Published: April 2023

Parents are the main person in charge of their children's education. Wherever the child undergoes education, both formal, informal and non-formal institutions parents still play a role in determining the future of their children's education. Education outside the family, not in the sense of releasing parental responsibility in children's education, but it is carried out by parents solely because of the limitations of knowledge owned by parents, because the nature of science that continues to develop following the development of the Times, while parents have limitations. The aim of this study is to analyze the influence of educated and uneducated mothers on the achievement of English language learning in an Indonesian rural junior high school. Data analysis in this study is qualitative based on the use of complete and in-depth information in interpreting data about variables, is non-quantitative and is intended to conduct in-depth exploration and not expand on phenomena. The method used is by interviewing, observation and documentation methods.

The findings in this study, namely the role of parents in determining students' learning achievement in school was very large. Parents who did not pay attention to their child's education, for example they were indifferent to their child's learning process, do not pay attention at all to the interests and needs of their children in learning, do not manage their study time, do not provide or complete learning tools, do not want to know how the progress of learning, the difficulties experienced by the child in learning and others can cause children to lack or even not succeed in learning. Conversely, parents who always paid attention to their children, especially attention to their learning activities at home, made children more active and more excited in learning because the child knows that not only himself who wants to move forward, but his parents also have the same desire. So that the learning results or learning achievements achieved by students become better.

A Socio-Linguistic Profile of Nigeria’s Eastern Borderlands
Authors: Agbor Otora Osmond , Ajimase Angela
Published: April 2023

The paper examines the phenomena of language maintenance, shift, separation, and spread of the demographic proportion of the ethnolinguistic groups on either side of the borders, and argues that language use in various public domains is consistent with language policy, planning, and development. The paper is anchored on visible data in a conceptual framework that offers a triglottic configuration that has been used in both and within various multilingual states in Africa, and more specifically with Cameroon by Tadedjeu (1975) and Nigeria by Brann (1981). The Tadedjeu and Brann framework enabled an analysis of the border configuration concerning languages. It is indicated that the seemingly autochthonous peoples of the border are so deeply rooted that it appears most of them wandered there within the last few centuries. Thus, with the growing level of interdependence across the border region, it is considered that the younger generation of the border peoples will someday wander into cities, become bilingual, and forget their language, leaving behind a vanishing generation of chthonophones.
Complexities in the Determination of the General Will: A Critical Appraisal of Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Authors: TamBari Prince Nwinee , Igben Francis Iroryakpo
Published: April 2023

The General Will is one of Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s original contributions to the district of political philosophy. The intellectual burden and herculean task of this inquiry consist of reconciling the General Will with the sanctity of individual freedom, which Rousseau also purports to protect. Through the method of philosophical and textual analysis, this paper examines the inherent absurdities, complexities, and obscurities associated with the determination and realisation of the General Will, which lie at the heart of, and are the nucleus of, the political philosophy of Rousseau. It further x-rays the acclaimed infallibility and veracity of this political theory vis-à-vis its claim as a moral norm—an authentic will that is ultimately right in its normative credentials. It adopts a qualitative research method, in which case, it is basically descriptive and highly analytical. It is significant as it provides a blueprint and a veritable guide for policymakers at all governance or social engineering levels. In conclusion, a case is made that, notwithstanding its manifold discontents and gross inadequacies, it is indeed a standard for enhancing distributive justice and the common good. It recommends that the doctrine of the General Will be made a guiding ideology and national philosophy and be incorporated into the federal character principle to address the lingering and looming challenges of Nigerian federalism against the backdrop of its fragile state structure. It also suggests that it be used as a criterion for establishing or gauging essential aims and guiding principles of state policy in the Nigerian political system.

Published: April 2023

One of the major problems faced by Indonesian young learners when learning English grammar is being difficult to memorize sentence pattern with present tense. Grouping with vertical and horizontal lines were believed as an effective memory strategy to memorize the sentence pattern. Therefore, this study targeted to explore whether or not the use of memory strategy was applicable for students when constructing sentences. The research used quasi-experimental design. Each of the classes consisted of 10 participants chosen through total purposive sampling technique. Statistical technique using SPSS program was applied to confirm the hypotheisis. Based on the test of normality, it was found that the probability value of 0.134 is greater than the significance level of 0.05. This indicated that the data were in a normal distribution. Therefore, test of significance was done through parametric test and it showed that the significance value of 0.025 was equal to the probability level of 0.025, which means that there is no significant difference between experimental and control groups’ ability. In conclusion, the use of vertical and horizontal lines were not more effective in improving the students’ grammar skills than the conventional strategy. However, the strategy can be further developed and applied in teaching students with intermediate level.

Published: April 2023

The work carried out in this paper proposes an improvement of the direct torque control (DTC) of induction machine by the design of modern, robust and more efficient controllers than the conventional PI controllers commonly used for speed control. A comparative study has been carried out using five controllers, i.e. PI anti-windup, first-order sliding mode control (SMC), second order sliding mode control (SOSMC), fuzzy logic controller (Fuzzy-PI) and hybrid Fuzzy second-order sliding mode controller (FSOSMC). An advanced optimization technique based on the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm has been utilized to optimize all of these controllers, the use of PSO for the determination of the different gains used in all controllers gives on the one hand a high accuracy performance and ensures on the other hand a reliable comparison between the different controllers in their optimal states. The simulation and analysis of each method with respect to robustness to disturbances was performed externally under various operating conditions and variations of the machine parameters.

Published: April 2023

Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) is a hematologic malignancy associated to an unregulated growth of myeloid cells in Bone Marrow (BM) and Peripheral Blood (PB), characterized by the BCR-ABL1 translocation. Given the known cytokine impairment in the leukemic niche of CML, we investigated the impact of this microenvironmental dysregulation on Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILCs), whose role in cancer has recently emerged. Three ILC subsets are identified based on transcriptional profiles and cytokine secretion. We observed that IL-18 and VEGF-A are increased in CML patients’ sera and that ILC2s are enriched in CML PB and BM. We found that IL-18 drives ILC2 proliferation and that CML ILC2s highly express CXCR4 and CXCR7 BM-homing receptors, potentially explaining their enrichment in PB and BM, respectively. Next, we showed that ILC2s are hyper-activated through a tumor-derived VEGF-A-dependent mechanism, which leads to higher IL-13 secretion. In response to IL-13, leukemic cells increase their clonogenic capacity. Finally, we discovered that the pro-tumoral axis involving VEGF-A, IL-18 and ILC2s was disrupted upon Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors’ (TKIs) treatment, normalizing the levels of all these players in CML patients responding to therapy. Overall, our study uncovers the involvement of ILC2s in CML progression, mediated by VEGF-A and IL-18.

Clinical trials have shown that lentiviral-mediated gene therapy can ameliorate bone marrow failure (BMF) in nonconditioned Fanconi anemia (FA) patients resulting from the proliferative advantage of corrected FA hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC). However, it is not yet known if gene therapy can revert affected molecular pathways in diseased HSPC. Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed in chimeric populations of corrected and uncorrected HSPC co-existing in the BM of gene therapy-treated FA patients. Our study demonstrates that gene therapy reverts the transcriptional signature of FA HSPC, which then resemble the transcriptional program of healthy donor HSPC. This includes a down-regulated expression of TGF-β and p21, typically up-regulated in FA HSPC, and upregulation of DNA damage response and telomere maintenance pathways. Our results show for the first time the potential of gene therapy to rescue defects in the HSPC transcriptional program from patients with inherited diseases; in this case, in FA characterized by BMF and cancer predisposition.

Sustainability and Challenges of Arbitration in Administrative Contracts: the Concept and Approach in Saudi and Comparative Law
Authors: Shhadah Alhussein Hussein , Meskic Zlatan , Al-Rushoud Ahmad
Published: April 2023

Background. The arbitrability of administrative contracts contributes to sustainable dispute resolution within the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals 16 (SDG 16). However, different regulation of administrative contracts in comparative law affects the arbitrability of the disputes arising out of them. The question arises – is protection deserved if an administrative contract containing an arbitration clause concluded in violation of the administrative law of the governmental body or without a special approval is invalid, unenforceable, or if the company was unaware of such a requirement? This paper analyses the concept of an administrative contract and its arbitrability in Saudi Arabia and comparative law to provide for sustainable solutions. Methods. The analysis of the applicable arbitration and administrative laws and rules is conducted with the normative method to establish the arbitrability of the disputes arising out of administrative contracts and the concept of the administrative contract. The case analysis reveals if the legislative approach causes difficulties in practice. The dogmatic method is applied to link the reasons for legislative and case law development to the current normative solutions in comparative and Saudi law. The conclusions on the existing problems and possible solutions shall be based on the analytical method. Results and Conclusions. Government contracts are of great importance and their exclusion from arbitration contradicts the set goal of sustainable dispute resolution mechanism. Differences in comparative law in terms of the notion of the administrative contract and the arbitrability may diminish the positive effects of arbitration in administrative contracts, as they may endanger equal access to dispute resolution as part of the sustainable development goals, be enforceable, or even cause discrepancies between states that annul the arbitration awards and others that still enforce the awards despite their annulment.

This method of research was descriptive research with a qualitative and quantitative approach. The subjects of this study were students of class XI MIPA.1 MAN 1 Siak in the 2022/2023 academic year. The data collection technique used in this study was a questionnaire via Google Forms. Data on students collaboration and scientific communication skills perceptions were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results of data analysis for indicators of collaboration skills are 2.13 in the low category, and scientific communication skills indicators were 1.92 in the low category. From the results of the data analysis, it can be concluded that students initial perceptions of their collaboration and scientific communication skills are in a low category. It is because of students not being used to learning in groups in class due to the online learning process for approximately two years in a row. The lack of training in student collaboration skills results in low scientific communication skills. That is because the essential subjects taught in the emergency curriculum during the pandemic barely touched the real of scientific communication skills.

A aterosclerose é uma doença inflamatória crônica de origem multifatorial que ocorre em resposta à agressão endotelial, acometendo principalmente a camada íntima de artérias de médio e grande calibres. O diabetes mellitus tipo 2 está associado a uma alta taxa de doença cardiovascular aterosclerótica. Esse estudo visa analisar o impacto, pelo tratamento medicamentoso do Cilostazol, que é um medicamento antiplaquetário, na redução da espessura da artéria aorta de ratos induzidos a desenvolver o diabetes por meio da administração de estreptozotocina, comparando com um grupo controle sem diabetes. O estudo mostrou que o tempo que o rato levou para desenvolver o diabetes foi de 8 semanas, os ratos do grupo que foi administrado a estreptozotocina apresentaram significativo aumento da espessura arterial aórtica, principalmente na camada intimal da artéria. Foi observada uma redução na espessura da camada intima das artérias aorta dos ratos submetidos ao tratamento com cilostazol, com expressiva significância na comparação dos grupos com diabetes e até mesmo na comparação dos ratos que não foram induzidos ao diabetes, evidenciando que o cilostazol pode ser um gande aliado na prevenção da aterosclerose.

In Brazil, there is a great cultural and social diversity, which leads to the use of several natural products due to their ethnopharmacological properties, incluing honey. Honey is a nutrient-rich food that has several beneficial activities, such as: anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial and nematicidal actions. However, there are no studies regarding the nematicidal effect of honeys from Brazil. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the nematicidal action of honeys of Apis mellifera L. from orange, avocado, eucalyptus, multifloral and honey from Tetragonisca angustula species (known as Jataí) on Panagrellus sp. nematodes. In the nematicidal assays, solutions of these honeys were used in concentrations of 3; 1.5; 0.75 and 0.5% (w/v). The control group contained only distilled water. In assays with a concentration of 0.5% of avocado honey and T. angustula bee honey, a significant reduction was demonstrated, compared to the control group (respectively: 41.4% and 47.2%). The results obtained demonstrated, for the first time, that A. mellifera L. honey from avocado flowering and T. angustula honey showed significant nematicidal activity against juveniles of the free-living nematode model Panagrellus sp.  Therefore, further studies on the compositions of these honeys must be developed.
Studies in chemistry education under the perspective of the animal issue: a review on the international literature

Published: April 2023

Guided by the questioning about how issues related to animals are addressed in research aimed at teaching chemistry, we conducted a review in international journals in science, chemistry, education and animal ethics, seeking to identify a possible dialogue between the themes. Highlighting the novelty of these possible relations, the objective was to assemble a panoramic impression of it, assuming that inserting the animal theme in chemistry classes would improve learning, the development of values generally associated with a critical citizen, and would promote significant practices linked to the questioning of reality. In line with the themes of the works found, we built a theoretical basis on the issue between animal consumption and the future of the environment, followed by the methodology and analysis of the selected articles, divided into three categories: environmental chemistry as driving issue to construct scientific concepts, discussions on food and nutrition through a scientific view, and introduction of concepts, analysis and methods through food chemistry. The analyzed texts brought several aspects of the investigated relations, dealing with both food health and environmental problems. Along with that, they explored numerous pedagogical possibilities in order to raise awareness and make the teaching-learning process more attractive and effective. Among the conclusions, there is that animal ethics, through its various aspects, is either not contemplated or appears in a veiled way by publications in the area of chemistry education. We recognize that there is a long way to go in search of a new perception.

Introdução: O processo gestacional se caracteriza por diversas modificações físicas, psicológicas, emocionais e sociais na vida de uma mulher. O enfermeiro tem o papel de identificar os riscos potenciais, traçar os diagnósticos de enfermagem (DE) e planejar a sua assistência, disseminando as boas práticas de saúde em todos os cenários obstétricos. Objetivos: Identificar os diagnósticos de enfermagem em puérperas durante o período de internação na unidade de recuperação pós-anestésica (URPA) submetida à cesariana, Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo observacional, exploratório-descritivo, de abordagem quantitativa. A amostra foi composta por 47 gestantes que optaram pelo parto cesáreo, com idade ≥ 18 anos e usuárias do SUS. Resultados: Das 47 mulheres avaliadas, a média de idade foi de 30,1 ± 6,2 anos, de raça não branca (74,5%; n=35), casadas (55,3%; n=26), com 12 anos ou mais de estudo (42,6%; n=20), desempenham atividades remuneradas (61%; n=29) e reside em cidades circunvizinhas a Campina Grande (59,6%; n=28). Dos 12 DE elencados, nove foram evidenciados no estudo, sendo quatro deles mais prevalentes, como ansiedade (55,3%; n=26), náusea (38,3%; n=18), hipotermia (27,7%; n=13) e risco para aspiração (14,9%; n=7). Em todos os DE foi realizado assistência de enfermagem para a sua resolução. Conclusão: A ansiedade, náuseas, hipotermia e risco de aspiração foram os diagnósticos mais prevalentes no presente estudo. A assistência de enfermagem na URPA auxilia na redução da ocorrência de complicações pós-parto. No entanto, pode-se inferir que, falhas ocorrem nas etapas anteriores da assistência, havendo a necessidade de maior controle do estado emocional da gestante.

Published: April 2023

O câncer de colo é o terceiro câncer mais incidente entre as mulheres no Brasil, sendo o segundo mais incidente na região Norte e a primeira causa de mortalidade entre as mulheres da região (INCA 2022). Sendo diagnosticados na região norte do país com estadiamento avançados exigindo tratamentos complementares como a Hemodiálise. Considerando essas mulheres como seres humanos integrais e holísticos, segundo Wanda Horta teorista de enfermagem, com necessidades humanas básicas alteradas nas quais precisam ser assistidas pelo enfermeiro. Desta forma, o presente estudo tem como objetivo identificar na literatura cientifica não cinzenta quais as necessidades humanas básicas afetadas em pacientes em hemodiálise e identificar pacientes com câncer de colo uterino em hemodiálise. Sendo uma pesquisa qualitativa de uma revisão integrativa com abordagem exploratória. A coleta de dados foi realizada pelo Portal de Periódicos da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) e no banco de dados Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS). Sendo encontrados dez artigos, dividindo-se em quatro categorias: Necessidades Humanas Básicas; Diagnóstico de enfermagem; assistência de enfermagem e ao câncer de colo uterino e hemodiálise. Conclui-se que o estudo proporciona fundamentos que ajudarão a nortear as abordagens de futuras pesquisas e a prática do cuidado de enfermagem em hemodiálise baseado na teoria de Wanda Horta, e na realização da sistematização de enfermagem bem como estudos sobre pacientes com câncer de colo uterino em hemodiálise.
