Published: March 2024

The literature on Split-Thickness Skin Graft (STSG) donor site dressings has not yet identified an ideal dressing, and most products tested by researchers for wound dressing are prohibitively expensive in Low- and Middle-income settings. Clinical trials using biological dressings have offered an alternative option for managing STSG donor sites wound. The aim of this systematic review is to find evidences regarding the effectiveness of medicinal plants on STSG donor site wound healing. A total of 249 papers were identified in the initial search. After removing duplicates and applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 6 Randomized Clinical Trials were deemed relevant and included in the final review. Over twenty years four medicinal plants have entered clinical trial to enhance STSG donor site wound healing. The medicinal plants reviewed have large effect size regarding time to complete wound healing and wound score. However, the effect size of Aloe vera regarding time to complete wound healing and pain control vary from study to study. No patient quality of life was assessed neither cost-effectiveness of these products. Medicinal plants are potential cost effective antimicrobial and wound healing products for STSG donor site wound dressing. However, more clinical researches including patient quality of life among outcome measures are needed.

Background: Anatomical variations have been genetically linked and the phenomenon Morton's toe is no exception. Its prevalence has been a notable phenomenon in the medical field. This study investigated the prevalence of Morton's toe amongst the Kalabari tribe of Rivers State, Nigeria. Materials & Methods: A total of 446 participants were sampled for this study. Results & Discussions: The observed longer second toe pattern was described as present (both feet, right foot or left foot), while a shorter second toe was described as absent. Morton’s toe was more prevalent (65.9%) in the studied population than absent (34.1%); with males (34.7%) having slightly higher proportion of Morton's toe than females (31.2%), a little difference of 3.5% which was not so significant. The pattern of inheritance of Morton’s toe was without sex predisposition, with larger population exhibiting Morton’s toe. The male participants had a present to absent ratio of 3:1 indicating that for every three males who had Morton’s toe, one male around did not. The female participants had a present to absent ratio of 2:1 indicating that for every two females who had Morton’s toe, one female around did not have it. Conclusion: In the general population, the ratio for present to absent is 2:1, implying that for every two persons with Morton’s toe in the population, there is one person who does not have it. The study also observed bilateral symmetry (i.e., some individuals presented with Morton’s toe on both feet), while others had it on either the left or right foot.

The Genre and Trends of Crime Fiction in Nigeria
Authors: Olofinsao Minister Abiodun
Published: March 2024

The field of crime fiction in Nigeria remains under-explored in scholarly discourse. This lacuna is particularly notable given the absence of comprehensive academic works dedicated to this genre. Crime fiction, which delineates narratives surrounding criminals, their crimes, detection and investigation processes, and underlying motivations, has been a prolific subject in Nigerian creative literature. Despite the substantial body of Nigerian literary works delving into themes of crime, punishment, and motivation, it is intriguing that the genre has not garnered significant critical analysis. This study adopts a diachronic approach to trace the historical evolution of crime fiction in Nigeria. It further investigates various sub-genres within this literary category and examines how a multitude of socio-political dynamics have influenced the thematic focus of Nigerian crime fiction. The study posits that crime fiction is gaining relevance in contemporary Nigerian society. It reveals that a significant corpus of these narratives grapple with issues such as colonialism, militarism, corruption, government apathy towards human and national development, and other opaque political and economic elements that perpetuate Nigeria’s precarious journey towards democratic stability.

Published: March 2024

Background: Pregnant women with pre-existing diabetes face an elevated risk of congenital anomalies in their offspring. However, research on the pattern of congenital anomalies and its correlation with blood sugar control in pre-gestational diabetic mothers is limited, especially in our country's context. This study investigated the association between elevated HbA1c levels and congenital anomalies in diabetes-related pregnancies. Objective: To assess whether raised HbA1c levels were linked to an increased incidence of congenitally deformed fetal outcomes in pregnancies affected by diabetes. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted from August 2018 to September 2019 at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, DMCH. Women with pre-gestational diabetes were sequentially enrolled if they provided informed consent. Data, including HbA1c levels and anomaly scans, were collected at 18-24 weeks of gestation. Participants were divided into two groups based on HbA1c levels: Group-1 (elevated HbA1c) and Group-2 (normal HbA1c). Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 22, with significance at p<0.05. Result: The mean ages of Group 1 and Group 2 were 31.60±2.89 & 30.51±2.99 (SD) years. Both groups were similar concerning age, residence, education, occupation, economic status, and BMI (p>0.05 in all factors). Mean HbA1C (%) of Group-1 and Group-2 were 8.57±2.22 & 6.18±0.20 (p<0.001), respectively. Congenital anomalies were more frequent in Group 1 (15.6 vs 2.2; p<0.05), and it is associated with high blood sugar levels (p<0.001) and with a previous history of anomalous babies in preceding pregnancies. Conclusion: Elevated HbA1c levels are associated with an increased incidence of congenital anomalies in pregnancies complicated by diabetes. This underscores the importance of strict glycemic control in pregnant women with pre-gestational diabetes to mitigate the risk of adverse fetal outcomes. Further, population-based studies are desired to validate these findings and inform clinical management strategies.

Authors: Attar Neha Sadaf , Makandar Aarif , Ziaullah Mohammad , Fatima Saba , Patel Nyamatulla
Published: March 2024

The deteriorating condition of infrastructure, particularly bridges, poses significant challenges to public safety and necessitates the development of advanced monitoring systems for early detection of structural defects. This paper proposes a novel approach by integrating Internet of Things (IoT) technology with machine learning (ML) algorithms for real-time structural health monitoring, focusing on the detection of cracks in bridges. The proposed system employs a network of IoT sensors strategically deployed on the bridge structure to collect diverse data related to environmental conditions, strain, and vibrations. These sensors provide a continuous stream of data, creating a comprehensive dataset for analysis. Machine learning algorithms, specifically designed for anomaly detection, are applied to this dataset to identify patterns indicative of potential structural issues. This system is designed and implemented using ML and IoT. The excitation results shows that the designed system accuracy and efficiency of crack detection is improved and further enhance overall structural resilience. Furthermore, the integration of a real-time alerting mechanism allows for immediate notification of detected anomalies.

Authors: Başaran Serhat , Kaya Ali
Published: March 2024

Bu çalışmada Isaiah Berlin’in özgürlük anlayışı ve değer çoğulculuğu fikrinin klasik liberalizm ile olan ilişkisi ele alınmaktadır. Berlin’in özgürlük anlayışı, negatif ve pozitif özgürlük olmak üzere ikili bir yapı arz eder. Tarihsel olarak her iki özgürlük türünün de bağlamından saptırılabilmesinin olası olduğunu fakat pozitif özgürlüğün tekçi düşünce ile olan yakın ilişkisinden dolayı saptırılmasının daha olası olduğunu
belirtir. Berlin, pozitif özgürlüğün bu problemli tarafını yaşadığı yüzyıl olan yirminci yüzyılda görmüş olup negatif özgürlüğü yeğlemiştir. Pozitif özgürlüğe karşı değer çoğulculuğu fikrini geliştirmiştir. Fakat ortaya attığı değer çoğulculuğu fikrinin en önemli özelliği, değer çatışmalarına açık olması ve nihai bir sonucunun olmamasıdır. Bu makale, Berlin’in böylesi bir değer çoğulculuğu fikrine sahip olması dolayısıyla klasik liberalizm ile yaşadığı gerilimi ortaya çıkarmayı amaçlamaktadır.

This research aims to discuss the role of the Dutch East Indies Government in developing the Tanah Seribu area which is now known as Pontianak Kota District. Pontianak Kota District is currently the center of Pontianak City because of the infrastructure that the Dutch built. Dutch heritage buildings contain history that people have begun to forget due to the times. This research method uses a historical method which consists of five stages, namely topic selection, source collection, verification, interpretation and writing. The results of this research reveal the history of buildings left by the Indies government as evidence that the Dutch played a role in forming the center of Pontianak City. Several Dutch heritage buildings were very useful for the Pontianak City Government in the early days of Indonesian independence. Indonesia's unstable conditions do not allow the government to build facilities, so the City Government utilizes Dutch heritage buildings. Some of the buildings are still in use today, and have even become Pontianak City Cultural Heritage because they contain historical significance. This determination shows that the Dutch East Indies Government also left good things for Indonesia.

Fundamental analysis is carried out through the Top Down Analysis approach. This analysis is carried out sequentially starting from assessing the overall state of the economy, industry strength and company performance. Macroeconomic analysis is carried out by assessing the overall economic condition of a country such as GDP, interest rates, and exchange rates. Industry analysis assesses potential developments in industries related to companies, while company analysis uses financial ratio analysis which includes liquidity ratios, activity ratios, profitability ratios, solvency ratios, and market value. Macroeconomic analysis shows that there is an increase in GDP growth, a decrease in the BI-rate, and a depreciating rupiah exchange rate. The pharmaceutical industry in Indonesia has great opportunities when it comes to Indonesia's demographic conditions. Assessment of the company's financial performance results that the liquidity ratio has a value above the standard, which means the company has sufficient current assets to pay off its short-term obligations. The activity ratio based on the calculation results has a low inventory turnover. The profitability ratio has an increasing value which means the company is able to manage assets properly to earn a profit. The solvency ratio shows that the company is able to pay its long-term debt. Overall, in terms of market value, some ratios are good, but there is a decrease in dividend payments when viewed from dividend per share. However, this decline is not always bad because from the company's management point of view, a growing company will hold its profits to support future growth. The company reinvests its profits into the company so that the share price increases.

Sumber daya manusia merupakan salah satu aset terpenting yang memiliki dampak langsung terhadap suatu organisasi. Ada beberapa hal yang dapat mempengaruhi organisasi dalam mencapai kinerja karyawan yang berkualitas tinggi. Ini termasuk penerapan penghargaan dan hukuman dalam organisasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan dampak reward and punishment terhadap kinerja karyawan. Penghargaan dan hukuman penting untuk memotivasi kinerja karyawan karena melalui penghargaan dan hukuman, karyawan menjadi lebih berkualitas dan bertanggung jawab atas tugas yang diberikan. Reward dan punishment merupakan dua kata yang bertolak belakang, namun kedua hal tersebut berkaitan dengan kinerja karyawan di perusahaan. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada karyawan PT.Bintang Toedjoe dengan melakukan sampling terhadap 21 karyawan. Artinya pengambilan sample bahan menggunakan metode kuantitatif.  Temuan kami menunjukkan bahwa penghargaan dan hukuman memiliki efek positif yang signifikan. Reward berpengaruh positif, namun tidak semua signifikan terhadap kinerja karyawan. Artinya besar kecilnya reward yang diterima oleh karyawan tidak mempengruhi kinerja karyawan. Punishment berpengaruh positif, punishment signifikan terhadap kinerja karyawan. Artinya punishment yang diberikan kepada karyawan yang melanggar mampu mempengaruhi tinggi rendahnya sebuah kinerja yang dilakukan. Reward (X1), dan punishment (X2), secara bersama sama berpengaruh positif terhadap kinerja karyawan (Y). Artinya, semakin tepat pemberian reward dan punishment maka akan meningkatkan kinerja karyawan.
