Published: August 2024

This study investigates the factors that influence employee performance, namely personal factors, leadership, co-worker factors, work facilities, and work environment. This study uses a quantitative explanatory approach with primary data obtained from a survey with a questionnaire. The population in this study were all employees in North Maluku Province. The sample in the study came from two agencies, namely the Communication, Informatics, and Code Agency and the Transportation Agency of North Maluku Province, totaling 103 people. The data analysis technique used multiple regression with the help of SPSS software. The findings indicate that personal factors and leadership positively influence employee performance, with improved individual attributes and effective leadership leading to enhanced performance outcomes. Conversely, the presence of a larger number of co-workers was found to negatively affect performance, potentially due to role ambiguity and reduced accountability. Additionally, work facilities and the work environment did not significantly impact employee performance. The results emphasize the importance of focusing on personal and leadership development to boost employee effectiveness while addressing co-worker dynamics to maintain clear roles and responsibilities. Future research should further investigate these relationships to refine strategies for organizational performance improvement

Authors: Chahine Monica , Kirkwood Melissa , Al-Anani Ayah , MacKenzie-Ede Fiona , Charbonneau Krista , Metersky Kateryna
Published: August 2024

Introduction: Refugees face many barriers when arriving in a new country, and these barriers are especially felt by women, who often travel alone or with children. These barriers create a situation where some women turn to sex work, either voluntarily or involuntarily. Both refugees and sex workers face adversities related to their mental health and well-being, however little research has examined the intersections between both identities outside of STI incidence and violence. Objective: This systematic literature review aimed to explore mental health and overall well-being of women refugees who engage in sex work. Themes were extracted to better understand experiences to inform clinical and community practice. Methods:  A systematic literature review was conducted using PsycInfo, CINAHL, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, Google Scholar, ProQuest, and Medline, as well as grey literature for articles published between 2013 and 2023. The JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist for Qualitative Research was used to evaluate the quality of the primary research articles. 11 articles were included in the final synthesis. Results: The five themes included Fear, Mental/Psychological Health, Social Well-being, Economic/Financial Well-being, and Spiritual Struggles. These themes were interconnected to shape the experiences of these women within their circumstances. Engaging in sex work as a refugee, particularly in instances of sex trafficking, created significant challenges in all aspects of well-being, and the circumstances related to being a refugee often increased vulnerabilities to become involved in sex work for survival. Conclusion: These results suggest the need for policies, community programs, and clinical practice protocols to address the unique needs of women refugees to mitigate factors drawing them to sex work, and better support those who are currently involved in it.
Internationally educated nurses’ workplace acculturation and strategies for integration: Application of the Fourfold Model of Acculturation Theory (FMAT)
Authors: Alostaz Nasrin , Chen Ruth
Published: August 2024

Introduction. Internationally educated nurses (IENs) bring diverse skills, experiences, and cultural perspectives to healthcare institutions in the host country. However, their integration involves multiple adjustments encompassing physical, sociocultural, linguistic, psychological, and economic changes. Aims. This paper aims to explore the acculturation processes experienced by IENs and create strategies to support them as they adjust to their new workplace environment. Methods. The Fourfold Model of Acculturation Theory (FMAT) was utilized to develop effective strategies to improve professional, psychosocial, cultural, and organizational outcomes for IENs. Findings. Poor IEN integration stemming from cultural disparities leads to acculturation stress. This stress involves physical health issues, mental exhaustion, identity confusion, social isolation, and marginalization by their colleagues. Implications. The successful integration of IENs requires the involvement of stakeholders at the host workplace. Two-way workplace integration requires efforts from and partnership between stakeholders and IENs. Conclusion. The Fourfold Model of Acculturation Theory underscores that IENs who embrace both their native and dominant cultures are better integrated into their new workplace environments. Such integration positively impacts the individual, institutional, and societal domains. Stakeholders, policymakers, program planners, and healthcare institutions must foster a pluralistic culture and provide support to domestic and international nurses in understanding their professional roles and practices.

Authors:   Eurasian Coalition for Health, Rights, Gender and Sexual Diversity,, Kirey-Sitnikova Yana
Published: August 2024

Objective: Collection of data on psychological, social, legal, and economic barriers faced by transgender (TG) and non-binary (NB) individuals when approaching reproductive healthcare in Eastern Europe and Central Asia.Semi-structured interviews were conducted with TGL and NB who had experiences in reproductive healthcare.Six interviews were conducted with respondents who had experiences of pregnancy (an undisclosed country in Central Asia), oocyte retrieval for impregnation of the partner (Russia), abortion (Kazakhstan), postponing hormone therapy to conceive a child in the future (Russia), endometrial ablation to stop menses (Georgia), and artificial insemination (Russia). TG with a male gender in identification documents and masculine appearance face difficulties when trying to make an appointment for gynecological procedures, as well as the lack of understanding on behalf of other patients. In order to avoid bureaucratic barriers and intolerant treatment, TG and NB have to turn to private clinics, resulting in high financial expenses. TG who have a male gender marker and gave birth cannot be designated as a father in the birth certificate. None of the respondents suffered from gender dysphoria because of stopping/postponing hormone therapy. One experienced gender dysphoria after treatment with feminizing hormone therapy.Conclusion. The aforementioned legal barriers can be reduced by providing access to gynecological procedures for all patients irrespective of their gender marker. Clinical practice guidelines on reproductive health should be supplemented with information on TG and NB

The color of Philosophicalism among a group of contemporary Shia commentators: A typical applied Study on the interpretation of “The Concepts of the Qur’an”
Authors: Muhammad Arif Ataee
Published: August 2024

Undoubtedly, for the interpretation of the Qur’an, there are principles and rules that  attention for them are mandatory for the interpreter of the Qur’an, among these principles is to follow the method of the Salaf and not mix the interpretation with anything else.  This is what the Prophet (PBUH) mentioned: “Whoever interprets the Qur’an based on his own view and opinion, his place is Hell.”  For this reason, scholars have prohibited the interpretation of the Qur’an based on the opinions of philosophers and the wonders of their philosophy, and the interpreter should not use philosophers as his guide in the interpretation of the Holy Qur’an.   We see that some Shia commentators criticize the Sunnis and claim that the Sunnis have harmed themselves by not taking tafsir from its pure sources, “the Ahl al-Bayt of the Prophet” (as will be explained in this article) but they themselves are in a worse situation than what they criticize others for, and that is abandoning the interpretation of the Sahaba and Tabi‘in and following the views of the philosophers and this category applies exactly to them who say: They see straw in the eyes of others, but they do not see the branch of the tree in their own eyes. This discussion clarifies the extent of the influence of Philosophicalism on the contemporary interpretations of the Shiites through a brief sampling of an important interpretation of their interpretations, that is, the interpretation of “The Concepts of the Qur’an” by Jafar Subhani, who is considered one of the most prominent contemporary scholars and one of the critics of sunnite (as I mentioned in this article) in Iran.  Also, this article informs us about the sources of contemporary Shiite interpretations, that is, those who are influenced by them in rationality and theology. From this discussion, it becomes clear to the respected reader, the method of interpretation by opinion in the eyes of contemporary Shia.  The results of this discussion show that many contemporary Shiite scholars followed the path of philosophers such as Mulla Sadra, Ibn Sina, Nasir al-Din al-Tusi, Fakhr al-Din al-Razi and others. Not only have they filled their interpretations based on the opinions of these scholars and the opinions of the Mu’tazila sect before these scholars, but, they have considered the opinions of those scientists as an illuminating light for the light of their path In this article, a critical descriptive method is used, and the field of applying and taking examples, the interpretation of “The Concepts of the Qur’an” by Ayatollah Jafar Subhani, is determined.
Inventarisasi Gulma di Beberapa Lahan Perkebunan Rakyat, Jawa Timur

Published: August 2024

Plantation crops are plants that can be cultivated for many years to come. East Java has numerous plantation crops, including apples, guava, oranges, cocoa, moringa, and sugarcane. Wild plants are commonly found around crops in plantation areas. Plantation crops are at risk from biotic disturbances caused by these plants, which requires adequate management. Knowing the dominant weeds in the region allows for effective control. Weed dominance is measured using a species IVI (Importance Value Index). The purpose of this study is to investigate how weeds spread throughout each plantation area. The quadrat technique is used to manage inventories. Three samples are collected from each land and measured according to a formula. The dominant weeds in each plantation land are as follows: apple=Cyperus rotundus, guava=Parietaria judaica, orange=Mikania scandens, cocoa=Persicaria odorata, moringa=Muhlenbergia schreberi, and sugarcane=Dactylotenium aegyptium. Control is based on weed groups, namely broad-leaved (Parietaria judaica, Mikania scandenes, and Persicaria odorata), as well as narrow-leaved  (Muhlenbergia schreberi), and nutsedge (Cyperus rotundus). Weeds in the land may threaten crops, thus it must be managed. Controls have to conform to its principles so that they may be carried out properly and efficiently.
ABANDONO AFETIVO E A (IM) POSSIBILIDADE INDENIZATÓRIA
Authors: Gausmann Vasconcellos Fernanda , Borges Ayala Lucas , Rocha de Souza Lucimara , Campos Oliveira Vitória , Antunes Gomes Aline
Published: August 2024

O presente ensaio, de cunho bibliográfico-qualitativo, utilizando-se de método dedutivo, pautado em consulta à legislação vigente, doutrinas e decisões dos tribunais superiores, tem por escopo o desenvolvimento de análise acerca da (im)possibilidade indenizatória diante do abandono afetivo, uma vez que a família possui importante papel no desenvolvimento biopsicossocial de crianças e adolescentes e que a sua ausência implica em prejuízos não só a eles mas também à sociedade onde esses indivíduos estão inseridos. Para melhor esclarecer os propósitos deste estudo, em um primeiro momento há uma breve contextualização histórica-social do papel da família na sociedade e suas relações de afeto. Em outro plano, é tratado acerca da ausência de afeto nas relações familiares, o que constitui o abandono afetivo, bem como quais as consequências que representa seja para a vítima seja para a sociedade de modo geral. Não obstante, será desenvolvida análise no que se refere à legislação constitucional e infraconstitucional que regulamenta os direitos às crianças e aos adolescentes. Por fim, atendendo ao objetivo da pesquisa, são apresentados os posicionamentos doutrinários e jurídicos acerca da possibilidade ou não de indenização da vítima que sofreu dano motivado por abandono afetivo familiar, assim como quais pressupostos traz a legislação e o entendimento jurisprudencial pacificado pelos tribunais superiores. Do desenvolvimento deste estudo, pode-se observar que os Tribunais têm considerado a linha tênue entre definir afeto e cuidado, de maneira a evidenciar a falta de um ou de outro ou ambos, bem como calcular a extensão dos danos sofridos, de forma que manifestam-se pelo improvimento de pedidos desta modalidade, tendo em vista a aplicação ao caso concreto, podendo decorrer inclusive em um aumento desproporcional nas demandas judiciais em busca de indenizações por dano moral decorrente do abandono afetivo em questões familiares banais. Outrossim, a possibilidade indenizatória por abandono afetivo possui caráter inibitório, de forma que dá a oportunidade aos genitores de repensar a omissão para com os filhos, a fim de evitar uma futura perda financeira por não cumprir com suas responsabilidades, porém ressalta-se que uma sentença condenatória não possui o efeito de obrigar o pai ou a mãe a prover amor e afeto ao filho lesado.

Background: Detection of breast lump is very crucial.
Objective: This study was carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of FNAC as a diagnostic method for breast lump.
Methodology: This cross sectional study was conducted among 50 women with breast lump at Popular Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, Dhaka Medical College Hospital and Ad-Din Barrister Rafique Ul Huq Hospital, Dhaka during the period of November 2021 to April 2022. This study was conducted using convenient type of non-probability sampling technique. Data were collected by face to face interview, clinical examination and findings of both cytological and histopathological examination.
Results: The study revealed the most benign breast lesion (89.45%) were below the age of 40 years and most of the breast cancer (91.2%) were above the age of 40 years. The study showed that 29 cases (58.0%) were diagnosed as benign clinically but cytologically 30(60.0%) cases were benign. Clinically 14(27.0%) cases were malignant but cytologically 13(26.0%) cases malignant. Clinical diagnosis of 8(7.5%) cases were uncertain, whereas cytologically 2(4.0%) cases were suspicious of malignancy and 1(2.0%) case was atypical. The comparison study between cyological and final histopathological diagnosis showed that out of 28 benign lesions diagnosed cytologically among which only 2 cases were found malignant histologically like false negative 2 (7.20%). 13 malignant cases were diagnosed cytologically which were confirmed histologically like no false positive was found. The study found that sensitivity of FNAC 85.3% of the presence of breast cancer and specificity 100.0% for absence of breast cancer. They also showed that the negative predictive value of FNAC for benign breast lump was 93.5% and positive predictive value for malignant breast lump was 100.0% and the overall diagnostic accuracy was 95.40%.
Conclusion: In conclusion, FNAC can be used as a diagnostic method in the management of breast lump which has reasonable sensitivity and specificity.

Published: August 2024

Background: Caudal regression syndrome is a group of defects with incomplete development of the terminal vertebral column, with an incidence of 1 in 60,000 live births.

Case presentation: A 12-year-old female presented with dull, cyclical suprapubic abdominal pain occurring every month for the past 4 years. She was operated on for an anorectal malformation at birth. On examination, she had a blind-ending vagina with labial hypoplasia. She was diagnosed with caudal regression syndrome Type I, based upon the author’s findings of left renal agenesis along with low-lying blind ending uterus and sacral hypoplasia. She underwent a hysterectomy with right-sided salpingectomy along with the creation of a neo-vagina using a segment of the sigmoid colon. She was discharged after an uneventful postoperative course.

Conclusion: The condition is irreversible; however, repair and reconstruction of each systemic defect is warranted under a multidisciplinary team.

Background

The diagnosis and treatment of lung, colon, and gastric cancer through the histologic characteristics and genomic biomarkers have not had a strong impact on the mortality rates of the top three global causes of death by cancer.

Methods

Twenty-five transcriptomic analyses (10 lung cancer, 10 gastric cancer, and 5 colon cancer datasets) followed our own bioinformatic pipeline based on the utilization of specialized libraries from the R language and DAVID´s gene enrichment analyses to identify a regulatory metafirm network of transcription factors and target genes common in every type of cancer, with experimental evidence that supports its relationship with the unlocking of cell phenotypic plasticity for the acquisition of the hallmarks of cancer during the tumoral process. The network’s regulatory functional and signaling pathways might depend on the constant crosstalk with the microbiome network established in the oral-gut-lung axis.

Results

The global transcriptomic network analysis highlighted the impact of transcription factors (SOX4, TCF3, TEAD4, ETV4, and FOXM1) that might be related to stem cell programming and cancer progression through the regulation of the expression of genes, such as cancer-cell membrane receptors, that interact with several microorganisms, including human T-cell leukemia virus 1 (HTLV-1), the human papilloma virus (HPV), the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV), and SARS−CoV−2. These interactions can trigger the MAPK, non-canonical WNT, and IFN signaling pathways, which regulate key transcription factor overexpression during the establishment and progression of lung, colon, and gastric cancer, respectively, along with the formation of the microbiome network.

Conclusion

The global transcriptomic network analysis highlights the important interaction between key transcription factors in lung, colon, and gastric cancer, which regulates the expression of cancer-cell membrane receptors for the interaction with the microbiome network during the tumorigenic process.

Objectives

To evaluate the changes in distal vascular morphology and hemodynamics in patients with extremely severe aortic coarctation (CoA) after covered palliative (CP) stent dilation with different surgical strategies.

Materials and methods

Perioperative computed tomography angiography and digital subtraction angiography were utilized to construct three aortic models with varying stenosis rates and one follow-up model in a patient with extremely severe CoA. The models included: an idealized non-stenosed model (A: 0%), a model post initial stent deployment (B: 28%), a model post balloon expansion (C: 39%), and a model 18 months after post-balloon expansion (D: 39%). Consistent boundary conditions were applied to all models, and hemodynamic simulation was conducted using the pure fluid method.

Results

The narrowest and distal diameter of the stent increased by 34.71% and 59.29%, respectively, from model B to C. Additionally, the distal diameter of the stent increased by −13.80% and +43.68% compared to the descending aorta diameter, respectively. Furthermore, the ellipticity of the maximum cross-section of the aneurysm region in model A to D continued to increase. The oscillatory shear index at the stenosis to the region of the aneurysm were found to be higher in Models A and B, and lower in Models C and D. At the moment of maximum flow velocity, the blood flow distribution in models A and B was more uniform in the widest section of the blood vessels at the distal end of the stenosis, whereas models C and D exhibited disturbed blood flow with more than 2 eddy currents. The time-averaged wall shear stress (TAWSS) decreased in the distal and basal aneurysms, while it significantly increased at the step position. The aneurysmal region exhibited an endothelial cell activation potential value lower than 0.4 Pa−1.

Conclusion

In patients with extremely severe CoA, it is crucial to ensure that the expanded diameter at both ends of the CP stent does not exceed the native vascular diameter during deployment. Our simulation results demonstrate that overdilation leads to a decrease in the TAWSS above the injured vessel, creating an abnormal hemodynamic environment that may contribute to the development and enlargement of false aneurysms in the early postoperative period.
