root canal treatment.
Rituals of motherwork through conversations regarding social media use: A feminist re-imagination of mothering
Authors: Baldo-Cubelo Julienne Thesa
Published: December 2024

This study rests on the premise that motherwork is primarily embodied invisible work resonating with a sociological concept of articulation work. Articulation work as originally posited by Strauss (1985) considers social worlds in negotiated orders of managing and making-do with discontinuities. This involves conversations, often difficult to facilitate, that mothers do in their attempts to regulate their adolescent children’s social media use.
Using an exploratory interpretivist approach to communication research and using the tools of feminist interviewing and focus group discussion (FGD) facilitating, this paper examined how authentic connections between mothers and their adolescent children are made possible in parental regulation of social media use. Thirty (30) mother informants were selected using intensity sampling.
Guided by Carey’s (2009) Communication as Ritual Model and Kramarae’s (2005) Muted Group Theory, data revealed how authentic connections between mothers and their adolescent children emerge in conversations that covered following: a.) body, voice, and sexuality—a bridge over muddy waters; b.) housework, productivity, and functionalit—a challenge to old paradigms; c.) happiness and success—the convolution between the now and the future; d.) community, parenting, and family—the ambivalent “village”; and e.) influence, purpose, and value—the anxiety to matter.
The Master-Space Supergravity: Particle mechanics
Authors: Ter-Kazarian G.
Published: December 2024

This report aims to expose further the assertions made in a recent theory of global Master space
(MSp)-SUSY (Ter-Kazarian, 2023a, 2024a) by developing its local extension. The global MSp-SUSY
reviews the physical processes underlying the standard Lorenz code of motion and its deformation tested
in experiments for ultra-high energy cosmic ray and TeV-γ photons observed. The local extension of
MSp-SUSY yields the gauge theory of translations. This as a corollary makes room for the theory of MS gpSupergravity, subject to certain rules. The superspace is a direct sum of background semi-Riemannian
4D-space and curved Master space MS gp ≡ V 2
(2D semi-Riemannian space), V4 ⊕ V 2
, with an inclusion
of additional fermionic coordinates Θ(θ,
¯θ) and Θ( ¯ θ,
¯θ), which are induced by the spinors θ and ¯θ referred
to MS gp. Being embedded in V4, the MS gp is the unmanifested indispensable individual companion of
a particle of interest devoid of any matter influence. While all the particles are living on V4, their
superpartners can be viewed as living on MS gp. In this framework supersymmetry and general coordinate
transformations are described in a unified way as certain diffeomorphisms. The action of simple MS gp-SG
includes the Hilbert term for a fictitious graviton (with spin 2) coexisting with a fictitious fermionic field
of, so-called, gravitino (sparticle with spin 3/2) described by the Rarita-Scwinger kinetic term. They
are the bosonic and fermionic states of a gauge particle in V4 and MS gp, respectively, or vice versa. A
curvature of MS gp arises entirely due to the inertial properties of the Lorentz-rotated frame of interest.
This refers to the particle of interest itself, without relation to other matter fields, so that this can
be globally removed by appropriate coordinate transformations. The supervielbein, being an alogue of
Cartan’s local frame, is the dynamical variable of superspace formulation, which identifies the tetrad field
and the Rarita-Schwinger fields. The spin connection is the second dynamical variable in this theory. The
tetrad field plays the role of a gauge field (graviton) associated with local transformations. The gravitino
is a gauge field associated with local supersymmetry. Within that context, we consider particle mechanics.
Spotedness of most active flare stars detected by TESS
Authors: Akopian A. A.
Published: December 2024

A new method has been proposed to determine the coverage of starspots by using periodic functions
related to flare frequency. The distribution of starspots on flare stars is modeled through a von Mises
circular distribution, with parameters derived from the corresponding flare frequency function. Estimates
of spot coverage for the stars studied have been obtained.
Deciphering Galactic Halos: A Detailed Review of Star Formation in NGC 5128 (Cen A)

NGC 5128 (Centaurus A), the closest giant elliptical galaxy outside the Local Group to the Milky
Way, is one of the brightest extragalactic radio sources. It is distinguished by a prominent dust lane and
powerful jets, driven by a supermassive black hole at its core. Using previously identified long-period
variable (LPV) stars from the literature, this study aims to reconstruct the star formation history (SFH)
of two distinct regions in the halo of NGC 5128. These regions reveal remarkably similar SFHs, despite
being located about 28 kpc apart on opposite sides of the galaxy’s center. In Field 1, star formation
rates (SFRs) show notable increases at approximately 800 Myr and 3.8 Gyr ago. Field 2 exhibits similar
peaks at these times, along with an additional rise around 6.3 Gyr ago. The increase in SFR around 800
Myr ago is consistent with earlier research suggesting a merger event. Since no LPV catalog exists for
the central region of NGC 5128, we focused our investigation on its outer regions, which has provided
new insights into the complex evolutionary history of this cornerstone galaxy. The SFH traced by LPVs
supports a scenario in which multiple events of nuclear activity have triggered episodic, jet-induced star
formation.

We review the field of active galaxies (both AGN and Starbursts) focusing on their multiwavelength
search and studies at the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory (BAO). Many famous historical surveys
carried out in Byurakan are known and many more are active and ongoing. We give examples of studies
in optical wavelengths, IR, radio and X-ray, as well as multiwavelength studies. The studies are characterized by a multiwavelength approach to statistical analysis of a large amount of data obtained in
different wavelengths. Results on HRC/BHRC sample objects (optical identifications of ROSAT X-ray
sources), studies of Markarian galaxies in UV and multiwavelength SEDs, abundance and star formation determinations in Mrk galaxies from SDSS spectra, revised optical classification of “LINERs”, study
and classification of SDSS spectra for Byurakan-IRAS Galaxies, summary of observations and study of
Byurakan-IRAS Galaxies (BIG objects), discovery of new bright ULIRGs from the IRAS PSC/FSC Combined Catalogue and their spectral classification, radio variable sources at 1400 MHz and their optical
variability, classification of BZCAT objects having uncertain types (BZU objects), and optical variability
of blazars are presented. At the end, we briefly present our new fine classification of active galaxies based
on all our previous studies.
Star Formation History of the Local Group Dwarf Irregular Galaxy, NGC 6822
Authors: Khatamsaz F. , Abdollahi M. , Abdollahi H. , Javadi A. , van Loon J. Th
Published: December 2024

NGC 6822 is an isolated dwarf irregular galaxy in the local group at a distance of ∼ 490 kpc. In this
paper, we present the star formation history (SFH) within a field with a radius of ∼ 3 kpc, beyond the
optical body of the galaxy ( ∼ 1.2 kpc). We utilized a novel method based on evolved asymptotic giant
branch (AGB) stars. We collected the Near-Infrared data of 329 variable stars, including long-period and
-amplitude variables and Carbon-rich AGB stars. We used a stellar evolutionary track and theoretical
isochrones to obtain the birth mass, age, and pulsation duration of the detected stars to calculate the star
formation rate (SFR) and trace the SFH of the galaxy. We studied the history of galaxy star formation
for the mean metallicity value of Z ≈ 0.003. We reconstructed the SFH for two regions: the bar region,
a central rectangular area, and the outer region, which covers a circular field beyond the bar region and
extends to a radius of 3 kpc. Our results show a significant burst of star formation around 2.6 and 2.9
Gyr ago in the bar and outer regions, respectively. Additionally, we observed a notable enhancement in
the SFR in the bar region over the past 200 Myr

Authors: Doicov Maria , Piterschi Carolina , Rizov Cristina
Published: December 2024

Acromegaly is a rare neuroendocrine disease that requires a specific approach in the evaluation of clinical symptoms. Evaluation of medical records of 28 patients with acromegaly admitted to the „Endocrinology” department, IMSP Republican Clinical Hospital „Timofei Moșneaga” during the period 2018-2023 were analyzed. In men the mean age of acromegaly onset is 25.5 (± 5,86) years, in women is 46.29 (± 11,85) years. The most common early manifestations: facial changes, enlargement of the extremities and headache. The most frequent symptoms detected during the disease: headache (64.29%), visual disturbances (60.71%), facies acromegalis (57.14%), leg enlargement (53.57%), arthralgias (50%). The most common complications in patients were the following: cardiomyopathy (67.86%), hypertension (57.14%), thyroid gland disorders (42.86%), type 2 diabetes (35.71%). Out of 24 patients - 15 patients (62.5%) had recurrence of acromegaly. Acromegaly affects almost all body systems: endocrine, nervous, cardiovascular, musculoskeletal and others, leading to a wide variety of clinical symptoms. The most common symptoms detected during the disease were associated with local tumor effects, hormonal disturbances and changes in metabolism.

In recent decades a separate interest has been the study of the influence of drugs on thyroid function.The selection and analysis of scientific papers in the Pubmed database was carried out regarding the disorders of the function of the thyroid gland caused by drugs. It was found that the drugs are able to affect the function of the thyroid gland at the level of the hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid axis, the synthesis, release, activation, metabolism and elimination of thyroid hormones, as well as to influence the effects of thyroid hormones at the cellular and systemic level. A wide range of drugs (iodine preparations, antiepileptics, antituberculosis drugs, monoclonal antibodies, glucocorticoids, antitumor drugs, estrogens, immunostimulatory cytokines, antacids, bile acid sequestrants, amiodarone, heparin, furosemide, etc.), have been identified, which can influence the function of the thyroid gland through different mechanisms. Drugs may induce subclinical or clinically manifest hypothyroidism or thyrotoxicosis. When examining the patient with suspected thyroid pathology, it is necessary to collect the anamnesis to highlight the drugs used as possible etiologic factors of thyroid dysfunction.

Published: December 2024

There is a high incidence of diabetes mellitus in people with hypertension, and the selection of antihypertensive therapy requires careful evaluation of efficacy and safety. Studies have demonstrated, that beta-adrenoblockers reduce total and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in diabetic hypertensive patients. A narrative review of the literature was performed with the selection and analysis of scientific articles published in the Hinari database, academic literature, regarding the use of beta-adrenoblockers as antihypertensive therapy in diabetic patients. It was revealed, that beta-adrenoblockers possess distinctive pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics, depending on their action on adrenoreceptors and additional effects (nitric oxide release, antioxidant), as well as variable influence on glucidic and lipid metabolism. Thus, non-selective and beta-1-selective beta-adrenoblockers, without vasodilator action, induced weight gain, dysregulation of insulin sensitivity, altered lipid and carbohydrate profile, and a diabetogenic effect with risk of developing de novo diabetes. Beta-adrenoblockers with vasodilatory action (carvedilol, nebivolol) demonstrated neutral or improving effects on lipid profile (↑HDL, ↓LDL), insignificant influence on glycemic control, and antioxidant effect. Beta-adrenoblockers can be used for the treatment of hypertension, especially in patients with cardiovascular comorbidities (arrhythmias, heart failure, coronary artery disease). In patients with hypertension and diabetes mellitus it is recommended to use vasodilatory beta-adrenoblockers (carvedilol, nebivolol), without negative effects on lipid and glucose metabolism, and a low probability of de novo diabetes induction.

The use of glucocorticoids during pregnancy is challenging, as it requires balancing the therapeutic benefits for the mother against the potential risks to the fetus. Understanding their influence on fertility, and knowledge of the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of glucocorticoids during pregnancy is essential for the safe and effective management of these drugs. The paper presents a bibliographic review, using fulltext articles from the Hinari, and PubMed databases, as well as national and international clinical protocols regarding the use of glucocorticoids during pregnancy and their impact on intra- and postnatal development. The analysis of the selected articles revealed that systemic glucocorticoids in pregnancy are used for their anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive and substitution purposes in case of deficiency. Another indication of systemic glucocorticoids is the treatment of severe infection with COVID-19, including during pregnancy. Evidence shows that prednisolone is compatible with pregnancy and is the corticosteroid of choice for the treatment of rheumatic conditions during pregnancy. Guidelines on antenatal glucocorticoid use state that where preterm birth is anticipated, pregnant women should be given intramuscular dexamethasone or betamethasone to reduce the risk of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome. At the same time, there is increasing evidence that some fetal glucocorticoid treatments are either ineffective or may lead to adverse outcomes, in addition to lasting epigenetic changes in many homeostatic links. Understanding the pharmacological properties, the underlying mechanisms of the beneficial effects of glucocorticoids, and the potential negative effects will help select the correct glucocorticoid according to the clinical situation with the improvement of fetal and maternal prognosis.

Published: December 2024

Late-onset hypogonadism (LOH) is the most controversial form of hypogonadism and an unsolved problem. Its prevalence is unknown, it is estimated as being at least 1 in 5 men after 40 years, and about 80% of those with comorbidities may have hypogonadism. LOH does not have age-defined criteria and may be included in its start-out and developing mechanisms elements of primary hypogonadism due to insufficient testicular function and secondary. When preparing this article, the reviews of 40 analytical studies and international guidelines of the European Academy of Andrology and the Societies of Endocrinology and Urology were consulted. This type of hypogonadism is dependent on the age and men’s health status. Decreased testosterone levels can be the result of chronic disease, diabetes, organ failure, or obesity. Or because of the presence of chronic systemic inflammation. Older patients with signs of testosterone deficiency need an individual approach to establish the presence of a reversible/ functional form of hypogonadism that can be ameliorated with other remedies than testosterone replacement therapy. After clinical and biochemical confirmation of hypogonadism, testosterone treatment recommended recommended only with an evaluation of potential benefits and risks.
Paricalcitol therapy: practical experience
Authors: Cepoida Petru
Published: December 2024

Mineral bone disease in chronic kidney disease is associated with increased morbidity, decreased quality of life, and heightened mortality. Paricalcitol is potentially able to reduce such complications. There were examined 20 chronically dialyzed patients (9 women and 11 men) with PTH values > 85 pmol/l (> 800 pg/ml) (normal values: 10-85 pg/ml) in 2019 in Chisinau 1 Dialysis Department. Paricalcitol (Paricalcitol) was administered to these patients for 12 weeks in dose equal to 20 mcg/week i.v. There were dynamically determined corresponding biochemical changes in phospho-calcium metabolism. PTH levels: initial 151,36±16,94 pmol/l - final 104,11±19,00 mmol/l (Sign test: p≈0,0008; Wilcoxon test: p≈0,0006). In 18 (90%) patients there were observed PTH reduction following this treatment, including in 40% cases - by more than 50 pmol/l (470 pg/ml). Lack of PTH reduction was recorded only in 10% patients with initial PTH values above 200 pmol/l. Probably, the administered dose was not enough. Statistical evaluation demonstrated the presence of an inverse correlation between baseline PTH values and PTH reduction under treatment with Paricalcitol fixed dose 20 mcg i.v./week. Total serum calcium levels: initial 2.57±0.04 mmol/l - final 2.59±0.06 mmol/l (p>0.05). Alkaline phosphatase levels: initial 205.4±38.73 IU/l - final 189.0±40.03 IU/l (p>0.05). I.v. administration of Paricalcitol demonstrated high efficacy with normalization of PTH values in one third of patients and their reduction in 90% of patients in the treated group.

Mineral deposits of significant economic value are abundant in the subsurface of Nigeria, presenting a promising alternative to the nations over dependence on petroleum revenues. This study interprets aeromagnetic data from Share, Kwara State, Nigeria, to delineate subsurface structural features associated with hydrothermal zones, which are key indicators for potential mineralization. The methodologies applied upward continuation, analytic signal, tilt derivative, and first vertical derivative (FVD). These offer insights into subsurface geology that can be broadly applied in geophysical exploration and mineral resource management. The results reveal structural trends predominantly in the NE–SW direction, with some NW–SE alignments, indicative of hydrothermal alterations linked to mineral deposits. The analytical signal map identified amplitude values ranging from 0.004 nT/m to 0.073 nT/m, with low and intermediate magnetic intensities linked to sediment-filled basement rocks and possible limestone and sandstone formations. High-gradient anomalies, 1.280 nT/m to 1.374 nT/m, were attributed to geological contacts, fractures, dykes, and hydrothermal vents. Depth estimates from the source parameter imaging map revealed hydrothermal and structural zones at depths ranging from 287.9 m to 1360.7 m, with deeper sources >1202.1 m indicating tectonic activity and mineralization potential. The FVD and Tilt Derivative maps further highlighted faulted zones, shear structures, and intrusive bodies with intensities between 0.031 nT/m and 0.041 nT/m, suggesting active tectonics. High magnetic anomalies in the central, northeastern, and southeastern regions were identified as prime targets for exploration, indicating magnetite-rich bodies, igneous intrusions, and hydrothermal zones. Integrated exploration strategies combining geophysical, geochemical, and structural data are recommended to refine anomaly delineation, prioritize field validation, and enhance mineralization discovery. These findings establish the Share area as a promising site for regional mineral exploration, supporting Nigeria’s diversification efforts toward sustainable resource development.
