Published: July 2024

Background and Objective. Midwives play a vital role in the attainment of Sustainable Development Goals related to the health and well-being of mothers and newborns. Strengthening the leadership and management capacities of midwives is pivotal to the fulfillment of their mandate beyond assisting in birth and delivery. The study explores the perspectives of midwives about professional education and practice, which are aimed to serve as bases for developing a leadership course for midwives to enhance their roles in public health.
Methods. The study employed a descriptive-qualitative design. Using a semi-structured questionnaire, online focus group discussions (FGDs) with midwives from the academe, professional organization, and clinical practice were conducted. Through directed content analysis, the gathered information was analyzed to include the participants’ insights on midwifery competencies, teaching methods and assessment strategies, supplementary courses and training, and factors affecting midwifery practice.
Results. A total of eleven (11) participants contributed to the FGDs, which included midwives from the academe (dean, faculty), professional organization (board member of the Professional Regulation Commission), and clinical practice (public and private institutions). Notably, participants shared their perspectives regarding the similarities/differences in the terminal competencies of midwifery programs. The demands of outcomes-based education, coupled by the shift to online learning due to the pandemic, pushed the need for modifications in program delivery for the students. Results highlighted the need for supplementary courses and capacity building on leadership and management, research, and interprofessional collaboration. Midwives shared factors that affect their professional practice, which include insufficient training, inadequate manpower, and differences in expectations/standards in task performance.
Conclusion. The findings indicate the need to develop capacity-building courses for midwives to enhance theircontribution towards universal health care. The results of this study also highlight the importance of understanding and improving the competencies of midwives across the building blocks of the health system, which include health service delivery, human resources for health, health information systems, health financing, health governance, and health regulation. Notably, key concepts recommended for the Leadership Development Course for Midwives include: leadership and management, research, and interprofessional collaboration.

Authors: Paguio, PhD, MA, RN Jenniffer T. , Hernandez, MPH, RN Mary Abigail A. , Bonito, DrPH, MAN, RN Sheila R.
Published: July 2024

Background and Objective. Global health highlights the transnational determinants, issues, and possible solutions for improving health outcomes. Addressing global health issues requires population-based approaches coupled with individualized healthcare across settings, including strategies for achieving health equity. Designing and implementing global health solutions requires competent nurse leaders who can facilitate multi-disciplinary collaborations, engage in policy development, and lead advocacies that support the global health agenda. Thus, this paper examined the stakeholder perspectives that informed the development of a leadership program on global health for nurse leaders in the Western Pacific Region (WPR).
Methods. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach to generate key recommendations for a context-appropriate, multi-country capacity-building program for nurse leaders on global health. The Analysis Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation (ADDIE) model and reflexive approach were employed to guide the development of the training design. Twenty-five nurse leaders from World Health Organization Collaborating Centers (WHO-CC) in the Western Pacific participated. Qualitative data were collected from participant feedback and post-activity sessions throughout program implementation.
Results. Thematic analysis of stakeholder data revealed that the program (1) capitalized on equipping nurseleaders with the concepts related to global health and developing competencies in leadership, policyengagement, and advocacy; (2) ensured learning strategies by having participants from varied contextsand experiences; and (3) reflected on the strengths and limitations of the use of the online platform.
Conclusion. This paper contributed to the growing literature on global health and programs that supportaddressing global health issues. The findings underscored the urgent need to capacitate nurses in leadershippositions who contribute to addressing emerging issues in global health. The paper recommended improvements in the design and implementation of the Global Health Nursing Leadership Program to engage more nurse leaders across the region and enhance content and delivery.
DATA PROTECTION TECHNIQUES: A CRYPTOGRAPHY APPROACH
Authors: Reynolds Laszlo , Winks Johnson
Published: July 2024

Purpose: Digital world is a complex and a constantly evolving world alongside the modernization. This has been through the improvement of the technology from physical nature information to digitized data that is the information technology. Data is, therefore, becoming a basic element in today's world than they were anticipated some three decades ago, now being shared and stored electronically. This study, therefore, sought to establish the ways in protecting information privacy using cryptography.
Methodology: The study adopted a desktop literature review method (desk study). This involved an in-depth review of studies related to data protection and cryptography. Three sorting stages were implemented on the subject under study that is data protection and cryptography in order to determine the viability of the subject for research. The first stage that comprised the initial identification of all articles that were based on data protection and cryptography from various data bases. A second search involved fully available publications on the subject of data protection and cryptography. the third step involved the selection of fully accessible publications. Reduction of the literature to only fully accessible publications yielded specificity and allowed the researcher to focus on the articles that related to data protection and cryptography which was split into top key words. After an in-depth search into the top key words (data protection and cryptography), the researcher arrived at 12 articles that were suitable for analysis. Analysis was done using Excel where the study presented the findings in form of themes.
Findings: The research findings point towards several methods that can be used in cryptography which were concluded to include symmetric encryption, asymmetric encryption and hashing.
Unique contribution to theory, policy, and practice: Previous studies were reviewed and some of them presented several knowledge gaps. The review of the literature presented knowledge gaps in the contextual, conceptual and methodological fronts. For instance, one of the gap that was presented was the contextual gap (geographical gap). This is because some of the studies were done in different geographical contexts such as the United States, China and Japan. The application of the findings will be challenged by the technological advancements in Kenya since Kenya is still a developing country in the process of up taking new technologies. Other studies in their research applied different methodologies such as the use of the FTK Imager and the use of Hashing. The studies did not entirely focus on the use of cryptography as a method of data security and thus they presented a methodological gap.

Authors: Gautam Anshul , Singh Pawan , K R Sriranga , Arya Shruti
Published: July 2024

Age of the bull influences the sexual  behaviour and quality of semen. The present study  was conducted to find out the age window at which  the bull shows best reproductive performance.  Fifteen Sahiwal bulls were selected and classified  into three age groups (n=5, in each group) - G1(2- 3.5), G2 (>3.5-8) and G3 (>8-12) years. The sexual  behaviour was recorded at the time of semen  collection by CCTV camera at 15 days interval.  Scrotal circumference (by scrotal tape) and scrotal  surface temperature (by IRT) were also taken at  monthly interval. The data so obtained in the  experiment was subjected to statistical analysis by  one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) using SPSS  software version 26.0 to draw scientific  interferences. The results revealed that the mean  value of scrotal circumference was significantly  (p<0.05) low in G1 as compared to the other two  groups. No significant difference was observed  among the groups for scrotal surface temperature  and scrotal temperature gradient. Most of the sexual  behaviour parameters were significantly high in the  G2 (>3.5-8) group except for the time to enter arena  from preparation site and total number of  mountings. Therefore, it can be concluded from this  study that sexual behaviour is influenced by age  and adult (middle) aged bulls performed better as  compared to young and old groups.

Authors: Chaudhary A P , Srivastava A K , Singh K P , Ankuya K J , Patel H A , Patel V K
Published: July 2024

The present investigation was conducted in  the Banni area of Kachchh during 2008 to 2012,  which is a vast grazing land spread on the 3847 sq  km area. The main source of livelihood in the region  is rearing of livestock, handicraft and contract based animal grazing system. While the education  level of Maldharis is 26.50% and lower than national  average, their use of ITK in restraining of animals  and conservation of natural resources is unique.  Various restraining tools used by them are Dan and  Nunjan, Vano / Bagari, Pavro, Kutopado, Ango  Mochi and Bundho. They also use “kudo” in goat  and “Dan” to restrain the movement of camel for  grazing and “Bagari” to protect the camel from  suckling by the calf. The use of psychological tools  like voice produced by different size of bells (mutter  or matri) and keeping all the animals in the herd  intact during grazing either during day or night hours  without any human assistance is the best example  of management of animals on the scientific  principles. Similarly, harvesting and conservation of  rain water in the “Khuriya” is also a unique example  of conservation of natural resources. They allow  their buffaloes in the dry pond which prevent heat  stress and also protection from mosquitoes. They  use Khurjadi for transportation of small ruminants,  “Dambh” for identification of animals and for  housing the calves under the tree shade by making  the enclosure called as “Vado.” These techniques  are based on scientific principles and have very  good impact on animal management.

HEALTH LITERACY IN NUTRITION AND THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH COMMUNICATION
Authors: Gomes de Mello Priscila
Published: July 2024

Health Literacy (HL) is associated with the acquisition of knowledge, motivation and skills to access, understand, evaluate and apply health information to make choices and decisions about daily health care, disease prevention and health promotion to maintain or improve quality of life. From this perspective, Nutritional Literacy (NL) and Food Literacy (FL) emerge. The objective of this study is to analyze the scientific production through a scientometric study on Health Literacy in Nutrition and the production of Health Communication in this field; and to describe the production on Health Literacy in Nutrition and the Production of Health Communication. This study is of the qualitative and quantitative type developed through a Literature Review and Scientometric study in which articles on the theme of Health Literacy and Health Communication were researched from January 2012 to December 2022 in Clarivate’s Web of Science (WoS). We found 367 references that dealt with Health Literacy and Health Communication, and out of a total of 22 articles, 10 that dealt specifically with the approach to Nutrition and Food were selected. Therefore, the insertion of LN and LA can constitute strategies with potential for effectiveness in health promotion and prevention, when linked to health communication processes. It is necessary to plan new studies in the Brazilian population to analyze the benefits to public health.

Authors: Freitas Cláudio , Manfredo Elizabeth Cardoso Gerhardt
Published: July 2024

O artigo analisa a produção de dissertações e teses brasileiras que enfocaram a utilização do programa GeoGebra no ensino e aprendizagem de matemática nos Anos Iniciais do Ensino Fundamental. O problema central da pesquisa versa sobre o uso dos recursos tecnológicos na educação matemática, com destaque para os softwares de geometria dinâmica. O estudo se justifica pela crescente utilização das tecnologias nas diferentes práticas sociais, entre as quais a educativa. A fonte de coleta foi o catálogo on-line da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior. A metodologia seguiu os parâmetros de uma revisão integrativa, dividida em 3 etapas. Primeiro, foram analisadas todas as produções. Na sequência, definiu-se as pesquisas defendidas de 2017 a 2023. Em terceiro, resumiu-se os achados das pesquisas circunscritas aos anos iniciais. Os resultados indicaram que o GeoGebra é mais utilizado em pesquisa na área curricular de geometria. Os primeiros estudos datam de 2008 e tendo o Mestrado Profissional em Matemática em Rede Nacional, iniciado em 2011, como um dos indutores da ampliação de estudos sobre o programa. A principal metodologia é a pesquisa participativa, voltada aos discentes, tendo o Ensino Médio como locus principal de estudo. Evidenciou-se ainda que nos Anos Iniciais há uma baixa ocorrência de pesquisas envolvendo o GeoGebra. Tais investigações, apesar de poucas, apresentam evidências que o GeoGebra é um recurso importante ao desenvolvimento de noções matemáticas entre o público infantil. Conclui-se pela necessidade de maiores investigações sobre as possibilidades do uso dessa tecnologia nos Anos Iniciais do Fundamental.

O envolvimento efetivo das comunidades com o seu território está essencialmente relacionado às práticas que promovem resultados expressivos em amplas áreas, podendo abranger a melhoria dos índices educacionais locais, a fruição e a sustentabilidade, seja ela cultural, econômica ou ambiental. O objeto de estudo da presente pesquisa são as comunidades de mulheres residentes nas áreas adjacentes de uma Unidade de Conservação. A investigação parte de uma experiência nacional e de outros cinco casos internacionais, definidos a partir de uma pormenorizada revisão bibliográfica realizada em plataformas possuidoras de mecanismos bibliométricos. O artigo tem como objetivo, inicialmente, propor um apontamento significativo sobre as conexões teóricas entre o modelo de empoderamento de gênero sugerido pela ONU em 1995 e o conceito de desenvolvimento proposto por Amartya Sen. A partir dessa premissa, essas observações e similitudes conceituais serão relacionadas sob a ótica de algumas experiências de inserção e valorização social de gênero, que permeiam o cotidiano de muitas mulheres moradoras do entorno de uma Unidade de Conservação, levando em consideração as peculiaridades culturais e sociais estabelecidas em cada região sugerida para o estudo.

Segundo a projeção do IBGE para o ano de 2023, a população brasileira estava composta por 48,88% de homens e 51,13% de mulheres. Essa proporção repercutiu no campo eleitoral, pois segundo o Tribunal Superior Eleitoral, em 2023 a cifra do eleitorado brasileiro foi de 47,33% de homens e 52,65% de mulheres. Mas será que esta proporção também se revela nos espaços políticos? Para responder a esta indagação, utilizamos pesquisas bibliográficas e documentais, tomando como objeto de estudo a participação política das mulheres no estado de Pernambuco. Os resultados mostram que apesar da conquista de direitos, dos investimentos no campo educacional, de constituírem a maioria da população brasileira, as mulheres continuam sub-representadas nos espaços políticos de poder.
