Collateral after Splenic Vein Thrombosis
Authors: Maurer Martin , De Gottardi Andrea
Published: May 2024

A 46-year-old man presented to the emergency department because of relapsing abdominal pain in the left abdominal quadrants. At admission, he was in good general condition and his vital signs were normal. The only abnormal laboratory findings were a C-reactive protein of 30 mg/L and thrombocytes of 127 G/L. An abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan showed a thrombosis of the distal splenic vein (panel A, double arrow) with the presence of a superior and an inferior spleno-mesenteric collateral (panel A, asterisks). The axial CT scan (panel V, arrows) and Doppler sonography (panel C)  showed that the thick collaterals developed below the abdominal wall. A gastroscopy showed stage I fundic varices, but no esophageal varices. (1-10) This patient was diagnosed with a smoldering multiple myeloma 5 years earlier with regular follow-up in the hemato-oncology department. No other pro-thrombotic conditions were found and in a follow-up CT scan 6 months later the findings were un-changed despite anticoagulation. Splenic vein thrombosis is frequently diagnosed in the chronic stage, when collaterals have already developed (11-18). In this case, the presence of two major spontaneous shunts between the splenic vein and the superior mesenteric vein is preventing complications (19-23) such as porto-systemic encephalopathy and variceal bleeding

Published: May 2024

A field experiment was conducted during the rainy (kharif) season of 2011–12 at Mirzapur, Uttar Pradesh to study the response of pearlmillet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] to nitrogen and zinc on Zn biofortification in this crop. The field experiment was laid out in a factorial randomized block design, with 3 replications, comprising 4 nitrogen (N) levels (0, 20, 40 and 60 kg N/ha) and 3 levels of zinc (0, 5 and 10 kg Zn/ha) with constant rates of phosphorus and potassium at 40 and 30 kg/ha respectively. Application of 60 kg N/ha and 10 kg Zn/ha resulted in the maximum grain yield, N content and uptake by grain and stover of pearlmillet. Zinc content in grain linearly enhanced with sole application of N and Zn levels up to 20 kg N/ha and 5 kg Zn/ha. Combined application of 5 kg Zn/ ha × 20 kg N/ha was found optimum for enhancement of Zn content in grains of pearlmillet. Agronomic nitrogen and zinc efficiency decreased with the increasing nitrogen and zinc levels.

A field experiment was carried out during 3 consecutive rainy seasons (kharif) June–November and winter (rabi) December–May seasons of 2013–16 at Canning Town, West Bengal to evaluate 3 rice (Oryza sativa L.) es tablishment methods, viz. dry direct seeding (DSR), unpuddled transplanting (UNPT) and puddled transplanting (PT), followed by 3 tillage practices for sowing rabi maize (Zea mays L.), viz. zero tillage (ZT), conventional tillage (CT) and raised bed sowing (RBS). The DSR was done in the last week of May when the soil salinity was higher (12–15 dS/m); however, it reduced to 4–5 dS/m in the month of June due to leaching of salts by monsoon rain. The transplanting in the UNPT and PT plots was done during the first week of July using 40 days old seedlings. Submergence caused by the heavy rain, affected the transplanted rice (PT and UNPT) but not the DSR, as the plants with DSR were sufficiently above the standing water due to higher plant height. The mean grain yields in 3 establishment methods of rice (5,117; 4,477 and 4,740 kg/ha in PT, UNPT and DSR respectively) were statistically at par. However, net returns ( 36,000/ha) and benefit: cost ratio (2.2) were the highest in DSR owing to 24% re duction in cost of cultivation than PT rice. The positive effects of DSR also observed on the succeeding rabi maize crop in terms of 7.4 ha-cm less irrigation water requirement and 27% higher irrigation water productivity. Maize gave the highest yield (5,600 kg/ha), net returns ( 37,910/ha) and benefit: cost ratio (BCR) 1.86 with RBS tillage practices. The system rice-equivalent yield, net returns and BCR were 11,659 kg/ha, 77,470/ha and 2.05, re spectively, for dry direct-seeded rice-raised bed sown maize with higher mean irrigation water productivity (79 kg/ ha-cm) and energy productivity (461 kg/GJ) of rabi maize.

A field experiment was conducted at Rahuri, Maharashtra during the summer seasons of 2013 and 2014, to study the effect of fertigation levels and schedules on yield and monetary returns of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) under naturally ventilated polyhouse. The treatments included 3 fertigation levels [60% of recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF), 80% of RDF and 100% of RDF] and 3 fertigation schedules (6 equal splits of NPK at every 18 days interval, 9 equal splits of RD of NPK at every 12 days interval, 12 equal splits of RD of NPK at every 9 days interval). Yield attributes like number of fruits/plant and fruit weight/plant significantly increased 20.63 and 27.54% owing to fertigation of 80% RDF over 60% RDF. Similarly, fertigation schedule comprising application in 12 equal splits at 9 days interval resulted in significantly more yield attributes over the other schedules. Results of 2 years of investigation indicated that fertigation of 80% of RDF (240 : 120 : 120 N : P : K kg/ha) in 12 equal splits at every 9 days interval up to 120 days after transplanting proved most suitable to achieve the maximum tomato fruit yield (14.34 t), net monetary returns ( 148,300)/unit of polyhouse (784 m2 ) during summer season under naturally ventilated polyhouse condition.

Published: May 2024

An experiment was conducted during 2011–12 at Arabhavi, Karnataka, to study the impact of bio-inoculants and bio-formulations on growth and yield of ‘Salem’ cultivar of turmeric (Curcuma longa L.). Turmeric cv. ‘Salem’ showed better response to combined application of inorganic fertilizers, bio-inoculants and bio-formulations than other treatments used in the study. Combined application of recommended dose of fertilizer [(RDF), FYM @ 25 t/ha and N:P:K @ 180:90:90 kg/ha) + VA-Mycorrhiza (VAM) + Trichoderma harzianum + Panchagavya + Amrit pani resulted in higher fresh rhizome yield and growth parameters, viz. plant height, pseudostem diameter, leaf area and leaf-area index, which was at par with the treatment, RDF + VAM + Trichoderma harzianum. Similarly, the highest benefit: cost ratio of 4.87 was obtained with the application of RDF + VAM + Trichoderma harzianum + Panchagavya + Amrit pani compared to the other treatments. Hence planting of turmeric rhizome with combination of RDF + VAM + Trichoderma harzianum + Panchagavya + Amrit pani was profitable under northern dry zone of Karnataka.

A field experiment was conducted during the rainy (kharif) seasons of 2014 and 2015 at Patna, Bihar to optimise the seeding rates and nitrogen scheduling for direct-seeded rice (Oryza sativa L.) under the rainfed drought-prone environment. The soil of the experimental plot was loamy, low in organic carbon (0.42) and available N (149.6 kg/ha), high in available phosphorus (25.8 kg/ha), medium in available potash content (183.6 kg/ha) and slightly alkaline (pH 7.7). The treatments consisted of 3 seeding rates (S1: 20 kg/ha; S2 : 30 kg/ha; and S3 : 40 kg/ha) in main-plot and four nitrogen schedules (N1 , 1/3 N as basal and 2/3 N at maximum tillering; N2 , 1/3 N as basal and 1/3 N at maximum tillering and 1/3 N at panicle initiation; N3 , 1/2 N at first shower/enough moisture availability preferably after first weeding and 1/2 N at maximum tillering; and N4 , 1/3 N at first shower/enough moisture availability preferably after first weeding, 1/3 N at maximum tillering and 1/3 N at panicle initiation stage) in sub-plot and replicated thrice in split-plot design. The results revealed that the grain yield was significantly higher with S3 (3.2 t/ha) than that to S1 (2.4 t/ha), but statistically at par with that obtained with S2 (3.1 t/ha). Varying nitrogen schedules did not affect the grain yield markedly. Comparatively higher grain yield was recorded with N4 (3.0 t/ha) followed by N3 (2.94 t/ha) and N1 (2.87 t/ha). The gross returns (32.1 ×103 /ha), net returns (15.9 × 103 /ha) and benefit: cost ratio (1.64) were significantly higher with 40 kg/ha seed rate compared to 20 kg/ha ( 22.4 ×103/ha, 6.2 ×103/ha and 1.26 but statistically similar to 30 kg/ha ( 28.9 ×103 /ha, 13.4 ×103/ha and 1.55. The net returns were significantly higher with N4 closely followed by N3. Hence, growing of direct-seeded rice using 40 kg/ha seed rate along with split application of 1/3rd N at first shower/enough moisture availability preferably after first weeding, 1/3rd N at maximum tillering and 1/3rd N at panicle initiation stage is an ideal and sustainable approach in terms of productivity and profitability under rainfed drought-prone environment of Eastern India.

Published: May 2024

A field experiment was conducted at the Bichpuri, Agra, Uttar Pradesh during the winter (rabi) seasons of 2011–12 and 2012–13, to evaluate the effect of different grass and broad-leaf herbicides as sole and ready-mix application on weed control in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Ready-mix application of herbicides proved better than their alone application in suppressing weed number and dry weight. Application of sulfosulfuron + metsulfuron (25 + 4 g/ha) resulted in the highest weed-control efficiency (WCE) as well as herbicide efficiency (HEI) and lowest weed index of 94.8%, 2.97 and 3.3 respectively. The highest grain and stover yield of 4.05 and 6.39 t/ha were obtained from weed-free treatment, although this remained statistically at par with sulfosulfuron + metsulfuron (25 + 4 g/ha) and both the treatments resulted in an increase of 34.6 and 30.2% in grain yield as compared to weedy check respectively. The highest net returns ( 43,200/ha) and benefit: cost ratio (2.40) were obtained with ready-mix application sulfosulfuron metsulfuron (25 + 4 g/ha) among the tested herbicide treatments.

Published: May 2024

A field experiment was conducted during rainy (kharif) season of 2016 at Hazaribag, Jharkhand to study the effect of varieties and phosphorus (P) applications on grain yield and economics of direct-seeded upland rice (Oryza sativa L.). The experiment was laid out in split plot design with three replications, keeping 3 rice varieties, viz. ‘Vandana’, ‘Anjali’ and ‘CR Dhan 40’, in the main plots and 7 different P rates. viz., 0 kg/ha, phosphorus solubilizing bacteria (PSB) + arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), 13.2 kg P/ha through single super phosphate (SSP), 13.2 kg P/ha through SSP + PSB + AMF, 26.4 kg P/ha through SSP, 26.4 kg P/ha through SSP + PSB + AMF and 39.6 kg P/ha through SSP in the sub-plots. The results revealed that yield attributes, viz. effective tillers/m2 (312), filled grains/panicle (130), panicle weight (27.9 g), 1,000-grain weight (22.5 g), and grain (3.91 t/ha) and straw yields (6.17 t/ha) were higher in ‘CR Dhan 40’ compared to ‘Anjali’ (259, 115, 2.04 g, 20.4 g, 3.33 t/ha and 5.64 t/ ha respectively) and ‘Vandana’ (252, 108, 1.78 g, 19.9 g, 3.12 t/ha and 5.53 t/ha respectively). Similarly, application of 39.6 kg P/ha through SSP recorded the highest values for yield attributes, grain (4.25 t/ha) and straw yields (6.79 t/ha), and was at par with 26.4 kg P/ha through SSP + PSB + AMF. Net returns and B:C ratio were also recorded the highest in ‘CR Dhan 40’ with 39.6 kg P/ha through SSP, which was at par with 26.4 kg P/ha through SSP + PSB + AMF. Thus, integrated application of 26.4 kg P/ha through SSP along with PSB and AMF in ‘CR Dhan 40’ can enhance grain yield and net returns of direct-seeded upland rice in Jharkhand.

Published: May 2024

A field experiment was conducted from winter (rabi) 2013–14 to rainy season (kharif) 2015 on sandy-loam soil, to assess the comparative efficacy of different chemical herbicides and their combinations for effective weed control in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and their residual effect on succeeding greengram [Vigna radiate (L.) R. Wilczek] crop at Instructional Farm, Sumerpur, Rajasthan. The experiment comprised 9 treatments and the herbicides were applied at 30–35 days after sowing (DAS) as prescribed. The application of sulfosulfuron + metsulfuron methyl @ 32 g/ha recorded significantly lower weed dry matter and weed index along with highest weed-control index (76.73 %). This herbicides combination also resulted in the highest grain yield of wheat (3.82 t/ha) along with highest net return and maximum benefit to cost ratio of the system in the tune of 3.4 : 1 as compared to weedy check. The herbicides failed to influence a significant increase on seed yield of succeeding greengram during kharif seasons in both years. Uncontrolled weed growth throughout the crop growth period caused an average yield reduction of 57% in wheat crop (2.5 t/ha).

Published: May 2024

Case

Custom revision total shoulder replacements are one option for salvage of failed shoulder arthroplasty, but reports are scarce. We report two cases of revision shoulder arthroplasty using a custom constrained total shoulder (CCTS) endoprosthesis with a bi-flanged scapular (BFS) component in the setting of soft tissue, humeral, and glenoid bone loss.

Conclusion

The CCTS with BFS is a viable salvage implant for failed reverse total shoulder arthroplasty to achieve pain reduction, but long-term follow up is needed.
PROPHETA: A NEW MORPHOMETRIC ANALYSIS SOFTWARE FOR INDUSTRIAL PRODUCT DESIGN
Authors: ARTACHO RAMIREZ MIGUEL ANGEL , XIANGYU ZOU , ARRUFAT ALVAREZ JOSE MANUEL , CLOQUELL BALLESTER VICTOR ANDRES
Published: May 2024

ABSTRACT:
This paper introduces ProPheTA (Product Phenetics-based Typology Assessment) as a new morphometric analysis software for industrial, phenetics-based product design (PP). Phenetics is used in Biology to determine similarities between species by comparing their formal external attributes. This way, PP replicates this procedure and, by doing a morphological analysis of different models from the same product family, makes it possible to relate their morphology with the user's emotional, perceptive, hedonic and buying intention response. All this requires working with CAD models, aligning, scaling, selecting them along the X, Y and Z axes, editing images, obtaining dissimilarity indexes, and correlating them with the user's response. Various CAD and morphometric computation tools not explicitly developed for these procedures are used to fulfil these tasks. File compatibility problems and excessive manual work and working time must be circumvented. ProPheTA has been developed in Matlab to solve these problems using a single platform. Its performance in a previous PP study, which related shape to buying intention, has been evaluated to demonstrate its reliability and speed. Results show a ten-time speed improvement in the computation with identical dissimilarity results. In addition, ProPheTA offers several advantages, such as ease of use, robust batch-processing capabilities, multiple output formats and improved compatibility. These functionalities, together with its ability to analyze the outline of 3D shapes without manual selection of landmark points, make it a versatile software application which is flexible, reliable and much faster. Thus, ProPheta is arguably valuable for helping speed up the application of PP in industrial design.

Transferring water has historically been a very viable way of making water available. However, despite its viability, nowadays it is considered to be synonymous with conflict. Due to the media coverage, the Tagus-Segura water transfer is well known, but on the Iberian Peninsula there are numerous large water diversions. In this paper the most important water transfers will be described and the cost between carrying out a water diversion and the implementation of a desalination plant will be compared by calculating the equivalent annual cost, which is the methodology used to determine the economic burdens of the River Basin Plans, in application of the Water Framework Directive.

Given the current state of climate change and the fight against it, green hydrogen has the potential to be the energy vector of the future within a context of decarbonisation. In this way, fossil fuels might be replaced by green hydrogen in those sectors that are most difficult to decarbonise. Therefore, in recent years it is becoming more and more common to hear about green hydrogen in society and the great advantages of using it, although, it also has some disadvantages, mostly related to higher costs and higher energy consumption. With this in mind, the purpose of this paper is to use social media intelligence for the topical issue of green hydrogen; i.e. the objective is to gather and analyse the social perception of it. For this purpose, taking the social media platform Twitter as our source of information, we extracted 625,794 green hydrogen tweets for the years 2020, 2021 and 2022. On the one hand, a social network analysis was carried out, obtaining different metrics and identifying the main communities that have been talking about green hydrogen in the digital sphere over the last three years. On the other hand, using artificial neural networks, a sentiment classification model was applied to the tweets with the aim of detecting the emotion generated by society. Accordingly, results were obtained and interpreted through a novel methodological combination. The network analysis revealed that the conversation taking place is not polarized and is a reflection of the digital agora that brings together citizens, media actors and actors from the economic-political space. In addition, the sentiment analysis conducted shows that the overall digital discussion is positive.

Published: May 2024

Este estudo investiga o assédio moral sofrido por enfermeiros dentro das Unidades Básicas de Saúde em uma cidade do Tocantins, analisando os fatores por trás da baixa notificação dessas situações, revisando os tipos mais comuns de assédio moral enfrentados e avaliando se as relações empregatícias e o desconhecimento dos enfermeiros estão associados à subnotificação. Embora o assédio moral tenha sérios impactos na vida profissional, é pouco discutido tanto nas universidades quanto nos locais de trabalho. Os enfermeiros enfrentam diversas formas de assédio, como humilhações públicas e sobrecarga de trabalho, mas muitos casos não são denunciados devido ao medo de retaliação ou à falta de conhecimento sobre como fazer a denúncia. A pesquisa realizada com 44 enfermeiros da atenção básica utilizou uma abordagem de natureza exploratória de campo de forma qualitativa e quantitativa. Durante a pesquisa, observou-se que a maioria dos entrevistados (45,5%) escolheram não denunciar as situações de assédio moral que enfrentaram. Todavia, é crucial promover treinamento e apoio para que os enfermeiros reconheçam e denunciem o assédio moral, além de implementar políticas organizacionais e governamentais mais robustas para prevenir e combater essa prática, visando ambientes de trabalho mais saudáveis e respeitosos.

Authors: Ilomor Innocent , Ikomi Robert
Published: May 2024

A preliminary survey of the composition, abundance and distribution of non-cichlid fish community was carried out at Ogbo stream and its floodplain in Enhwe, Delta StateNigeria. Water samples and fishes were sampled and analyzed using APHA methods and standard fishing gear respectively. The physicochemical parameters revealed distinct values for station 1 (Temperature: 25.63°C, Transparency: 25.09 cm, Sulphate: 7.56 mg/L) and station 2 (Temperature: 23.60 °C, Transparency: 19.90 cm, Sulphate: 6.68 mg/L). Among the parameters, only Temperature, Transparency, and Sulphate exhibited a noteworthy difference (p<0.05) between the two stations. Transparency had a negative correlation with other parameters in Station 1.A total of 725 individual fish species belonging to eight families and genera were sampled. Among the notable findings, Clariidae emerged as the most abundant family, constituting 82.90% of the total relative abundance across both stations. Clarias camerunensisexhibited the highest abundance, comprising 62.20% of the total individuals sampled. Parachanna africanaand Clarias pachynemaalso demonstrated significant presence, contributing 15.00% and 13.20% to the total relative abundance, respectively. ANOVA indicates a significant difference in the composition and abundance of fish species between the stream and floodplain (p < 0.05), emphasizing the influence of habitat-specific factors. The Margalef’s richness (1.67), dominance (0.64), diversity (1.32) and evenness (0.34) index of fishes was higher in the stream than in the floodplains. Magnesium, sulphate, temperature, and transparency were positively correlated to the distribution patterns of Pantodon bucholzi, Clarias jaensis, Phractolaemus ansorgei, and Heterotis niloticusin station 1, with the exception of P. africanaand Polypterus senegalus. There was a negative association between dissolved oxygen, nitrate, pH, and Iron, and the distribution of fishes in station 2. Ogbo stream and its floodplain have low abundance and distribution of fish species. Therefore, it demands for sampling efforts and long-term studies to unravel the checklist of species

Published: May 2024

Fifty-nine (59)vertical electrical sounding (VES) data wereacquired within Ilere community, near Akure southwestern Nigeriato characterize the area into different corrosivity zones atdifferent depth surfaces. The acquired field data were interpreted using manual curve matching technique and the initial layer parameters (resistivity and thickness) were iterated to produce the final geoelectric parameters (resistivity and thickness). Since metallic utilities are installedat different depths depending on their purpose, the VES results were presented as table,topsoil and iso-resistivity depths slice maps (0.5, 0.75, 1.0 and 3.0 m) in order to make the research workrelevant for different uses.The 0.5 m depth slice isoresistivity map shows that about 75% of this depth surface are of higher resistivity(above 201 Ωm) suggesting negligible corrosivity. The 0.75 m depth slice isoresistivity map indicated that about 70% of this depth surface are of higher resistivity(above 201 Ωm) suggesting negligible corrosivity. Likewise, the 1.0 m depth slice isoresistivity map shows that about 60% of this depth surface are of higher resistivity(above 201 Ωm) suggesting negligible corrosivity. Finally, the3.0 m depth slice isoresistivity map shows that about 35% of this depth surface are of higher resistivity(above 201 Ωm) suggesting negligible corrosivity.

Medicinal Plants and Natural Substances for Poultry Health: A Review
Authors: Pashaei Mohsen , Fayçal Zeroual , Kahrizi Danial , Ercisli Sezai
Published: May 2024

The global poultry industry relies heavily on antibiotics to prevent and treat diseases and promote growth. However, the rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria poses significant risks to both animal and human health, necessitating alternative approaches to maintain health and productivity. This review systematically examines the evidence for medicinal plants and their bioactive components as non-antibiotic interventions and growth promoters in poultry species. Numerous herbs, spices, plant extracts, essential oils, and isolated phytochemicals demonstrate beneficial bioactivities relevant to poultry production in vitro and in vivo, including antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant effects. While considerable research confirms positive impacts on performance under experimental conditions, questions remain regarding bioavailability, mechanisms, efficacy, safety, feasibility, and suitability for commercial integration that currently impede widespread adoption as antibiotic alternatives. Further high-quality controlled trials directly analyzing physiological responses, production impacts, safety profiles, and cost-effectiveness analysis are warranted to support the integration of evidence-based phytogenic feed additives in poultry production systems.
EFFECT OF WASTE PLASTIC AND CRUMB RUBBER ON PROPERTIES OF SEMI DENSE BITUMINOUS CONCRETE MIX
Authors: Dubey Vaibhav , Parihar Satish
Published: May 2024

Plastic is used in day to day life. So, it’s a well- known thing that more waste would be generated throughplastic. It is discarded either by burning or by burying it in thesoil. Due to the non-biodegradability of the plastic it’s not easyto get rid of it through natural processes prevailing in the environment. So, one way in which plastic could be reused is by using it in pavement. An effort of using waste plastic in coating the aggregates is being engrossed in this study. Crumbrubber made from waste tires is also used in this study to modify the bitumen. Earlier studies have proven plastic and crumb rubber effective in increasing the strengths of pavements. So, taking this idea plastic coating is done in the aggregates and bitumen is modified with crumb rubber to check the results. The low-density plastic is taken in use. Temperaturevarying between 120 ˚C - 160 ˚C gives the softening point of the plastics being used. They do not produce any toxic gases during heating but they get often Edan laminate the aggregates. The study focuses on using different percentages of plastic in coating aggregates and different percentages of crumb rubber & study their behavior. The bitumen VG-30 is used as a binderin the mix. The performance tests including, Marshall Stabilitytests are to be conducted to find stability, density, optimum binder content and voids. The first phase of investigation focuses in the next study CRUMB RUBBER Modified Bitumen will be used in place of normal VG-30 bitumen.
LC-MS and HPLC-UV for Detecting Uremic Toxins: Two Validated Methods with Simultaneous Sensitivity and Specificity Evaluation
Authors: Cristina Filosa , Marcello Leopoldo , Nicola Antonio Colabufo
Published: May 2024

Uremic toxins (UTs) are compounds derived from the metabolism of dietary molecules such as tryptophan (Indossyl Sulphate, IS) and phenil-alanine (P-Cresyl Sulphate, PCS), that are normally eliminated by the kidneys of healthy patients. The accumulation of such toxins is an indicator of kidney disease at different degrees of severity, and the toxins can be found as free or protein bound in human biological samples. The toxicity of such compounds causes the loss of several biological functions, and the subjects suffering from such complications will need, more often than not, hemodialysis to properly excrete these toxins. Despite this not being a resolutive, but rather a symptom managing clinical approach, this is the most common course of treatment. Two analytical methods are proposed to quantify both the protein-bound and free forms of IS and PCS (HPLC-UV for the former; LC-MS/MS with ESI negative ionization for the latter), with lower variability and higher robustness than what is currently proposed, allowing for a precise simultaneous determination of the aforementioned UTs.
The Dibia in Igbo Traditional Socio-political and Metaphysical Economy: An Interrogation
Authors: Kingsley Okoro , Kenneth Igbo Nwokike
Published: May 2024

This work is carried out to fill the epistemic and hermeneutical gap within Igbo socio-metaphysical space. Notable works have been done in Igbo studies, however, the place of the Dibia in Igbo ontology has been neglected, hence the current work. The researchers combined library and fieldwork approaches in executing this work. In the end, the research notes that modern Igbo people have neglected the place and activities of the Dibia. Noting that the Dibia being the active presence of the God[s] among the people is an indispensable persona in the Igbo existence. Therefore, the current crisis of relevance the people are experiencing is a result of this neglect. The works, therefore, conclude that if the Dibia and her activities are brought back to the centre stage of Igbo existence, the socio-political and economic crises of the moment would have been a history

Strategies for Implementing "Integrated Teaching-Learning-Assessment" in the Context of English Core Literacy
Authors: Wu Yaobin
Published: May 2024

The emergence of the National English Curriculum Standards (2017 Edition, Revised in 2020) has sparked widespread attention and resonance in the field of secondary school English teaching. Delving into the study and application of the new curriculum standards has become a crucial entry point and lever for secondary school English teachers to renew their teaching philosophies, enhance teaching effectiveness, and advance the depth of education. The new curriculum standards provide important guidance on how secondary school English teachers should teach, how students should learn, and how to effectively integrate teaching, learning, and assessment, thereby delineating the direction of English teaching in the current era of emphasizing subject core literacy in quality education. The 2022 Compulsory Education Curriculum Standards explicitly mention the curriculum design concept of "integrating teaching and assessment," further deepening the intrinsic connections among teaching, learning, and assessment. Therefore, based on the guiding principles of "integrating teaching and assessment," this paper relies on the 2017 edition of the new curriculum standards and combines the practical situation of secondary school English teaching to analyze how to comprehensively understand the connotation of "integrating teaching and assessment" and how to implement effective teaching and assessment practices.
Evolution of Marital and Family Systems and Family Relations from the Perspective of the “Fertility System”
Authors: Yi Yixin , Han Menglu , Zhao Yichen
Published: May 2024

Fei Xiaotong pointed out that, from the observable perspective of human society, the fertility system manifests as a series of institutions within marriage and family. “In order to fulfill the function of social reproduction, a series of social institutions such as marriage, family, and kinship emerged, collectively referred to as the ‘fertility system,’ which encompasses the two aspects of reproduction and nurturing, essential activities for maintaining the existence of the group.” Marriage, family, kinship, and other institutional frameworks ensure the completion of reproduction, guaranteeing the continuity of the human species, constituting fundamental and universal systems within human society. When discussing the functions of the reproductive system, Fei Xiaotong adopts the fundamental concept of his mentor Malinowski, that social institutions originate from human needs. However, regarding whether the marital and family system satisfies human biological needs or social needs, he puts forward a viewpoint different from Malinowski’s. This article also discusses the changes in Chinese marriage and family from the perspectives of the evolving social institutions of marriage and family, and the dynamics within family relationships.
