BACKGROUND: This study examined the trends, determinants and health risks of adolescent fatherhood in three selected African countries where adolescent-girl pregnancy/motherhood are decried but with permissive male sexual latitude.METHODS: Adolescent male data were extracted from the malerecodedatasets of Demographic Health Survey (2000-2014) for Nigeria, Ethiopia and Zambia. The surveys were grouped into 3-Waves: (2000-2004); (2005-2008) and (2011-2014). The study employed descriptive and binary logistics that tested the log-odds of adolescent fatherhood with respect to selected sexual behaviour indices, and individual and shared demographic variables.RESULTS: The results revealed that the number of lifetimesexual-partners among the boys is ≥2. The likelihood of adolescent fatherhood is positively associated with increasing age at first cohabitation and multiple sexual partnerships (≥2) having OR=1.673 and OR=1.769 in 2005/2008 and 2011/2014 respectively. Adolescents who had attained tertiary education, and engaged in professional and skilled jobs were 0.313, 0.213 and 0.403 times (respectively) less likely to have ever-fathered a child. The positive association between rural place of residence and adolescent fatherhood in the past shifted to urban residents in 2011/2014.CONCLUSION: The study concludes that early sexual activities and cohabitation are common among male adolescents among the countries of study. The authors recommend discouragement of boy-girl cohabitation, increasing access to higher education and job opportunities in order to stem boy-fatherhood incidence in the study locations and, by extension, other countries in sub-Saharan Africa.KEYWORDS: Adolescent fatherhood, sexual behaviour, trends, determinants, health risks, lifetime-sexual-partners

Published: March 2021

BACKGROUND: Bronchiectasis is one of the major health problems in Ethiopia. We analyzed the outcome of surgery done for bronchiectasis in a resource-limited setup.METHODS: A retrospective cross-sectional analysis of 22 patients who underwent surgery for bronchiectasis in Tikur Anbessa specialized hospital (TASH) during the period 2012 - 2017 were done.RESULTS: There were 13(59%) female and 9(41%) male patients with a mean age of 34.1 +/-16.9 years. The mean duration of symptoms was 2.2 years. Blood streak sputum, 13(59%), dyspnea, 9(49.9%), fetid sputum, 8(36.4%), dry cough, 6(27.3%), chest pain, 6(27.3%) and massive hemoptysis 3(13.6%) were the main presenting symptoms. In 20(91%) of the patients, previous history of TB treatment was identified. Recurrent childhood infection, 1(4.5%), and tumor obstruction, 1(4.5%), were also seen. Bronchiectasis was left sided in 12(54.5%), right-sided in 7(31.8%) and bilateral in 3(13.6%) patients. The disease affected multiple lung lobes in 9(40.9%), left lower lobe in 6(27.3%) and left upper lobe in 3(13.6%) cases. Indications for surgery were the failure of medical management in 10(45.5%), destroyed lung in 9(40.9%), and massive hemoptysis in 3(13.6%) cases. The procedures performed were lobectomy in 14(63.6%) and pneumonectomy in 8(36.4%) cases. Postoperative complications occurred in 5(22.7%)patients with one (4.5%) death. On the other hand, 77.3% of operated patients had significant improvement compared to their preoperative symptoms.CONCLUSIONS: In a resource-limited setup like TASH, localized bronchiectasis can be treated surgically with an acceptable result. Proper selection and preparation with complete resection of the involved segments are needed for maximum control of symptoms and better outcomes.
The Story of the Old Rectory in Žilina
Authors: Dudáš Miloš
Published: March 2021

Church of the Holy Trinity, was emotionally charged, controversial and, in the end, very sad. The Rectory’s architecture and construction reflected both the needs of its various owners, and many of the dramatic events that had affected the city throughout its history. Despite repeated damage by fire, the faith community always found the strength and energy to restore the building and bring it back to life. Up until 1989, the Rectory was an integral part of the community’s spiritual life, and even after then, its upper storey continued to serve as the Church’s pastoral centre and a meeting place for Christian youth activities, while the ground floor housed the city’s Tourist Information Board and a popular restaurant. The Rectory was declared a national cultural monument in 2008, just as a developer was taking an interest in the site on which it stood. At this point, the local Church authorities decided it was not worthy of salvation and swiftly lodged an appeal against the decision to protect it, downplaying the building’s historical and architectural value, suggesting that since its original Late Medieval/ Early Modern features had been lost to fire 1678, the current building, reconstructed in 1777, was of no significant value. While a decision on the appeal was still pending, the Rectory was demolished, in the middle of Saturday night, July 12, 2008. The ground on which it stood was completely excavated within a week, allowing no possibility of recovery archaeological research. Eventually, a shopping centre was built over the place it once stood. This article discusses the controversial processes that led to the building’s abrupt demolition, and explores the failure to bring charges against those responsible for its destruction, which took place contrary to the Monuments Act.

Published: March 2021

The constant development of multimedia technologies and, as a result, their rapid spread among countries around the world has been a general trend in digital art in the late twentieth and early twenty-first century. This phenomenon, as practice shows, comes out top among other creative activities. With the help of multimedia technologies it is possible to optimize multimedia systems in figurative and meaningful value relations. An important role here is given to the development of a unigue multimedia “language”, which harmoniously combines technical, creative and value-oriented components.This article presents an analysis of the use of the submersive method in solving scenario-design problems for the preservation of elements of cultural heritage through the use of 3D mapping and video projection in exhibition space design and for projections onto the facades of architectural landmarks. The content of such video projections and specific characteristics of the artistic imag-es they draw upon depend on the functional purpose of the context in which the interactive work is presented. There remains a need for greater scientific understanding of the phenomenon of in-teractive art, in the interests of improving professional design practices in the preservation of cul-tural heritage works.

Occupational Therapy’s Role in Addressing Sexuality and Intimacy for Individuals with Progressive Neuromuscular Disorders
Authors:   , Richards Lindsay
Published: March 2021

Individuals with progressive neuromuscular disorders (PND); specifically, Parkinson’s disease (PD), Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Huntington’s Disease (HD), and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) often face physical, psychological, and social challenges related to sex and intimacy. Occupational therapy (OT) practitioners are experts in activity analysis and are equipped with unique knowledge of performance skills and client factors to address deficits in occupational performance. Though there is literature presenting the effects of PND on sexual occupations, a gap exists as it relates to qualitative data from the perspective of the individual and their partners. A mixed-methods survey was conducted examining the lived experience of adults with progressive neuromuscular disorders to inform programming addressing intimate and sexual needs. Themes were identified from study results in order to inform an evidence-based program addressing sexual and intimate participation and enhance relationships. This research reaffirmed that sexual occupations should not go unaddressed as these can be beneficial not only to the individual patient's well-being, but their partnership and social domains as well. Occupational therapists can facilitate meaningful participation in sexual occupations for these individuals by addressing: their unique physical barriers through positioning and adaptations, providing stress management strategies for both internal and external stressors, and facilitating positive communication between individuals with PND and their partners. The findings from this study support an increased role for OT practitioners in the domain of sexuality.

Authors:   Khmelnytsky University of Management and Law, Bryhinets Oleksandr , Kovalova Anastasiia ,   Kyiv University of Law of the NAS of Ukraine
Published: March 2021

International investment disputes between states arise in connection with different interpretation and application of the provisions of international investment treaties and agreements. As the matter of fact, such disputes also appear from violations of the provisions of international investment agreements that may prejudice the rights of foreign private investors. Since a dispute arises from a violation of investor rights, most modern investment treaties provide for the right of investors to submit a dispute to an independent arbitration or judicial authority. Investment disputes between the host state and the investor, mostly, come from the violation of international investment treaties that may become the subject of an interstate dispute only by mutual consent of the host state and the investor state.

Using Paired Depth Interviews to Collect Qualitative Data
Authors: Wilson Angie , Onwuegbuzie Anthony , Manning LaShondra
Published: March 2021

In this manuscript, the authors discuss using paired depth interviews as a method of collecting qualitative data. Paired depth interviewing—also known as paired interviewing—is defined as one researcher interviewing two people together (Houssart & Evens, 2011) for the purposes of collecting information about how the pair perceives the same event or phenomenon (Arksey, 1996). Although this form of interviewing has much potential as a data collection tool, it has received scant attention in the qualitative research literature. Thus, the purpose of this article is to provide a framework for using paired depth interviews as a method of collecting qualitative data. In this manuscript, we define and describe paired depth interviews, discuss conceptualizations of paired depth interviews using Roulston’s (2010) framework, delineate the strengths and limitations of paired depth interviews, and provide examples of paired depth interviews utilized in helping professions. Furthermore, we present a case study of original work that illustrates the utility of paired depth interviews and provide suggestions for future directions for paired depth interviews.

Published: March 2021

Parents are real beneficiaries of school services. Their involvement in school based activities has changed the role breadth of teachers. Schools can handle this parental involvement through the extra-role behaviors of teachers. These beyond the job behaviors or organizational citizenship behaviors (OCB) of teachers are crucial for the schools. Despite the prescribed roles and duties, the schools cannot predict and infer through formally stated in-role job description, the entire range of extra-role behavior exhibited by teachers during and after school. In this study, teacher’s role breadth is examined under the broad spectrum of Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) which resulted into a conceptual model on the determinants of teacher’s OCB. A qualitative evaluation (grounded theory) of 40 interviews has been conducted with all the stakeholders of school in India viz., principals, fellow-teachers, students, and parents. The most striking finding is that teachers are displaying prosocial behavior. Teacher’s OCB is found to have three determinants—OCB-Individual, OCB-Organization and OCB-Prosocial. Involvement of parents in school are redesigning and affecting the actions of teacher. Further, the implications and directions for future research have also been discussed.

The role of directives with command and question speech functions in teaching and learning contexts has received increased attention across a number of disciplines in recent years. This current study was aimed at investigating the use and function of directives with command and question speech functions as a dimension of interpersonal realization in aerospace engineering lectures at Delft University of Technology, Netherlands. Focusing on the English mood system, this study applied Halliday’s (1985, 1994) and Eggins’s (1994) Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) approach. A qualitative content analysis was carried out in four selected content lessons. The data were collected through videotaped recordings as found at cosmolearning.org. The findings showed that engineering lecturers employed various types of directives. In terms of commands, the lecturers used imperative, declarative, and modulated interrogative moods. In addition, lecturers used interrogative and declarative moods to pose questions. The lecturers used commands to express their attitudes, to organize their messages, to check students’ understanding, and to signal the contents of the exams. Meanwhile, in terms of questions, they function to elicit students’ background knowledge, to check on students’ comprehension, and to handle classroom management issues. The findings of this study can be used by English for Academic Purposes (EAP) professionals, in particular, language lecturers preparing students for the English for Medium Instruction (EMI) study. Also, stakeholders should use the findings of this study as a tool to improve English for English Special Purposes (ESP) teaching and learning in the context of the engineering classroom.

The growth of da'wa accounts based on Salafi teachings on social media is growing massively. Instagram @khalidbasalamahofficial is one of the accounts currently charged with Salafi preaching. The presence of this account gives a new color amid the diversity of secular accounts that can mislead people. Even though it is formalistic with the principle of emphasizing Salafi preaching, this account is able to attract the attention of Instagram users by seeing the growth of followers that continues to increase. This study aims to see the strategies made by the Khalid Basalamah (KHB) team of Studio Digital in producing content to attract the attention of their followers. The formulation of the problem taken in this study includes how the official team's strategy is to present content on the @khalidbasalamahofficial account that attracts the attention of Instagram users. This study uses a qualitative method with case studies on the @khalidbasalamahofficial account. The results showed that the use of Instagram media was effective in reaching novice users in learning Salafi da'wa. The strategy adopted by the official team, namely by choosing light themes, did not cause controversy. So that the Salafi da'wa delivered by Khalid Basalamah can be accepted by users who want to start learning Salafi da'wa

Hamka dengan tafsirnya sebenarnya lebih dikenal dengan tafsir bi al-matsur, dan karenanya mungkin saja tidak mungkin menemukan isu sains dalam tafsirnya. Terlebih hal tersebut bukan kajian utama para peneliti ketika mengkaji tafsir Hamka. Namun jika dilihat lagi dengan seksama tafsir ini justru kaya dengan corak dan metode dari berbagai referensi tafsir sehingga memungkinkannya memasukan berbagai hal dalam tafsirnya, tak terkecuali isu sains. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan analisis teks, data dari penelitian ini di ambil dari tafsir al-Azhar karya Hamka dan sumber yang bersesuain dengan tema penelitian. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa Hamka meskipun tafsirnya tidak menggunakan metode sains murni tetapi ditemukan beberapa ayat kauniyah yang ia ditafsirkan dengan penjelasan sains

La implantación de la modalidad semipresencial o a distancia en ciclos formativos es relativamente novedosa, existiendo un claro aumento de su demanda en los últimos años. En la Comunidad Valenciana existen 14 ciclos formativos de la familia de sanidad y el 85,7% se ofertan en la modalidad a distancia. El objetivo de este trabajo fue determinar si existen diferencias en el perfil del estudiante y su rendimiento académico entre las modalidades a distancia y presencial. Para ello, se realizó un estudio observacional transversal comparativo basado en un análisis de frecuencias. El curso seleccionado fue primero de Emergencias sanitarias, con 82 alumnos matriculados. Como instrumentos de medida se utilizó un cuestionario de diseño propio y las actas de evaluación. Los resultados mostraron que el alumnado del grupo semipresencial es de mayor edad, situación laboral activa, peor disponibilidad, más responsabilidades, mayor interés por el ciclo y, por tanto, mayor motivación. Sin embargo, el alumnado de la modalidad presencial se caracterizó por tener menos responsabilidades, así como un mayor conocimiento de idiomas, y obtener mejores calificaciones académicas. A pesar de estos resultados, ambas modalidades brindan una formación de calidad y se debe considerar que la enseñanza semipresencial irá adquiriendo más importancia debido a las características de la sociedad actual, sumado a los avances de las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (TIC).
