Promoting participation through the universal design of built environments: Making it happen
Authors: Watchorn Valerie , Larkin Helen , Hitch Danielle , Ang Susan
Published: July 2023

Environmental design is a determinant of social inclusion and people’s participation in life roles. Design that does not cater for a diverse range of ages, abilities and cultures restricts people’s access to, and use of, domestic or public premises. Universal design is an approach that acknowledges diversity of populations and encourages designers to create objects and places that are usable by the greatest majority of users. Although there are potential benefits to the widest application of universal design within society, such application is not mandatory within Australia. This paper presents findings from an Australian qualitative study that explored universal design as a means of facilitating greater environmental access for all. The views of experts working within the field of architecture and environmental access were explored regarding factors that restrict or facilitate application of universal design to the design of built environments. Study findings revealed a number of themes relating to factors that may restrain, ‘what’s holding us back?’ and factors that may facilitate application of universal design, ‘making it happen’. These findings have direct relevance to those involved in the planning and design of built environments, policy developers and educators.
Panning for Gold: The personal journey of mental health wellness and its relationship with Planning Alternatives Tomorrows with Hope (PATH)
Authors: Armstrong Matthew Lyndon , Dorsett Pat
Published: July 2023

This study explored how the Planning Alternatives Tomorrows with Hope (PATH) process could enhance and strengthen an individual’s personal journey of recovery. This article utilised the knowledge base of members of a Community of Practice, located in Brisbane Australia. Members had a deep concern and passion to promote and strengthen wellbeing for people who live with the experience of mental ill health. They were invited to form a focus group to explore the use of PATH and its relationship with mental health wellness. After contemplating and reflecting on an example of the PATH process, the focus group explored opportunities for PATH to become one of many wellness resources for people experiencing and overcoming mental ill health. Through the exploration of personal meaning, storytelling and community connection (anchored in the visuals and graphics of the PATH example), the study found that PATH can make a valuable contribution by restoring some of the power inbalances in traditonal service frameworks and enhancing personal self direction.
Australian Muslim civil society organisations: Pathways to social inclusion
Authors: Amath Nora
Published: July 2023

There is great interest on issues related to Muslims and Islam; however, a large concentration of the scholarly literature as well as media and political discourses focus predominantly on political issues and actions related to fundamentalism, radicalisation, militancy and terrorism. The dominance of these issues in the discourses does not provide a holistic understanding of Muslims, particularly their role, place and identity as minorities in a Western society. Indeed, we know relatively little about the larger number of Muslim political actors engaged in civil society, especially those involved in creating pathways to social inclusion. Utilising descriptive phenomenology, this paper explores the complex issues of social inclusion and the Australian Muslim communities. Underpinning this discussion is the theory of social capital; as noted by a number of scholars and social policy experts, the theory of social inclusion alone is inadequate and ineffective in creating participation, equality and cohesion. This paper also observes that while many reports and studies provide pragmatic suggestions on how to work towards the social inclusion of Australian Muslims, the concentration on these suggestions tend to focus on how the government can provide these solutions. What is lacking in the literature is the recognition of the Australian Muslim community’s role and agency in initiating and executing the programs needed to address such issues of social exclusion. The 30 unstructured phenomenological interviews demonstrate that Australian MCSOs are proactively engaging with their communities to ensure that they are responding appropriately to these issues. Moreover, they are creating pathways and access for Australian Muslims to better participate, engage in and contribute to mainstream society. In particular, the MCSO actors revealed four themes related to social inclusion: supporting participation in education and training, facilitating participation in employment and in voluntary work, connecting community with other people and resources, and assisting with advocacy. Although the themes are clearly in line with the Australian Government’s Social Inclusion Policy, the Australian MCSOs insisted that it was not the government which set their agenda necessarily; rather, it was motivated by their faith.

Attitudes of Chadians Studying in Cameroon Towards English
Authors: Temesas Nelson Akeh
Published: July 2023

The elimination of barriers between many states in the world today has led to significant movements of people from one place to another, especially for educational motives or in search of greener pastures. Such movements often lead to the encounter with new languages and cultures, as it is the case with Chadians who move to Cameroon for further studies. Given the bilingual nature of Cameroon, which is their host nation, most of these students not only get to meet English, which is one of the official languages, but are also bound to study it so as to guarantee success in their studies. This study investigates the attitudes of some Chadians studying in the University of Yaoundé I towards English. The informants for the study are made up of 100 students drawn from four different departments of the Faculty of Arts, Letters and Social Sciences. The results from the analysis of the data reveal that 60% of the students show negative attitudes towards English, given that it is somewhat new to them and 40% of the students had a positive attitude towards English, especially because they consider the importance of English in the world today and also because they use it for examination purposes.

Published: July 2023

Independent learning is a concept of learning that creates an atmosphere of free and independent learning for students. In addition, the independent curriculum also implements the development of soft skills and character through a project to strengthen the profile of Pancasila students. One of the schools that implements the Independent Curriculum is SMP Negeri 1 Tanah Grogot. The purpose of this research is to 1)Describe the application of science learning using the Independent Curriculum at SMP Negeri 1 Tanah Grogot. (2) Describe students' responses to learning science. (3) Describe the factors that support science learning. (4) Describe the factors that hinder science learning. This type of research uses qualitative research with descriptive methods. Based on the research results, there were 3 strategies implemented at Tanah Grogot 1 Public Middle School, namely the Education Unit Operational Curriculum (KOSP), learning processes and tools in science subjects (Intracurricular), and the application of projects to strengthen Pancasila student profiles (p5). Internal supporting factors, namely the majority of young teachers who want to train themselves, master the use of information technology, as well as motivation within the teacher to be able to provide a fun learning experience for students. While the external supporting factors include the existence of independent training for teachers and the presence of fellow teachers, principals, and school supervisors who are members of the learning community. As for the inhibiting factors, namely the teacher still does not understand how to implement the Independent Curriculum in schools, especially the implementation of the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project, the small number of teachers, as well as obstacles in adjusting teaching schedules and differences in the learning system between grade 7 using the Independent Curriculum and grades 8 and 9 which is still gradual.

Objetivo desse estudo é desmontar, por meio de artigos científicos, os aspectos que tange a cirurgia plástica estética e a satisfação corporal advinda desses procedimentos pelos indivíduos submetidos. Foi realizada uma profunda pesquisa de artigos nas bases de dados Medical Literature Analysis and Retrievel System Online (MEDLINE), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) e PubMed, com os seguintes Descritores em Ciências da Saúde (DeCS): Body; Body image; Surgical procedures. Foram selecionados artigos entre os períodos de 1998 a 2023, nos idiomas Frances, Espanhol, Inglês e Português, para ampliar o nível de relevância e a qualidade da revisão, visto a escassez de estudos científicos sobre a temática. Este estudo de revisão possibilitou expor o momento atual das cirurgias plásticas estéticas, além da compreensão do perfil dos indivíduos que são submetidos. A insatisfação do corpo se torna um distúrbio de imagem, correlacionados a sentimentos e emoções, são motivos que levam a busca de “correção” através de procedimentos estéticos. Todavia, a cirurgia plástica pode amenizar quadros de insatisfação e é uma ferramenta contra diversos contextos corporais.
Como Eu Faço no Coração de Atleta: Avaliação dos Diferentes Tipos de Adaptação ao Exercício
Authors: Mancuso Frederico José Neves
Published: July 2023

A prática regular de esportes pode induzir adaptações no coração, sendo essa condição comumente chamada de “coração de atleta”. As alterações observadas incluem dilatação das câmaras cardíacas, aumento da espessura miocárdica, melhora do enchimento ventricular, aumento da trabeculação do ventrículo esquerdo (VE), dilatação da veia cava inferior, entre outras. Essas alterações também podem ser observadas em algumas doenças cardíacas, como cardiomiopatia (CMP) dilatada, hipertrófica e outras. Dessa forma, os exames de imagem cardíaca são fundamentais na identificação dessas alterações e na diferenciação entre o “coração de atleta” e uma possível cardiopatia.

Published: July 2023

Fundamento
A avaliação da área valvar mitral por meio da reconstrução multiplano na ecocardiografia tridimensional é restrita a softwares específicos e à experiência dos ecocardiografistas. Eles precisam selecionar manualmente o frame do vídeo que contenha a área de abertura máxima da valva mitral, dimensão fundamental para a identificação de estenose mitral.

Objetivo
Automatizar o processo de determinação da área de abertura máxima da valva mitral, por meio da aplicação de Processamento Digital de Imagens (PDI) em exames de ecocardiograma, desenvolvendo um algoritmo aberto com leitura de vídeo no formato avi.

Método
Este estudo piloto observacional transversal foi realizado com vinte e cinco exames diferentes de ecocardiograma, sendo quinze com abertura normal e dez com estenose mitral reumática. Todos os exames foram realizados e disponibilizados por dois especialistas, com autorização do Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa, que utilizaram dois modelos de aparelhos ecocardiográficos: Vivid E95 (GE Healthcare) e Epiq 7 (Philips), com sondas multiplanares transesofágicas. Todos os vídeos em formato avi foram submetidos ao PDI através da técnica de segmentação de imagens.

Resultados
As medidas obtidas manualmente por ecocardiografistas experientes e os valores calculados pelo sistema desenvolvido foram comparados utilizando o diagrama de Bland-Altman. Observou-se maior concordância entre valores no intervalo de 0,4 a 2,7 cm2.

Conclusão
Foi possível determinar automaticamente a área de máxima abertura das valvas mitrais, tanto para os casos advindos da GE quanto da Philips, utilizando apenas um vídeo como dado de entrada. O algoritmo demonstrou economizar tempo nas medições quando comparado com a mensuração habitual.

Authors: Castillo José Maria Del , Boschilia Thiago , Sabeh Nemi , Silveira Carlos Antônio da Mota , Brindeiro Djair
Published: July 2023

Fundamento: O exercício intenso e continuado em atletas provoca fenótipos de remodelamento adaptativo, cujos
parâmetros podem ser avaliados pela ecocardiografia convencional, e de deformação miocárdica. Assim, foi comparado
o remodelamento miocárdico em atletas do sexo feminino (grupo atletas) com mulheres sedentárias da mesma faixa
etária (grupo-controle) e entre atletas com maior e menor tempo de treinamento.
Métodos: Foram selecionadas 57 futebolistas femininas (grupo atletas) e 25 mulheres sadias sedentárias (grupocontrole). As atletas foram divididas em dois grupos: grupo principal, com 32 atletas, e grupo sub-17, com 25 atletas.
Foram determinadas, através de ecocardiografia, as dimensões, a função sistólica e diastólica das câmaras cardíacas e
a deformação miocárdica (strain longitudinal, circunferencial, radial e mecânica rotacional), utilizando a estatística Z
com significância de p < 0,05.
Resultados: A idade dos grupos atletas, controle, principal e sub-17 foi de 22,1±6,3; 21,2±5,0; 26,5±5,1; e 16,5±0,6,
respectivamente. O peso, o índice de massa corporal e a frequência cardíaca foram menores no grupo atletas. A
espessura das paredes, o índice de massa do ventrículo esquerdo (VE), o volume do átrio esquerdo (AE), a fração de
ejeção e as dimensões do ventrículo direito (VD) foram maiores no grupo atletas, mas dentro de valores normais. A
deformação miocárdica mostrou diminuição do strain radial, da rotação basal, da rotação apical e do twist, sugerindo
mecanismo de reserva contrátil. Esses parâmetros foram menores no grupo principal, que também apresentava maior
espessura das paredes, maior volume do AE e maior tamanho do VD, sugerindo que o aumento da reserva contrátil se
relaciona com maior tempo de treinamento.
Conclusões: As atletas do sexo feminino com treinamento intenso de longa duração apresentam remodelamento
adaptativo das câmaras cardíacas e aumento da reserva contrátil observada em repouso, com esses parâmetros mais
acentuados nas atletas com maior tempo de treinamento.

Authors: Dr. Priyanka Sharma  , Dr. Amit Kumar
Published: July 2023

Until recently, academic research in India was primarily concerned with crimes against females of reproductive age, such as rape or sex trafficking, while downplaying sexual abuse of pre-pubertal or adolescent boys and girls. However, in recent years, child sexual abuse has been recognised and reported as a criminal justice issue, with an increasing number of such incidents being published in the country. This article proposes a conceptual framework delineating the risk factors, outcomes, and protective factors of child sexual abuse in India based on a systematic review of the existing literature. The paper concludes with policy and research implications.

Vultures in Gidh Karai, Jhalawar, Rajasthan, India: Threats, Recommendations and Conservation Measures
Authors: - Taruna Patidar , - Surabhi Shrivastava
Published: July 2023

Vultures used to dominate the environment as the most frequent scavengers prior to the 1980s, but their numbers catastrophically dropped to >95%. A veterinary NSAID named Diclofenac, which was nephrotoxic to birds and caused renal failure and avian gout, was employed in this situation. Diclofenac was outlawed in 2006 by the governments of India, Pakistan, and Nepal in an effort to preserve the declining vulture population. The development of non-toxic meloxicam as a substitute for diclofenac has led to the stabilisation of Gyps vulture populations in various regions of Southern Asia. There are nine different species of vultures in India (both resident and migratory), three of which are categorised as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species and are thus given the strictest legal protection under Schedule-I of the Indian Wildlife Protection Act. However, Rajasthan is home to seven different vulture species. The study area, i.e., Gidh Karai, located in the Jhalawar district of Rajasthan (India), is an ideal location for breeding and roosting Indian and Egyptian vultures. And this study briefly highlights the underlying threats, recommendations and conservation measures that need to be implemented for the protection of these vultures. It is also a sincere effort to draw attention towards the crisis of vultures and the overall need for conservation.
Multibus Power Transmission System’s Voltage Stability Limit Prediction Using Artificial Neural Network
Authors: - Kabir Chakraborty , - Apurba Kumar Das
Published: July 2023

The objective of this paper is to predict the voltage stability limit of a multi-bus power transmission system using Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). When a system is overloaded or a change in the systems condition, there is an uncontrollable drop or collapse of voltage occurs. The weakest, weaker, and weakest bus in the IEEE - 30 bus systems can be identified by using the Newton Raphson method of load flow analysis. The IEEE 30 bus system is simulated using MATLAB programming. In the Jacobian matrix of the said system, there are four sub matrixes that are J1, J2, J3 and J4. By using the values of diagonal elements of J4 matrix, dq / dv of the load buses has been calculated and inverted these values to find the dv/dq index for finding out the weak segment of the network. Finding the critical bus voltage magnitude and active power loading values is the goal of the study's second phase. Plotting the PV curve of the matching buses is how this is accomplished. For this reason, the weakest bus active power loading has been gradually increased while the active power loading of the other buses has remained constant. The goal of the paper's final page was to use an artificial neural network (ANN) to discover the crucial bus voltages for any unforeseen loads. In this case, a multilayer feed forward network and a back propagation algorithm were used to determine the critical voltage magnitude values.

A beautiful smile surely enhances the individual’s self-confidence. The harmony of smile is attributable to the shape, color, and position of the teeth in conjunction with the gingival tissue. Gingival pigmentation occurs in all races of man, varies from one race to another & caused by a variety of external and endogenous sources. Excessive deposition of melanocytic pigmentation has a significant impact on aesthetics and also produces psychological distress. A periodontal plastic surgery procedure called gingival depigmentation eliminates or reduces hyperpigmentation. Although there are numerous depigmentation procedures available to treat this problem, but there is a lack of research to aid clinicians in selecting the best effective approach. As a result, the goal of this review is to assess the existing depigmentation therapies. Cryosurgery, followed by lasers, has been reported by many studies to be superior procedures, with better aesthetic results and a low recurrence rates. However, additional randomized controlled long term studies are needed to better understand the efficiency and effectiveness of present approaches.
Headhunting among the Konyak Nagas: Tradition of Tattooing
Authors: - Abel Kavahru
Published: July 2023

This study seeks to examine tattoos as a type of tradition that provides the person with an identity and socio-political standing. It also tries to comprehend the dwindling art of tattooing through the eyes of the Konyaks of Nagaland, India. The Konyak are divided into two groups based on their tattoos: Shen-tu, who have tattoos on their faces, and Tangta-tu, who have tattoos on their bodies. Tattoos may distinguish an aristocratic clan member from other clan members, a warrior from an average man, and an unmarried female from a lady who is engaged. Tattoos were used by the Konyak people to identify members of a certain tribe, hamlet, clan, or person. It was a sign of valour and military triumph. When this art style was at its peak, people wandered around naked, making tattoos apparent. Tattooing was intrinsically tied with headhunting for males. The most crucial achievement for males was to be honoured with the 'warrior' tag, which symbolises their bravery, strength, and victory in battle. Their achievements are reflected in their tattoo designs. Tattoos on women represent their biological transition from one stage of life to the next. Tattoos are still present nowadays; however they are limited to the elder age. This presentation is thus a trip back in time to tattooing culture, where we will investigate the motives, procedure, philosophy, and rituals involved in the dwindling art of tattooing.
Gendivergence: A Comprehensive Framework for Redefining the LGBTQIA+ Spectrum and Community
Authors: - Nitnem Singh Sodhi, Psy.D.(Hon.)
Published: July 2023

The LGBTQIA+ community has historically faced discrimination and stigmatization due to societal misunderstandings and prejudices regarding gender identity. To address this issue, I propose a new categorization called "Gendivergence" as an inclusive and empowering framework for comprehending and supporting individuals with diverse gender identities. It is combination of Gender + Divergence. By redefining the LGBTQIA+ spectrum under the umbrella term of "Gendivergence," we aim to challenge stereotypes, reduce stigma, and promote acceptance and inclusivity. This research paper presents the rationale, methodology, and potential implications of implementing Gendivergence as a means to alleviate discrimination and promote the well-being of LGBTQIA+ individuals, redefining the community members under universal term of being a “Gendivergent”. Gendervergence is the whole LGBTQIA+ open ended spectrum itself, whose each member shall be universally and equally a Gendivergent.

Published: July 2023

The issue of electronic waste is becoming increasingly problematic in both advanced and emerging nations due to the presence of harmful substances in nearly all electronic waste items, which can have negative effects on human health and the environment. The objective of the study was to examine the influence of perceived vulnerability and benefit on e-waste management practices among electronic technicians. In this study, we utilized the Health Believe Model to determine how perceived vulnerability and benefits influence the e-waste management practices of electronic technicians. The study was carried out using a cross-sectional survey approach and the sample was obtained by employing proportionate stratified random sampling methodology. Out of the 265 questionnaire that were administered, 248 were completed and returned. Statistical procedures were employed to address the issues associated with missing data, outliers, and normality. Consequently, unidimensionality was established by conducting principal component analysis with varimax rotation. Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) version 3.2.6 was used to evaluate the research model. The results of hypothesis testing indicated a significant impact of Perceived Benefit on e-waste management practice. The study successfully introduced a novel approach that combines various potential factors influencing e-waste management practices. Consequently, enhancing the understanding and perception of the benefits associated with e-waste can lead to improvements in e-waste management practices among electronic technicians. The findings of this study will provide valuable support to decision-makers in formulating policies that promote effective e-waste management practices, not only among electronic technicians but also among all users of information technology.

Makalah ini membicarakan mandi bunga sebagai amalan dan fungsinya dalam masyarakat Melayu. Mandi dengan bunga tertentu merupakan tradisi budaya sama ada di Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapura, Thailand dan negara serumpun lainnya. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk memberi pemahaman yang jelas tentang mandi bunga, amalan dan fungsinya dalam masyarakat Melayu. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah temu bual bersama-sama dengan seorang pengamal perubatan tradisional yang pernah dan masih mengendalikan adat mandi bunga di Parit Haji Amin, Sungai Rawa, Parit Buntar. Kaedah ini dijalankan pada Januari 2021 untuk mendapatkan sumber primer dan justifikasi pemilihan ini berdasarkan pengalaman beliau yang telah berkecimpung dalam perubatan tradisional selama 30 tahun serta masih aktif menjalankan kerja-kerja pengubatan tradisional sehingga kini. Dapatan kajian mendapati mandi bunga melibatkan berjenis-jenis bunga, dengan kaedah penyediaan mandi bunga dan tujuan pelaksanaannya. Selain itu juga, didapati mandi bunga mempunyai fahaman animisme, dinamisme dan Hindu-Buddha yang percaya kepada semangat dan roh. Amalan mandi bunga mempunyai pelbagai tujuan seperti menaikkan seri pengantin, membuang nasib malang dan mendapatkan sesuatu hajat seperti mendapatkan ilmu hitam, kedudukan, memikat, dan memakai susuk. Walau bagaimanapun amalan mandi bunga ini tidak lagi popular dalam masyarakat Melayu kerana kebanyakannya telah berubah kepada mandi bunga yang bersifat komersial. Selain itu, tradisi mandi bunga yang diamalkan oleh masyarakat Melayu ini amat bertentangan dengan ajaran Islam kerana terdapat unsur mempercayai semangat dan boleh mendatangkan syirik.
