Sejarah dan pemikiran akuntansi syariah
Authors: Maulina Isra
Published: July 2022

This paper discusses the history of the birth of sharia accounting which is inseparable from thedevelopment of Islam, the obligation to record non -cash transactions as mentioned in the QS. AlBaqarah: 282 encouraged Muslims to care about recording and gave rise to the tradition ofrecording among the people, and this was one of the factors that encouraged cooperation at thattime. History proves that accounting science has long been practiced in the Islamic world,such as the term journal, which was used during the time of the Islamic caliphate with theterm "jaridah" for financial bookkeeping. Likewise with the double entry written by LucaPacioli. That way we know that Islam first recognized the accounting system because theQur'an was revealed in 610 AD, which is 800 years earlier than Luca Pacioli whopublished his book in 1494. Sharia accounting is accounting which processes financialtransactions using contracts in accordance with the provisions of the Qur'an and Hadithand ijmak. Thus, accounting has been known as a means of accountability to companyowners, so sharia accounting is more than that, namely accountability to company ownersand God.

Proceso de descentralización y el sector agua potable y saneamiento
Authors: Arroyo Arévalo Marcelita , Ramón García Juan
Published: July 2022

La descentralización representa el ejercicio de la democracia en un Estado históricamente centralista. La Constitución de 2008 define el diseño territorial que contribuye a una transferencia organizada de competencias cuya finalidad es alcanzar la equidad territorial y un desarrollo armonizado de las localidades, con énfasis en la calidad de los servicios públicos; la prestación del servicio de agua potable y saneamiento es uno de los más relevantes dada su incidencia en una problemática estructural de la economía nacional como es la desnutrición crónica infantil. El objetivo de este artículo es conocer el modelo de gestión de Quito y Guayaquil, y cómo el ejercicio de esta competencia desde una gestión delegada ha repercutido de manera favorable en los indicadores reportados desde la entidad de control del agua, especialmente los asociados a niveles de cobertura y continuidad en la prestación del servicio.
Millennials ¿similares o diferentes? Inclinación al individualismo en una sociedad colectivista
Authors: Aguilar-Rodríguez Iliana , Artieda-Cajilema Carlos , Acosta-Aguinaga Andrés
Published: July 2022

Esta investigación buscó identificar si las culturas colectivistas pueden presentar tendencias individualistas según los cambios generacionales. Mediante encuestas personales se aplicó el instrumento VSM08 a una muestra de 390 millennials ecuatorianos y se utilizó la prueba de Kolmogorov-Smirnov, U de Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis y chi cuadrado de Pearson. Se evidenció que pueden existir cambios culturales en países colectivistas. Además, se encontró que existen diferencias entre hombres y mujeres de acuerdo con su edad y sector de ubicación. Los hombres y las mujeres más jóvenes son más individualistas y los hombres son menos individualistas en función al sector donde residen. Finalmente, se prueba que el IDV es un indicador válido a pesar de los cambios culturales.
Aplicación de los instrumentos internacionales de derechos humanos y control de convencionalidad
Authors: Añazco Aguilar Alan , Añazco Aguilar Nadia Sofía
Published: July 2022

La garantía efectiva de los derechos humanos exige un diálogo y una construcción permanente entre la Corte Interamericana de Derechos Humanos —en adelante, también, la Corte IDH— y los más altos tribunales de justicia constitucional. La Corte IDH, de manera solvente y extensa, ha desarrollado la teoría del control de convencionalidad como forma de asegurar la coherencia entre las legislaciones internas y la Convención Americana sobre Derechos Humanos —en adelante, también, la Convención o CADH—. Esta teoría se complementa y debe articularse con el sistema o modelos de control de constitucionalidad previstos por cada uno de los países suscriptores de la Convención. En el caso del Ecuador, el control de convencionalidad y el control de constitucionalidad se encuentran imbricados por el principio de aplicación directa de la Constitución y los instrumentos internacionales de derechos humanos, situación harto compleja, especialmente, cuando se trata de abstenerse de aplicar una norma de rango legal para dar paso a la aplicación directa de una norma contenida en un instrumento internacional de derechos humanos. Por lo tanto, el presente ensayo se ocupa de analizar esta disyuntiva a partir del estudio dogmático del control de constitucionalidad y convencionalidad para, en función de ello, determinar la viabilidad de la aplicación directa de los instrumentos internacionales de derechos humanos en nuestra realidad jurídica.
Respuesta al desafío de Silas Malafaia a sus críticos: ¿Por qué no se acepta bíblicamente la teología de la prosperidad?
Authors: Campello Mônica Conte
Published: July 2022

El presente trabajo es una respuesta a un desafío lanzado por el Pastor Silas Malafaia a los críticos de la Teología de la Prosperidad que defiende como bíblica. Se escucharon, estudiaron y analizaron extractos del video “Pastor Silas Malafaia – Uma vida de prosperidade” a partir de textos bíblicos. Pero, ¿por qué la Teología de la Prosperidad no es aceptada bíblicamente? El objetivo de este estudio es probar que la Teología de la Prosperidad no tiene base bíblica, y por lo tanto no es bíblica. Se pretende, por tanto, presentar respuestas a los argumentos sostenidos por él como evidencia de que dicha teología no tiene base bíblica. Para proceder al análisis y respuesta a estos argumentos, se utilizaron los textos bíblicos correspondientes seleccionados del sitio web YouVersion, el cual contiene diferentes versiones bíblicas, entre otras como Biblia Online, Biblia Griega, Biblia Hebrea, para su comparación y análisis. Para ello se realizará una investigación cualitativa exploratoria y descriptiva en la que se observarán de manera deductiva los extractos del video analizado para dar respuesta a la pregunta problema a través de un estudio de caso. Finalmente, cada respuesta presentada a cada fragmento del video resaltado en su respectivo cuadro destacado en este estudio demostró el resultado esperado en cuanto a la pregunta explorada tanto con base en los textos bíblicos como en las interpretaciones de otros autores sobre el tema, pudiendo proceder a nuevos análisis ya que el tema no se agota en este estudio.
Melatonin and its ubiquitous effects on cell function and survival: A review

Published: July 2022

Melatonin, a phylogenic conserved molecule, presents in almost all living organisms and it is believed to be originated to protect the unicellular organisms from oxidative products which were emerged from aerobic respiration. Even with the acquisition of a variety of other functions along evolution, the crucial autocrine, paracrine and endocrine actions of melatonin in the regulation of cell biology were well preserved. The molecular mechanisms involved in the cell cycle that determine survival and death need to be tightly regulated. Changes in these mechanisms can trigger pathologies that compromise the entire balance of the body. In this context, melatonin acts on cellular homeostasis by regulating the main molecular mechanisms that sustain life and control death, such as synthesis and degradation of protein, energy supply and pathways which trigger death to remove the defective cell or any microorganism from the tissues. Thus, this review aims to briefly present the action mechanisms of melatonin, in addition to discussing its fundamental role in cellular processes such as synthesis and degradation of protein, mitochondrial function and cell death control.

REVIEW OF THE EFFECT OF OCCUPIED DENSITY WITH MIXING VENTILATION ON THERMAL HUMAN COMFORT AND INDOOR AIR QUALITY
Authors: Hamza Saber Atheer , Abbas Mahdi Alaa , Wahhab Aljibory Mohammed
Published: July 2022

In this study many researches related to mixing and displacement ventilations in indoor and office rooms were addressed. Good ventilation is one of the most important requirements for space occupants to maintain appropriate environmental conditions, as ventilation increases thermal comfort and improves indoor air quality. However, the studies on mixing ventilation systems based on occupied density have been highlighted in the present work. Improvement of the indoor environment is economically efficient when health and productivity are taken into account. The parts of a room that a person occupies must be characterized by speed and air temperatures suitable for the occupants of the space. In the occupied zone, fresh, clean supply air must reach all its parts, and no stagnation areascan be found there. A group of field studies conducted showed, significant levels ofdissatisfaction with the indoor environment in many buildings despite satisfying the typical ventilation requirements, where there are still many complaints regarding poor indoor air quality and diseases related to poor ventilation of buildings. In enclosed spaces, ventilation is one of the essential methods used to control indoor air quality (IAQ). In buildings, ventilation has an impact on the structure and, as a result, on the people who utilize it. A deteriorated indoor environment increases sick building syndrome (SBS), respiratory illnesses, and reduces comfort and productivity.

La indocilidad de Santiago: la experiencia escolar de un estudiante trans* en el sistema educativo chileno
Authors: Yáñez-Urbina Cristopher , Sandoval-Lucero Natalia , Figueroa-Céspedes Ignacio
Published: July 2022

Este artículo analiza la experiencia escolar de un estudiante trans* en el paso por el sistema escolar chileno. Sistema marcado por una preocupación por la gestión de la sexualidad de niños, niñas y jóvenes que deriva en la (re)producción de dinámicas sexo-genéricas heteronormativas y binarias. Se procedió con un estudio cualitativo de caso único, desde un enfoque narrativo, a la producción de un relato de Santiago, un joven trans* de 18 años, acerca de su trayectoria escolar. Los resultados develan una serie de procesos de negociación, resignificación y resistencia entre Santiago y su entorno escolar. Estos dan cuenta de diversos puntos de tensión, reconocimiento y toma de decisiones. Entre las principales conclusiones destaca que, si bien existe un conjunto de mecanismos heteronormativos en la escuela, estos no logran aplacar la agencia del estudiantado para la construcción de significados propios acerca de sí mismos ni la generación de alianzas colectivas. Dichos elementos, derivan en la necesidad de desarrollar futuras investigaciones que descentren la figura del “caso trans*” hacia la pregunta ¿cómo se configuran los entornos escolares para la inclusión de estudiantes trans*?.
Debates en torno a la educación y al orden de género en las obras de Mary Wollstonecraft y Jean Jacques Rousseau: apuntes sobre la des/igualdad de los niños y las niñas
Authors: Madero Castro Andrea Marina
Published: July 2022

El artículo se propone problematizar los conceptos de igualdad que Jean Jacques Rousseau (1762) y Mary Wollstonecraft (1792) aplican en sus reflexiones en torno a la educación de los niños y las niñas. Se plantea el concepto de igualdad de Rousseau como una paradoja por su carácter relativo y excluyente de todas las mujeres, por lo que se propone que se trata de una igualdad diferenciada sexualmente, que se expresa en la educación también diferenciada de los niños y las niñas, que produce un orden de género profundamente desigual. Para ejemplificar dicha hipótesis, se analizan argumentos rousseaunianos en los que se evidencian los matices de la igualdad del autor. Finalmente, se presentarán algunas críticas que Mary Wollstonecraft hizo a las ideas del autor francés, entre las cuales destaca la alternativa educativa que presenta frente a la paradoja de la igualdad de Rousseau, optando por una visión igualitaria de los sexos, de la crianza y de la educación, poniendo en práctica ideas del feminismo ilustrado de la igualdad y apuntando a la producción de un nuevo orden de género.
Movimiento universitario y violencia de género
Authors: Galindo Cruz Ana Karen , Lozano Hernández Abel
Published: July 2022

El trabajo reconstruye un panorama complejo de inseguridad y movilizaciones feministas en búsqueda por el reconocimiento, prevención, atención y resolución satisfactoria de la violencia de género tanto en la sociedad como en la universidad. Dentro de un contexto álgido en la ciudad de Puebla, surgió un movimiento estudiantil en la facultad de medicina de la BUAP, que llevó por nombre Asamblea 25/02, a través del cual la comunidad estudiantil demandó y enunció un hartazgo ante la violencia, así como la exigencia de justicia. La agenda del movimiento se dividió en seguridad interna y externa. Para la última se problematizaron asaltos, levantones, secuestros y asesinatos, mientras que, para la interna, compañeras feministas hicieron énfasis en el clima de inseguridad que aún se vive al interior de la universidad por actos de hostigamiento y acoso sexual por parte de administrativos, directivos, docentes, estudiantes y personal de seguridad de la universidad (DASU) hacia compañeras universitarias. Con un enfoque crítico, con perspectiva de género e interseccionalidad, consideramos relevante realizar un acercamiento a la movilización estudiantil en la BUAP ya que propició un replanteamiento de la inseguridad percibida por la población universitaria y reposicionó el tema del Hostigamiento y el Acoso Sexual en la palestra pública a pesar de los cuestionamientos y ataques que tanto profesores, administrativos y estudiantes reclamaban que no era un tema prioritario y que estaba fuera del contexto violento e inseguro que vive la comunidad universitaria. A través de seguimiento hemerográfico de medios de comunicación locales mediante portales web que dieron cobertura a los sucesos, retomando los comunicados de la asamblea universitaria y desde la experiencia vivida de participación en el movimiento universitario se pretende dar cuenta del proceso con el cual la movilización planteó una transformación sobre la violencia de género en la universidad, se ha retomado la problemática desde la misma población estudiantil y mostraremos algunas de las respuestas a sus demandas por parte de la Institución de Educación Superior.
The World of Conflicts in Chinua Achebe’s No Longer At Ease
Authors: Serge EPOUNDA Mexan
Published: July 2022

The history of human experience shows that it is only through fraternal relationships that human life can progress or flourish. However, that idea of fraternal relationship is only meaningful in a societal setting where men interact together and have mutual concourse with one another since a man is a man who thanks others, and life exists when you are together, alone you are an animal. But this life cannot go forward without troubles or conflicts, as advocated by many critics in their literary productions. To this effect, literature being an illustration of human life, presents the reality of human situations, problems, and relationships wherein conflictual relations constitute the subject matter of my study. It is certain that conflicts are inherent in every piece of literary work where internal and external conflicts are distinguished. That is why this research paper aims to identify and analyze the various degrees or levels of conflicts existing in Chinua Achebe’s novel No longer at Ease, especially interpersonal ones centered on the protagonist Obi Okonkwo.
ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITIES OF ETHANOL LEAF EXTRACTS OF PSIDIUM GUAJAVA L., TERMINALIA CATTAPA L. AND THEIR COMBINED FORMULATION
Authors: Timothy Odaro , Ugwu G. C.
Published: July 2022

Free radicals in the body are the cause of many chronic and debilitating conditions in humans by acting as oxidants in the body. This research was aimed at assessing the antioxidant potential of the leaf extracts of Psidium guajava, Terminalia catappa and a combination of both. The leaves of both plants were independently extracted with ethanol. Equal portions of the extracts of both species were also combined to obtain a formulation of ratio 1:1. The extracts were subjected to in vitro assays including  DPPH (2, 2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) and nitric oxide scavenging activities, while in vivo antioxidant assays were evaluated by measuring superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) levels in Wistar rats following oral administration of 200, 400 and 800 mg/kg b.wt. respectively of the 1:1 extract formulation. The three extracts demonstrated dose dependent DPPH scavenging activity, although the 1:1 extract formulation was shown to possess lower free radical scavenging activity compared to the individual plant extracts.  At the highest dose, the 1:1 extract formulation was shown to have exhibited a higher nitric oxide scavenging activity than the control, gallic acid. The 200 mg/kg b.wt. of 1:1 extracts formulation possess the highest antioxidant activity in the SOD and MDA assays. The study supports that ethanol leaf extracts of P. guajava and T. catappa possess potent antioxidant properties. However, additional work is required to obtain a more effective formulation from a combination of both extracts.

Objective: Nose deformity, including nasal deviation, is conspicuous since it locates in central face area. Regarding this and its prevention, nasal septum is one of the important supporting structures. Understand bending tolerance of the cartilaginous septum not only helps mitigate secondary deformity from surgical intervention, but also provides baseline information for further study regarding the nasal septum.Materials and Methods: Nineteen fresh cadavers were dissected to expose the cartilaginous nasal septum. It was connected with the set-up computer system for detection of electrical signal at 1-mm septal bending from the midline. Mechanical load (bending load) was applied over the dorsal septum to quantify its bending tolerance. The data of bending tolerance and Pearson’s correlation were reported.Results: The mean of septal thicknesses is 1.5 ± 0.4 with the average bending load of 19.0 ± 11.2 g. The majority of the septal thicknesses (15/19; 78.9%) of the dissections are within the range of 1.1 – 2.0 mm with bending load of 18.2 ± 8.9 g on average. There is a moderately positive association between septal thickness and bending load, the Pearson’s correlation coefficient is 0.602 (95%CI from 0.204 to 0.830) with p-value of 0.006.Conclusion: The overall nasal septum and the septum with thickness between 1.1 – 2 mm are able to tolerate loading over distal part of caudal septum about 19.0 and 18.2 g, respectively. Septal thickness shows moderately positive correlation with bending load.
Human Maxillary Sinus Development, Pneumatization, Anatomy, Blood Supply, Innervation and Functional Theories: An Update Review
Authors: Abdalla Mohammad Ahmad
Published: July 2022

The maxillary sinus is one of four pair’s air-filled spaces that surround the nasal cavity. The majority of previously published researches considering the maxillary sinus commonly concentrated on its pathological conditions and the recent surgical or medical management procedures. However, to understand the diseases of this sinus in a better manner, it is essential to have some basic medical details. Therefore, the present review is an attempt to focus light on this sinus by doing a cosmopolitan update on its development and anatomy, besides the functional theories by searching through many well-known scientific databases including Medline, Scopus, EMBASE, PubMed Central (PMC), PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science.

In the current review, the author tried to approach, recognize and explain the fundamental data that may provide better ideas to imagine the pathological problems related to the maxillary sinus. In addition, the author did not conduct a new study on human nor animal subjects because the previously implemented articles were the chief and the only source for this review.

In conclusion, the functions and physiology of the maxillary sinus are the subjects that reflect the anatomical complexity mentioned in the most recent articles may probably show that all its functions could be a part of a large and more complicated image than that apparent nowadays.
A stable home: Autocorrelated Kernel Density Estimated home ranges of the critically endangered Elongated tortoise
Authors: Montano Ysabella
Published: July 2022

Home range analysis is a standard and fundamental concept in ecology used to describe animal space use over their lifetimes. Connecting home range sizes with animal characteristics, location, and habitat can be used to inform conservation decisions. Reptiles are frequently lacking robust estimates of space use, particularly reptiles in tropical regions. Here we analyse a publicly available dataset, collected by the authors of this study, describing the movements of Critically Endangered Elongated tortoises Indotestudo elongata. The tortoise data included the locations of 17 tortoises (12 females, 5 males) collected on average once every three days for an average duration of 353.76 SE ± 33.10 days. We use these data to estimate the home range of Elongated tortoise, and explore how tortoise size and sex influences home range size. To mitigate issues resulting from low effective sample sizes and low temporal resolution of the data, we used a modern home range estimation method – Autocorrelated Kernel Density Estimators (AKDE). We found 14 of 17 individuals appear to be occupying a stable home range (using variograms to determine range residency). The average AKDE home range for all 14 individuals with range residency was 44.81 ± 10.44 ha. Bayesian Regression Models suggest comparable size estimates between male and female home ranges, despite males being physically larger than females in both mass and carapace length. These AKDE home range estimates have the added utility of being more comparable with other studies, less susceptible to errors from a suboptimal tracking regime, and are well positioned for inclusion in future meta-analyses.

Effects of moisture content on the quality of vermicompost produced from cattle manure
Authors: Hossen MS , Khan MRI , Azad MAK , Hashem MA , Bhuiyan MKJ , Rahman MM
Published: July 2022

This research aimed to evaluate the quality of vermicompost produced from cattle manure at different levels of moisture content. For this purpose, cattle manure containing different moisture content such as 60% moisture (T1), 70% moisture (T2) and 80% moisture (T3) treatments were adopted with 3 replications. A total of 9 vermicomposting pits were filled with 25 kg of cattle manure, each having the same amount of red worms. Parameters studied were dry matter (DM), crude fibre (CF), crude protein (CP), ether extract (EE), ash and pH. Results showed that 63% DM was increased in T2 and this value was significantly higher than T1 and T3 (p> 0.05). The rate of CF degradation was 46, 78 and 72% in T1, T2 and T3, respectively. The CF degradation was also significantly higher in T2 compared to the other two treatments (p> 0.05). In the case of CP, a slightly higher CP was found in T2 followed by T1 and a little bit lower in T3 after 60 days of vermicomposting period. The EE content was slightly higher in all 3 treatments after 60 days of vermicomposting, but this difference was not significantly different among the treatments. The ash content was slightly higher in all 3 treatments after 60 days of vermicomposting, but this difference was also not significantly varied. The pH was significantly differed with the 3 treatments after 60 days of vermicomposting. From the above results, it was revealed that T2 would be the suitable level of moisture for CF degradation and increased CP content in the final vermicompost. Therefore, it might be concluded that cattle manure containing 70% initial moisture would be a good option for vermicomposting.

Published: July 2022

This study examined the use of two rhetorical strategies - nominal-numerical types of supporting data and lengthy complex types of sentences due to their rhetorical appeal to Aristotelian logos in the writing of research abstracts. A total of 480 research abstracts sampled from English as a Native (ENL) and English as a Second Language (ESL) were analysed with LIWC2015 software application and Readable.com online applications. Guided by the Connor’s (1996)5 Contrastive Theory of Rhetoric with the integration of relevant conceptual models of the LIWC Model of Psycholinguistic Domains (Pennebaker et al., 2015)3, Aristotelian Rhetoric (Aristotle & Kennedy, 1991)2 and Compositionality (Bulté & Housen, 2018)14, it was found that both rhetorical strategies were used frequently in both types of ENL and ESL research abstracts to reflect the appeal to logical mind of the writers. Contrastive analyses revealed that ESL demonstrate more frequencies of lexical and sentential units than the ENL research abstracts. However, ENL research abstracts were found to have more frequencies of nominal-numerical types of supporting details and lengthy complex sentences than the ESL research abstracts which may most likely point towards their lack of near-nativeness rhetoric in these two rhetorical strategies. In terms of the linguistic item which demonstrates the ESL near-nativeness rhetoric is the use of coordination as the rhetorical strategy as both groups of ENL and ESL research abstracts did not show any significant differences. This shows that ESL writers can still strive towards the rhetorical level of nativeness in the choice of their linguistic strategies in the writing of research articles. Future research recommendations are also shown at the end of the research.

Nursing is one of the oldest and most sacred professions in the world. The nurses contribute immensely to society and healthcare organizations by providing their services in personal care, medical treatment management, and working with families and the communities. In Islam, the service of nurses is considered a phenomenal deed, and it is a Fardu Kifayah (Societal Obligation). However, Muslim female nurses face various challenges as they live as minority communities in pluralistic societies. Eventually, they are not interested in this sector. Accordingly, the study aims to identify the Islamic legal perspective on Muslim women's service as nurses in a minority context. Based on the qualitative research method, the data from primary sources of Islamic law, the Holy Qur'an and Sunnah, fatwas of Islamic scholars and international fiqh academies and the code of ethics for nurses found in topic-related data have been analysed using the content analysis method. This research deliberates the obstacles that Muslim women face when working as nurses in a minority environment, and the guidelines that they should adhere to when working as nurses in a minority context.

Children's folk songs are part of the oral literature of the Dusun Bundu. Nowadays, children's folk songs are increasingly difficult to hear. A study of Kadazandusun language in primary and secondary school textbooks found that folk songs are very poorly included. This situation is a loss to students who take the Kadazandusun Language subject because folk songs have cross-curricular elements, especially in mathematics. The objective of this study is to identify the basis of numeracy in several folk songs of Dusun Bundu children. Qualitative research is used by collecting data in the field through interview and observation methods. There are four folk songs used as analysis material. The folk songs were written in the form of verbatim texts before being analysed descriptively to clarify the objectives of the study. The results of the study found that all four folk songs of Dusun Bundu children have numeracy concepts such as kolondiso/isodin (one), kolonduo/duodin (two), lontu-lontu/tolukati (three), kaparangkat/apatkati (four) and so on. This study can contribute information on the concept of numeracy in the form of folk songs. Learning to use folk songs can encourage children to enjoy mathematics while preserving the cultural heritage of an ethnic group.

Gamma Knife Radiosurgery for Trigeminal Neuralgia : Review and Update
Authors: Lee Seunghoon , Lee Jung-Il
Published: July 2022

Accurate diagnosis of trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is the starting point for optimal treatment. Gamma knife radiosurgery (GKRS) is currently regarded as one of the first-line treatment options for medically refractory TN. GKRS is a less invasive treatment with a low risk of complications than other surgical procedures that provides a favorable pain control (BNI I–IIIb) rate of >75% at short-term follow-up. Drawbacks of GKRS include the latency period before pain relief and higher recurrence rate compared with microvascular decompression. Therefore, repeat treatment is necessary if the initial GKRS was effective but followed by recurrence. The concept of dose rate and the biologically effective dose of radiation has been actively studied in radiation oncology and is also applied in GKRS for TN to achieve high safety and efficacy by prescribing the optimal dose. Recent progress in functional imaging, such as diffusion tensor imaging, enables us to understand the pathophysiology of TN and predict the clinical outcome after GKRS. Here, we review TN, GKRS, and recent updates, especially in the concepts of radiation dose, diffusion tensor imaging studies, and repeat treatment in GKRS for TN.
TEACHERS’ PERSPECTIVE ON EMERGENCY REMOTE TEACHING DURING COVID-19 AT TERTIARY LEVEL
Authors: Kulić Danijela , Janković Anita
Published: July 2022

Revising the way we organize the teaching activities is never an easy task even under normal circumstances, and when the state of emergency and the use of digital technology are added to the mix, the situation becomes even more complicated. During this process, it is easy to forget that although the content of teaching remains the same, the ways of delivering that content will change. Accustomed to synchronous, direct communication in a traditional classroom, we are now faced with asynchronous channels and a modular approach to teaching with the help of digital tools that are (un)known to us and which, despite their apparent value, present barriers to teaching and learning for various reasons such as Internet access, digital skills, adequate equipment, and economic and social status. Despite the development of digital technology and the exponential growth of digital applications and tools that have paved the way for online education worldwide in recent years, our emergency response to the pandemic indicates the lack of readiness of educational institutions for this type of change. Therefore, the paper examines how university teachers perceive the emergency remote teaching imposed on them from March to September 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The research problem of this study concerns the affective attitudes of the lecturers at the University of Priština in Kosovska Mitrovica towards emergency remote teaching. Namely, the authors are set with the task of investigating how teachers perceive the new reality and how they have managed to acclimate to emergency remote teaching. For the purposes of this study, three major schools at the University were selected: the Faculty of Philosophy, the Faculty of Arts, and the Faculty of Medicine. The three schools represent the bulk of the University academic offer: sciences, humanities, and arts. The data is compiled by means of a survey, while the respondents are selected by the convenience sampling technique. The aim of the study is to present the analysis of the data obtained in order to develop a future training programme for university lecturers in principles and practices of the distance education and to improve the emergency response of the higher education institutions as a whole.

Information technology plays a critical role in educational management and administration. With information technology integral to shaping trust in the workplace, this paper aims to determine digital trust in educational institutions. Specifically, this article presents the measurement of digital trust level in terms of hardware, software, and people in educational institutions. It also shows the relationships and differences between digital trust and the respondents' socio-demographics, employment, and technological profiles. An online survey questionnaire was utilized using the Marcial-Launer Digital Trust in the Workplace Questionnaire, with 878 responses from academic institutions analyzed. A 4-point forced Likert scale and weighted mean were used to measure the level of trust. Chi-square and one-way ANOVA were utilized to determine significant relationships and differences, respectively. A multiple regression was calculated to predict the level of digital trust on the profiles of the respondents. The results illustrate a moderate level of confidence in electronic devices, hardware and software systems, information systems, and people with access to technology in academic workplaces, with a mean of 2.92. The results also show that socio-demographics, employment profiles, and technologic profiles appeared to be significantly related, at the same time showing differences in the level of digital trust. Gender, income level, and connectivity satisfaction were significant predictors of the level of digital trust in the academic sector. Therefore, it is concluded that there is reasonable trust in information technology in terms of hardware, software, and people in academic institutions. Teachers and non-teaching staff have adequate confidence in electronic devices, hardware and software, information systems, and people who have access to digital technology in the academic working environment. It is recommended that IT departments and similar offices orient, guide, and train employees on the use of electronic devices, for them to be familiar with and confident in using such technology. School administrators need to exert more effort to augment the trust levels among their employees.

Today, the old methods of management are transformed into qualitatively new achievements of management science. So, the question of the effectiveness of management of educational institutions is still open. One of the important areas of management reform is the use of the latest management technologies, such as information systems that are successfully integrated with proven management methods. The source of information for determining qualitative and quantitative indicators of the work of higher education institutions (HEI) should include special systems and services, which will provide the processing of indicators of scientific, educational, economic activities, etc. Indicators and criteria for their evaluation should be clearly defined and approved, and, accordingly, special algorithms and approaches to their calculation and analysis should be developed. Accordingly, the aim of the article is to suggest algorithms and tools for measuring quantitative and qualitative indicators of the work of HEI, and their implementation on the example of Kherson State University. In particular, the method of rating evaluation of research and teaching staff was considered in the paper. The main tools and technologies for automating the monitoring of research and educational personnel (REP) activities, as well as examples of their use, were described. The main feature of the described approach is the ability to ensure the automation and transparency of the main business processes of the HEI. Developed software, information, and analytical systems allow for assessing the qualitative and quantitative indicators of the HEI's work, taking into account its visibility in the domestic and international scientific and educational space, which includes the results of scientific activities (indicators for WoS, Scopus, etc.), educational activities indicators of graduates 'success, management of students' research works, student surveys, etc.).
