Authors: A Marwa, , K. Mushi, H. M.
Published: January 2024

This study aimed at investigating accessibility and use of Internet learning environments (ILE) by distance education students at the Open University of Tanzania. The study was qualitative and largely descriptive and interpretive. It used purposive sampling procedures to draw a total of 84 respondents constituting two ICT administrators, two Directors from two directorates in OUT and 80 OUT students from three Dar es Salaam Regional Centers; Ilala, Kinondoni, and Temeke. The study sought to discuss studentsâ€™ and staff- perceptions on their competence levels in using internet facilities, availability of internet services, staff training and perceptions of major barriers encountered in using internet services while studying and working at OUT. Data collection methods used for the study included observations, questionnaires, interviews and focus group discussions. Findings of the study revealed the lack of comprehensive computer skills, distance to internet facilities, demographic factors and information processing skills among students and staff to be the significant influence on the use of ILE. Gender was also found to have some influence on accessibility and use of ILE.; while distance ranked fourth. Age and income were found to have no significant influence on accessibility and use of ILE. On the basis of the findings the researchers proposed the following recommendations: (1)There should be provision of further training for students in computer use and information processing skills, (2) ICT experts at the University should be qualitatively and quantitatively trained in order to,(3) provision of adequate user friendly facilitiesÂ  and services to align with students' needs, (4) further studies need to be conducted to assess use of various internet services for studentsâ€™ learning through the distance mode of education provision;(5) ascertain faculty acceptance of internet integrated teaching, (6) conduct a more detailed and elaborate investigation on accessibility as well as use of internet learning environments for different courses at OUT and other institutions where the Internet is used for provision of education, (7) Develop policies that enhance OUTâ€™s collaboration with other universities in East Africa and across the world (8) expand the volume of internet bandwidth so as to lower costs of internet services and increase the speed of internet services and (9) introduce compulsory computer courses from primary schools and (10) introduceÂ  modalities for OUT students to own personal Internet equipment.

Authors: Acharya Apurba , Kaphle Sushma , Aryal Bijay , Shakya Arbin
Published: January 2024

Background: Alcohol poisoning associated with traditionally fermented alcoholic beverages have been reported in Nepal with the constituents of these beverages not being quantified usually. In traditionally fermented alcoholic beverages, methanol, due to its cheaper cost and similar physiochemical properties with ethanol, is adulterated most commonly and readily. The objective of the present study was to quantify four different varieties of traditionally fermented alcoholic beverages available in Chandannath, Jumla for methanol level.Methods: The present study is a cross-sectional study in which four different types of traditionally fermented alcoholic beverages were collected from Chandannath, Jumla and they were analyzed for methanol content. From Chandannath municipality, the ward number two was selected for collection of samples. Further, from this ward, four different households regularly involved in brewing local alcohol were also randomly selected. These households belonged to three different ethnic groups (Indo-Aryan, Tibeto-Burman and Newar) and these samples were chhyang (sample- 1), local raksi (sample- 2), nigar (sample- 3) and local apple cider (sample- 4). In air tight containers, the samples were sealed and transported to Zest laboratory, Bhaktapur, Nepal for quantification of methanol using Gas Chromatography.Results: The residents in half of these four households belonged to the Tibeto-Burman ethnic groups. Methanol was detected in two samples among the four analyzed beverages. These samples, sample- 2 and sample- 4, on quantification showed the concentrations of 10.050ppm and 13.721ppm of methanol respectively. Conclusion: Among four samples of locally brewed alcoholic beverages, methanol was detected in two samples, but at a concentration below the level that would be considered toxic. This finding emphasizes the importance of conducting larger-scale quantification of traditionally fermented alcohol to mitigate the various health risks associated with its potential toxicity, as these beverages are currently not being quantified.
Cyclopia: A Rare Congenital Anomaly
Authors: Gautam Uttara , Shrestha Sandeep , Phuyal Rajan
Published: January 2024

Cyclopia is the most extreme form of holoprosencephaly. It is characterized by the failure of the embryonic prosencephalon to properly divide the orbits of the eye into two cavities which results in babies with a single or partially divided eye in a single orbit. We report a case of a 28 years old primigravida who came for medical termination at 25 weeks of gestation and delivered a 600 grams dead female fetus with cyclopia, fetal proboscis, and neurocutaneous marker. Its incompatibility with life makes early diagnosis using ultrasonography and fetal magnetic resonance imaging essential in early management and essential counseling to parents.

Published: January 2024

Background: Iterative Reconstruction techniques have been shown to produce diagnostically acceptable images at low doses to the patient. This study aimed to compare the image quality and radiation dose between 120kVp Filtered Back Projection and 80kVp Iterative Reconstructed (SAFIRE) CT images.Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on patients referred for CT Urography examinations for various clinical indications to the Department of Radiology and Imaging, Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital. Data were collected for a period of four months (From August to November 2019) after approval from the Institutional Review Committee of the Institute of Medicine. Convenience sampling was employed and a total of 96 examinations were included. Among them 48 were male and 48 were female. Data were obtained from the 128-slice MDCT Siemens Somaton Definition AS+ CT scanner. Venous phase scans were obtained with Protocol A (120kVp and Filtered Back Projection) and non-contrast scans were obtained with Protocol B (80kVp and SAFIRE). The mAs (tube current-time product) was fixed at 200 for both protocols.Results: There was a 72.5% reduction in Size Specific Dose Estimate (SSDE) in Protocol B compared to Protocol A. However, there was a 13.17% increase in noise in Protocol B compared to Protocol A. Image quality evaluation showed a 98.95% acceptability for the low dose i.e. Protocol B images.Conclusion: CT using low kVp (80kVp) and low current (200mAs) along with an iterative reconstruction algorithm (SAFIRE) can provide diagnostically acceptable images at very low doses for examinations of the Urinary tract

Authors: Nepal Santosh , Gupta Mithilesh Kumar , Panthee Rajan , Kafle Gokul , Sah Raj Kumar
Published: January 2024

Background: The use of autologous hamstring tendon for arthroscopic Anterior Cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is very common. The size of hamstring tendons varies significantly between individuals, and graft diameter is unpredictable. Anthropometric measurements may be a simple way to estimate hamstring tendon length and diameter. This study aims to determine the correlation between anthropometric measurements of patients with length and diameter of harvested hamstring autograft during ACL reconstruction.Methods: A prospective observational study was carried out after ethical approval. All patients who underwent arthroscopic ACL reconstruction from 1 March 2022 to 30 April 2023 in Birat Medical College Teaching Hospital were included. Fourty seven patients’ age, sex, height, weight and thigh length were recorded preoperatively. Hamstring tendons were harvested and length of the semitendinosus tendon and diameter of the quadrupled graft (doubled semitendinosus and doubled gracilis) was measured intraoperatively. We used Pearson’s correlation coefficient to observe the relationship between anthropometric measurements and graft variables.Results: Mean length of harvested semitendinosus tendon was 27.4 ± 1.8 cm and mean quadrupled hamstring autograft diameter was 7.4 ± 0.8 mm. A significant positive correlation between graft variables (semitendinosus tendon length and quadrupled hamstring autograft diameter) and patients’ height and thigh length was found.Regression equations for predicting Semitendinosus tendon length and quadrupled hamstring autograft diameter from thigh length in males and females are also derived.Conclusion: Height and thigh length of patients are useful parameters for predicting semitendinosus tendon length and quadrupled hamstring graft diameter before ACL reconstruction.

Published: January 2024

Background: This study provides information regarding severity and clinical outcome of people admitted with the diagnosis of COVID-19 infection during the global pandemic at a provincial infectious disease hospital in Gandaki Province in Nepal. The evidence from this study will be helpful to compare the clinical outcome of people admitted with COVID-19 during the outbreak. Methods: Cross-sectional study was conducted from March 2023 to August 2023 after approval from NHRC (ref. no. 1448) with sample size of 1366 at the hospital. Structured questionnaire was used to collect secondary data (electronic and paper records) retrospectively from hospital records with a diagnosis of COVID-19 infection. Total enumeration technique was used with enlisting of all cases of COVID-19 to the hospital. The collected data was analyzed using SPSS version 11.5. Results: The hospital admitted the highest number of cases between April to September 2021. Among the 1366 admitted cases, 791 (57.91%) were males and 575 (42.09%) were females, the most common age group affected was 31 to 40 years (22.99%); 1092 (79.94%) were from Kaski district. As per disease severity, 884 (64.71%) were moderate cases followed by 391 (28.62%) mild cases and 91 (6.67%) severe cases. A total of 1205 (88.21%) patients were discharged, 105(7.69%) patients were referred and 56 (4.10%) patients died of COVID -19.Conclusions: Almost 3/4th of the admitted cases came from same district, majority had moderate disease and the hospital cure rate was almost 8/9th. As the majority of cases are from active age group (21 years to 60 years old), public health measures can be targeted to these groups including surrounding population to stop transmission and spread of COVID-19 or similar infectious diseases. The information from this study can guide for the preparation and planning of in-patient and isolation departments of similar other provincial infectious disease hospitals.
Restaurant Tax Revenue in Enhancing Local Revenue in the City of Ambon
Authors: Sakir Ahmad Rosandi
Published: January 2024

Ambon City Regulation Law No. 2 of 2011, in CHAPTER 1 Article 1 paragraph 12, clarifies that restaurant tax pertains to the services provided by restaurants. Additionally, in Article 1 paragraph 13, it defines a restaurant as an establishment offering food and/or beverages, encompassing cafeterias, stalls, bars, and similar entities, including food/catering services. Sections 12 and 13 specify that the restaurant tax is calculated based on the payment received or due to the restaurant (Article 12), and the tax rate is set at 10% (Article 13). The restaurant tax significantly contributes to the growth of local own-source revenue in Ambon City, as evidenced by research data showing a consistent annual increase. However, there remains a need for governmental (tax officer) evaluation to enhance public awareness (taxpayers), particularly concerning restaurant taxes, ensuring sustained and escalating local own-source revenue through this tax

Published: January 2024

Objective: In this study, we aimed to compare the measurements of some fetal cranial structures and Doppler parameters between the groups with congenital heart disease and healthy pregnant women.
Materials and Methods: The study included 30 patients with intrauterine congenital heart disease and 30 healthy pregnant women. Fetuses with additional structural and genetic abnormalities were excluded from the study. In both groups, biparietal diameter (BPD), head circumference (HC), transcerebellar diameter (TCD), middle cerebral artery pulsatility index (MCA-PI), umbilical artery pulsatility index (UA-PI), umbilical artery resistance index (UA-RI), and umbilical artery systole/diastole ratio (UA S/D), as well as superior-inferior diameter of the cavum septum pellucidum (CSP) were measured by ultrasound. The cerebroplacental ratio (CPR), which is an indicator of the protective effect on the brain, was calculated. Data were statistically compared between the two groups, and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: A statistically significant difference was found between the groups in UA-RI and UA S/D values. The UA-RI and UA S/D values were significantly higher in the patient group than in the control group (P=0.048; P < 0.001). HC values were lower in the congenital heart disease group, and this result was statistically significant (P=0.047). There was no statistically significant difference between groups in BPD, HC, and TCD Z-scores. There was no statistically significant difference between groups in MCA-PI < 5th percentile, UA-PI > 95th percentile, and CPR < 1 scores.
Conclusion: Congenital heart disease may cause chronic fetal hypoxia during the intrauterine process and lead to changes in the fetomaternal circulation. This study suggests that there may be relationships between fetal cranial biometric retardation and cerebral perfusion changes.

Authors: Yaprak Uçar Esra , Uçar İlker
Published: January 2024

Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the pregnancy outcomes of pregnant women who were found to have borderline amniotic fluid index (AFI) in second trimester.
Materials and Methods: 71 patients who underwent second trimester ultrasound scan (18-24 weeks) between 1 February and 1 August 2021 at our clinic were investigated retrospectively. Patients with borderline AFI (5-8 cm) and who gave birth in the same center were selected. Pregnancy outcomes such as mode of delivery, gestational age at birth, 1st minute APGAR score and birth weights were examined. All data were obtained from the hospital database. 
Results: In the study sample, the mean age was 28.2±6.7, the mean gravida was 2±1.4 and the mean week of gestation in which AFI was measured was 22±2.5. 38.1% of the pregnancies (27 patients) resulted in cesarean section. 18.3% of births (13 patients) occurred at preterm. 16.9% of pregnancies (12 patients) resulted in low birth weight. APGAR score at 1-minute was 8 and above in all term newborns.
Conclusions: Borderline AFI detected in the second trimester is a challenging issue for the obstetricians in terms of clinical management. There is insufficient evidence in the literature regarding the effect of borderline AFI on pregnancy outcomes, and previous studies have reported controversial results. Compared to the findings of previous studies, our results support the studies reporting adverse effects of borderline AFI on pregnancy outcomes.

Published: January 2024

The cause of ERP system implementation failure in companies can be caused by several factors, so we need a model that can be applied, especially at the stage of approval for system use. This study aims to analyze what factors influence approval for product use (approval) in implementing an ERP system in a company and to analyze what factors have a positive and significant influence on the success or failure of system implementation in terms of approval. Research systematics through several stages, namely the stages of review, collection, analysis, and interpretation. The object of this research is PT. Glico Indonesia and with the SEM-PLS analysis method use the SmartPLS 4 application to test the structural equation model that reflects the relationship between variables. This research has a total of eight variables with one dependent variable approval and seven independent variables consisting of certainty of outcome, causality, motive consistency, control potential, situational construal, appraisal, and coping. In each variable, there are several indicators to support research. The tests used in this study are outer model testing, structural model testing, and hypothesis testing using bootstrapping. Based on the results obtained from this study, of the seven independent variables, three variables have a significant and positive effect on approval, namely certainty of outcome, situational construal, and coping. Two variables have a significant but negative effect on approval, namely causality and motive consistency, there is one variable that has no significant and negative effect on approval, namely control potential and there is one variable that does not have a significant but positive effect on approval, namely appraisal.

Authors: Rafsanjani Rayhan Rafael , Lubis Muharman , Abdulmana Sahidan
Published: January 2024

None of the several theories that underpin the assessment of IT adoption characterizes the process as dynamically as the Means of Engagement theory does. User satisfaction is a key factor in influencing the success of ERP implementation as well as the adoption of the ERP system by the user. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the factors affecting user satisfaction of the ERP system as well as the relationship between customer satisfaction and user involvement. This research aims to develop a concept or model of Means of Engagement (MOE) on relationship domain in particular for satisfaction factor with the research object of PT Glico Indonesia. The research uses SEM-PLS analysis method using the SmartPLS 4 application to construct and test a structural equation model that reflects the relationship between the variables investigated in the research. The evaluation results showed that the five SERVQUAL dimensions studied did not have a significant impact on user satisfaction while customer satisfaction had a significant positive impact on engagement. The results of this research, namely the development of the Means of Engagement model, are expected to be the basis for PT Glico Indonesia to design strategies that can improve and maintain the adoption of ERP system users based on the level of the means of engagement model.

El franquismo, la lírica del cante flamenco y las narraciones disidentes
Authors: Homann Florian
Published: January 2024

Para poder el franquismo apropiarse del flamenco, era necesario suprimir la dimensión política de sus letras, al enfatizar su carácter puramente lírico y excluir los elementos narrativos para reforzar el discurso sobre un uso exclusivo de los antiguos versos de la tradición de la poesía popular. No obstante, con las nuevas letras compuestas por Francisco Moreno Galván y cantadas por José Menese surgieron, al final de la dictadura, las primeras voces periféricas con un marcado contenido político, ocultando sus mensajes, sin embargo, detrás de la interpretación musical y en nuevos textos que sólo se diferenciaban mínimamente de las letras tradicionales.

Authors: Reyes Martínez Antonio
Published: January 2024

El presente artículo revela las evocaciones y experiencias vitales de una serie de personajes cuyo punto de unión es Guadix durante los años 1936-1939, trienio durante el cual tiene lugar la guerra civil Española. Estos personajes, procedentes del ámbito del periodismo, la judicatura, la milicia o la literatura, llegaron hasta esta ciudad principalmente por motivaciones periodísticas o políticas. La información que nos legaron está relacionada directamente con el conflicto aunque aportan otros datos de carácter histórico, antropológico y poético de gran interés. El testimonio de todos ellos es de gran valor para enriquecer el conocimiento sobre este negro periodo de la historia de Guadix y de España.
La regeneración de la nación: la apropiación de la eugenesia por las protagonistas femeninas en El doctor Wolski: páginas de Polonia y Rusia (1894) de Sofía Casanova y “La torre verde” (1936, 1937) de Concha Espina
Authors: Pierce Angela
Published: January 2024

La eugenesia funcionó como un componente prominente en los proyectos nacionalistas de los siglos XIX y XX. Las implicaciones que tuvo para las mujeres se manifiestan en la novela El doctor Wolski: páginas de Polonia y Rusia (1894) de Sofía Casanova y el cuento “La torre verde” (1936, 1937) de Concha Espina. En este artículo argumento que en ambas obras las protagonistas se apropian de este sistema de control para conseguir sus aspiraciones nacionalistas. Defiendo que la eugenesia sirve a ambas autoras para insertarse en debates sobre el futuro de la nación.
Representación de la feminidad afroamericana en la ficción histórica estadounidense
Authors: Luis Maqueira Frida
Published: January 2024

El presente artículo analiza la construcción y significación de la mujer afroamericana transgresora y la ubicuidad de los discursos hegemónicos en la representación audiovisual contemporánea que tematiza la experiencia de la feminidad negra en el pasado. Entre estas producciones audiovisuales se encuentran Criadas y Señoras (2011), Figuras Ocultas (2016), Harriet (2019) y Una mujer hecha a sí misma (2020). Con un enfoque interdisciplinar que conjuga la epistemología del feminismo negro con la semiótica, planteamos una aproximación interpretativa sobre las contradicciones y ambivalencias de la imagen femenina racializada en biopics y ficciones históricas. Nuestra investigación concluye que la construcción de la feminidad afroamericana está experimentando un periodo de transición en la industria audiovisual estadounidense, entre un nuevo discurso autoconsciente y la tendencia a situarla en una otredad instrumentalizada y mistificada.

Polyphony in Vadim Salmanov's a cappella choral work
Authors: Koshkareva Natalya  Vladimirovna
Published: January 2024

The author examines in detail the revival of ancient choral genres and forms that corresponded to the aesthetic trend in the Russian musical culture of the second half of the twentieth century. The subject of the study is the stylistic features of Vadim Salmanov's polyphonic writing. The object of the research is the choral heritage of V. Salmanov's a cappella from the point of view of integrating new compositional techniques and polyphony. Special attention is paid to polyphonic techniques in the concert for the a cappella choir "Lebedushka". The author examines in detail the dramaturgy and architectonics of the choral concert "Lebedushka", as well as such aspects of the topic as: polyphonic methods, including imitation polyphony and heterophony, writing techniques of the twentieth century (sonorica, aleatorica). V. Salmanov's works clearly demonstrate that the genre of choral concert occupies one of the main places in the history of Russian choral creativity a cappella. It is proved that in the genre hierarchy, it is the choral concert that plays the leading role in terms of the number of artistic discoveries. The research methodology is based on the analysis of historical materials, a wide range of works by Russian musicologists concerning the history and theory of musical genres, polyphonic writing techniques and performing practice. Through the synthesis of research methods, including musicology and choral studies, the parameters of musical composition are revealed. The main conclusions of the conducted research are the paradigm of artistic connections of traditional polyphonic techniques with modern means of compositional writing. The novelty of the research lies in the fact that for the first time polyphonic techniques in modern choral composition are analyzed from the standpoint of musicology and choral studies. A special contribution of the author to the disclosure of the topic is the study of V. Salmanov's choral concert "Lebedushka", which had not previously been the object of special research from the point of view of polyphony. In this work, the presentation of musical material itself, as well as polyphonic methods of working with it, are conducted under the auspices of the search for a new sound characteristic of modern music. Attention is focused on the need to study the issues related to the role of polyphony in modern choral composition, due not only to the general artistic and historical potential of choral culture as a whole, but especially its great importance in modern musical art.

The object of the study is the charitable activities of Moscow entrepreneurs in the pre-revolutionary period. The subject of the study is the hospital named after the brothers P., A., V. Bakhrushins (representatives of the famous merchant dynasty). The authors consider in detail such issues as the contribution of Moscow entrepreneurship to the development of the city, for example, through assistance to the poor or health care support. Special attention is paid to what exactly the money given by Moscow merchants, industrialists or bankers to the city Duma was spent on. The funds invested in the hospital by the Bakhrushin brothers are considered as an example. The authors investigate how the money invested in the specified institution could have been spent and to what extent its activities justified these investments. To answer these questions, the authors studied the materials of the fund of the Central State Archive of Moscow – "Moscow City Duma and Council (1870-1917)". Among the materials found, there is information with a detailed description of the income received for the construction of the hospital, as well as final expenses and those subsequent approximate amounts that the hospital subsequently spent annually on the example of 1897. The methodological foundations of the study include the principle of historicism, the principle of objectivity and the principle of consistency. The main methods used in this study include the historical-genetic and retrospective method. The main conclusions of the study are that from the standpoint of today, the charitable activities of Moscow entrepreneurs at the turn of the XIX–XX centuries had a deep historical significance. Using the example of the Bakhrushin Brothers Hospital, it was proved that the huge funds donated by Moscow merchants for its creation were not spent in vain and fully corresponded to the activities of this institution. A special contribution of the authors to the study of the topic is the introduction of a new source into scientific circulation – a review of the activities of the Moscow City Duma and a report on the movement of office work in the office for 1897. The novelty of the study lies in a deeper study of the topic of charity of Moscow entrepreneurs, a more detailed study of sources (and the introduction of new materials into scientific circulation), as well as research on how specifically, the money was spent after it was given to the creation of specific institutions.

Based on 2021 data, from the results of problem identification, 16 health problems in Depok City were assessed. Maternal mortality was selected as a priority problem with 65 cases of maternal death or 155.58 per 100,000 live births. COVID-19 infection is the most common cause of maternal death. This study aims to provide an overview of maternal death circumstances in Depok because of prioritization following situation analysis of health problems. This situation analysis was conducted in Depok with a quantitative and qualitative approach analyzed using the PAHO-adapted Hanlon involving the participation of 17 respondents from the Health Office and the Head of the PHC in Depok. Primary and secondary quantitative data were collected using questionnaires, the Ministry of Health's Strategic Plan 2020-2024, Regional Medium-Term Development Plan 2016-2021, and Health Profile 2021. Qualitative data was obtained through interviews with respondents. Maternal mortality got a PAHO score of 42.37. This disease is a priority health problem in Depok. Most pregnant women had a high risk due to a lack of knowledge about pregnancy and a lack of participation in attending pregnancy class programs and pregnancy checks. Lack of family support for the health of pregnant women and there are also challenges in recording and reporting which must be based on an identity card so that cases sometimes do not live in the area but are recorded in the area. There are still some challenges in controlling maternal mortality. Promotive, preventive efforts such as conducting refresher training for health workers and volunteers, counseling, and presenting exciting material in pregnant women's classes to increase pregnant women's knowledge and family support. Cross-sector coordination and community leaders must be concerned with all parties to support and assist in screening pregnant women.

Enhancing artistic analysis through deep learning: a graphic art element recognition model based on SSD and FPT
Authors: Zhao Zixuan
Published: January 2024

For the analysis of art works, accurate identification of various elements of works through deep learning methods is helpful for artists to appreciate and learn works. In this study, we leverage deep learning methodologies to precisely identify the diverse elements within graphic art designs, aiding artists in their appreciation and learning process. Our approach involves integrating the attention mechanism into an enhanced Single Shot MultiBox Detector (SSD) model to refine the recognition of artistic design elements. Additionally, we improve the feature fusion structure of the SSD model by incorporating long-range attention mechanism information, thus enhancing target detection accuracy. Moreover, we refine the Feature Pyramid Transformer (FPT) attention mechanism model to ensure the output feature map aligns effectively with the requirements of object detection. Our empirical findings demonstrate that our refined approach outperforms the original SSD algorithm across all four evaluation metrics, exhibiting improvements of 1.52%, 1.89%, 3.09%, and 2.57%, respectively. Qualitative tests further illustrate the accuracy, robustness, and universality of our proposed method, particularly in scenarios characterized by dense artistic elements and challenging-to-distinguish categories within art compositions.
