The study investigated the Principals’ Administrative Strategies as Correlates of Teachers’ Job Performance In Secondary Schools in Nsukka Education  Zone Of Enugu State. Four research questions and four null hypotheses guided the study. A correlational survey design was adopted for this study. The population comprised 1830 principals and teaching staff.  A sample size of 605 respondents was drawn using a proportionate random sampling technique. The two designed instruments used for data collection are Principals' Administrative Strategies Questionnaires (PASQ) and Teachers' Job Performance Questionnaires (TJPQ). The instrument was subjected to face validation by three experts and internal consistency of the instrument was obtained using Cronbach Alpha that yielded an index of 0.73. Data collected were analyzed using regression analysis while regression ANOVA was used in testing the formulated hypotheses at a 0.05 level of significance. The findings revealed among others that, open communication, carrying teachers along and providing for teachers’ welfare among others are principals’ administrative strategies for enhancing teachers’ job performance in public secondary schools. The result also revealed that a highly positive significant relationship exists between principals’ administrative strategies in decision-making, delegation of duties, open communication and management of staff welfare and teachers’ job performance in public secondary schools in Enugu state. The study recommended among others that principals in public secondary schools should adopt positive administrative strategies as identified in this study to promote teachers’ job performance.
Revolutionizing Worldwide Operations through Blockchain: A Marxian Perspective
Authors: Bodemer Oliver
Published: August 2023

This study elucidates the implications of blockchain technology on the product and service offerings of a multinational corporation, examined through the lens of Karl Marx’s seminal work “Capital: A Critique of Political Economy”. Blockchain’s potential to decentralize control and distribute power counteracts Marx’s critique of worker alienation in capitalist economies. My investigation indicates that blockchain’s transparency can help demystify commodity fetishism by revealing production processes, and its decentralized structure can challenge the centralization of capital, offering solutions to traditional capitalist problems. This research contributes a unique perspective on the impact of blockchain technology in global companies, suggesting a revolutionary shift not only in their operations but also in their social relations of production. The study concludes by acknowledging the potential challenges in the practical implementation of these theoretical insights and suggests future research directions to overcome these obstacles.

Authors: Kodur Krishna , Zand Manizheh , Tognotti Matthew , Jauregui Cinthya , Kyrarini Maria
Published: August 2023

This research delves into user preferences concerning structured (the subject follows an exact script to command the robot) and unstructured (the subject commands the robot in a conversational way) robot interaction through natural spoken language. Data was gathered from 30 adult participants who completed two distinct tasks involving both structured and unstructured commands. The study examines correlations between robot errors and user perceptions, as well as how past or present failures impact participants' perception of robot utility. Three hypotheses are formulated, and the paper offers a comprehensive overview of the study's aims, methodologies, and principal findings, which were ascertained using paired t-Test and Kendall-Tau correlations. The study indicates that participants showed a preference for the unstructured task in contrast to the structured one. Analysis of the data revealed interesting correlations between the user perception of the robot and the robot errors.

Optimizing A Deep Learning Model for the Prediction of Electric Field Induced by Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Mild to Moderate Traumatic Brain Injury Patients
Authors: Saxena Yash , Lewis Connor , Lee Joseph , Franke Laura , Alam Muhammad Sabbir , Tashli Mohannad , Atulasimha Jayasimha , Hadimani Ravi
Published: August 2023

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive method for treating neurological and psychiatric disorders. It is being tested as an experimental treatment for patients with mild to moderate traumatic brain injuries (mTBI). Due to the complex, heterogeneous composition of the brain, it is difficult to determine if targeted brain regions receive the correct amount of electric field (E-field) induced by the TMS coil. E-field distributions can be calculated by running time-consuming finite element analysis (FEA) simulations of TMS on patient head models. Using machine learning, the E-field can be predicted in real-time. Our prior work used a Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) to predict the E-field in healthy patients. This study applies the same DCNN to mTBI patients and investigates how model depth and color space of E-field images affect model performance. Nine  DCNNs were created using combinations of 3, 4, or 5 encoder and decoder blocks with the color spaces RGB, LAB, and YCbCr. As depth increased, training and testing peak signal-to-noise ratios (PSNR) increased and mean squared errors (MSE) decreased. The depth 5 YCbCr model had the highest training and testing PSNRs of 34.77 dB and 29.08 dB and lowest training and testing MSEs of 3.335 * 10-4 and 1.237 * 10-3 respectively. Compared to the model in our prior work, models of depth 5 have higher testing PSNRs and lower MSEs and, except for RGB. Thus, DCNNs with depth 5 and alternative color spaces, despite losing information through color space conversions, resulted in higher PSNRs and lower MSEs.

Published: August 2023

PT TIJ is a company that produces the local brand "LC," which is located in Depok, West Java. According to data for June-August 2022, there are significant product returns of around 1-7%, and a repair process is needed during production. Quality control at PT TIJ is carried out by checking goods one by one by supervisors and production operators. Recording quality problems is only done by labeling the products that need repair. The Quality Assurance (QA) department only records the number of products that need repair. Documentation of specific defects that often occur has never been done. Documentation is one of the essential things for quality control because quality data plays a significant role in making process improvement decisions. This PkM program is carried out by providing training materials for implementing an integrated system of sustainable quality management and the importance of quality data providing information related to problems in the production process. The conducted training increased the participants' knowledge regarding management and quality data. The usefulness of the training was confirmed directly to the participants through a questionnaire. The results showed that 77% of participants strongly agreed that the material was helpful, and 73% strongly agreed that the presenter delivered the quality management material well. Participants also provided suggestions regarding material for further assistance related to using a computer to use quality data analysis tools.

Introduction: the diabetic foot is one of the most serious complications of diabetes mellitus. About 50% of non-traumatic amputations occur in these patients. In addition, it is an important public health problem and constitutes a chronic and complex metabolic disorder that is characterized by impaired metabolism of glucose and other complications in essential organs for the maintenance of life.
Objective: to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of diabetic neuropathy using the Michigan self-assessment and physical examination in type 1 and type 2 diabetics.
Methods: this is a cross-sectional study. The “Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instruments” classification was used to assess the degree of peripheral neuropathy, in which participants answered the questionnaire and were evaluated for the presence of foot lesions. All participants were stratified by the risk of developing foot ulcers according to the IWGDF protocol.
Results: the sample had 200 participants. Regarding the IWGDF classification, 23 patients were classified as moderate risk (11.50%) and 61 as high risk for developing foot ulcers (30.50%). Using a cutoff of 2.5 on the physical examination score to diagnose neuropathy, a sensitivity of 97.62% and a specificity of 47.41% were obtained. Using a score greater than or equal to 6 in the self-assessment for the diagnosis of neuropathy, a sensitivity of 50.00% and a specificity of 94.83% were found.
Conclusion: the association of the Michigan physical examination (high sensitivity) with self-assessment (high specificity) increases the accuracy for the diagnosis of diabetic neuropathy.

Published: August 2023

Introdução: evidências científicas enfatizam que disrupções cronobiológicas podem promover a obesidade por mecanismos envolvendo ação de importantes hormônios marcadores do ritmo circadiano: a melatonina e cortisol. Estes hormônios estão presentes no colostro humano e representam importante mecanismo de proteção materno infantil frente à obesidade e infecções infantis, devido à intensa interação entre mãe e filho durante a gravidez e amamentação. Assim, os hormônios melatonina e cortisol presentes no colostro humano representam promissores candidatos para fornecer resultados com capacidade de aplicação clínica e de embasamento de futuras estratégias de intervenção com enfoque na redução da obesidade e de infecções neonatais. Entretanto, são escassos os estudos na literatura sobre o tema.
Objetivo: analisar as repercussões da obesidade materna sobre os níveis e as ações da melatonina e do cortisol no colostro e leite materno.
Método: foi realizada uma revisão sistematizada da literatura científica seguindo as recomendações do protocolo Prisma. Foram pesquisados artigos originais, publicados em inglês, nas bases de dados PubMed, Medline, Lilacs e Scopus. Não houve restrição quanto ao ano de publicação.
Resultados: foram identificados 37 artigos nas bases de dados pesquisados, 15 artigos foram excluídos por estarem duplicados, após aplicação do critério de inclusão e exclusão apenas 5 estudos tiveram relação ao tema, sendo 2 estudos abordando sobre melatonina e 3 pesquisas que analisaram o cortisol. Esta revisão mostrou que a melatonina está elevada em colostro de obesas e para este grupo ela possui potencial de restaurar atividade de fagócitos e de elevar a proliferação de linfócitos. Os estudos sobre o cortisol ilustraram que os níveis deste hormônio no leite materno não foram alterados pela obesidade materna.
Conclusão: o aleitamento materno deve ser encorajado para todos os públicos, assim como mais pesquisas originais devem ser desenvolvidas para descrever os mecanismos protetores do colostro e leite materno.
Transmission of moral values between generations of families in conditions of social and economic vulnerability
Authors: Parra Gilson , Leone Jr Claudio , M. M. Pimentel Renata
Published: August 2023

Introduction: this study analysed the transmission of values between generations in groups of people in unfavourable economic and social conditions. It was carried out with grandparents, their children, and their grandchildren who are residents of a peripheral neighbourhood of the capital of São Paulo and live in restricted economic conditions and under the daily impact of violence. The study sought to determine how the passage of values between generations is processed, in view of the exposure to conditions of deprivation to which these people are subjected, while they carry the obligation to ensure the minimum for their children but do not have the necessary resources. This raises the question of how it is possible to affirm a notion of right and wrong within this social framework. The theoretical basis of this study was psychoanalysis, using the concepts of Identification, Ego Ideal, Ideal Ego, Oedipus, and the dynamics underlying the insertion of the father in the Oedipal triad.
Methods: interviews were conducted through group meetings to discuss issues related to morals. These discussions involved the three generational components of three families. Different arrangements were made that involved the same generational group in an initial meeting and, in another meeting, the mixture of different generations and different families responding to pre-established themes that involved moral dilemmas focused on the daily cultural and social life of these families.
Results: the grandfathers were ambiguous because they have a reference to a law of morals transcending space and time. Parents, realising the ambiguity of these grandparents in relation to reality, reformulate these moral questions, basing their convictions on a law that is established within the contingencies of everyday life and, therefore, changeable. The adolescent grandchildren perceive this ambiguity in the parents and in their speech.
Conclusion: There is greater identification of moral standards among grandchildren and grandparents than between children and parents. The interviewed parents were ambiguous in the way they act and speak, with the transgenerational reproduction model being more guided between grandchildren and grandparents than in the sequential temporal generational sequence.
Electronic cigarettes: a new social practice and the challenge of tobacco control policies
Authors: Cristina de Oliveira Ferreira Delanos Flaviane , Maria Pinheiro Bezerra Italla
Published: August 2023

Smoking is a chronic disease and is considered a serious public health problem and has been the target of many preventive and health promotion actions over time. The most consumed tobacco product among adults and young people is the conventional cigarette, however, the consumption of smokeless tobacco or other smoked tobacco products, such as electronic cigarettes, has been observed on an increasing basis in the world. Electronic smoking devices (EFD), which have increasingly attracted the attention of young consumers, involve different equipment and technologies. Based on the precautionary principle, since 2009, Brazil has prohibited the sale, importation and advertising of all types of DEF that offer the replacement of cigarettes, cigarillos, cigars, pipes and the like or that aim at an alternative to the treatment of smoking, through RDC n 46, of August 28, 2009. Even though it is prohibited in Brazil, the use of electronic cigarettes as an alternative is evident, revealing a new challenge to be faced by tobacco control policies. The knowledge gaps inherent to a new social practice, as well as the need to build references that contribute to better decision-making, whether in the scope of professional intervention or the management of public policies, with a view to protecting the health of the population, for itself already makes the expansion of knowledge about this theme relevant. However, it is necessary to understand that prevention, promotion and control actions must be understood in a transversal and interdisciplinary way, so that one can reflect on the processes that involve political, socioeconomic and cultural aspects that interact directly with the health process -illness. Thus, based on the problem presented and considering the relevance of the issue in question, as a field little faced in this area, it is emphasized that the expansion of investigations and the deepening of discussions about it, will allow a better understanding and visibility of the problem.

Introduction: traumatic brain injury is a global public health problem due to its severity and high rates of morbimortality worldwide. Identifying predictors associated with increased mortality and unfavorable functional outcomes after the traumatic brain injury event is crucial for minimizing morbidity and mortality rates. Therefore, this study aims to establish a protocol to investigate the predictors of mortality and functional recovery after severe traumatic brain injury in Brazil.
Methods: The study will include all patients admitted for severe traumatic brain injury (Glasgow Coma Scale ≤ 8) at the State Hospital of Urgency and Emergency, which is the referral trauma hospital of Espirito Santo. The outcomes of interest are hospital mortality and functional recovery 24 months after hospital discharge. Subjects will be followed up at seventy-two hours, three months, six months, twelve months, and twenty-four months after the trauma. Morbidity will be determined by assessing: 1) the level of motor and cognitive disability, 2) functional impairment and quality of life, and 3) aspects of rehabilitation treatment. Additionally, the traumatic brain injury load, estimated by the years of life lost, will be calculated.

The Effect of the Demonstration Method on Students' Mathematical Reasoning Ability in Secondary School
Abstract
This study aims to determine the effect of the demonstration method on students' reasoning abilities in the topic of lines and angles. This research employs a quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent control group. Class VII A (37 students) and VII B (37 students) in one of the middle schools in Central Lombok were selected as the sample using purposive sampling. Research data was collected using an essay test instrument. Students' reasoning abilities data were statistically analyzed using the Z-test. Based on the final test results, the average reasoning ability score of the experimental group was 76.95, while that of the control group was 60.56. The Z-test results for students' reasoning abilities yielded a calculated Z value of 0.579, which is greater than the critical Z value of 1.96. As a result, the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected, leading to the conclusion that there is an influence of the demonstration method on the reasoning abilities of secondary school students.

Background:  Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most common Gram negative pathogens associated with nosocomial infections. Carbapenems, specially imipenem and meropenem have the widest activity ranges of any β-lactam antibiotics and are often the most appropriate agents for use in the treatment of infections caused by multi-drug resistant P. aeruginosa. Resistance to carbapenems is emerging, and it is a great problem to therapeutic the serious infections caused by this bacteria.

Staphylococcus aureus is the most common cause of staphylococcal infections. It is a spherical bacterium, frequently lives on the skin or in the nose of a human.Many tests were done for the diagnosis of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from blood culture, these include: culture, gram stain, catalase test, coagulase test and diagnosis by Vitek system. The results appear that 90% were (H7) isolates while 10% were other isolate.Chromatography technique was used for extraction, purification and isolation of the antigen (enterotoxin B) from the cell wall of Staphylococcus aureus.ELISA technique was used for the detection of enterotoxin B.This antigen (enterotoxin B) was employed for the production of diagnostic ELISA kit against staphylococci (particularly for Iraqi peoples).

Published: August 2023

In the current study, waste polyvinyl chloride pipes were used as a primary material in the reactions, which are widely used for water supply and drainage systems where the waste pipes were prepared by cleaning them from suspended materials and grinding them into small particles, then reacting natural polymers from a plant; Alginic acid. We have obtained modified polymer (PVC/Alginate)  or AL-PVC which have been grinded to obtain a powder. Four methods were used to characterize the properties of natural and prepared polymers: Fourier infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetry (TGA-TG). The effectiveness of AL-PVC polymer as a coagulant flocculant in the treatment of surface water has been studied. Tests were carried out in the laboratory on two kinds of water (50 NTU and 100 NTU). The first one is the synthesis of water mixed with high and low concentrations of bentonite, simulating thus turbid water. The second one is raw water from the treatment station of the Shatt Al-Arab River. The performance of the coagulation-flocculation process has been assessed by measuring the supernatant turbidity for different pH, doses, and flocculation times of the AL-PVC polymer. The obtained results show that AL-PVC polymer effectiveness was strongly dependent on pH and the doses of AL-PVC polymer, the initial turbidity, and the water quality. The physical and chemical methods used in the present study of water treatments are mainly due to their simplicity, ease of use, low cost as well as excellent removal efficiency.

In this study, 4-chlorobenzodithioatebenzyltrimethylammonium and 4-methoxylbenzodithioatebenzyltrimethylammonium were synthesized and characterized by 1H-NMR, FTIR, UV-Visible and Mass techniques. Then they evaluated as corrosion inhibitors for carbon steel alloy (C1010) against corrosive environment of hydrochloric acid at different concentrations at 25 ˚C. both inhibitors revealed an excellent inhibition efficiency (97.95) % and (97.13) % at optimal concentrations (9) ppm and (8) ppm respectively. The effect of temperature on the corrosion was studied in absence and presence of the inhibitor, the raising of temperature leads to reduce the efficiency of the inhibitor and CR was enhanced. On the other hand, kinetic parameters such as activation energy , enthalpy of activation , entropy of activation and Gibbs free energy of activation  were calculated which are insisted a physical adsorbed behavior for the inhibitor, an endothermic corrosion reaction whether in presence or in absence of the inhibitor and enhanced non-spontaneous behavior in presence of the certain inhibitor. Each one of the inhibitor has the mixed inhibition behavior.
