Authors: Nandmehar Sarita , Wardana I Ketut , Wariati Ni Luh Gede
Published: January 2025

Background: Cremation tradition is one of the ritual practices that has deep meaning in Indian and Balinese culture. This study explores the cremation practices of Indians on the island of Bali, which reflect the intersection between their ancestral traditions and local Balinese customs. In the context of globalization and migration, this study is relevant to understanding the dynamics of cultural interaction and the sustainability of ritual identity in a multicultural society. This research aims to analyze how Indians in Bali carry out their cremation practices, adapting or maintaining traditional Indian elements within the framework of Balinese customs. Methods: The methodology used is qualitative with in-depth interview techniques, participatory observation, and document analysis. Data was collected from the Indian community living in Bali, Balinese traditional leaders, and religious leaders. Findings: The results show that the cremation practices of Indians in Bali are the result of a process of cultural adaptation and negotiation. Although the core rituals continue to reflect Indian traditions, many elements are integrated with Balinese customs, such as the use of cremation sites and the involvement of local communities. This outcome reflects a unique cultural harmony and the sustainability of the tradition amidst the dynamics of social change. Conclusions: This study concludes that the cremation practice of Indians in Bali serves not only as a spiritual ritual but also as a symbol of harmonious cultural interaction. Novelty/Originality of this article: The findings have important implications for cultural anthropology and intercultural studies and can serve as a reference in designing policies that support cultural diversity in a globalized society.

Published: January 2025

Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of ultrasound training, particularly e-FAST (extended-focused assessment with sonography for trauma), in enhancing the skills of medical students.

Methods: Conducted in a tertiary university hospital’s emergency department from February to March 2022, the study involved 30 volunteer students from each year of a 6-year medical program. Following ethics approval, participants underwent a pre-test, a 1-hour theoretical e-FAST training, a practical training, and a post-test. The Rasch model was employed for data analysis.

Results: Post-training, there was a notable improvement in students’ understanding of e-FAST, especially in the 2nd and 5th years, indicating significant learning gains. The Wright maps aligned participant abilities and item difficulty levels, confirming the training’s effectiveness. However, the study’s single-center nature and limited sample size are noted as limitations.

Conclusion: The study demonstrates that the e-FAST training model enhances medical students’ ultrasound skills. The findings support integrating ultrasound training into medical school curricula, particularly in later years, to improve diagnostic capabilities in future medical practitioners.
Consumer Trust, Confidence, and Price Sensitivity: Drivers of Engaged Consumption in Ethical Markets
Authors: Toukabri Maher , Shili Aicha
Published: January 2025

This study investigates the dynamics of engaged consumption in ethical markets, emphasizing the roles of consumer trust, confidence, expertise, and price sensitivity. As consumer behavior increasingly reflects ethical considerations, particularly in the food sector, understanding the gap between ethical intentions and purchasing behaviors becomes paramount. We explore how consumer trust influences the engaged consumption of local products, the moderating effect of expertise on trust, and the role of price sensitivity in ethical purchasing decisions. Through a survey of 320 respondents in Saudi Arabia, our findings reveal that emotional and social values significantly enhance consumer confidence, which mediates the relationship between perceived value and engaged consumption. However, functional and monetary values do not show significant effects. Additionally, price sensitivity moderates the confidence-engaged consumption relationship, indicating that more price-sensitive consumers may hesitate to act on their ethical intentions despite having confidence in a product's ethical claims. This research offers actionable insights for businesses aiming to promote local and ethical products effectively, thereby fostering a more engaged and ethically aware consumer base.

Fixed ‘Formative-Specific' Assessment Rubrics and ‘Formal’ Formative Assessment? What’s the point? Evolving formative assessment processes for a large-scale international student taught master’s Education module
Authors: Holmes Andrew , Minott Mark , Hopkins Paul
Published: January 2025

Assessment rubrics are a central component of developing students’ assessment literacy. They are usually used both for the summative assessment of learning, and, formatively, to develop students’ understanding of the standard of work required to be successful. The objective of this research was to evaluate the use of a ‘formative-specific’ assessment rubric designed for providing formative assessment feedback, and a distinct rubric designed for summative assessment. Data was collected through an online questionnaire and anecdotal conversations with colleagues and students. A total of 45 postgraduate students completed the questionnaire. The findings suggest that a ‘formative-specific’ assessment rubric contributes both to facilitating students’ understandings of the level and quality of work required for postgraduate study and to developing their assessment literacy. The data also shows that the students found the summative assessment rubric useful in progressing to their next assignments in their master’s level degree programme. More importantly, the study introduces the concept of a ‘fixed-formal’ formative assessment process.
Features of the Painting Technique of the Icon “St Nicholas the Wonderworker, with the Scenes of His Life” from Matigory: The Restorer’s View
Authors: Пейчев Д.Г.
Published: January 2025

Десятилетия кропотливого изучения техники древней иконописи и совершенствующиеся методики ее раскрытия позволяют нам по-новому взглянуть на памятники, ранее считавшиеся утраченными и не подлежащими реставрации. Одной из таких икон является образ святого Николая Чудотворца с житием из села Матигоры. Памятник многократно переписан и значительно утрачен в процессе своего бытования, но сохранные участки древней живописи помогают пролить свет на многие особенности иконописи XIII–XIV вв.

Decades of laborious study of the technique of ancient icon painting and the improving methods of its disclosure allow us to take a fresh look at icons, that were previously considered lost and unsuitable for restoration. One of these icons is the image of “St Nicholas the Wonderworker, with the scenes of his life” of Matigory. The monument has been overpainted many times, and significantly lost in the course of its existence but preserved sections of ancient painting help shed light on many features of icon painting of the 13th–14th centuries.
Conclusion of a Preliminary Research of the Icon Named “St Nicholas the Wonderworker, with the Scenes of His Life” from Village Matigory in the Collection of The Russian Museum
Authors: Антропова И.А. , Пейчев Д.Г.
Published: January 2025

В 1965 г. в Русский музей поступила икона «Св. Николай Чудотворец». Пробные реставрационные раскрытия, начатые в том же году, показали, что под видимой записью XIX в. находится более ранняя живопись (предположительно XIV в.), также стало понятно, что первоначально икона была житийной. Сильно загрязненный покровный лак и сложное раскрытие, вызванное плохой сохранностью нижележащих слоев и большим количеством записей с перегрунтовками, не позволяли выявить ни иконографические, ни технологические особенности памятника. Реставрация последних лет и современные методы исследования дают возможность более детально изучить икону и высказать предположения еще до ее полного раскрытия.

In 1965, the Russian Museum received the icon named “St Nicholas the Wonderworker, with the Scenes of His Life”. In the same year, restoration of the icon began and showed that under the visible cover of the 19th century there was an earlier painting (presumably from the 14th century). It also became clear that the icon was originally hagiographic. The heavily soiled cover-varnish, complex exposure caused by the poor preservation of the underlying layers, and the large number of records with overpriming made it impossible to reveal either the iconographic or stylistic features of the icon. Subsequent restoration in recent years and modern methods of research make it possible to study the icon in more detail and make reasonable assumptions even before full and final disclosure of findings.

Background: Chronic pain is a complex and multifaceted condition influenced by psychological, social, and biological factors. It poses significant challenges to individuals, often leading to stigma and inadequate management. Addressing chronic pain requires a comprehensive understanding of its determinants and the integration of multidisciplinary approaches to optimize patient outcomes. Methods: This review involved a non-systematic evaluation of both foundational and contemporary literature regarding the management of chronic non-malignant pain. A literature search was conducted across various databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and MEDLINE, focusing on studies published in English from 2018 to 2023. Keywords related to chronic pain, therapeutic methodologies, and multidisciplinary care were employed. Results: Findings indicate that a biopsychosocial model significantly enhances chronic pain management by incorporating medical, psychological, and social interventions. Evidence suggests that cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and psychosocial treatments are effective in alleviating chronic pain and improving patient quality of life. Furthermore, multidisciplinary care involving collaboration among healthcare providers leads to better management outcomes and reduced healthcare costs. Conclusion: The effective management of chronic pain necessitates a multidisciplinary approach that considers the diverse influences on pain perception and experience. Future research should focus on refining these integrative strategies and clarifying the roles of various healthcare professionals in chronic pain management. By adopting a holistic perspective, healthcare systems can enhance the quality of care provided to individuals suffering from chronic pain.

Published: January 2025

Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) is an eye disorder caused by excessive screen time, which has become increasingly unavoidable in the digital era, particularly among medical students. This study aimed to determine the characteristics of CVS incidence among medical students of Baiturrahmah University, batch of 2023. Employing a descriptive approach, the study included 73 students selected using a purposive sampling technique, with univariate data analysis conducted through the SPSS program. The results revealed that 51 respondents (69.9%) were female, with 59 respondents (80.8%) using more than two devices daily. All respondents (100%) reported daily monitor usage exceeding four hours, categorized as unsafe screen time, and 62 respondents (84.9%) maintained an unsafe viewing distance from their monitors. Despite these findings, the majority of respondents (95.9%) did not experience CVS symptoms based on CVS-Q scores. These results suggest that while prolonged screen time and unsafe device usage are prevalent, they do not necessarily correlate with CVS incidence in this population

Mushroom Production Using Banana Leaves, Rice Straw, and Cogon in Urban and Rural Negros Oriental
Authors: Galon Francis
Published: January 2025

This study investigated the effectiveness of three substrates—dried rice straw, dried banana leaves, and dried cogon leaves—in optimizing mushroom yield under varying environmental conditions. The need for food self-sufficiency was never a genuine concern when the pandemic hit, highlighting the importance of producing food in one's yard. Mushrooms, particularly Volvariella volvacea, represent a viable option. Dried rice straw is an effective and eco-friendly substrate for mushroom cultivation, especially in rice-producing regions. Its high cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin content provide essential nutrients, making it well-suited for mushroom production. Dried banana leaves are a practical and sustainable substrate option for mushroom cultivation, particularly in tropical regions where bananas are widely grown. Like dried rice straws, they also contain cellulose and lignin. Cogon grass, an invasive plant in many regions, is increasingly used as a mushroom substrate due to its abundance, low cost, and lignocellulosic content. Rich in cellulose and hemicellulose, it provides essential nutrients for mushroom production. Farmers from selected urban and rural areas participated in the study, cultivating mushrooms using the three substrates. Data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at the 5% and 1% significance levels. The result indicated no significant differences in yield among the three substrates at either significance level. However, dried rice straw consistently yielded the highest total and mean outputs, followed by dried banana leaves, while dried cogon leaves produced the least. This trend was observed across all locations and environmental conditions. The results suggest that rice straw is the most effective substrate for Volvariella volvacea cultivation. Given its consistent performance across various conditions, rice straw is recommended for farmers aiming to optimize mushroom yields. Future research should explore optimizing substrate combinations, supplementations, and refining cultivation techniques to enhance production, ensuring the continued development of mushroom cultivation practices.

This article analyzes the use of SDS-PAGE and mass spectrometry techniques in the identification of potential candidates for protein biomarkers in saliva and oral mucosa for the early diagnosis of oral cancer, identifying and comparing the protein profiles of the samples, seeking less invasive alternatives for diagnosis. The research is based on the relevance of less invasive and easy-to-apply methods to reduce mortality associated with squamous cell carcinoma, which is predominantly among tumors of the oral cavity. Through a literature review, studies published between 2004 and 2024 were selected, which used both techniques for proteomic analysis in saliva and tissue samples. The results revealed the identification of 385 proteins, 24 of which were shared between the samples demonstrated, highlighting fundamental differences in the protein profiles common to both biological matrices, with emphasis on proteins such as Annexin A1, Hemopexin, Histone 1, Peroxiredoxins 1 and 2, and Keratins 1, 4 and 10, Tubulin, were identified as promising candidates for biomarkers due to their role associated with tumor processes. Saliva, despite having less protein diversity, showed promise as a source of biomarkers. The findings reinforce the role of “proteomics” in improving the diagnosis of oral cancer and highlight the need for methodological standardization to increase the sensitivity and specificity of analyses. It is concluded that the study can contribute to the identification of potential candidates for biomarkers in SCC, which can assist in the development of diagnostic and prognostic tools, transform clinical practices and promote greater patient survival.

Published: January 2025

Background: Caesarean section (CS) is the most common major obstetric procedure. Research towards improving its safety and cost-effectiveness is imperative. This study aimed to evaluate an ultrashort-stay post-caesarean section management protocol (USPCP) on eligible patients at a teaching hospital in Ondo state.
Methodology: This is a prospective study conducted over a nine-month period involving 28 consecutive patients who underwent routine CS and were subjected to USPCP. Data obtained included obstetric characteristics inputted into an Excel spreadsheet for analysis. The USPCP was implemented for each patient from the 6th hour post-op to achieve a visual analogue pain score of ≤ 3, normal dietary intake, full ambulation and breastfeeding capabilities within 12 to 24 hours. Thereafter, wound inspections were conducted on an outpatient basis by the 6th day post-op.
Results: Patients that underwent elective CS accounted for 82% of total number. The mean gestational age (in weeks), surgery duration (minutes), blood loss (ml) and postop stay (hours) were 37.8, 38.7, 610.7 and 32.5, respectively. All but one patient had satisfactory wound healing while another was lost to follow-up.

Tumor metastases are very rare causes of jaw lesions. Previous reports have indicated occurrence in one or more quadrants, but metastatic lesions in all four quadrants are exceptionally rare. This study aimed to report an unusual presentation of metastatic carcinoma, in which metastatic deposits from the breast were found on the four quadrants of the jawbones. We present an unusual case of metastatic lesion from the breast to the mandible and maxilla bilaterally in a 46-year-old woman. The patient was admitted to a previous treatment of breast cancer only after several promptings. The clinical and microscopic features of the jaw lesions and the microscopic features of the breast lesion are presented with a review of the pertinent literature.

The catheter associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) are gaining much attraction due to their high rate of morbidity and mortality. Therefore, urgent for alternative antimicrobial agent to fight against CAUTI. However, in the study Gymnema sylvestre methanolic crude extracts antimicrobial activity and antibiofilm activity were investigated against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis and Candid albicans. The antimicrobial activity was studied through agar diffusion method which showed potent antimicrobial activity against test pathogens. The very minimal inhibitory concentrations of G. sylvestre methanolic crude extract was detected using micro dilution method and exhibited 1 mg/ml was required for S. aureus, E. coli, E. faecalis inhibition and 2 mg/ml against C. albicans. Moreover, the anti-biofilm activity was quantified through crystal violet assay wherein the G. sylvestre methanolic crude extract effectively inhibited the test pathogens biofilm formation upto their MIC level. Also, the effect of G. sylvestre methanolic crude extract was investigated on test pathogens mature biofilms and efficiently eradicated the 85%, 88%, 81% and 84% of S. aureus, E. faecalis, E. coli and C. albicans biofilms correspondingly. The G. sylvestre methanolic crude extract coated catheter tube antimicrobial activity was studied through in vitro bladder model and exposed potent activity against test pathogens. The G. sylvestre methanolic crude extract antioxidant property was studied and the extract was not revealed any cytotoxic effect to normal cells. Altogether, the antimicrobial and anti-biofilm activity of G. sylvestre methanolic crude extract suggested that it can be an alternative agent for CAUTI treatment.
