Background: Colic is a major health problem in controlled horse populations globally. It is a multifactorial and complex disorder. In Yemen, the prevalence, risk factors, and results of horse colic are unclear.
Objectives: The current study aimed to determine the prevalence, risk factors, and haemato-biochemical changes associated with colic in horses in Sana’a, Yemen.
Methods: A prospective study was conducted from September 2023 to February 2024. A total of 254 horses were examined under field conditions. Colic was identified based on physical examination, clinical symptoms, and rectal examination. A questionnaire was distributed to the horse owners to assess the risk factors while the clinical examination was performed, and blood samples were obtained to estimate the haemato biochemical parameters in horses with colic.
Results: out of a total of 254 horses, the overall prevalence of colic in horses was found to be 11.81% (30 cases) and of these, 73.3% had spasmodic colic whereas 26.7% had impaction. The Means of respiration rate, pulse rate, and capillary refill time were significantly increased in horses affected with colic than healthy control animals (P<0.05). The horses with colic showed a significant association between cases with age (p<0.098), gender (p<0.023), deworming frequency (p<0.001), and previous exposure to colic (p<0.001). In hematological indices, the mean packed cell volume in horses with colic was found to be dramatically increased (P<0.0001), while the means of total platelet count, lymphocyte count, and neutrophil count were found to be significantly decreased (P<0.001). Serum biochemical indices, including aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, glucose, albumin, total protein, and alkaline phosphate, were significantly higher in horses with colic compared to healthy controls (P<0.0001).
Conclusions: This is the first study that documented the prevalence of colic in horses and identified risk factors and haemato-biochemical changes associated with colic in Sana’a province, Yemen. This information is a crucial first step in understanding the impact of colic in horses and developing ways to reduce the risk of colic.

Published: December 2024

The objective of this study is to examine interpersonal relationships, tendency to risk-taking behavior, and anxiety among substance abusers and non-abusers.  A cross-sectional research design was used, and the study was conducted on young adults/ students living and studying in Rawalpindi and Islamabad from September 2019 to December 2019. A convenient and snowball sampling technique was used for data collection from community sample young adults (n = 138; age range from 17-35 years). Self-report measures that are Zung self-rating anxiety scale, Susceptibility to peer pressure self-esteem and health locus of control, and risk-taking questionnaire were used for the data collection. Participants were categorized as substance abusers and non-abusers through independent sample t-tests. A Bivariate Pearson correlation was also calculated. Risk-taking behavior and peer pressure are positively correlated with each other. Anxiety and Risk-taking have negatively correlated to each other. Anxiety affects both abusers and non-abusers equally. Substance abusers scored high on peer pressure and risk-taking behavior as compared to non-abusers. Females are more susceptible to peer pressure as compared to males irrespective of drug intake. Substance abuse has little to do with anxiety. The study was conducted only in Islamabad and Rawalpindi regions where respondents were only young adults/ students, yet, in the future, researchers could use a large sample size and could conduct the study in more than two regions. They could also expand it to the whole country and might include older citizens too to get verifiable facts generalize the results.

Published: December 2024

The research in hand was aimed at studying different ectoparasites from Labeo Rohita collected from local markets of Dera Ismail Khan, KPK, Pakistan. To assess the prevalence of ectoparasites on rohu (Labeo Rohita) fish. 30 freshwater rohu specimens were gathered from various locations in Dera Ismail Khan, KPK, Pakistan, between the months of December 2023 and May 2024. The ectoparasite status of 30 fish species was assessed. 18 fish out of thirty were Lernaea infected. Lernaea had a total prevalence of 26.66 percent. In the group of fish weighing 1000–1200 grams, the prevalence of Lernaea was 37.5%, but in the group weighing 100–300 grams, it was 16.66%. In the fish length group of 66-85 cm, Lernaea was most common (33.33%), whereas in the 25-45 cm group, it was least common (14.28%). In addition, Lernaea varied with the seasons; in January, it was at its highest (33.33%), while in March and April, it was at its lowest (20%) and nonexistent (0%).  The results showed that the prevalence of infection was higher in rohu (Labeo Rohita) fish that were both heavier and longer than in fish that were both lighter and shorter. This may be because parasites have a larger surface area to anchor and hide on larger fish. The study will significantly contribute to the theory and practice both as it has far reached results, though the study was conducted only in one city due to time and financial constraints, however, in the future, researchers could conduct it at large scale from the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province to get generalizability of the results. Further, it is suggested that it may be replicated in varying environments of other provinces of the country too.

The aflatoxin study was conducted to detect aflatoxin M1 in a variety of milk samples obtained from various milk shops in Lahore, Pakistan. A total of 190 samples were collected from different zones of Lahore. All samples were processed through ELISA to detect aflatoxins. A questionnaire containing 14 open-ended questions, and 27 closed-ended questions was designed. The data was analyzed using the chi-square method with mean ± standard deviation (SD) to identify the association between risk factors and positive results for aflatoxin M1 concentrations in the fresh milk samples. The level of significance was set at P ≤ 0.05. All milk samples were found to be positive for aflatoxins. About 90% of the samples were found to exceed the permissible limit of 50 ng/kg for aflatoxins. Using the questionnaire, an association between risk factors such as education, preventive measures in milk collection, cleaning areas, disinfection, commercial feed, toxin binders, and different seasons was evaluated. The results were non-significant for all factors except the use of toxin binders. It was observed that the use of toxin binders can reduce the aflatoxin levels in milk. It is concluded that all milk samples contain significant amounts of aflatoxins in Lahore, Pakistan. There is a strong need to establish strict rules and regulations to control the levels of aflatoxin B1 in animal feed. Milk producers, the dairy industry, and milk shop owners must be aware of the health risks and preventive measures associated with aflatoxins.

Moderating Effect of Audit Report Timeliness on Audit Committee Attributes and Earnings Volatility of Quoted Oil and Gas Firms in Nigeria
Authors: Orijinta Hope Ifeoma , Otiedhe Gabriel Moses , Udoezika Dave
Published: December 2024

This paper evaluated the moderating effect of audit report timeliness on audit committee attributes and earnings volatility of quoted oil and gas firms in Nigeria from 2013 to 2022. Data were sourced from 10 quoted oil and gas multinationals. The study extracted data from the annual reports of the oil and gas firms. Meanwhile, the study adopted the moderated regression estimation technique. The study evidenced that audit committee financial expertise and the frequency of meetings reduce earnings volatility. However, audit committee independence increases earnings volatility due to stricter accounting practices imposed by independent members. The moderated regression analysis indicates that timely audit report issuance significantly mitigates the effect of audit committee effectiveness on earnings volatility. This implies that while an influential audit committee reduces earnings volatility, its impact is enhanced when audit reports are issued promptly. The study concludes that audit committee effectiveness and audit report timeliness are crucial for managing earnings volatility. Consequently, those with financial and industry experience should be encouraged to join the audit committee. Their expertise can help in better oversight and stabilization of earnings. Lastly, the management of sampled firms should develop a robust governance framework that integrates influential audit committee practices with timely audit reporting.

Factors Affecting Green Growth Policy in Vietnam
Authors: Trung Phan Nhan
Published: December 2024

Green growth is becoming a global priority as countries increasingly recognize the importance of combining economic development with environmental protection. Green growth policies and strategies are designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, promote the use of renewable energy, and improve resource efficiency, contributing to the goal of sustainable development and combating climate change. Government green growth policies are influenced by many economic, social, environmental, and political factors that determine the effectiveness and sustainability of these measures. Essential factors include public awareness, international pressure, economic and financial policies, technology and innovation, local environmental issues, politics and leadership, and public-private partnerships (PPPs). Vietnam has implemented the "National Strategy on Green Growth" for 2021-2030 with clear goals and has achieved many significant results, such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions and increasing forest coverage. However, there are still many limitations in terms of capital, technology, and supporting policy mechanisms. By proposing a qualitative research model on influencing factors and quantitative methods, specifically multivariate linear regression analysis, the author has shown the model results of these influencing factors on green growth policy, contributing to proposing recommendations to improve green growth policy in Vietnam.

Authors: Hayu Ramah , Ilona Sandra , Fransisca Dewi
Published: December 2024

Exclusive breastfeeding is crucial for optimal growth and development of infants, as it provides essential nutrition and immunity. However, in Padang City, the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding varies significantly. Data from 2021 shows that the highest coverage is at Bungus Health Center, with 86.9%, while the lowest is at Dadok Tunggul Hitam Health Center, at only 25.67%. This discrepancy raises concerns about the nutritional status of infants who do not receive exclusive breastfeeding, as nutritional status is a key indicator of overall health and development. This study investigates the differences in nutritional status between infants who receive exclusive breastfeeding and those given formula milk at Dadok Tunggul Hitam Health Center. This descriptive-analytic research employs a cross-sectional approach with 96 infants over 6 months old. Data was collected through interviews using questionnaires and analyzed with T-test. The results show that the average nutritional status of infants receiving exclusive breastfeeding is -2.23, while for those receiving formula milk, it is -2.04. This significant difference indicates that infants who receive exclusive breastfeeding have better nutritional status. The study recommends that healthcare workers, especially midwives at the health centre, be more proactive in providing information about the benefits of exclusive breastfeeding to improve infant nutritional status, particularly in areas with low coverage.

Stagnation in agriculture is the principal explanation for poor economic performance in many developing economies of the world, and rising agricultural productivity is the core reason for successful industrialization. The study analyzed the contribution of agricultural subsector to the economic development of Nigeria. Secondary data were sourced from various issues of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) annual reports and statement of account, Statistical Bulletin between 1981 – 2020. The study employed a unit root test for stationarity, cointegration test of long-run relationship to avoid spurious regression, Ordinary Least Square to investigate the impact of all the independent variables (Agricultural subsectors) on the dependent variable (GDP). The Granger causality test was used to test the causal relationship between the time series data. The null hypothesis for the unit root and cointegration were rejected. The result of the regression analysis showed a good fit with high R2, and some of the variables were significant. Some of the variables have unidirectional causality between each other, but there is no causal relationship between some of them. The study recommends that forest resources should be better harnessed to contribute more to the nation's gross domestic product. Also, the use of improved livestock breeds should be encouraged to improve their output further.

Authors: Nguyễn Duy Khôi , Uông Trần Gia Trí
Published: December 2024

The study quantitatively probes into the potential prospect of whether students’ pre-knowledge concerning a given topic in the English writing task has any correlation, either positive or negative, to their ensuing score. With one functional research question and a pool sample of non-English major undergraduates whose relevant language proficiency and backgrounds are curriculum-inclined to be homogeneous overall, the study relies on the test as the research instrument, the scores of which are regarded as data. Subsequent analyses which employ one-sample t-test and Pearson’s correlational test against the conventional p-value of 0.05 yield results that align with what is posited prior, and serve to provide further evidence of the possibility of the phenomenon in the localized context of Vietnamese higher education. The study, despite its confidence in academic integrity, has not delved deeply into the intricacies surrounding the presented notion – all of which duly addressed. It, however, sufficiently points out the novelty of the research and urges additional works to explore the subject further with this as the foundation.

Published: December 2024

Knowledge of the coordination chemistry of 2,6-diacetylpyridine-bis(phenylhydrazone) (L) is limited, and this compound seems promising in many fields. We explored the reaction of methanolic solutions of chromium(III) nitrate and L in a 1:1 molar ratio and obtained the thin red crystals of the complex. It was characterized by FTIR, elemental analysis, and molar conductivity. Comparing the ligand and the complex spectra confirmed that coordination has occurred through azomethine and pyridine nitrogen atoms. Molar conductivity of DMF solution indicates that the complex is an electrolyte of the type 1:1. The chromium(III) is most likely situated in an octahedral environment of six nitrogen atoms of the two ligand anions, viz. [Cr(L–H)2]NO3. These findings enable the further investigation of the complex properties. Besides, future research will explore the impact of changing synthetic conditions on the reaction product and their characterization.

Materiality and Immateriality: Exploring Material Culture in the Construction of Cultural Meanings
Authors: Sánchez-Climent Álvaro
Published: December 2024

Material culture encompasses more than objects; it represents the dynamic interactions between people and artifacts, embedding cultural practices, values, and social structures within tangible forms. Rooted primarily in archaeology and anthropology, Material Culture is closely associated with technology, understood as the processes and systems underlying artifact creation and use. This relationship underscores technology´s role as a cultural process, involving the organization of knowledge, practices, and social interactions.
While Material Culture focuses on artifacts as cultural symbols, technology explores their production processes. Holistic technologies, characterized by individual artisans’ control over production, contrast with prescriptive technologies, which employ segmented labour, reflecting advancements in social and economic organization. The distinction highlights the interplay between technological practices and societal dynamics.
Anthropological studies demonstrate how cultural factors influence technological practices, including gendered roles in the creation of artifacts. Artifacts encode information, not only serving utilitarian purposes but also acting as media for memory, identity, and power relations. The meanings embedded in the objects often transcend their materiality, reflecting complex social and cultural ideologies.
By bridging the tangible and intangible, Material Culture provides a critical framework for understanding the relationship between culture, technology, and society. This perspective reveals how technological processes shape human experience and contribute to the materialization of cultural values and beliefs, offering valuable insights into the evolution of social systems and identities.
Can Academia be Revolutionary? Barriers to Encourage an Alternative Economics from University Perspective

Published: December 2024

There are many publishedcritical works on the hegemonic economics approach. Nevertheless, despite such, its hegemony continues. It does so, in part, and precisely, because of the support it receives from academia. This work questions the reasons for this academic behaviour, and offers the following responses: First, it points to an imbalance between hegemony and its alternatives. The latter is expected to be exhaustive and show sufficient arguments for all its proposals, whereas the first benefits from several cyclic functioning reproduced by inertia. Second, it shows how politics and academia follow two different schools of thought that defend very different conceptions of speed to get results; the exercise of freedom; the management of dissent; ingroup relations; and communications with the public. Third, it reflects on the fact that academia lacks cohesion, is mostly conservative, and is managed by the most obedient and efficient sector of its members. Fourth, it discusses how an academic minority interested in promoting alternatives is tasked with making the operations of hegemony visible to colleagues accustomed to obeying and focused on their compartmentalised work; in return, the minority is often punished by academic norms. Five, it focuses on how academia is absorbed by it through new public management models that marketize academic quality and fill the academic agenda, instead of transforming it. As solutions, the paper suggests the following: (1) creating visible alternatives and building group strength; (2) promoting new quality standards that release the academy from hegemonic conceptions of economics; (3) establishing partnerships with non-academic agents; and (4) transforming how we are teaching economics.

Published: December 2024

The state's obligation to protect children's rights is not only based on national law but must also be in line with international commitments. The aim of the research is to analyze the extent to which the state fulfills its responsibilities in ensuring the protection of children's rights in accordance with international provisions, such as the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), and national regulations, such as the Child Protection Law in Indonesia. The research method used is a normative juridical approach with analysis of legal documents, statutory regulations, and literature studies. The research results show that although the international legal framework has been adopted into national law, its implementation still faces various obstacles, including a lack of inter-institutional coordination, limited resources, and a lack of public understanding of children's rights. This journal recommends strengthening national regulations and increasing institutional capacity to ensure more optimal protection of children's rights.

Yapı sistemi üzerinde birleşim tasarımından genel yapı tasarımına dek, süneklik özelliklerinin sağlanması gerekir. Ülkemizde yaygın olarak tercih edilen kutu kesitli profillerin iç kuvvetler tesiri altında oluşan ani kapasitelerin kayıplarına ve gevrek kırılmalarına yol açarak telafi edilemez hasarlara neden olabilir. Bu nedenle yapı elemanlarının tasarımlarında gerçekleşebilecek burkulma durumunun dikkate alınarak tasarımları yapılmalıdır. Yapılan bu çalışmada, kutu profillerin lokal burkulmalarının önlenmesi amacıyla başlık levhalarıyla güçlendirilmiştir. Bu güçlendirmenin eksenel kuvvet etkisi altındaki kutu kesitli profillerde kaynaklı birleşim lokal burkulmaları ve taşıma kapasitesi üzerindeki etkileri incelenmiştir. Analizler, tersinir statik artımsal yükler etkisinde sayısal olarak yapılmıştır. Kaynak dikişinde meydana gelmesi olası yırtılmalar önlendiğinde başlık levhasıyla güçlendirme tekniğinin etkili sonuçlar verdiği görülmüştür.

Linseed, one of the oldest and most valuable plants, is cultivated for both oilseeds and fiber. Despite its significant nutritional and industrial importance, there has been little research on the impact of foliar nutrition and the timing of its application throughout the day on the plant’s morpho-physiological characteristics. Therefore, a two-year field experiment on linseed crop was conducted at Agricultural Research Station, Keshwana, Jalore (Rajasthan) to study the effect of foliar application of Nitrogen, Sulfur, Boron, Zinc and a growth promoter-triacontanol on growth and yield attributes of linseed. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design (RBD) with three replications and 12 treatments. These nutrients were applied individually (2% triacontanol, 2% urea, 0.2% boron , 0.5% zinc, 2% sulfur ) as well as in combination with each other like 2% triacontanol + 0.2% boron + 0.5% zinc, 2% triacontanol + 0.5% zinc + 2% sulfur, 2% triacontanol + 2% urea + 0.5% zinc, 2% triacontanol + 2% urea + 0.2% boron, 2% triacontanol + 2% urea + 2% sulfur, 2% triacontanol + 2% urea + 0.2% boron + 0.5% zinc + 2% sulfur. The results revealed that the plant height (cm), Branches per plant, Dry matter accumulation, Capsules per plant and seed yield were reported maximum under foliar application of 2% triacontanol + 2% urea + 0.2% boron + 0.5% zinc + 2% sulfur over the control during the investigation. It has been concluded that foliar application of growth hormones and nutrients were enhance the growth parameters and yield attributes of linseed resulted higher seed yield.

Wheat genotypes Halna, HD2967, K911, K9006, NW 1014 and HD 2733 were grown in field condition in differential date of sowing for detection genetic variability for high temperature tolerance traits in wheat during Rabi season 2021-22. The high temperature stress was given to wheat genotypes by 60 days late from normal sowing (15 November) for exposing terminal stage of crop under high temperature stress. The high temperature stress significantly influenced membrane stability index (MSI), canopy temperature depression (CTD), total chlorophyll content and ultimately grain yield irrespective of wheat varieties. The high MSI, CTD and less reduction in chlorophyll were recorded in Halna, K911and NW 1014. It is also linked with long stay green duration at grain filling stage. The maximum percent reduction in total chlorophyll content and grain yield were observed in HD2967, HD2733 and K9006 as it showed low MSI and CTD under high temperature stress. The high Catalase and Peroxidase activities were appeared in Halna, K 911 and NW 1014 over other varieties under high temperature. The high MSI and CTD had positive correlation with grain yield. Therefore, high MSI, CTD, Catalase, Peroxidase activity and long green duration can be used as physiological traits for evaluating wheat varieties for high temperature tolerance.
