Published: August 2022

This article examines the legal and organizational issues of the role of universities in the development of regions.   The purpose of the study is to determine the models of cooperation between universities in the development of regions.   Methodology. In the course of the study, logical and formal-legal methods of analysis of individual regulatory legal acts of the Republic of Kazakhstan were used. The legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan regulating the issues of strategic planning, ownership of universities as legal entities, missions of universities and achievement of the stated goals, the organizational and legal form of universities, corporate governance bodies, requirements for members of the board of directors of universities were studied. Along with this, this study is based on international publications in the fi eld of higher education management, the place of development strategy in achieving sustainable development goals.   Originality / value of research. We built our research on the analysis of the best universities in Kazakhstan according to the results of the IQAA-2020 ratings, since it was these universities that showed good practice of interaction with the regions. Along with this, the strengths and weaknesses of such interaction were identified to determine the further development path.   Findings. The research has shown that many Kazakhstani universities do not quite clearly understand the role of universities in the development of regions and the performance of a social function. The lack of a clear understanding of the function assigned to the university by the society leads to the fact that universities do not see key priorities in such cooperation. The study made it possible to draw some conclusions and develop recommendations that are important for continuing eff orts in this direction. Universities should view this interaction as an important, strategic direction for their work and build on established practices.

Authors: Niang Mouhamadou Mansour , Samb Fatou , Cisse Cheikh Tidiane
Published: August 2022

Subacute non-puerperal uterine inversion is an extremely rare clinical situation that constitutes a medico-surgical emergency that can be life-threatening for women due to the risk of bleeding. We report the case of a 45 years-old patient, second parous received urgently with hemorrhagic shock. The clinical examination confirmed the diagnosis of uterine inversion secondary to a fundic myoma type 0 delivered through the cervix. Resuscitation was carried out followed by surgical management by a mixed vaginal and abdominal approach to perform a hysterectomy. Through this clinical case, we recall the epidemiological aspects of this pathology as well as the diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties.

Objectives: To describe the socio-demographic characteristics of the patients, to analyze the evolution of the approach, the indications, the characteristics of the procedure (type of anesthesia, surgical procedure, per and postoperative complications, associated gestures, blood transfusion And duration of hospitalization) according to the approach and to specify the results of the hysterectomy for benign utero-adnexal lesions. Materials and methods: This was a retrospective, descriptive and analytical study of the hysterectomies performed for benign utero-adnexal lesions at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the Ouakam Military Hospital over a period of 11 years from 1st January 2006 to December 31st, 2016. Results: During the study period, we performed 392 hysterectomies among the 5,578 programmed gynecological surgeries, ie a frequency of 7%. There were 153 hysterectomies per laparotomy (39.03%), 222 vaginal hysterectomies (56.63%) and 17 coelio-prepared hysterectomies (4.3%). Between 2006 and 2016, laparotomy, vaginal and coelio-prepared hysterectomies rates increased from 76.9% to 23.1%, 39% to 56.6%, and 0 to 4.3%, respectively. Patients were aged 51.8 years (37-83 years) with an average parity of 5 (0-14). Indications were dominated by uterine fibroids (71.2%) in the laparotomy group, severe cervical dysplasia (36.9%) and uterine fibroids (28.8%) in the vaginal Benign endometrial disease (35.3%) and uterine fibroid disease (29.4%) in the "coelio-prepared" group. We performed 346 total interannexual hysterectomies (88.3%) and 46 total hysterectomies with bilateral adnexectomy (11.7%). The procedure was mostly spinal anesthesia (79.8%) and lasted an average of 89 minutes (45-215 minutes). The mean hemoglobin was 13.1 g/dL preoperatively and 11.1 g/dL postoperatively, a difference of 2g/dL on average. We recorded 11 intraoperative complications (2.8%). There were 6 severe haemorrhages, 3 digestive wounds and 2 bladder wounds. The duration of hospitalization was on average 4 days [2-7] and the follow-up was mostly simple (97.7%). Conclusion: This study on hysterectomies at the Military Hospital of Ouakam showed that the rate of laparotomy hysterectomies had decreased over the past decade in favor of vaginal and coelio-prepared hysterectomies. The indications for this procedure were dominated by uterine myomatosis and severe cervical dysplasia, and intraoperative complications, dominated by haemorrhages, were globally rare.
The Acquisition of Italian Stops by Igbo Speakers
Authors: Sorianello Patrizia
Published: August 2022

This research explored the acquisition of Italian singleton stops by Igbo speakers. The voiceless and voiced stop phonemes /p t k/ and /b d g/ are present in both Italian and in the Igbo languages. This creates a perfect condition to check the learning strategies implemented in Italian L2. The theoretical framework taken up in this study was the Speech Learning Model. According to this approach, the sounds of L2 can be perceived by learners as the same, similar or as new compared to those present in their L1, depending on the greater or lesser acoustic and perceptive distance established between them. A spectro-acoustic analysis achieved on the stops produced by Igbo learners of Italian showed the presence of sound categories with a different acoustic structure. In Italian L2 stops have undergone an important phonetic adaptation that makes them perceptually different from what is achieved by native Italians.

Authors: 黃鈺雯 黃鈺雯 , 王世景 王世景
Published: August 2022

軍事工程為國防發展之關鍵,其規劃設計、招標作業及採購策略對工程品質都扮演關鍵、重要的角色,工程之管理概分為工程規劃設計、施工及維護管理等階段,影響品質之原因除前述各階段未落實管理外,另決標原則之擇定及低價搶標亦是造成品質低落之重要原因。

現行軍事機關招標多以最低價決標為主,此種決標策略無疑造成廠商在面對營建市場的競爭壓力下,採取之低價搶標之行為;另就本外島於地理環境、產業發展、人文、歷史、生活型態及經濟條件等截然不同的情況下,於採購招標上具有不同特性,採購效率亦相異。

為提升軍事工程採購效益,本文以數據統計分析、了解在不同履約區域下,市場競爭特性、廠商規模差異及決標原則之影響,為機關辦理工程採購提供適當的預防與處置作為,以提升採購品質,進而確保機關權益。

Objective: To compare the toxicity, response rate, and survival of concurrent chemo radiotherapy and induction chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy alone in squamous cell cervical cancer patients. Place and duration of study: Radiation Oncology Department of Nishtar Hospital for 1 year Study design: A comparative retrospective study Methodology: A total of 60 women were included in the study who have been diagnosed with stage IB2 to stage IIIB squamous cell cervical carcinoma. After passing the inclusion and exclusion criteria, patients were divided into two groups, a concurrent chemo radiotherapy group (30 patients) and a radiotherapy group (30 patients) by consecutive data sampling. All the patients were subject to external beam radiotherapy to the 45 Gy to whole pelvis with 15 MV X-rays 5 days/week by using the four-field technique. The patients in the radiotherapy group were given induction chemotherapy with cisplatin 50 mg/m2 every 21 days with paclitexal 175mg/m2 (2 cycles) followed by radiotherapy alone. For the patients of concurrent chemo radiotherapy, patients were administered 40 mg/m2 cisplatin weekly with radiations for 5 cycles. Results: The overall response rate for CCRT group and RT group was 65% (n=30) and 50% (n=30) respectively. The overall survival rate was 12 months and 8 months for the CCRT group and RT group respectively. Similarly, relapse-free survival was 10 months in CCRT patients and 6 months in RT patients. The rate of hematological toxicities was more in CCRT patients. The most common adverse effect was diarrhea with 3 (10%) patients in the CCRT and 2 (6.6%) patients in the RT group. No deaths occurred due to treatment. Conclusion: The efficacy and toxicity of CCRT show promising results in squamous cell cervical carcinoma patients as compared to induction chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy treatment alone.

Published: August 2022

Aim: To evaluate the advantages/benefits of a single cosmetic incision approach for the repair of bilateral inguinal hernia in children. Study design: A cross-sectional study Place and Duration of study: Pediatric surgery department, Liaquat University of Medical & Health Sciences Jamshoro from February 2017 and June 2022 Methodology: Bilateral inguinal herniorrhaphies were performed on a total of 178 children and infants who received treatment in succession. A single, transverse, 2.5-cm long suprapubic incision was performed in 89 (50%) of the patients, and the Scarpa fascia was punctured using cautery. The external ring was located and opened after retracting the wound, and the ilioinguinal nerve was safeguarded. After testicular vascular and sac separation from vas deference, the hernial sac is delicately Trans ligated with 3-0 Vicryl (Ethicon), closed was the external oblique aponeurosis. The wound was then retracted to the opposite side and treated there using the same technique. Results: Ages ranged from 3 months to 11 years at the time of operation (average, 29.8 months). 56.93% of the patients—96—were under the age of one, with 51 of them—28.65%—being under the age of six months. 48 patients were 1 to 5 years old, and 24 were over the age of 5. The average operating time was 8–10 minutes shorter than it had been in the past for children who had undergone bilateral inguinal incisions, which typically took 30–40 minutes. The visual look and overall outcomes have pleased the patients and parents. There haven't been any recurrences so yet. Conclusion: In order to improve therapeutic impact and lower the risk of complications and recurrence, we develop a single incision method for bilateral inguinal herniorrhaphies. Depending on the availability of a paediatric surgeon with the necessary experience and skills, a single incision technique for treating a child's bilateral inguinal hernia is practical, safe, and can be provided to patients.

Published: August 2022

The data for this study was collected from two universities in Pakistan and North Cyprus. The researchers selected University of Agriculture Faisalabad in Pakistan and Cyprus international university in North Cyprus (Turkey). There is no right or wrong with smoking. On a busy day, navigating a lecture hall with smoke practically pouring out in all directions could cause some psychological damage. For some people, this is sufficient justification for subpar performance; for everyone, it is a sure sign of a limited life span. Unfortunately, foreigners who up until this point had not smoked actively or passively may experience a more significant cultural shock in a place where unrestricted smoking is a part of life. The possible impacts of smoking on students' academic performance at Cyprus International University and University of Agriculture Faisalabad are clarified by this study. By advocating the establishment of smoking zones for improved outdoor air quality in the institution, findings, and recommendations are generated using data gathered for quantitative empirical research.

Jerarquías diocesanas y clero regular en el proceso de reforma eclesiástica (Río Cuarto, 1935-1948)
Authors: Camaño Semprini Rebeca Raquel
Published: August 2022

Con el propósito de reforzar y consolidar sus estructuras institucionales, la Iglesia católica emprendió desde mediados del siglo XIX un conjunto de medidas tendientes a centralizar y efectivizar la autoridad jerárquica sobre el clero y los católicos. Se destacó aquella que buscaba una adecuación de la estructura eclesiástica a la administrativa de los Estados y una mayor eficacia en el gobierno eclesiástico sobre los territorios. En consonancia con estas directivas vaticanas, a mediados de la década de 1930 la Iglesia argentina reformó su organización territorial y administrativa con la creación de nuevas diócesis y la elevación de algunas de las ya presentes a arquidiócesis. Aunque existe un amplio consenso en torno al carácter complejo y multimensional de estos procesos, no necesariamente ha implicado una proporcional proliferación de estudios que profundicen en su reconstrucción dentro de las distintas jurisdicciones diocesanas. En este sentido, en el presente trabajo nos proponemos analizar, desde una escala reducida, la implementación de estrategias tendientes a materializar la presencia de las jerarquías sobre los noveles territorios e imponer su autoridad al clero que le estaba subordinado. Centramos entonces nuestro análisis en las maniobras realizadas por el primer obispo de la diócesis de Río Cuarto, monseñor Leopoldo Buteler, en particular aquellas destinadas a diluir, absorber y/o reemplazar los lazos que tradicionalmente habían unido a la orden franciscana con la elite local, dando cuenta también de los distintos tipos de resistencias ensayados frente al avance del obispado y de cómo ambos se encontraron en estrecha vinculación con la vida política.
The Role of Divine Retribution in the Twelfth-Century Lives of Saint Winefride
Authors: López Sabatel José Antonio
Published: August 2022

We tend to think of the saints as miracle workers and credit them with offering useful services and assistance to the faithful - in particular, healing the sick and even raising the dead (often associated with pilgrimage sites - churches, relics/reliquaries, and holy wells), but many miracles involve punishments (often associated with disrespecting the saint, stealing church property or trespassing on the saint's burial ground or sanctuary). To a modern audience, some of these miracles might appear harsh, but from the point of view of the hagiographer these punishments were fully justified and, of course, there were many biblical precedents. The following lines will try to elucidate the role that was given to Saint Winefride as a vessel for divine justice.  For this purpose, the two twelfth-century Vitae dedicated to this Welsh saint will be analysed for parallels with the Sacred Scriptures and other hagiographical motifs. This information will be put into the historical context of this period without forgetting to highlight the deep-rooted tradition of the Celtic countries. It will also be determined to what extent the role and function of miracles illustrating divine retribution may be linked with the ecclesiastical interests of the time

Published: August 2022

A laranja é um alimento fonte de vitamina C, vitamina que atua em diversas funções no organismo humano e necessita de consumo diário. O seu consumo na forma de suco, está sujeito a degradação do ácido ascórbico no processo. O presente estudo buscou analisar se há relação entre a degradação da vitamina C e a cor do suco ao longo do tempo e se há interferência da temperatura de armazenamento neste processo. Para a análise da concentração de vitamina C foi utilizado o método de titulação iodométrica e na análise da cor do suco foi utilizado o site Adobe Color para leitura L*a*b* das fotos tiradas no Laboratório de Ciências da Saúde do Centro Universitário de Brasília (CEUB). As análises foram realizadas em três tempos e em duas temperaturas. Observou-se uma relação direta de proteção da degradação da vitamina C na temperatura refrigerada já que o ácido ascórbico do suco em temperatura ambiente sofreu uma queda maior ao longo do tempo, além disso, há perda significativa da vitamina após 12 horas de extração do suco em ambas as temperaturas demonstrado pelo valor de p < 0,05 - método ANOVA two way. Entretanto, não foi encontrada relação direta entre a degradação da vitamina C e o escurecimento do suco apesar do suco sofrer alteração da cor ao longo do tempo analisado.

Alimentação saudável e de qualidade é requisito básico para o desenvolvimento físico e intelectual dos seres humanos. Foram realizadas análises microbiológicas nos seguintes alimentos: vegetais, fubá, panificados e melados, visando verificar a presença de patógenos e indicadores de deterioração nos alimentos comercializados com maior frequência em uma cooperativa para as instituições de ensino CMEIS, APAE e escolas municipais em um município na região do Sudoeste do Paraná. Para avaliar as condições higiênico sanitárias nos ambientes em que o alimento veicula, foi aplicado um questionário aos produtores e manipuladores, um checklist na cooperativa e observação visual nestes locais de processamento dos alimentos. Dentre estes alimentos, 90% apresentaram pelo menos uma amostra contaminada com os parâmetros pesquisados. A implantação de um Manual de Boas Práticas para o produtor e os trabalhadores da cooperativa é fundamental para que ocorra a produção e comercialização de alimentos saudáveis e que não apresentem riscos de contaminação à saúde dos consumidores.

Authors: Hussein Yasser Ismail , Hassan Karima Abdelaty , EL-Nahass Bassem Galal Eldin
Published: August 2022

Background: The sacroiliac joint (SIJ) has been long considered an important source of low back pain because its prevalence varies from 10% to 30% with axial low back pain. Several manual techniques were used in SIJ dysfunction (SIJD) treatment as manipulation, muscle energy technique (MET), strain-counterstrain (SCS), and mobilization. However, there is little evidence about the efficacy of MET and SCS have been reported. Design: Randomized controlled trial. Setting: Evaluation and treatment were taken at Warraq Central hospital and El-Sahel hospital in the Giza governorate, Egypt. Purpose: Examine the effect of (SCS) versus (MET) on pain pressure threshold (PPT), functional disability, and the innominate angle tilt with SIJ dysfunction. Methods: Fifty-six patients with SIJD were recruited and randomly assigned to receive treatment with either SCS or MET. The outcomes were PPT by Pressure algometer and functional disability by Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and the innominate angle tilt by Palpation Meter (PALM). All outcomes were assessed at pre and post intervention and frequency of treatment was 3 sessions/week for 4 weeks.

Introduction: Dengue fever is the most common cause of arboviral disease. Dengue fever presents with confusing clinical profile and dengue is diagnosed by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Hematological parameters like platelet count, hematocrit, leucocyte count and peripheral smear findings will aid in the diagnosis of dengue fever whereas malaria which is responsible for Leukemia, anemia and thrombocytopenia. Method: Total number of cases was 138. Out of which 121 Dengue IgM positive cases and for Malaria 107 rapid card test positive and smear positive cases were selected. period of 1 year. Jan 2020 to Sep 2021. Result:   dengue incidence is 66.10% up to 30yrs of age group, where as in Malaria incidence is 60.90%. Dengue is more common in females(64.50)% than Males(35.50%) as compared to malaria. Reduction in RBC count less than 4 million is more common in malaria (48.76) than dengue (48.76%). anemia is more common in malaria(74.76%) compared to dengue(46.23%). Conclusion: Raised hematocrit, thrombocytopenia, leucopenia, and atypical lymphocytes in the peripheral smear will aid in the early diagnosis of dengue infection. Hematological changes and their diagnostic values in malaria infected patients found out that hemoglobin levels, white blood cell counts, and platelet counts were significantly reduced.

Published: August 2022

Research dealing with various aspects of theory of Hexaco, theory of planned behavior, tawakal and religiosity are reviewed, and some unresolved issues are discussed in coping of COVID 19 disease in Malaysia. In broad terms, the theory is found to be well supported by empirical evidence. Intentions to perform behaviors of different kinds can be predicted with high accuracy from attitudes toward the behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control; and these intentions, together with perceptions of behavioral control, account for considerable variance in actual behavior with religiosity aspect. Theory of Hexaco, attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control, religiosity and tawakal are shown to be related to appropriate sets of salient behavioral, normative, and control beliefs about the behavior, but the exact nature of these relations is still uncertain. Expectancy. value formulations are found to be only partly successful in dealing with these relations. Optimal rescaling of expectancy and value measures is offered as a means of dealing with measurement limitations. Finally, inclusion of past behavior in the prediction equation is shown to provide a means of testing the theorys sufficiency, another issue that remains unresolved.

Green supply chain management (GSCM) practices are cross-organizational and closed-loop. They aim to reduce the ecological impact of the firm’s activity without sacrificing quality, cost, reliability, performance, or energy utilisation efficiency. This study presents empirical evidence to encourage firms to implement GSCM practices, which may enhance their competitive advantages. This study attempts to contribute to the growing research on GSCM practices—namely internal environmental management, green purchasing, eco-design and packaging, investment recovery, and cooperation with customers—and their effects on competitive advantages using a sample of 258 ISO 14001-certified manufacturing firms in Malaysia. A partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) analysis showed the direct effects of green purchasing, eco-design and packaging, investment recovery, and cooperation with customers directly on competitive advantages. However, internal environmental management did not relate to competitive advantages. Suggestions for future research are proposed. The study confirms the positive effects of GSCM practices on the competitive advantages of firms in the Malaysian manufacturing industry.

Pathogenesis of neurological diseases is associated with free-radical-mediated inflammatory processes. Phenolic compounds, saponin, and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) are nutraceuticals with neuroprotective properties. Lentinus squarrosulus is a mushroom with high proteins low calories, and nutraceuticals. This research aimed to investigate the nutraceutical contents of total phenolic compounds, saponins, γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), and antioxidant activity in this mushroom after drying and frying for snack production. The nutraceutical contents and antioxidant activity were measured by Folin–Ciocalteu method and 2,2-diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay, respectively. The stability of these nutraceuticals was also determined after drying and deep frying mushrooms in preparation for snack production. Results showed that the mushrooms after drying at 50 and 60 °C until the moisture content was below 12 % (according to Thai Community Products Standard) had water activity (aW) of 0.52 to 0.59. The dried mushrooms had lower lightness, redness, and yellowness with the increased drying temperature (p ≤ 0.05). The total phenolic content of dried mushrooms was not significantly different from that of fresh mushrooms, but saponin, GABA, and antioxidant activity were higher than in the fresh samples.

Published: August 2022

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common disease that affects the knee joint in particular. Exercises, pulsed ultrasound therapy, and pulsed electromagnetic fields are all useful in treating patients with knee OA, however there is controversy in the research about which is more effective in treating patients with knee OA. Purpose: to see if adding PEMF to PUST will help reduce pain, improve function, and increase knee (ROM) in those with knee OA. Materials and Methods: Eighty patients, 45–55 years old, from both genders, had moderate unilateral knee OA. The VAS was used to measure pain, the WOMAC Index was used to assess health status and health outcomes for knee OA patients, the Timed Up and Go test and the 10 meter walk test were used to assess patients’ functional mobility, and the Electronic Goniometer was used to examine knee joint ROM. They were put into one of four groups: 1, 2, 3, or 4. PUST plus exercise therapy was given to group (1), PEMF plus exercise treatment was given to group (2), PEMF, PUST plus exercise treatment was given to group (3), and sham PEMF, sham PUST plus exercise treatment was given to group (4).

This paper aims to determine the relationship between self-compassion and religiosity in COVID 19 pandemic. Appreciation of religion (at-tadayyun) or religiosity is an important aspect in a person’s life as it has a major influence on behaviour, practices and personality. Self-compassion is an individual’s self-perception that can help understand and persuade oneself with positive words when facing difficult times in life or when committing a transgression by not trying extreme self-criticism and admitting that all that happens is part of a good experience in life.  The hypothesis in this study states that there is a positive relationship between self-compassion, Theory of Planned Behaviour and religiosity. This shows that there is a positive and significant relationship between self-compassion, Theory of Planned Behaviour and religiosity when facing the COVID 19 pandemic. This indicates that the higher the self-compassion, the higher the religiosity when facing the COVID 19 pandemic.
